Lisa stepped forward, her voice sharp and cutting through the tension like a knife. “This wedding must not happen!” she declared, her words reverberating through the room. A stunned silence descended, extinguishing the guests’ murmurs in an instant. Sarah’s heart hammered in her chest, panic clawing at the edges of her composure. But this was her day, and she refused to let Lisa take it from her. She drew in a steadying breath, straightened her posture, and locked eyes with Lisa. “Stop this,” Sarah said, her voice calm but firm, “or I’ll have you escorted out.” Each word was measured, deliberate—a warning not to be ignored. Even as she held her ground, an uneasy tension lingered, the uncertainty of what might unfold next pressing heavy in the air.
