Chapter 836

"Connor, let me out," Claire demanded, her voice tinged with frustration.

Connor remained calm as ever. "Sister, just hang tight here for a bit. Once the wedding's wrapped up, I'll make sure you get to a beautiful retreat in Switzerland. It's way nicer than this place. I know it's a bit of a hassle, but try to bear with it, okay?"

The golden expanse looked like knights in shining armor, guarding a sacred castle of love.

Chloe fell in love with the place instantly.

In the Eldridge Elites community, there was a tradition: the night before the wedding, the bride stayed at her family home. The next day, when the groom came to collect her, the family would set up obstacles for him to overcome before he could reach the bride.
