Chapter 366 Her Wedding

Zane was so scared of real life that even walking out the door felt impossible.

Clarence was the calmest among them.

But deep down, he knew the only reason he could stay calm was because he couldn’t afford to fall apart.

If he broke down, there was no one left to help. His parents were too old, while Zane was useless. One of his sisters was kind and responsible, but she had turned her back on them. The other only cared when life was good, and she’d already burned every bridge.

From now on, Clarence knew he was completely alone.

Every night, anxiety kept him awake. He’d roll around until morning, losing hair from all the stress. The polite, well–off air he used to have was gone. Now, he was just another guy grinding to get by.

Nobody talked about Claudia anymore.

After Clarence got home that day and passed along Claudia’s message, Lottie broke down crying. She gave away most of Claudia’s old clothes and toys, keeping only one doll that Claudia used to love.

Later that night, when Clarence woke up, he found Wilson sitting in the living room under the lamp, flipping through old photo albums and smoking in silence.

They all knew their relationship with Claudia was beyond repair.

Leaving her alone was the kindest thing they could do now.

Their only regret was realizing it all too late.

Clarence glanced at the news on his phone. Jasper, who had already fallen out of favor, was getting ready to marry his fiancée right after she got out of prison. The internet was full of gossip about the disgraced heir and the crippled heiress clinging to each other for comfort. He clenched his fingers tightly.

They couldn’t repay what they owed Claudia in this life, but they still had to deal with Lydia.

Everyone had to face the consequences of their choices.

Lydia was determined to make her wedding as grand as possible, almost maxing out every card Jasper gave her.

The hotel had to be top–notch, the flowers were freshly flown in, the food was the best, and the photographers were the most professional team around.

She ignored all the gossip, desperate to prove with a showy wedding that she wasn’t a total loser.

But she completely missed the looks of disdain from the Fentons.

Jasper, on the other hand, was miserable.

So that was what it felt like to be forced into marrying someone he didn’t love. When the Lancasters had pushed Claudia into an engagement with him, had she also felt that disgusted?

He drank every day, refusing to look at any of the wedding plans Lydia brought up.

Tybalt had already lost hope in Jasper. Watching Lydia obsess over wedding details just made him irritated and ashamed.

He just wanted the wedding to be done, to hand them some money, cut all ties, and finally end the messy father–son relationship.

He had enough sons that losing one didn’t matter to him.

Sylvia, meanwhile, couldn’t care less anymore.

She looked down on Lydia, but Jasper refused to talk about it. She told him to get divorced before things blew up publicly, but he ignored her.

Sylvia got so mad that she stopped trying.

Why bother? Everyone knew Lydia’s real motives. Even if Sylvia pushed Jasper to fix his life, it’d only make Lydia’s win bigger.

She might as well wait for Lydia to get tired of it all.

The only one who actually enjoyed being part of the wedding talk was William.

Watching the two of them was like watching a circus act. He couldn’t wait to see them officially chained together in front of everyone.

He’d spent his whole life as an illegitimate son, watching Jasper’s perfect life from the shadows. Now that everything had flipped, he was savoring every second.

Time passed in that awkward atmosphere, and soon it was the day of Lydia and Jasper’s wedding.

They never sent an invitation to Sterling, and Lydia didn’t dare invite Claudia either.

If Claudia actually showed up, Jasper might call off the whole wedding on the spot. Lydia wasn’t about to let that happen.
