Report
My fiance, Henry Gordon, was two hours late to our vows on our wedding day. Just as he was catching his breath and about to say ‘I do’, he received a call from his secretary, Yvonne Luther. After hanging up, he looked at me apologetically. “Honey, my useless team can’t handle the personnel appointment of the financial team on their own. They’re insisting that I head back! I’ll make it up to you with another wedding later on.” I told him that I understood though I felt disappointed, because he was at a critical stage in his career. However, the moment he left without hesitation, I tossed the ring on my finger into the venue’s flower bed and announced to everyone that the wedding was cancelled. I had to see for myself who would ask Henry, a mere minority shareholder, to make such a significant decision without consulting me, the chairperson. He did not know that just a few hours earlier, I had taken back the ‘gift’ I gave him and reclaimed my position as the company’s chairperson.

Back home, I carefully reviewed all my losses and reclaimed everything I had ever given Henry.When my team went to repossess the house I bought him, he cried hysterically, cursing me over and over as a ‘vicious woman’.However, I could not care less.After finishing all matters concerning Henry, I received a letter—the one my mother had written long ago, timed for delivery on this day.Reading her words, I could only sigh at how she had foreseen everything.When I ignored my parents’ objections and insisted on dating Henry, my mother predicted this ending. She had already known I would never get to marry him in the end.At the end of the letter was a photograph. It was my mother’s choice for a husband that she believed truly suited me.For a moment, I stared blankly at the picture.“What’s up? Am I really that good-looking in the photo?”I looked up, stunned.It was a face I had once longed for day and night.“You’re alive, Charlie!” I cried out, almost unable to believe my

Yvonne’s best friend no longer cared about their so-called friendship.Screaming, she charged toward Yvonne with the compensation slip in hand.“This is all your fault! You said it was fake! That’s why I smashed it!”Panicked, Yvonne shrank behind her mother.“I only said it looked fake. I never told you to smash it! That was your choice, so don’t blame me!”Those words instantly ignited her friend’s fury.Her friend lunged forward and yanked viciously at Yvonne’s couture wedding gown.“Then pay me back with this custom dress of yours!“I only smashed that bracelet to help you vent your anger!”Yvonne desperately clutched at her gown, but she was no match for the violent tugging.Within moments, the wedding gown ripped apart and fell from her body in shreds.Yvonne collapsed to the floor, screaming and curling into herself.“No! Things weren’t supposed to end up like this! This was supposed to be my grand wedding! Mine!”The crowd stared at Yvonne’s hysterical breakdown, g
The Failed Wedding Scam Chapter 5
The file contained what I had once considered my wedding gift to Henry—thirty percent of Figmi Group’s shares.A fortune most people could not dream of earning in several lifetimes.Back then, because I loved him, I ignored all opposition and decided to transfer every single share I owned to him, effective immediately, on our wedding day. It was meant to be a gesture of absolute sincerity.However, the moment those shares were in his hands, the gentleman I thought I knew disappeared. All that was left for me was a cold and scheming ex-fiance.I had been foolish. Fortunately, my father was not.What Henry did not know was that after hearing of my decision, my father quietly altered the contract’s effective date.“If you still want to give it to him after you’re married, then sign it after the wedding. There’s no harm in waiting.”That meant the transfer agreement still required my signature to take effect.I looked at Henry and sneered. There was no reason to sign it now or at a

The loud crash silenced the entire hall.Henry was the first to react, rushing up to the head of the security team.“Who are you people? What gives you the right to crash my wedding?”The security team ignored his shouting, which only further inflamed Henry’s anger. “Do you know who I am? I’m Henry Gordon!”Yvonne, clutching her expensive wedding dress, arrogantly looped her arm through Henry’s.“My husband is talking to you! Are you deaf? Don’t you know what happens to people who offend my husband?”The crowd quickly came to their senses and surrounded the incoming security team.“You have no idea who you’re messing with!”“How dare you ruin Henry’s wedding!”I quietly stepped out of the crowd and walked toward the security team.The team leader immediately draped a coat over me and respectfully waited for my orders.“Don’t just stand there. These people broke my bracelet,” I said, pointing at the fragments.The leader, Ben Walker, who was a trusted aide of mine and a form

I stood up, disheveled and humiliated.“Henry, I entrusted you with funds to plan our wedding, yet now you're using my money to marry Yvonne, and you think I’m the one who should apologize?”My words made the guests start gossiping among themselves again.“She said she was supposed to marry Henry today. Could that be true? She doesn’t look like she’s lying.”“This is all an act. What do you know? She even said she gave Henry the money for this wedding. Who would believe that? She’s just some lowly secretary. She’s clearly delusional!”At that moment, the girl closest to me gasped when she saw the bracelet on my wrist.“Oh my God! Isn’t that the jade bracelet that was auctioned off two years ago? It was worth a hundred million! It shocked the entire jewelry industry at the time!”Hearing this, Yvonne screamed and rushed over.“That’s just a fake! She’s been obsessed with vanity for ages and must’ve bought some cheap imitation.”Because of Yvonne’s words, people immediately gave

I could not help but laugh at how ridiculous that was.“You’ve got some nerve, Henry, calling me your secretary.”I turned around and looked at Yvonne’s mother.“How can you still not know what your son-in-law and daughter do for a living when they’re already getting married?”Before I even finished speaking, the entire room burst out laughing.“You still dare to question your boss?”“Henry is the CEO of a publicly-listed company with countless assets!”“Didn’t you know? This wedding hall is reserved for CEOs worth hundreds of millions of dollars. People like you can’t just walk in here!”Hundreds of millions of dollars? Countless assets?Hearing those words was like listening to the biggest joke in the world.Henry’s current success was the product of all the resources I had given him.I had ignored my parents’ objections and thrown myself into a relationship with him.Henry did not have the vision or experience to stand firm in the business world, so I secretly assisted h
