Patrick kept his eyes on Cordy even as he continued, "I don't want to force this. I'm tired of it-l admit
that I yearned to marry you, the only woman I've ever loved and the one who makes me want to give
up on my former life... To start anew. I'd admit I was looking forward to this wedding so much I wanted
to make it perfect, so that I won't have regrets. Even so... At this very moment, I regret it."
’’Patrick..."
Tm sorry, Cordy." Patrick apologized.
"No, you don't have to apologize. It's unnecessary..." Cordy murmured, knowing very well that Patrick
was suddenly regretful because she did not want her to be sad.

She did not want to lie to Patrick, not when he was so pure and innocent.
"I'm sorry for embarrassing you in front of so many guests. It's willful of me, ’ Patrick said, and reached
out to take her veil off.
The guests were left stunned, since they did not see a kiss.
It was certainly weird that they were only talking, and the air between them did not exactly look good.
Still, none of the guests dared to say a word and simply watched silently in anticipation of an outcome.
"I can't marry you now," Patrick said, his fingers clenching on her veil.
Cordy shook her head, her tears flowing endlessly.
She had no idea what she could say, only that her chest hurt everywhere.
She really was not indifferent to Patrick, but she had no idea if it was love or gratitude she felt for him.
And being with him without differentiating that was her mistake.
Patrick raised a hand in reflex to wipe her tears away but lowered his hand just inches away.
This was not up to him from now on.
Holding back his misery just then, he turned toward the guests and announced, 'I'm sorry, but today's
wedding is canceled."
The banquet hall erupted in an uproar.
Their relationship was obviously strong, since the incident earlier did not even postpone the wedding.
But now, Patrick was announcing that it was off?
Was he having a laugh?

my mind, and I don't want to get married. I'm sorry, everyone. I'm sorry, Cordy."
Patrick bowed in apology to everyone, but just as he was about to leave, Cordy called out, "Patrick."
He stopped for a moment, clearly still hesitant, but he continued striding away at the next instant.
His gait was determined, and every guest at the hall were trading looks in confusion.
Cordy stared at Patrick as he left, her tears unstoppable.
"Cordy." Quinn walked upto Cordy then.
She wanted to console Cordy but did not know what to say.
It had certainly been a wedding that sent the heart racing.
"It's fine," Cordy said, wiping her tears.
She did not feel abandoned-she just honestly felt that Patrick was the best man the world had ever
seen.
"Let's get you out of here," Quinn said. "The staff will handle the rest."
