Chapter 4

Autor: Dear Orange
Dad completely understood my feelings then, but he still had quite a shock.

"Are you alright, Brayden? I thought I really didn't like the Manning family's daughter. Maybe we should just forget about it," he tried, asking tentatively.

I had always been following Monique around like a shadow since I was young. A "betrothal" made as a joke actually made me pathetically believe that I was her destined fiance in the future.

I even thought that Monique would see how sincere I was toward her despite

  • Engagement Banquet Meltdown: Fiancée's Affair Revealed   Chapter 9

    Monique's legs trembled uncontrollably after hearing Cheryl's account. She never thought that this matter would come back to light after so many years.She might have murdered someone, but she never regretted it. The Waltons were rich and influential, and Teresa was nothing but a poor girl from the slums. Nobody would have even found out if she had killed her.Monique finally lost it and roared, "That's enough! What's the point of you framing me for such heinous crimes, Cheryl Manning? What is it that you want?"Cheryl glanced at Monique, who'd fallen to the ground, and laughed at her mockingly."Honestly, I initially just wanted to help Brayden, but now, I want the truth to be brought to light. I'm going to make you pay for your sins!"Then, she waved her phone in her hands."The people in the poor village were too afraid to stand up against you in the past, but that's fine. There will be someone advocating for them in their place now."Comments continued appearing on the scree

  • Engagement Banquet Meltdown: Fiancée's Affair Revealed   Chapter 8

    Even though Cheryl had told me that she would handle this controversy, I stubbornly thought of resolving it myself. I didn't want her to look down on me.Monique looked a lot more haggard and worse for wear when we met. There were dark circles under her eyes, and it looked like she hadn't had a proper night's rest for a long time.As soon as she saw me, her eyes sparkled defiantly and she raised her head high, speaking to me in a condescending tone."You've seen what happened online, Brayden Park. I know plenty more ways to skin you, and I can do it if I want to. You're not living a good, peaceful life now anyway, are you?"She then began scrutinizing me carefully and desperately, as if she was eager to see my embarrassment and humiliation after having been exposed by her.However, I just looked at her coldly."It must have been really tough for you to sacrifice so much for a man like Terry, Monique."She immediately responded like I'd just stepped on her tail. She snarled, "Shu

  • Engagement Banquet Meltdown: Fiancée's Affair Revealed   Chapter 7

    Cheryl's words had me stunned.All this while, Monique had always hidden behind me in the face of controversy, making me deal with the consequences of her own actions. I never thought that there would be a day when someone else would also offer to protect me like this.I smiled helplessly and said, "Cheryl, you know that I'm a man, right? I should be handling this by myself."I didn't think that she would hang up on me as soon as she heard that.I thought about it for a while and still couldn't understand the meaning behind it. Had I said something wrong and made her mad at me?However, about 20 minutes later, Cheryl knocked on my door. I opened the door for her in surprise, but she just patted me on the shoulders and said, "You'll have someone to rely on from today onward."I couldn't help smiling after hearing that. At the very least, I now knew why Mom and Dad liked her so much.Ever since we got engaged, she would come over to our house every few days. Sometimes she would lo

  • Engagement Banquet Meltdown: Fiancée's Affair Revealed   Chapter 6

    Monique held a hand to her face and stared at me in anger. Although her family situation was nothing less than chaotic, and could never compare to my family's wealth, they were still quite financially secure. Despite living amidst intrigue and backstabbing, she had still been living a pampered princess lifestyle since childhood.On top of that, after realizing my feelings for her, I had always been tolerant and forgiving of her wrongdoings. I already treated her gently, kindly, and magnanimously, but I wouldn't hesitate to get into a brawl with someone else for her sake.In other words, she'd never experienced anything like a slap to the face before.She glared at me and yelled, "Fine! Don't you ever dare to regret your decision now, Brayden Park!"With that, she left without even a backward glance.Only Cheryl and I were left at home. She was still holding on to my hand, and I didn't know what to do.Monique had always been very possessive, and during our relationship, I'd nev

  • Engagement Banquet Meltdown: Fiancée's Affair Revealed   Chapter 5

    Monique stared at my stern face and suddenly felt a little panicked. She thought that I would be just like how I was in the past, talking to her gently and forgiving her easily without bringing up the past.However, all I did was calmly break off the engagement instead.She knew exactly what it meant by me breaking the engagement off.Her dad, John Walton, was a very promiscuous man who had plenty of mistresses and illegitimate children everywhere. Even though he'd orally said that Monique was the sole heiress, there were plenty of other step-siblings who were eyeing her place.She never dared to take a single step toward them and only rose to her position within the family because of her engagement to me. That was the only reason she'd even been able to speak to her dad on the same level at all.But now, I'd broken it off with her, and she began berating me like a madwoman."Are you out of your head, Brayden Park? I'm telling you that you're going to regret this for the rest of

A "betrothal" made as a joke actually made me pathetically believe that I was her destined fiance in the future.I even thought that Monique would see how sincere I was toward her despite Terry's appearance as long as I treated her well, but I was just too naive for my own good.Monique had always had things go smoothly for her in whatever she did, and she had never endured any hardships in life before. The only thing that ever made her derail was Terry. And so, what could I, her fiance who always let her have things her way, even mean anything to her anyway?…The Manning family's reply was almost instantaneous.Even though the scandal from the engagement party had already
