Her Billionaire's Attorney [R-18] [UNEDITED]

Chapter 37

IT WAS THE DAY she's waiting for and the day that Raven and her will getting married. She looked at the mirror to see her reflection as she wears the lower back, with beaded strips designed and a simple wedding dress in a lace style. It was also perfectly fitted to her as what her friend Trina told her. Hindi siya makapaniwala na sa isang iglap lang ay nakahanda ang lahat ayon na rin sa plano ni Raven para sa kaniya. Napuna na rin niyang may curve na rin ang katawan niya nang dahil na rin sa pagkain niya ng tama. Her hair was in a fishtail braid in style with a white flower place on it while holding a white wedding bouquet. A dream come true with him.

"You're gorgeous!"

Bigla siyang napalingon sa baritong boses na iyon. It was her father, Tino, who was in her room. She was shocked but surprised that the man who had taken care of her for a long time was already there on her wedding day.

"Dad!" She walks closer to him and embraces the not-so-old man but superb at his age.

"Oh, Kreisha! My princess!"

"Dad, you are here!"

"Of course! I will not miss my daughter's wedding day!"

Kumalas siya sa pagkakayap dito. "I'm sorry, Dad. Alam kong nasaktan kita sa pag-alis ko." Namuo na naman ang mga luha niya sa mga mata sa labis na kasiyahan.

"It's okay. I understand. Ang mahalaga ay pinili mo ang landas kung saan ka magiging masaya. And I'm really proud of you."

"Dad..." She was in deep emotion again when she saw her dad's face, which drew mixed emotions.

"Enjoy your wedding day with him. He is a good man."

"You're the second person who told me that, Dad. But my brother Kameron never said that to me. Mukhang hindi na ako aasang magkakabati pa ang dalawang iyon."

"You're wrong. You're brother told me and convinced me to accept Raven as your soon-to-be husband."

"He did?"

"Of course! Your brother really loves you that's why he's being overprotective. Nalulungkot kami subalit kailangan namin tanggapin na kailangan mo na rin magkaroon ng sariling pamilya."

"Dad..." Muli niya itong niyakap. Labis-labis ang nararamdaman niyang kasiyahan ngayong kumpleto na ang mga mahal niya sa buhay sa araw ng kaniyang kasal.

Matapos ang mainit na tagpo nila ng kaniyang tinuring na ama, bumaba na sila upang magsimula na rin ang gaganapin na kasal.

IT WAS a wedding in the vast garden of Muchelli Mansion, and everything was in place. The wedding was designed with perfect white decorations. Flowers were everywhere, and there was music, a red carpet, people around, and the man she loved who was waiting for her. Her heart started beating as fast as she felt the moment, like a bright day in Portugal.

"He's waiting for our princess," Tino said.

"Let's go," Juan Carlos replied.

The two men accompanied her to walk through the red carpet and brought her to the man waiting for her in front. Everyone poured with emotions as a lovely voice sang the beautiful song. She stared at the man wearing his perfect cream wedding suit with a great smile drawn on his face. The almighty grants her wishes and prays for everlasting love with him. Raven! I will love you forever.

And now, she's in front of him.

"She's yours. Congratulations, Raven!" Her father, Tino, said while shaking hands.

"Thank you!"

"Ikaw na ang bahala sa unica hija namin," dugtong ni Juan Carlos.

Sumulyap si Raven sa kaniya. "I will."

"Kreisha..."

Napasulyap siya sa kaniyang kapatid. "Kuya Kameron!" She embraces him.

"Congratulations, my big sister."

"Thank you." Sabay kumalas na rin siya rito. Nahagip niya ang lalaking pamilyar sa kaniya na naroon din sa tabi ni Raven.

Zack Kraven, the best man in her groom, smiled at her. After a while, they face the first step of the wedding together, and the judge will start his common-law wedding ceremony.

"Let's start. Ranzel Venecio and Kreisha Severino, today you enter as individuals. Still, you will leave here as husband and wife, blending your lives, expanding your family ties, and embarking upon the grandest adventure of human interaction. The story of your life together is still yours to write. All those present have come to witness and celebrate your love and commitment this day - eager to be a part of the story not yet told. Ranzel and Kreisha, remember to treat yourselves and each other respectfully and often remind yourselves of what brought you together. Take responsibility for making the other feel safe, and prioritize the tenderness, gentleness, and kindness your connection deserves. When frustration, difficulty, and fear assail your relationship, as they threaten all relationships at some time or another, remember to focus on what is right between you, not just the part that seems wrong. In this way, you can survive when clouds drift across the face of the sun in your lives, remembering that just because you may lose sight of it for a moment does not mean the sun has gone away. And, if each of you takes responsibility for the quality of your life together, it will be marked by abundance and delight. Repeat after me," tukoy nito kay Raven.

The judge started to speak, and Raven repeated after him while facing her glimpse.

"I, Ranzel Venecio, take you, Kreisha Severino, to be my wife, life partner, and one true love. I will cherish our union and love you more each day than I did the day before. I will trust and respect you, laugh with and cry with you, loving you faithfully through good times and bad, regardless of the obstacles we may face together. I give you my hand, heart, and love from this day forward for as long as we both shall live."

Bumaling naman sa kanya ang judge. "Repeat after me."

"I, Kreisha Severino, take you, Ranzel Venecio, to be my husband, life partner, and one true love. I will cherish our union and love you more each day than I did the day before. I will trust and respect you, laugh with and cry with you, loving you faithfully through good times and bad, regardless of the obstacles we may face together. I give you my hand, heart, and love from this day forward for as long as we both shall live."

"Wedding rings are made precious by our wearing them. Your rings say that even in your uniqueness, you have chosen to be bound together. Let these rings also be a sign that love has substance as well as soul, a present as well as a past, and that, despite its occasional sorrows, love is a circle of happiness, wonder, and delight. May these rings always remind you of the vows you have taken here today."

Kinuha ni Raven ang wedding ring saka marahan nitong kinuha ang kamay niya. "I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and faithfulness. As I place it on your finger, I commit my heart and soul to you."

Halo-halo ang emosyon niya habang isinusuot ang wedding ring kung saan naroon din ang naunang ibinigay nito sa kaniya. Matapos nitong isuot iyon ay siya naman ang maglalagay ng kapares sa daliri nito.

"I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and faithfulness. As I place it on your finger, I commit my heart and soul to you," she said when placing it on his finger.

"Today, you enter as individuals, but you will leave here as husband and wife, blending your lives, expanding your family ties, and embarking upon the grandest adventure of human interaction. The story of your life together is still yours to write. All those present have come to witness and celebrate your love and commitment this day - eager to be a part of the story not yet told. By the authority vested in me by the State of Vhino Verde, Portugal, I pronounce you Husband and Wife. You may now kiss your bride!"

Narinig niya ang hiyawan ng mga taong naroon habang nagpapalakpakan ang mga ito.

"Kiss! Kiss!" Korong wika ng mga naroon sa paligid nila.

Raven faced her and slowly grabbed her waist. Wala na itong sinabi kung 'di inilapit na lamang ang mukha nito sa kaniya saka siya hinalikan sa labi. He kissed her gently with love as the people around them clapped their hands again. Confetti and flowers burst from their surroundings, and the faces of the others were full of grateful happiness and support for their love. Wala na akong ibang hihilingin pa!
