(An hour before)
Haus, tok ...
The door of her dressing room was suddenly knocked down by someone, making Marius wake up from his daydream. The man was standing looking at the sea from the window of the room with his mind floating everywhere.
Today is the day that everything will be settled. His worries were huge, especially if all his plans today were to fail. He brought not only destruction for himself, but also for Ana.
"Has he left already?," Marius asked Lucas who had just entered the room.
"It has. From earlier. Do you know what? They said she was beautiful in her dress. Rain was also wearing the same dress. Ana seems to have done that on purpose."
Marius only smiled proudly hearing Lucas say it. From the beginning, she knew Ana would definitely choose the dress. But, she did not expect that Ana would dare to wear the same dress as Rain on her wedding day with someone else. Marius could feel Ana being angry at him.
He returned to his smile.
"the next 30 minutes Miss Ana will arrive, Mr. Marius," said David, who had just entered.
Marius got up from where he stood, took his coat hanging at the end of the room, and walked over to David.
"Make sure you protect her well today, David. I will not tolerate any wrongdoing" Marius said right in front of David.
"Okay, Mr. Marius."
Then Marius walked towards the door.
"Come, we'll get it all done."
......................
Marius was standing in front of the altar. He looked at Nora who was standing in front of him with a bridal veil covering her face. Nevertheless, Marius could see the aura of his happiness.
Marius was very good at hiding his feelings of disgust behind the smile that was placed on his face. His experience of dealing with people he dislikes, makes him very good at this. That's why Nora could easily believe her when she asked to get married.
"You look dazzling today" whispered Nora teasing Marius.
Meanwhile, Marius simply smiled, then said in his flat tone, "You too."
The camera's blitz lights kept flashing perpetuating the false moment made by Marius in front of his board members. Not only that, he also invited real journalists in this fabrication. Valerie agreed just like that when Marius said he would hold a board meeting immediately after the event was over.
The person who will preside over the wedding ceremony is ready behind the pulpit and gives a sign that only Marius can read that everything is ready. Of course he knew it, that person was his undercover bodyguard.
Shortly after the man began to recite his prayers, the door of the room was opened violently by someone.
"I refuse to continue this marriage."
The cry of the man who had just entered distracted the people inside. The whispers between them began to be heard.
"Who let him in? Where are the bodyguards?"
Nora's screams were blaring all over the room. Nora's bodyguards in the room were already preparing to do as they were about to be ordered next.
"According to the request of the late Lady Agnes de Montaigne, mother of Marius Edmond Hadinata in her will, I as a lawyer formally appointed by the late have the right to terminate this marriage."
"What kind of empty muzzle is this?," asked Nora who looked very angry. He looked towards Marius as if he was asking the man if he knew about this.
But, Marius showed his ignorance. He shrugged both of his shoulders as Nora looked at him.
"What a shame! Come to people's wedding ceremonies and mess it up with crap. Do you think this is joking material?" snapped Mr. Barnett.
"I have an official document signed by the deceased and set by law as a decision that must be approved by the heirs. If you consider this document to be a fake, I also have a videotape made by the deceased."
Right at that moment, Lucas who was near Marius whispered something into his ear.
"It's in front."
Marius hid his happiness behind the expressionless look of his flat face. He only nodded his head once, and Lucas understood that they were going to continue with their next plan.
"Then read the will now" Marius ordered with his not-so-missing will.
"For this reason, another heir must be present in this reading, the fiancee of Lord Marius, whom the late Lady Agnes de Montague had arranged."
HORN ...
As soon as the door opened, the reporters were ready with their cameras. They waited with great curiosity, who was the fiance of a Marius who should not even be replaced by anyone.
As the door opened widened, the reporters did not want to miss their chance to get their best shot. The blitz lights glittered nonstop.
Marius looked at the figure of Ana who was now the center of attention of many people in the room. Lucas said, Ana looks so beautiful today. She did not know if it was because of the dress she was wearing, or because it had been too long since she had not met him, until her longing sense made Ana look dazzling at the moment.
"No. She was beautiful from a long time ago. Anna ..," she said in her heart.
Marius's call seemed to be heard by Ana, because now Ana was looking at him.
BAM !
When the door of the room closed again, the sound of camera blitz shots continued to be understated. Ana was still standing there with a still confused look on her face. Marius was sure the girl was trying to digest what was going on right now.
"MUHAHA ...."
Nora suddenly laughed. His laughter stopped the reporters from taking his camera.
"It must be your game, right? You did this to cancel this wedding. Right, right?" Nora's two eyes continued to glare as she spoke to Marius signifying how angry she was. But the culmination of all that was when he shouted even louder.
"I should'VE known WHEN YOU ASKED TO GET MARRIED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE."
Marius remained silent even though Nora continued to hold him and shout in front of his face.
"Haha ... I didn't expect you to be able to play a dirty game like this, Mr. Marius," said a man sitting next to Mr. Barnett.
"Why is this the girl you brought? We all know he's just your affair. You even dumped Valerie and your own son because of this girl, and now you're going to do the same to Mr Barnett's daughter? It's a shame, Mr. Marius."
Marius said nothing. She remained calm as the man cornered her. His authority also did not disappear from the way he looked.
"Don't you want to hear that will, Mr. Hartono of TMN Corp? I was also curious what the contents of the will Agnes left for her son, and I'm sure everyone in this room was as well" said Mr. Wang who had just been silent watched the drama show in front of him.
Those who agree with Mr. Wang started whispering to each other. Their heads kept nodding in agreement with the idea.
"I think the video footage is strong enough so that there is no denial from everyone. Didn't the lawyer say there was video footage Agnes left behind?"
The lawyer nodded his head. Then hand over a CD to a bodyguard sent by Mr. Money to get that CD.
The white screen had been lowered earlier on the side of the podium where Marius and Nora stood. All eyes were on the white screen, including Nora and her father, Mr. Barnett.
