Chapter 69

• The newlyweds begin their slow dance, but Alexander, upon hearing the song, only looks up for a few seconds to see that it was me singing a song that we danced to some time ago. I smile at him behind the microphone and he just nods slightly, and that was it. At that moment, my life had been taken away. With the song that started it all, I will finish it. They both looked completely happy as the guests applauded them. I take a deep breath, finally finishing the song, and waited a few moments before handing the microphone to the boy who looked at me gratefully as he stepped down from the stage and walked towards Christian when the second song started, and I instantly smiled.
• "Mr. Bornout, would you honor me with a dance?" I spoke, extending my hand towards him.
• "Nothing would make me happier, Miss Pryest."
