Under the Veil I Rule

Chapter 261

The words might not have been inappropriate, but at a wedding, they felt a tad out of place. The room fell silent for a moment, yet Elysia remained unfazed, smiling warmly at Amara.

Amara accepted the bouquet, gave Elysia a hug, and said, "Ely, you deserve all the happiness in the world. Remember to always love yourself."

In a typical wedding, the emcee might tease the maid of honor a bit.

But knowing that this maid of honor was the ex-wife of the Everly family's big shot, who also happened to be the best man, he decided against it. With just a couple of words, he ushered Amara off the stage.

The ceremony soon wrapped up, and Elysia carefully lifted her wedding gown as she descended from the stage. Amara was quick to help with the dress, and they, along with the wedding planner and others, made their way to the bridal suite. There, Elysia would change into her reception dress and get a new hairstyle before joining her husband in greeting their guests.

A knock echoed from the door as the makeup artist was just finishing Elysia's outfit change. "Who is it?" she asked.

Dorian's voice came from the other side, prompting the makeup artist to open the door.

Dorian strode in, ignoring both the makeup artist and Amara, who was lounging on the sofa. "Leave us," he commanded, eyes fixed solely on Elysia.
