Getting Married Behind My Fiance’s Back

On the way back from the bridal shop, my dad gave me documents about over twenty candidates. These candidates ranged from mature men to youthful ones; all were heirs to their parents' billionaire corporations, and they were mine to choose from. My dad was angry and ranted, "I knew Jared wasn't good! 'I won't leave you sad or lonely.' Pssh! It's been ten years! You got engaged to him ten years ago! He still hasn't married you! Thank goodness you found out his true colors! Hmph! I'll find you someone better, don't worry!""Don't wait anymore; come back first. I'll set you up on a few blind dates first. My daughter can marry whoever she wants!" Everyone could tell that Jared did not love me. I was the only idiot blinded by our memories, foolishly believing I was the only one he loved. "I'm sure I'll like anyone you choose, Dad. I'll marry anyone as long as it's not him."Jared must have made his way beside me sometime during the call, and when he heard that, he frowned. "Who else

I ignored them and walked away. The helpers I called for had arrived, and they helped to carry my things to the car. After I arrived at my best friend’s place, I pulled out my phone to answer a few messages, only to see a notification on Instagram about Vincy’s new post. She posted a selfie of herself and Jared next to two large parcel boxes with the caption: [Souvenirs for everyone from the Arctic with my boss!]. The comments section was filled with cheers. "Boss? Or husband?" “Your husband is handsome! He's so good to you, oh my God!”“Kiss him! Kiss him!” Jared liked this comment, and Vincy replied with a ‘shy’ meme. Vincy’s number of followers skyrocketed, and she received many grateful messages in Jared’s villa’s maid group chat.“Thank you for thinking of us even when you were on vacation, Vincy!”“As expected of our millionaire CEO! So generous! Thanks, Vincy!"I remember creating this group chat when I started living with Jared so it would be easier for them t

“No! You’re crazy, Jared! We broke up. Go marry Vincy for all I care!”Jared frowned. “Who said I was marrying Vincy? I’m not marrying anyone but you.”I scoffed. “Sure. So why was she wearing my wedding gown, huh?”Jared pouted. “You weren’t answering my messages, and they needed your measurements for the gown. You two have a similar build, so I had her act as your mannequin. That’s it.”Then, he wrapped his hands around me and sighed. “You don’t even know how many nights I spent planning our wedding. Then you go around and just leave me in the dust.”He flexed the arms around me possessively. I did not doubt that if I told him the truth, he would only find a way to punish me. I forced myself to stay calm. “How did you find me?”Jared smiled. “I used some connections. I flew over the moment I knew. You should be glad your parents were the ones who picked you up from the airport, Jenny.” I did not know how to respond to that. Suddenly, my phone rang. Jared picked it up befo

To my surprise, this usually reserved and dignified man fought the bodyguards to stand before me. He reached out his hand. “Come with me, Jenny!” I quickly put on my wedding ring. “I’m married, Jared. Why can’t you leave me alone?”Jared looked devastated. “I know I haven’t been treating you right, I know! And I’m sorry! Please give me another chance, Jenny! Please...”“I’ll buy you any cake you want! I know you said you wanted to see the northern lights. I’ll take you there! Okay? Just come with me. I’ll do anything you want me to.”“You’re supposed to be my wife!”I felt surprisingly calm as I watched him beg and plead. Seeing as I did not react, Jayden stepped between us and blocked me from Jared’s view. Then, he turned to instruct the bodyguards to throw Jared out. Those bodyguards were much more professional than the manor’s security, and Jared was quickly dragged out of the venue. I watched everything happen with indifference. I had never seen him so pitiful before.
