The Wedding Crasher Moment

However, I didn’t manage to leave. Harrison’s meal was a family gathering. After hearing the commotion, his parents came out of the private room and saw me right away.

The anger from the wedding desertion suddenly surged in their hearts. His mother refused to let me leave no matter what, insisting on having a confrontation.

I was pulled into the room by her. The entire family elders and relatives stared at me like hungry tigers.

“Little Gwen, haven’t we treated you well enough? Even though your family conditions are mediocre, we’ve never looked down on you!”

This sentence—Harrison’s parents didn’t know how many times they had said it in my ear. I had known very early on That the moment they said this sentence, they were already looking down on me.

His mother continued: “How could you be so irresponsible? You just ran away from the wedding, and who was that wedding crasher? Your ex-boyfriend, or someone you cheated with while dating my son?

“My son has money and good looks—how are you still not satisfied? “With your conditions, where else could you find someone so good?”

Their interrogations came like cannon shells. Are all parents this hypocritical?

That sentence Harrison said at the engagement party— In their eyes, it was a genuine expression of feeling, a sign that their son was wronged by me. While my running away from the wedding was being irresponsible, was cheating.

Thinking of this, I couldn’t help but laugh.

“You’re still laughing? What’s so funny about this? Oh my, you girl, tsk tsk tsk, really scary, so thick-skinned…”

“Mom, stop talking.”

“I want to talk! Today we must ask clearly: when exactly did she cheat!”

“Gwen didn’t cheat.”

“If she didn’t cheat, could she run away with a man? The wedding was ruined by her—our family’s old reputation was completely lost by her!”

“It wasn’t her, it was me!” Harrison suddenly shouted loudly, Startling everyone.

“It was me who wronged Gwen! I didn’t want to get married, I cheated, which is why I allowed Gwen to do that. There was no wild man—that wedding crasher was an actor I hired for Gwen!”

“Are you crazy?!”

“I didn’t give Gwen enough respect at the engagement party, so it’s only right for her to get it back at the wedding. Don’t ask any further. If you still refuse to let her go—”

Harrison paused for a moment and said very calmly: “Then tomorrow I’ll shave my head and become a monk.”

“Oh my goodness!” “We were just asking the girl casually, that’s all.”

The family now had only Harrison as their sole male heir. When he said he wanted to become a monk, everyone’s faces turned pale with extreme panic.

Only then did I manage to escape successfully.

When seeing me out, Harrison felt very guilty: “I’m sorry for ruining your dinner.”

“It’s fine, I plan to change to another restaurant to eat. This restaurant might not be compatible with my fortune.”

Harrison forced a laugh. He saw me all the way to the door, And finally raised his head to glance at me.

In that glance, too many emotions were contained, and his eyes were red.

I couldn’t help but seek verification from him: “Harrison, do you know everything?”

His lips trembled, his voice extremely faint.

I asked: “What did you say? I didn’t hear clearly.”

“It’s nothing.” Harrison waved at me, “Hurry and go eat, don’t stay hungry.”

“Oh.”

I didn’t say goodbye to him, leaving without turning back. After walking for a long, long time, until my friend asked me: Gwen, why haven’t you spoken all this time? Are old flames rekindling? Only then did I snap out of it.

Rekindling was impossible. I had just heard that sentence Harrison didn’t dare to say out loud.

He said: “If being with me will make you unhappy, then I am willing to let go.”
