Honor and Heartbeat

The wedding venue was filled with an opulent atmosphere, brimming with a strong sense of celebration.

However, the sign at the entrance with the words "Exes and Dogs Not Allowed" was particularly eye-catching.

Sienna Benton looked at the sign, her eyes reddening.

She was supposed to be the bride at this wedding, but now the "ex" referred to her.

She glanced at her white wedding dress, gritted her teeth, and stormed in.

"Groom Antonio Greer, do you take Vanessa Benton to be your wife?" The priest's solemn voice echoed through the venue.

"I do..."

"He doesn't!"

Sienna's heart skipped a beat, and she shouted, interrupting Antonio's response, "I am supposed to be the bride at this wedding!"

She pointed to the man in the wheelchair and said, "Last month, he just proposed to me."

As her words lingered, all eyes in the room turned towards Sienna.

Ignoring everyone, she fixed her gaze on the man in the wheelchair, her reddened eyes filled with resentment.

The man had distinct features, sharp eyebrows, and piercing eyes. Even though he was in a wheelchair, his arrogant aura made him the center of attention.

However, when Antonio saw Sienna, the smile on his lips vanished instantly, his lips pressed tightly together in a cold manner.

Sienna felt a chill in her heart.

"Sienna, are you crazy? This is my wedding! Why are you wearing a wedding dress to ruin it?" Vanessa shouted at Sienna, her eyes glistening with tears.

Vanessa was Sienna's half-sister.

Sienna gritted her teeth and glared coldly at Vanessa, stepping forward. "Vanessa, you're my sister, but you stole my fiancé, and you still have the nerve to say I'm deliberately ruining your wedding?"

"Sienna, Antonio loves me, not you!" Vanessa said, eyes red with grievance.

"Loves you?"

Sienna felt like she had heard the biggest joke. She sneered, "Let me ask you. When Antonio's legs were injured, who stayed by his side day and night to take care of him? When his company was on the brink of bankruptcy, who stood by him, supporting and encouraging him? Where were you then?"

"Sienna, I..."

"Shut up." Anger filled Sienna's mind. She glared at Vanessa and turned her head in disbelief to look at Antonio.

"Antonio, you told me that the person you would marry could only be me. We went through the hardest times together. Just yesterday, you told me to wear a wedding dress and said I'm the most beautiful bride in the world. So why, why is it like this now?"

Sienna's eyes swelled, her voice choked with sobs.

"Sienna, what nonsense are you talking about?" Vanessa's eyes were full of scornful mockery. "You spent my husband's money on fooling around with other men but don't want my husband to find true love, does that make sense?"

Sienna's heart jolted, her eyes filled with disbelief. "Vanessa, do you know what you're saying?"

Sienna stood in front of them, her voice cold and deep.

"Of course I know what I'm saying," Vanessa said, giving a signal to the staff on the right side of the stage. "In a family like ours, we live under the media's spotlight every day. I've warned you many times not to frequent nightclubs and mess around with men, but you wouldn't listen. Look, now you've been photographed..."

"You're lying." Sienna had never been to nightclubs, so how could she have messed around with other men?

"Whether I'm lying, you'll know after watching this." Vanessa looked at the large screen at the venue, the mockery in her eyes evident.

Vanessa's provocation made Sienna's eyes redden. Sienna bit her teeth and looked at the big screen.

In the lavish nightclub, a man and a woman stood at the bar, their posture intimate. Although a bit blurry, it was clear enough that the woman was Sienna.

Sienna's eyes turned red at the sight of the intimate video. She felt her head buzz, feeling dizzy.

It was fake.

The video was fake!

"Satisfied now?" Antonio, who had been pressing his thin lips together, finally spoke.

She turned her head and saw Antonio's disdainful look, as if she were a filthy insect. Sienna's heart sank.

"Sienna, you keep saying you love me, but behind my back, you fool around with other men. Where does that leave my dignity?"

Antonio's voice was cold as he continued, "A woman like you is not fit to be my wife!"

Whispering voices filled the venue, accompanied by contempt and mockery.

She could ignore the opinions of outsiders, but she couldn't be indifferent to the man she loved deeply.

Instinctively, Sienna reached out and grabbed Antonio's hand, looking panic-stricken as she said, "Antonio, this is fake. You have to believe me. I was framed."

Antonio's chiseled face showed no emotion. "The evidence is conclusive, and you still want to argue. Sienna, you really disgust me."

Sienna's head buzzed. She couldn't believe that Antonio would say such heartless words. "Antonio, I love you so much. How could I ever do anything to hurt you? Why don't you believe me?"

"You are not worthy of my trust." Antonio's eyes were ruthless, his voice icy, even with a touch of disdainful mockery.

His attitude was clear. Sienna's heart sank. The man she had loved for so long wasn't even willing to give her a shred of trust.

"Sienna, give up!"

Vanessa smiled, her red-nailed finger resting on Antonio's shoulder, her eyes gleaming with pride. "You think Antonio is incapacitated, but you don't know that we've been together for a long time. Even without this video, he would never marry you."

"Honey, I'm sorry I couldn't be by your side when you were injured, but you know I had my reasons." She said softly, "From now on, no matter what happens, I will never leave you alone again."

"Okay." Antonio hugged Vanessa tightly, as if she were his treasure.

As he finished speaking, Vanessa's eyes were filled with pride and triumph when she looked at Sienna.

"You two..."

Sienna's eyes widened abruptly, her heart feeling like it was being pounded by a heavy hammer, causing a sickening pain.

The successive blows made her angrier. Sienna shouted, "Vanessa, you slut! How dare you seduce Antonio?"

She reached out, intending to slap Vanessa's face hard.

"Sienna!" A force gripped Sienna's wrist. Even though he was in a wheelchair, Antonio didn't seem to be weak. "Get out of my wedding now!"

His cold voice revealed his impatience.

Sienna's heart sank to the bottom. All the strength in her body seemed to be drained instantly, her heart aching, and her vision began to blur.

In the end, she was forcibly dragged out of Antonio and Vanessa's wedding by security.
