A Relentless Pursuit for Love

Chapter 7

“Jace, what do you think of this? Does it look nice on me?”

Sienna, in a wedding gown, stood in front of Jace in the bridal boutique. She was beaming. She was the perfect definition of someone who was about to get married to the love of their life.

Her once pale face looked especially radiant today.

For the sake of gaining favor with her future mother-in-law, Sienna had her curly long hair straightened. For a brief moment, Jace saw traces of Sage Luz in Sienna.

Jace remembered that Sage was always smiling when they first got together. However, after long periods of being ignored and treated coldly, her smiles seemed to have faded away.

Jace found his thoughts drifting. It was as if a vault in his mind had suddenly been opened, and all the things that he had never thought about came rushing out. For example, he suddenly recalled that he and Sage had never had a wedding.

Jace had simply treated Sage as inconsequential since she was just someone he had randomly chosen to be his wife. At that moment in his life, he had been bound to his bed. He was unable to move as his arms and legs were encased in casts. He had not even been there to receive his marriage certificate, let alone have a wedding.

Jace did not understand why Sage Luz would choose to marry him. Did she do it for his wealth or was it for the status and prestige that came with being Mrs.Yuriel?”

“Jace?”

Seeing Jace’s mind elsewhere, Sienna walked over to him and repeated her question. “What do you think of this dress?”

Only then did Jace come back to his senses. A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, and he answered, “It looks amazing on you.”

Feeling pleased, Sienna grinned as she adjusted the gown around her waist and said to the designer, “It’s still a bit loose here, and it doesn’t bring out the shape of my waist. Is it possible to tighten this part?”
