"Let go," she said, turning back to him. "I need to clean up your mess." She couldn't imagine what the scene outside looked like now. The wedding had undoubtedly turned into a farce. The bride didn't seem like someone who could tolerate such humiliation; otherwise, she wouldn't have exploded like that. There was no way this wedding was going to happen now, and the groom truly wasn't worth marrying. Even if he had fallen out of love and cheated, it was still better than claiming the stress of planning the wedding had driven him to sleep with another woman.
