The wedding ceremony was about to begin.
After greeting the guests in the main hall, Adrian made his way to the dressing room. With both of their parents gone, he had decided to walk Vivian down the aisle himself.
When he reached the door, he paused to straighten his appearance.
"Has Vivian come out at all?"
"No, sir."
He nodded in relief.
Just as he reached for the doorknob, he hesitated and pulled his hand back.
"Vivian, open the door. The ceremony is about to start."
No answer came from inside. His brow furrowed. He knocked harder.
"Vivian?" His expression darkened.
The guard beside him was drenched in sweat. "Sir, the five of us have been here the whole time. Mrs. Vaughn definitely never came out. She never even opened the door..."
Adrian no longer had the patience to listen
