The guests were touched by the young couple’s love. After hearing Jared’s confession, as she sat


    among the guests, Selena realized how much of a fool she was when she tried seducing Jared in the


    beginning.


    Meanwhile, Josephine looked at the bride on the stage, astonished at how beautiful she was. The bride


    was also very mysterious, for the media hadn’t figured out her identity or background even until that


    point.


    Just then, she met the gaze of a certain best man on the stage. Even though there was quite a


    distance between them, she could sense that Ethan was looking at her.


    Luke noticed that Ethan had his eyes on Josephine, so he immediately reached out vexedly and put his


    arm on the back of Josephine’s chair, deliberately getting into a more intimate position with Josephine.


    The man on the stage darkened his gaze. Just then, the host announced that the bride would be


    tossing the bouquet soon, so thedies who wanted to catch some good luck could start getting ready


    to catch the bouquet.


    “Go ahead, Joey.” Heidi nudged her daughter, insisting that she go and catch the bouquet for good


    luck. Selena, who was sitting opposite them, was being urged by Olivia as well. “Hurry up, Lena! What


    are you waiting for?”


    When Heidi saw her daughter feigning ignorance and staying silent, she got physical as she pushed


    Josephine into a standing position. Josephine turned around and asked exasperatedly, “Mom, do I


    have to go?”


    The other girls were already scrambling to line up at the empty space in front of the stage. At that


    moment, Ellen waved toward the girls in greeting as the music yed, then turned her back toward


    them and got ready to toss the bouquet.


    Ethan looked at the girls gathered below the stage, then naturally caught sight of the girl who


    reluctantly walked toward the edge. His gaze locked onto her face. Everyone else tiptoed, fearing that


    they wouldn’t be able to catch the bouquet.


    As for Josephine, it was clear from her expression that she didn’t want to catch it. Just then, Ellen


    tossed the bouquet. Since she exerted more force, the bouquet in her hands soared lightly and easily,


    then traced an arc in the air before descending.


    Josephine was standing at the edge, but two other girls behind her were enthusiastically trying to move


    forward by pushing her. Selenal was one of them. She didn’t care about her identity anymore; she


    wanted to catch the bouquet and obtain the blessing from the heavens so that she could be the next


    bride.


    At that moment, Josephine felt something hit her head. She almost instinctively reached out, and


    Ellen’s bouquetnded right in her arms.


    The other girls couldn’t even catch it while tiptoeing, but as if fate had decreed it, the bouquet fell


    squarely into Josephine’s hands. Onstage, Ethan was stunned, and he couldn’t help but curve his lips


    into a smile.


    Josephine held the bouquet in her hands, receiving looks of admiration from the girls around her.


    Selena, however, was filled with jealousy and hatred. She had worked so hard, but she couldn’t catch


    the bouquet in the end. How did Josephine do it?


    Josephine didn’t know either. She looked up. and met Ellen’s gaze on the stage. When Ellen. smiled


    gently at her, her heart warmed up instantly as she held the bouquet and said to Ellen, “Thank you.”


    Immediately after that, Josephine felt someone else’s profound and captivating gaze. She looked and


    saw that Ethan was staring at her with a half-smile on his face.


    Josephine felt her heart skip a beat as she held the bouquet and turned around, returning to her seat at


    once. When Heidi saw that her daughter had actually caught the bouquet, she knew that it was a good


    sign, signifying that her daughter could be the next bride. Simrly, Luke was overjoyed as he praised


    Josephine, “You’re amazing, Joey.”

    Josephine treated the bouquet in her arms like some treasure. It wasn’t because of anything else; she


    just thought it was too beautiful, so she should care for it as much as possible. Ellen and Willow went


    backstage, then changed into a different set of dresses for the remainder of the night.


    The food was then served, and it turned out to be a sumptuous feast. It had been a long time since


    Olivia and Selenast had food as expensive as this. Even though they tried their best to suppress it,


    their table manners betrayed their identities.


    “Try this, Lena.” Olivia helped herself to some food first, but fearing that her daughter wouldn’t get to


    taste it, she ced some on Selena’s te as well. Every time a new dish was served, Olivia would be


    the first to dig in.
