Regret

On the day my boyfriend and I moved into our new home, his ex-girlfriend gave us a mysterious gift. The moment I opened the front door, a swarm of hornets came flying out. I screamed in fright as I felt seven or eight stings from them. His ex, Erica Loft, jumped out from behind the door with a giggle. She shouted, "Surprise! "I went up the mountains to visit a master craftsman. I wanted to get you this specially brewed hornet wine, and I even brought back a hornet's nest for you to decorate your new house with! "Isn't this a great gift?" Erica made a face at us. She was gleeful at the messy predicament I was in. My boyfriend, Joe Fulham, clenched his teeth. He rushed forward to grab Erica by the wrist as he shouted angrily at her. "Are you crazy? Don't you know that hornets are venomous?! Is this really a surprise, or are you trying to hurt us?" I listened to another one of their huge arguments from behind the door, feeling like an outsider in my own relationship. As I felt the stinging pain in my arm, I knew this wedding was about to fall through.

"The internet said that hornet wine has some pretty miraculous benefits. I'm doing this for your future happiness in bed!"Erica Loft's exaggerated expression suggested that she wanted credit for the thoughtful gift."Look, I've even brought you the hornet's nest."You can make more for yourself if there isn't enough wine. Hahaha!"Erica's laugh was so shrill. It made my stinging pain feel like a bad joke."That's enough, you crazy woman!"Joe Fulham cursed at the situation silently. He dragged Erica into a room without giving me a second glance, and they argued inside once again.I was tired of listening to them argue, but they seemed to be enjoying it.Ten minutes later, Joe dragged Erica out to apologize to me. Her eyes were red."This is my fault, Simone. I shouldn't have told this crazy woman our new address. Please don't be mad. I've given her a good talking to."Apologize right now! Look at what you've done!"Joe glared at Erica, and his grip on her arm tightened. Eri

Joe looked at me in exasperation, as if questioning why I was making a joke that was wasting everyone's time.We had been in a relationship for three years. We had broken up before, but we somehow always made up and got back together.The last time we got into a fight and broke up was when Erica made a huge mess at our engagement party.Joe had been particularly furious then. He slapped Erica and gave her the cold shoulder."Leave, or you're going to regret what I'll do to you."Back then, Joe grabbed Erica by the wrist and dragged her out to the road.When he returned, he knelt before me in front of all our relatives and elders, and promised nothing like this would ever happen again.After that, Joe proved his loyalty to me by deleting Erica's contact and blocking her on all social media."I'm twenty-seven, Simone. All I want to do is spend the rest of my life with you. I don't want anybody else."As he declared his love for me, Joe took out a diamond ring from his pocket cal

Joe finally came home at eight that night.He did not look well. He sounded exhausted when he spoke to me."Simone, do you really want to cancel our wedding over something so minor?"I promise to cut all ties with Erica after we get married."The whole situation was torture to me right now. I did not want to wait until we got married.I shook my head and smiled bitterly. I relished in my revengeful tone as I spoke sarcastically, "Joe, are you sure we're able to spend the rest of our lives together?"His expression turned grim. He suddenly pulled me into his arms and kissed the back of my neck."Give me another chance, honey."I'm begging you!"I took a deep breath. I wanted to push him away so badly.However, his hands were like lead as they wrapped around my waist so tightly that I could hardly struggle.I closed my eyes and decided to give him one last chance.Joe finally kept his promise this time. He ignored Erica whenever she came over to cause trouble.He focused on

There was no time for me to change. I jumped into my car and sped crazily, running through at least three red lights.I did not care. If my mother did not get help during her asthma attack, she would die.Despite hurrying toward her, I was still too late.My mother was foaming at the mouth, lying on the ground motionless with her eyes rolled upward.I quickly called an ambulance to take her to the hospital.As I was trembling, I called Erica.Her voice sounded sickly sweet, like she had just had a great time in bed. She admitted to everything."That's right. I was the one who sent the photos and recording to your mother. That should teach you a lesson for trying to steal my man!""Erica, I won't let you get away with it if anything happens to my mother!"She laughed, not taking my threat seriously. She replied to me sarcastically, "Here's to wishing you a blessed wedding in advance, Simone."Why was she trying to make me so angry?Fine. I would not give in any longer.I tri

