Sophia Lawrence has passed a very bitter life journey after eight years of suffering and grudges.
Slowly but surely she also recovered from the huge gaping wound caused by being left without a message by the husband she loved so much.
Now after eight years of struggling from heartbreak and longing that torments the soul, Sophia has finally released her past from her mind and heart.
She also opened a new leaf and buried the beautiful and bitter stories that had been inscribed in her heart, she opened her heart to a new love.
A few years ago, Sophia moved from city A to city C because she had to follow her mother who remarried.
And after a few more years, Sophia moved again to the capital because her stepfather's business was growing rapidly so his new family chose to settle in downtown B.
Because of her intelligence, Sophia got a scholarship at one of the elite universities in the city thanks to her fortitude and patience against all the trials of her life.
And after successfully completing her studies, Sophia was invited to become a permanent lecturer at Peony University which is one of the best universities in country F.
After eight years, she finally decided to marry a man who had filled her heart for a long time, she was Giorgio Alexander.
Ludwig Hotel.
The sun was starting to open up on a beautiful sunny morning, a certain person was busy getting dressed by the stylish and he looked very happy.
"Hmmm... Some will soon become a wife, but I'm sad because I will be single alone". Jennifer looked sullen looking at Sophia's beautiful face from the mirror.
Sophia smiled at her best friend's expression.
"I hope you find the right man soon!" Sophia said as she glanced at Jennifer who was standing behind her.
"I also hope so!". Jennifer hugged Sophia spoiled, she still couldn't believe that Sophia would soon get married even though it was only yesterday that it felt like they were playing and joking in bed together.
Jennifer is Sophia's best friend while in city B, she is a fairly well-known artist at the FM Entertainment agency.
Hotel Hall.
Meanwhile, in the Hotel Hall, it appears that all the guests have arrived, the bride's and groom's families are already there.
"Looks like the show is about to start, I'll tell Sophia to get ready first!" Mrs. Lawrence said, which was none other than Sophia's biological mother.
"Of course, you have to make sure that our child looks beautiful on this happy day!". Said Mr. John, who is Sophia's stepfather.
Even though he is only a stepfather, Mr. John treats Sophia very well.
After that, Mrs. Lawrence immediately walked towards where Sophia was waiting.
Make-up Room.
"Mother?". Sophia smiled when she saw her mother coming.
Mrs. Lawrence smiled back at her son and drew closer, after which she glanced at Jennifer.
"Could you leave us for a bit?"
"Yes". Jennifer said goodbye to Sophia, after which she immediately left Sophia and her mother.
After Jennifer left, Mrs. Lawrence looked down at Sophia who was already looking beautiful with perfect makeup and a white dress that made her look so radiant.
"Honey, are you ready?" asked Mrs. Lawrence as she sat down in the chair next to Sophia.
"Yes". Sophia replied while turning to her mother with a teary look.
"You are beautiful dear! Hope you are happy with your choice!". Mrs. Lawrence said while caressing Sophia's face which was accompanied by tears.
"Seeing you like this makes mother unable to hold back the tears of emotion, I hope that if this is your last marriage, there will be no more pain and sorrow! Hopefully with this marriage, you can completely forget the naughty man who left you with your child". Mrs. Lawrence said again emphasizing the word jerk along with her hideous expression.
Hearing his mother's words, his eyes reddened even more because he knew very well how her mother hated the man she used to love so much.
"This is my happy day. So, mom, don't talk about the past anymore! The good and bad of the past, let it stay there, because it's already beautiful so don't bring it back to this day! I'm happy now and soon I will get married, So stop crying!" Sophia said while wiping the tears on her mother's cheeks.
Mrs. Lawrence immediately nodded and hugged Sophia.
After that, Mrs. Lawrence led Sophia to the room that had been prepared for the bride before she was called out to her wedding altar.
Just then, her co-workers came to visit her, and Mrs. Lawrence immediately came out to give Sophia and her friends a chance to chat.
"Wow... you are so beautiful, Sophia!". Said Chloe, who was the co-worker she was most familiar with.
Sophia smiled and was embarrassed at her compliment.
