1. The Wedding Day

A luxurious bridal room strewn with flowers adds a sense of wonder to the eyes that look at it. This is the groom's room.

"Perfect! I'm always handsome in any clothes."

A man was getting ready in front of a large mirror. He is the handsome and sensational young master of the Rodriguez family. He was not alone, but with 2 other men who stood behind him faithfully.

"Young Master Lexus, you're really dashing and handsome in a tuxedo!"

The exclamation came from one of the men standing behind the Lexus. He is Seth Adams. He worked as personal assistant for Lexus since last 5 years. However, Lexus did not flinch. He was indeed a man, who wasn't concerned about the opinion of others.

"You really look radiant, Young Master!"

George Micheal, the 50-year-old man who owns Gloria Fashion as well as a designer of bridal wear worn by Lexus and his bride-to-be. He made a comment.

"Seth, open the door! I'm gonna go see Steffy."

After feeling himself perfect, Lexus walked towards the door. He left with Seth in long strides.

Lexus and Steffy have been engaged for 6 months, and today is their wedding day. Everyone looks happy, except for Lexus.

"You're impatient, Young Master."

Seth teased Lexus while watching his curled fingers. He had just polished his fingernails with the latest model, especially for the Lexus wedding.

"Shut your mouth! Get yourself a girl to date, Seth! Because I'm sick of seeing you always flirting with handsome guys!"

Of course, Seth was getting more and more persistent in teasing Lexus. Because his master is a handsome man, who becomes a benchmark for him in finding a partner. Having a different sexual orientation often makes Seth even more curious about male creatures.

"Oh, my gosh! What a pity, I long for a mate like you, Young Master …."

Seth hastily covered his mouth. He saw his boss's right hand raised high. He also saw that Lexus had opened the door of the room in front of him a little.

"Did you hear that, Seth?"

Noise came from inside the bride's dressing room. Lexus deliberately wants a separate room because he prefers a room that is more private. Both of them were silent, listening carefully to the screams and anger of a woman.

"Wipe your tears, Stella! You don't even deserve to be side by side with Lexus in Steffy's place! You're neither beautiful nor smart like your twin sister!"

The voice came from a blonde-haired woman, who was wearing the most luxurious maroon dress in her entire life. She is Sophia Drechsler, the mother of the twins.

Steffy Drechsler and Stella Drechsler are twins in the Drechsler family. They come from Germany and now live in London, England.

"At least, I didn't put a stain on the Drechslers's faces."

Stella replied to Sophia boldly despite her shaking knees.

"Don't be presumptuous, Stella!"

Sophia's tone rose with irregular ups and downs.

"Steffy ran off on the wedding day with her mistress. You and Dad sacrificed me to take her place. Where's your conscience, Mom?! Have my sacrifices not been enough?!"

Stella still replied to the words that came out of Sophia's mouth. This time, she was truly furious and couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Damn!"

Sophia felt Stella getting bolder towards her. She walked quickly towards the dressing table where Stella was sitting.

"It seems you forgot your manners when talking to parents, Stella."

Sophia's hand flew through the air and was ready to land on Stella's left cheek. The show will be more interesting, right?

Bang!

The two of them were startled when they heard the sound of the door opening wide. They saw 2 men walking in with tense faces.

"Young Master Lexus, why did you come here?"

Sophia was taken aback. She hurriedly drew closer to Stella while whispering, "Hide your face now and wipe away your fake tears!"

Lexus had no intention of answering Sophia's question. He kept his eyes on Stella, who was lowering her head.

'Is she Stella? Steffy's twin sister the Drechslers never told about? I've never even met her,' thought Lexus, he was watching Stella carefully.

"Is my bride ready? And oh, where are the makeup artists and stylists?" asked Lexus, he looked to his right and left. He found no one, other than Stella and Sophia.

'Oh, my gosh! What shall I answer?'

Sophia was really clumsy. She was looking for the right answer for Lexus.

"They're out, but they'll be back soon, Young Master," answered Sophia.

Lexus pulled out a chair and sat there quietly. He would rather not take his eyes off Stella.

"Young Master, are you thinking what I'm thinking?"

Seth whispered in Lexus's ear. Then, the master nodded.

"I'll do something, Young Master."

Seth stepped closer to Stella. How surprised he was when he saw the beauty of the bride.

"Wowzers! You're so drop-dead gorgeous, Miss Steffy!"

Stella still kept her face down. Stella tried to pretend she didn't hear anything that Seth said, but she gave in. She responded to Seth's words of praise.

"Tha-thank you, Mr. Seth."

Stella's innocent answer made Lexus and Seth even more sure that she was not Steffy, the fiancé. Yes, she is Stella.

"Young Master, please wait outside! Soon, Steffy will be ready."

Sophia took a bold step. She said in a trembling voice, and Lexus realized it.

Lexus patted his pants. Then, he stood up while looking at Sophia. He asked, "Mrs. Sophia, it seems you've something to say?"

Lexus stared at the 52-year-old woman. His eyes were bright red as if he were challenging his interlocutor.

"Ah, i've nothing to say to you, Young Master."

Sophia smiled awkwardly why did Lexus ask such a thing?

"Good. I hope you don't regret it in the future!"

Before leaving, Lexus took one more look at Stella as he called out, "See you at the altar, Steffy!"

Then, Lexus glared at Seth. "Come on, Seth!" he exclaimed.

Sophia breathed a sigh of relief that Lexus and his assistant had left the room. She sat down to calm herself.

***

"All of you, come out!"

Seth asked everyone who was in the Lexus room to come out. He saw that Lexus was furious and disappointed at the Drechsler family's despicable treatment.

"Seth, find Steffy! Seek her to the ends of the world! I wonder who she's having an affair with. How dare the Drechslers make fun of the Rodriguez family!"

Lexus grumbled. He sat down and lit a cigarette just to calm his emotions.

"Of course, Young Master."

"Find her alive! I'll start a plot to take revenge on the Drechslers."

Seth quickly contacted the hired detective on the phone. Meanwhile, Lexus's mind drifted, remembering Stella's pretty face.

Not long after, Seth approached the Lexus and shouted, "Come on, Sir! Now is the time!"

Lexus took a deep breath. He extinguished the cigarette in a huff.

"Damn marriage! I really don't like it."

Lexus has criticized his marriage to one of the Drechsler twin daughters. But even so, he could not refuse this marriage.

The Rodriguez Hotel will witness Lexus's wedding to a surrogate bride he has never met. He will join the Drechsler family game.

Lexus walked gallantly down the aisle with Seth. All family members and invited guests have been waiting for this sacred event to begin. Lexus stands waiting for the bride to enter the ballroom that has been transformed into the grandest wedding venue in Great Britain.

Bang!

The sound of the door opening made everyone hold their breath. The bride stands beside her father, Odolf Drechsler. They walked accompanied by a group of bridesmaids. All pairs of eyes fixed on the bride, who is charming mesmerizing.

"Twins, but not the same. Do they think that I'm blind?!"
