LOGINAt our proposal, Ryan Parker, my fiance, has just pulled out the ring when his childhood friend, Lily Morgan, suddenly presses her hand to her chest and steps closer. "Ryan, the clasp on my bra came undone. I'm scared it's going to show. Can you fix it for me?" Without a second thought, Ryan slips the ring back into his pocket and reaches out to help her. I quietly step forward. "Ms. Morgan, I can help you instead." She shakes her head awkwardly. "No, it's okay. We barely know each other, so I'd feel a little embarrassed." Before I can say anything else, Ryan cuts in. "It's fine. I'm used to helping her with things like this. I'll do it." I fall silent. However, perhaps realizing how the situation looks, Ryan quickly adds, "Lily's always been shy around other people. If someone else touches her, she gets so nervous that she can barely breathe. It can get so bad that she might actually suffocate. So, don't make this harder than it needs to be, okay." I let out a quiet laugh, though there's nothing amusing about it. "So, you're the only one who's allowed to touch her, is that it?"
View MoreRyan suddenly dropped to his knees."Please, give me one more chance." However, it was too late. My heart had already let him go completely. I suddenly remembered the second proposal he'd arranged after the first one fell through. There had been no flowers, no surprise, and no romantic gestures. He had simply pulled a ring he'd bought from some shady place out of his pocket while we were sitting at the dinner table and handed it to me."Here. Put it on."Then, in the most perfunctory tone imaginable, he'd added, "Happy now?"Looking back, I realized my disappointments had probably been piling up for years, one on top of another. Lily's appearance had simply been the final straw.I shook my head firmly. "Ryan, maybe you never realized it, but being with you exhausted me. I was so tired that I almost forgot what happiness even felt like."I took a step back, putting some distance between us. "Please don't come looking for me anymore. We're done. Completely." He was alread
"Why do my wife and I need to tell you where we're going, Mr. Parker?"Ryan stared at me blankly, his eyes unfocused as though he could barely process what Julian had just said. Then, his gaze shifted to me."If you're his wife, then what am I? What does that make me?"Julian raised an eyebrow, completely unfazed. "A guy who got dumped right before his own wedding. How does that title feel?"Ryan frantically shook his head. "I'm not a scumbag! Lily seduced me! She's the shameless one. She threw herself at me!" The moment Lily heard that, she stormed forward and slapped him across the face.Whatever resentment and anger Ryan had been bottling up suddenly exploded, and the two of them immediately started fighting, trading blows as their argument turned into a full-blown brawl.I could only sigh and call the police. By the time they arrived, both Ryan and Lily had been injured badly enough to require hospitalization. An ambulance eventually took them to the hospital.…A month h
"Sienna, you need to believe me. What we have was never a marriage of convenience. I chose you because I love you, because I genuinely want you to be my wife. You're an incredible woman, and being able to marry you makes me the luckiest man alive."My eyes stung with tears, and I gave him a small nod. "Okay."He pulled me tightly into his arms, holding me as though he were afraid to let go. Then, he let out a quiet, nervous laugh."To be honest, I'm very… very nervous."He held me a little tighter before whispering, "But thank you for choosing to marry me."By the time Ryan arrived, all the guests had already left. Julian and I were getting ready to leave for our honeymoon when Ryan suddenly grabbed my wrist, his eyes red and bloodshot."Nothing's going on between Lily and me. I never intended to call off our wedding. The name on the invitations was a mistake. I was booking her plane ticket and accidentally entered her name instead!" He quickly motioned for Lily to come forward
"Look for yourself. You personally filled this out and sent it to the printer!" Ryan took the invitation with trembling hands. The name "Lily Morgan" leaped off the page, and his face went pale. He staggered back, staring at it in disbelief."Why didn't any of you tell me sooner?"Joshua looked at him, completely confused. "Why would we? None of us ever liked Sienna in the first place. Lily has always been the woman we thought you should marry."Before Ryan could respond, Lily's voice rang out. "Ryan!" She ran straight into his arms and clung to him, her voice trembling with emotion. "I've made up my mind. I'm not leaving. If we love each other, why can't we be together? Why should Sienna be allowed to tear us apart? If you feel guilty or sorry for her, we can make it up to her another way. Okay?"She looked up at him with tear-filled eyes, waiting hopefully for his answer. Around them, everyone burst into applause, cheering for the couple who had supposedly overcome every ob
