Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Chapter 605

Spencer didn’t realize how much time women typically took to get ready, but Charlize knew exactly how long she would need.

Although there was still over an hour left, it might not be enough time if she wanted to dress up nicely.

Luckily, Juliette had hired an excellent makeup artist. After Charlize went through the events of the morning and took a nap, her makeup was somewhat worn but still fixable. She didn’t have to remove everything and start from scratch.

Charlize spent over ten minutes reapplying her makeup, but she had to undo her hairstyle and redo it to get it just right.

Fortunately, during her university days, Molly and the others used to enjoy braiding her hair. Naturally, Charlize had learned how to braid from them, so it wasn’t a difficult task for her. However, she hadn’t braided her hair formally in years, which made it take over half an hour to get her hair looking presentable.

As a bridesmaid, Charlize had brought along her own makeup and beauty products. However, she hadn’t packed any hairspray, and without it, she felt that her hairstyle, though nicely braided, didn’t look as pretty as she had hoped.

To her surprise, the hotel had men’s hairspray available. Charlize used it, and it worked wonders.

It was past seven when she was finally done.

Charlize quickly changed into her shoes and put on her earrings. “We’re going to be late, Spencer.”

She sounded really anxious.

Glancing at his watch, Spencer stood up from the couch. As she hurried over, Charlize accidentally stepped on the hem of her dress, causing her to lose balance. Quickly, he reached out and steadied her.

Charlize fell into his arms.

“Be careful.”

Charlize pulled at the hem of her dress as her cheeks turned pink. “Mm.”


Juliette’s wedding was undeniably grand as she was said to have spent one hundred thousand on the decorations alone.

There were a total of twenty tables, each accommodating ten guests. The hall was spacious, with the tables set at a considerable distance from each other.

Spencer and Charlize were assigned to sit at the same table. However, as Charlize was the bridesmaid, she needed to accompany the bride during her entrance. Hence, they went their separate ways after entering the hall.

As Charlize’s boyfriend, Spencer was naturally seated at the best friends’ table under Juliette’s arrangement, which was placed close to the main table. The adjacent table was reserved for the bride’s close relatives.

Charlize arrived late, so when both Molly and Shanny gave her an amused look without saying anything, she began to feel guilty.

She then realized she hadn’t done anything that warranted her to feel guilty as all she did was take an afternoon nap.

There were a total of five bridesmaids, including Charlize, Molly, and Shanny, as well as a childhood friend of Juliette and Juliette’s cousin. Additionally, there were five groomsmen. Including the bride and groom, there were six pairs in total.

Following local customs, they needed to have even numbers for the bridal procession as it was considered an auspicious sign.

Before the bride and groom made their entrance, the bridesmaids and groomsmen were assigned the task of scattering flower petals along both sides of the red carpet.

Charlize, with her fair skin and stunning appearance, was positioned at the very front, right in front of the stage by the wedding photographer.

Her good looks would undoubtedly make her a valuable addition to the wedding video.

From her vantage point, Charlize could see Spencer seated diagonally across from her. They might be around eight meters apart, but Spencer’s gaze was fixed on her.

Charlize met his intense stare as she tightened her grip on the flower basket.

Oh, I feel shy. What should I do?

During the morning’s events, some guests had already noticed Charlize. She was the prettiest bridesmaid, though her looks were not strikingly beautiful. Instead, she had an endearing charm, akin to an adorable next-door neighbor.

Her appearance appealed to people of all ages, and even if they didn’t particularly like her, they wouldn’t grow to hate her.

As Charlize had left with Spencer that afternoon, some guests inquired and found out she had a boyfriend. Upon learning this, they stopped entertaining any hopes about her being available.

However, the bride’s family didn’t seem to know about that. After sending Charlize off this morning, they didn’t follow the bridal procession to the groom’s place and instead remained at the bride’s place for a quick bite.

Consequently, most of the bride’s relatives were aware of the presence of a pretty bridesmaid, but they had no knowledge of her having a boyfriend.

Coincidentally, Juliette had two male cousins who were still single. One was twenty-eight years old, while the other was thirty. Both were fair-skinned, tall, and slender. They were absent during the morning’s events but happened to be seated at the relatives’ table during the wedding banquet that evening.

Naturally, their parents were with them.

Juliette was the only child of her parents. Her mother was also an only child, but her father had siblings.

As Charlize stood in her designated spot, Juliette’s aunts and cousins got a good look at her.
