Caleb held Lilia's hand, and he patted the back of her hand in satisfaction.
Her every move since she entered Batu city was monitored by drones.
By nine o'clock in the morning, the hot search for Lilia and Jean Widjaya's #Marriage had flooded all media magazines and headlines.
It was just that Lilia didn't know.
Jean goes to great lengths to prepare for the biggest wedding of the century.
At this moment, Lilia was walking on the red carpet of the church with her grandfather in her arms.
Lilia wasn't one to cry, but in a scene like this, she cried.
In the dim vision, she was getting closer to her future husband step by step.
On the seats on both sides, countless familiar faces were watching her.
She could feel those kind eyes and their smiles that were full of blessings.
Even as she walked to the front row of seats, the figure on the right side stood up slowly.
He faced Lilia, with a smile on the corner of his mouth and light in his eyes. He hands the bridal bouquet to her and says, "Lilia, I wish you a happy life."
That's her uncle, Julius!
She took the bouquet, there were many tears on her cheeks. She wanted to wipe her tears, but she let go of her intention.
The moment she saw Julius, Lilia burst into tears again.
Those she loves and cares about... they're all here.
Mellisa wore a dress like a princess for the first time in her life.
Merry plays a bridesmaid when she returns from abroad.
The sons of three powerful families in Surabaya had become the groom's companion, but even when most people called them so, they were already like brothers with Jean.
Everyone from the Mayer Family, the Irwan Family, and the Austin Family from Jakarta were also present.
And ... Jean's 'brothers' from Parma also came.
He knows Lilia too well, he cares about all she cares about, so he does everything for her.
Lilia had never felt that life could be so filled with joy and happiness.
At this time, she walked in front of Jean with a bouquet in hand, and looked at him with tears. In the eyes of Jean Widjaya, she looked like an anger that heaven sent to him.
The man's thin lips lifted a warm smile, his eyes were gentle as he opened his palms and waited for her to come.
Witnessed by the priest, Caleb took his granddaughter's hand and put Lilia's hand in Jean's.
But before that, he grabbed the groom's palm, squeezed it hard and said earnestly, "Jean, from today onwards, I have left Lilia completely to you! Make her happy for the rest of her life!"
Jean grabbed Lilia's hand, and when he pulled her to his side, he respectfully nodded. "Grandpa, rest assured!"
He had known each other for a long time, and he first told Caleb his plan and asked for his blessing.
Caleb clapped the backs of their hands and returned to his seat.
Next to him was Simon in the same suit.
Seeing his granddaughter getting married, he felt so emotional, but after all, he could only see happiness in Lilia's eyes.
At this moment, Lilia was standing in front of the man, she couldn't imagine how ugly she was now.
She had shed too many tears.
She looked at him, her fingertips reached for him and whispered in a low voice. "You are so thin..."
She had not seen him for more than a month, and the man's cheeks were slightly sunken. Even though it didn't spoil his good looks and temperament, it still made Lilia feel depressed.
The man took her hand and raised his thumb to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Their eyes met each other, and the love was very thick in the air.
He asked, "Lilia Mayer, will you marry me today?"
Hearing this, Lilia's tears fell like rain, and she couldn't open her mouth properly because it was filled with sobs.
She cried and nodded, again and again.
"Yes, I want to marry you!"
No matter how strong and arrogant he was, Jean Widjaya couldn't stop his eyes from turning red with tears pooling on the corner.
He restrained his emotions and took his wife to his side. After nodding to the priest, the two of them stood under the cross.
Behind him, the three groomsmen were smiling while the three bridesmaids were crying.
The priest looked at the clock, it was 10:15.
He nodded slightly, looked at the pair in front of him, and he asked, "Jean Widjaya, will you take Lilia Mayer to be your life partner? Be one with her in front of God, love her in good times or bad, rich or poor, healthy or sick? Are you willing to love, always live together in peace and harmony until death do you part, as the Lord has commanded?"
Jean looked at Lilia and answered firmly. "I do!"
Then the priest looked at Lilia and said the same thing.
While crying, Lilia answered, "I do!"
The priest smiled at them with relief. "Now is the time for the ring exchange."
As soon as the words fell, Mellisa walked over from behind, holding two rings in her hands.
Lilia looked at the two rings, and her breath trembled.
The man turned to face her, took her left hand, and put the ring on his wife's ring finger.
He took out a heart-shaped diamond ring. The large diamond was carefully crafted, and after a glance, she placed it on the woman's ring finger gently. The 17 carat diamond was a symbol of his deep love for her.
Lilia lowered her head and stared at the diamond ring, then pursed the corners of her mouth.
This was a testimony of their love, and the imprint carved into their bones.
Lilia looked down, and gently put the ring on for Jean.
As the exchange of rings was over, the priest nodded and smiled. "This rings symbolize the pure love of the groom and the bride, may this ring be a sign of a lifelong love between Mr. Jean Widjaya and Mrs. Lilia Mayer. Now the groom can kiss the bride!"
In front of everyone, the two faced each other, their figures engraved in their eyes.
Jean held Lilia's cheeks in both hands, and slowly bowed.
As their lips touched, there was a burst of beautiful music in the church.
Michael Buble's song – Home became their wedding accompaniment.
Because even though there are a million people by Lilia's side, she will always feel lonely without Jean Widjaya's figure in her life. And today, the figure of the man has returned to her side.
This is also the song she sang for Jean.
As their main wedding song today, it reverberates in every corner of the church.
Lilia tightly gripped the man's wrist. With such a deep kiss, plus the sound of singing, tears fell from the corners of her eyes.
She closed her eyes tightly, but did not see the corner of the man's eyes which were also teary.
'Falling in love with you is my destiny…'
Day and night, despite the wind and rain, they would live the rest of their lives together.
Inside the church, everyone clapped for them.
There are so many people who love Lilia Mayer, but there is only one special person who can live in her heart, and it's Jean Widjaya.
He had rented this entire resort and arranged a surprise wedding for her.
He personally designed a unique wedding dress for her, making her the most beautiful bride ever.
He personally calls every family, friend, best friend and brings everyone to their wedding.
The wedding took place at 10:15, because she was ten when she met that fifteen years old boy.
