Chapter 94:
The priest handed them the rings to exchange.
As they exchanged rings, he announced that they were now husband and wife.
The entire hall erupted in applause, cheering for the newlywed couple.
Ava bit her bottom lip as tears of joy filled her eyes. She felt someone pat her shoulder. When she turned around, she saw Luke.
“Hi,†Ava replied, her voice choked with emotion.
She was overwhelmed by the joy and contentment flooding her heart.
Luke tilted his head to look into her eyes. “Why are you crying?†he asked, pulling her into a hug.
Since Ian was standing right next to Ava, he watched everything.
His jaw clenched when he saw Luke hugging Ava.
“Is she your sister’s boyfriend?†Cyrus asked Stephen about Luke.
“I don’t know. It’s her private matter. We’re not close enough to share each other’s private lives,†Stephen replied, glancing at Ava and Luke.
Ronald cast a glance at Ian, who looked visibly angry. He smirked and said, “Steph, Luke isn’t that bad. He’s got a reputation on our campus, you know p>
Ian overheard everything his friends were discussing.
He couldn’t understand why he was getting so mad. All he wanted was to move over and snatch Ava away from Luke.
A hand grabbed his arm, pulling his attention away from Ava and Luke.
“Ian, I was looking for you in the hall,†Nova said with a smile.
She had been watching Ian for a while. She saw how he was staring at Ava the whole time. She wanted to approach him, but when the vows were taking place, other people crowded near the stage, so she couldn’t get to him.
Ian simply nodded at her. Nova clenched her fists when she realized he didn’t even spare a glance at her appearance. She had dressed in a striking black gown, hoping to match Ian’s mood, but he didn’t care. All her effort felt wasted.
She turned her gaze to Ava, who looked different today.

I can’t believe it. How can this ugly duckling look so good? I thought she was ugly. Where are her glasses? Why did she let her hair down? Why is she even showing her face? She doesn’t deserve this beauty, Nova’s thoughts seethed with jealousy.
“Why is that nerd crying?†she mumbled, eyeing Ava. She noticed Ava’s friends smiling and rubbing her shoulders in comfort.
“Ava p>
Everyone turned to see the bride and groom coming their way.
“Mom p>
Ava hurried to Angela and hugged her. Harper stood beside Angela, smiling as he placed his hand on Ava’s head.
Nova couldn’t believe her ears.
She’s Gamma Harper’s wife’s daughter! That means she’s now the Gamma’s daughter!
Stephen walked over and hugged his father. Ava released her hug with her mother and let Stephen embrace Angela.
Harper hugged Ava, and when they pulled away, Ava said, “Congratulations, Uncle p>
“Dad,†Harper said, asking her to address him as such from now on.
