Chapter 388 - The Reception (1) (1/2)

The reception after the wedding had a lively atmosphere. There were less than fifty people yet they were all people whom Samantha and Daniel wanted to see and celebrate their special day with.

They were in the garden of the resort. The place was decorated with lots of flowers, leaves, candles, and lights. The colors white, green, cream, and blush pink blended perfectly together. This was how Samantha envisioned her wedding and with the help of her friends Hannah and Becca, everything was made possible.

A live band entertained their night and with the calm weather, everything was romantic and magical.

Daniel took Samantha's hand and brought her to the platform in the middle. Their guests had just finished eating when they saw the newly married couple on their first dance.

The band started playing a song by Ryann Darling entitled ”I Choose You” to serenade the loving couple.

With Daniel's right hand and Samantha's left holding together, he placed her right hand on his shoulder while he put his other hand on the small of her back. Bringing their bodies close together, she looked up at him and they gazed into each other's eyes as they began to sway slowly from side to side.

”Have I told you how beautiful you look tonight?” Daniel muttered.

”Just tonight?”

”Especially tonight…”

”Hmmm… you too, love. You're beautiful.” A small, sweet smile appeared on her face. ”I could dance with you like this forever .”

”We should… we should do this all the time,” he responded. And that was the beginning of their promise, they would commemorate their wedding night every year dancing to this song — or even on ordinary nights or days when they feel like it.

The two of them leaned on each other's side of the heads while they remained quiet as they enjoyed the soft and romantic music.

A little later, the newly wedded couple was joined on the dancefloor by their parents followed by Hannah and Seo Joon, and Becca and Liam.

The love songs came to an end and replaced by upbeat music where the rest of the guests enjoyed.

Samantha sat on a chair to rest her feet while Daniel was with his friends. She was happily observing her friends and family on the dancefloor when Nathan and Alexander walked up to her.

”Congratulations, Mrs. Cho,” they greeted.

”Hey… thank you so much for coming.” Samantha got up and gave them both a hug. She's been very thankful to these two men who had always been really nice to her.

Despite the fact that Nathan was still in love with Samantha, he knew that he could never have her again so he was now back in the market, ready to date again. But he'll always think of her as the one that got away.

Alexander, on the other hand, was becoming pretty serious with his girlfriend as he even brought her to the wedding.

The three of them talked for a while before Gael came to her side and the two other gentlemen walked away.

”Congratulations, may I have this dance?” Gael offered a hand in which Samantha did not see the reason why she should refuse.

”It would be an honor,” Samantha responded.

Placing her hand on his, the two of them danced and talked about random things. She believed that it was not impossible to be friends with this man.

”Sam, I know that you may probably never need it knowing that your husband is a very capable man but… if ever you do, if ever you need anything at all… Don't hesitate to call me.” Gael told her with a serious but gentle expression.
