No one had expected William to dash onto the stage.
The music playing in the grand hall abruptly ceased, and the festiveness in the hall died away into silence. Though there were some hushed discussions going on.
William didn't care what the others thought of him. His focus was solely on the bride.
Her veil was thick, obscuring her face even at close proximity. Moreover, she was wearing a face veil, a second layer of concealment.
He grasped her hand tightly and demanded, emphasizing each word, "Who are you?"
Arsen, who was seated at the main table below, rose. "Will, what's going on? Why did you dash onto the stage? Why are you holding onto my daughter's hand?"
Arsen was shocked and confused, displeased that William had disrupted the wedding, as evidenced by the frown on his face.
Meanwhile, Charles and the rest exchanged glances.
The host quickly stepped forward and intervened. "Sir, are you a friend of the bride? We welcome you, but our wedding ceremony is not yet finished. Please return to your seat. After the ceremony, the bride and groom will come down to greet the guests."
William remained unmoved and held on to the bride's hand. She neither struggled nor spoke, her eyes were downcast behind the veil, avoiding his gaze.
"Will!" Elias quickly got on the stage, grasping William's wrist to calm him and defuse the situation. "I apologize. The bride resembles a deceased friend of his, which is why he's so agitated. He means no harm."
However, William didn't back down. He was determined to find out if the bride was Emelie.
"Remove the veil. I want to see your face," he said.
The groom darted forward and shoved William aside. "Do you think I don't know Cedonian? She's my wife. Who are you to demand that she reveal her face? Let go of her and get off the stage immediately!"
William ignored the groom. He continued to stare at the bride with his dark eyes that resembled a bottomless pit.
William said, "First, you informed the butler of our preferences, revealing knowledge of our tastes. Then there were the hydrangeas and the wedding decorations. Now, you're wearing a wedding dress identical to Emelie's."
He concluded, "You must want us to know you're still alive, so why are you afraid to show me your face now?"
Arsen was embarrassed as his guests of friends and family were witnessing this. Not only did William disrupt the wedding, but he was even tugging at his daughter. William must have simply wanted to humiliate him.
"Ahhh!!" he yelled.
Charles and the rest knew that if this went on, they would lose their cooperation with the Aurora Group. So, they went up on stage as well.
"Mr. Middleton, please step down. We must show some respect to Arsen. We'll discuss this later," Charles said.
Beathan added, "Mr. Middleton, don't be impulsive."
