Objection Overruled: I Do Anyway Chapter 9
Three days after the wedding, Andre and I moved into our new home—an elegant penthouse overlooking the west of Elaris Grove, with sweeping views of the entire city.He filled the bathtub with rose petals and lit my favorite scented candles in the bedroom."Do you like it?" he asked gently.I nodded. "Thank you.""You don't need to thank me," he said, kissing my forehead. "You're my wife."That feeling of being truly cherished brought tears to my eyes.Later that night, I received an email from Emily. The subject line read, "I'm sorry.""Dear Laura, I know you may never forgive me, but I still need to apologize. After the wedding, Jack got drunk and kept saying your name. He said he was planning to propose this Christmas and had already bought the ring."He thought the two of you would last forever. He said he knows he made a mistake. That he truly, deeply regrets it..."I deleted the email and stepped out onto the balcony.Andre joined me with a glass of wine. "Are you thinki

After the ceremony, my godmother pulled me aside to touch up my makeup."Are you okay?" she asked gently.I looked at myself in the mirror and smiled. "I'm fine. I've never felt lighter."She sighed. "When Jack was escorted out, I saw Emily waiting for him outside..."I cut her off. "Danna, let the past stay in the past."Just then, Andre knocked and stepped into the room. "Are you ready? Everyone is waiting for our first dance."I straightened my dress, took his arm, and walked with him into the ballroom.A graceful waltz began to play as Andre pulled me close, steady and warm."Do you have any regrets?" he whispered near my ear.I leaned into him. "Not one."Cameras flashed around us. After all, this was Waller Street's most sought-after investor and his bride.But no one noticed my tears falling quietly onto his suit jacket.Andre gently wiped them away. "Don't let a man who never valued you ruin your most beautiful day."I nodded and forced a smile.Halfway through th

On the morning of the wedding, I woke up early.As the makeup artist worked meticulously to perfect my look, my phone wouldn't stop vibrating.It was Jack, using multiple numbers to send me message after message."Please, just let me see you one last time.""I know I messed up. Please give me a chance…""Laura, you can't marry someone else!""I'm begging you. I'm outside the church. Just give me five minutes…"I switched my phone to silent and focused on the reflection in the mirror.Andre had an entire set of Cartier wedding jewelry delivered.I clasped the million-dollar diamond necklace around my neck and, for a moment, thought back to the very first gift Jack had given me—a silver Tiffany key pendant. It was the same one now hanging from Emily's neck."You look stunning," Andre said from behind me.I turned to look at him. He looked sharp in his suit, and every move he made radiated the polished grace of a Waller Street elite."Thank you," I said softly.As the ceremon

The day before the wedding, Andre picked me up to try on dresses.Inside the most luxurious bridal boutique in Frosa, I stood before the mirror, staring at the woman reflected in it.Andre stood behind me, his gaze gentle as he looked at me. "This one looks perfect on you, Laura."It really was beautiful—more breathtaking than anything I had ever imagined, even in my most romantic dreams.Too bad the groom wasn't who I once thought he would be.As I stood there lost in thought, my phone buzzed.It was a message from Jack. "I'm outside the boutique. Can I see you one last time?"I turned to the window. Sure enough, he was there—suited up, polished, like he had just walked out of a courtroom.Andre noticed my unease and gently took my hand. "Do you want me to take care of it?"I shook my head. "No need. He'll be gone soon."Sure enough, Emily showed up five minutes later. She looped her arm through his, and they walked off together.Andre looked thoughtful. "Are you sure this

Right before I turned off my phone, Jack bombarded it with calls and messages.How long had it been since he last cared this much? Three years? Five? It could be longer.One message stood out. He had sent me a screenshot of my location on his phone.It hit me then. The location sharing that once felt like intimacy had become his way of tracking and controlling me.We used to be inseparable. We knew each other better than anyone else in the world. Sometimes, a single glance was all it took for him to understand me.Maybe it was that deep dependence that made him so sure I would never leave and be his forever.That was why he hurt me without a second thought, shamelessly fawning over another woman right in front of me. He forgot that I was also human. I had a heart that could bleed and break just the same.I stared down at the dozens of missed calls on my screen, then blocked his number.As I went to delete him from my social media, I noticed he had changed his profile picture.

Jack stared at me in disbelief. "We spent ten years filling that album. You said we would show it at our wedding. How could you just burn it? If you saw a cockroach, you could have waited for me, or at least messaged me. I would have handled it."I didn't even bother looking at him.The man standing in front of me wasn't the same one who once looked at me like I was his entire world."You've been so busy lately. I didn't want to bother you with something so trivial," I said.He stood beside me, staring at the smoldering ashes. His eyes were filled with regret.What a joke. He was the one who threw away our ten years for another woman, and now he was standing here trying to look heartbroken?I turned to leave, but he thought I was sulking and pulled me into his arms.The scent of her Chanel perfume hit me so hard. I couldn't stop sneezing.It was Emily's signature perfume.He didn't let go. Instead, he held me tighter, like he was trying to make up for something."Are you gett
