Mag-log inAfter dating Asher Bennett for ten years, he finally proposes to me. He puts a blindfold on me, claiming that he wants to give me a surprise. But the moment I step into the room, I feel a bucket of cold water being splashed onto me. "When are you going to wake up from your fantasies, Claire Sutton? Why would I even marry you in the first place?" With trembling hands, I take off the blindfold, only to see Asher sitting on the couch while drinking some alcohol languidly. "See? I told you she'd come! Whoever's the loser of this bet, you'd better pay for the drinks!" Upon noticing my silence, Asher says mockingly, "Hey, Claire! You're not getting any younger, you know! So, you might as well just marry some random dude at this point to avoid growing old all by your lonesome!" The moment his words fall, his friends all laugh at me while looking at me in disdain. But when I follow Asher's instructions and marry another man, why is it that he regrets letting me go?

Let's go home."In the next second, Asher shoved her to the ground and roared, "If you're not feeling well, go find a doctor! Why are you coming to me? Am I a doctor?"Violet was startled by his outburst. Tears streamed down her face. "Asher, what's wrong with you?"Asher turned around, and his face was twisted with rage. "I'm telling you right now to get out of my sight! I never want to see you again!"Violet's eyes widened in disbelief. "What do you mean? Are you breaking up with me?"Asher laughed bitterly. "Breaking up? Were we even together? And you're talking about breaking up?"Only now did Violet realize she'd been dumped too. She stood up and grabbed his collar tightly."How dare you use me like this? After everything we did, you're saying this to me now? Are you even a man?"Asher rubbed h
"Claire!"Mom walked over with Dad, smiling brightly. The moment she saw Asher, her smile fell instantly. Her eyes held clear disapproval."Ash, you came to Claire's wedding too? How come I didn't see you earlier?"Asher couldn't very well admit he'd been restrained by security guards, so he lied. "I was in the bathroom, so I didn't get a chance to say hello."Mom waved dismissively and forced out a stiff smile. When she found out I was getting married, she was thrilled, especially when she learned the groom wasn't Asher. She couldn't have been happier.After all, she'd watched me pine after Asher for years. However, once she found out I'd been mistreated the whole time, she immediately told me to cut ties with him.Mom flipped through the guest book in her hand and said irritably, "You and Claire have known each other for so many years. Surely you have some regard for her. How could you not even give her a gift?"Hearing this, Asher's face went pale. He'd come here to watch me
The boat docked right beside the island. As we stepped off, the first thing I saw was posters. They were everywhere.They clearly read, "Welcome to the wedding of Claire Sutton and Derek Powell."The ground was covered with a red carpet, lined with handmade silk flowers that would never wilt. I wondered how long Derek had spent making them.I deliberately turned to look at Asher. His face was dark.I followed Derek upstairs to get my makeup done and change into my wedding dress. While doing my makeup, the makeup artist chatted with me."You know, your husband flew all the way overseas just to get me to do your makeup. I was on vacation, but he threw enough money at me to make me come."Men who think this much about their wives are rare."My face grew warm for some reason. I'd told him any makeup artist would be fine, but he'd hired the celebrity makeup artist I'd admired for years.So this was what real love looked like. You wanted to give them the very best of everything.Aft
"I've been holding back from exposing your little act, and you should be grateful for that!"Hearing this, my temper flared. "Asher! Even now, who's the one who's putting on an act? Which one of us is lying to themselves?"I told you, I really did get married!"Seeing me frown, Derek said with restrained anger, "Let her go! Can't you see she's not feeling well?"Asher laughed as if he'd heard the funniest joke. "Wow, so committed to the role. You two must have put a lot of effort into this performance."Derek didn't waste any more words on him. He forcefully pulled Asher's hand away."Ah!" Asher cried out in pain."Claire Sutton, I'm asking you one more time. Are you coming with me or not?"If you don't come with me, don't even think about coming back!"Before I could respond, Derek spoke first. "Why would my wife go home with you? She has me now. I'm her home."With that, he pulled our marriage certificate from his pocket and shoved it in Asher's face."Look closely! This i
