Love beyond the mask (Whitney) novel Chapter 939

Endora's eyes flashed with a ferocious glint as she was led away by the police in a daze, and Barclay was taken away as well.

Mrs. Doonan was a mess, sobbing and begging Winston to talk to the police, pleading they couldn't just take her precious son away!

Mr. Doonan left the church with a grim expression, not saying a word.

The guests were all over the place, the atmosphere chaotic, but Parker's next move brought everyone to a hushed silence.

Eyes widened as they saw his handsome face cloaked in shadow, his piercing eyes hidden behind stylish glasses, revealing nothing of his inner turmoil as he approached Tiana!

He confidently took the hand of the woman in the pristine white dress. She wore no makeup, yet her simple elegance and vulnerability were striking. Tiana, still reeling from the shock, looked up into his strong, defined hand as he intertwined their fingers.

Her heart, which had been still, began to flutter with life, the confrontation with Endora paling in comparison to the shock of Parker's gesture.

What was he doing?!

Her lips parted slightly, Tiana felt the weight of many eyes upon her, as the tall man before her tightened his grip on her fingers, sealing them together with determination.

His scent was familiar and yet imposing.

Trying to break free, Tiana whispered, "Parker, what are you doing? Everyone...is watching."

He glanced down at her, his gaze cold. Was she really that afraid to be close to him?

Perhaps it was out of sheer hatred, but his eyes, filled with uncontrollable emotion, flared with anger.

Leading her forward, Parker moved them back towards the altar.

"Parker...Parker?" Tiana, realizing where he was heading, panicked, tapping on his arm, "The wedding's over, let me go."

The minister, holding the Bible, furrowed his brow in confusion at the groom's actions.

His bride had just been taken away by the police.

And now, he was holding...his brother's bride.

The minister was visibly uneasy, addressing the man in the crisp white suit, "Mr. Parker, what is this?"

"The ceremony will continue!" Parker's voice was firm, leaving no room for argument.

His tone was even, betraying no emotion, yet his statement sent a shockwave through the church.

Even Whitney, who had rushed back after seeing Endora taken away, and Ashton, who was with Cherry, were taken aback.

They exchanged looks, both seeing the surprise and a hint of excitement in each other's eyes.

Ashton smirked slightly. Parker, usually so reserved, was making a bold move. He must have been planning this for a long time!

The guests were in an uproar: "Is this for real? Am I hallucinating? Did Parker just say the ceremony will continue?"

"How can it? We've got a groom and his brother's bride, that's not a match."

"You don't get it, he's obviously intending to go through with the ceremony with Tiana!"
