Chapter 2

작가: Serious Snow
Brandon suddenly opened the door at the same moment.

He smashed a wine glass onto the floor. The glass shards cut my cheek, and blood immediately oozed out.

“Aspen, you’re finally going to marry me. Aren’t you happy now?” he glared at me as he said coldly.

“Don’t worry, even if we get married, I will not touch you. That seven-year relationship was nothing but a joke!”

My knuckles turned white.

I slowly removed the glass shards from my face.

“Alright, as you wish.”

I had no words to say anymore. It was useless trying to convince him. He would not believe me, and he would not look into it either.

The next day, I sat by myself in the car and wanted to leave.

“Ms. Anderson, are you really not going to wait for Mr. Fuller? Aren’t you going to view wedding dresses together?”

“No, thanks.”

After I said that, I stepped on the gas and went to the bridal shop.

Ten minutes later, the car stopped. When I was about to open the door, the shopkeeper stopped me politely.

“Ms. Anderson, I’m sorry. Our shop is closed for a private event today. Please come another day.”

I was stunned. A private event?

The next second, I saw a familiar figure.

In the bridal shop, Brandon was holding Poppy Taylor’s foot as he carefully planted a kiss on it.

“Poppy, I won’t marry her. I only love you, do you know that?”

“Who would like someone who killed their older sister?” Poppy said sarcastically. However, she suddenly caught my gaze.

“Brandon, look who’s here.”

After she said that, Brandon finally looked up and glared at me.

“You’re here to accompany me in trying out wedding dresses. Are you really going to let her in?”

My fingernails dug into my palm. I was about to turn around and leave.

The shopkeeper suddenly grabbed my hand. “Ms. Anderson, Mr. Fuller says you may enter.”

I did not hesitate and went in directly.

After all, I was here to retrieve my wedding dress. Even though I had switched the groom, I still wanted a beautiful wedding dress.

However, I had just entered when I saw Poppy cutting up a luxurious wedding dress with a pair of scissors. “How dare you display such an ugly wedding dress!”

    “Brandon, I’ve already moved on from the past. I don’t need your explanation, and I don’t need your apology. I just wish for you to not disturb me again!” I said firmly and coldly, like how he said to me. All of a sudden, tears welled up in Brandon’s eyes. “I’m sorry… Sorry, Aspen. I’ve misunderstood you. I was wrong. Please, just kill me.” He ignored everyone’s gaze and fell onto his knees so hard that they started to bleed. Then, he begged for my forgiveness. Everyone was looking at me, but I did not stop him. I had given my all to him during our seven-year relationship. When his business had issues, I ignored my period pain and drank wine to entertain his business partners to get him some deals. When he was hospitalized, I did not sleep for three days to take care of him. Even when he wanted to break up with me and forced me to abort our unborn child, I had remembered every single detail. Why would he be deserving of my forgiveness over a fake apology? “Brandon

    No!He refused to believe these! He still believed that I was the one who killed Holly. It was pouring. Brandon ran in the rain. “Mr. Fuller, where are you going?”His assistant chased behind him. “You have gastritis. You can’t be in the rain. You’ll be sick! Come back. I brought an umbrella for you!”However, Brandon did not turn around. The rain was cooling the irritation in him. In the security control room, Brandon roared at the workers. “I want the footage of that fire now!”Ten minutes later, Brandon stared intently at the surveillance footage. When he saw that girl dressed in white in the video, he dug his fingernails into his palm. A sense of hopelessness rose in him. It was… Poppy!He had mistaken the killer for the past two years! “Ah!”Brandon roared with bloodshot eyes. “Drag Poppy to my basement right now! Without my permission, no one can let her out!” “Alright!”Then, the assistant said hesitantly, “But Mr. Fuller, Ms. Taylor is pregnant. I

    When we went out, Brandon suddenly appeared out of nowhere!“Aspen, aren’t you going to explain yourself to me?” Brandon glared intently at me. I did not answer. Then, I took out a photo of him and Poppy getting married and threw it at him. “I didn’t even ask you to explain yourself to me about you and Poppy.” I sneered. “Brandon, why are you so stubborn?” The photo left a cut on Brandon’s face, but he did not feel the pain. He grabbed that photo forcefully, as if he was about to press that photo into his chest. What was wrong with him?He stared at us while we drove away in our car. “Why does my heart… feel this weird? You’re the one who killed Holly.”At midnight, all the lights were on at the Fuller family’s mansion. “How dare you come back? Come over and admit your mistake!” Brandon’s grandfather, Peter Fuller, grabbed his walking stick and said angrily. The bodyguards immediately grabbed Brandon’s shoulders. “Let me go! I’m not going to beg for your forgivenes

    “We have an arranged marriage, Aspen. Didn’t I inform you that tomorrow’s our wedding?”Brandon’s eyes were filled with rage. The next second, Samuel kicked Brandon in his abdomen. Samuel frowned and snatched me away from Brandon. “Brandon, I didn’t expect you to be a wife-snatcher! Aspen has already married me, don’t you know that?”Brandon felt his heart go cold. He stared at me, and his lips trembled. “Say that again. Aspen, why did you marry him?”I laughed from the irony. “You promised to marry me for 99 times over these past few months, but you have escaped every single one of them.“The first time, you abandoned me at the beach in my wedding dress for two days without caring about me. “The second time, you switched places with a homeless man. Everyone was throwing their wine at me as they laughed at me.“The third time, someone cut my wedding dress and shared revealing photos of me all over the internet!”I listed out all the times I was stood up and humiliated

    Brandon stood before the French windows as his face fell. He frowned. “Who’s it?”It was the day of the wedding the next day. Poppy was wearing a delicate wedding dress as she walked toward Brandon. Everyone was clapping and praising the couple. “They’re a match-made in heaven! I heard that they have to keep this from Aspen! What a joke. She didn’t even know her fiance was getting married!” “That’s right! If it’s not an arranged marriage, who would marry someone who killed their older sister?” Everyone was gossiping, but a few of my past friends were clenching their fists. “Aspen is not like that!”“She’s explained the incident so many times! Why does no one believe her?”Too bad, their words were drowned in the sea of cheers. “Are you willing to take Poppy as your wife, Brandon?”The priest smiled and asked. Brandon’s knuckles were white. He was just about to say yes when suddenly someone called him. His forehead throbbed as he answered the call with shaking hand

    The next day, Brandon and Poppy went to the city hall to get married. Poppy leaned her head against Brandon’s chest and said sweetly, “That’s great! Brandon, we’ll be a legal couple! We’ll be together forever, right?”“Of course.”Brandon was expressionless. However, he still felt a little troubled. A name kept appearing in his head. He then heard a familiar voice. “Happy marriage to you!” “Thank you!”When Brandon heard that, he immediately turned around and stared intently at that familiar figure. However, he could not see her face, because she was in someone else’s embrace! A suffocating and frantic feeling arose in Brandon’s heart. “Brandon, what are you looking at?” Poppy was a little anxious. That moment, Brandon’s expression sank.He did not speak a word for a long time. “I’m fine.”After they got married, Brandon excused himself by quoting work. “Wait for me at home.” In his office located on the top floor of the tallest building in the city, Brandon’s
