Chapter 1259 Postponing the Wedding

After a quick freshen-up, Sadie strutted out of the bathroom, looking all put together. She slipped into a sharp suit that screamed both class and boss vibes, then signaled Annika and Arya to follow her to the study.

A bunch of attendants were hanging around outside the study, and folks were even crowding the stairs. Looked like they were gearing up to head out soon.

Joe came strolling down the opposite hallway and bumped into Sadie. He grabbed her hand and whispered, "Sadie, I just found out they spilled the beans to Mom and Dad about what went down that day. If they give you any grief, don't sweat it. I got your back."

Sadie glanced at Joe, feeling all sorts of conflicted. He had no clue his parents had already given her a hard time yesterday, and she had managed to handle it.

He thought they had called her over today to sort things out, worried she might get the short end of the stick.

Sadie felt super grateful for his love and protection. The more he cared, the tougher it was for her to spill the truth.

"Also," Joe went on, "a lot of big shots are here today. Later, Mom, Dad, and I will greet the guests. They might bring up the wedding. If they say anything that bugs you, just brush it off. I'll take care of it."

Joe was all about Sadie's well-being. He was worried Tristan might not show up and that his parents might say something to upset her, so he was prepping her in advance.
