Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 1834

Like a puppet with its strings suddenly cut, Carol was frozen in place; there was a wild guess scratching at the edges of her mind, yet she felt it was too outlandish to believe.

She struggled to keep her eyes open until the early hours but eventually surrendered to sleep.

The next morning, Felix was back to the grindstone, dealing with the wedding preparations. They were supposed to have the rehearsal today, but Carol wasn't up for it, and Felix didn't push. After leaving a kiss on her lips, he headed out.

Since yesterday, Felix had been almost frighteningly tender, leading Carol to half-jokingly wonder if he'd been body swapped.

Felix arrived at the hotel where their wedding would soon unfold. It was almost completely decked out, and the wedding coordinator was bustling about to make sure everything was perfect.

After triple-checking every detail and finding no faults, he called Nathan.

Nathan showed up; his envy bubbled beneath the surface as he took in the beautifully decorated venue. He knew he wasn't worthy of Carol—so what if she was just toying with him? He'd accepted that. But was Felix any more deserving?

No one was good enough for Carol, Nathan thought bitterly.

"This gorgeous setup? Carol's gonna hate it," Nathan muttered under his breath.

Felix was oblivious to his friend's turmoil. He knew Nathan's track record with women was a ticking time bomb, but he never imagined Carol would be the one caught in the crosshairs.

"Nathan, could you sync up with the coordinator? The route for the best man is all mapped out for tomorrow," Felix instructed, unaware of the storm brewing inside his friend.

Nathan forced a smile to hide his discontent. It was odd how well he was concealing his emotions today, especially in front of Felix.

He had his hand clenched at his side, and felt his heart racing.

He needed to get Carol out of there. They had to leave.

By the afternoon, everything was confirmed and in order.

"How about we grab a drink?" Nathan suggested, trying to sound casual.
