She Took My Place (Ashley and Grace) novel Chapter 68

Chapter 68 

Devin in a black suit pushed open the door under the expectant gaze of the people in the hall. 

After fastening the last cufflink, he walked up to Grace and greeted her with a smile, “I’m sorry I’m late.” 

“You’re just in time. It’s not too late.” 

Devin’s smile widened as he listened to her soft consolation. 

He held out a hand, his eyes full of tenderness and 

determination. 

“Let’s get it started.” 

Grace placed her hand in his palm. 

Amid the screams and blessings from the audience, the newlyweds slowly walked into the venue. 

Outside the window, firecrackers roared, and pale pink rose petals fell slowly, with flashes of light from cameras continuously below the stage. 

Except for Devin, everything around her was unfamiliar. 

Actually, Grace was not that familiar with Devin. 

She felt dazed as if everything had been a dream. 

The host had perfect control over the wedding process. Soon, it was time to exchange rings. 

288 Mouchers. 

When Devin lifted her hand and gently put the ring on her ring finger, she truly felt that she was the center of this wedding. 

Since Liana passed away three years ago, Grace had no family left in this world. 

She stayed with the Kaufman family because she had no family and no place to live. 

After today, she had a new family and loved ones; she was no longer alone. 

Grace didn’t know what the future held. 

She lowered her eyes, stared at the ring on her hand, and prayed inwardly, “May today be the beginning of tomorrow, not the end of yesterday.” 

Seeing her in a trance, Devin held her hand and clasped it. The warmth from his palm warmed Grace’s hand. 

She subconsciously raised her head, only to meet his soft gaze. 

Up to this point, everyone in the audience cheered for them to kiss. 

Grace and Devin had only met twice, despite having been chatting for more than a month. 

So when Grace heard the chanting, she felt slightly nervous, her face flushing with embarrassment. 

Devin was relatively calm. He leaned over and asked softly, “May I?” 

Grace was already ready when he leaned over.

But then his pòlite question made her slightly flustered. 

Devin caught the emotional changes on her face, understanding her feelings. 

With a smile, he lifted her hand and gently placed a kiss on the back of her hand, ready to let go. 

The light touch on her hand startled Grace. 

Nevertheless, this did not cause the chanting to stop; rather, it intensified, getting louder by the second. 

A frustrated smile flashed across Devin’s face. He was about to turn around and urge the host to start the next procedure when Grace stood on tiptoe and put her arm around his shoulders. 

Their hot breaths entwined as they stood so close. 

In his eyes full of surprise, Grace went all out and kissed him on the lips. 

The audience suddenly erupted in thunderous applause. The reporters who had snuck in used cameras to capture the moment.
