Half an hour later...
All the guests were present. The host livened up the atmosphere on the stage and invited Ian and Greta to make a speech.
"Dear friends, today is the engagement of my son, Davon, and my daughter-in-law, Abbigail. I represent their parents to show my sincere gratitude and warm welcome..."
Just as Ian finished his words, the audience burst into thunderous applause.
He was not as humble as he was when he begged for mercy in front of Kaia last night. He was in high spirits as if nothing had happened last night.
"As the father of the groom, I sincerely wish my son and my daughter-in-law a happy marriage. I hope that you will respect each other from now on, share the joys and sorrows, and be happy for the rest of your lives."
Everyone applauded again with smiles and blessings on their faces.
Below the stage, Davon and Abbigail looked at each other with deep affection in their eyes.
