Reborn: I Married His Nemesis のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 5

ALICEThe strings of the violins hummed from the corner of the hall, filling the room with the exact soft melody I had imagined since I was a little girl. I moved down the aisle, stepping past rows of high floral arrangements and silk drapes that were supposed to make the room look like something out of a fairy tale. The heavy crystal lights overhead caught the sparkle in my gown as I made my way toward the raised platform. At the end of the carpet stood Dominic Steven. He looked perfect in his custom black suit, tailored down to the last inch. I wanted to feel that familiar flutter of excitement in my chest, the kind a bride is supposed to feel, but the elaborate setup just felt like a trap closing in on me.All around us, hands clapped and camera flashes cut through the air. I stepped up onto the platform to face Dominic. He smiled at me, a look that used to turn my knees to water back when I still believed it was real. But today, I saw right through it.

I reached down, my fingers shaking, and pulled the ring off my finger.Staring at the sparkling piece of metal, more tears blurred my vision as the memory of the day D

That was never the surprising part. It was what men like him do when no one was watching.Still, Alice wasn’t acting like a woman whose heart had been broken. She was acting like someone who had already decided the exact ending of her story, and that made me curious to know more about her."So now that you're my wife," I said, leaning back slightly. She looked over in my direction, a flash of shock crossing her face. "Do you have the idea that you're going to be staying with me."Her eyes widened as if the reality of the situation had just hit her. "No. We don't have to live together or do anything like that."I arched an eyebrow at her, watching as she quickly shifted her gaze away from me. "Well, cupcake, that setup doesn't work for me. The whole city already knows we got married today,
