How could Jacob even say that?
Eloise wasn’t sure how to react to Jacob’s words. She tucked her hands in her pockets, speechless. Moments later, she nodded and asked, “I can give the wedding gown to her, but can you tell me why I have to do so?”
Jacob ruffled his hair. “I know you still can’t forget about the right years we’ve spent together, Eloise. You hate how I dumped you, and you hate how Sophia snatched me away from you. But you can still be with me even if Sophia and I are married.
“I told you about it, right? You don’t have to be like this.
“Stop right there!” Eloise couldn’t bear listening to what Jacob had to say anymore. “I’m getting married, Jacob. And the wedding is on the same day as yours. How many times do I have to remind you before you’ll finally believe me?”
Jacob let out a sneer. “That’s ridiculous!”
Eloise took a deep breath. “So, can you tell me why I must give the wedding gown to her? If you can’t, please excuse me. I’m leaving.
“Because I’ll give whatever Sophia wants to heilTM
“This isn’t an excuse for you to take someone else’s things.”
“How much is it? I’ll buy it!”
“I’m not selling it ”
“Your parents‘ house.
“Quit mentioning my parents‘ house!” Eloise snapped in a low voice, staring coldly at Jacob. “Go ahead and tear it down. Do whatever you want with it. I don’t care!
There was no way she would allow him to keep threatening her over her parents‘ house.
“I’ll just consider it as the price for falling in love with you!”
Jacob was looking at Eloise in a daze. He suddenly felt like he had completely lost Eloise. It wasn’t him letting go. It was her choosing to leave him.
Feeling guilty, Jacob was going to add on something. Just then, his phone cang. It was Sophia who called. He glanced at Eloise briefly and then answered the call. which had been cinging for some time.
“We’re going to see the wedding venue now? Didn’t we agree on an island wedding before? Castle? You want
Jacob subconsciously cast an eye on Eloise after hearing what Sophia had said.
want a castle wedding?”
Eloise then immediately understood. She had always liked castle weddings, and she had mentioned it to Jacob countless times. Thus, after Sophia got this information from him, she decided to change her wedding venue to a castle, just to spite Eloise
Sophia had to be very proud of herself, thinking that she stole the boyfriend Eloise had been in love with for eight years and the wedding Eloise liked.
After hanging up the phone, Jacob paused for a quick moment. He remarland quietly, “I’m leaving to see the wedding venue now. Also, do consider what I’ve said
He left as soon as he finished his sentence.
After Eloise said a couple of things to the sales associate, she left as well.
Benjamin had been waiting for her outside of the bridal shop.
“Ms. Sullivan, Mr. Huntington asked me to bring you to select the wedding venue.”
An hour later, they arrived at a castle on the outskirts of Kingsbury. The castle had a domed root with gray walls, surrounded by a sprawling lawn.
It wasn’t a castle, actually. Instead, it was a wine estate. After it closed down, it was redecorated into a castle dedicated to holding wedding ceremonies. The moment Eloise came out of the car, a young lady in uniform greeted her enthusiastically, She had to be the wedding planner.
“Hello, Ms. Sullivan. My rume is Repre Ziegler.”
Eloise shook hands with her. “Pleasure to meet you.”
