"Still as a father, I'll like to request you to take care of my daughter and love her like the way you've always done. And if you hurt her anytime, don't forget that her father is here to break your legs and feed them to the sea sharks.."

Reuben's eyes turned determined as he assured his father-in-law with full confidence, "You don't need to worry about Ica, Dad. She's just not the love of my life but my heartbeat also. Without her, I'll not be able to live...

So it's going to be my duty to love her way more than I've loved in all those past years. And if you feel anytime that I'm doing any wrong with your princess, then you can feel free to feed me to those sharks."

Reuben joked at the last line to make the mood lighter which surely worked and brought a smile on both father and daughter's lips.

Mr. Lopez didn't waste anymore second and gave his daughter's hand on Reuben's already stretched one and said, "I believe in you son. Stay happy and blessed always."

He then kissed Veronica's forehead lovingly and went to sit beside his wife.

As soon as Reuben grabbed Veronica's hand, they felt an electricity ran through their body. This feeling was not the same one like other times but it had a different kind of power which might be the effect of their rapid heartbeats for stepping into the new phase of their life..

"You look absolutely beautiful, love. I don't know how I'm going to concentrate on this wedding now!" Reuben complemented Veronica with all the love he had in his heart for his bride.

Veronica gave him a shy smile and said, "You too look dashingly handsome, baby. Though I'm also feeling the same like you but we still have to complete our wedding rituals so that I can finally be your Mrs. and you my Mr.…"

Reuben chuckled and replied teasingly, "Yes.. The sooner the wedding will end, the quicker I can kidnap you for our long waited honeymoon."

Veronica giggled at his statement and was about to reply something when the bishop thought to interrupt their sweet moment.

"Before we start the wedding, I want to know if anyone have any reasons on why these two people should not be legally wedded." The bishop asked.

Reuben frowned at his question and muttered, "Why would anyone have any reason to stop our wedding? Especially when both the groom and bride are eagerly waiting to get married.

Please avoid all these questions and let us take our vows. I can't wait to marry this gorgeous woman standing beside me anymore."

Reuben's this statement earned a round of laughter from all around the hall. They couldn't believe that the great, always cold hearted CEO was so much whipped that he wanted to skip all of these not so important rituals..

"Your son is surely an inpatient one!" Mr. Smith whispered into his wife's ears.

Mrs. Smith chuckled in response and retorted, "Well, he definitely got the trait from you."

This was enough to shut his mouth as he remembered his own wedding.

Veronica smirked at Reuben's expense and exclaimed in a teasing way, "Eager much… aren't we?"

"Yes baby.. Very much." Reuben too replied with a smirk without having any kind of hesitation.

It made Veronica shake her head at his childishness but a smile was still plastered on her lips.

The bishop cleared his throat and finally asked the most awaited question, "Do you, Reuben Smith, take Veronica Lopez, as your lawfully wedded wife, to have and hold, from this day forward, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health, until death do you apart?"

"I do..."

It didn't take even a millisecond for Reuben to answer back confidently, making everyone again chuckle at his antics.

Inhaling a sharp breath, Reuben held Veronica's both hands firmly and confessed while looking into her eyes, "Ica.. It's needless to say how much of happiness you've brought into my life as my lover. You have brightened my dark world with those bright lights, emitting from your eyes..

Today I'm not going to promise you anything because it's for me to know, so that I can fulfill your every dreams in my own way. But what I can do is to confess my love to you again in front of the Jesus and our close ones..

Baby, my love for you has only grown in every passing second. I just want you to never change and be the way like you are now. Your one smile is enough to bring the monsoon in my dry life. And I wish to spend all of my lives only with you as your boyfriend, fiance, husband and also the father of our children..

I love you baby. I love you with everything I have. You just need to remember one thing baby that… MY HEART BEATS ONLY FOR YOU…"

A teardrop slid down Veronica's eyes which Reuben very softly wiped off from her face before giving her an assuring smile which she returned with her own.

It was now time for Veronica to take her vows as the priest asked her the same question..

"Do you, Veronica Lopez, take Reuben Smith, as your lawfully wedded husband, to have and hold, from this day forward, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health, until death do you apart?"

Veronica too didn't waste any time and said in affirmation, "I do…"

The hold Reuben had on her arms, had been reciprocated by her this time as she also professed with same amount of intensity, "Bennie.. You have every ounce of idea that how much your presence in my life meant to me…

Like you, I will also not make any kind of promises on this very special day of our life as I very well know, exactly what you expect from me as a wife. And that is too, keep loving you till eternity until death do us apart.."
