Lily’s mouth hung open for a long time, unable to close Yet Yunice’s expression was even darker than hers. She stared coldly at Luke, “You’re saying… the one engaged to the Powell family is me?”
Luke smiled family. “Yes”
With a heavy thud. Lily’s legs gave way, and she copsed onto the sofa.
Giana, watching the scene unfold, quietly <b>slipped </b><b>away </b>to call Owen.
Yunice showed no trace of joy. Her voice was low and steady. I already signed the annulment papers. How could I possibly be marrying Paul!”
Luke replied calmly, “Ms. Saunders, you’ve misunderstood. Mr. Jackson didn’t arrange for you to marry Mr. Paul
Lily, who <b>had </b>just lifted her head in shock, felt like her heart was riding a roller coaster.
It doesn’t matter who Yunice married. As long as it’s not Paul
Yunice frowned. Then who is it?”
Luke answered slowly, “It’s Mr. Cooper
What!
It felt as though fireworks exploded inside Yunice’s mind.
“Wyan?!” Lily was still struggling to make sense of everything. But <b>as </b>though something just struck her, she screamed. “Mr. Jackson wants Yunice to marry <b>Wyatt</b>?!”
“Yes, Luke answered.
Lily nearly lost her voice. “How can that be! Wyatt is Paul’s uncle! If Yunice marries him, wouldn’t that <b>make </b>her a generation above Elsie?!”
In the future, wouldn’t Elsie have to call Yunice Aunt? How could the possibly ept that humiliation?
But <b>Luke </b>merely sneered, his tone filled with disdain. That won’t happen.”
Lily refused to give up. “Why not?!”
<b>Luke </b>cut her off sharply. “Because the Powell family will never let Ms. Elsie marry in. Madam Lily, you’re overthinking it.”
That single word, overthinking,nded on Lily’s face like a merciless p<b>. </b>
Finally, <b>Luke </b>stopped ying nice. “Even the engagement gifts from a few days ago were sent by Mr. Jackson on behalf of Mr. Cooper. They are for Ms. Saunders. It had nothing to do with Ms. Elsie. The Powell family never

But Yunice coldly pushed the measuring tools away. Her voice was frosty. “I knew nothing of this marriage. I don’t agree to it. Whoever promised you this marriage go find them!”
Then, she spun around and stormed back to her room, bolting the door shut behind her.
Outside, Luke and Lily exchanged helpless nces.
To Lily, this was a chance and a way out. She hurriedly suggested, Perhaps… Luke, you <b>should </b>return for
now!
Once he left, she could properly discuss things with Owen and figure out <b>their </b>next move.
Damn! Of all times, where on earth had Owen gone? She had not been able to reach him on the phone this whole time.
But to Lily’s horror, Luke did not leave as expected. Instead, he calmly sat down on the <b>sofa</b><b>, </b>settling in like he owned the ce. It seems the Saunders family has some misunderstandings about this marriage. ?n that case, I shall wait here until Mr. Owen returns. Then <b>we’ll </b>settle this matter properly.”
Yunice sat alone in her room, while Lily wept in the living room, feeling heartbroken that Elsie’s wedding had somehow turned into Yunice’s,
Elsie was the first to rush back, bringing with her Paul, who sat in his wheelchair.
And Owen’s phone was still unreachable.
The moment Elsie stepped into the house, her legs turned weak. When she saw Luke sitting there, her heart sank
This was not a nightmare. This was not some prank by Lily. The Powell family really had changed the
bride.
Paul’s brows furrowed deeply. He had only learned about the engagement gift after Elsie cried at the hospital. He still had not figured out who had spread the false rumor about him marrying Elsie, and yet now he was being told that Yunice was marrying Wyatt?
Wheeling himself into the room, Paul’s sharp gazended directly on Luke.
Such a massive upheaval in the <b>Powell </b>family, and he, the precious son of the house, had been thest to know. Did the Powell family even remember he existed?
With Paul’s arrival, <b>Luke </b>no longer dared to remain sealed.
Paul’s voice <b>was </b>icy. “How can Yunice marry Wyatt? I was the one who broke off her engagement. Do you intend for the entire Silverburgh to point <b>at </b>my <b>back </b>andugh?”
<b>Luke </b>replied respectfully. “Mr. Paul, I don’t <b>know </b>the details either. Everything was arranged by Mr. Jackson. I’m merely following orders.”
Paul had still been holding on to the hope <b>that </b>this was some kind of misunderstanding. But judging from. the situation now, it was real
