Chapter 527:
“We’ll guard the door. No one will disturb her p>
After Carlee and the others stepped into the adjoining room, Amelia finally surrendered to her fatigue and drifted off, her body resting against the sofa’s armrest.
At that very moment, the doors of the wardrobe inside the room eased open with a faint creak. Two shadowy figures emerged, one clad in a wedding gown. What was shocking was her face — it looked exactly like Amelia’s.
“Hurry up p>
At the woman’s command, the man beside her pressed a handkerchief against Amelia’s nose and mouth. After making sure Amelia had lost consciousness, he lifted her into his arms. Carrying her through the hidden passage inside the wardrobe, he disappeared, leaving the woman behind to take Amelia’s place on the sofa.

Relatives from both the Stewart and Chadwick families stopped by the lounge to see the bride, but upon hearing she was sleeping, they all left.
Time slipped away until eleven forty, when Carlee finally stepped inside to rouse Amelia. With a playful grin, she nudged her friend. “Wake up already! The ceremony is about to begin p>
“Alright,” said “Amelia,” opening her eyes and smiling faintly.
Carlee’s eyes narrowed as she studied her. Was it her mind playing tricks on her? Somehow, Amelia seemed a bit different.
Convincing herself it was nothing more than wedding nerves, Carlee brushed off the thought and turned away.
Within minutes, Weston stepped into the lounge. Though his body was still weak from his injuries, he was still here to attend Amelia and Wyatt’s wedding.
When his gaze fell on “Amelia,” dressed in white with a tiara resting on her head, tears welled in his eyes. He smiled and said, “Amelia, you look absolutely stunning today p>
“Thank you, Dad,” “Amelia” replied while slipping her hand through his arm.
The gesture caught Weston off guard. Then, joy quickly spread across his face. At last, Amelia was willing to be close to him!
As she witnessed the tender exchange between father and daughter, Carlee found herself feeling confused. Having known Amelia for years, she understood her better than anyone else. Behind Amelia’s lively exterior, there had always been a quiet, sensitive side. Since Amelia had only recently reconciled with Weston, it seemed unusual for her to display such warmth toward him.
“What’s the matter?” asked Nora and Kelsey as they noticed Carlee standing frozen in place.
Although her instincts told her something wasn’t right, Carlee brushed it off. She managed a gentle smile and said, “It’s nothing. I guess I’m just feeling sentimental p>
Because they were well aware of the bond between Carlee and Amelia, Nora and Kelsey simply shared a knowing smile and said nothing more.
When noon arrived, the banquet hall doors opened slowly from within. With Weston at her side, “Amelia” walked toward the stage with elegance.
