The Way of the Center

Catherine sat in front of the dressing table and kept looking at herself. Although after working in the modeling industry, Catherine has become accustomed to sitting in front of the dressing table for long periods of time doing makeup, but today, she is very concerned about her makeup.

From the mirror, you can see a milky white wedding dress hanging behind Catherine. This is a luxurious wedding dress tailor-made for Catherine by the top Spanish wedding brand Pronoves. Of course, Anjie did not spend much money on this wedding dress. Pronovos was originally a brand for the wealthy. An Jie’s custom-made wedding dress cost him close to US$100,000. This was the "discounted" price offered by Pronoves to Angel after Mike Taylor and Meslav found a relationship.

But for Catherine, it's all worth it.

Today is July 28, the wedding of Anjie and Catherine. Catherine was looking forward to it, but she was nervous again. She has never experienced it, never even attended someone else's wedding. What should I do later? What is the difference between a wedding and the one on TV? Catherine knew nothing about it.

"Hey, my dear, don't be nervous. You will definitely be the focus when you go out in such a beautiful wedding dress later." Catherine's good sisters in the modeling circle kept calming her, and she was not afraid of the coldness of her eyes. Yan model, today will be uneasy because of a wedding.

"Boom boom boom." At this moment, the door of Catherine's room was knocked. The door opened, it was a big beard.

"You haven't put on your makeup yet, Catherine, Anjie and they are almost here." The beard looked at the messy dressing table and the wedding dress still hanging in the cupboard, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"But I...I'm not ready yet, Dad." This is the first time Catherine looks so weak in front of the beard after her independence.

"Stupid boy, did you know that back then, due to the opposition from both families, we did not even hold the wedding. Your mother and I only exchanged rings in the church. There is no group of relatives and friends, no grand ceremony. Just. In this way, I lived happily with her. That day your mother looked so beautiful in her wedding dress, as beautiful as you are today. Marrying her as a wife is the most proud choice in my life." Beard Looking at the ceiling, the wedding... accidentally shaken, so many years have passed.

"So Catherine, this is a happy moment, nothing to be nervous. You just need to enjoy this day, and enjoy this day that is destined to be the best memory in your life." Said the beard, standing behind Catherine and looking carefully. Raised his own daughter. "That boy Anjie, what a blessing..."

"Dad..." Catherine's eyes suddenly flushed. "I dont want you to go."

"Stupid boy, this is not the Middle Ages. Even after getting married, you will not be separated from me..."

An Jie sat anxiously in the extended Lincoln carriage, and Westbrook, who acted as An Jie's "bodyguard", handed a glass of champagne to An Jie.

"Don't be nervous, buddy, you're just going to marry your beloved woman home. It's that simple. Why, can this be harder than winning the O'Brien Cup?" Westbrook was also in order to attend Anjie's wedding. Push off a lot of arrangements. The most important day of my good brother, "The Turtle", don't want to miss it.

"It's blunt. When you marry Earl, you will understand how I feel." Earl Anjie said was the girlfriend Westbrook had met when he was still in college.

"Hahaha, rest assured, I am an authentic American. I will not be shy and nervous. I will only enjoy and enjoy the happy moments." Westbrook laughed and patted Anjie on the shoulder. With this lively and cheerful former teammate with him, An Jie also felt his emotions relaxed a lot.

The scene outside the window suddenly slowed down, and An Jie knew that this was because the extended Lincoln was slowly decelerating.

"Here." An Jie held the flowers, his heart pounding.

"Here!" Westbrook got out of the car and drove the door for Angela. A bunch of reporters had already gathered outside the car, but they were all blocked by the security company personnel that An Jie spent heavily on.

Anjie and his friends ran all the way into the hotel. Outside the door of Catherine's room, the bride's "sisters" had been waiting for a long time.

"I said, you guys are really slow."

"That's it, where can the bride wait so long."

Of course, this group of models won't ask for a red envelope at the door of Catherine's room to let Anjie pass. This is Portland, not China. This group of models come from all over the world, and they don't know the customs that have changed in China.

An Jie walked through the crowd embarrassedly and knocked on the door.

"Open the door baby, it's me."

The door slowly opened, but it was not Catherine who greeted An Jie, but Bearded.

