“Alright.” Evan agreed with a nod.
When Maya was finally downstairs, John asked her, “Where’s your drumstick?”
“Daddy ate it.”
“Wow! You’re amazing, Maya.”
Maya was bashfully happy upon being praised. But when she saw Susan walking over, the smile on her
face disappeared instantly. The little girl hung her head and stayed silent.
Kyle, who had been keeping an eye on Susan, saw the abrupt change in Maya and suddenly thought
that he could give his sister a role during the wedding tomorrow.
At the Wicked Palace, Nicole had gotten in bed even though it was still early. She didn’t want to think too
much as she had already decided to marry Levant. Questions like whether or not she loved him, or if she
married for love, or if she actually wanted to marry him all, didn’t seem important anymore.
As long as the wedding goes smoothly, Sir Musgrave will be able to return to the estate. I can then
officially bid goodbye to my past and cut off any ties with Evan.
It’s better like this anyway.
At the thought of it, she closed her eyes and forced herself to fall asleep.
After a while, she finally drifted off to dreamland.
However, she had a nightmare that night.
She dreamed that Evan showed up at the wedding and fought with Levant with a dagger in hand as her
children cried on the side.
After that, Murphy appeared. While Evan was distracted, Murphy pierced his sword through the latter’s
chest. In an instant, Evan’s white shirt was dyed red and blood gushed out from his wound.
“Evan!” she screamed and sat up abruptly.
Nicole’s heart was racing and her head was covered in sweat.
After taking a deep breath, she looked around her room and realized it was just a dream. Nevertheless,
her chest felt tight.
Why would I dream of something like this suddenly?
Nicole, you’re marrying Levant. Why do you care so much about Evan’s safety?
Back then, he sent you to prison and left you to be tortured. He wanted to kill you! He was so ruthless
and heartless, yet you’re still worried about his safety?
Are you stupid? Doesn’t your heart hurt?
With those thoughts in her head, she slapped herself as punishment.
You’ll have nothing to do with him from now on. His safety is none of your business. Remember that,
Nicole!
The sky outside had just begun to brighten when Levant came to knock on her door. The makeup artist
had arrived and her favorite breakfast had been prepared, and he urged her to hurry up and get ready.
Nicole got out of bed upon hearing that. She drank only a cup of milk before rushing to let the makeup
artist apply makeup on her.
Levant watched her affectionately by the side; bliss was written all over his face.
I’m finally going to marry Nicole. She’ll be my wife after today!
At the wedding, Nicole wore an ivory dress as she stood beside Levant. She couldn’t help but feel
nervous as she saw the guests, and subconsciously clenched her fists.
As the wedding ceremony was about to begin, the host made his way up the stage with a huge grin on
his face.
John, Jeremy, and Jensen were all feeling anxious. The wedding’s about to begin! When are the kids
coming?
“Do you think they’ve run into trouble?”
“Probably not. Darius and Damien are with them, after all. How about we give them a call?”
“Okay. I’ll call.”
John pulled out his phone and dialed a number. However, to his surprise, his call was not picked up!
He tried calling a few more times but to no avail.
“Oh, no. Something must’ve happened. Otherwise, they would’ve answered their phone by now.”
“What should we do now?”
Three of them started to panic and paced in circles. The host had already finished congratulating the
bride and groom. It was about time for the couple to do their vows.
“Do you, Levant Musgrave, take…”
“We’ll have to snatch the bride away if they can’t make it!” Jeremy suggested.
John and Jensen nodded in unison. There’s no other way than to steal the bride now. Even though we
might not succeed, we still have to give it a try.
John felt that Nicole wouldn’t be so heartless to watch them die. Even if they were captured by Levant,
she would do something to save them.
