Chapter 238 Hidden Truths and Empty Graves
Yunice was still having tea with Carl.
Freya stood nearby, seamlessly refilling their cups while chiming in now and then, helping smooth out the wedding day logistics Carl was handling.
But Yunice noticed Freya kept glancing at her.
Curious, she finally asked, “Freya, is something wrong? You keep looking at me.”

Freya put the teapot down and replied with interest, “Your dress. I’ve been trying to figure out
which brand it is, but I can’t.”
Yunice checked the seams and realized–there was no logo at all.
“Wyatt gave it to me. Maybe it’s custom made…” She trailed off, realizing something didn’t add up. Custom clothing required measurements–and no one had ever taken hers.
Even the tailor Luke brought to the Saunders home hadn’t collected any actual numbers.
So how did this dress fit her so perfectly?
Freya frowned. “That’s odd. Even with custom work, designers usually leave a mark inside the cuff. It’s a status symbol. Nothing on this? That’s strange.”
Yunice shrugged it off. “Maybe Wyatt doesn’t care about that stuff. Maybe he just grabbed it off a rack somewhere.”
So maybe the tag just wasn’t legit.
As they chatted, someone knocked on the door.
Freya gave them a knowing look and smiled. “I bet that’s Mr. Wyatt. Couldn’t wait to come collect
you.”
Yunice was a beat too slow to catch the teasing tone in Freya’s voice, She lowered her absentmindedly tracing circles on her teacup.
She had no idea Carl had been watching her closely the entire time.

than that.
Freya opened the door–and froze.
It wasn’t Wyatt.
It was Paul.

Yunice looked at Carl, who subtly gestured for her to hide behind the screen.
Finished
With the wedding so close, it was better to stay hidden–just in case someone decided to cause trouble.
Outside, Paul said, “Ms. Freya, I need to speak with Mr. Carl.”
