Penulis: Little Birdie
The moment the message was sent, the entire group exploded.

[Damn, took you long enough! You don't like Charlotte anymore, right?]

[Someone like her wasn't worth your time of day!]

[But… Would Stacy forgive you after you hurt her so badly?]

Joseph stared at the messages in the group chat, his fingers tapping the screen quickly.

[I've already fallen out of love for her in the first place, and all I had left was just an obsession. In the days I spent with her, Stacy was the only one I could think about, so that made me realize how I really felt.]

The group chat was quiet for a few seconds, before messages burst again.

[Yeah, good for you! Charlotte really wasn't worth it! Oh right, once her pictures got exposed to the public, her family's stocks plummeted, and they've already gone bankrupt! She's getting scolded and beaten by her parents every day, and they're even planning on leaving Balmora!]

Joseph frowned slightly, but not even a ripple appeared in his heart. He'd lost all in

    When Joseph woke up again, he found himself lying on a hospital bed. The sharp, pungent smell of antiseptic filled his nostrils, and the blaring white lights from above made his eyes hurt. He tried to move his body, and the resulting pain made him almost bite his tongue out, hissing as he took a breath in."You're awake." Jeanne's voice came from beside his hospital bed, tinged with coldness and resignation.Turning his head slightly, he saw his sister sitting there by the bed, her expression dark with fury. Her eyes were filled with anger and disappointment, and she spoke through gritted teeth, "How could I have a little brother like you? Did you know that you almost became a cripple?! Since you're awake now, don't even think about resting. Go back to Balmora immediately and never come back!"Joseph didn't pay any heed to her scolding, asking desperately, "Where's Stacy? Did she come to visit me?"Jeanne seemed to become even more enraged at his question, but before she could answe

    Jeanne stared at him coldly, her tone laced with disdain, "Impossible? Joseph, wake up! Stacy's already gotten over you, and the only one she loves now is Gareth. Even if you die right here, she won't even take another look at you."Joseph continued grabbing onto her hand, ignoring her words. His voice was tinged with desperation as he pleaded, "Please help me, Jeanne… I… I can't live without her…"Jeanne almost passed out from anger, shaking his hand away. "Snap out of it, Joseph! Either you go back to Balmora right now, or I tell Mom and Dad to drag you home!"Joseph continued staring at the entrance to the wedding venue, eyes filled with despair and pleading.Jeanne, trembling with fury, turned around and left, only to hear rushed footsteps coming from behind her. Looking back, she saw Joseph make a mad dash towards the parking lot of the wedding venue.Stacy and Gareth were just about to get in their car when Joseph dashed toward them, grabbing Stacy's hand like a lifeline and

    Joseph was dragged out of the wedding venue by security. The heavy doors slammed shut behind him with a loud bang, cutting off the lively merriment that was inside. However, standing outside the door, it was still as if he could hear everything that was happening.The emcee announcing the exchange of rings, the guests' laughter and teasing, and the sound of a soft kiss, as light as a feather, yet was enough to break his heart.It felt like an invisible hand had seized his heart in a crushing grip, the pain making it almost impossible to breathe. He lunged at the door, pounding on it with all his strength, his voice hoarse as he cried out, "Open the door! Please, open the door! Stacy, please don't marry him, I'm begging you! I'm begging you…"However, no one inside the venue seemed to hear him… Or perhaps, didn't want to hear him. The wedding continued, laughter, applause and cheers resounding the halls. Each blessing-filled cheer was like a stab to the heart, cold knives burying deep

    It was as if he'd been struck by a bolt of lightning.Joseph stood there, shivering from head to toe as if a basin of ice-cold water had been splashed onto him, but his eyes were locked onto Stacy, standing there on the stage.She was wearing a pristine wedding gown, smiling happily while standing next to another man. Jeanne was there too, standing right next to her in her bridesmaid's gown and beaming with joy, as if she was witnessing the most beautiful ceremony in the world.At that point, the truth was practically being thrown in his face. This was truly Stacy's wedding.His mind went blank, his ears ringing as his entire world crumbled around him.It was only until the announcer's voice rang in his ears again that he was shook violently back into reality. "Do you, Miss Rivers, take Mr. York as your lawfully wedded husband, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health? To always love, respect, and cherish him for as long as you live?"Stacy looked up at her future husba

    In Safeport, Stacy got up early and began getting ready. Her pure white wedding dress was custom-made, accentuating her slim waist and swan-like neckline.The moment she put it on and walked out, everyone in the room looked at her in awe."Oh my goodness, you're gorgeous!" Her friends gathered around her, marvelling at how beautiful she looked.Stacy smiled, her gaze landing on the mirror. In the mirror, her delicate features were like a painting, and her lips were curled slightly in happiness."The groom is here!" Somebody shouted.Stacy turned around, and Gareth walked in. He was wearing a perfectly fitted black suit, his tall and well-built figure exuding elegance.His gaze immediately went towards Stacy, his eyes filled with undisguised amazement."Isn't Stacy beautiful?" someone asked with a smile.Gareth didn't reply, only walking toward her and leaning down to press a soft kiss on her neck, his voice deep and gentle. "My girl is the most beautiful girl in the world."S
