"False accusations... We gave you proof already" Chris yelled angry at how things was backfiring. He turned to Alex and glared at him. He knew he must have done something in the shadows. Seems like he anticipated Chris plan.
"Your proof are counterfeit Mr Chris. And have been dismissed for being fake. However, Mr Alex ordered your arrest" the policeman explain as he tried to walk Chris out of the hall but he refused to bulge.
"I won't allow you take my son" Alice said gritting her teeth hard after hearing the proof they brought was claimed to be fake. Everything was damn real but somehow, Alex had made them say it's fake.
"Ma'am, you are disrupting my work and I can arrest you --"
"Officer, arrest her along with her pathetic son" Alex baritone voice interrupted. It resounded in the hall leaving many eyes wide at his statement.
Alice and Chris eyes widened so much that it seemed like they would pop out of their sockets soon.
"W-what?" Alice stuttered stunned but the other side of the cuff was immediately locked on her hand connecting both mother and son as they were dragged away not without them glaring hard at Alex who face didn't bother to react to their glare.
Chris gritted his teeth. "I'll make you pay for this" he muttered
Soon they got outside and found a crowd of reporter surrounding them to take their statement since they weren't allowed inside the wedding hall to witness what happened.
"Mr Chris... Why are you being arrested on your brother wedding day? "
" I heard you accused Mr Alex of murder how true is that? "
" Isn't it a shame to be arrested on your brother's wedding day? "
" How do you feel? Sad, angry, or annoyed? "
" Why are you being arrested? "
" Mrs Alice...how do you feel being arrested by your stepson?"
More and more questions kept on Chris and his mother as they managed to walk through the crowd of the reporters under the protection of the police.
The questions of the reporters angered Chris more as he thought of ways to get back Alex for this insult and humiliation.
Their heads were hung low as they entered into the police van and were taken away ignoring the numerous questions that came from the reporters.
Back inside wedding hall, they were pronounced husband and wife. Lisa hearts kept on slamming against her chest. Her dreaded nightmare still came to pass.
She suddenly wished that the accusations of The young man who happens to be Alex stepbrother made Alex to go to jail, that way , she would have avoided marrying him. But now, she married a murderer. She didn't even care to know whether the accusations was real or not.
Remembering the fact that he was accused of murdering his own father made her stomach churn and she suddenly felt nauseous.
After the whole wedding was concluded, Lisa stood as people came to congratulate them. Alex barely spoke a word to them. As a matter of fact, it was Lisa who did most of the talking while Alex couldn't care less.
They were his acquaintance but he didn't even bother to give them attention.
Moreso, the guest who came to congratulate them were too afraid to talk to Alex. The cold force around him made them shut their mouth and they opted to communicate with his newly wedded bride since she seemed more social.
Lisa was already tired of talking when Wendy came to her.
Lisa froze. Wendy was the cause of everything. If only she didn't give her out to her mother, she would have escaped all this.
She couldn't believe that she was betrayed by her own friend.
"Hey Lisa congrats on your wedding" Wendy said but Lisa was in no mood to speak to her. So she turned her gaze away from her and her features hardened.
Alex who seemed uninterested at everyone who had been coming to them became amused but of course he didn't show it.
He looked at his wife angry face. Rather than looking angry, she looked more cuter to him with the little pout on her lips.
Finally, he was married to the love of his life. No one except Lia and him knew how he became so close. God knows that he loves this woman from the bottom of his heart.
Remembering the reason for her angry look, he decided to trace his gaze to the cause who was equally looking at him but his cold face and aura made Wendy to lower her head quickly.
"Do you want her gone my lovely wife?" Alex asked in a low voice which only Lisa heard. He touched her hair fondly as Lisa froze hearing his deep voice near her ears.
He said it in a such a way that made Lisa heart flutter like as though she was the only one meant to hear what he said.
"Yes" Lisa muttered back as she suddenly looked nervous, her angry look suddenly washing away.
"Lisa, are you listening to me?" Wendy called out. She didn't hear anything that the couple had said because it was whispered.
Alex sneered and commanded. "Get out!"
"Huh?" Wendy was startled and scared. What offence did she commit? She just came to congratulate her friend.
"I don't repeat myself twice" Alex stated coldly. Just then a man walked up to them.
"A word please" he said to Alex. Alex glanced at Lisa who gave a small nod. She didn't know why she did that but she felt it was necessary.
"You must be happy your husband embrassed me" Wendy hissed as soon as Alex was out of earshot.
"I don't want to talk to you Wendy. Leave" Lisa said immediately. Her angry look returning back to her face.
Wendy gave a laugh before scoffing. "What was I expecting from a slut like you!! "
Lisa froze. Wendy just called her a slut. For the very first time, someone called her a slut. Not just anyone, her closest friend.
Lisa could feel tears brimming in her eyes.
Wendy smirked on seeing tears filling Lisa eyes. She has known Lisa for a long time so she knew she was a soft and emotional person unlike Lia her late twin sister.
This gave Wendy dominion over her and since no one could defend her, then this was her chance to mock her just like she has always wanted for a long time.
"And oh.... As if seducing Josh wasn't enough. You decided to seduce America best bachelor. Wow Lisa ...just wow. You are really good at what you do" Wendy spat.
Lisa opened her mouth to speak but the tears pouring from her eyes choked her voice.
Wendy felt satisfaction seeing that Lisa couldn't talk back at her but rather stood there and cried like the weakling she is.
"This is all you do. Cry like a weakling. I can't wait for your in-laws to find out the real truth so that you can taste the real meaning of pains" Wendy rubbed more salt on Lisa wound.
" Why?!! " Lisa asked rhetorically still releasing her streams of tears. Wendy folded her arms as she smirked.
Guest are already gathered around them watching the drama and the new wife of Alex in tears.
"She's such a weakling"
"How can Alex marry someone like her?"
"She won't survive with Alex"
" Alex hate weakling"
" She isn't even beautiful"
More hateful comment came against Lisa. She stood there with her head bowed to the floor as tears continue to flow.
"Hey listen up everyone. This girl here is a slut and a cheap whore. She goes around sleeping with men and her hole is so wide that.. "
" Say one more bad thing about Lisa and you'll regret it" a Masculine voice cut Wendy short and she froze.
