Canceled at the Altar for the 100th Time Chapter 8
I turned around and saw Ivan. Honestly, I wasn't surprised that he'd found out where I was. What shocked me was that he'd actually come all the way here himself.The usually immaculate Ivan looked completely worn out. His perfectly styled hair was a mess, and his eyes were bloodshot from what looked like days of traveling without rest."What are you doing here?" I asked, my voice indifferent. "We're going back to get married!"He lunged toward me and reached for my wrist, but Colin immediately stepped in front of me, blocking his path.Ivan shot him a look. "You'd better stay out of this," he spat. "She's my wife!""Our marriage was fake," I said, stepping out from behind Colin. "You forged our marriage certificate yourself. Have you forgotten?"Ivan fell silent."That's why I came to bring you back," he said at last, his expression shifting. "Everything for the wedding ceremony is ready."I stared at him, then scoffed. "You want to have a wedding with me while you're l

The weekend came quickly, and I got up early that morning to get ready.Nancy stood beside me with a mischievous grin."Well, who is this gorgeous lady?" she said in a playful drawl. "Oh, wait. She's my friend!""Stop it."I turned and shot her a look. She pretended she'd been shot and collapsed dramatically onto the bed. "Goodness!" she cried. "You're so gorgeous, you literally knocked me out!"I was speechless. When Nancy realized I wasn't going to indulge her, she stopped fooling around and sat up straight."I'm not going to be there today, so you better behave," she said, her expression turning serious. "And don't start swooning over him like last time. You'll never hear the end of it if you embarrass yourself again.""Okay," I replied, exasperated. "I only froze up for a second last time. Do you really have to keep bringing it up?"I've explained it so many times. I'd just never met anyone like him before, so I didn't know how to react. I'm perfectly fine now. You ha

The plane glided through the clouds before making a smooth landing in Valenne.On the drive from the airport to the apartment Professor Sandler had arranged for us, the unfamiliar faces and people from all over the world were enough to make me forget everything that had been weighing on me back home.Professor Sandler was standing in the living room when we arrived, looking excited."You've all got three days off. Go out and explore the city. We'll start at the studio next Monday."My classmates cheered enthusiastically. Their enthusiasm was contagious, and I couldn't help but feel a thrill of my own.Nancy Jennings was in my year, and her work had inspired many of my paintings."Olivia, I've wanted to visit the Louvain in Valenne for ages. Let's go together tomorrow."The Louvain housed countless famous works of art and was practically a dream destination for art students. Just imagining seeing those masterpieces in person made my heart race. "Have you bought your ticket yet?

I didn't return that night. Ivan, on the other hand, didn't try to come after me. He was completely wrapped around Kaia's little finger. One day, they were off hiking together; the next, they were out doing interviews. They were so smitten with each other that they might as well have announced their marriage to the whole world.After all, they'd lost five years because of one reckless dare. It was only natural that they wanted to spend every possible moment together now.Meanwhile, Mom was relieved to see her daughter and the man she'd always approved of so happy together.But Kaia was still unhappy that, even though she and Ivan were already legally married, he still planned to go through with the wedding to me.One day, she tested the waters. "Ivan, I want a wedding too."Ivan had been indulging her every whim lately. The moment he heard that, he set his work aside and walked over to reassure her."Kaia, you've always been the only woman in my heart," he said gently. "T

For the sake of my studio's reputation and my own credibility, I had no choice but to ask the driver to turn back. But as soon as I arrived home, I overheard Mom talking to Kaia. "Kaia, you and Ivan got married before you left the country five years ago," she said. "Now that you're finally back, you should focus on building a life together. At least then I can finally give your father some peace of mind."My phone slipped from my hand and fell to the floor with a sharp clatter. The screen shattered. "No wonder," I thought. "So that's what this was."All this time, this was the truth. The front door opened, and the moment Mom, Kaia, and I locked eyes, everything became clear."Our wedding is still happening as planned," Ivan said, reaching for my hand. I stepped away from him. "So all along, you all knew I wasn't the other woman, yet you still let everyone believe I was," I ground out, staring at Mom—or perhaps I should call her Marie now."You always knew the truth abou

The next day, Kaia handed me a box. "Olivia, I'm sorry about what happened last night. Please accept this as an apology."Inside was a breathtakingly beautiful diamond bracelet. It sparkled under the light, and I could tell it was worth at least a few million dollars. "Ivan stayed up all night helping me pick it out," Kaia added, looking at me earnestly. "After everything we've been through, can't you just let this go?"I put the bracelet back into the box. "Did you pay for this yourself?"Kaia hesitated. "I just got back. I haven't even held my first exhibition yet, so I don't have any income.""So Ivan bought it.""Yes.""Then why are you presenting it as an apology from you?"Ivan finally lost his patience."Olivia, that's enough," he said, his expression darkening. "You know what Kaia and I are to each other. My money is practically hers."As I stared at his stone-cold expression, I remembered what happened before we decided to marry. He'd handed me a prenuptial agreem
