Chapter 1

Elena let out a sharp scream and dove under the blanket before bursting into tears. Everyone around us froze, stunned by what I had just done."Are you out of your mind, Jasmine?" Miles snapped out of his shock and snatched the cameraman's camera with a hardened expression. "We're in public, and someone's filming here. How could you lift a young woman's skirt? You're unbelievable!" I shook the wedding shoe in my hand. "She tied the shoe to her waist and asked you guys to grab it. Wasn't she asking for someone to reach under? You couldn't do it, so I helped you. What's wrong with that?"His brows knitted together. "She was just messing around. Did you really have to go that far?"The groomsmen chimed in one after another."We're guys, and even we know how humiliating that was. You've really crossed a line, Jasmine.""Ellie loves to joke around. You're her best friend. How can you be this petty?"Elena's sobs only grew louder when they took her side. Miles shoved me toward th

Miles' tone carried a hint of mockery. "Drop the act. Even if he gives you the payment details, can you even afford it?""Jasmine, even if you've been selling Miles' gifts from time to time, it still wouldn't add up to a million dollars." I turned. Elena's face was tight with worry. "Please don't blow half your life savings just because you're upset!"Miles' friends looked at me with obvious disdain. "Did you know about that, Miles? You put so much thought into every gift you gave her, yet she actually had the nerve to sell them behind your back!"Miles' expression darkened further. "What do you take me for, Jasmine?"I shrugged. "I've never sold anything you gave me."He clearly didn't believe me. "Elena is your best friend. Why would she slander you out of the blue?"Elena was my best friend. We had known each other since we were kids. Then, I lived abroad with my parents for more than a decade. When I returned five years ago and reconnected with her, I realized I didn't re

Elena, who was standing beside us, took a deep breath, almost as if she had made a difficult decision. "Miles, let me take Jasmine's place and go through the wedding with you. She needs time to calm down. I can't bear to watch you and your family struggle like this."He took one long look at me, and his eyes were filled with disappointment. In the end, he turned to Elena and nodded. "Alright."Before he left, he spat out, "You should reflect on your actions and thank Elena."…He slammed the door shut, causing my ears to ring for several seconds. Silence settled back over the house. Even my phone stopped buzzing.I felt as though my heart had a gaping hollow. It was as if the day had strapped me into a roller coaster and hurled me down the steepest fall. In the span of a few hours, we went from standing at the edge of marriage to breaking up. However, those few hours allowed me to see their true colors.It was impossible not to grieve after losing my boyfriend, whom I've date

Chapter 4

My doorbell rang the day after Miles and Elena made their grand return to the country. Through the security camera, I saw Elena standing at my doorstep with a gift bag in her hand. A few of Miles' friends flanked her like bodyguards. Miles claimed he wanted to go toe-to-toe with me, yet he didn't even accompany Elena here. The partnership between Lawson Group and IS Global Group was bound to make national headlines, so he was probably swamped with work. I opened the door, and she immediately lifted the gift bag toward me as if she were presenting some kind of treasure. The bag was one I had commissioned months ago and looked especially jarring in her hands."They were worried about me, so they came with me to drop off this gift. I'm sure you wouldn't mind, right?" I sneered inwardly. I knew these men well. Ever since they met Elena through me, they fell for her act and treated her like she was made of gold.They were only here to keep an eye on me because they were afraid I m

Miles turned and stared at my secretary. "Are you sure you didn't mix her up with someone else, Ms. Patton? How could she possibly be your Deputy CEO? The letter of intent stated that the executive in charge of signing is a foreign Deputy CEO with an Aelish name!"Elena giggled into her hand and covered for me. "Jasmine's just too eager to prove herself, Miles. Being a corporate executive has always been her dream. She's just playing pretend."Then, she reached out and tried to pull me away. "Let's get off the stage first, Jasmine. Don't get in their way, okay?""The letter of intent is correct." Ignoring her, I calmly took out my passport and flipped it open to reveal my Aelish name. "I only use my Hanic name when I'm here. It's only natural that you weren't aware."Elena went from shocked to angry in seconds. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she choked out, "Jasmine! I'm your best friend. I can't believe you had such a high standing, and you hid it from me for so long! What did

