Chapter 190
Leah grasped Liliane’s hand firmly and spoke with a serious tone. “Liliane, don’t concern. yourself with someone who is no longer alive. Right now, the most important thing is for your to focus on your health and become a beautiful bride.”
“But Mom, Bradley and Esther are back together. Will he still marry me?”
“He will.” Leah’s gaze turned sharp and fierce, her voice suddenly cold. “He will marry you.”
She had publicly announced Bradley and Liliane’s impending wedding, so there was no turning back now.
Bradley arrived at the door of the ward and lightly tapped on it.
Thinking it was a nurse, Leah said, “Come in.”
Bradley, composed and dignified, entered as he pushed the door open.
Worry flashed in Leah and Liliane’s eyes upon seeing Bradley’s sudden appearance. They were unsure if he had overheard their earlier conversation.
“Brad,” Liliane sweetly called out.
Bradley’s icy and indifferent gaze fell upon Liliane’s pale face, revealing the signs of her illness that he had never noticed before. She had always made an effort to conceal her congenital heart condition with makeup whenever they met.
“Can your body handle the demands of a full wedding?” Bradley asked.
Liliane’s spirits instantly lifted like a withered flower brought back to life. Joy bloomed in her heart. “Brad, I’m fine. I can handle the wedding…”
Leah couldn’t help but feel a sense of accomplishment. Their strategy of pressuring Bradley through public opinion seemed to be working.
“Mr. Warner, I consulted a master fortune teller who suggested an auspicious wedding date based on your birth charts. There’s a favorable date coming up soon.”
Bradley replied, “You have made the arrangements with the wedding planning company.”
Leah and Liliane failed to grasp the true meaning behind Bradley’s words, thinking that he had succumbed to the pressure of public opinion and agreed to the wedding date. They felt a secret. sense of accomplishment.
“Brad, if you have any suggestions, please let us know. We can communicate with the wedding planning company in a timely manner.”
Bradley remained expressionless, a stoic iceberg standing before Liliane.
Completely absorbed in the excitement of having a wedding date set, Liliane failed to notice. the storm brewing within the man before her.
“You have handled everything well.” Bradley’s voice was firm and commanding, revealing no hint of the emotions he was experiencing.