"Thank you for the compliment!". Sophia said while looking at all her comrades who also congratulated her.
Just then, Sophia's expression changed as she didn't find one of her best comrades. "Is Professor Vio not coming?"
"We've contacted her, but her number is off". Chloe replied with a frown.
Sophia immediately pouted, because she expected Vio to come on her happy day, because she was her best friend?
Just as Sophia was enjoying her chat with her partner, suddenly Jennifer came in breathless. Instantly Sophia and her partner became confused.
"What is wrong with you?". Sophia asked while frowning.
Jennifer tried to catch her breath, after which she held Sophia's hand as she said. "Earlier I accidentally passed the groom's special room, I heard that George had not yet arrived. When they called, the number was not active".
Sophia was shocked that her body was shaking.
"Sophia, please calm down! Maybe Mr. George is stuck in traffic and his cell phone is running out of battery. So think about it!". Chloe said, trying to calm Sophia who was starting to get angry.
Sophia immediately took her cellphone and tried to call George, but his number was not active.
"What's wrong with George? He's not usually like this, I can't just sit around like this. I have to find out!". Sophia thought as she stood up from her seat while lifting her wedding dress.
"Where are you going?". Jennifer asked, holding Sophia's hand.
"I have to find out where George is, I'm afraid something will happen to him". Sophia answered while removing Jennifer's hand from hers.
"Sophia... Please calm down! If you go out it will make the guests look at you strangely!".
"That's right, we should wait a few more minutes huh!". Chloe and her other colleagues also agreed.
For a moment Sophia regained her composure to hear the advice of her friends.
Meanwhile in the Hall, the guests started whispering, because the program had not yet started.
"Mr Ludwig, how is it? Why hasn't George come yet?" asked Mr. John impatiently.
"I'll try to find it, please be patient!". replied Mr. Ludwig who was embarrassed because his son had not yet arrived.
If this marriage failed, then his family name would be bad in everyone's eyes. Moreover, the wedding ceremony was held at his hotel.
Soon after, Mr Ludwig ordered his guards to look for George.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Ludwig panicked because his son did not pick up the phone.
In the same position, Sophia's extended family also looked worried and worried that if this marriage failed it would embarrass their extended family.
Charlotte, who is Sophia's half sister, was very happy and hoped that this marriage would not happen because she and her grandmother really hated Sophia.
Charlotte smiled slyly while grinning at her stepmother as she said. "Why hasn't George come yet? Did he run away? Looks like Sophia will embarrass our family!".
"Just watch out if this marriage is annulled, I will no longer admit she is part of the honorable Hans family". said Charlotte's grandmother furiously.
She is an old woman who is better known as Grandma Hans.
Hearing the words of her mother-in-law and stepdaughter, Mrs. Lawrence is getting worried. Even so she was only able to catch her breath, because she knew that the two of them had never accepted Sophia's presence. Especially when they find out that Sophia will be married to a rich hotelier.
"Oh my God, will my daughter be disappointed again?". Mrs. Lawrence thought with a truly restless feeling.
15 minutes later.
It's been 15 minutes, but George still can't get in touch. Mr Ludwig's bodyguards couldn't find him either.
Mr Ludwig's expression darkened, his face completely smudged by his own son's behavior. He also thought that this marriage was annulled with a heavy heart.
"George... Watch out if you meet! You've made father lose face in front of Mr Jhon and all the guests!" . Mr. Ludwig thought while clenching his teeth.
All the guests were dumbfounded by the announcement and began to clamor for why the wedding was cancelled.
While Sophia felt suffocated at the announcement, she was both embarrassed and annoyed.
Why did George have to be like this on his wedding day?
Jennifer and the others were also sad and hurt.
"Sophia.. I hope you are patient!". Jennifer said as she hugged Sophia.
Sophia was just silent and trying to digest what was going on.
Seeing Sophia's condition, all of her colleagues said goodbye after providing support for Sophia to stay strong.
After her partner left, only Jennifer was with her.
Not long after she was content with silence, Sophia looked up at Jennifer with tears in her eyes.
