Chapter 1260 Under House Arrest (1)

"No freakin' way," Joe blurted out, jumping up like a spring. "We said the wedding's tomorrow, so it's tomorrow. Everyone's already here, why the sudden change?" "Shut it," Amanda snapped, her voice dripping with anger. "We've made the call, and you don't get a say."

"Dad!" Joe pleaded, his voice shaky. "Tristan not being here doesn't change anything. We can have another ceremony when he shows up."

"Enough," Craig said, his tone firm. "This wedding isn't just about you two. It's about the royal family's reputation and the Louis family's safety. You can't just do whatever you want." "Exactly," Amanda added, standing up. "We need to go to a press conference to announce the delay and sort out the guests in Sunvale. Joe, you're coming with us. And as for you..." Amanda turned to Sadie, her eyes cold. "You'll stay home. The servants will treat you like a princess. If you need anything, ask Callie. But you can't leave the castle."

"Duchess Louis, are you seriously putting me under house arrest?" Sadie smirked. "You won't let me out until Tristan shows up, right?"

"Think what you want," Amanda sneered. "I haven't even dealt with your scandal with Micah. This is for both families' reputations. Even if Tristan questions it later, I won't be wrong." "Sadie," Craig's voice softened. "We're worried about your safety too. The castle's big. Swim, read, do whatever. Just hang in there for a few days."
