Chapter 435 - Reason to stop our wedding... (2/2)

This was enough to shut his mouth as he remembered his own wedding.

Veronica smirked at Reuben's expense and exclaimed in a teasing way, ”Eager much… aren't we?”

”Yes baby.. Very much.” Reuben too replied with a smirk without having any kind of hesitation.

It made Veronica shake her head at his childishness but a smile was still plastered on her lips.

The bishop cleared his throat and finally asked the most awaited question, ”Do you, Reuben Smith, take Veronica Lopez, as your lawfully wedded wife, to have and hold, from this day forward, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health, until death do you apart?”

”I do...”

It didn't take even a millisecond for Reuben to answer back confidently, making everyone again chuckle at his antics.

Inhaling a sharp breath, Reuben held Veronica's both hands firmly and confessed while looking into her eyes, ”Ica.. It's needless to say how much of happiness you've brought into my life as my lover. You have brightened my dark world with those bright lights, emitting from your eyes..

Today I'm not going to promise you anything because it's for me to know, so that I can fulfill your every dreams in my own way. But what I can do is to confess my love to you again in front of the Jesus and our close ones..

Baby, my love for you has only grown in every passing second. I just want you to never change and be the way like you are now. Your one smile is enough to bring the monsoon in my dry life. And I wish to spend all of my lives only with you as your boyfriend, fiance, husband and also the father of our children..

I love you baby. I love you with everything I have. You just need to remember one thing baby that… MY HEART BEATS ONLY FOR YOU…”

A teardrop slid down Veronica's eyes which Reuben very softly wiped off from her face before giving her an assuring smile which she returned with her own.

It was now time for Veronica to take her vows as the priest asked her the same question..

”Do you, Veronica Lopez, take Reuben Smith, as your lawfully wedded husband, to have and hold, from this day forward, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health, until death do you apart?”

Veronica too didn't waste any time and said in affirmation, ”I do…”

The hold Reuben had on her arms, had been reciprocated by her this time as she also professed with same amount of intensity, ”Bennie.. You have every ounce of idea that how much your presence in my life meant to me…

Like you, I will also not make any kind of promises on this very special day of our life as I very well know, exactly what you expect from me as a wife. And that is too, keep loving you till eternity until death do us apart..”
