He Thought His Dead Bride Was Sulking Chapter 12
After the hearing concluded, Mom and Dad moved south, where there was a vast apple orchard that Mom had always wanted to visit ever since she was young. Before leaving, she carefully folded my clothes one by one, taking the unfinished coat she'd been sewing for me and the small picture frame from my bedside table. When Dad asked what they should do with everything else, Mom gently touched the wardrobe door and said, "Let's leave it for now. There's no need to rush to clear everything out."They rented a little house with a garden, where Dad took up gardening while Mom tried to learn photography.She always held her phone too close to the flowers, leaving them blurry in almost every picture.Whenever Dad laughed at her attempts, she'd simply hand him the phone and tell him to take the pictures himself.One day, Mom baked an apple pie, making sure the edges stayed soft just the way I'd always liked them.She cut it into three slices and arranged them on plates, but her hand suddenly pa

On the day of the Council's public hearing, Vera sat in the witness chair with a bare face and pale lips, keeping her head lowered throughout the proceedings.The recording, the messages from my phone, Martha's testimony, and the healer's medical records were presented one after another.The investigator turned to Vera and asked, "You saw that she wasn't responding, so why did you use her phone to send messages pretending to be her?"Vera claimed that she'd thought I was angry."Then why didn't you call the healer on her behalf? Why did you send a message canceling the ceremony instead?"She fell silent."You told Martha that the bride was still able to send messages. Did you know that wasn't true?"Tears fell onto the back of Vera's hand, and after a long silence, she finally nodded.A quiet gasp rippled through the courtroom.She suddenly looked up at Nolan and pleaded, "I really didn't know she would die. We've known each other since we were children. You know I'm just sharp-tongued

The third night after the funeral was the first time Nolan spent a night in our new home.He didn't sleep in the bed, instead sitting on the floor beside it with his back against the mattress, watching a video on his phone from the day we'd tried on our wedding clothes.In the video, I was lifting the hem of my dress and complaining that my shoes were rubbing against my feet. He crouched down and held my ankle."Then we'll get you another pair.""The wound will heal soon anyway.""Even after it heals, it still hurt."In the video, I smiled and reached up to run my fingers through his hair.Nolan dragged the progress bar back and played that part again. When he'd listened to it for the third time, he suddenly turned his phone facedown against the floor."Even after it heals, it still hurt."He repeated the words under his breath before raising a hand to cover his eyes.I sat on the other side of the bed, looking at our wedding portrait, which was still leaning against the wall because h

At my funeral, Nolan stood at the very back dressed in black, clutching the Mate Vows he'd never gotten the chance to recite.When the priest called my name, he finally raised his head."Eileen."There was no mention of Luna or anyone's future wife; Mom had insisted that they use only my name.She personally placed a white lisianthus on my chest, while Dad gently straightened the hem of my dress.When it was Nolan's turn to come forward, he approached slowly, folding and refolding the vows in his hands before finally deciding not to place them in my coffin. Instead, he left a piece of honey candy beside the flower."This one is clean."Mom turned away and covered her mouth.Nolan's hand hovered in the air as though he wanted to touch my face, but in the end, he drew it back and whispered, "Eileen, I came too late."I looked at him, remembering how many times he'd actually come back to me that day, putting my shoes back on, covering my shoulders with my shawl, placing candy in my palm,

On the night we waited for the examination results, Nolan sat alone in the Council corridor until morning.When daylight finally came, the healer emerged with the medical records, which detailed exactly where the metal shard had pierced my head and how deep the wound was.It was far more serious than the minor scrape Vera had claimed it to be.The injury had caused severe internal damage to my skull, and even my werewolf healing ability hadn't been enough to save me.The dragging that followed had also left fresh bruises on my wrists and shoulders, and the healer carefully documented every single injury.All the wounds they had casually dismissed were finally being examined and taken seriously, one by one.Nolan stared at the records before asking, "What if I'd called you the first time I went in to see her?"The healer didn't answer."Would she have had a chance?"Nolan nodded slowly, then, after a brief silence, asked another question. "How long was she in pain?"This time, the heale

My body was taken away for examination, with Mom and Dad accompanying it, while I remained at the temple, watching the Council investigators take control of the bridal suite.Nolan asked to see Vera's phone, but the investigator refused to hand it over, reminding him, "You're a party to this investigation, too."He froze for a moment before slowly withdrawing his hand.When the video was projected onto the screen, Vera suddenly burst into tears and begged them not to play it, but no one paid her any attention.In the footage, the vanity mirror reflected Vera's smiling face as well as the phone she was holding up."One last photo before you say goodbye to being single, future Luna. Give me a smile!"Her other hand was gripping the back of the chair, and just as I began to sit down, she yanked it away.The back of my head slammed into the corner of the vanity with a dull thud.Watching from outside the footage, Nolan's fingers suddenly curled into a tight fist. On the screen, he was sta
