Silence gripped the wedding hall as Julian Hart interrupted the ceremony. Blake Carrington stood frozen, a ring hovering between his fingers and Eliza Munro’s. She withdrew, walking toward Julian, leaving Blake exposed under the harsh spotlight. It was the third interruption. Previously, Blake had raged or pleaded, but now he stood still as Eliza cast a scornful glance. 'Blake, what are you doing? You don’t care?' Blake took the microphone. 'Eliza, go. This wedding is over.' Eliza hurled a champagne glass. 'How dare you?' Blake laughed bitterly, noting her reliance on his wealth. 'Pay it back.' She faltered. As Julian smirked and they left, Blake felt the ring’s imprint, realizing years of love were wasted. This was the final test he would fail.
