Chapter 614 A Happy Wedding 2
Freddy and Gilbert each paired up with a little girl to form two pairs of flower children who diligently scattered petals down the aisle.
The carpet was covered with rose petals.
Jessica, with a faint smile on her lips, stepped towards Gabriel with determined strides.
The long train of her wedding dress swayed with her steps as if fluttering in the wind, looking beautiful.
Gabriel, dressed in a black suit, stood there looking handsome and dashing.
His gaze was gentle and full of affection, making everything around him seem ethereal and unreal, except for the bride in front of him.
Finally, Jessica reached him.
Alfonso, with tears in his eyes, placed Jessica's hand into Gabriel's palm. "Take good care of her."
With just that one sentence, Alfonso's voice choked up.
"Gabriel, Jessica, I wish you happiness!"
After saying this, Alfonso quickly turned away, afraid he couldn't hold back his emotions.
In the guest seats, Danielle and Jonah sat in the front row, both smiling broadly.
Vincent and Tina sat closely together in the second row.
"It's wonderful, they've finally found happiness after all their hardships."
Tina was genuinely happy for Jessica.
The ceremony was already underway, with Jessica and Gabriel expressing their deep feelings for each other.
There was no officiant; they spoke for themselves.
Because they felt it was more heartfelt this way.
Gabriel took Jessica's hand and seriously, word by word, asked her, "Dear Ms. Morgan, do you take this man to be your husband, to love, honor, and cherish him all the days of your life?"
Jessica nodded vigorously. "I do."
As she spoke, her eyes filled with tears.
Gabriel couldn't help but remind her, "It's your turn, Ms. Morgan."
"Dear Mr. Walton, do you take this woman to be your wife, to love, honor, and cherish her all the days of your life?"
After hearing this, Gabriel lifted Jessica's veil and leaned in for a kiss.
Thousands of petals fell from the sky, landing on the couple, making everything incredibly romantic.
The venue erupted in enthusiastic applause.
As long as the applause continued, Gabriel kept kissing her.
It wasn't until Jessica was almost out of breath that he let her go, playfully tapping her nose. "With a bit more practice, you'll master it."
Next was the ring exchange.
Jessica suddenly realized her ring seemed to be missing.
She panicked, thinking something had gone wrong.
At that moment, a red toy car drove steadily down the red carpet.
Stella, dressed in a pink princess dress, lay inside, tightly holding a red box.
Stella's big, bright eyes were so adorable they melted everyone's hearts.
Gabriel walked over and took the box from Stella's cute little hands.
Then, Stella lay back in the car and was remotely driven off the carpet.
The whole wedding revolved around Jessica and Gabriel.
"Did you design all this?" Jessica couldn't help but ask excitedly.
"Do you like it?" he asked.
As he spoke, he had already placed the ring on Jessica's finger.
"Mrs. Walton, from now on, you can't escape."
Jessica, not to be outdone, also put a ring on him, declaring, "Mr. Walton, remember, from now on, you're a married man."
"I'll heed your advice."
The final part of the ceremony was the bouquet toss.
Jessica handed the bouquet to Tina.
Tina was both surprised and delighted.
"Tina, this bouquet is my way of cheering you on and sending all my best wishes to you. I hope to attend your wedding soon."
"Thank you, Jessica."
Tina was deeply moved.
Even after the wedding ended, Jessica felt like she was in a dream.
She had thought it would just be a simple honeymoon, a time for the two of them.
That alone would have made her very happy.
She never expected Gabriel to have secretly prepared everything.
It seemed everyone knew except her.
Shortly after the wedding, the guests began to leave.
Danielle and Jonah came over with their three children. "Jessica, Gabriel, we wish you a happy marriage and hope you stay happy forever."
"Mom, Dad, thank you!"
"Enjoy your time here; we'll take the kids back and take care of them. Don't worry."
After seeing Danielle and Jonah off, Jessica walked over to Vincent and Tina.
"Jessica, we won't disturb you any longer. We're getting ready to leave," Tina said proactively.
"Alright, take care."
Jessica then looked at Vincent. "Vincent, I'm worried about Tina traveling alone. Please make sure she gets home safely."
"Of course."
At that moment, Vincent looked up at Gabriel. "I'd like to talk to Jessica alone."
Gabriel nodded.
Facing the sea breeze, he watched Vincent and Jessica's backs as they talked.
Vincent handed Jessica a box. "Jessica, congratulations on your wedding. This is my gift to you."
Jessica felt a bit embarrassed to accept it.
Given Vincent's feelings for her, she didn't know how to accept it.
Over the years, Vincent had always been there for her.
During her most difficult and needy times, Vincent was always by her side.
Although some things were never explicitly said, they both understood.
"Vincent, I can't accept this gift."
"Take it!" Vincent's eyes showed a hint of sadness. "It's not an expensive gift,"
He paused, then continued, "Jessica, this should be the last gift I give you."
Hearing this, Jessica couldn't refuse any longer.
She nodded and gently took it.
At the same time, she smiled. "Vincent, thank you!"
"Not just for this gift, but for being in my life, for all the warmth and kindness you've given me."
Vincent looked at Jessica.
This time, his gaze was no longer restrained but filled with longing and affection.
Because it was the last time, he wanted to let himself be indulgent.
For the rest of his life, he would never look at her this way again.
"Jessica, can I hug you?"
Hearing this, Jessica was a bit stunned.
She knew Gabriel was watching them from not far away.
Seeing her hesitate, Vincent gently said, "Afraid he'll be jealous?"
"Yes." Jessica nodded, not hiding it.
Vincent smiled a broad and generous smile. "That's perfect. I want him to know that if he doesn't cherish you, someone better could take you away."
"So, he must always have a sense of urgency."
