Chapter 1

My smile froze the second my eyes landed on my fiancee, Janice Lloyd, and my best friend, Wayne Quayle, whose hands were intertwined. He pulled her close, barely able to contain his excitement."Colin, you really don't remember us? We were supposed to get married yesterday. But your accident delayed it all."A cold shiver ran from my fingertips to my chest. What had started as a spur-of-the-moment joke had turned into an unexpected surprise.I forced my lips into a stiff smile and managed to say, "I don't remember that you two were supposed to get married."A tiny spark of hope flickered in my chest—maybe they were messing with me too.But then Wayne held out his hand. The blue diamond on his ring caught the light, stabbing my eyes like a shard of ice.He grinned, his voice dripping with joy. "You lost your memory. Of course, you wouldn't remember. When I proposed to Jan, you were the one who handed me the ring."His words were part lie, part truth.I'd been the one who propose

"Sonia, come on, for the sake of our friendship, just look after Colin for a bit. I know I was wrong, but Wayne and I have been together for so long. He just wants a wedding.""Janice, once Colin regains his memory, he'll break up with you."Janice snapped over the line, "No way! Everyone knows Colin only loves me! The wedding with Wayne is just for show. Colin will understand! I love him too, and I will marry him."Sonia snorted derisively and hung up.I gripped the door handle tightly as a dull pain radiated through my chest, making my eyes sting.I couldn't believe it. The woman I'd loved with all my heart had been playing with my feelings like they meant nothing. All those vows she'd made, swearing that she only loved me, were lies.Sonia's voice came from the study again. "I've sent you the recording. Find out how the car accident happened. I want answers by this afternoon."I froze, still trying to process what I'd just heard, when the study door swung open.Sonia looked

Chapter 3

After Janice and I had gotten together, I couldn't wait to tell everyone.Sonia had shown up that rainy day, soaked and furious. She'd yelled at me, calling me blind and insisting that Janice wasn't right for me.Back then, I'd thought it was just because they were close friends and she felt I wasn't good enough for Janice. Only now did I understand it was because she was into me.Her cheeks were still flushed, and her gaze was stubborn like a fawn's as it locked onto me. The love she'd kept buried for so long suddenly overflowed in her eyes.I'd never seen Janice look at me that way before. My heart pounded wildly.I whispered her name. "Will you marry me?""W-what?" Sonia stammered.Before I could repeat myself, she yanked open a drawer with a trembling hand. It was empty, except for a ring box resting inside. I watched her fumble as she opened it and took out a pair of matching rings. Her fingers shook, but she still put the ring on my finger with determination."I heard

Janice's face went ghostly pale. After a long pause, she forced a small smile and tried to act casual."I get that you're upset about Sonia dumping you. But seriously, you don't have to crash the wedding. Come down before you make things awkward for Sonia and her groom."The host looked completely overwhelmed. He glanced at me, then at Janice, Sonia, and Wayne."Sir, maybe you should step down."I scoffed and pulled out the groom's boutonniere, pinning it on my chest. "Step down? Why should I? I'm here to marry my fiancee, Sonia Jarrett."Janice's face darkened even further the moment the words left my mouth.She spun toward Sonia, her tone icy. "Sonia, what's going on here?"Sonia grinned, holding up her dress as she stepped forward. "What do you mean? Isn't this a wedding? Colin and I have been together for five years, and we decided to get married today. I told you already, remember?"Janice's face twisted with anger, and she gritted her teeth. "You knew he was my boyfriend!

