Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 282 The Punishment Game

Anne's brows furrowed in disapproval at Kevin's words. Still, it wasn't as if there was still anything she could do. They had already begun. Now it was all up to Mark not to let their little prank turn into a disaster on his own wedding day.

"I hope he finds Rose quickly..." Anne sighed worriedly.

Kevin said nothing, but a wicked grin fell on his lips. What Anne was wishing for was impossible. He and Sam hade made sure of it. He was definitely looking forward to what was going to happen next, but he had wisely kept his mouth shut.

Mark groped blindly as he set out to find his bride. The darkness was so thick that he could not even see his own fingers. Footsteps rang all around him, and he could tell from each person's scent whether they were a man or a woman, but so far, there had been no sign of Rose.

'Damn it,' he cursed in his head. He was usually a calm and composed person, but this game was wearing his patience thin. As he continued trying to look for Rose, he wondered if Sam had been holding a personal grudge against him for him to pull this kind of trick at his wedding.

The next moment, light flooded the room. Mark squinted against the sudden onslaught of brightness. In front of him, sitting on the high platform, was Rose. Ah yes, she was wearing a wedding dress. It would not have been comfortable for her to hide among the crowd. Briefly, Mark was thankful for Sam's thoughtfulness.

However, his gratitude was short-lived. "Mr. Mark, just earlier, that was only a trial. Now, the real game begins," Sam said with a smile.

As he spoke, the staff distributed handkerchiefs among the guests.

Everyone was filled with confusion. Nobody knew what was going to happen next.

Soon enough, all of the staff had finished their task. Sam continued, "Now, everyone. You each have a handkerchief in your hands. Before we proceed, I would like to assure you that the staff here will ensure everyone's safety, so there is no need to be nervous. Then, please tie the handkerchief around your head to cover your eyes."

The guests did as they were told, and once again, the game began. This time however, Mark was feeling more confident. He already knew where Rose was, and this was his home. He could navigate it perfectly well even with closed eyes.

He finished securing the handkerchief around his head with a smile. From a distance, Anne quietly watched as Mark walked towards the direction of Rose's seat.

Her eyes had also been covered. The next moment, she was taken away by the staff and was replaced with another girl.

Anne's eyes widened in horror as Mark got closer to where Rose had been. She turned her eyes sharply to Kevin and said accusingly, "This is your idea of fun?"

This might be more trouble than what it was worth. Anne felt bad for both Rose and Mark to be toyed with like this at their own wedding.

But Kevin was unfazed at her anger. "It's not a big deal. Besides, Rose is your sister. You should let Mark suffer a little. How can you let Rose marry him so easily?" he said with a smile.

Anne had wanted to answer back, but even she thought that Kevin had a point. Rose was her sister, and even if she had chosen to marry Mark of her own accord, Anne thought that their marriage had been a little too hasty.

Mark fumbled up the stairs. After circling around twice, he finally found the place where Rose had been.
