Chapter 219 In the heat of the moment, my beloved fiance accepted Leoâs challenge to shut off his nonsense. So, I took it as the need of the hour and moved on in my life Despite Leoâs disturbance, my engagement ceremony was hit, the pictures came out stunning, surprisingly. The photographers carefully omitted the section where Leo disrupted the peace and sent me a beautiful video, warming my heart.
We watched it together as a family in my villa. My little angels were all smile to see us on the stage.
âMommy, you look like a fairy from heaven in a pink dress.â
Zoe was awestruck by this rare event of my formal dressing, Janeâs condition wasnât different from him too, she snuggled to my chest and demanded coquettishly.
âMommy, you are looking so pretty. I want this same dress at your wedding.
I will be the most important part of the ceremony.â
Jane would be the flower girl, so the list of her cute requests was long. Bright acted like a doting father and assured her.
âWe will buy everything for you, my princess. Daddy will take you to the mall âThat will be awesome!â Henry was relaxed to hear Brightâs confirmation. He sighed in relief.
âI am really tired of following two energetic kids in the mall. They run around freely and wonât listen to me.
Good luck shopping!â
Henryâs statement gave Bright a chance to tease him, he grinned widely.
âGet married before itâs too late, Henry. Raising kids can be a tiring job for an elder.â
âWhat? Elder?
What are you talking about?â
Henry cried out in disbelief, âI am only twentyâseven years old. How can you call me an elder?â
We all laughed at Henryâs dumbstruck facial expressions, it was so fun to mess with him a bit. He glared at Bright and threatened.
âI wonât be your best man at the wedding, Bright. You can find another person for it!â And walked out of the living room as a protest, Bright shot follow him.
up to âGosh, your brother is such a baby, Laura. He canât even take a joke.â
Their Tom and Jerry like friendship showed me a glimpse of our happy future where we would live in harmony as a family, making my heart sing. But my imaginary world was shattered by Zoeâs comment, he sounded worried.
âUncle Henry must wait until the results of Saturdayâs match. The bridegroom hasnât been chosen yet, so how can he be the best man?â
Zoeâs words hit my head with a sledgehammer, bringing me back to reality. I asked him for more elaboration.
âWhat do you mean that the groom isnât decided? Donât you know that I am marrying your daddy?â
âNot anymore!â Jane replied to me and took out her cell phone.
âLook, mommy! Everyone is saying that your groom isnât confirmed.
You can either marry daddy Bright or dad Leo after an ice hockey match.â
She logged into the social media account, the one I wasnât aware of until now, and showed me the trends, quaking the ground below me. A proper media campaign to advertise this match flipped my heart in my chest. I forgot to reprimand my little girl for using social media without my permission, and grabbed her phone.

Chapter 219 Gawking at the screen. I scrolled the posts, reading public opinion about this hullabaloo. It was so hard to believe that this challenge was a top trend on every social media platimni Like, our engagement party was a private event. I didnât invite media representatives to keep our personal life away from cameras. I wanted an occasion solely for us, as a marriage in Wilsonâs family would definitely get plenty of attention later. That was why I brushed off that disruption like an ordinary rift.
But it wasnât like that!
It then dawned on me that Bright and Leo had posted the official statement of their accounts, announcing the face off. And like it wasnât enough, the sports federation also backed up this historical match, naming it as âa final battle of love. That was the hashtag trending across all the platforms!
I checked the tickets online, and they were sold out at double prices within seconds. It seemed like the entire Lakon city was desperate to witness the contest between the two legends.
Utterly flabbergasted. I couldnât keep cool and went to see Bright. Ile was talking to someone on call.
âSponsors are dying to get a fiveâsecond slot during the match, Mr. Spencer. Raise your offer if you wish to secure your place.
I have just rejected Mr. Gayle, who was ready to sponsor my wedding ceremony.â
Gosh!
My fianceâs enthusiasm for a mere idea struck me speechless. I was simply at a loss for words. Bright was a levelâheaded businessman, tackling the matters wisely. Then why was he getting prepared for an ice hockey battle instead of consulting the wedding planners as I suggested?
As soon as the call disconnected, I expressed my unease about this match, hoping for some answers.
âSince when have you started to pay any heed to Leoâs blabbering, Bright? He is an attention seeker, making everything about him.
At least, you shouldnât give into his trickery.â
Bright got serious all of a sudden, his voice was laced with suppressed fury as he spoke.
âListen, Laura!
I am not a saint. There is a limit to my patience as well. Leo is habitual of interfering in our lives, but I wonât allow him anymore.
This needs to end!â
را٠Bright voiced out his anger about Leoâs arrival at the party before, but I didnât catch a whiff of vengeance from it. He was adamant on ending Leoâs topic for once and for all now. He spoke with determination.
âLeo has given me the perfect opportunity to silence him in the rink. So, I wonât miss out on this chance to pop the bubble of his wishful thinking.â This conversation made me realize that there was no use arguing with Bright, he had already picked his path.
So, I decided to stand by him like a good partner. We should stick together for every challenge in our life.
When the day came, I went to watch the final battle of love with my kids. The flock of journalists welcomed me at the entrance.
âMiss Laura, please come with us for a preâmatch media talk. Your two suitors are waiting for you in the press hall.
What the heck!
Bright gave me three tickets for the VIP enclosure and begged me to cheer on him from the stands. This media grilling wasnât a part of our deal. He didnât even bother to give me a headsâup.
As my lovely fiancé had underestimated my patience, I swore to teach him a lesson and agreed to a presser.
âI would love to answer your friendly questions, honorable reporters!â
