After hanging up, Amelia’s tense expression settmed slightly. With Gavin on his way back, it was just a matter of time now. As long as the wedding proceeded smoothly, that was all that mattered.
“Gracie, don’t worry. Once Gavin’s back, I’ll make sure he pays for this!” Amelia reassured me, patting my hand gently. “All you need to do is step onto that stage. I’ve already spoken to the more about everything”
I took a deep breath, trying to steady my nerves, just as the makeup artist approached to touch up my makeup, Dawn hurried back, visibly flustered
“How did it go?” asked anxiously
Mrs. Summers terised to leave. She’s insisting on staying to witness the wedding.” Dawn replied, a light sheen of sweat on her forehead Lowering her voice as she noticed Amelia still nearby, she leaned in and whispered, “Did they find that bastard Gavin?”
Inodded. “They found him He’s on his way back.”
Down let out a long sigh of relief, patting her chest. “Good”
As my bridesmaid, Dawn was to accompany me onto the stage. At this point, the hotel’s grand hall looked like something out of a fairy tale–an ethereal dream that any wish for their wedding day.
Butstanding in the wings, listening to the emcee’s lively banter and the cheerful laughter of the guests, I found it impossible to smile.
My gaze drifted toward the VIP table where my mom sat, center stage Despite the weariness on her face, her eyes sparkled with joy. Even the corners of her eyes radiated happiness and hope
Just then, a commotion spread through the lively hall, Guests began glancing at their phones, whispering among themselves. The atmosphere shitted uneasily.
A sense of foreboding welled up in me
“What’s going on? I asked nervously
Behind me, Dawn’s brows furrowed as her tone turned tense. “It can’t be did word get out that Gavin bailed hallway through?
Panic surged through me, but before I could respond, a tall, imposing figure strode toward me
Tom’s sharp gaze met mine, his dark eyes unfathomable. Even from several yards away, the air around him seemed to pulse with an overwhelming pressure
“Tom,” His expression filled me with unease “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
“Gean isn’t here, is he?” His words came as a question, but his tone left no room for doubt
My beatsink–he knew.
Seeing my silence, Tom’s ps flared briefly with frustration before his tone turned icy. “Are you really going to stay here?”
Itis question ha me like a bolt of lightning, leaving me even more unsettled. Tum, what’s going on? What happened?”
Cutters laps perssed righth tether as he lowered his deep pare to me
