"Maybe we should just cancel the wedding this time..."
Before she could finish her sentence, the phone in Sebastian Blackwood’s pocket rang.
The man calmly let go of her and walked toward the study.
"Master Blackwood, we found out who met with Madam today."
It was Owen Rhodes calling, "Just an ordinary university teacher."
The file showed no blemishes or irregularities.
After a moment of silence, Sebastian Blackwood finally responded with a hmm.
He decided to believe, for the moment, that Leo Sherman was the friend Ivy Kensington had mentioned.
The days went by quickly, and as the wedding drew near, Ivy Kensington grew increasingly anxious.
She couldn’t possibly disregard the fate of Nanny...
The night before the wedding.
Sebastian Blackwood noticed Ivy Kensington’s absent-mindedness, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, suddenly asking, "Has Claire Crowley been contacting you lately?"
Ever since Nanny was taken away by Claire Crowley, he had people secretly watching Claire’s movements.
Although nothing suspicious had been detected, there could always be a slip somewhere.
Ivy Kensington’s heart skipped a beat, but she shook her head in the end, "No."
Claire Crowley had warned her that if she dared to reveal their deal to Sebastian Blackwood, Nanny’s safety wouldn’t be guaranteed. She couldn’t afford to gamble on that.
Upon hearing this, Sebastian Blackwood’s breathing became slightly heavy. He lowered his head and kissed the woman’s forehead with his thin lips.
"Don’t worry, tomorrow’s wedding will certainly go smoothly."
The wedding was set to start officially at ten in the morning, with the entire upper echelon of Celestia in attendance. It was a grand wedding indeed.
From the decoration, it was clear that Sebastian Blackwood had put his heart into this wedding.
Every little detail reflected his care for Ivy Kensington.
In the bridal makeup room.
As the maid of honor, Sharon Langley stayed by Ivy Kensington’s side throughout.
"Ivy, are you feeling unwell?"
Sharon, noticing that Ivy had been staring blankly at one spot, asked, concerned.
Ivy Kensington looked at her, opened her mouth, and finally choked up when she started speaking.
"Sharon, I don’t know what to do." ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by NovelHub(.)net
Unable to hold it in, she confided in Sharon about Claire Crowley’s threat with Nanny. Sharon was furious, "That bitch, how can she be so shameless!"
Stealing the child that originally belonged to Ivy Kensington and now using the child to threaten Ivy and Sebastian Blackwood into divorcing—no normal person would do such a thing.
Moreover, on such an important day, if Ivy truly backed out at this moment, it would undoubtedly be a slap in the face to Sebastian Blackwood!
It would be the end for them!
"Sharon, I mentioned delaying the wedding date to Sebastian Blackwood, but... he seemed unwilling. I have no choice. With the situation as it is, I don’t know what to do..."
Ivy Kensington said confusedly, her heart becoming slightly swayed.
Having deceived Sebastian Blackwood so many times, this time, perhaps she should pretend not to know what Claire Crowley said and just go through with the wedding...
Just as this thought crossed her mind, ding, her phone rang.
It was a video sent by Claire Crowley!
In the video, someone was placing Nanny onto a conveyor belt, and at the end of the conveyor belt was a meat grinder!
Poor Nanny was still unaware of what was happening, thinking the adults were playing with her, biting her little finger and giggling with a big smile.