"Is Erica Loft here?"The police began investigating the case immediately after I filed a police report. They eventually determined that the suspect was at the wedding venue."We received a police report involving Ms. Loft in a case of intentional harm. We need her to assist with the investigation."Joe was shocked by this and quickly asked about the situation."Intentional harm? Who did she harm?"The police did not explain anything. They searched the wedding venue right away and caught Erica, who was about to sneak off.Everyone turned to look at Erica. No one expected her to be silently hiding among the guests."Let go of me! I did nothing. Why are you arresting me?"Erica struggled to escape. She had been shocked by the recording and was still reeling from it.She did not expect me to do something so drastic at such a crucial moment when I had been tolerating her for years.Erica tried her best to grab Joe's hand as he was her last hope. She cried as she begged for his he

Erica was charged with the intention to harm others by the police because of the strong evidence and injury assessment report I provided.She cried as she called Joe to plead with him to save her."I didn't expect that old woman to be so useless. It took only a few photos to break her. I just couldn't bear the thought of you leaving me, so I just wanted somewhere to vent…"Joe, I'm only twenty-six. I don't want to go to prison. I'm still young. Please save me!"I promise I won't do anything stupid ever again!"Joe had a bunch of unsolved problems, and he had to deal with the jewelry showcase in a few days. He was buried in work, and he could not help taking out his anger on Erica."I told you it was the last time I would indulge you! There's no longer anything between us now."You just had to do something like this, didn't you? Simone's mom raised her as a single mom. Her mother is the most important person in the world to her. Look at the predicament you've put me in!"She wan

Joe looked upset as he stared right at me.I thought he was about to defend Erica when he suddenly sighed and lowered his voice."It is what it is, and I respect your decision. But my parents would like to see you to talk things through."If it's possible, I hope we can go through with our wedding…""That's not necessary. I'll see you at the jewelry showcase launch event."Joe was stunned as he looked at me in disbelief. He did not understand me.It took two willing individuals for the affair to occur. Both of them deserved retribution.I admired the broken look on Joe's face before I left, satisfied.The event arrived very soon. I could not help but be impressed by the grandeur of the venue.Since the day I met Joe, I knew how obsessive he was with jewelry work. Every piece of his was precious to him.When he proposed to me, he customized a gorgeous, one-of-a-kind lily bulb ring for me.Joe loved that his painstaking designs carried profound meaning. Every collection of his

A few days later, my expression turned dark when unwelcomed guests came knocking on my door.Joe's parents had forcefully dragged Joe to my house. They made him kneel in front of me. His face was flushed.His father was an old friend of my father, which was why he did not want things to get ugly."Simone, I know that Joe was the one at fault for what happened at the wedding, and nothing we say can make up for it. He has to pay for what he did to you."Joe was forced to kneel. There were dark rings under his eyes, and he looked sad and pathetic."Admit your mistakes. You owe that to Simone!"Joe's father whipped him with a belt. The heavy sound of the whip rang in everyone's ears.Blood started to drench Joe's shirt. His mother got anxious, sobbing as she begged me to forgive him."Simone, you're a good girl, and we hope that both of you can talk it out. Joe only loves you. He just made a mistake because he wasn't thinking straight."Please give him another chance, Simone."I

Back at the hospital, the doctor was examining my mother's condition. I had to ask him about it."Doctor, is there really nothing you can do?"Please try anything to help my mom wake up!"The doctor scribbled on his board and sighed helplessly."When you found the patient, she had been lacking oxygen for too long, which caused her brain to be partially damaged. It all depends on her luck if she's able to wake up…"After the doctor left, my knees went weak, and I fell heavily onto a nearby chair. I deeply regretted not putting a stop to everything earlier.Another month passed. Just when I was losing all hope that my mother would wake up, I suddenly noticed her finger move.I was elated and quickly called the doctor over. Fortunately, that signaled the start of her improvement.The Fulhams visited my mother several times during this period.From my conversations with them, I found out Joe was involved in a serious accident that left his calf permanently wounded. He would never
