Chapter 36: Wedding Preparations

The weeks leading up to the wedding were a whirlwind of activity. Isabel and Alexander were determined to make their wedding a celebration of love and hope, inviting friends, family, and members of the community who had supported them along the way.

One afternoon, Isabel met with her best friend, Clara, to discuss wedding details. "I can't believe it's finally happening," Isabel said, excitement evident in her voice.

Clara smiled, squeezing Isabel's hand. "You deserve this happiness, Isabel. After everything you and Alexander have been through, this is your moment."

Alexander, meanwhile, reconnected with his half-brother David, who agreed to be his best man. Together, they reflected on their past and looked forward to a future of reconciliation and unity.
