Tina suddenly grabbed my hand. "Wanda, this diamond ring is huge!"Easton glanced at it and scoffed. "She probably bought it off some bargain app. Synthetic diamonds are dirt cheap these days."One of his friends, Tony Spencer, chimed in, grinning widely. "Exactly, Wanda, don't be so vain. If you're so desperate to get married and Easton's out of your league, I might as well do you a favor!"As he reached out with his yellowed teeth flashing, trying to touch my hand, I slapped him away hard. "Get lost!"His face twisted in anger. He spat at the floor and cursed. "You think you're so special? I was just being nice, but clearly, you don't deserve it! You really think I would want you?"Seeing this, Easton flared up. "Wanda, do you think I've been too soft with you? How dare you talk to my friend like that?"Watching his face flush with rage, I felt my heart turn colder.No matter what I gave to him, in his eyes, I would never matter more than Tina.

But if you don't get off this stage right now, I'll call security. This is our wedding, not a prank!"I tugged on Gavin's sleeve gently and said in a quiet voice, "Sorry, Gavin. It's my fault. I should've made things clearer to him earlier."Then, I looked Easton in the eye and said firmly, "Take a good look at the guests sitting down there. Do I look like I'm here to

After an exhausting day, I collapsed onto the bed. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Gavin loosening his tie. I suddenly sat up, eyes lowered, not daring to look him in the eye."I'm sorry, Gavin. Our wedding turned into a mess."After all, it was our special day, yet another man had caused such a scene. Anyone would feel a little bothered."If you regret it, I would totally understand. I won't blame you—"Before I could finish, he leaned in and kissed me, silencing me completely.When the deep kiss ended, I finally caught my breath and met his gaze, filled with affection."I've waited so long to finally have you," he said softly. "Don't even think about getting away now."I was stunned."What do you mean you waited so long?"We had met not long ago through a blind date. Gavin fell for me at first sight and proposed before we'd even seen each other more than a few times.My parents' friends had introduced us, and my parents were thrilled.I happened to be looking for a way
