Father Bonaparte or Uncle Wu

October 22, 20XX (Tuesday)

Xue Manor & Zhao Manor

Xue Mei Lin was not disappointed; she told herself that line many times. When she was married and walking down the aisle with Uncle Wu, Mei Lin was searching the crowd for the man in Grandma Xue's phone together with her mother. Mei Lin had thought that he would be in the crowd watching because she was still his daughter even if she was sent into the orphanage. She had not expected her father to hate her too much that he would not come to her wedding that was held in the Manor of his wife's family.

When the ceremony was done, Mei Lin looked around for Jerome Bonaparte, but again he did not show up. Mei Lin reminded herself that she was not disappointed. She had survived living in the orphanage without him, she had made a living and became successful without him, and she had lived her life without him. He was not needed on her wedding day.
