Chapter 756 The Wedding
They said they were going to sleep, but neither Sophia nor Gabriel hung up the phone.
Another two minutes passed.
Gabriel sighed, "Let's hang up."
Sophia, knowing she had to get up at five, quickly hung up the phone and went to sleep.
Perhaps the tense period had passed, Caroline fell asleep early and slept soundly, while Nicholas almost stayed awake until dawn.
Around five o'clock, Sophia and Caroline got up at the same time. The professional makeup team arrived at the Blackwood Manor and the Wolf Mansion half an hour later to start doing makeup for Sophia and Caroline.
The children were also awake. Knowing it was an important day for their parents, they stayed quietly by Sophia's side, watching her become more beautiful.
Around six o'clock, Sophia and Caroline finished their makeup and styling and began to change into their wedding dresses.
Jennifer brought breakfast to Sophia.
Linda also urged Caroline to eat something quickly.
Around seven o'clock, each of their bridesmaid groups arrived and set up various games.
Sophia's bridesmaid group included some designers.
Caroline's bridesmaid group included some friends from the industry and two teachers from school.
Their mutual friend Rose was troubled because she couldn't split herself in half to be a bridesmaid for both, so she had to attend as a guest and go directly to the wedding venue.
Around eight o'clock, Nicholas went to the Wolf Mansion to pick up Caroline, and Gabriel also went to the Blackwood Manor to pick up Sophia.
On Caroline's side, considering Nicholas's legs, many of the game challenges were set relatively simple, and Nicholas easily met Caroline.
The bridesmaids handed Nicholas a guarantee letter and asked him to sign it.
Nicholas signed his name without even looking at it.
Then he knelt on one knee and raised his right hand. "I promise to never let Caroline down."
His eyes were full of affection, as if they were glued to Caroline.
Caroline couldn't take her eyes off Nicholas the moment he entered the room.
Seeing the deep affection between Caroline and Nicholas, the people around them felt embarrassed to make things difficult for Nicholas.
Nicholas smoothly carried Caroline away.
Linda leaned on Daniel, her eyes red, trying to hold back her tears.
Today was Caroline's wedding day; she couldn't cry, she had to be happy.
Clayton followed behind Caroline, his eyes red as he personally saw her off.
"Nicholas, you must treat Caroline well, otherwise..." Clayton raised his fist.
After running around with the band for a while, Clayton had become quite muscular, and his fist looked strong.
Nicholas solemnly said, "From now on, Caroline is my life."
Caroline leaned in his arms, shyly turning her head. Happiness almost overflowed from her chest.
In contrast to this smooth process, Gabriel's side was much more complicated.
Indeed, several of Sophia's bridesmaids were designers from the Lancaster Group, including Larry.
They wouldn't miss this rare opportunity to tease Gabriel.
The challenges were as difficult as they could be.
They went through all sorts of challenges.
Gabriel and his two groomsmen were exhausted.
Harrison finished fifty jumps and panted heavily.
"These people are clearly dissatisfied with your usual exploitation."
Alex, having just finished fifty sit-ups, agreed.
Gabriel completed fifty one-handed push-ups with ease, smiling, without his usual cold CEO demeanor.
"Next is the beauty game. The groom and groomsmen need to strike some seductive poses."
Gabriel almost couldn't maintain his smile.
Striking seductive poses in front of so many people?
He might do it for Sophia alone, but in front of so many people, he would lose his face.
Alex's mouth twitched; he was a righteous person, and striking seductive poses would ruin his chances of finding a girlfriend.
Only Harrison breathed a sigh of relief. He was thankful that it wasn't about wearing women's clothes.
Seeing Gabriel frown, the bridesmaids instinctively felt fearful.
"If it's really difficult, you can switch to compliments. Just compliment our bride Sophia today." The bridesmaid changed tactics casually.
Sophia, standing aside, chuckled. She couldn't imagine Gabriel striking seductive poses.
It would definitely be spectacular.
Compliments were too easy. Harrison immediately started without a draft.
"Sophia is a beautiful, long-legged goddess..."
Finally, amid a round of coaxing, Gabriel helped Sophia put on her wedding shoes.
Colin walked over.
"I'll carry Sophia out."
At this moment, Gabriel didn't dare to compete with Colin.
Colin carried Sophia, step by step, slowly walking out.
The Blackwood family stood together, also walking step by step to see Sophia off.
Their eyes were red, but filled with joy.
Colin whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear.
"Sophia, you suffered so much before, and neither Grandma, Dad, nor I knew."
"Fortunately, you made it through. From now on, we will protect you."
"If Gabriel makes you unhappy, remember to come home."
Sophia, half crying, responded.
"Remember, you are the treasure of the Blackwood family, and no one can bully you."
Colin carried her steadily, and Sophia didn't feel any bumps lying on his back.
In the car, Sophia looked at her family from the Blackwood family, feeling a bit sad.
She hadn't spent enough time with them.
"Grandma." One word expressed all the familial love.
Jennifer and David supported Celeste.
"Sophia, don't be afraid. I'm always here."
Sophia reached out of the window and held Celeste's hand.
"Don't miss the time, go quickly."
The car slowly started.
Gabriel held Sophia's hand tightly, their fingers interlocked and silence spoke at this time.
In a line of luxury cars, the middle one was a stretched wedding car, and the two teams paraded around half of City B.
The route was meticulously planned, with the two teams meeting at an intersection and then heading to their own homes.
After a series of ceremonies at their homes, they headed to the wedding venue together.
The weather was clear and sunny that day, with even two heart-shaped clouds in the sky, as if heaven was blessing the two newlywed couples.
The lawn was covered with a red carpet, and the romantic flowers of various colors were planted in advance.
Looking down from a hot air balloon, the flowers spelled out the names of the two newlywed couples.
All the guests had arrived, and as the wedding march began, Caroline walked arm in arm with her father Daniel, while Sophia walked arm in arm with her uncle David.
Sophia and Caroline, the two brides, walked side by side towards their grooms.
Behind Sophia and Caroline were two flower girls, each holding a flower basket, grabbing a handful and scattering it into the air.
Emma was particularly excited, scattering the flowers with great enthusiasm.
Sam, seeing this, also smiled happily.
He and Emma were Sophia's flower children, while Ethan and Josie were Caroline's flower children.
