Under the Veil I Rule

Chapter 251

Outside the house, a group of people stood anxiously. Leading the pack was Dorian, his face a mask of frustration, alongside a makeup artist who looked equally distressed.

As soon as the makeup artist saw her, he hurried over, asking, "Bridesmaid, is the bride still not out yet?"

"We've only got half an hour before the reception starts. There's no time for a full makeover or hairstyle. She could maybe change into her dress and get a quick touch-up... but she can't possibly walk down the aisle without any makeup!"

The makeup artist was practically tearing his hair out, while Dorian radiated anger like a thundercloud about to burst.

He brushed past Amara, striding up to Elysia's door and knocking loudly. "Elysia, get out here!" he demanded, his voice a low growl. "The wedding's in half an hour! What on earth are you doing?"
