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."

"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."
