Forced to Wear My Sister's Wedding Dress The Secret She Carried Home
Eva walked into the dining room still faintly unsteady from the drinks she had taken, and the sound of conversation around the table seemed strangely distant as she crossed the room. Naomi was the first to notice her.“Eva?” Naomi called, her voice gentle.Eva looked at her.“Are you okay?”Eva looked in her direction and gave a small nod, but she didn't stop to explain herself or even attempt to join them. She was too tired to pretend that everything was fine when it wasn't. She simply continued toward the stairs, holding onto the railing as she climbed.“What’s wrong with her?” someone asked quietly behind her.“I don't know,” another voice replied.She heard them, but she didn't turn around. By the time she reached the top of the stairs, and entered the bedroom, Julian wasn't there.For a moment, she stood beside the bed wondering whether she should wait for him, but the thought disappeared almost as quickly as it came.She went into the bathroom, took a long shower and changed int
Forced to Wear My Sister's Wedding Dress I Need Time
Eva woke tangled in Julian's arms, his body warm against hers and his arm resting securely around her waist. For one brief, disoriented moment, she lay there without thinking about anything beyond the comfort of his embrace. Then the memory of the previous night returned, and the warmth she had felt disappeared beneath a familiar heaviness in her chest.She carefully lifted Julian's arm and eased herself out of bed, trying not to wake him. She had barely taken a few steps toward the bathroom when she heard him stir behind her.“You're awake?” she asked quietly.There was a pause before his rough, sleep-heavy voice reached her.“You still angry?”She stopped near the bathroom door, her hand resting against the frame. She didn't turn around because she wasn't sure she could look at him yet without remembering everything he had told her.“I need time to process this,” she said honestly.Julian was silent for a moment before answering.“Okay, I will give you time if that's what you want.”
Forced to Wear My Sister's Wedding Dress The Truth He Kept From Her
Leo found Julian in his study shortly after midnight.Julian was standing near the window with a glass of water in his hand when Leo walked in. He looked tired, but the moment he saw Leo, his attention shifted.“You found something?”Leo closed the door behind him. “I found something worth discussing, Sir.” Julian turned away from the window and walked back toward his desk. “Sit.”"So, I went back through Richard's confession, especially the part about the woman who threatened his daughter.”Julian turned toward him. “Yes. What about her?”“I've come to the conclusion that the necklace, Richard's confession, the old shipping records, and the Castellan crest all point to someone who prefers working through intermediaries.”So what are you saying?“I'm saying the server deletion, the cufflink, Christabel impersonating Eva, the anonymous courier, and the shipping network all lead back to the same person,” Leo said, tapping one finger against the desk.“The pattern is too consistent to i
Forced to Wear My Sister's Wedding Dress What She Told Herself
Over the past few days, Sophie had gotten used to the company routine and learned who handled what. She no longer spent her mornings trying to figure out where everything was or double-checking every email before sending it.That morning, Delores walked over to her desk carrying a small stack of folders and placed them in front of her.“I want you to go through these before the afternoon meeting,” she said. “Client bookings, payment confirmations, and a few refund requests. Check that the amounts match the original invoices and make sure nothing is missing before you send them to finance.”Sophie looked through the folders and nodded. “Okay. I'll have them ready.”“I know you will.” Delores gave her a small smile before walking away.Sophie opened the first file and began working through it, comparing the figures against the payment records and checking the dates against the booking confirmations.Most of them were straightforward, and she moved through them without any trouble until
Forced to Wear My Sister's Wedding Dress The Castellan Dinner
Julian stepped out of the car and immediately noticed the group gathered near the entrance. His eyes moved briefly over Damien, Naomi, and the rest of the family before settling on Eva, who was standing a short distance away from everyone else.He walked toward her without saying anything at first, and Eva watched him approach with a small smile.“You're finally here,” she said.“I didn't realize everyone was waiting for me,” Julian replied, glancing toward the house where the others had already gathered.“Damien and Naomi arrived a while ago.”“I can see that.”His eyes moved back to her. He noticed the faint redness on her cheek. Instead of asking what happened, he stepped closer and placed a gentle kiss against her forehead before looking at her again.Eva smiled faintly. “You didn't even say hello.”“I just did.”She shook her head, trying not to smile as they walked toward the house together.When they entered the dining room, Damien immediately looked up from his conversation wi
Forced to Wear My Sister's Wedding Dress Before The Guest Arrived
The Castellan house had been unusually busy since early that morning, with the staff moving between the dining room, kitchen, and guest rooms as they prepared for Damien's arrival.Beatrice had been awake for hours, and from the sound of her voice travelling through the house, everyone already knew exactly how important today was.“Those flowers are supposed to go in the dining room, not beside the entrance,” she said as two maids carefully carried a large arrangement across the room. “And make sure the guest room is checked again. I don't want to hear that something was forgotten after Damien arrives.”“Yes, ma'am,” one of the maids replied quickly before hurrying away with the flowers.“And what about the kitchen? Has Mrs. Harris finished with the menu?”“She’s still preparing some of the dishes.”“She should have finished by now,” Beatrice muttered, clearly dissatisfied with the answer.Eva had been standing at the entrance for several moments, watching the preparations unfold. “Do
