The Grand Wedding That Ceased to Exist Chapter 12
Standing in the hollow silence of the house, Eric thought back to the times he and I'd poured everything into our shared dreams. Once again, bitter tears of regret streamed down his face.He searched for me for an entire year but still found nothing.One day, while cleaning out my room, Oscar came across a receipt. It was for the custom wedding rings I'd ordered long ago.Eric looked at it over and over, then called the shop to ask about it.But the person on the other end said, "Mr. Powell, Ms. Sawyer did place an order for a pair of custom wedding rings with us, but she called and cancelled it not long after."When Eric heard the date of the cancellation, it hit him—that was right around the time he'd promised Eunice he would swap brides at the wedding.After hanging up, he made up his mind to fulfill the wedding he'd once promised me.He spent half a year meticulously preparing everything. From the venue to the wedding dress, and even down to the guests, he personally handled

At those words, something shifted in Eric's hollow gaze.Eunice's face lit up with relief. "Eric, I know you have to put on a front at the company, but right now it's just you and me. We're still each other's rock, right?"When he didn't respond, she took it as a sign that she was in the clear.She put on a helpless expression and said, "Eric, you have to understand that I did all of this for you. Back when you were fighting for the largest shareholder position, I was afraid Claudia wouldn't help you, and I didn't have any money myself."That's why I made such a terrible mistake. But Eric, you have to believe me—I really had no ulterior motive. I just wanted to help you!"Eric quietly watched her, still trying to talk her way out of it. Suddenly, he slapped her hard across the face.The sharp sound echoed through the living room.Eunice clutched her cheek, eyes wide with disbelief as she stared at Eric."Eunice, even now you're still trying to talk your way out of this. Did you

The moment Jenny said that, Eric's expression changed completely.It was precisely because of that failed bid that he'd been torn apart by the board, even dragging the CEO position into a potential re-election.Eunice shook her head in denial, but not a single person there was willing to believe another word she said.Eric fixed his cold gaze on her. "You're fired. I will investigate every last detail of this matter. If it all checks out, I'll see you in court."Eunice met his icy stare and started to panic. She tried pouting and pleading the way she always had before, but Eric didn't relent in the slightest.In that moment, she knew that he meant every word, and there was no getting out of this. The realization hit her like a punch, and she slumped to the floor like a deflated balloon, completely motionless.In the end, it was Eric who called security to drag her out.Alone in his office, Eric sat with a dark expression, staring at my resignation letter, lost in thought.He th

"You've clearly gone senile. Maybe you should step aside and let someone younger take over," Eunice added.At that, Eric immediately felt that someone must be slandering her."Unless you have proof, keep such talk to yourself. This kind of gossip damages the cohesion and culture of the company," he said sternly to Lucas.A dark glint flashed through Eunice's eyes. Remembering that I'd already resigned, she decided I might as well take the fall for her this time.She turned to Eric and flatly denied everything. "Eric, this is all a setup. It's got to be Claudia scheming to frame me—you have to stand up for me. All these years, I've worked diligently and had nothing but the company's best interest at heart, so why would I ever turn around and sabotage it?"As soon as she finished, she shot a look at Jenny, who had been watching the drama unfold from the sidelines.Jenny caught the signal and, thinking of all the times Eunice had looked out for her, chimed in right on cue, "Mr. Powe

"And one more thing—the board wants you and Ms. Decker back at the company right now," Todd added.At his words, an unreadable glint flickered through Eunice's eyes.Eric looked up and caught the brief shift in her expression, but there was no time to dwell on it. He grabbed Eunice and rushed straight to the company.Seeing Eunice breaking out in a cold sweat and still visibly shaken, he reassured her, "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you."Eunice nodded stiffly in response.The moment the two of them stepped into the office, the colleagues who had been buzzing with gossip fell instantly silent.The client's lead representative, Spencer Ferguson, got straight to the point."Eric, who exactly is in charge of the project in Casterstead? I'd like to have a word with them."Eric hesitated for a moment, then stepped in front of Eunice and replied coldly, "Claudia has been in charge of this project from the start. I'll have her give you an explanation."He then scanned t

But Eunice had never seen an occasion so grand, so no matter how she tried, she simply couldn't pull herself together.All around her, the guests were whispering and pointing at her. In the end, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted on the spot.Eric's face turned thunderous.He turned to Oscar and snapped, "The wedding must go on. If it isn't, I'll be the biggest joke in the city tomorrow. I don't care how you do it, but wake Eunice up right now, or you're fired."Hearing this, Oscar recalled how people on TV always splashed a bucket of ice water to wake someone up. Thus, he immediately ordered the staff to bring one over.Just as the household staff member approached Eunice with the basin of ice water, someone tripped them. The entire basin drenched Eunice from head to toe, completely ruining her meticulously styled hair and makeup.And yet, Eunice didn't react at all.Oscar started to panic. He never expected things to turn out like this.Then, someone mentioned that pressin
