Billionaire Defiant Wife

Others waiting outside the door all came in. Pop! The colorful ribbons went off and fell on the ground like fireworks.

There were all kinds of voices.

"Wow, the bride is gorgeous!"

"Come on, and it's time for the bridegroom to pick up his bride!"

"James, are you frozen?"

Everyone was laughing. Jessica slightly looked up and into James's deep eyes.

He was gazing at her.

He really was so obsessed with watching Jessica that he forgot everything else.

The best man slightly pulled Jessica's sleeves.

James came back, and his handsome face got red. He walked over, bent over, and reached out his strong arms to pick up Jessica around her waist.

He only took one step, and Avery said, "The shoes. Jessica didn't put on her shoes."

James came back and put Jessica gently down on the bed. He had one leg knelt on the ground, held her fair and small feet in his hands, and grabbed the high-heels to put them on for her.

He stroked Jessica's tender skins with his coarse fingers. It generated circles of ripples in Jessica's heart. She looked down at him in laughter and saw his ears got red.

Was he getting...shy?

After Jessica's shoes were put on, James picked her up again. The women looked at his handsome face, and their look was sparkling. They were checking him with a teasing look.

James felt his face got stiff, and he started getting unnatural. He picked Jessica out of the room.

The wedding ceremony officially started.

All the guests were on the viewers' seat on either aisle, leaving a red carpet in the middle. In all the blessings and laughter, James and Jessica walked down the aisle and to the priest.

Jessica had a white wedding veil on her face. She slightly turned around to look at James, saying, "James, your face got red. I saw it."

How could James, the proud and successful man, ever admitted he was getting shy. He said with a deep voice, "I'm not getting shy. I'm getting hot."

Then James reached out his big hands and touched her fingers. Then he wrapped her small hand in his.

James held Jessica's hands.

Jessica whispered, "James, your hand is very sweaty."

Hmm...

Jessica did hold a sweaty hand.

Jessica said, "Is that also because you're getting hot?"

James looked around at Jessica. Her eyes were as bright as the sky full of stars. It was playful and teasing.

It tasted sweet, and James could feel it entering his heart.

James looked away because he was feeling embarrassed.

One second, two seconds, after three seconds, he looked around at Jessica again. He loved her playful look and could not bear to look away.

And Jessica was still looking at him.

James coughed and whispered, "Fine. I'm really nervous."

He finally admitted it.

Jessica smiled and made a joke, "What's there to be nervous about? When you got so bold and had sex with you, why didn't you get nervous?"

James smiled, and it was a perfect smile, saying, "It's not the same."

How could it be?

Back then, he wanted her to be his. But now, he wanted her to be his forever. How could it be the same?

James looked at Jessica's face and started to get tender.

Followed James and Jessica were some flower children. Cher was one of them bearing a flower basket.

Cher wore a white lace dress and a pink hairpin made of flowers. Her face was so delicate like a Barbie. She was born in beauty, and she would grow to be a really gorgeous woman.

She followed James and Jessica with her small body. The serious look on her face made Avery laugh. She wanted to come over to kiss her.

Evan also looked at Cher. The flower boy next to Cher reached out to hold her hands. Evan was about to take Cher back when Avery stopped him.

Avery said, "It's just a little boy and little girl. It doesn't matter.

Evan said, "But he is a boy. I can't have that."He stared at the boy's chubby hand sharply, which was holding Cher's hand.

Avery said, "They're just kids. What are you gonna do after Cher grows up and gets married?"

Evan didn't say anything. Obviously, he didn't think of the question. But he couldn't handle the thought that one man would take his baby girl away from him.

Avery said, "You can't let her stay with you all her life."

Jessica and James came in front of the priest. He started saying, "Mr. James Moore, will you take Miss Jessica Clifford as your wife, and always promise to love and be faithful to her in sickness or health, wealth or poorness, until death do you part?"

James said, "Yes, I do."

The priest went to Jessica, "Miss Jessica Clifford, will you take Mr. James Moore as your husband, and promise to always love and be faithful to him in sickness or health, wealth or poorness until death do you part?"

Jessica looked at James, saying gently, "Yes, I do."

The priest said, "I pronounce you are husband and wife. The bridegroom can unveil the bride's wedding veil."

James turned around and lifted up his fair fingers to slowly reveal Jessica's wedding veil.

Jessica's beautiful face was what all James could see.

He slowly and gently held her face and kissed her on the lips.

As he was about to kiss, the priest said, "Sir, I have not said you can kiss the bride now."

James was speechless.

Ha-

Everyone burst out laughing.

They started teasing James.

"James, you're in such a hurry. If you're so anxious to kiss the bride, what are you gonna be after you enter the wedding room?"

"James finally gets to marry Jessica. He's really in a rush."

Since everyone was making jokes, James didn't know what to do. Kissing wasn't okay; neither was not kissing. Then he heard gentle laughter. Jessica leaned against his broad shoulders.

James could be so cute, Jessica wondered.

Hearing Jessica's smile, James felt relieved and stopped frowning. He held her gently in his arms.

The next part of the wedding was throwing the bouquet. A lot of unmarried socialites came over.

"Over here, bride!"

Avery grabbed Gabrielle as fast as she could, and they came over as well.

But at the same time, a strong hand reached out and grabbed Avery's thin wrist. Avery was pulled over and landed softly in Evan's warm and broad chest.

Evan said, "You already have a husband and a daughter. Is it fun to fight for the bride's boutique?' Evan held Avery in his arms tightly and frowned.

Avery smiled. She had no intention to fight for the bouquet. She only wanted Gabrielle too.

Avery said, "Let go of me for a second."

She tiptoed to watch Gabrielle.

Slap!

Evan slapped Avery on her bouncy butt.

It was gently in a flirting way. After all, Avery was pregnant. He couldn't use too much force.

Avery glared at Evan.

Evan said, "Behave yourself. Don't try to fight for the bouquet."He then held her in his arms.

Avery pouted and wouldn't stay put. She turned around and held his face with her tender hands, 'I'm not gonna try and grab the bouquet for myself. But if Gabrielle didn't get it, you would be screwed."