Chapter 6

I walked around Miles, who was frozen in place, and angled my phone at the camera on stage. The images I had saved beforehand appeared on the giant display.Elena and Miles were having the time of their lives in Kalana. They had splashed around together in the pool, shared a plate of food, and watched the sunrise from an ocean-view suite."Mr. Lawson, can you stand by your statement that the bride you presented to the media is the same person who accompanied you on your honeymoon?"The reporters went wild. Flash after flash burst across the room, every camera locked on Miles. "Mr. Lawson, could you explain yourself? Is that true?""Why did you lie?"I tucked my phone away and motioned for my secretary to bring the documents over. "As stated in Clause 17, Lawson Group must compensate IS Global Group ten million dollars for breach of contract." Miles' gaze hardened as a film of sweat began to form at his temple. Ten million dollars wasn't much for Lawson Group, but the real dama

At some point, Elena had followed me out. She had that overly friendly smile, as if nothing had ever happened between us."Jasmine," she chirped, "you really played this close to the chest. Look how messy things are now. Since you don't want Miles anymore, why don't you let me have him?"I continued on my way. "Miles isn't worth fighting over.""He may not matter to you, but to me, he's a pretty good catch." She inched closer to me and asked tentatively, "Ms. Hansen, I helped you end that ill-matched marriage. In return, can you give me a little boost? If you can make it to Deputy CEO, I can land a position as a general manager." We had gone our own ways when we were still young, so she knew nothing about my family background. My parents had established IS Global Group overseas and gradually expanded it into what it was today. I had relied on them, but my position wasn't handed to me on a silver platter.Precisely because I was their daughter, they pushed me harder than anyone

Chapter 8

Before long, rumors about Lawson Group spread through the business world like wildfire. Miles' name dominated the headlines of financial news every day, each title more jarring than the last—"Successor Caught Cheating Right After Wedding, Lawson Group's Takes a Hard Hit", and "Billion-Dollar Collaboration Canceled Amid Lawson Group's Integrity Crisis, Company Faces Heavy Penalties" among them.…I sat in my office, calmly flipping through each report.My assistant updated me on Lawson Group's compensation negotiations. Their board of directors had held an emergency meeting overnight. Miles' peers within his family raised serious doubts about his capability. To show how seriously Lawson Group took this matter, they halted all the projects under his leadership."Ms. Hansen, they've expressed that they're willing to show their utmost sincerity. They'll pay the full compensation and hope you'll reconsider working with them. Mr. Lawson has been contacting me every day, wanting to

Chapter 9

The last time Miles proposed, it hardly felt like a real proposal. It happened only because I accompanied him to his childhood friend's wedding. While watching the couple exchange vows, he said, "We should settle down too." I had taken those words to heart and threw myself into planning our wedding.Looking back, I realized I had been too inexperienced. Our relationship had never been tested, yet I blindly believed everything would naturally work out. I looked down at him without the slightest ripple in my heart. "I need to clarify something, Mr. Lawson. I wasn't getting back at you. I was simply handling a breach of contract terms."He stubbornly held the ring up to me. "Elena and I were just putting on an act. You're the only one I ever wanted to marry!"I shook my head and took another step back. "Is sleeping with her also part of your act, Miles?"I pulled up a photo on my phone, one I hadn't shown the media. It was another picture from Elena's honeymoon diary. In the c

Chapter 10

"Is that so?" Elena fired back without the slightest hint of hesitation. "If you're blaming the first night on that aphrodisiac, what about the second, the third, and the fourth night? Did it stay in your system forever?"The men gaped at her. "So, you actually cheated during that fake honeymoon? We thought you two were just taking photos to piss Jasmine off. We even helped by leaving comments!""Elena, you're Jasmine's best friend and her bridesmaid. How could you…"Realizing the shift in their tone, she realized she'd put her foot in her mouth. "They weren't legally married. So long as they didn't register their marriage, they can date whoever they want," she mumbled before pouting. Miles' friends and the onlookers looked at her with disdain. Then, Miles' childhood friend looked at Miles in exasperation. "How could you do something like this, Miles? You knocked Elena up, yet you still came to propose to Jasmine?"Miles lowered his head. "I don't want that child, nor do I
