My Husband Wants Me Dead (Esther and Bradley) novel Chapter 222

Chapter 222 

Bradley released Liliane’s hand, surprising her. Before she could inquire, a female bodyguard dressed as a bridesmaid stepped forward to adjust her dress. 

Despite not standing in the designated position assigned by the wedding company, Liliane interpreted Bradley’s actions as his way of taking care of her. 

The priest held a Bible and walked to the center of Bradley and Liliane. “May both of you place your hands on the Bible.” 

Bradley and Liliane simultaneously placed their hands on the Bible.
