All Chapters of Runaway Groom, Regretful Bride: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

In a house at Regalia Heights, in the city of Southspire, a lively atmosphere filled the dining room.Heath Lambert raised his wine glass and declared with a smile, "Now that Giselle is pregnant, Lucian, you'd better not let her suffer in any way. Otherwise, I'll be sure to hold you accountable for that!"Lucian hurriedly lifted his own glass and glanced at the beautiful woman beside him—Giselle Lambert, his wife. He earnestly replied, "You have nothing to worry about."Giselle stroked her belly, her face radiant with happiness.After speaking, Lucian drained his glass in one gulp. Giselle tugged on his sleeve and chided softly, "Don't drink so much, darling.""Huh, you guys aren’t even officially married yet, and you're already sticking up for him like this?" Melody Lambert remarked while making a slight face.She was Giselle's younger sister, who was 18 this year and enjoying her last summer before college."Who said we're not officially married?" Giselle pulled out a wedding

"I'm just checking on you," Melody said with a grin. "Do you feel like crying? Well, don't hold it in. Just cry if you want.""You're the one who wants to cry." Lucian pointed toward the door and said coolly, "If you've got something to say, say it. If not, get out. Don't bother me.""What's the rush? Giselle's with her precious Eddie anyway. She won't be coming back anytime soon. You'd be bored all by yourself, so I figured I'd come and chat with you."Melody stretched lazily, showing off the graceful lines of her youthful figure.Lucian shifted his gaze away. "So you're here to mock me? You think I'm a useless loser?""What are you talking about?" Melody huffed with a frown. "I was just worried you'd get all caught up in the situation and do something you'd regret later, so I came to keep you company."Lucian eyed her suspiciously. "Something's up with you. What is it? Just come right out and say it."She was never this friendly and polite with him."Oh. You saw right through

"Lucian! You… You're being too violent! You've truly gone crazy!" Giselle screamed as she pointed a trembling finger at him."I'm sleeping in the guest bedroom," Lucian snapped before marching out of the master bedroom.Since Giselle was pregnant, he didn't want to continue arguing with her.Meanwhile, Giselle kept staring at the shattered phone on the floor. Too angry to say anything, she didn't try to stop him.…The next morning, Lucian was woken up by the alarm. He had stayed up late last night and wasn't in the best of spirits.After getting dressed, he walked out of the bedroom and saw Giselle sitting on the couch, huffing away in anger."Oh, my. To think that someone still managed to get a good night's sleep," Giselle remarked with a sneer as she eyed Lucian.Frowning, he fired back, "If you've got something to say, say it. Don't give me that sarcasm and those pointed remarks.""Why, you!"Grinding her teeth, Giselle couldn't resist marching up to him and pinching him

Edward sat in his wheelchair, leaning against Lucian's desk as he looked down at his phone. "Wait a minute, Lucian. I'm chatting with Giselle."He looked up to flash a smirk at Lucian before turning his attention back to his phone.The smugness was practically oozing from Edward's face. Telling a husband that he was talking to his wife was a clear provocation, and Lucian wasn't a good-tempered man. He marched up to Edward and grabbed him by the collar, lifting him right off the wheelchair. "Tell me how you'd like to die."However, Edward wasn't afraid at all. With an innocent expression, he asked, "What's gotten into you, Lucian? I don't think I've done anything to offend you."His feigned naivete made Lucian's hands clench, but he didn't do anything just yet. He knew how strong he was and was afraid he'd kill Edward.After dropping Edward back into the wheelchair, he pointed at the door, commanding icily, "Get the hell out."Having fallen hard on his butt, Edward started to coug

The moment Giselle finished speaking, the sound of hurried footsteps rang out.The emergency responders stepped out of the elevator with a stretcher, accompanied by several police officers.Giselle called out, "Over here! Quick, help him!"The emergency responders rushed over to tend to Edward's injuries. And after hearing an account of the situation, the police officers put Lucian in handcuffs.All of them headed down the building together. While the emergency responders carried Edward into the ambulance, the police officers ushered Lucian into a police car.Giselle had also come down with them, feeling a little conflicted as she glanced at the police car. But after recalling Edward's pitiful state, she gritted her teeth and got into the ambulance.…When they arrived at the hospital, Edward was immediately wheeled into the operating room due to the severity of his injuries. Giselle anxiously paced outside.After two hours, the doctor came out and asked, "Who's the patient's n
