This chapter is a delicate dance of suspicion, secret glances, and the quiet sorrow of a friend about to marry a man who doesn’t care enough to show up. Let’s dive right in.

Keira’s mind was still tangled in thoughts about Rebecca’s predicament. The weight of that mystery pressed on her, making her steps hesitant and her focus scattered. So when Frankie called out to her unexpectedly, she almost froze on the spot. Her body reacted before her brain could catch up—she stopped, ready to turn.
Lewis, ever alert, moved like lightning. He sidestepped, blocking Frankie’s line of sight in a swift, almost instinctive motion. But as soon as he did, he realized the irony: by shielding Keira so quickly, he had only drawn more attention to her. His eyes flicked toward Frankie, and sure enough, he saw suspicion flickering deep in the man’s gaze.
Keira felt the shift in the air. Without turning her head, she changed course and walked directly to the car. Lewis slid into the driver’s seat, started the engine, and drove past Frankie. As they left the Allen residence, Keira glanced back at the man standing there, his eyes still fixed on the fading vehicle.
“Do you think he noticed something?” she asked, her voice low with worry.
Lewis shrugged with practiced indifference. “He probably suspects. But without concrete evidence, he can’t accuse you of anything.”
Keira frowned, ready to argue. But Lewis anticipated her thoughts. “Don’t worry. Frankie is a smart man. Even if he’s discovered something, he won’t make a big scene about it.”
She nodded, though unease lingered.
They didn’t head back to the South residence. Instead, they drove to the Davis family. Today was a special day—Mary was trying on wedding dresses. As Mary’s best friend, Keira had promised to help her choose.
The car stopped in the parking lot, but Lewis remained seated. “You go ahead. I’ll wait here and handle some work.” He didn’t want to face the Davis family again. Keira understood, remembering the last time Shirley had stood before him, unable to recognize her own son. She nodded and got out.
Entering the Davis residence was easy—Mary, now the family’s most prized daughter, had opened all doors for her friend. But when Keira stepped into the banquet hall, she gasped. The vast room was filled with wedding dresses from dozens of high-end brands. Managers stood at their stations like soldiers awaiting orders. It was as if an entire bridal boutique had been transported into the Davis home.
Mary tugged at the corner of her mouth, a tired smile. “Uncle Ken and the Olsen family arranged all this. They said since I’m pregnant, I shouldn’t overexert myself. So they had the brands send over their top dresses…”
Keira couldn’t help but ask, “Isn’t this a bit too extravagant?”
Mary sighed softly. Extravagant? No—this was the power of a prestigious family. When she was young, before her grandfather’s death, such luxury was normal. But after the principal lineage split off, they lost that treatment. Her parents and grandmother, accustomed to privilege, couldn’t stand being cast aside. Now that she was marrying Ellis, they had climbed back to the top. And yet, Mary felt no joy—only a deep, aching helplessness.
Sensing her friend’s melancholy, Keira tried to lighten the mood. She pointed to a beautiful dress. “Bride-to-be, how about trying this one? Your neck is slender—it would suit you perfectly!”
But Mary shook her head. “No need. This one is fine.” She picked a dress almost at random, sent the other brand managers home, and then gestured to the sales clerk. “Please help my friend choose a bridesmaid dress.”
Keira was taken aback. “Mary, I’m married and have a child… Isn’t that inappropriate?”
“Aren’t you divorced?” Mary shot back. “Divorced means single. Of course it’s appropriate! Keira, we promised each other back in the day—we would be each other’s bridesmaids.”
Keira paused. The memory of that childhood vow washed over her. She nodded. “Okay.”
The clerk brought out the bridesmaid dresses. Keira chose a simple white gown—understated, elegant, careful not to steal the bride’s thunder. In less than ten minutes, they were done.
But just as they were about to leave, Mary’s parents rushed in, flustered. “Is that your final choice? Isn’t it too casual?”
Mary replied coolly, “Whatever I wear, it’ll look the same.”
Her mother wanted to argue, but her father quickly intervened. “Right, our daughter is so beautiful. All these dresses are from top brands—any one will look good.”
Then he turned to the door. “Mr. Ellis was supposed to come today to choose with you. Why isn’t he here yet?”
Keira looked sharply at Mary. Mary dropped her gaze. “He just sent me a message. He’s busy with something and won’t come. Just have the clerk match the clothes to his size and send them to the Olsen family.”
At those words, Mary’s parents exchanged a loaded glance. Her mother opened her mouth but said nothing.
Keira walked Mary back to her room. Once they were alone, she asked softly, “Mary, are you happy?”
Mary looked at her, and suddenly tears threatened to spill. Since her marriage to Ellis was decided, everyone had been busy preparing—but no one had asked if she was happy. Everyone thought she was reaching above her station by marrying him. Only Keira genuinely cared. And yet, Keira needed her to marry Ellis.
Seeing her friend’s distress, Keira’s voice hardened. “Mary, if Ellis can’t even come for such an important day, don’t marry him.”
Mary grabbed her hand. “What nonsense are you saying? I agreed to this marriage.”
Keira was about to respond when the door swung open. Mary’s mother entered, a forced smile on her face. “Mary, among the dresses the manager left, there’s one for Keira as a bridesmaid.”
Mary raised an eyebrow but said nothing. Her mother’s smile grew awkward. “Here’s the thing—even though your wedding to Mr. Ellis is being arranged hastily, the whole town is watching. The marriage between the Davis and Olsen families is a big event. The Olsens are planning to have Victoria serve as your bridesmaid…”
Mary nodded. “Sure. The bridesmaid group can have six people anyway. If she wants to come, let her.”
Her mother hesitated, then glanced at Keira. “Just now, your uncle Ken said he would let his daughter be one of your bridesmaids. And the Allen family will send someone too—your aunt’s daughter Rebecca. With this lineup, Keira’s status seems… somewhat insufficient.”
She looked uneasy, then turned directly to Keira. “Keira, you and Mary have been close friends since childhood. I know that. But regarding this matter… Mary is quite troubled…”
Keira’s eyebrows shot up. So that was it—Mary’s mother was asking her to gracefully bow out.

### Reader’s Impressions & Star Rating
This chapter cuts deep. It’s not just about dresses and bridesmaids—it’s about the silent battles we fight for those we love. Keira’s quick thinking and Lewis’s protective instincts show their growing bond. But the real heartbreak is Mary. She’s trapped in a gilded cage, surrounded by opulence but utterly alone. The scene where her mother dismisses Keira is painfully realistic—a stark reminder that in high society, even friendship has a price tag.
I’m giving this chapter ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.5 / 5 Stars. The emotional depth is strong, but the pacing feels a bit rushed at the end.
### Next Chapter Prediction
I predict that Keira will not back down easily. She’ll find a way to support Mary behind the scenes, perhaps even confronting Ellis about his neglect. Meanwhile, Frankie’s suspicion may lead him to dig deeper into Keira’s past—or into Rebecca’s disappearance. And what about Victoria’s involvement? Something tells me she’s not just a bridesmaid—she’s a pawn in a larger game.
