Chapter 214 – For You for Me (3)
How much time has passed The morning sunlight streamed in from outside the window and hit Linea’s face. The eyelids of her were lifted, revealing wet eyes.
‘Dream…….’
I had a strange dream last night.
In the dream, Theorard and Esily were walking hand in hand.
Linea, who was glad to see the two of them, ran to her, but she couldn’t get any closer. No matter how hard she ran and ran, she could n’t move a single step from her place her.
As she watched the two gradually drifting apart, Linea opened her mouth to her uneasis of her, but she couldn’t bring herself to speak out.
Theorad and Essilie, who chatted and laughed from time to time, seemed happy enough even without their confidence.
He couldn’t muster the courage to intervene between the two. It was because Theorard did not seem to accept him as an uninvited guest.
“…….”
Linea, who blinked her eyes blankly, raises her body her. She let out a cold breath and leaned her body against the back of her bed.
The silver hair flowing down her shoulders her shines brilliantly in the sunlight. Slowly calming her pounding heart, Linea pursed her lips without her strength her.
“Theorard…….”
She actually knew that if it were Theo Rad, she would never abandon herself. That she would not be told to go back to the Great Forest.
Didn’t he realize how special Theorard was to him not too long ago, when he was forgiven for his past misdeeds?
‘However…….’
One disturbing thing was that Theorard’s attitude toward him seemed to remain sympathetic.
Is it really right to live beside Theorard’s compassionate heart his as a shield? Is longing for a love that won’t come true really the road to happiness…….
I bit her lip hard at the gloomy thought. The watery, shimmering sight makes the sunlight shimmer by the window.
Smart-
Knocking sound then. As Linea hastily wiped her eyes, Harvey’s voice came from outside her door.
– Are you there?
Lynea couldn’t answer. The moment she opens her mouth, she’ll find out what she’s been acting like a fool.
It wasn’t something she couldn’t understand. Harvey was aware of the plight that Linea was going through, so she didn’t bother waiting for her answer to her.
─ As you know, the ceremony begins at noon. But if you don’t want to, I won’t tell you to attend. To the head of the household and the young lady…….
“I.”
Grabbing the blanket, Linea spat out her words her.
“I will take care of it.”
After a moment of hesitation, Harvey turned around and walked away without a word. He felt sorry for her, but he had nothing more to say than he refused.
*
Noon, banquet hall.
Catching the gaze of the guests crammed into their seats, Theorard adjusted his dressing with trembling hands. Perhaps because she is wearing a tailcoat she is not used to, her tension is multiplied.
“Chairman. Do you see anything strange about me?”
Harvey, who was officiating at Theorard’s question, let out a laugh. His tall height and handsome face His pull off the tailcoat perfectly, and I thought it was a pointless worry.
“There’s nothing strange about it, so now get ready to greet the bride.”
“Wait, wait a minute. I’m still ready-“
“There will be a position for the bride you’ve been waiting for!”
As David shouted loudly, the servants who had been waiting at the entrance began to open the door of the church hall.
“Chairman…… !”
Theorard gasped, but Harvey only gave a relaxed smile.
“It is not a good idea to shut the bride down at the door. Also, this is not the time for you to be angry with me.”
Theorard, who was about to retort, shut his mouth. There was some truth in David’s words his.
Accepting Harvey’s opinion, Theorard took a deep breath to calm him down and slowly looked back.
From the light-drenched entrance of the chapel, Esily with a bouquet is seen approaching with her father her.
Essili, wearing her white wedding dress with her veil on, was walking lightly with a shy smile.
“Ah…”
It was so beautiful that Theorard was stunned before he knew it.
If there was an angel who lost its wings, would n’t it resemble Silly right in front of her eyes? Seeley’s appearance of her was exceptionally beautiful when she entered her wedding hall to the extent that I could inadvertently think that way.
Still, I shouldn’t continue to lose my mind. Theorard, who had barely come to his senses his, bowed his head respectfully toward Leoberg.
“Your Excellency Count.”
Leoberg, who stopped at a distance of about a step, was greeted with a solemn attitude.
“Okay. I believe in you and marry my daughter, but there are a few things you should keep in mind. First of all, no matter what happens in our married life in the future, I must not make my daughter cry. Also, if something comes up that is difficult for me to solve alone, I will not make tough demands on my daughter.
“Father.”
Cheer. Esily looked at her with a displeased look on her face, and Leo Berg stopped her words. Leoberg let out a sigh of embarrassment and held out his hand to Theorad.
“Anyway, take good care of my daughter. Son-in-law.”
“I also wish you well in the future. Father-in-law.”
Theorard grabs Leoberg’s hand. Leoberg could not hide his tingling feelings at his at the determination he felt in his tightly gripped hands his.
‘Now they call me father-in-law.’
