Chapter 985: Chapter 991

Matthew was too conspicuous. As a former love rival, Dexter noticed him immediately.

The bodyguard inside the venue stepped forward. “We just received the news and were planning to go out and meet them, but unexpectedly, they were brought in here.”

Dexter remained calm. “Let it be.”

On stage, Calvin couldn’t hold on much longer. He hurriedly delivered his closing remarks, but in reality, no one cared about what he had to say in this context. Most of the attendees today were primarily interested in networking with the influential and powerful.

Claudia received no response from Dexter, so she turned and headed backstage, hoping to speak with Heather again. However, someone stopped her.

“Claudia.”

A well-dressed man, around forty to fifty years old, stood before her with a pleasant smile.

“Nathan?” Claudia exclaimed in disbelief.

The man standing before her was none other than Mark’s younger brother, Nathan Olsen. For many years, he had been living abroad, yet surprisingly, he had returned for this wedding.

“You seem quite surprised to see me,” Nathan said with a smile. “Am I not welcome?”

“Of course not. When did you return? Why didn’t you come home to visit?”

Nathan had always been rather incompetent, yet he had delusions of interfering in the Olsen family’s business. He had overstepped his boundaries in the past, leading to Mark banishing him to live abroad.

He had never returned in all these years.

Mark did not like his younger brother.

“I was afraid that Mark would be angry when he saw me, but today presented a good opportunity for me to sincerely apologize to him. I wonder if you could help me.” Nathan’s face was filled with anticipation.

“Of course. But he’s not here today, so you might have to wait.”

Nathan narrowed his eyes. “His daughter has been found. Why didn’t he come to see her on her wedding day? Could it be his health…”

“No,” Claudia quickly responded. “He’s held up by something.”

Truth be told, even she was puzzled. Mark should have been happily present today, but he didn’t show up. It was very strange indeed.

Nathan suddenly had a moment of realization, then continued to inquire about Liana. “I feel guilty towards my niece. I want to apologize to her in person.”

There was a flicker in Claudia’s eyes.

At that moment, someone suddenly broke into the dressing room through the window. Heather was startled, looking incredulously at the person before her.

“You…”

Morgan jumped down from the window, walked up to Heather, and lifted her chin. “Ms. Olsen, we’ve met before.”

“Mr. Bastille!” Heather was surprised to find that he had already returned to Wavery. “What are you doing?”

“We’re all intelligent people. Let’s get straight to the point, shall we? Where is Josie?”

Heather was forced to tilt her head back. She scoffed, “Why must you make things difficult for me, Mr.

Bastille? I have no idea.”

“If you have no idea, then who in this world would?” Morgan increased his grip. Laura couldn’t pinpoint the exact location, so he had to take matters into his own hands.

“Ms. Olsen, I’ve managed to divert the attention of all the bodyguards outside. If you don’t want to miss this wedding, tell me the truth.”

Heather’s mind was filled with chaos as she quickly formulated a plan.

“You can stop pondering. I know everything about you.” Morgan shattered her illusions directly.

Just then, Claudia managed to slip away from Nathan. She knocked on the door and called out, “Leanne, can I come in?”

“Moth—” Morgan covered her mouth. He whispered into her ear, “If you don’t speak up, I’ll tell Claudia right now that you’re not Liana, and you stole everything you have from Josie.”

Each word, each sentence, pierced her heart like a dagger.
