Chapter: 3844
Jessie's hands were shaking as she passed Melissa the ring for Marcus.

Albert couldn't take his eyes off Jessie.

Jessie knew everyone was watching her and that they were aware of her past with Albert but she had to keep it together. The worst was over.

When Melissa touched Jessie's hand, she gave it a reassuring squeeze.

Jessie managed a shaky smile in return.

Melissa felt a weight lift off her shoulders. Holding the ring, she looked at Marcus. He was reaching out for it, his intense gaze almost melting her.

She couldn't look away from him.

After a moment, Marcus grinned and said, "Cat got your tongue? Put it on me."

Blushing, Melissa slipped the ring onto Marcus’ finger. He whispered, “I'U flaunt it at parties and let everyone know I'm a taken man.”

Melissa smiled back.

Seeing her, Marcus felt a twinge of emotion. He gently cupped her face and kissed her deeply.

He kept his cool, not letting his excitement show.

After a long kiss, Melissa tossed the bouquet aside.

In the whirl of excitement, the bouquet landed right in Jessie's hand, leaving her stunned.

James teased, "Looks like Jessie's up next for the altar."

As soon as he said it, James caught on and glanced at Albert and Daisy. No surprise, Daisy looked miserable.

Albert didn't give Daisy a second thought. His eyes were fixed on Jessie.

The atmosphere turned awkward once more. Jessie held the bouquet and said gracefully, "After the wedding, I'm off abroad in the afternoon. I'm hoping to find my Mr. Right overseas."

The crowd erupted in applause, with James leading the cheer.

Jessie leaned in to whisper to Melissa, "My flight's at three. I have to dash."
