Chapter 614: Chapter 612: Poaching

That night, Andrew didn’t come back, but he sent Ming Wan a text, saying she didn’t need to wait for him, and a car would pick her up to go directly to the wedding venue the next day.

Ming Wan, annoyed, called to question Andrew, but he didn’t answer, and his phone was still off. Ming Wan lost all hope and considered texting Andrew that she wouldn’t attend his wedding, only to be stopped by Wan Chu’er.

Wan Chu’er said, "Andrew intentionally trapped you in this castle, probably because of your father’s and brother’s status. Even his sister Sara is eying you covetously.

If you tell him you won’t attend the wedding, he’ll only get more cautious and keep a tighter watch on you. If we want to leave tomorrow, it will be difficult, even impossible. It’s better to leave quietly.

Once we’re safe and back in Beijing, then you can call him or text him however you like to express your displeasure, and you can even have your father and brother stand up for you."

Ming Wan thought about it and realized Wan Chu’er made sense. She had to suppress her anger, realizing her silent departure would be her greatest expression of dissatisfaction with Andrew.

That night, no one bothered them. Even the butler Jacob didn’t inquire why Ming Wan didn’t return to her room, not even bothering with formalities, making Ming Wan feel even colder.

Yeah, how could a high-ranking butler care for his master’s mistress!

The next morning, Ming Wan and Wan Chu’er went to the dining room for breakfast as usual, with Sara already seated there.

Upon seeing Ming Wan and Wan Chu’er enter, Sara scrutinized Ming Wan, found nothing unusual, then smiled and asked, "Miss Ming Wan, did you sleep well last night?"

"No!"

Ming Wan replied flatly, leaving Sara momentarily stunned, but Sara quickly laughed, even her eyes smiling.

"Are you not used to staying here? If you’re willing, I can take you for a drive, it’ll surely lift your spirits."

"Miss Ming Wan, would you like iced milk or warm milk?" Butler Jacob suddenly appeared to ask Ming Wan an unnecessary question, obviously trying to interrupt Sara, as Andrew had specifically instructed Jacob to give Ming Wan and Wan Chu’er warm milk from day one, with both present at the time.

Ming Wan gave Jacob a cold look, "Warm."

"Alright, Miss Ming Wan." Jacob signaled to a servant nearby, who left the dining room.

Jacob continued, "Miss Ming Wan, Andrew called this morning to send his regards, saying at ten o’clock he’ll have you go to the wedding manor to make a toast. I’ll arrange a car to take you there."

Hearing Andrew’s name, Ming Wan was still unsettled. After holding back, she asked, "Why doesn’t he just call me directly and has to relay through you?"

Jacob paused and said, "It was too early then, young master Andrew didn’t want to disturb your sleep."

Lies! Complete nonsense!

Ming Wan gritted her teeth tightly, feeling she couldn’t stomach breakfast and wanting to escape immediately.

Next to her, Wan Chu’er noticed her impulse to stand up and leave, and discreetly placed a hand on hers, speaking in Chinese:

"You didn’t eat well yesterday, and there are things to do today. How can you have strength without eating? If something happens, you definitely won’t have the energy."

She subtly reminded Ming Wan that they were to leave today, to avoid being monitored by Andrew’s people, possibly even avoiding Sara’s pursuit. Ming Wan understood, took a deep breath, and drank a glass of water from the table.

Sara asked with a smile, "What are you two saying? Is it your country’s language? It sounds nice. I wanted to learn once, but it’s really too hard."

Ming Wan was too lazy to play along, and Wan Chu’er smiled, "Yes, they say Chinese is the hardest language to learn in the world. But once you learn it, you’ll find it wonderfully expressive. By the way, Miss Sara, will you join us at Andrew’s wedding later?" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"Of course," Sara replied.

Sara tried to get closer to Ming Wan again, but Ming Wan wasn’t interested, and Wan Chu’er didn’t care to listen to her annoying and insincere words. They hummed and nodded a few times, making Sara feel embarrassed, finally bringing silence to the dining table.

After breakfast, Ming Wan and Wan Chu’er declined Sara’s invitation to walk and went straight back to their room.

Wan Chu’er packed a luggage bag, putting in the essentials for both of them. They planned to take the luggage when they left for the wedding venue and not return here.

"It’s a pity for that little blue flower. It’s probably on Andrew."

Wan Chu’er sighed regretfully. She had hoped to listen to the real Andrew, but who knew he went to the city with the blue flower and never returned. What a mistake!

That thing was requested by Wan Chu’er from the Crown Prince, and to have lost it like this really hurt her.

Ming Wan was puzzled why Wan Chu’er reacted as if she had lost a treasure, as the blue flower didn’t look expensive. She said, "Sorry, I lost it. When we get back to Beijing, I’ll get you some nice brooches."

Wan Chu’er weakly waved her hand, feeling it was a complicated situation that couldn’t be explained.

At nine o’clock, a servant came knocking, saying they’d depart in half an hour.

Just before nine, Sara knocked twice, then pushed the door open, looking mysterious, and said, "Miss Ming Wan, I advise you not to attend Andrew’s wedding."

Ming Wan lightly asked, "Why, don’t you want me to appear at your brother’s wedding?"

Sara shook her head, "Andrew likes you, naturally he wants you there, but today’s bride is not to be messed with. I just heard Lillian caused you trouble yesterday. Lillian holds grudges, and her family pampers her. If she saw you today, it would not be good for you."

Ming Wan said, "You misunderstood. Andrew and I are just friends. I’m merely congratulating his wedding as a friend."

Hearing her words, Sara pouted, clearly disbelieving, and eagerly offered her advice:

"If you absolutely must go, why not take my car. Seeing that I brought you, Lillian will give me some face."

Ming Wan gazed piercingly at her, then suddenly pointed at Wan Chu’er, "What about her? She’s my friend, and we never separate."
