Let's Get Married

Chapter 657: Take Care of Each Other Till the End of Their Lives

Rex notices her trembling and smiles softly. "Baby, don't tremble."

Lily closes her eyes gently. Taking a deep breath doesn't help at all. "I'm nervous."

"Me too."

In his three decades of life, he has never been so nervous before. His blood pressure has soared to its highest. If it goes any higher, he'll faint in any minute.

But there are some things he has to say.

"You look beautiful today."

A warm wind blows past Lily's ears, scratching her heart and making it itchy. She takes a deep breath again, exhales, and holds Rex's hand even tighter. "Let's go."

Rex's black eyes stare at Lily as if they contain the temperature of the four seasons. A single gaze of his is so deep and long-lasting. "Alright."

In the end, he takes his bride to the center of the stage. Two chasing lights shoot down. A foreign priest stands behind the altar with a long papyrus book in his hand.

"Now please exchange your wedding vows."

After the host finishes speaking, he walks away and leaves the entire stage to them.

The hall becomes silent. The priest has gray hair. He's wearing a pair of small round glasses and a white robe. The front of his robe is in joyous red.

He looks at the couple with a kind gaze. Perhaps because of his profession, the priest's body seems to be shrouded in a layer of warm yellow light, which adds warmth to his figure. "Are you ready? It's time

to exchange your wedding vows."

The language he speaks is not difficult to understand for Lily and Rex. They exchange glances and nod slightly.

The priest looks at Rex first. "Groom, please read after me. I, Rex, take you, Lily, to be my wife, my partner, and my only love."

Rex follows him. His heart and body are trembling, but the words he says are so firm.

"I will cherish our friendship and love you now, in the future, and forever."

"I will trust and respect you. I will laugh and cry with you."

"I will love you faithfully. Whether the future is good or bad, difficult or peaceful, I will spend it with you."

"For better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, I will always be there for you."

"I will give my life to you just like how I reach out my hand to let you hold it tight."

After saying those last words, the priest closes his eyes and prays with both hands in front of his chest. "God bless you."

After he finishes speaking, there is a burst of applause, especially from Bree who is sitting in the first row. Seeing this, she can't help but wipe her tears. All parents in the world want their children to find their true love. The couple has experienced so much and waited so long till this moment finally comes.

When it's Lily's turn, the priest repeats it. When she says "I will give my life to you", she chokes up a few times and pauses for a few seconds before saying the complete sentence.

No one can feel how she feels now. Only after experiencing those unforgettable memories can one understand what she is feeling. She doesn't want to cry but fails to hold back her tears.

After the vow, the entire hall is filled with applause. Everyone is deeply touched. The applause lasts for a long time, and many people below the stage burst into tears of happiness.

The host speaks up to take the ceremony to the next part, "Thank you for your blessings. I'm sure our bride and groom will feel them as well. Now please exchange your rings."

As everyone begins to search for the rings, a drone rises from the corner at the end of the hall. The silver body of the drone is tied with balloons and pink-and-white ribbons, which make it cute. There is a red velvet box hanging underneath the drone.

The drone is controlled by the staff below the stage and flies straight toward the stage. It stops beside Rex. Rex takes off the ring box and opens it. A pair of rings quietly lies in the middle of the box.

They don't look complicated. In fact, they can even be considered simple, much simpler than the one he used to propose.

Abby stands behind them. After Rex takes out the female ring, she takes over the box.

Rex looks down at the one-carat diamond in the middle of the ring and gently holds her right hand. He puts the ring steadily toward her ring finger. "The wedding ring is to be worn every day, so I didn't buy a larger one considering the convenience."

The guests thought Rex would say something affectionate. When they hear Rex's remarks, they burst into laughter. Even Lily can't help but giggles. "What are you talking about...?"

This is a wedding ring. Does he think she will consider the diamond too small?

Rex's heart softens when he sees Lily's pale finger wearing something that belongs to him. The tenderness in his eyes almost overflows as he looks at her. "I love you, my wife."

When Lily hears him calling her "my wife", it's as if a small white dove has flown into her heart. The dove is fluttering and flying, swinging her heart up and down. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

She turns around, takes the male ring from Abby's hand, and gently puts it on Rex's finger. The contentment is something she has never had before.

If she hasn't met him, she won't know what her life will be like. But she's sure that she won't be in a better state than now.

Even though nothing really happened in her last marriage, it still left her with a "married" tag. There were many objections, but Rex never retreated a bit. He hugged her without hesitation after knowing all of her past.

He saved her from such a life of suffering and put her in the bright sunshine, giving her the courage and right to embrace love again. He has always been her hero from beginning to end.

Some say a lucky person will receive the gentleness of the world, but Lily figures she doesn't need the gentleness of the whole world. She doesn't want much. It's enough as long as she has him.

The light from the chandelier above Rex's head falls on his shoulders. He is still so attractive today. The weather outside is good. The wind is gentle. Everything is just right, and so is the wedding.

"I love you too." She smiles brightly with her eyes moist, like flowers swaying in the spring breeze and stained with dew. "I love you very much."

How can she let him know about this endless love? Well, just let them take care of each other till the end of their lives.
