as Patricia slowly placed her hand in his firm palm.
"Happy wedding day, Patricia..."
"Martin, Patricia, here's to a lifetime of happiness..."
Amidst the well-wishes, Martin led Patricia out of the dressing room and into the wedding venue that was the center of everyone's attention.. Fannie, in her princess dressdressed as the flower girl and a small tiara, clutching flowers, led the way.
, with Charles and Randy, holding onto Patricia's train, guided her under the spotlight with melodies filling the air. The family of five walked towards the wedding stage, instantly becoming the focus of the entire assembly.
The audience seated below, including their friends and family of the Langleys, stared wide-eyed the momentwhen they saw Patricia as the bride. They blinked, blinking in disbelief as if they had seen wrong.
Jessica turned to Samuel in confusion, asking, "What's going on? Why is Patricia the bride?"
Wasn't it supposed to be Eva?
Samuel just shook his head in confusion, , equally confused. "I have no idea!"."
Jessica was speechless.
Although she was, pleased with the outcome, someone needed to explain what had happened but wanting an explanation for the sudden change.
Why had Patricia become the bride?
Especially Gladys, who reacted most dramatically.
"How did Patricia end up the bride??! Wasn't it Eva?"
Frank, a colleague from the hospital, was seated at their table.
Hearing her exclamation, a mocking smile curled at his lips, with their hospital colleagues, smiled mockingly. "The bride has always been Patricia. Why did you all think it was Eva?"
Gladys was a complete mess.
, flustered, responded, "Eva was the one on the invitations, and in the news reports!. Everyone in Ivara City knew it was her."
With that, she nervously took out her phone to confirm her words and pulled upcheck the official Langley Group website, locating for the wedding announcement they had posted.
[Announcement: The. It read, 'The CEO of the Langley Group is set to wed on the 28th of this month. The venue will be announced at a later date.].'
"…?!"
Eva's name was nowhere to be seenfound.
Then why did everyone assume that Eva was the bride?
Confused, Gladys thoughtscrolled feverishly down the page, thinking she might have been looking in the wrong place, feverishly scrolling down the page.
. She couldn't have made a mistake.
O; otherwise, why would everyone take for granted thatassume Eva was the bride?
Unfortunately, despiteDespite her efforts, scrolling back through announcements as far as last year, she found nothing like what she was expecting.
to confirm her expectations. "Why is this happening? It was supposed to be Eva…"
Frank glanced at her with a hint of disdain and decidedbut chose not to engage further.
The other colleagues' curiosity among other colleagues grew, leading them to search The so they also searched the Langley Group's official website. After finding no relevant information, they couldn't help but whisperwhispered to Frank, "ProfessorDr. Taylor, I'm puzzled too. Ifif the bride is actually ProfessorDr. Watson, why did we all assumethink it was Eva?"
Frank smiled. "It's always been your own assumption that Eva was the bride. ," Frank said with a smile. "Mr. Langley never personally acknowledged it."
Gladys: "…?!"
Other and their colleagues: "…?!" were speechless for a moment.
Gladys: "How could we just assume? ?" Gladys asked, perplexed. "Eva handed out wedding invitations, treated us to wedding favors, and she herselfeven said she'sshe was the bride."
Frank wasn't in the mood to explain; he remained silent, no longer feeling like explaining.
At that moment, Eva appeared. Gladys immediately confronted her, "Eva, weren't you supposed to be the bride? How come it's now Patricia?"
RecallingGladys's cheeks burned with shame, remembering the mockery and humiliation she had directed at Patricia in the office, her cheeks burned with shame, and she. She wished she could just disappear into thin air.
When Eva appeared. Gladys immediately confronted her. "Weren't you supposed to be the bride, Eva? How come it's now Patricia?"
Eva, ever patient, explained, "Didn't you guys see it? Martin has ?" Eva explained. "Mr. Langley had a crush on ProfessorDr. Watson, but she wouldn't accept his proposal. Out of desperation,, so he asked me to put on an act to provoke a reaction from Professor Watson. Today's weddingmake her jealous. The bride has always been about ProfessorDr. Watson. As for the rumors about me being the bride, that was a decoy Martin spread deliberately.those were part of Mr. Langley's plan. He never actually declared who the bridehe was marrying."
After hearing herEva's explanation, Gladys wished she could unhear it, her face turning even more sullen.
Martin was fond of Patricia, and yet Patricia had turned him down.
How ironic!
Countless The irony wasn't lost on her: countless women yearned for a chance with Martin, yet Patricia seemed to be utterly unfazed by his charm.
He, and he had gone to such lengths for her.
Ah...
, the burning with jealousy.
Especially at the sight of Seeing a blissful Patricia at the altar, her made Gladys's envy spiraled toward madness.

"You guys got it all mixed up. MartinMr. Langley never explicitly stated who the bride was; it was allthe media made wild guesses by the media, which turned into a widely accepted error!"."
"Really?"
"Yeah, now that you mention it, I do remember that the Langley Group's official website never disclosed the bride's identity of the bride.. We just assumed it was Eva because that's who it was rumored to be."
"..."
