“When I was little, my dream was to be your bride when I grew up.”
Hans Borg’s hand trembled, and cigarette ash fell.
“Isn’t it lovely?” William Mina laughed. “You’ve always been the hero in my heart, my father and brother, and my best friend. Getting your blessing means everything to me.”
Hans Borg gazed at the bright full moon in the night sky, silent for a long time.
“Owen, are you there?”
“Yes… always.”
“What are you thinking?”
Hans Borg took a final drag of his cigarette, exhaling white smoke. Then he extinguished it in the ashtray.
“I’m thinking there are no clouds tonight, so tomorrow will surely be a good day.”
And indeed, the next day was clear and cloudless.
The queen, wearing a white wedding dress and escorted by her grandfather, walked on the red carpet. Her veil trailed behind her, held by two children. The stunning bride’s wedding dress caused exclamations from the noble ladies, and the beautiful bridesmaids also received amazed looks.
At the altar, Albert stood handsomely in his formal attire. Marriage can make a man mature instantly, and he now possessed a steadiness he previously lacked, making him even more charming.
Count Linkberg shook hands with the groom and then placed the bride’s hand in his.
Albert led Wilhelmina Mina up to the altar. The Pope smiled at the newlyweds.
“Before God and all witnesses, I swear…”
“I swear!”
“I, William Mina Ossenborg…”
“Albert Selenberg…”
“…truly marry…
…whether in good or bad times, rich or poor…”
“…whether healthy or sick, I will love you, cherish you…”
“…until death separates us!”
“Until death separates us!”
The bells of Saint Michael’s Cathedral rang out, and thousands of white doves flew into the sky. All imperial channels broadcasted the moment the famous newlyweds walked out of the church.
Wilhelmina and Albert held hands tightly on the church steps, waving and smiling at the people. The groom embraced the bride’s waist, and they gently kissed.
Chapter 67 The grand wedding reception lasted all night. After traditional waltzes and group dances, a pop band took the stage, and guests exclaimed with excitement.
The famous rock band “Old Boys,” a group Prince Albert particularly liked, was invited to perform on the Queen’s instructions.
“Is this your surprise for me?” Albert was clearly surprised and touched.
