“You're so cheeky.” Sophia hit Arthur's chest with her fist playfully.
“Let’s get down the car.” Arthur smiled as he kissed her forehead and comforted her.
“I'm really nervous.” She nodded and clutched her chest nervously.

The bodyguards and assistants were all waiting for them outside the car as the car door opened. The stylist helped her to rearrange her train while Arthur personally covered her veil for her. Her beautiful face could be vaguely seen behind the veil. The towering church building looked majestic and sacred, which caught Sophia’s attention. The golden domes of the building glistered as the sunlight shone on it, which made it seem holy.
Both of them walked toward the direction of the chapel, hand in hand. Just then, the steward that had been waiting since morning hurried over.
“Young Master, you're finally here. You should hurry, as the guests had been waiting for a long time.” As the bride's face was covered with a veil, no one noticed that it wasn’t Emily. Sophia was so nervous that her palms were sweating profusely. As she looked at the guests who were smiling at them and showering them with good wishes, she bet they thought she was Emily.
Arthur could feel her sweaty hands and leaned in before whispering, “Everything will be fine.” Upon hearing his words, she lifted her head and looked into his eyes through the veil. Marrying him was not only the bravest thing she had done in her life, but it was also the best thing that had happened to her. His comforting words gave her the confidence to face whatever would cto them. She took a deep breath, nodded, and walked on the red carpet as she held his hand. When the guests that had been waiting the whole morning finally saw the bride and groom, they clapped to welcthe couple’s arrival. After the applause stopped, the wedding symphony surrounded the chapel.
Martha, who was seated in the front row, let out a sigh of relief after seeing the arrival of the bride and groom.
She initially thought that her grandson wasn’t going to proceed with the wedding. She also noticed that Arthur's expression wasn't as cold as before and that he was beaming with happiness while his eyes were filled with warmth and joy. She grinned, thinking of the grandchildren she would be getting in the future as there was hope for it.
Meanwhile, on the lawn outside the hall, a black sedan suddenly cto a halt as the driver slammed on the brakes. The friction caused by the skidding created sparks. Just as the car stopped, Emily immediately dashed down from the car while her mother was carrying her train so the dust on the ground wouldn't dirty it. When they were on the carpet, the assistant helped to rearrange the train while Vera checked her daughter's makeup.

At that moment, Arthur held Sophia’s hand and led her up to the altar as they were about to complete the wedding ceremony in front of over 300 guests.
Just as the pastor was about to read their wedding vows, the doors suddenly flung open, and someone exclaimed, “They cannot get married!” It was Emily. “I'm the bride!” she screamed hysterically.
Upon hearing that, the guests turned to look at her, and they were puzzled when they saw two brides at the wedding. Emily walked on the red carpet by herself and nonchalantly removed her veil, which revealed her face.
The family members instantly recognized that she was supposed to be the bride, which made them ponder the identity of the other bride standing on the altar holding Arthur's hand.
The scene shocked Martha, and she immediately stood up and looked at Emily wide-eyed. She then turned her gaze at the slim figure holding hands with her grandson. No! This can’t be! Did he switch the bride out?!
