LOGINCillianI took a deep breath, then did it again and again.Today was my wedding day, and honestly, I hadn't expected Sandra to show up. She had come to my wedding with Sebastian.I'd invited her by sending an invitation through Erica, but I never thought she'd actually come. After all, that man usually stopped Sandra from getting too close to me.When I happened to glance in her direction, Sandra waved at me with a smile.I returned it with a rather stiff smile of my own.All right. Since this was my wedding day and she'd actually come, I didn't need to feel so tense anymore. Today was a good day.Marrying Orlin had been my decision, after all.Then, at last, the bride I'd been waiting for arrived.Incredible. I wasn't exaggerating when I said she was stunning. The moment I looked into her eyes, I found myself momentarily speechless. There was something different about her today.Eventually, I took her hand and guided her to stand beside me before whispering softly, “You must have fou
OrlinI honestly never expected Cillian to act like this.He had completely lost control of himself while beating Carter. It caught me off guard and left me panicking because it looked as though he was going to kill the man.“Besides, you don't love him anymore, do you?”His words were true, but I still stopped him before he could kill Carter. We were in a crowded place, and plenty of people were watching. Some of them even pulled out their phones to record what was happening.In the end, I managed to stop Cillian, ensuring that Carter received medical attention and was taken to the hospital.Now, I stared at Cillian.“You're completely insane, Cillian.”Inside the car, he gave me a sharp look.“Insane? He's the one who's crazy, constantly approaching you as if he has some right to do so.”My mouth fell open.It turned out I couldn't argue with him at all. I agreed with what he said about Carter being crazy.Finally, I let out a long sigh and looked at him more gently this time.“You'
CillianCould everything just disappear from my memory? Wouldn't that make things so much easier, so everything could finally work out for the better?My life had become a complete mess. I thought getting engaged to her would make everything all right, but I still couldn't forget Sandra. The woman I loved continued to haunt my memories.Even when I wasn't looking for any news about her, it seemed like the world wanted to make things worse for me. News about her would appear out of nowhere, leaving me with an unbearable ache in my heart.I mean, who would want to see news of the woman they love getting intimate with another man?But even so, when I saw the smile on her face, it seemed like she was truly happy.I hoped that man wouldn't hurt her again or make her life miserable anymore.I had already let her go twice. She deserved to be happy.And after accidentally seeing the news about Sandra, I couldn't sleep at all that night. In the end, I drank several bottles of alcohol and got m
OrlinMy head was practically spinning from dealing with everything. Both of our parents really wanted the two of us to get married as soon as possible.I thought that after I told them my date with that man had gone well, they would give us a break.But what a load of nonsense.There was no break at all. They kept pressuring us to get married immediately, and now we were getting married in two months.It made my head hurt even more. Dealing with Carter alone was already enough to give me a headache.I had no idea what that man wanted. It seemed like his ego was consuming him.None of this was making me excited.“What do you think of this wedding dress?” Mom asked excitedly.“It’s beautiful, Mom. Let’s go with that one. I like it.” I answered while scrolling through my phone.Suddenly, someone nudged my shoulder, and my phone nearly slipped from my hand. I looked at Mom, who was staring at me sternly.“Are you seriously listening to what I’m asking you?”Hearing her question, I felt e
CillianWe moved things along very quickly, deciding that the two of us were compatible. Yes, Orlin and I didn’t want to drag out something this annoying any longer than necessary.Everything went according to our agreement, and today, an important meeting was held between our two families. Inside the room, both families seemed incredibly excited as they discussed our upcoming wedding.Then I noticed Orlin checking her phone. Not long afterward, she excused herself, saying she had some work to take care of.Well, what did I care about what she did? As long as the arrangement we had agreed upon went smoothly and there were no problems, she was free to do whatever she wanted.It seemed I had spoken too soon. In the end, I followed her because she had been outside for too long. That was when I overheard her conversation.“I don’t care what you’re doing with that woman. Our relationship ended a month ago, so stop contacting me. You’re giving me a headache.”Her voice sounded firm, filled
CillianLooking at my reflection in the glass, I looked absolutely miserable.I truly looked terrible. My disheveled appearance was the result of everything that had happened, which had made it difficult for me to sleep properly.I wasn't lying when I said that I loved Cassandra. I had genuinely tried to make her my girlfriend.With every opportunity I had been given, I thought we could eventually end up together and become a couple. But the reality was that she had someone else—the man who had once hurt her.Their relationship had improved and they seemed inseparable. In the end, I gave up and moved to another city, but losing her still left me unable to find peace.One month passed painfully.Then two months passed, just as painfully.Not much changed even after half a year.“Cillian, you have to meet your date this time. If you don't, Mom will keep forcing you.”My mother said it with an annoyed expression. I didn't know how many times she had said those demanding words to me. Ten
CassandraAround me, it was quite noisy with the activities of the servants and Ellen, who was meticulously arranging the breakfast we were about to have.Today, I actually felt quite excited, but it was a bit different because Sebastian was sitting across from me to enjoy breakfast together.This
CassandraI’m sure I shouldn’t be feeling this way, this uneasy discomfort after finding out what that man did to entertain himself.He looked for a woman who resembled me. Anyone who saw her would immediately say that the woman was clearly trying to imitate me. I knew it had to be because Sebastia
SebastianOf course, I remembered what Alden had said, even though I could read the expression on that bastard’s face, hinting that I should let Cassandra go.I did it in my own way, just as he said, without forcing her. I wanted to make her feel better, and also… because I wanted her so much.I lo
Sebastian“How does it feel to see her get engaged?”I adjusted my sitting position after hearing Grandpa’s unpleasant question. My reason for coming here wasn’t to listen to that, to words meant to make me suffer and reflect. With my body feeling uncomfortable, I glanced back at him.He kept his e
