The entire wedding froze.
The black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the guests.
A chauffeur stepped out first.
Then opened the rear door.
Everyone stared.
A woman in an elegant navy-blue dress slowly emerged.
Gasps spread through the crowd.
"Is that... Sarah?"
"No way."
"She looks incredible."
Ethan felt his smile disappear.
Sarah looked nothing like the woman he remembered.
She looked confident.
Powerful.
Untouchable.

Two children climbed out of the car behind her.
A boy.
And a girl.
About four years old.
The guests smiled at first.
Then they looked closer.
And closer.
Suddenly the whispers began.
"Oh my God..."
"Do you see it?"
"They look exactly like Ethan."
Victoria's face turned pale.
Ethan's heart slammed against his chest.

"Ethan," she said softly.
