Chapter 1179 Do Not Need This Luck
“Did you do this on purpose, Bastien?” Natalie turned her head toward Bastien and gritted her teeth. “I already cooperated with you. Why did you still do this?” Bastien’s lips curled up, and his eyes turned cold.
He whispered in her ear, “That’s right. I did it on purpose. Today is the day you bid farewell to the past. You might have been his in the past, but you are now mine. There is no chance between you and him. I also want Samuel to witness this with his own eyes. He’s the loser who lost you to me…”
A wave of complicated feelings washed over Natalie when she heard that. She initially thought the Leitz family planted the trap. She was not prepared for Bastien’s new identity for her or Cynthia’s torturous interrogation when she sought to escape from this.
Although she did not want any of this to happen, she was powerless to stop it. “I said I would never fall in love with you!” Natalie uttered as she stared at Bastien coldly.
Upon hearing that, Bastien chuckled and pinched Natalie’s cheek. There was not a hint of anger on his face. “It’s enough if I love you. Anyways, you’re mine from now on. We have a lot of time to spend together. You will change your mind.”
Natalie took a sharp breath as she tried to interject. Before she could do so, the wedding chaperone chimed in, “Prince Jonathan, Madam, the wedding ceremony is about to begin. You guys can continue saying your sweet nothings to each other after the ceremony.” Even though the wedding chaperone could not hear their conversation, she inferred from their seemingly intimate interactions and covered her mouth to chuckle discreetly.
Bastien immediately put on the facade of a dashing gentleman and smiled gently.
“Okay.”
The wedding chaperone was dazzled by Bastien’s smile and could not help but say to Natalie, “Madam, you are blessed to marry a man like Prince Jonathan! You must understand not many ladies in Loang can experience such luck in men!”
Natalie remained silent. She could not find it in herself to smile in this situation.
What kind of luck is this? I’m willing to give whoever wants this luck!
She only wanted to be with Samuel in this lifetime, so she did not need such luck with men.
The wedding chaperone was stumped by Natalie’s cold expression, as she did not understand the reason behind it. She touched her nose sheepishly. “Madam, you don’t need to be nervous. I’ll help you out with whatever procedure you need to do later. You can follow my instructions.”
Natalie did not respond to that.
Bastien paid no heed to their interaction.
He took one end of the silk ribbon in his hand and felt its texture. He finally felt a huge weight lift off his shoulders when he realized his plan was almost set in stone.
Natalie did not want to hold the other end of the silk ribbon, but the wedding chaperone shoved it in her hands.
Unwillingness was written all over Natalie’s face.
However, the silk ribbon remained in her hands.
A genuine smile appeared on Bastien’s face for the first time. At the moment, the bliss he felt had nothing to do with his identity or any ploys.
When Natalie turned and noticed Bastien’s smile, some unknown emotion flickered in her eyes. However, she was unable to feel any sense of tenderness and affection. On the contrary, endless sorrow filled her heart.
She was about to see Samuel in this state at the wedding ceremony.
With the wedding chaperone from the palace leading the way, Bastien and Natalie slowly walked toward the largest room in Luna Palace.
Besides Mikhail, who was supposed to appear last in the wedding ceremony, all the other princes and their wives were present. There were also a few royals and nobles who were invited.
Coincidentally, Samuel, Yandel, Daniel, Patricia, Jerome, Helma, and Geert were all present.
Natalie and Bastien immediately caught everyone’s attention when they finally appeared.
