Chapter 435 She Shows Up

Whitney truly gave her all for the Sanders. Thanks to her, Taylor made arrangements for them to take a bath that night.

Amber, on the other hand, didn't seem to care much about the Sanders. Maybe she was too worn out dealing with me and decided to pack up and return to the Doltons overnight. I didn't see her all day.

Tomorrow night was Taylor and Whitney's wedding. I wasn't sure why, but I felt uneasy like something bad was about to happen.

It reminded me of the night before my wedding, when I couldn't sleep and kept tossing and turning.

Carter noticed and sat up to look at me. "What's wrong, Chloe?"

"I'm going to check on the Sanders."

Carter looked at me seriously. "Chloe."

"I'm just a little nervous. Something went wrong on my wedding day, and I'm scared something might happen to Whitney too."

"Taylor isn't like Luke. He loves Whitney and wants this wedding to be perfect. He had her wedding dress ready two years ago and went through over 20 designs to get it just right. The dress has 999 diamonds, all hand-set by him. He's even put aside his hate for the Sanders just to make sure they're safe. He won't let anyone ruin this wedding."

Carter tried to reassure me. "Don't worry. I'll protect you."

"Hmm."

"If you want to check on them, I'll come with you."

It wasn't that I truly wanted to see the Sanders; I just couldn't sleep. Every time I tried to lie down, my heart would race, and I felt restless.

The Carlyn Residence was quiet at night, with no servants around. The stairs to the basement were dark. Before I could turn on the lights, someone came rushing up from below.

A tall figure dressed in black appeared, looking almost like a ghost.

"Ah!" I gasped, instinctively stepping back. My heel caught on a step, and I nearly fell.

Two strong hands caught me, pressing me against Carter's chest. I finally exhaled in relief.

When the figure came closer, I recognized him as Amber's bodyguard the dangerous guy Yael had warned me about.

He was one step below me, slightly taller than me, and radiated an intimidating presence.

My legs wobbled as I leaned against Carter.

Without saying a word, he left.
