Chapter 0035

The day of the wedding arrived before I knew it.

Everything was so busy; the entire morning felt hectle as I cushed around, trying to ensure that every detail was handled appropriately..

I wasn’t sure where David was, except that he had told me he needed to arrange parking and transportation. I suspected he was actually avoiding all the hard work, but I didn’t comment on it.

My mood was surprisingly upbeat, partially because I had spoken to Alexander early this morning. I made sure that he was planning on attending the ceremony and that a of the things I needed for my plan were secured.

Alexander had taken care of the list of items I had sent him. He’d arranged for everything to be delivered after the ceremony started so that no one would see things being brought into the building. I didn’t want anything to spoil the surprise.

I had figured out exactly how I could expose Amanda and David in the act, all the while making it seem like I was only being a caring friend.

I would finally expose the truth, and there would be no way for Amanda and David to deny it.

Of course, this was a lot of work to ask of Alexander. I owed him once again. But when I asked him what he wanted in exchange, he told me to consider it a wedding gift.

Part of me was suspicious of his willingness to go out of his way for me. Of course, it would all benefit him in the end, too.

I made sure the staff at the mansion knew that people would be drinking and that every available room should be ready for guests. I didn’t want anyone to feel they had to drive home unsafely if they had too much to drink.

Besides, the more people who stayed the night, the more witnesses there would be when I exposed David and Amanda. I wanted as many people as possible to see it with their own eyes–David wouldn’t be able to lie his way out of it with a crowd.

When the bar staff arrived, I went to speak with them. We had a number of very fancy and delicious cocktails on the menu, all with a high alcohol content. I wanted to ensure the staff knew to serve as much as possible, especially since we were providing transportation and rooms for the guests.
