The General Who Hates Me

Torin and Lyra chose to hold a simple rustic garden theme wedding ceremony at the Lim’s Villa. It was a small and intimate wedding ceremony with only their immediate family and closest friends as guests.

Lyra looked beautiful, wearing a romantic white tulle gown. The couple had never left each other’s eyes during the ceremony, especially Torin, who could not hold back his tears as he uttered his wedding vows.

"I offer you my love, tenderness, and undying devotion. I promise not to ask you to be more than you are, and to love you for being you." Lyra said her wedding vows, smiling.

Torin’s eyes were filled with love when it was his turn for his vow as she looked at Lyra.

"I remember the day when I first saw you. You called me ’Brother.’ And I didn’t like that at all. I was going to ask you not to call me ’Brother’ because you were too beautiful in my eyes to become a mere sister. But... Bro Zach was standing next to me, so I decided to keep my mouth shut, lest I wanted a broken nose..." Torin started his vow, to which their guests responded with laughter.

Then he added in a solemn voice, "I am delighted to have you in my life. I want nothing else but for you to be my partner for the rest of my life. I will do my very best and work hard to spend each day being the best version of myself. For you, for us, and for our family. I love you so much, and I’m really lucky that you feel the same way. Thank you."

The ceremony was followed by the wedding party. Everyone had so much fun, especially with the program and games Josh and Rizie had prepared for all the guests.

Sheila could not stop her tears from falling the whole time, so Torin could not help but say, "Mom, stop crying. I am not taking Lyra away from you... Instead, you have gained an additional son. A good one and the most charming one..."

Those words made everyone laugh.
