Chapter 6

ผู้เขียน: Rivvy
With those words, I walked away with Edward, leaving Jim and Rowena behind without a second glance. After buying the wedding dress I had picked out, I felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulders.

In the past, Rowena always showed up to taunt me whenever I got turned down.

Now, I was the one walking away from Jim.

Back at the bridal shop, Jim watched me vanish, feeling a void in his chest.

He couldn’t wrap his head around how things had changed.

‘Ella’s heart was always with me, even after all those rejections,’ he thought.

Jim had to admit—he’d been playing games, stringing me along.

Deep down, he had planned to say yes on my 100th confession.

He really did have feelings for me—I wasn’t just anyone.

For five years, even without the title of girlfriend, I’d been his strongest supporter.

When the Larson family acted all high and mighty, I was the one who stood up for him.

Jim had always felt a little insecure around me. He thought he wasn’t good enough, which was why he had let

    Seeing Rowena’s wild look, I stepped back, scared."You were the one who kept causing trouble. I let it go before, so why the rush now?"Jim sighed and stepped in front of me."Rowena, it's really my fault. I shouldn't have given you hope. Let's just get everything out in the open today."Ella is the only one I love. Don't come looking for me anymore."Rowena wouldn’t listen. She kept scratching and clawing at me.Jim quickly pulled her away, warning her sharply, "Remember who you are. Try to touch Ella again and you'll regret it."I slapped Rowena across the face. "That's enough. What gives you the right to hit me? You never had any business being around me."Jim looked like he wanted to say something but held back."Ella, I'm not with her anymore. Please don't be mad at me."I know you're part of the Shaw family now, but I'm willing to wait for you."I knew exactly what Jim was getting at and kept my voice calm."You always act so superior, but you're not even fit to carr

    Seeing Edward get a little jealous made me feel something special.Then, Edward and I got married.He looked at me so kindly.After the wedding, we went to our new room.I was about to go wash up when Edward gave me a big hug."Dear, I'm just so happy."I blushed. "Edward, let's slow down, we've got lots of time..."Before I could finish my sentence, Edward kissed me. The rest of my words got caught in my throat.A little while later, I playfully frowned at him."I said not so tight. Why are you hugging so hard?"Edward chuckled. "My dear, I was wrong, but you're just too gorgeous—I couldn’t resist."Then he opened up to me, confessing he had been watching over me all this time.The Shaw family’s business was massive and incredibly messy.And it wasn’t just internal problems—other relatives were trying to grab power too.“Back then, it felt like every day someone was out to get me. I got so fed up.“However, I couldn’t keep you safe, so I gave in to what they wanted and

    Five days later, at the grandest hotel in the capital. I stood there in my wedding dress, holding Edward’s hand, about to marry him.The Shaws and the Cunninghams were both powerful families, so the wedding was extravagant and luxurious, with everyone who mattered in attendance.My hand was in Edward’s, but my heart was pounding.He had been incredibly attentive lately, making real efforts to grow our relationship. Yet, I still had this nagging sense of unease.And I was right.Because in the middle of the ceremony, Jim burst in.He was holding a brand-new, sparkling diamond ring—and the delusional belief that he could still take me away.“Ella!” he shouted. “I’m here to take you with me. Stop being angry, okay? You’ve already won. I don’t want to fight anymore.”Edward’s mother, Anna Wood, was furious. “Who let this lunatic in? Get him out of here!”She had never liked the Larsons, and now she was looking at Jim like he was a stain on her son’s perfect day.Security star

    Edward was drop-dead gorgeous.I’d always been the type to fall for a handsome face. That was the only reason I’d put up with Jim for so long—he looked good.But Edward? He was in a whole different league."Hey there, fiancée," he greeted me with a smile, tapping my forehead lightly. "Weren’t we going to pick out a wedding dress?"I snapped out of it, grabbed his bags, and led him to the car.Edward chatted casually along the way, trying to make me feel comfortable. He wasn’t cold at all—totally different from what everyone said. In fact, he was kind of funny.We clicked instantly and even added each other on Messenger.His profile picture looked strangely familiar, but I brushed it off as a coincidence.At the bridal shop, I tried on dress after dress.Edward sat on the couch watching me, his eyes focused and calm, but there was something warm in his gaze."Which one’s your favorite?" I asked, cheeks warming.He stood up and gently brushed my hair behind my ear."I like whatever you w

    Whenever we fought before, he would give me the silent treatment.I was always the one to apologize first.However, this time, I told the butler not to let Jim in again.After I got rid of everything he had given me, I felt a little better.But then, he got into a car accident on his way home.Rowena called, her voice sharp with blame. "What did you say to Jim? He got distracted and crashed. This is all your fault!""You’re really holding a grudge over a few texts? How can you be so heartless?"I was stunned. I found out where Jim had been taken and started getting ready to go see him.He had left my place just before the accident. I needed to see him to ease my mind.Just as I was about to leave, my parents came home.They heard I wanted to go out and immediately stopped me."Edward Shaw, the eldest son of the Shaw family, is coming back tomorrow.
