Wade didn't shy away from Alicia's questions. He said matter-of-factly, "She and I have known each other for almost 20 years."Those words could mean a lot of things.He and Janice had formed a strong, indestructible bond over that long span of time.Alicia's fists tightened. Her eyes hardened for a split second as she fixed her gaze on Wade.Still, Alicia was a smart woman. Instead of pressing him further, she tactfully changed the subject. "You have a point. It's alright. I understand, and I'm fine with it."She nodded with a considerate look. As always, Alicia showed her reliance on Wade while maintaining the proper distance between them.Wade looked at her. He could only pretend to be oblivious to certain things. He couldn't possibly reciprocate the feelings she had for him.As for Janice and him, they were destined to be together.…After leaving Alicia's workplace, Wade got into his car, a frown etched on his forehead.Janice had been upset lately. Wade knew she would n

After deciding on her next step, Janice struggled to sleep that night. Finding a reliable actor who could pull everything off smoothly wasn't an easy task, and the thought kept her awake.By the time she arrived at the office the next morning, she was drowsy and exhausted.Chad poked his head into her office as he passed by. "Did you stay up counting stars? I can see the shadows under your eyes from miles away."Janice leaned back in her chair and said listlessly, "Yeah, I was doing that with my other boyfriend."Chad raised his brows and clicked his tongue. "If Ari takes first place in the 'Most Loyal Lover' contest, then you're definitely coming in second. Stop bluffing."Janice clenched her teeth. His words felt belittling, but any retort she could muster would sound unconvincing. Everyone believed she was hopelessly in love with Wade.It was no surprise that Nicholas had refused to call off the wedding.Chad stepped inside, dropping the teasing tone. He noticed how downcast

Ariel could see that Janice was feeling unusually downcast. The carefree, cheerful woman now wore a grim expression.Yet, despite the heaviness in her demeanor, Janice's eyes still blazed with grit and tenacity. She wasn't ready to surrender to fate just yet."What are your plans?" Ariel asked softly.She worried Janice hadn't prepared enough. Ariel wanted to know the details so she could step in if problems arose.Janice shook her head and squeezed Ariel's hand. "It's alright. You shouldn't trouble yourself with a messy situation like this. I'll handle it."Today's wedding was deeply entangled with the Garner and Swanson families' businesses. Things could get complicated, and Janice risked offending more than a few people.Knowing Janice well, Ariel didn't press further. Still, her gaze fell on the wedding dress. She frowned. "Isn't the dress a bit loose?"Janice glanced down at her waist. The cut was clearly ill-fitting."They wanted to get the marriage over with as soon as p

The guests were all seated.Ariel glanced over her shoulder toward the door. It opened slowly, and Nicholas appeared, leading Janice down the aisle with her hand resting lightly on his arm.The guests noticed nothing amiss. Some even raised their phones to snap photos.Ariel pressed her lips into a thin line. Sadness welled up inside her as she took in Janice's beautiful face. She had endured similar situations before, and she knew all too well how agonizing this must be for Janice and how much scorn and scrutiny would follow her after today.Nicholas guided Janice to the podium, frowning slightly when he realized Wade was nowhere in sight.Janice gave his arm a gentle pat, signaling him to return to his seat. Nicholas thought little of it and complied.Now Janice stood alone on the stage, facing the curious, confused gazes of the guests filling the hall. Even the wedding host hesitated, unsure how to proceed. After all, the groom wasn't there.For a moment, the scene seemed utt

Janice hadn't expected to hear that voice at that moment. Her gaze had been fixed on the man she hired to play along with her act. He had just stood up and taken a step forward when suddenly, that familiar voice rang out. Her heart skipped a beat.She fought to keep her expression neutral, though shock and bewilderment surged inside her.Turning toward the sound, Janice met Chad's calm, steady eyes.One hand in his pocket, dressed in a sharp black suit, Chad drew every gaze in the room as he walked toward her. On stage, Janice looked fragile and alone, but his presence shifted the atmosphere instantly.Everything was happening so fast that most of the guests were still processing what Chad had said earlier. Ariel was the only exception. Her eyes widened in surprise, confusion flickering across her face. She had never realized Chad harbored feelings for Janice.Beside her, Jayson crossed his legs casually. He took Ariel's hand, rubbing it gently, utterly unshaken."Those two…
