Chapter 1287
“I just want to take her away!” Zephyr took his footsteps and walked toward Riley step by step.
The security guards of the Griffin family wanted to stop Zephyr, but they stopped after seeing Bruce wave his hand.
Looking at her husband’s move, Peach couldn’t help but whisper, “Are you really going to let Zephyr take Riley away?”
“If she really leaves with Zephyr, then it can be seen that her feelings for Nic are not very deep. Today’s wedding is naturally canceled,” Bruce said in a low voice.
“Well… What if she didn’t leave?” Peach asked curiously.
“If she hasn’t left, then… She is Nic’s wife and my sister-in-law. The Griffin family would naturally protect her for life!” Bruce said.
So Peach understood that her husband’s intention was to see how deep Riley’s feelings were for Nicholas. Now, the appearance of Zephyr was undoubtedly the best test.
Zephyr walked to Riley. At this moment, looking at her in a wedding dress and delicate makeup, he was in a trance as if in a dream.
In the past, he had dreamed that she would become his bride in a wedding dress.
But now, she was wearing a wedding dress and standing in the cemetery.
“What are you doing? Why do you stand here in a wedding dress?” Zephyr said, glancing at the ring she held in her hand again. “What’s this ring for?”
“It has nothing to do with you, Mr. Scott. This is the cemetery of the Griffin family. Please leave.” Riley said coldly.
“I can leave, but I will take you away with me!” Zephyr said, holding the wrist of Riley’s right hand. “Riley, come with me. I have many words to tell you.”
Riley was stunned. She hadn’t heard him call her that for many years!
When she was in a psychiatric hospital, she wished she could hear someone calling her like this. But no!
She was just more disappointed and desperate every day.
But now, when Riley heard him calling her like this, she had no feeling at all.
“I won’t leave with you. Today is my wedding to Nicholas. You’d better leave now, or I will ask the security guards here to pull you away directly!” Riley said coldly.
Zephyr’s pupils suddenly contracted, and his whole body stiffened. “What did you say? Wedding?!”
“Then Mr. Scott think why I’m wearing a wedding dress, and what does this ring for?” Riley asked sarcastically.
Zephyr looked at the person in front of him blankly, then turned his head again and looked at the tombstone in front of one side.
It was not until now that he could really see the words on the tombstone and saw the words “Wife Riley”!
“Are you going to marry Nicholas?” Zephyr asked in disbelief.
“We are already married.” Riley corrected.
“You married a dead man, Riley. What are you thinking about?” Zephyr asked, and there was a trace of fear in his voice that he hadn’t noticed himself.
“Although Nicholas died, he has always been living in my heart. He save me with his life. I married him. What’s wrong?” Riley answered.
“So, are you going to repay him in this way?” Zephyr said anxiously, “If you just want to repay this kindness, I can help you. You can do it in other ways…”
“It’s not to repay the kindness of saving lives!” She interrupted him, “In fact, I love Nicholas, and marrying him is the biggest wish for me.”
Zephyr was stunned.
He thought, ‘She… loves Nicholas?!
Once, she said that I was the one she loved all her life! But now, it is Nicholas whom she loved!’
Suddenly, a burst of pain surged in Zephyr’s heart. Then the pain spread to every inch of his body.
“You… love Nicholas?” He murmured, holding her wrist with his fingers by force.
Riley frowned. Her wrist hurt so much that she couldn’t break free at all.
“Yes, I love Nicholas. Can you let me go?” She said coldly. The indifference and alienation in her eyes hurt his heart even more.
“But you once said that you loved me! You said you would love me for the rest of your life!” Suddenly, Zephyr hugged her in his arms as if he were holding the most important treasure of himself. He was afraid of losing her.
Riley was caught off guard and leaned against Zephyr’s chest, feeling the ups and downs of his chest at this moment as well as the fierce heartbeat.
She used to like the feeling that he hugged her tightly, which would make her feel loved by him.
But now, his hug no longer made her have the slightest attachment.
“Zephyr, how dare you say such words? The thing I regretted the most was that I had loved you. If the one I loved was Nicholas, how good it would be!” Riley said.
“You… regretted it?” Zephyr only felt as if his body was wrapped in coldness.
“Yes, I regret it. Zephyr, you hear me clearly. For the rest of my life, I wil” never love you again. The person I love is Nicholas, and you are just a man who once betrayed me!” She said every word clearly.
Zephyr shook his body for a moment.
Riley pushed him away and turned to Bruce. “Mr. Griffin, please ask someone to take this man out of the cemetery. I don’t want this person to continue disturbing my wedding with Nicholas.”
Bruce’s eyes flashed, and then he said, “Okay.”
At his signal, the security guards of the Griffin family walked to Zephyr and surrounded him. “Mr. Scott, please leave.”
They asked Zephyr to leave.
And Riley was facing the tombstone again at this moment. She held the wedding ring with her incomplete right hand and slowly walked towards the ring finger of her left hand.
Zephyr wanted to stop her, but he was blocked by those guards.
No, he couldn’t let Riley marry Nicholas, a dead man, like this!
He loved her. In fact, the person he loved was always her!
“Don’t wear it. You can’t marry Nicholas. Hendrick is your child, and he is our child!” Zephyr almost shouted this sentence with all his strength.
The ring had been put on the ring finger of Riley’s left hand. But at the same time, Riley also raised her head and looked at Zephyr in shock.
“It’s true, Hendrick… My son, Hendrick, the child you saved by donating blood, is not Harriet’s child, but our child!” Zephyr only felt bitter when he said this.
