Chapter 8

Author: Blanc Ball
Among the prospective husbands, the most shocked were Marcus and Dennis.

“Are you kidding, Nita?” Marcus asked. His expression was dark. “Is it because I gifted ‘The Ocean’s Tears’ to Risa and not you? Is that why you’re doing this? To spite me?”

Dennis looked displeased as well. “Nita, why did you choose Samuel? If you wanted to spite Marcus, you could have picked me. I don’t mind you using me!”

The besotted look on Dennis’s face made many in the crowd feel touched.

“Dennis really loves Amanita a lot. I heard he’s even thrown himself off a building for her!”

“Why doesn’t Amanita pick him? If a man loved me that much, I would marry him in a heartbeat!”

“All of Norchester knows how crazy in love Dennis is with Amanita. But Amanita’s never even looked at him.”

Everyone in the crowd thought this was unfair to Dennis.

They felt that it was a shame for Dennis to have contributed all his love for nothing and not win his love’s hand.

Hearing the pity that the crowd had for Denni

    “What are you doing, Marcus?” Samuel instantly became anxious after seeing Marcus force a kiss on Amanita. He rushed up to attack Marcus, but Dennis stopped him.Others may not understand, but Dennis was an orphan as well. He knew what Marcus would do next. This was Marcus’s only chance in his life to kiss the person he loved. When he was nearly out of breath, Marcus finally let go of Amanita. He pushed her away and said, “Nita, don’t be sad for me. Don’t cry for me either. I’m not worth it.”After saying this, he turned and jumped off the roof without hesitation. This flight needed no wings. “Marcus!” Amanita lunged forward, wanting to pull Marcus back, but she missed. She watched as Marcus plummeted with a smile on his face. Then, he hit the ground, looking completely broken.Risa used to be his whole world, but Risa had betrayed him. Amanita could have been his salvation, but he had betrayed her. These two betrayals had cut off all the tethers he had to the world.

    Although Marcus was threatening all their lives, Samuel and George still refused to let Amanita get near him. If Marcus was crazy enough to strap a bomb to himself, it was obvious that he was no longer thinking clearly. What if he decided to kill himself and Amanita?It was too dangerous!“But if he really detonates the bomb, I won’t be able to survive at this distance,” Amanita said. “And everyone else will die with me.“Dad, Sam, let me go talk to him. Marcus has done a lot of bad things, but he’s a man of his word. Since he promised that he won’t detonate the bomb if I go over there, he will keep his word.”Amanita insisted on going over, so Samuel and George could only let her. However, they insisted that she and Marcus had to be within their sightlines and could not stray far.“Sure,” Marcus agreed without hesitation. With that, Marcus brought Amanita to the rooftop of the hotel. The wind blew hard. Marcus stood on the edge of the rooftop and looked at Amanita dejecte

    A month later, Amanita and Samuel had a huge wedding. It was very well-attended, and many of Norchester’s bigwigs had come to celebrate with them. Samuel wanted to keep the event going for three days and three nights to let everyone in the world know that he had wedded the love of his life. Felix and four of the other ex-prospective husbands also came, but they did not go inside. They were afraid of upsetting Amanita and George if they saw them. Thus, they only left their gifts and went off. Their gifts were all very exclusive and expensive.This was all they could do for Amanita. They could only give her something expensive and then leave quietly, so that they would not disturb her. That morning at 10 a.m., the wedding officially began. Countless fireworks exploded into colorful words in the sky.[Congratulations on your wedding, Samuel and Amanita!]At this happy moment, Marcus showed up. In the short span of a month, Amanita almost failed to recognize Marcus when she

    The most disappointing thing in the world was realizing your true feeling too late.That kind of pain was so agonizing that it caused Marcus to clutch his chest. Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of blood. Everyone in the crowd was shocked. Amanita instinctively moved forward to support him. Then, she forced herself to stop. She had already given up on him, after all. From that moment onward, she ceased to care about what happened to Marcus. “Hahaha!” Marcus burst out laughing even as blood trickled down his chin. His skin was so pale it looked bloodless. “I really am the world’s greatest fool!”Then, Marcus turned around and left. He was still laughing as he departed.Risa had also been dragged out by the Wallace family’s staff. Only Dennis stayed behind.“Mr. Wallace, I’ve fulfilled the one request you’ve asked of me,” Dennis said. “I love Nita more than anything. I would sacrifice my life for her. It was only that I did not love her openly. I did so quietly, and that’s why

    Dennis was known as a smiling devil. Although he was always friendly, cheerful, and seemingly kind, he was a shrewd and cunning person. He could be ruthless. He could plot someone’s downfall with a grin on his face.He always spoke in half-truths. Even Marcus could not tell when he was lying. Perhaps it was because he was too good at lying himself that, when Risa took Dennis’s hand and told him that she would love him and that they could take on the world together, Dennis could tell at a glance that she was lying.He knew that Risa did not love him; she only wanted to use him. He would never be her one and only.Risa’s lies were useless on Dennis, because he could easily see through them.That was why he hated Risa. But since he was a smiling devil, he still presented himself to Risa with a smile even though he hated her.He never displayed his disgust. Instead, he used Risa to tie Marcus down. “Don’t be naive, Risa. You think Marcus loves you as a sister? You’re not his s

    A wave of tittering passed through the crowd of guests as they watched Felix leave. “Actually, Felix is a good person. He was only seduced by Risa.”“He’s able to see his mistakes and change his ways. That tells you a lot about his good character. Mr. Wallace could have been a bit more forgiving.”“There’s nothing to it. Mr. Wallace is putting his daughter first. If Felix had made any other mistake, Mr. Wallace might have forgiven him. But Felix hurt Amanita, which is a grave sin to Mr. Wallace. There’s no coming back from that.”As the guests talked among themselves, the remaining prospective husbands exchanged looks with each other. Then, they quickly all followed Felix’s lead and went up to George. “Mr. Wallace, I know I have no right to call you Dad anymore. But you will always be my father!”“I know that you will never forgive me, but I cannot forget that you raised me! I will repay you!”“I will also do as Felix said. From today onward, any company I start will be a subs
