Chapter 23
On the contrary, Antonio next to Grace was particularly nervous.
He never dreamed that there would be a day when he would marry Grace.
After Grace “died,” he even entertained the idea of holding a wedding with her “ashes” in his arms.
The members of the Kaufman family were pressuring Antonio to death, but he finally dismissed the idea.
Now, his dream has finally come true. After so many years of loving her, he has brought the woman he also loves back home.
He would definitely treat her well in the future and never let her down.
As the emcee spoke, Grace and Antonio spoke to each other, exchanging the words they were going to say in the dialogue.
Originally, it was Grace who was supposed to speak, but she still handed the microphone to the man across from her.
Antonio had given countless speeches in front of people throughout his life, but none had been as nerve–wracking as this one.
Although he had prepared a draft beforehand, when the moment came for him to speak, he could only remember one sentence.
“Grace, I loved you until the last moment of my life.”
A simple sentence made Grace’s eyes well up with tears, and she kept crying.
Antonio, frightened, quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her, but inexplicably saw sadness in her eyes.
Yes. Grace felt very sad,
If it weren’t for those things that happened in the past, perhaps she would have really become Antonio’s bride and stayed with him.
But those things did happen, so much so that whenever she thinks about. them, it hurts so much that she finds it difficult to fall asleep.
Grace took a deep breath and took over the topic from Antonio’s hand.
“Antonio. I had a surprise that I wanted to give you right now.”
Upon hearing the words, Antonio’s eyes flickered with astonishment and delight.
But he didn’t know that soon he would be trapped in hell.
Soon, a staff member came up and took the USB flash drive from Grace’s hand, and inserted it into the computer.
Then, a video started playing on the blank screen in the middle of the wedding stage.
The evil deeds that Antonio had done to Grace during those three years were gradually presented on the screen.
The truly ruthless and disregardful of human life Antonio was gradually exposed in front of everyone.
Everything that followed was like a dream to Grace.
She saw the guests below the stage, first surprised and then discussing animatedly.
She also saw those journalists, who were initially puzzled and then went crazy pressing the shutter.
Finally, she saw Antonio, first surprised, then horrified, and finally desperately wanting to pick up the pile of flowers next to her and throw them at the screen.
“Turn them off, quickly turn them off!”
The scene became chaotic, unfolding before Grace like a slow–motion
shot.
The farce finally came to an end as Antonio was taken away by the police in handcuffs.
Before leaving, Antonio finally calmed down and calmly looked at the woman in a wedding dress.
“Why?”
He exhausted all his strength in just three short words.
Grace laughed, the first time she had laughed so happily, but the words she spoke were so harsh.
“Because I hated you, you destroyed me, so naturally I had to destroy you once as well.”
Antonio, let’s never see each other again in our lifetime.”
She lifted her headscarf, gracefully tossing it into the air.
In Antonio’s final memory, he only saw the graceful silhouette of Grace leaving.
“Grace!”
Grace never turned her head again.
Outside the wedding venue. Jenny handed the plane ticket to Grace, who was going to Boronto.
“Congratulations, you were free.”
Grace took the plane ticket from her hand and exclaimed, “Yes, I am finally free.”
From now on, she could only be Grace.
