Winning Her Heart Back

Chapter 630 The Wedding

Arsen had gone out that day. When he reached the estate, he learned that William and the rest had arrived and were touring the wedding venue. He personally went to greet them and invited them to dine in the main building.

The atmosphere during dinner was warm and cheerful, and Charles casually asked, “Will Ms. Themis be joining us for dinner?” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

“Ms. Themis has a friend visiting, so she’s dining with her,” the butler explained.

Charles glanced at William, who took a sip of red wine.

Charles smiled and said, “I see.”

After they finished dinner, the butler escorted the three men to the guest rooms.

As soon as the butler left, Charles and Bryan went to William’s room.

Temperatures in winter dipped as low as 40 degrees Fahrenheit in Baliz, but each room boasted a fireplace, creating a pleasantly warm ambiance.

William removed his coat and scarf, revealing a fitted black sweater. He appeared thinner, most probably because he was in black

“No wonder the butler knew about my preference for cold–brewed tea. When she was my secretary, she would bring me a cup every morning when I arrived at the office. The tea she made was the second–best tea I’ve ever tested, comparable to the ones made by my previous secretaries,” Bryan said.

Bryan, having heard about Themis from Charles, sounded indifferent.

Charles looked up. “Personally, I wish she were alive. But if she truly is alive, we’re in serious trouble. Our cooperation with the Aurora Gro Counts for 70% of our profit.

“I’m sure she won’t let us continue partnering with the Aurora Group. Such a sudden loss of a major partner would be bad for the Xanther Group.” Bryan shook his head. “Not necessarily. I asked my men to discreetly investigate just now. What the butler said was only partially true.

“What he didn’t tell us was that the Aurora Group wanted an arranged marriage with the Sorrel family. However, the Sorrel family wished for Arsen’s daughter to marry into their family. Arsen was in a dilemma,

“If he adopted his biological niece, her parents might attempt to claim the Aurora Group’s assets. Thus, he opted to adopt an orphan, solving his problems,” Bryan explained.

Charles snapped his fingers. “Ah, that makes sense. I didn’t think there would be someone so kind. It’s always about their own interests.

“It’s akin to ancient times when a foreign country desired a princess as a bride. If the king lacked a daughter, he would simply crown a woman princess and send her off to get married.”

Bryan nodded. “Precisely. Therefore, Ms. Themis, despite being favored, is merely a tool. She’s not as influential as she seems.”

Charles felt relieved. “And it’s possible it isn’t Emelle at all. We all saw the arrow pierce her chest. She couldn’t possibly be alive. What do you think, Mr. Middleton?”

William uncurled his fingers near the fireplace, warming his cold palms. The flames in the fireplace danced in his eyes, yet his gaze remained dark. He said. “We’ll know the truth at the wedding tomorrow.”

The night passed quickly, and the highly anticipated wedding day arrived. The ceremony was scheduled for noon, with guests beginning to arrive at the villa in the morning.

Elias and Beathan arrived at the same time, but they didn’t exchange

Despite being sent to the Xanther Group by William, Elias had successfully completed several impressive projects since assuming his role. No one dared to question his capabilities after that, and his status was secure. Elias only greeted William before taking a seat.

Beathan, having also heard from Charles about the suspicions surrounding Themis, had news to share.

He took out a few photographs. “This is the groom from the Sorrel family.”
