Together Apart: Her White Moonlight Has Returned Too-Chapter 141: Attending the Ceremony, Wedding Snatching?

Chapter 141: Chapter 141: Attending the Ceremony, Wedding Snatching?

Jane Shea grabbed Vera Yves’s arm along with the motion, "Alright."

Vera led her to a round table, and Jane whispered in her ear, "Vera, do you remember what I told you?"

The smile on Vera’s face grew somewhat stiff.

Jane sat in the chair, smiling at her, her beautiful eyes still shining with confidence.

Vera felt an inexplicable sense of fear.

Vera quickly regained her composure, stopped looking at her, and walked over to Miles Monroe. The two continued to smile and toast people, as if nothing had happened.

Jane, on the other hand, drank glass after glass, as if she were punishing herself.

If she had accepted his proposal then, she would be the one next to him now!

If he truly loved her, how could he have so easily gotten together with Vera Yves? Miles Monroe, you liar...

Miles’s gaze fell on her, his dark eyes showing a hint of remorse.

Vera noticed his distraction, and though she felt uneasy, she kindly said, "Miles, you should go talk to her."

Miles held the hand she was pulling back, his voice firm, "Vera, today I won’t leave you."

Vera’s originally anxious heart instantly calmed at his words. He was her Miles, and from this moment on, they were each other’s most important person. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Finally, Miles made a call, and soon someone came to pick up Jane Shea, who was already drunk beyond recognition upon leaving.

The engagement banquet was successfully completed, and the wedding day was approaching day by day.

The two eventually bought a marital home near Miles Monroe’s law office, a duplex apartment with a large area, already renovated but not yet furnished.

Miles was still very busy, so Zoe Monroe accompanied Vera to buy furniture.

Zoe asked curiously, "So will you stay at The Monroe Family home after the wedding?"

The newly bought furniture surely has odors, so staying there is not viable at the moment.

"I’ll move to the apartment where Miles is currently living. We’ll move to the new house next year."

"Isn’t his current apartment good enough? Why the trouble of moving back and forth?"

Vera smiled, "After getting married, it’s our home, and it’s only natural to decorate it ourselves."

Looking at the smile on Vera’s face, Zoe exclaimed, "Vera, marrying someone you’ve liked for so many years — must be blissful, right?"

Vera nodded, Miles was right; they could be even better.

Returning to the apartment in the evening, Vera ran into Walter Lowell downstairs, who looked at her courteously, "Miss Yves, there’s something I’d like to ask your help with."

Half an hour later, Vera arrived at the villa where she and Winston Valentine had once lived.

Once inside, she found no difference from when she had left; had Cecilia Vaughn not moved in?

Walter brought her to the backyard where there was a greenhouse filled with the plants she used to care for. Winston stood among them, watering the plants.

His hand was visibly trembling.

Walter had already left the scene at some point.

Winston put down the watering can and turned to look at her, "I apologize for making you come all this way."

The bandage on his head had been removed, and he looked much thinner.

Vera shook her head, "You rescued me; it’s no trouble at all."

"Then you shouldn’t refuse to help me recover." Winston stepped closer to her, raising his right hand, "After I woke up, this hand has been uncontrollable, weak, and my memory keeps fluctuating. Sometimes I forget things."

"I can... recommend doctors to you."

Winston looked at her with icy eyes, "Vera, you owe me this."

"I’m getting married..."

"You don’t need to remind me!"

Vera understood she had no grounds to refuse, "Can it wait until after the wedding?"

"Of course." Winston lifted her chin, gazing at her increasingly beautiful face, but Vera slapped his hand away.

Winston said nonchalantly, "We were once a married couple, don’t forget to send me an invitation."

"What would you even do there?" Vera asked warily.

Winston smiled, looking into her eyes, "I’m there to witness, not to steal the bride, right?"

After leaving the villa, Winston’s gaze lingered in her mind, his calmness unnerving her.

A few days later, Warren Valentine was taken away by the police for investigation due to involvement in an illegal fundraising case, and Winston returned to The Valentine Group.

Meanwhile, The Valentine Family publicly announced the wedding of Winston and Cecilia Vaughn.

Vera’s heart, which had been hanging, finally settled upon hearing the news of their marriage.

A week before the wedding, the wedding gown designed by Cleo Sutton for Vera was completed, more exquisite and grand than the design draft.

A strapless gown with a cinched waist that revealed Vera’s beautiful collarbone, featuring a long tail adorned with countless petals, shimmering in the sunlight.

Seeing Vera in the gown, Zoe was amazed, "Makes me really want to get married!"

The wedding was set on an island, where the temperature was as warm as spring.

Two days before the wedding, everyone arrived on the island, with separate bachelor and bachelorette parties for a pre-wedding celebration, and everyone drank quite a bit.

Zoe and Linda Young were on each side of Vera.

With so much alcohol in them, there were no boundaries in topics discussed, and someone looked at Vera with curiosity, "Vera, Counselor Monroe is so serious at his law office, is he also serious in bed?"

Dizzy, Vera thought of his increasingly intense kisses, though he had yet to touch her, and inexplicably remembered Jane’s words.

She shook her head to stop herself from overthinking.

The person assumed she meant Miles wasn’t serious and laughed, "I knew it."

The crowd burst into laughter, with someone discussing experiences with various boyfriends in bed vividly.

Zoe, drunk, asked drowsily, "Vera, is my cousin better, or Winston Valentine better? Surely my cousin, right?"

Dizzy, Vera thought the man on the bed was always domineering; he found endless pleasure in tormenting her.

Vera didn’t want to recall, yet those memories seemed to infiltrate her intoxicated mind, leading to the sight of his bloodied face, urging her to shake her head again — no more thinking!

Zoe saw her shaking her head, grumbling dissatisfied, "Unbelievable! My cousin isn’t as good as him! Absurd!"

The day before the wedding, family friends arrived on the island.

Before the wedding, Vera and Miles were forbidden from seeing each other and could only communicate via phone.

Miles sent her tons of jokes to ease her nerves, making Vera laugh out loud, wondering where he’d gathered all those jokes.

Hannah Hayes entered the room, pulling Vera to a deserted corner and whispered in her ear, "Vera, why is Winston Valentine here? What does he want?"