I never thought I would hear the sound of a craftsman from this naive guy. It was clear that a lot of years had passed.
‘It seems like yesterday that I was just a child…….’
The two children who had promised to be engaged with young faces had grown up before they knew it.
‘I wish I could have seen this scene with Wellian…….’
I miss my dear friend who passed away early today. He had no time to be immersed in sentimentality. The main character at this ceremony was not himself, but the daughter he loved and the son of a close friend.
“Make my daughter happy. You should be happy too.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
I don’t know about anyone else, but if it’s Theorad, I’ll be able to trust it. Leoberg lightly tapped Theorard on the back of his hand and moved away with a smile.
When Leoberg stepped away, Theorard and Esily’s eyes naturally met. The two looked at each other’s faces for a while and smiled shyly as if they had promised.
“You are especially beautiful today. It’s blinding.”
“The same goes for Lord Theorard.”
How can he not fall for Theo Rad, who usually doesn’t dress up well, when he is dressed so nicely. Just looking at him made his heart beat incessantly, making it difficult.
After struggling to calm her breathing, Seely took a step forward and placed her shoulder to shoulder with Theo Rad.
The two nodded as if they were ready, and David, who was smiling happily, proceeded with the ceremony.
“Now that the bride and groom have gathered together, let’s proceed with the wedding vows. First, Theorad Deharm, the groom, please raise her head and tell me you are ready.”
Theorard, who was named after him, said, straightening his back.
“Yes. I am ready.”
“Good. So please answer my simple question. Can you swear that you will cherish and love Esily Pelgaroine, her future wife her, more than all her life her.”
“I swear on my all.”
Her graceful voice her resonates in the hall without being excessive. Harvey, who confirmed Theorard’s feelings of her, looked at Esily this time.
“Can you swear that Essilie Pelgarin, her bride her, will accept her husband’s heart her, devote her whole life to her husband her, and show her undying love her?”
“Yes. Until the day my life ends, I will look only at her husband her.”
“Good. Since the two of them are connected, we will add solidarity to each other’s oath through the wedding ring.”
When Havid looks back and notices, Bainen, who has been waiting in the corner, walks out. She seemed uncomfortable wearing a suit rather than armor, but her expression kept her a smile.
“Congratulations on your marriage. Bocchan, young lady.”
Stopping a short distance from her, Beinun bowed politely and opened the ring case in her hand. A pair of diamond-encrusted wedding rings can be seen shining brightly.
What to do now is clear. Theorard, who took out the ring first, held up Esily’s slender hand her.
The ring finger, which always had an engagement ring on it, is bare today. Theorard whispered softly as he placed the wedding ring on Esily’s ring finger her.
“Esley. I am loving you. It will not change in the past, now and in the future.”
It’s so natural, but I’m rather willing to say it. With a smile and a nod of her head, Esily took out her remaining ring her and put it on Theorard’s ring finger her.
“Me too. Theorard.”
As the sweet whispers passed, the orchestra that was waiting at a distance began to play sweet classical music. With smiles on the faces of the guests, Harvey raised his voice without hiding his overflowing emotions.
“Since they pledged their love in the presence of numerous guests and friends and exchanged rings as a token, I will announce in the name of Karatias, the god of light, that the two have officially become husband and wife!”
After David’s declaration of marriage, thunderous applause erupts from all directions. Leoberg, who was sitting nearby, was also applauding while wiping away tears.
The sound of congratulations on the wedding reverberated here and there, but the two did not look back at the ceremony. He was just feeling the rush of excitement as he put his spouse in his eyes.
“Now, really…….”
The hand holding the bouquet trembles slightly. She pinched the back of her hand, wondering if it was a dream, and looked up at Theo Rad in disbelief.
“Have I become Sir Theorard’s wife?”
It feels both sad and cute that she still can’t accept the reality even after her marriage declaration is over. Theorard murmured softly, passing the veil over Esily’s shoulder behind her.
“Okay. It’s like a dream to me too, but don’t worry, you’re not dreaming.”
“But, to think that this day would come…….”
You can’t just watch the person you love deny the reality. Theorard leaned down unexpectedly and grabbed Essilly by the hamstrings and waist of her and hugged her.
At the same time, cheers spread from the surroundings. Aesili, who had been embraced by Theo Rad in an instant, blinked at her in a rather bewildered mood.
“…… Theorard?”
Theorard looked down at Esily and smiled kindly.
“If you want, I’ll hug you like this every morning. Do you feel that you have become a couple now?”
A low-pitched, friendly voice pierces your ears. In her moment of silence, Silly rested her head on Theorard’s shoulder, her gleeful face her.
“Thank you, Theorard…….”
Thank you so much for choosing me. Amidst the sweet melodies of classical music played by the orchestra, Esily, embraced by Theorad, smiled happier than anyone else.