"What's the baby? Now Catherine is mine!" After the beard said, he bent over and stretched out his hand. Catherine led her father out of the room.

"Oh... my God." An Jie looked at Catherine in the wedding dress and felt like he almost fainted. This expensive wedding dress is so charming in Catherine.

Catherine blushed slightly as she watched Anjie's reaction.

"Let's go, kid." The bearded smiled at An Jie. Then An Jie handed the flowers to Catherine and took the father and daughter into the car.

Outside the hotel, reporters frantically photographed Catherine in a wedding dress. This well-known model has worn many clothes designed by fashion masters, but no one is more suitable for showing the charm of Catherine than this wedding dress.

Soon, the huge motorcade arrived at the door of the church. In the church, Angel and Catherine's friends have gathered together.

An Jie and Westbrook walked in first. These two men in suits are handsome, but the focus at the moment is destined to be Catherine, who is about to appear.

Afterwards, Catherine stepped into the church accompanied by a bridesmaid and a big beard. Needless to say, the temperament of the two models naturally detonated the audience as soon as they appeared.

In the Rose Garden, on the basketball court, Anjie is often the bomb that detonates the scene. But outside the basketball court, Catherine "struck" An Jie and became the most popular person in the audience.

"I gave her to you, kid." The beard took his daughter and walked to Anjie. After that, everyone stepped back, leaving only two newcomers standing in front of the priest.

The priest looked solemn and looked at the two shy young men before him solemnly. : "Please turn to the thirteenth chapter of 1 Corinthians, love is enduring..."

The priest was reading slowly, and Anjie and Catherine's breathing became rapid. In fact, An Jie initially planned to hold a Chinese wedding, but in Portland, in front of a large number of old people, it is still somewhat difficult to implement this.

But now, Anjie doesn't care if the wedding is Western or Chinese. As long as his bride is Catherine, nothing else matters...

"Angel, are you willing to take Catherine to be her legal husband, regardless of birth, old age, sickness, death, poverty and wealth, and will not leave you until death will separate you?"

The lines that often appeared on TV sounded in Anjie's ears, but he never thought that this moment would be so solemn.

All kinds of ideas about marriage with Catherine flashed through An Jie's mind one by one. An Jie didn't expect that he would seriously consider the question asked by the pastor. But in the end, his answer was still affirmative.

"I do!"

"Miss Catherine, are you willing to marry Anjie and become his legal wife, regardless of birth, old age, sickness, death, poverty and wealth, and will not leave you until death will separate you?"

Catherine blushed and nodded slightly. "I do."

The pastor nodded, and then asked to the audience, "Are any of you opposed to the marriage of Anjie and Catherine?"

Of course, no one answered.

"The two newcomers exchange rings." After the priest said, Anjie and Catherine put wedding rings on each other.

Westbrook had prepared the ribbons, and Aldridge kept taking pictures like a photographer. Wu Hua didn't bring a camera. He attended the wedding as An Jie's friend today. Ricard and his wife cuddled together, and seeing the young couple getting married, they seemed to think of their own years. Van Gundy was deeply moved. The hairy boy who entered the NBA back then is now alone...

"Then now, bridegroom, you can kiss your wife."

Anjie approached Catherine, who had closed her eyes shyly. Due to the difference in height between the two, An Jie lowered his head and bent over. The two kissed together under the witness of all relatives and friends.

"O~~~~!" In the audience, people yelled strangely while applauding.

Then ~www.NovelMTL.com~ Catherine turned her back to everyone and threw her flowers back. The person who can grab the flowers indicates that he will be the next couple to get married.

Westbrook, who was still giggling, didn't know how, but was hit on the head by flowers. The crowd began to roar again, and the carefree point guard put his arms around his girlfriend and scratched his head.

He just said that An Jie was here, when he was also shy.

After that, everyone will move to a private estate under An Jie. There, the wedding will continue, and the carnival has just begun.

Anjie happily took Catherine, his new wife's hand. At this moment, the happiness in his heart is even stronger than when he won the championship.

Basketball and the O'Brien Cup may not accompany An Jie for the rest of his life. When he retires, everything he has achieved now can only be reduced to memories.

But Catherine can follow An Jie for a lifetime.

The perfect and luxurious wedding is still going on, and Anjie’s happy life has just begun...
