Although he was still handsome and charming, the whole black attire looked too somber. It lacked the joyous atmosphere that a groom should radiate.
She couldn’t help asking, “Jarrod, why aren’t you wearing the dark red suit I picked for you?”
Jarrod didn’t answer her question.
He remained silent with a stern expression on his face. Looking at him made Jamie’s heart inexplicably uneasy.
Jarrod was about to open his mouth to say something when Jamie suddenly said, “But it’s okay if you don’t want to wear it. You still look dashing in this suit, anyway.”
As she spoke, she reached out and held Jarrod’s arms, smiling brightly.
She said sweetly, “Let’s go outside to welcome our guests. It’s almost ten o’clock. They should be arriving soon.”

But Jarrod just stood there motionlessly with his hands in his pockets.
Jamie shook Jarrod’s arm gently. It was only then that he reacted.
He removed her hand and looked at her solemnly. “Jamie, there are no guests.”
Jamie looked at him in confusion. What did he mean by no guests?
For a moment, Jamie couldn’t understand what Jarrod meant. She grabbed his arm again and asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen that the guests couldn’t make it?”
She thought it didn’t make sense. Even if one or two guests couldn’t come, it wouldn’t be a problem. How could there be no guests at all?
Once again, Jarrod was silent for a while. Then he said, “Jamie, I’m sorry.”
Jamie was even more confused. She didn’t know what Jarrod was apologizing for, but it made her heart plummet.
She was so anxious that she clung to his arm tightly. She forced a smile and said, “Jarrod, it’s okay if there are no guests. We can proceed with the wedding as planned. After all, I’m marrying you, not the guests or anyone else.”
Although Jamie spoke calmly and confidently, the anxiety in her eyes betrayed her true feelings.

She felt deeply unsettled now. What was going on with Jarrod? Was he reluctant to marry her now?
Jamie did her best to force herself to dispel her unease. She didn’t dare to think about it again.
They were going to get married soon, so she shouldn’t entertain such negative thoughts.
Jarrod sighed deeply and said, “Jamie, there won’t be a wedding.” He sounded apologetic but firm. “I canceled it.”
After Jarrod left the Oasis Apartment early this morning, he went to his other apartment to rest.
However, he kept having nightmares.
He always dreamed of Nicole covered in blood. Her two eyes, devoid of pupils, were like two bloody holes, staring intensely at him.
