Tempted Trapped and Too Late to Run novel Chapter 93

The Bradford family and Ada were seriously quick on the draw. While Clara was still laid up at home, nursing her injury, her phone buzzed with a call from Megan. "Clara, are you and Nate tying the knot?"

Clara paused, her brows knitting together. "Who told you that?"

"Nate was at Moonlight today, totally plastered, bragging to everyone that you're his wife. He even said the Bradford family is all for it, and the wedding's set for the end of the month. There were others there too. They said they got invites from the Bradford family."

Clara felt a sudden heaviness in her chest. She quickly fished out her phone, found Simon’s contact, and called him up. No answer.

A wave of unease swept over her. She dialed Ryan next.

Ryan picked up, sounding chipper. "Clara, isn’t Nate supposed to pick you up for your dress fitting? The housekeeper’s already off booking the hotel. You’re getting hitched soon, so aren’t you coming back? I saw the wedding dresses delivered this afternoon and thought you’d tried them on already."

Everyone seemed clued in on her impending nuptials. Everyone except her.

Clara found it all so ridiculous. She took a deep breath, but even after hanging up, she felt like she was suffocating. No one had bothered to ask her what she wanted. It was as if they’d just drag her to the altar, no questions asked as she had no say in it.

Rage bubbled up inside her.

She grabbed the dossier Dylan had given her, meticulously checking each person’s details. Her eyes finally landed on Ada’s name.
