When Love Died Chapter 8
However, the peaceful atmosphere was shattered by the arrival of an uninvited guest.Alex burst into the wedding venue, carrying a kitchen knife.He looked completely deranged, his eyes bloodshot.Due to everything he had done, he had a criminal record. His once promising future had been completely destroyed.Waving the knife wildly, he glared at me and shouted furiously, "Mark! This is all your fault! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have ended up like this, and Carolyn wouldn't have abandoned me! Today, you're going to pay for it!"A wave of helplessness washed over me. His stupidity was almost unbelievable.He still did not understand that everything happening to him was the result of his own actions.Besides, it was my wedding day. After so many years working across various departments in the police force, the last thing we lacked at this venue was capable colleagues.Before Alex could finish shouting his threats, a sharp-eyed colleague rushed forward.With a swift grappl

"Don't remember me, old friend?"Hearing that familiar voice beside my ear, it finally clicked. She was Beth Tremont, a college classmate who had spent those years with Ezra and me."Sorry, I've got to take an urgent call. It's work stuff. I need to leave."Ezra made up an excuse and hurried off.Even a child could tell that he was trying to give the two of us some space.However, the truth was, I had not quite adjusted my mindset yet. I was not ready to open a new chapter in my life.My phone screen lit up with a message from Ezra.[Bro, it's time to move on.]"Will your wife be angry if you drink with me?" Beth asked."I'm already divorced," I replied."Really? So, I have a chance again? Why don't we go watch a movie later? It'll be my treat!"Back in college, Beth had always liked me. All my friends knew it.At the time, my mind had been completely focused on my studies, and I had not interacted with her much.We chatted and laughed as we walked out of the bar, only to

Carolyn's tears fell instantly as she rushed to the visitation window.If the glass had not been there, the two of them probably would have already been hugging and kissing."Don't be afraid, Alex. Mark will get you out soon! Just hold on a little longer!""Carolyn…I'm cold. I really want you to hold me…"The way they looked was like lovers torn apart by fate."What did he do?" I asked."Endangering public safety. He knew he had HIV but concealed it and had relations with multiple people," the officer answered.The moment Carolyn heard that, she became frantic and hurried forward."Wait! That's not how it is. Let me explain! Alex didn't know the disease was contagious. This isn't his fault!"I almost laughed. Carolyn really thought she could fool everyone."He also worked as a male escort in several nightclubs. The evidence is solid."As my colleague spoke, he handed us Alex's financial records from the past few years.During his four years in college, he constantly asked m

Early the next morning, I arrived at the entrance of the courthouse.The winter morning air was so cold that even breathing felt icy.To my surprise, Carolyn had arrived even earlier than I had. It looked like she had been waiting for a long time.The moment she saw me, she suddenly dropped to her knees."I'm sorry, Mark. I couldn't think of any other way to see you. Please don't divorce me."As she apologized, tears streamed down her face.Realizing that I had been tricked, anger instantly surged through me."Carolyn, what's the point of doing this?""I've really learned my lesson. Please forgive me just this once. Let's start over, okay?"Passersby on the street cast strange looks at me, whispering and pointing as if I were some heartless man abandoning his wife.How could they possibly know that I had poured my heart and soul into helping Carolyn and her so-called brother, spending money and effort just to make sure they lived well?Yet, what did I get in return?I was b

Inside the operating room, the atmosphere was so heavy it felt suffocating. The doctors surrounded Carolyn, questioning her carefully."Ma'am, may I ask if you and Mr. Palmer are husband and wife? Have you had any intimate relations with him recently?"Carolyn's face flushed crimson with shame. She could not say a single word."Please cooperate with us so we can determine a treatment plan as soon as possible," the doctor said.How could she possibly say it out loud?Seeing how hesitant and speechless she was, I let out a helpless sigh."She's Alex's sister," I said, revealing the truth on her behalf.The nurse looked at her with a strange expression. Carolyn lowered her head in embarrassment, wishing she could disappear into the ground."We need a family member to sign this. Please call a direct relative."Carolyn lifted her head and looked at me helplessly. The vulnerability in her eyes instantly reminded me of the first time I met her. Back then, she had been as pure as a bl

"You're a grown man and still can't take care of yourself? You stink. If you can't even wash yourself properly tonight, then go and stay in a hotel."If I had not been home… What would they have done? I did not even dare imagine it.I grabbed Carolyn as she got up to head toward the bathroom."Carolyn, have some shame. I'll help him.""Get lost! You're rough and careless. You're not fit to scrub Alex's back."With that, she shoved me aside. I was not prepared for that, so my forehead slammed against the corner of the coffee table. Blood started dripping down immediately.However, she did not even notice. She simply turned and walked into the bathroom.A long time passed before she came out again, her face flushed red."Look at you, being so petty. If Alex and I really had something going on, do you think I would've ever married you?"Looking at her like that, I found myself unable to say a single word."You're sleeping in the guest room tonight. Alex was frightened earlier, s
