"Miss Wigston, can we start now?"
Carla's stylist was waiting for her by the corridor.
"Sure." Carla prepared to head for the makeup room.
"Miss, Miss…" At that moment, Mrs. Borah cried out from downstairs. "Diane is here!"
"Diane?" Carla turned around and saw Diane standing meekly by the stairs.
"Carla!" Diane ran up excitedly. "Congratulations!"
"Thank you!" Carla grabbed onto her and scrutinized her from head to toe. "Have your wounds all healed?"
"Yes, they have." Diane nodded with a smile. "Thank you!"
"No thanks are needed. We're family, after all, so don't be a stranger, " Carla replied, holding her hand.
"Carla, I'll need to entertain Mr. Wigston's old friends. So, I'll leave Diane here with you." Mrs. Borah looked to be in a hurry. "I have to go now. Call me if you need anything."
"Alright, go on ahead." Carla nodded as she watched Mrs. Borah leave.
The house was bustling with activity as everyone was preparing for the wedding. The festive atmosphere naturally lifted everyone's spirits.
Everyone was busy with their own preparations except for Zayn, who was waiting for a call in the study.
"Mr. Giblo, everything is ready. Mr. Jombo has gone to the church ahead of time to receive friends and relatives…"
After he arrived in a hurry to report, Brandy saw Zayn staring blankly at his phone. He carefully asked, "Are you alright?"
Zayn was briefly silent before answering, "Is there any news from Solara?"
"No." Brandy shook his head and probed, "Has Miss Wigston…"
Brandy didn't dare finish the sentence but he got his answer by reading Zayn's expression.
"Don't worry. I've spoken to Naya in the morning. She said that Dr. Feroma's condition is improving. He should be awake very soon, " Brandy reassured softly.
"It seems she won't show herself unless I force her to." Spinning his phone around, Zayn looked up with an icy gaze. "Spread the word. We will attack Cloud Group with everything we have."
"Please reconsider, Mr. Giblo, " Brandy frantically remonstrated. "You have a ceasefire agreement with Miss Giblo to not interfere with each other's business. If you attack her, you will be in breach of that agreement."
"She was the one that started it." The thought of what Solara had done caused his blood to boil. "Is she any less guilty of breaching the agreement?"
"Right away." Not daring to push the matter, Brandy could only advise, "However, it's your wedding day today. I'm sure there's no need to rush. We still have time to think of a different plan once the wedding is over."
"It won't affect the wedding." Zayn checked the time on his watch. "By the time she sees the consequences, the timing would be about right."
"But…"
"Just do it!"
"Yes, Mr. Giblo!"
Brandy had no choice but to cascade Zayn's orders as he didn't dare disobey.
Divine Corporation was a high-tech company that employed an elite group of hackers. In just one hour, they could break through all of Cloud Group's systems.
The moment Cloud Group's systems were breached, they would experience massive losses every second.
Prior to this, Zayn had restrained himself as he assumed Dr. Feroma's apprentices could heal Carla. But seeing as Carla's poison was acting up again, Dr. Feroma was still in a coma, and Solara didn't respond despite having sent a message through Boris…
He was left with no choice.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. I must rat that woman out!
Right after his orders were cascaded down the line, he received an immediate response.
Zayn had changed into his suit and was about to check on Carla and the children when Jombo called. "Are you behind the attacks on Cloud Group?"
"I didn't expect you to call ahead of her."
Zayn was disappointed when he realized it was Jombo instead of Solara.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you doing this on such a happy occasion?" Jombo was outraged. "Are you looking for trouble just because everything is going great?"
