Hidden Richest Uncle My On - Spot Husband But she forced herself to stay calm and dialed Brant Smith's number . The phone rang for a full two minutes before he finally picked up , His voice was cold and detached . " Ashley needs me right now . We'll have to postpone the wedding . Once this is over , I'll make it up to you ! " The word " make up " felt like icy chains tightening around her heart . So it was true - just as their wedding was about to begin , he was really in another woman's bed . Luna forced a bitter , painful laugh . Her wedding was supposed to begin in front of a crowd of guests . But the groom had left her to face everyone alone . Refusing to accept it , she made another call . " Mom , Dad , why aren't you here yet ? " " Luna , Ashley isn't feeling well all of a sudden . We might not make it . " Luna's heart turned completely cold . Three days ago , while trying on bridesmaid dresses , her parents had accidentally seen the birthmark on Ashley's back . That was when they realized there had been a mix - up - Ashley was their biological daughter ! Luna had thought that even if she wasn't their biological child , their twenty years of shared love would mean they wouldn't abandon her . But she was wrong ... The family she thought would always stand by her had completely deserted her .. Luna didn't know how she made it to the wedding venue . She stood before the crowd of guests , watching their smiling faces and the lively atmosphere , feeling as if the pain inside her was tearing her apart . Suddenly , she made a decision . She walked up to the stage , took the microphone , and said , " Sorry , the groom has something urgent and might not make it . Is there anyone here willing to marry me ? If so , I'll marry you right now ! " Her words exploded like a bomb in the room . " What's going on ? Did the groom run away ? " " He must have , otherwise the bride wouldn't be proposing at her own wedding ! " " Even if he did run away , is it really necessary to propose to someone else on the spot ? Everyone here is connected to the bride or groom in some way . This is so awkward ! " The wedding between the Brown and Smith families was a union of two powerful families , and the guests were all influential figures in Yuen . If none of them recognized this man , he was either extremely prestigious - someone they rarely had the chance to meet - or a complete nobody who had sneaked in to see what was happening . " He's sitting on the groom's side . He must be a guest invited by the Smith family ." In an instant , everyone's eyes lit up with curiosity . Looking at the man who had suddenly stood up , Luna felt a flash of amazement . He had a strikingly handsome face - a straight nose , sharp eyebrows , and bright eyes . His legs seemed impossibly long . Even in her high heels , Luna , who was 5'6 " , only reached his collarbone . His presence was so commanding it was almost intimidating . But with looks even more handsome than Brant's , he didn't seem like someone who would struggle to find a wife . Maybe he had so hidden reason he couldn't get married ? But that wasn't what concerned Luna the most . Her goal today was to complete the wedding and leave the Brown family . Steadying herself , she looked at the man with a scrutinizing gaze and asked , " Do you really mean it ? " Was he just teasing her because she was in an awkward situation ? In the crowd , Jasper looked directly at her , his expression calm but firm . " I never joke , especially not about something as serious as marriage ." Luna asked , " What's your name ? " " Jasper Smith . " His voice was deep , rich , and magnetic. Luna paused , then frowned slightly . " Smith ? Are you related to Brant ? " " You could say I'm a distant uncle . " " Uncle ? " Luna raised an eyebrow . " Distant ! " he emphasized . Distant meant they wouldn't have to interact much in the future . Luna relaxed a little but couldn't help double - checking . " Are you sure you won't regret this ? " " The word ' regret ' doesn't exist in my life . " 2/3 12:33 Chapter 1 A Wedding Proposal at the Altar His confident attitude was like an anchor , calming Luna's nerves completely . " Alright , let's exchange rings then ! " +8 Pear With that , she opened the ring box , placed the groom's ring on his ring finger , and then gestured for him to do the same for her . The ring exchange was completed just like that . The wedding host stood by , utterly stunned . He had never officiated such a bizarre wedding . " This is absurd ! How can anyone treat marriage so casually ? " " Luna must have lost her mind . Just because her fiancé and his parents didn't show up doesn't mean she should do somethin like this . " Luna ignored all the comments . She smiled slightly , turned to the guests , and said , " Thank you all for taking the time to attend my wedding . From now on , I have nothing to do with the Brown family of Yuen . The wedding is over - let the banquet begin ! " As the banquet started , Brant's parents were still on their way . Half an hour later , the Smith family's car finally pulled up in front of the wedding hotel . Sarah Smith was visibly displeased as she stepped out of the car , chastising her husband , " I told you we didn't need to come so early. What does it matter if we picked an auspicious time ? If we don't put Luna in her place now , she'll walk all over me once she marries into our family ! " Sarah , Brant's mother , had never liked Luna . She hadn't lifted a finger to help with the wedding preparations and had even planned to assert her authority at the last minute . Unfortunately for her , their plans were about to fall apart . When Sarah and Allen entered the banquet hall , they heard from the guests that Luna had already left with her new husband Only then did they learn that Luna hadn't married their son but had instead found another man on the spot . Furious , Sarah snapped , " That little wretch ! She's deliberately humiliating our family ! Let's see who she managed to marry ! " She dragged Allen out of the banquet hall just in time to see Luna , still in her wedding dress , getting into a car by the roadside . A man was holding the door open for her before getting in himself By the time the couple rushed over , the car had already driven away . Sarah stomped her feet in anger . But Allen seemed lost in thought , hesitantly asking , " Honey , don't you think that man looked a bit like ... like Jasper ? " " Jasper ? " Sarah's eyebrows furrowed , and she immediately shook her head . " No way ! Why would he be here ? You must've misseen ! " They had sent an invitation to the main family , but even the butler hadn't bothered to show up . There was no way Jasper , the youngest head of the Smith family , would come . It had to be a case of mistaken identity . How could Luna possibly have connections with someone that important ?
