?Chapter 560:


    Observing Coen’s avoidance, Norah redirected her attention to Derek and Madeline.


    How serene, she mused. Throughout, she had been an outsider, intruding upon their rtionship like a mere bystander.


    On the screen on the stage, sweet moments between the couple and their joyful photos yed out. Derek knelt before Madeline, uttering heartfelt words of affection, prompting some emotional guests to shed tears. They understood the trials the couple had faced and found sce in witnessing their eventual happiness. Among those aware of Madeline’s troubled past, silent appreciation for the couple’s joyous moment prevailed. Some even reached for their phones to document the asion, capturing its beauty.


    Norah’s gaze remained tranquil as she patiently awaited the unfolding of the lively scene.


    Juliana sighed softly, “I didn’t support their rtionship at first, but who would have thought that after all these twists and turns, they would finally tie the knot?” Norah reflected, indeed, that two individuals destined for each other would inevitably find their way back together, despite the numerous hurdles they encountered along the journey.


    Following Derek’s heartfelt expressions, Madeline proceeded to read her vows.


    Suddenly, a majority of the lights were abruptly extinguished. “What’s happening? A power outage? Why the sudden dimming of the lights?”


    “It seems intentional. See, therge screen at the rear still disys photos and videos.”

    “They could have forewarned us. It caught me off guard.” The lights dimmed, leaving only the stage lights and the vibrant glow of the screen.


    Madeline nced at Derek, puzzled. Was this unexpected twist orchestrated by Derek? It wasn’t included in the rehearsal.


    Derek dismissed it as an impromptu addition by the wedding nning team and didn’t give it much thought. His gaze casually scanned the room, until it met Norah’s eyes in the audience.


    As he observed her impassive face, he couldn’t shake off a faint sense of nostalgia. Was it mere spection or hopeful imagination?


    Was her attendance at his wedding a manifestation of her inability to let him go?


    A peculiar flutter stirred within him, reserved exclusively for Norah. Following Madeline’s pregnancy, he found himself harboring renewed sentiments for her.


    Now, he no longer sought her financial support, as thepany had achieved stability. So, did this mean he actually couldn’t erase Norah from his thoughts?


    Lost in contemtion, Madeline proceeded with her vows, yet therge screen disyed something entirely different.
