Chapter 216
216 – The Bride Without A Wedding
Madeline:
Her arrival was shocking for everyone because she did not come in acting like a guest.
She came in with the cameras on.
It took me back to the time when she had suddenly appeared at the cabin with the live stream on.
“Hello, everyone. We are reporting live from the wedding of the greatest researcher, Madeline, and Alpha Ron,” Sherry announced, holding the mic and swiftly walking through the aisle.
Reaching the platform, I stared at her in confusion. Even Ron’s posture stiffened as he glared at her.
The guests started to whisper among themselves, and I knew this was not something that ever happened.
Even the council leaders looked surprised.
Ron’s grandmother, Lady Riva, began to gesture to Ron, trying to get his attention to ask him what was going on.
“But before the vows, we have a few questions to ask,” Sherry continued, strolling toward me.
“What are you doing here?” Ron questioned, finally stepping in front of me. “Who let you in, huh?” he asked her.
This time his voice was very firm.
The music instantly stopped.
“Oh, I’m so sorry,” Sherry replied with an awkward smile. “I thought you must have already seen the news. It is my right to come and inform you about what is going on and to report to the pack members since it is going so viral p>
The minute she said that, my heart stopped beating. Everything already began to turn cold for me.
“What news?” I asked, stepping out from behind Ron.
t
People in the crowd began to open their phones to check the news.
The sound of notifications spread through the hall.
Then a few guests echoed around the room.
“What are you going to say about the leaked information about your past?” Sherry asked me, lifting her phone to show me the screen.
“What?” I replied, unable to understand what she was talking about.
The murmurs started to grow louder. Some of the guests did not smile anymore.
They looked at me with clear disgust. Then someone spoke from the crowd.
“These seem like diary pages. It has to be Madeline’s. Someone leaked them. Such shameful fantasies she had p>
As soon as those words hit my ears, I realized what was going on.
“Wait, and what is that? Does that mean she is a rogue too? Because it seems like someone is claiming that her mother worked as a whore at the whorehouse,” Silver asked loudly.

“Then how can she marry a pack member? How can she live as a pack member?” she questioned, pretending to be confused, while I understood exactly what was going on.
The diary, the information about my mother, could only have leaked from an unknown source.
My eyes landed on Yuvonne, who had a smirk on her lips.
Her mother looked just as pleased, while my father stared at me with nothing but disgust.
Even Ron turned to look at me in confusion.
“Because my father is a pack member, that is how I am a pack member,” I hissed, trying to keep my voice steady.
“Well, then you should check the internet, because there is another rumor that says your mother lied to your father. He never did any tests. She just left the baby on his door. Who knows if you are even your father’s daughter or a rogue’s, ” Sherry continued.
This was when knots started to form in my stomach. Everything around me began to blur, and I felt dizzy.
My father had treated me terribly my whole life, and I obeyed him because I believed he was my father.
I had always thought he was disappointed in me or upset that my mother left me.
I had made many excuses for his cruelty, but now I stood there listening to people whisper that maybe he was not even my real father.
The ceremony seemed to have been put on hold, and I did not know what would happen next.
My vision started to turn blurry as tears appeared in my eyes.
Even now, after so many years, when I was finally a bride, my wedding day was ruined.
Everyone watched me with disgust, some even wrinkling their noses, looking upset that they had come to attend a whore’s daughter’s wedding.
Then my eyes landed on my father. He stepped forward from his chair and moved ahead to get everyone’s
attention.
As soon as he cleared his throat, everybody turned to look at him.
“It is true,” my father stated confidently, keeping his hands behind his back as if this moment was not destroying me. “I never found out if she was actually mine, but now that there is news out there, I will admit I always thought it was a little sketchy. The timeline was off. ”
The minute he said that, my heart broke at the sound of his voice.
After everything he had put me through, he finally decided to tell me there was a chance he was not even my father.
“Then you should have found out sooner,” I yelled in tears, “so that I would have been freed from your claws and maybe would have found my father p>
I hiccuped as everyone began to hush me. The crowd gestured for me to step back.
“She has the nerve to speak,” one of the ladies hissed.
“That is enough,” Lady Abigail yelled at me. “There is always some drama around you, always p>
Her words made my breath get stuck in my throat. My hands trembled in front of me.

“Anyway, the wedding is cancelled p>
Lord Eldon was the one who announced it, and everyone began to nod as if they agreed it should be cancelled.
