The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never
Chapter 956

Hannah and Bryson occupied a nearby sofa.

Hannah glanced up at Alick with a subtle smile.

“What’s got you so anxious today? Anything on your mind? Is it because of the engagement nerves, or is there something else?”

She paused intentionally in her speech, fixing her gaze on Alick’s face.

“What’s occupying your thoughts?”

Alick avoided eye contact with Hannah, quickly averting his gaze, and replied, “Nothing is bothering me.

Stop teasing me.

”

“Well, if you have nothing else to say, please get out.

We need to change.

”

Alick’s eyes reflexively fell on the closet.

“Ah… Well…” He turned to Bryson and started to say, “Mr.

Mitchell is also here, so “Please get out as well, Mr.

Mitchell,” Hannah cut him off, her eyes fixed on Bryson.

Bryson did not protest.

He stood up and buttoned his suit jacket.

“I’ll wait outside.

”

Left with no choice, Alick trudged through the door, his heart pounding furiously inside his chest.

As soon as the door clicked shut behind him, he heard the conversation resume inside the room.

“The makeup artist and the stylist were supposed to have dropped by earlier to deliver the dress.

It’s probably in the closet, I’ll go and look.

”

No sooner had Hannah’s fingers brushed against the closet handle when Alick pushed the door open again.

“Wait a minute!” he yelled in a panic upon seeing her about to open the closet.

Lydia whipped around with a frown.

“Why are you in here again? What else do you want?”

“Well, I… There’s nothing inside that closet.

I opened it earlier and the stylist didn’t put anything in there.

I’ll go fetch them and bring the dress over, okay?”

Lydia raised her eyebrows.

“Whatever.

Forget it, let’s just wait here, Hannah.

”

Alick bristled.

If they continued to stay in this room, they were bound to discover Eliana sooner or later.

“Why don’t you go and check the venue? Don’t you think you should rehearse the order of events for later?”

This time, Lydia narrowed her eyes in suspicion.

“We’re only getting engaged today.

What need is there for a rehearsal?”
