Could they not even pass through the very first gate?
While thinking this, the groomsmen followed the groom to the gate only to find it locked.
The bridesmaids appeared all at once, with Mya leading the charge from behind the ornate railing, saying with a smile. “If the
groom wishes to see our lovely bride, he must nthree things the bride doesn’t yet know!”
Those watching the livestream couldn't help but laugh. This was definitely a setup for smischief!
To start off with such a big challenge??
Weren't they worried that the groom wouldn't be able to fetch his bride later??
Unexpectedly, Romeo responded with a confident smile, “She doesn’t know how much | miss her, how deeply | love her, and want
to marry her.”
The room burst into applause at his words.

Indeed, he was wise and knew how to respond.
However, the bridesmaids weren't about to let him off the hook that easily. Joyce, with a sly grin, said, “You want to cin. that’s
not impossible. But first, break through the first firewall!”
In the middle of the two carved gates, there was a lovely crystal heart-shaped lock attached by a crystal chain. The lock was
slightly larger than a palm and, instead of a keyhole, it boasted a touchscreen interface. One had to solve the digital puzzle
displayed on the screen to unlock it.
All the groomsmen glanced at the intricate puzzle and groaned, “Isn’t this a bit too difficult?”
Was the first challenge supposed to be this hard??
“Since when is the path to marriage easy??” Joyce seemed to anticipate their reaction and responded with a laugh. The
bridesmaids behind her were all cheering them on.
“To marry our Bella, good looks aren’t enough; you need brains too.”
“Gentlemen, you're running out of time”
Just as the groomsmen considered seeking external help, they saw Romeo lightly touch the program. They didn’t know what he
was entering, but his steps were so fast that they dazzled everyone.
In less than a minute, with a beep, the lock opened.
The bridesmaids were stunned—how did he do that so quickly?!
They knew Romeo was a top-notch hacker, but this puzzle was set by Grandpa Thomas himself!
Could it be that Thomas had gone easy on him?!
As the groomsmen pushed open the carved doors, the servants who had been waiting on both sides now cin front of them,
neatly blocking their way.
They bowed respectfully and shouted in unison, “We wish Mr. McMillian and Ms. Bella a lifetof happiness and a swift addition to

The groomsmen cheered, “Hooray!” and began handing out the gifts.
While the staff created this diversion, the bridesmaids had already dashed into the main building and shut the door behind them.
After distributing the gifts, the groomsmen followed Romeo to the main building, only to find yet another locked door.
Outside the door, there was a gof chess set up on a large photo board, with pieces magnetically attached. To gain entry, the
groom had to turn the garound and secure a win.

neither. What should we do??”
All eyes turned expectantly to Romeo.
Romeo stepped forward, and before he could make a move, they heard a bridesmaid call out from inside, “This challenge comes
directly from Mr. Eugene. If you pass this test, you'll have the elders’ blessings.”
