Mark felt a chill emanating from her voice, causing his heart to sink a little.

Before he could comprehend what was happening, the host's voice suddenly echoed from the television screen.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats. The wedding ceremony of Mr. Russell and Ms. Olsen is about to begin!"
