Chapter 1 The Marriage Certificate Was Fake

I only realized how terribly crafted Lydia's lies were after I held the real marriage certificate in my hands.The fake one she had given me did not even have an official seal. "Move out of that godawful house as soon as you can. I have something to deal with, so give me a few days before you actually leave." My best friend tucked the certificate into her coat and added flatly, "It's about to rain. I arranged a car for you." Then, she turned and got into the car without a backward glance. I pinched the marriage certificate in my hand again before sitting down in the back seat. It started raining cats and dogs the second I got in. Right then, Lydia called me. "Where are you? Why aren't you home yet?" If I hadn't found out about her lies, I would have softened my voice and tried to coax her. I would have told her to wait for me. However, I now knew that the love she had shown me was false and that our marriage was nothing but a sham. After all those big reveals, I felt a

Chapter 2 Get Out of My House

Lydia frowned as if I were the one making trouble. "Trevor is only doing this for our sake. Stop being so difficult." Then, she had the gall to speak as if she were doing me a favor, "Fine. I'll invite a few friends over. We can call it a small celebration for getting married." I would be stuck in the kitchen for hours whenever she invited her so-called friends over. I cooked, served, cleaned, and smiled while they treated me like some servant. I had played the unpaid live-in maid for five years. And now, I had had enough. I said clearly, "No, I won't sign that contract. This is my home, so please leave." Lydia's lips curved into a mocking smile. "Owen, do you think you can start bossing me around just because we got married? "Trevor and I grew up together. I'm not going to abandon him even though I'm married to you." How could she say something so shameless and make it sound perfectly reasonable? Now that the rose-tinted glasses were off, I found her utterly repugn

Chapter 3 I Was Never Her Real Husband

Lydia glared at me before linking her arm with Trevor's. "You don't have to leave. If we're leaving, we're leaving together." She led him toward the door, comforting him in a soft voice the entire way. Before she left, she looked back and warned, "Owen, you'd better not regret this." I did regret it. I regretted not recognizing her true nature sooner. I wished I hadn't waited until I was hurt over and over again before I finally saw the light. I detested myself for waiting until I had almost lost everything before finally seeing the truth. Right now, I only found it an utter shame that she hadn't taken a look at the names written on the marriage certificate. To be honest, I was looking forward to that. I wanted to see Lydia's reaction when she found out I had married someone else. Later, I took a cab to the hospital and had my wounds bandaged.… On the way home, Trevor sent me a message with a few photos and two lines. The photos showed his marriage certificate w

Chapter 4 My Real Wife Walked In

My expression went cold. I held out my bandaged hand. "Give it back." Trevor looked right at me, smiled, and tossed the certificate to one of Lydia's friends. He did it on purpose. He wanted everyone to see it. I stepped forward to take it back, but they immediately turned it into a game. One person tossed it to another, and then another. They laughed as I reached for it, passing it around as if I were the joke. Finally, the certificate landed in Lydia's hands. She looked smug. "You left it out in the open. Isn't this what you wanted?" Then, she opened it without permission. "Fine. Everyone can see it for themselves." She glanced at the first page before lifting it in front of me. Inside was a photo of my childhood friend and me, stamped with an official seal. Oddly enough, we looked like we belonged together. However, this was not the time to stare at the photo. I snatched the certificate back and shoved it into my pocket. Whatever that page meant could wait.

Chapter 5 My Wife Came to Take Me Home

My childhood friend, Celeste Wren, sauntered in like she the queen she was. However, the cool smile on her face vanished the moment she saw me. Instead, a stormy look flashed to life. She crossed the room in a few quick steps and pulled me behind her. Her eyes swept over everyone in the house before landing on Lydia. Lydia was the first to speak, her face tight with hostility. "Celeste, what are you doing here?" The reason they knew each other was simple. Back when Lydia and I were just starting to date, Celeste used to bring me breakfast. Celeste and I had grown up together. When we were kids, she and her mother lived in the same apartment as my family. She had always been wild, stubborn, and impossible to tame. The only person she feared was my dad. After her mother passed away, she stayed with my family for a while. Then, we came home from school together on her 15th birthday and found the courtyard crowded with strangers. Those people took Celeste away, yet sh

Chapter 6 She Was My Real Backup

As Celeste spoke, she planted one foot firmly on Lydia's back. Lydia let out a muffled cry before groaning in pain. Celeste's smile disappeared. "Bitch, don't start whining now. Where was all this fear when you were bullying my husband?" Lydia knew exactly what kind of person Celeste was; she only forgot because I contacted Celeste less after we started dating. Celeste had also stepped back from my life out of respect for my relationship with Lydia. Due to us being decent people with morals, Lydia eventually forgot one key detail—I wasn't alone because there was always someone who had my back. Lydia still had the nerve to argue. "Owen is my husband. We already signed the papers." Before she could say another word, Celeste took the marriage certificate from her pocket. Then, she held it up and opened it right in front of Lydia, revealing the stamped seal and our signatures. Celeste's voice turned cold. "Look carefully, Lydia. Owen is my husband. I gave you the chance to ch

Chapter 7 She Never Really Left Me

Good times didn't last long as Celeste's mother passed away, and I got a girlfriend. After that, I stopped paying attention to her. After she was taken back into the Wren family, my father never had another chance to unleash his legendary temper on her. "A penny for your thoughts, Owen?" Celeste tossed me a helmet, jerking me out of my thoughts. I looked at the motorcycle in front of me and immediately panicked. This was a woman who usually showed up in luxury cars, sports cars, or chauffeured sedans. Yet, she had arrived on a motorcycle. I asked, "Where's the Mercedes? The Rolls-Royce? The Maserati?" Celeste snatched the helmet from my hands and shoved it onto my head. "We're building marital chemistry today." I had no idea what she meant, but I obediently climbed onto the motorcycle anyway. The second she started the engine, my hands went from clutching at the back of her jacket to locking around her waist like a vice. I thought, 'Is this what she meant by building mari

Chapter 8 She Was My Way Home

I replied, "That works." Celeste's eyes widened. She stared at me like I had personally betrayed her as she exclaimed, utterly aghast, "That works? Owen, you've changed!" She pointed at me, looking wounded. "You're so eager to be some rich woman's trophy husband that you're actually happy that your poor wife has to take over the family business and give up her freedom?" I smiled blandly and patted her shoulder. "Celeste, work hard. I wasn't born with a silver spoon, so at least let my son be born into money." The word "son" seemed to flip a switch in her head. She suddenly buried herself in my arms, her ears turning red. "Then, what are we waiting for? Let's start working to actually put a bun in the oven." ... I saw Lydia again a month later. Honestly, I didn't expect to run into her at all. She found me at work and begged me for a chance to talk. She had become almost unrecognizable in just one month. She used to carry herself like a confident business owner. She
