"Speak up, speak up!" Ella Lacey was like a furious little beast, weeping and stomping her foot.
Marcus Moore was already dispirited.
This wedding, for him, felt like a dream, seemingly within reach yet fleeting.
Yet Dariel Cooper stayed firm, gritting his teeth and threatening Ella, "Listen, you have to marry Marcus tomorrow! Everything is ready! You have no choice!"
With that, he stormed out with Marcus Moore.
At the door, he sternly told Marcus, "Watch her closely, it's crunch time, don't lose hope or let your guard down, she will be yours tomorrow."

Mount Glimmer was lit up with festive lights.
There was a joyful and bustling atmosphere.
Everyone was preparing for tomorrow's wedding.
Ella Lacey was pacing anxiously in her room. Can she rely on what Vermes Marley said?

If he truly comes to save her, Ella couldn't help but find it somewhat ironic.
