Martha had noticed a positive change since Arthur was smiling more than before. She looked at Sophia with gratitude as she was the one who had helped him to recover.
“Mr. Lloyd, I cannot thank you enough.” She was thankful for Richard’s help.
“Well, I couldn’t have done it by myself. Elliot and his wife helped out too,” Richard responded humbly, making Elliot think that he was being too humble since Richard was the mastermind behind it.
Meanwhile, Elliot merely helped to analyze the situation.
“Are we going to resume the wedding ceremony? Why don’t we hold another wedding tomorrow after doing some preparations?” Martha sighed since it was noon and the guests had been waiting for half a day. She’d rather have them stay
back a few more days and have another wedding tomorrow.
“Sure, you can call the shots.” Arthur didn’t mind as long as Sophia was his bride.
Soon after, Martha apologized to the guests and announced that there would be another wedding tomorrow, hoping that they would stay back for one more day. The guests responded positively to her request as they were happy to attend the wedding the next day.
Hearing that, Anastasia was delighted for Sophia as she had finally found her happiness.
Sophia then walked down from the altar and stood next to Arthur. Martha suddenly pulled her into her arms and begged for forgiveness. “Child, I was wrong previously. Would you forgive me?”
“Grandma, I’ve never blamed you before.” Sophia’s eyes welled up with tears. Tears of happiness rolled down Martha’s cheeks. She finally realized how she had turned a blind eye toward Sophia’s kind nature when it should’ve been the main criteria that her granddaughter-in-law
needed to possess.
“Tomorrow, I will throw a grand wedding for you and Arthur. Once we are back, we will have another wedding.” Martha gushed.
“Thank you, Grandma.”
When it was lunch time, the guests were ushered to the banquet hall to have their lunch. As Anastasia walked over, Sophia went up to her and gave her a big hug. “Anastasia, thank you for being by my side the entire time and for bringing me here. All of these wouldn’t have happened if not for you.”
“This is the least I can do for you. I just want you to be happy.” Anastasia patted her back and smiled. She was happy that she was able to help out.
“I’m really happy.” Sophia pursed her lips as tears of joy rolled down the cheeks.
Meanwhile, Arthur went to the side and hugged two of his best friends. Their relationship was as strong as ever, and they’d always have each other’s backs.
At the same time, the police had already arrived at Johnny’s house and he was apprehended since he was being faced with legal charges. Likewise, Vera and Emily were brought to the police station to give their statements.
As Vera sat in the police car, tears of regret rolled down her cheeks. Her greed had brought the demise of her whole family, and the husband that she was proud of had to pay the price. Their future was bleak; it was highly probable that Johnny, who they hugely depended on, would be imprisoned for life.
She couldn’t imagine how life would be after being chased out of the country since they had been under the Weiss Family’s care and protection all along. Meanwhile, Emily cried so much that she almost passed out as she had lost everything in just a day. Her ostentatiousness and stupidity seemed to have accentuated Sophia’s kindness and beauty in front of Martha.
Of course, Emily had never thought that Sophia was someone kind since it was her
presence which ruined everything. She
had a strong urge to kill Sophia.
Besides, Richard didn’t have the right to release the recording that was obtained secretly as it was unlawful.
Meanwhile, Martha, who was resting in the manor, was feeling lethargic after a long day. She had to take two antihypertensive pills to reduce her blood pressure.
“That family really got on my nerves. How dare they do such a thing to my grandson!” The thought of it really made her blood boil. She was regretful that she hadn’t noticed Arthur’s abnormal behavior earlier on.
At this moment, Jackson, who was Johnny’s partner, walked in and sat before Martha. He was ready to answer any questions that she had.
