But those eyes appeared only for a moment before disappearing.
With a bang, Lionel got hit again because he was distracted.
Thinking of the beautiful figure he had just seen, Lionel suddenly burst with energy and pushed away the people blocking him.
At the same time, Lance also dealt with his obstacles and walked into the villa with Lionel openly.
On the second floor, as soon as they stood still, they saw two small heads retracting into a room, followed by a bang as the door closed. A voice called out, "Mommy, Auntie, Daddy and Uncle Lionel are here!"
Hearing this, Lance and Lionel exchanged a glance and stepped forward to knock on the door.
"Gregory and Chloe, we have lots of cash gifts here. If you open the door, all these cash gifts will be yours."
Their voices came through the door, making Deanna laugh.
She had seen Lance being stopped from getting out of the car and getting hit at the gate. While she found it funny, she also felt a bit sorry for him.
"No way, you have to pass the cash gifts through the door first. Otherwise, how can we trust you?" The two little ones cunningly shouted from inside.
Lance had no cash gifts on him and could only bluff the kids.
In the end, the two little ones couldn't outsmart him and opened the door.
As soon as they entered, Lance saw Deanna sitting on the bed in a beautiful wedding dress, looking stunningly unreal. He was completely mesmerized.
For a moment, his eyes were filled only with Deanna, no one else.
Lionel was in the same state, staring dumbfounded at Julia.
The two little ones ran over, extending their hands to ask for cash gifts.
"Daddy, Uncle Lionel, where are our cash gifts?"
Hearing this, Lance and Lionel finally snapped back to reality.
Both felt a bit guilty and said, "We'll give you the cash gifts later."
After saying that, they ignored the wide-eyed kids and walked affectionately towards their brides.
"Deanna, I'm here to take you."
"Julia, you look so beautiful today."
As they spoke, they were about to pick up their brides when a hand stopped them.
Gunner looked at them with mock annoyance. "You guys are something else, tricking little kids. Since that's the case, Deanna and Julia won't be that easy to take away. Gregory and Chloe, hide your mommy's and godmother's wedding shoes. Only when your daddy and Uncle Lionel find them can they take the brides away."
"Yes!" The two little ones responded cheerfully and immediately took their mommy's and auntie's wedding shoes to hide them.
Lance and Lionel exchanged a guilty look.
A few minutes later, the kids returned, saying they had hidden the shoes.
Hearing this, Gunner told Lance and Lionel to start searching.
Deanna and Julia smiled encouragingly at them. "Good luck! You can find them quickly."
Thus began Lance and Lionel's quest to find the shoes.
Fortunately, with Lance's understanding of the kids, it didn't take long for him to find all the wedding shoes.
"Congratulations! Now you can take the brides away."
Seeing that Lance had found the shoes, Gunner didn't stop them any further.
Hearing this, Lance and Lionel happily looked at their brides beside them.
If they weren't afraid of scaring them, they would have rushed over to hug their brides and cheer.
Fortunately, both men restrained themselves and walked steadily to their brides, carrying them in their arms.
Deanna and Julia held tightly onto their men, their eyes filled with happy smiles.
Their eyes met, and they couldn't help but kiss each other.
Gunner watched with amusement but didn't interrupt them. Instead, he turned around to give the couples some space.
After a while, Lance and Lionel finally separated from their brides.
Deanna and Julia blushed deeply, lowering their heads in shyness.
Seeing this, Lionel and Lance felt their hearts swell with satisfaction as if they owned the whole world.
Then, the two men carried their brides out.
Seeing them come out, Gunner teased mischievously. "So quick? I thought you'd take longer."
"Master!"
"Mr. Martinez!"
Deanna and Julia exclaimed in embarrassment while urging Lance and Lionel to leave quickly.
Naturally, they listened to their brides and bid farewell to Gunner before carrying them downstairs.
They hadn't taken a few steps when they heard Gunner's chuckle behind them.
Deanna and Julia hid in Lance's and Lionel's arms, their faces red with embarrassment.
Once in the wedding car, the group headed towards Radiance Hotel, owned by Mercer Group.
Radiance Hotel was where they would hold their wedding ceremony.
A joint wedding of four families was rare in Cloudmere, especially among top-tier families like the Mercers. The wedding itself was newsworthy enough for reporters to cover for days.
Lance led Deanna down the red carpet, followed by groomsmen and bridesmaids who were all exceptionally handsome and beautiful.
Passersby looked at them with envy in their eyes, filled with blessings and longing.
