Chapter 604
Halsey froze in place, completely stunned. She couldn’t believe what she was seeing. Dwight was really marrying Rachel!
How could this be?
Gilbert sneered. “Do you believe me now? This is Dwight and Rachel’s wedding!”
Halsey shook her head in disbelief, stepping back a little.
Inside, the host walked up to the stage. “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the wedding of Mr. Garner and Ms. Field. Now, I declare the wedding officially begun. Please welcome the bride and groom.”

The lights inside dimmed quickly, and the soft notes of “Wedding March” echoed through the hall. Rachel, arm–in–a Dwight, walked slowly down the red carpet. Together, they reached the altar.
The pastor looked at them. “Ms. Field, do you take Mr. Garner as your husband, to love and cherish him, in wealth or poverty, in sickness or health, as long as you both shall live?”
Rachel blushed and replied, “I do.”
The pastor turned to Dwight. “Mr. Garner, do you take Ms. Field as your wife, to love and cherish her, in wealth or poverty, in sickness or health, as long as you both shall live?”
Halsey heard the sound of her heart breaking, like a knife stabbing deep into her chest. She never would’ve imagined that Dwight would really bring Rachel to the wedding altar.
He was really marrying Rachel.
Gilbert laughed coldly. “Do you see that? Are you convinced now? You’ve been taking care of Dwight’s mother and sister, and he’s marrying another woman. He’s been lying to you. He’s a liar!”
Was Dwight a liar? Was he really marrying Rachel?
Halsey still couldn’t bring herself to believe it. She reached into her pocket and pulled out her phone. She was going to call Dwight.
Gilbert scoffed. “Why can’t you just let go? Why are you still holding on?”
“This is between me and him. It’s none of your business!” she snapped.
Gilbert clenched his fist, feeling a sharp sting. For the first time, he realized that Halsey truly didn’t love him anymore. She was in love with Dwight.
She really, really loved Dwight.
Halsey quickly dialed Dwight’s number.
Inside, Dwight hadn’t even spoken yet when his phone suddenly rang from his pocket. Pulling it out, he saw that it was Halsey calling.
Halsey was calling him.
Rachel looked at him. “We’re getting married right now. Don’t answer it.”
Dwight glanced at the phone in his hand.
Rachel, noticing his hesitation, asked, “Who’s calling you?”
Dwight didn’t answer the question. Instead, he pressed the button to accept the call.
Halsey stood at the door, watching as Dwight picked up the phone. She gripped her phone tightly and immediately asked, “Hey,

where are you right now?”
Her heart was pounding. She prayed, desperately hoping Dwight wouldn’t lie to her. She prayed that he would be honest with
hier.
No matter what Dwight was doing, no matter his reasons, he had to tell her.
She shouldn’t have to stand outside like a fool. Wasn’t love supposed to be about mutual honesty?
Hearing Halsey’s question, Dwight pressed his lips together. He hadn’t expected her to call during the wedding.
What was he supposed to say?
He stayed silent for a few seconds, then replied, “I’m busy right now. Is there something you need?”
