Hale, a man over six feet in height, began sobbing. His eyes, which were wide open, became red. He stayed close to Grace, being concerned that she would suddenly run away from him.
Grace didn't stop weeping until there were no more tears in her eyes. Finally, Hale cuddled her up. She didn't refuse him this time. They didn't go back to the hall but went back to the booked room directly.
Learning that the bride and groom wouldn't show up again, the audience began to murmur. Cathryn went out to find the couple but was in vain. So she returned to appease Hale's parents and Grace's parents. Then she went up to the platform.
"Excuse me. The bride is not very comfortable. The groom accompanied her and went back to have a rest. Since they're not here, we can't give them a toast. So let's have the toasts and have fun! Hope you can enjoy the food and drinks here. Cheers." Cathryn said.
