The whole world had watched their wedding, and for Connor and Lydia, it was more than just a ceremony. This was their way of telling everyone that love, real love, had won.
Once the celebration was over and the guests had finally left, the noise faded away, leaving Lydia’s Garden wrapped in a gentle, romantic hush. Connor scooped Lydia into his arms, cradling her like she was the most precious thing in the world. His steps were slow and careful, every movement full of tenderness. Lydia’s arms slipped around his neck, her cheeks still carrying the blush from earlier, her smile soft and bright, like it had been there all night.
When Connor pushed open the door to their suite, it was like stepping into a dream. The room glowed with warm light, everything bathed in a soft golden haze. Rose petals made a path across the floor straight to the bed. The air was scented with roses and something sweet and calming. For a moment, it felt like they had wandered into their own private fairy tale.
The bed was huge, draped with a delicate canopy and sparkling crystals that caught the light. Silky sheets covered the mattress. On the bedside table, two elegant swan-shaped candles flickered, casting a cozy glow. At the foot of the bed sat an ice bucket holding a fancy bottle of champagne, with two crystal flutes engraved with their initials right next to it.
Near the window, a small piano waited, topped with a card. It was a piece Connor had written just for Lydia. The windows themselves were decorated with strings of tiny, twinkling lights, making the whole place feel even warmer and more magical.
Connor set Lydia gently on the bed. He knelt to slip off her high heels, his hands gentle as he rubbed her tired feet. “Today must have worn you out, huh? You’ve done so much, my beautiful bride.”
Lydia shook her head, smiling. “I’m alright.” She meant it, too. If anyone had worked hard today, it was Connor, always making sure she was okay, looking after every guest, every friend and family member.

Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
