Chapter 1047 Savannah's Bad Choice
Murmurs and sighs swirled through the crowd.
A voice broke the tense silence, "Savannah's been drowning in debt for years. Steve's been pouring money into her mother's medical bills; it's a bottomless pit. Can you imagine the financial strain?
Another guest joined the conversation, shaking their head. "Yeah, Savannah's a total babe, but looks can't fix a never-ending money vortex. Who in their right mind would jump into that mess, especially with a mom in a coma racking up the bills?"
The crowd buzzed with a mix of sympathy and skepticism.
Cherise watched as Savannah approached Steve, her face etched with worry.
Clearly, she wasn't exactly thrilled to be getting married, but sometimes life hits you with a reality stick.
As Cherise thought this, Savannah's dad was already slipping her hand into Steve's.
The emcee started to kick off the wedding, "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining us today. Before we proceed with the vows—"
"Hold on." A cold voice cut through the air, halting the emcee in his tracks.
A sharp-dressed man in white strolled in, "Sav, are you sure you wanna marry him?"
His question sent shockwaves through the crowd. "Whoa, didn't see that coming!" someone whispered.
"That's Trent, Savannah's high school sweetheart," another guest murmured.
"This just got interesting..."
"But they love each other," Cherise countered, her voice laced with conviction. "Maybe his financial situation prevents him from helping. He doesn't mean it."
Damien let out a derisive laugh. "He's employed by Lenoir Group, Cherise. Believe me, his income is anything but limited."
Cherise's eyes widened in disbelief. "You actually keep tabs on how much some ordinary employee makes?"
"Only because Savannah's your friend," Damien explained, taking a swig of his drink. "Pretty face, but not the sharpest tool in the shed. This whole situation is a disaster waiting to happen."
Cherise pressed her lips together, refusing to be drawn into another argument.
In her heart, she sided with Savannah. Trent was a looker compared to Steve, and their chemistry was undeniable.

🌸 Message to the Author: 🌸 Hi! I just finished reading your story, and I truly loved it — especially Damien and Cherise’s journey. But what completely stole my heart was Lennon and Lucy. Their final scene left me stunned… Lennon being alive, quietly showing up after all that time — it was such a powerful and emotional moment. But it also left me with so many feelings… What happened to him? How did Lucy react after the shock wore off? What did they say to each other? I keep thinking about them. I know they’re side characters, and the story is marked as completed, but I would truly love a bonus chapter — even a small one — to see what came next for them. They deserve that closure. And honestly? So do we, as readers who deeply connected with them. And we would also love to see more of Damien and cherise with their kids. Thank you for creating characters that live so deeply in our hearts. If you ever feel inspired, please consider giving Lennon and Lucy a little more. ❤️...
