Both Paul and Taylor frowned, as they thought, <i>Such </i><i>filthy </i><i>curses</i>.

Wyatt lifted the car window as he turned and held Yunice’s hand. The wedding convoy then drove out of Paul’s sight.
Yunice lifted her head as she looked at his expression through the bridal veil.
Wyatt was indeed in a good mood; delight could be seen lingering at the corners of his eyes and brows<b>. </b>
On the other hand, Yunice didn’t particrly feel anything. Having lived through so much turmoil, she had learned to stay at ease wherever she ended up.
Upon arriving at the hotel, Yunice was waiting backstage. Freya and Jordan were staying by her side.
Jordan said, “Even though it’s the final step, Wyatt is still worried, fearing someone mighte and abduct Mrs. Cooper.”
Freya leaned over the makeup mirror and said, in a mocking tone, “I never knew he was this obsessed with Mrs. Cooper.”
Upon speaking, Freya lifted Yunice’s chin and said, “Let me see how the makeup turned out.”
She gazed for a long time, and after some time, she asked, “Has anybody ever told you that you are such a beauty?”
There was no trace left of the injury Paul had caused on her face<b>. </b>
After spending a few days with Wyatt, her face started to turn plumper. Without noticing, the once dull and lifeless Yunice had now turned into a luminous beauty with sparkling eyes.
Yunice wasn’t the type with striking facial features. Instead, her charm unfolded like a gentle drizzle<b>–</b>the more you looked at her, the more you found her gorgeous.
Freya then <b>reacted</b>, “No wonder Wyatt <b>is </b><b>so </b>obsessed with you. It turns out he <b>is </b>attracted to your beauty.”
“Mrs. Cooper<b>, </b><b>it </b><b>is </b>about time you get on stage. Would you mind moving to the fitting room now<b>? </b>We would like to do <b>a </b>second check on the wedding suit.” A staff member approached, gave a polite bow, and asked <b>her</b><b>. </b>
Yunice was startled when <b>the </b><b>staff </b>member called her “Mrs. Cooper,” but then she thought she was making a fuss out of it.
Thus, she stood up and walked towards the fitting room.

“Mrs. Cooper, I was asked to pass on a message to you: Have you informed Melina of your wedding?”
Yunice nced back, and an instant cold flickered in her eyes.
Just as the staff member was about to speak again, Yunice took a step forward. With a swift motion, she pierced a fine silver needle into the highest point of her head.

Feeling an instant numbness, the staff member was stunned as she tried to grab onto something for support. But unconsciousness soon took over as she copsed onto the floor.
Yunice stayed in her ce, expressionless.
<i>Melina </i><i>is </i>blind, <i>and </i>she’s always by <i>herself </i><i>all </i><i>the </i><i>time</i>. How <i>could </i><i>she </i>possibly know <i>about </i><i>my </i>wedding <i>today</i>? <i>Unless </i><i>someone </i><i>is </i><i>trying </i>to stir up trouble <i>using </i><i>her</i><i>. </i><i>Carl </i>made <i>up </i><i>my </i><i>death</i><i>, </i>and <i>only </i><i>those </i><i>of </i><i>my </i><i>close </i><i>acquaintances </i>knew I was still alive. <i>Who </i>is <i>trying </i>to set <i>me </i>up<i>? </i>Yunice thought.
Yunice made a phone call: “Kingsley, are you at my wedding already?”
Her gaze shifted slightly as she continued in a low voice, “There is a woman who has fainted in the fitting room backstage. Can you take care of her for me? I don’t want any unexpected urrence during my wedding today.”
After hanging up the call, Yunice walked out of the fitting room as if nothing had happened.
Neither Freya nor Jordan realized. With one on each side, they escorted her to the main doors behind the banquet hall.
As Owen and his group came to the banquet hall, the bride and groom hadn’te in yet.
They looked around and spotted a few people featured in the financial publications among the guests<b>. </b>
A gleam of envy dazzled in her eyes as Elsie said, “I know that Mr. Carl <b>is </b>capable, but I don’t know that he has such a vastwork.<b>” </b>
Carl’s fame and status were definitely on par with the Powell family.
It <b>was </b>at this moment that Owen spotted a figure, as he pointed towards the figure and said, “It was Oscar.<b>” </b>
Lily and Elsie looked over <b>as </b>they <b>saw </b>Oscar mingling among the crowd alone, with his eyes roaming across the area.
Owen said, clearly annoyed. “Oscar gets mad and refuses <b>to </b>visit the Powell family; instead, he secretly attends this banquet held by the Crawford family. Don’t tell me he also wants Mr. Carl to acknowledge him as his honorary son.”
The fact that Oscar had been eveing Saunders Hospital bothered him as he scoffed. “What a

However, Elsie held <i>a </i>different thought from him, and in a nervous tone, she said, “Owen, I remembered that Wyatt’s wedding ceremony is also held in this hotel. Could it be that he still hasn’t gotten over Yunice’s death and intends on ruining his wedding out of spite?”
Startled, Owen widened his eyes and said, “How could that not be possible? It is very likely to happen!”
“Isn’t he digging his own grave! You two stay here; I’ll go get Oscar!” Owen said as he rushed through the crowd and searched for Oscar.
Deep down, Owen knew the reason behind Yunice’s death. If Oscar falsely used that jinx out of impulse, things were going to get out of hand.
Owen grabbed him at once and shouted, “Oscar, follow me!”
Oscar gave Owen a once–over, and, without moving, he asked, “What are you doing here?”
Owen roared in his low voice, “Obviously, I’m here to stop you frommitting something stupid! Do you know what kind of person Wyatt is? Trust me, before you rush onto the stage, you will be dragged out and beaten to death by his bodyguard!”