Chapter 5

Janice came barreling toward us, looking practically unhinged. "You're not leaving!"She shot Sonia a venomous glare. "Sonia, do you even remember we're supposed to be friends? I trusted you to watch Colin, and look what you did! He's my boyfriend! How could you marry him?"Don't you have any shame?"I gripped Sonia's hand, my voice low but firm. "Janice, what makes you think you can confront Sonia like this? Your newlywed husband is right behind you. Have you even thought about how he feels?"Wayne's face twisted with jealousy and anger. He grabbed for Janice's hand, saying, "Jan, he's lost his memory. He doesn't know any of this. Stop making a scene. Let's sort it out at home."Janice wrenched her hand free, her voice sharp and cutting. "That's exactly why I can't just let someone deceive him! And even though Colin lost his memory, have you lost yours too? Say something!"Wayne's face darkened even further. He clutched her hand, refusing to let go.As they struggled, I took So

Chapter 6

Janice's eyes stayed locked on mine, unblinking, as she snapped at Wayne, "I don't like Joravia. Why can't I go to Malvora?"Her stare made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.I tugged Sonia gently and said in a low, firm voice, "Go wherever you want. Just don't bother us. Sonia, let's get going."Sonia's smile widened, and she waved at them. "Bye! My husband and I are heading off first!"I caught every bit of the mischievousness in her voice.Once we were on the plane, I felt exasperated. "Why do you even bother with Janice and Wayne? Just seeing them annoys me."Sonia rested her head on my shoulder and pouted, muttering, "I couldn't just watch her treat you like that, so I wanted to get back at her a little. Still, it's weird running into them in an airport this big."Hearing that, I pulled out my phone.Back when I'd been head over heels for Janice, she'd been super clingy. To make her feel safe, I'd let her install a tracking app on my phone.I didn't really hav

I felt a pang of helplessness.Sonia could only smile wryly. "Let them tag along. Janice will get tired of it eventually."There was no getting rid of them, so we just had to let them be.We headed to the hotel to check in. Once the formalities were complete, the receptionist handed us a key card.Janice stared at it for a long while, then finally gritted her teeth and snapped, "Who allowed you to share a room with her?"I gave her a cool, measured look. "If I don't share a room with my wife, should I share one with you instead?"Wayne strolled over, patted my shoulder, and started his usual buddy act. "How about this, Colin? You share a room with me. That way, they can have a proper heart-to-heart."I looked at him and smirked. "No. You must really love Janice enough to do anything, Wayne. But I'm not like you. We're in a foreign country, and Sonia's timid. I can't leave her in anyone else's care."As soon as the words left my mouth, Janice's tears started falling, fast and un

Chapter 8

Wayne's eyes, glassy from the alcohol, locked on me without wavering. After a long silence, he let out a laugh. The next moment, his fist smashed into my face. The blow knocked the wind out of me, and before I had time to think, I found my own fist swinging at him.Wayne lunged again, grabbing me by the collar. "Who told you to show up at that wedding? Do you have any idea? Jan had already decided that after the ceremony, she'd make our marriage official!"If it weren't for you… If it weren't for you…"His breath came ragged, fury pouring off him in waves. "If it weren't for you, I'd already be Jan's husband! Colin Slater! Why didn't you die in that crash? God, I hate that you survived!"I met his glare and, to my own surprise, laughed. "Wayne, you've been suffering all these years, haven't you? You've had Janice for seven years, yet only I could stand by her side in the open. That's why you hate me. That's why you want me dead. It's the only way you can take my place. "But h

Chapter 9

I kept searching, whispering whatever I could into the phone to keep Janice from spiraling completely.After nearly half an hour, I finally spotted her. Then, my eyes swept farther, and there she was—Sonia, thrashing helplessly as the tide crept higher, threatening to drag her under.Waves of terror and hope crashed into me all at once. I snapped my gaze over to Wayne, my voice low and hard. "If you don't want Janice to rot in prison for the rest of her life, then stop her!"The last of his drunken haze had burned away. He saw how dire the situation was and nodded repeatedly.Janice spotted us from a distance, and regret flashed briefly across her face. "How did you get here so fast?"Neither of us answered. Wayne lunged at her while I dove straight into the water.The waves slammed against me, but I forced my way through until I reached Sonia. Her cheeks were streaked with tears. She was tied tightly to a reef, rendering her unable to move.I tore at the ropes as fast as I coul
