Chapter 30 Lexi was grateful beyond what she could express .
We quickly became inseparable best friends .
But I never knew when she and Robert ended up in the same bed or when he fell in love with her .
Robert gently tucked a strand of hair behind my ear , his voice softer than ever .
Adalyn , can we still go ahead with the wedding tomorrow as planned ? I cant wait to make you my wife , my Mrs.
Gu .
> The wedding I once dreamed of now felt like a nightmare .
I shook my head lightly .
No.
D Robert clearly hadnt expected me to refuse .
He let go of me , his tone unusually patient .
I know youre scared , but trust me , Ill handle everything .
No one will dare say a word about you .
Lexi will be your bridesmaid shell be there for you .
And this time , the officiant will be Spencer , the head of the most powerful family in Ubragard .
I promised you , didnt I ? Ill give you the grandest wedding .
The moment I heard my brothers name , my hands instinctively clenched around Roberts sleeve .
The McLeods had no idea I was in Stormhavn .
They certainly didnt know that Roberts fiancée was me .
Years ago , after refusing an arranged marriage with the most ideal young entrepreneur of Ubragrads elite , I fled from my familys home and never looked back .
A bitter ache rose in my chest .
I didnt dare imagine what kind of expression my brother would have if he saw me like this so helpless , so pathetic .
Suddenly , I felt a weight on my arm , followed by a crisp , anxious voice .
Adalyn , I was so worried about you ! From now on , Ill be your eyes Ill take care of you for the rest of your life … Robert cut her off , his voice carrying a barely noticeable trace of guilt .
Dont talk nonsense .
Adalyns blindness is only temporary .
Lexi caught on immediately .
She rested her head on my shoulder and spoke in that sweet , innocent voice of hers .
Oh , right ! That was my mistake .
Who knows ? Maybe by tomorrow , Adalyns vision will be back .
Then she can walk down the aisle in her beautiful wedding dress and become Mrs.
Bain .
Adalyn , Im so happy for you .
That soft , harmless act of hers had fooled me completely .
Once the assistant delivered the wedding dress , only Lexi and I were left in the hospital room .
Adalyn , I heard you designed this dress yourself ? Its gorgeous .
But … its a little too big for me .
) ] The sharp sound of fabric tearing cut through the silence of the room , harsh and jarring.§ I knew she had destroyed my wedding dress .
A blind woman like you has no use for something this beautiful .

That hospital gown suits you much better .
Rip !! A searing pain shot through my eye sockets , burning like fire .
The pain was so overwhelming that I couldnt even scream .
My hands trembled as I reached up , trying to wipe away the liquid from my eyes with my sleeve .
Lexi grabbed my wrist in a death grip , her voice laced with pure malice as she whispered in my ear , Adalyn , your blindness wasnt caused by the car accident at all .
I never expected that just a few casual words from me would make Robert go so far as to take your corneas and give them to me .
And guess what ? I didnt even need them .
I found them disgusting .
Even a dog wouldnt want them .
If you know whats good for you , youll walk away on your own .
If not … do you ever thought that another casual remark from me can make Robert take your life next ? } The acid burned my eyes , but it was nothing compared to the pain in my heart .
The sound of leather shoes echoed as someone approached .
] Lexi suddenly wiped the liquid from my face harshly , as if erasing evidence.
Then , she grabbed my hand and lifted it high .
Slap !! A sharp sting exploded across my palm .
Before I could react , a sudden force shoved me backward .
My head slammed into the wall , sending a wave of dizziness crashing over me as a relentless ringing filled my ears .
Adalyn ! Youve lost your sight , not your damn mind ! Why would you hit Lexi ? Shes currently recovering and weak ! } I couldnt see Roberts expression , but from the sheer fury in his voice , I knew he had completely lost control .
