You actually tampered with the wedding dress , and now Leah has made a fool of herself , and you've caused her to end up in the hospital , almost losing her life . Are you satisfied ? " Marissa's face was pale , her voice weak . " I never touched the wedding dress … " " Shut up ! " Cayden interrupted sharply , " The evidence is conclusive , how dare you still try to argue ?! " Ava even gave the order directly . " Someone come ! Drag her down and carry out the family law ! " Matt stood to the side , his hand shaking slightly as he lit a cigarette , but ultimately … he didn't say a word .
