LOGINI took Tiffany straight to the airport.Our honeymoon had only just begun, while our wedding was scheduled for six months later. Those six months would belong entirely to us. We'd enjoy our time together as husband and wife, leaving all the chaos and heartache behind.Tiffany and I set off on our journey. Thus, we lived our lives to the fullest for the next six months. We climbed mountains, strolled along the sea, and watched the golden sunlight illuminate snow-capped peaks at dawn.We traveled to countless places together, and our relationship only grew stronger with each passing day. I couldn't help but thank my lucky stars that I got to meet the right person, even if our meeting wasn't all sunshine and rainbows.When we returned from our honeymoon, Tiffany and I finally held the perfect wedding. This time, there were no interruptions.We toasted our guests together and celebrated the beginning of our new life, our hands intertwined the entire time.The next time I heard anythi
She directed every bit of the blame toward me. Before long, countless people started sharing their unwanted opinions. The insults came so fast that I could barely keep up with them. To my surprise, Tiffany stopped me when I was about to respond. When I saw how confident she looked, I decided not to interfere and left everything in her capable hands.As the online controversy gained momentum, Bianca and Eugene unexpectedly got married. It was a whirlwind marriage, something no one had seen coming.I stared blankly at the message Bianca had sent me. She said that she would leave with me if I showed up to stop the wedding.Both Tiffany and I had been invited. So, we attended the ceremony dressed to the nines for the occasion.Eugene looked like a cat who'd gotten the canary, while Bianca's eyes were shadowed with bruises she couldn't completely hide. My parents sat on the stage, smiling from ear to ear. They looked every bit like people celebrating a joyous occasion."Jace, just wa
Bianca's eyes turned red as she demanded, "Jace, you'd better explain yourself! How dare you change brides! How could you dump me like this? You're only doing this to make me angry, aren't you? "Well, congratulations! You've succeeded! Come back to me! We'll get married, and everything can go back to the way it was. Otherwise, we're over for good!"She screamed herself hoarse. Her emotions ran so high that her chest rose and fell with every ragged breath. She stared at me with eyes filled with disappointment and pain.I merely scoffed at her. "My apologies, Ms. Carrington, but we've long broken up. Besides, didn't you keep saying I was your loyal simp? That I was the clingy pest you couldn't shake off? Well, I'm not clinging to you anymore. I've moved on to find my own happiness. "That should be exactly what you wanted, shouldn't it?"For a brief moment, her expression froze before melting into hurt.I had rarely seen that look on her face despite the years we'd spent together.
Bianca's parents also called me several times, but I didn't answer.Instead, I forwarded them the video her friend had sent me that night after I blocked their daughter. Then, I explained that the wedding had been canceled. I made it clear that it was not postponed and informed them in no uncertain terms that a reconciliation between Bianca and me was very much off the table.To their credit, her parents were reasonable people. Once they understood the full story, they apologized to me. Her mother even told me that Bianca would regret this one day.Still, I no longer cared about her regrets or lack thereof.I swiftly and efficiently tied up every loose end, while my relationship with Tiffany only grew stronger. I supposed we were one of those couples who fell in love after getting married. After all, we were both willing to change for each other, and I believed that only two people who genuinely admired one another could turn old and gray together.…After I posted our weddin
I openly posted a photo of Tiffany and me on social media.Many commented on my post, but I didn't reply to every single one. Instead, I pinned my comment, "Taken and happily so."Bianca bombarded my phone with calls while Tiffany and I were busy celebrating the grand opening of her design studio. When I didn't answer, she simply kept dialing over and over again. It was as if she wouldn't give up even if the apocalypse was banging at the door.When I finally had the time to answer, she demanded, "What was that post on your social media supposed to mean?"Her blunt question almost made me laugh.The situation felt so familiar.I'd once questioned her in exactly the same way."There's no double meaning behind it," I replied calmly. "It's what it says on the tin."That had been her answer to me countless times before. Now, I was simply giving her a taste of her own medicine."Fine. I won't argue with you about the social media post." Her tone remained as commanding as ever. "Star
I'd long since given up on this family.I'd understood that my parents had chosen favorites the moment they secretly transferred my father's every house and storefront into Eugene's name behind my back. I knew right then that they would never change.So, I wasn't about to sacrifice my entire life for my half-brother. If it took ending a relationship to get myself out of that toxic waste of a pit, then I was going to do it.As for Bianca, she might not have contacted me, but she hadn't been idle either.She openly explained what had happened at the wedding on social media, claiming she'd only acted that way because she was worried about Eugene's condition. She said she'd considered it her responsibility as his future sister-in-law, and that was why she'd made those choices.I scoffed at the post. Then, I blocked and deleted her without another thought.…Now that Bianca was finally out of my life, I gradually found myself with far more free time. I was still swamped with work eve
