Chapter 400
“Cedrick Mason, do you take Maia Clark to be your lawful wife? To have and to hold, from this day forward; for better or for worse; for richer or poorer; in sickness and in health; to love, respect, and protect her?”
Cedrick listened quietly to the priest’s cue…but he did not respond.
Thinking that he had not heard the question, the priest repeated himself, but Cedrick simply remained silent and pursed his lips tightly.
The smile on Maia’s face slowly stiffened as she turned to look at him, wordlessly urging him to answer the question.
.
Just then, a figure stormed through the entrance before he could say a word.
With her back toward the light, her face was overshadowed. Everyone was stunned by her sudden appearance as they struggled to get a clearer look on her face. The next instant, what she said stirred the crowd. “Cedrick Mason, where did you take my son? Give him back!” She slowly stepped onto the red carpet and into sight, her face becoming more distinct as she moved closer. Her features were delicate and elegant, her skin fair and her eyes alluring. Her cheeks flushed red as she glared at the man from below the stage.
Maia’s eyes narrowed viciously when she spotted Catelyn, daring to ruin her wedding. Cedrick, too, had not expected Catelyn to be there. She had slimmed down a lot, and the witty look in her eyes had vanished.
