I Hope You Will Never Regret

After everyone had lunch, the newlyweds walked to the Taylor family table. Their Grandpa was over the moon. He kissed his granddaughter in love on both cheeks and said, “You look lovely, Sweetheart. Welcome to the Taylor family.”

Avery smiled sweetly at her grandfather and thanked him. Then Grandpa Taylor hugged his precious grandson and said, “Nothing will upset me today.

I am so happy, my precious grandson.” Xavier smiled broadly and replied, “I am happy too, Grandpa.”

Xavier and his wife walked to their parents. His father kissed his brand-new daughter-in-law on both cheeks and hugged his son beaming with joy.

Their mother was overjoyed. She kissed her precious daughter-in-law and said, “You are stunning, Sweetheart, and I am glad that finally you are my daughter.” Avery smiled sweetly at her mother-in-law and replied, “Thank you, Mom.”

Then they went to the Martins family table. Her father kissed her and hugged his son-in-law smiling from ear to ear. Aunt Caia hugged and kissed Avery and said, “What a beautiful wedding ceremony, my stunning daughter.”

Avery smiled brightly and replied, “Thank you, Mom.” Then Aunt Caia hugged her precious nephew and said, “I wish you nothing but happiness on your journey, my favourite nephew.” Xavier smiled broadly and replied, “Thank you, Mom.”

Their Godfather and Godmother hugged and kissed them. Grandma Rose was overjoyed. She had tears in her eyes. She wished her sister was still alive to witness the Goodness of the Lord.

The MC, Reece Ford, smiled and said, “Let’s clap our hands for the father of the bride as he comes to deliver the speech.” The guests clapped their hands.

Mr Martins walked to the stage and thanked his daughter and his son-in-law. He also thanked his in-laws, then he sat down. Then the MC asked the father of the groom to come onto the stage. The guests clapped their hands.

Mr Taylor smiled brightly and said, “I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Martins family for raising such a beautiful and capable daughter. Son, you chose well.” Then he walked to his seat and sat down.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

The MC thanked his brother-in-law, and then he asked the band to play a dancing song. Isaac and Ethan sang, and then the newlyweds went to the stage and danced.

Avery looked at her husband with eyes full of love and said, “I love you so much, my handsome husband.” Xavier smiled broadly and replied, “I am so happy, my stunning wife, and I love you more.” Then he kissed her on the lips.

Avery danced with her father and Xavier danced with his mother. Then Avery danced with Grandpa Taylor. She also danced with Grandpa Basil, Grandpa Ford, God Grandpa, Paul Evans, and her Godfather, Brad Shelton.

She also danced with her big brother Siyabonga Cele and her younger brothers, Ethan and Logan.

Xavier danced with Aunt Caia, Godmother Mia, Grandma Rose, Grandma Ford, God grandma Suzie, and Aunt Bridge. Also, the guests enjoyed themselves on the dancing floor.

At 3 pm, the couple cut the cake and feed each other. The Maid of honour and the bridesmaids took their baskets and started serving the guests the cake.

At that moment, Aunt Elizabeth and Lily were at His Grace Hotel reception area. The receptionist smiled and said, “Good day, Madam. How may I help you?”

Elizabeth looked at the receptionist and replied, “Could you please tell us where Xavier Taylor and Avery Martins’ wedding ceremony is taking place?”

The receptionist looked at them puzzled and asked, “And you are?” Elizabeth smiled and replied, “I am the mother of the bride.”

At that moment, Xavier and Avery were walking to the Taylor family table with round cakes in their hands. They knelt in front of Mrs Taylor and Avery handed the cake to her. Her mother-in-law kissed her on both cheeks and thanked her.

Then they walked to the Martins family table and knelt in front of Aunt Caia. Xavier handed the cake to her. Aunt Caia kissed her nephew and thanked her.

The receptionist looked at her and asked, “Who is the lady who just received the cake from the groom? Is she not the mother of the bride?”

Elizabeth was shocked when she saw Xavier and Avery kneeling in front of her ex-husband, August and the young beautiful lady.

The MC, Reece Ford, smiled brightly and said, “Congratulations Mrs Martins, for getting a brand-new son-in-law.”

Elizabeth froze when she heard the MC’s words. She nearly fainted with anger. When did August get remarried? Why did Aiden hide that important information from her?

She looked at the receptionist coldly and asked, “Where is the wedding taking place?” The receptionist smirked and asked, “Didn’t you say you are the mother of the bride? How come you are not invited to the wedding of your daughter?”

At that moment, His Grace Hotel manager walked to them and asked, “What is going on here?”

The receptionist told him that the lady was claiming to be the mother of the bride, but she didn’t know where the wedding ceremony was taking place.

The hotel manager scoffed and said, “Please show me the wedding invitation card, Madam.”

Elizabeth couldn’t show them the wedding invitation card because she didn’t have it. Lily tore up the wedding invitation card because it was an eyesore.

Then he called the security guards and asked them to escort the fake mother of the bride and her lackey outside. One of the receptionists took a photo of them and posted it on the internet with the caption ‘Fake mother of the bride.’

Lily took her phone and dialed Aiden’s number, but it didn’t go through. They decided to go to His Glory Hotel maybe someone would tell them the wedding venue.

At His Glory Hotel, the receptionist laughed out loud when Elizabeth told them that she was the mother of the bride. They just ignored her and watched the wedding ceremony on the television.

Fortunately, she wasn’t escorted by the security guards. She felt humiliated and embarrassed. They went home defeated.

The living room smelled like a tavern. Bottles of strong alcohol ciders and whiskey were lying on the floor. Brutal fruit cans and bottles of Heineken were on the luxurious sofas.

Aunt Elizabeth went to the kitchen to fetch a black plastic bag and started cleaning the living room. Lily switched on the television and watched the wedding ceremony.

She was in awe when she saw Avery’s wedding dress. Her aunt came back with a mop and a bucket of water and chased Lily out of the living room.

At the wedding, Xavier and Avery went to each table and handed the exquisite gold case engraved with their names to the guests.

Nestled in the exquisite gold case were thirty heart-shaped pink pills. The guests were over the moon. They thanked the couple profusely.

The MC smiled at the ladies and said, “The beautiful bride is going to throw her banquet, single ladies who are still hopeful to meet their better half, please come in front.”

Instead of throwing her bouquet to the single ladies, she gave each lady the stem of Juliet Rose. The ladies were over the moon when they saw diamonds sparkling on the rose.

The newlyweds bade their parents a farewell then Xavier took his wife in bridal style and walked to the helicopter. The helicopter took them to King Shaka International Airport.

Xavier was taking his lovely wife to the Maldives for their honeymoon. Two weeks later they would also visit Hawaii.
