"No, I know you are trying to trick us!" Lola hurried to stop Amber and Yvonne before they could open the door.
Thanks to Lola, Yvonne knew what they had said was a trick. She shouted through the door, "Cut the crap! Slide them in!"
Someone asked outside, "What do you want us to slide in?" It's obvious that the men outside were telling a dirty joke.
Everyone in the room understood it immediately except Amber and Yvonne who weren't married and hadn't had that experience. The two still shouted, "Red envelopes! Of course we mean red envelopes!"
"Can we slide something else in?" The same man said.
"Something else?" The voice sounded familiar to Yvonne.
"Get out, so I can show you!"
The men outside understood what he meant, so they all laughed.
Ella blushed and winked at Lola who immediately understood her. Lola tugged at one of Yvonne's arms and said, "Ignore them, they are making fun of us."
Yvonne nodded. Then many red packets were slid under the door. The women inside the room hurried to grab them.
"Not enough! They are not enough for all of us!" Yvonne tore open the red envelope she got and was happy to see there was a lot of money in it.
Joseph knocked on the door to grab their attention and said, "Hurry up! This is your last chance. Here are some more."
Then, more red envelopes were slid underneath the door, enough for all of the women in the room.
"We've given you what you've asked for! Now open the door!"
Suddenly, Lola remembered that they had asked Harry to sing a song on her wedding.
"We have one more requirement. The groom needs to sing a love song for our bride!"
Hearing what Lola said, Ella smirked. Samuel had sung in front of her many times and he was a good singer.
But it never happened again after they registered for marriage.
Samuel began to sing, without any hesitation.
At the same time, some funny guy shouted, "If I were a boy... One, two, three, go!"
Everyone present laughed. Yvonne even laughed until tears streamed down her cheeks. She was determined to find out who the funny guy was.
After the laughter died down, Samuel sang, "If I had to live my life without you near me. The days would all be empty. The nights would seem so long. With you I see forever oh so clearly. I might have been in love before. But it never felt this strong. Our dreams are young and we both know. They'll take us where we want to go. Hold me now, touch me now, I don't want to live without you..."
The song was pretty captivating that everyone present was touched by it.
One of the groomsmen outside even took out their phone to film Samuel as he was singing.
The moment deserved to be recorded.
Ella's eyes filled with tears. She'd been waiting so long for today, the happiest day of her life.
Then the door was finally opened.
The crowd moved indoors.
There were so many big names in the lawyer world among them. Lola couldn't help but squealing when she saw so many attractive men in suits.
Samuel held an armful of red roses, walking towards the woman on the bed.
As they were staring at each other affectionately, Samuel's heart beat so fast.
Before Joseph could speak, Samuel rushed forward to kiss Ella.
"Wow, look at him! Samuel can't even wait."
