Chapter 764 I’m His Fiancee
“She’s not normally like this,” Cherise said quietly, “but Zachary getting hurt has her all wound up.”
Despite their constant bickering, there was no denying Kareen’s princess-like fragility. Zachary treated her like a queen, and while she could be a bit high-maintenance at times, she was generally a gentle soul.
“Well… this wasn’t exactly the picture-perfect wedding scene,” Lyra admitted, her voice laced with worry about her future as Mrs. Zachary,
Cherise couldn’t resist teasing her. “It’s not too late to jump ship, you
know.”
Lyra shook her head resolutely. “No way! A promise is a promise. And I won’t regret it! Not for a second!” The stubborn set of her jaw reminded Cherise of her younger self. A faint smile touched her lips as she reached for Lyra’s hand. “Don’t worry.”
Meanwhile, Zachary’s stepmother spotted the tense standoff between Kareen and Damien and nudged her
son.
Chad cleared his throat and stepped forward, trying to calm Kareen down. “Hey, sis, relax. Isn’t this a little bit much for our guests?”
Kareen glared at him. “Get lost! It’s not your brother who’s lying there hurt!”
Chad’s smile faltered momentarily but quickly returned. “But he needs to get to the hospital, no? If you keep arguing here, it could delay his treatment.”
Kareen froze, released her grip, and barked at the bodyguards behind her. “What are you guys standing around for, like a bunch of morons? Get my brother to the hospital now!”
The bodyguards sprang into action, scooping up the gurney and whisking Zachary away.
Kareen turned back to Cherise, her voice icy. “This isn’t over!” With that, she stormed off.
Lyra swiftly released Cherise’s hand and followed after Kareen. “Wait, I’ll come too…”
Kareen raised an eyebrow, giving Lyra a dismissive once-over. “Who are you?”
“I… I’m his fiancée,” Lyra stammered.
Kareen frowned, pondered for a moment, then scoffed. “Fiancée, huh? So you’re the one my brother had a fling with and then had to marry, huh?”
Lyra lowered her head, her fingers nervously picking at the straps of her backpack. “Yes, that’s me…”
Kareen sneered. “Loyal, I’ll give you that. Fine, come with me.”
After Kareen left with Lyra and Zachary, Chad approached Damien. “Mr. Lenoir, my father was thrilled to hear you were coming. He’s prepared a feast at our home. Would you and your wife care to join us?”
