Blizzard, First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 252

Isabel glanced at the time. “I’ll fly back as soon as the wedding is over, but I probably won’t get to Aurelia City until the middle of the night. Don’t stay up late, okay? Go to bed early.”

“I will.”

Amanda chatted with Isabel for a few more moments before Julian called her for breakfast, so they ended the call.

After they ate, Julian brought in a styling team to give them a makeover.

“Is all this formality necessary?”

“We’re already here, might as well,” he replied.

Isabel changed into a champagne-colored gown, while Julian wore a shirt in a matching shade.

They walked arm in arm to the wedding venue.

The wedding was clearly a rushed affair, but thanks to Adrian’s influence, it still exuded an air of expense and refinement.

Isabel left a monetary gift and signed Julian’s name in the guestbook.

An usher led them to their seats.

To their surprise, they were in the front row.

Julian chuckled. “Adrian really went to a lot of trouble.”

Isabel said nothing.

Time ticked by.

The guests had nearly all arrived.

Oliver and Mrs. Blackwell were also in the front row, seated at the same table as Isabel.

Mrs. Blackwell was clearly displeased, but the seating had been arranged, and she couldn't very well have Isabel at the main table while she, the groom's mother and mother-in-law-to-be, sat in the back.

She swallowed her frustration.

After all, Adrian had invited Isabel here to witness his wedding for one reason: to twist the knife. What could be more painful than watching the man you love marry another woman?

Oliver, on the other hand, was thrilled and sidled up next to Isabel.

Everyone knew he was Adrian’s son, so no one contested his spot.

Isabel didn’t spare him a glance, but Oliver didn’t seem to mind. Just sitting next to her was enough for him.

The time for the ceremony arrived, and the pastor was already waiting at the altar.

Isabel was somewhat distracted; when Adrian walked onto the stage, she was busy playing a matching game on her phone.

Selena could have ground her teeth to dust.

Even if Isabel wasn't with Adrian, she shouldn't be with Julian.

Julian had a bad reputation, but it was obvious he cared for Isabel.

He was wealthy, and Isabel would live a happy life with him.

Meanwhile, she, who was supposed to have a better life than Isabel, had ended up in this nightmare.

She was not willing to sacrifice her life for the person Adrian cared about.

During her confinement these past few days, she had managed to uncover some secrets.

It turned out she had been a pawn from the very beginning.

Adrian’s concern for her health, his claims that she was precious from head to toe—it wasn’t out of love. It was because he needed to use her.

At this thought, tears welled in her eyes, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.

The pastor, misinterpreting her emotion as excitement, asked the guests to applaud to give the bride courage.

But Selena suddenly ripped off her veil and lunged toward Isabel.
