Chapter 11

“Clark?”Thomas stopped touching me. In fact, he froze entirely. In the next second, he sneered. “Why’s he here? Is he here to ask for credit for helping us during a crucial time? Even without him, I could have still found the evidence.”He sounded so jealous that I wanted to laugh. “Are you jealous?”Thomas narrowed his eyes. “How can I not? Your ex is here. Am I supposed to clap for him?”His expression turned even more sour. I hugged him and nuzzled against him. “Don’t worry. I won’t change my view of him just because he did these things.”Thomas’ expression finally turned gentler. Even so, he was still sarcastic. “Who knows? First loves tend to be really powerful love rivals. What if your heart goes out to him after you two meet, and he’s truly remorseful?”I could not help it, I snickered. “Do you really lack such confidence in yourself?”He hugged me and buried his face in the crook of my neck as he mumbled, “It’s not that I’m not confident. I just care too much about yo

Chapter 12

As Clark watched me, various emotions surged wildly in his eyes. A long while passed before he whispered, “I’ve never fallen in love with Samantha before. Truly.”I just watched him quietly and said nothing. He gulped and continued, “If I truly loved her, after learning about the truth, I wouldn’t have personally submitted the evidence to the police, and I wouldn’t have been so calm after she died.”Then, he looked up, and there was a trace of tenderness on his face. “You were always the only person I’ve ever loved.”It was as if Clark had finally ripped off the mask of restraint and indifference he had worn for years. For the first time, he said all the things he never told me. “While we were still in university, you were like the sun that surrounded me constantly. You brought breakfast for me, stayed up with me overnight in the library, and would be happy for a long time from my simple utterances. You might not believe it, but I was actually scared of you back then.”That took

How did Clark learn that there was a contract between me and Thomas?While I was still dumbfounded, I heard someone coming downstairs. In an instant, Thomas arrived in front of Clark and demanded, “Who told you that my marriage with my wife is only a contract?”Clark rose to his feet and said confidently, “A colleague of mine wrote the contract you signed. You asked Yvonne to marry you to help keep your parents off your back. After five years, you’d let her leave with a sum of money. Isn’t that right?”I hung my head, as my thoughts involuntarily returned to five years ago. Back then, I had only recently arrived in the country of Mercoles. By then, I had already drained my inheritance in the lawsuit. I was penniless. In order to survive, I worked hard. Later on, through sheer coincidence, I became an intern in a company under Lane Corporation. Yet the moment Jacob Lane—Thomas’ grandfather—saw me, he teared up and said that I looked like a granddaughter of his. She had passed a

As Clark watched me hold Thomas’ hand, his face started turning increasingly pale. “That’s impossible…”Thomas chuckled. He hugged me in a clearly possessive manner. “Clark, what exactly do you need us to do for you to believe that we’re an actual married couple?”Thomas gave him a lackadaisical look, but his words were horrible. “Should I do it with my wife in front of you?”My face burned as I smacked him. “What on earth are you saying, Thomas?!”When Thomas saw how exasperated I was, he laughed happily. He grabbed my hand and kissed it. “Why are you feeling embarrassed? It’s normal for a married couple to do such things.”I only turned redder. But Clark’s expression turned as dark as thunderclouds as he stared at Thomas’ hand around my waist. The veins on his temples bulged. Thomas had also clearly lost all his patience. He turned to Clark and said coldly, “Clark, we won’t be sending you off. My wife and I still have something important to do.”He stressed the final fe

“What’s got your attention?” Suddenly, I heard Clark speak behind me. I snapped out of my daydreaming and drew the curtains shut. “It’s nothing. I just saw someone unimportant.”The bit of fiery red outside was thus shut behind the thick curtains as I completely blocked it from my life. Clark hugged me from behind and put his chin on my shoulder. “Is he really unimportant?”I turned around, cupped his face, and planted a loud smooch on his lips. “Yes. To me, you’re the most important.”When I said these words, my heart was unprecedentedly light. It was as if I was finally saying goodbye to my past. Clark’s eyes immediately crinkled into a smile. In the next second, he picked me up and brought me back to bed. “You’re so sweet tonight, honey! Let me be sweet to you too.”My instincts immediately cried that things were about to go bad for my back. “Thomas, you—”Before I could finish speaking, he kissed me again. …When it ended, it was dawn. I was so tired that I could no

Clark cast me an instinctive glance, and I could see panic on his face. In the next second, he strode over to me and started explaining himself, “Yvonne, don’t misunderstand. This is my cousin. She’s about to get married, and I’m only here to accompany her to try on wedding gowns.”That took me by surprise. I did not know why he was telling me this. Then, I laughed. “What does your cousin have anything to do with me?”He turned pale, but I could no longer be bothered to give him any more of my attention. “Could you leave? I’m going to try on my wedding gowns.”The shop attendant looked troubled. “Mr. Stane, why don’t you…?”However, Clark pretended as if he did not hear me. His eyes landed on the gowns in my hands, and he turned even paler. When he saw a fishtail gown, he teared up. I looked at the gown too and remembered something. Back then, when we prepared for our wedding, the gown I had picked was pretty much the same as this one. I pointed at that gown and said to the s

I stared into Clark’s eyes and watched him for a few seconds before realizing that he was actually serious. So, I immediately mocked him. “Clark, do you actually want to be my affair partner? But I don’t want you. You can’t compare to my husband at all.”Yet despite what I said, he still refused to give up. “What about him is good? I can learn.”I was stunned. Clark had been so high-and-mighty, so proud, and so aloof in the past. Yet, he was saying such things. Unfortunately for him, it was already too late. As I watched him, I said seriously, “Everything about him is good, because he is Thomas. You’ll never compare to him.”The last spark of hope in Clark’s eyes faded away, and I lost my final bit of patience. “Leave. If you don’t, I’m going to start screaming.”But he hugged me tightly. “Yvonne…”His voice quivered. “You weren’t like this before… You once loved me so much…”At that moment, I felt my mind wander. That was true. The Yvonne in the past truly loved Clark. S

Chapter 18

Clark’s actions only served to annoy Thomas. He stood up and punched Clark. Caught off guard, Clark stumbled back, and he immediately started bleeding from his mouth. But Thomas had not had enough. He grabbed his collar with ruthlessness burning in his eyes. “Are you done? Regardless of whether she says yes, she’s still my wife! You have no right to stand here, not when you’ve hurt her before!”Despite being hurt, Clark was still staring at me. However, I simply grabbed Thomas. “Stop.”Thomas turned around. His rage had yet to pass. “Honey, he…”I simply shook my head. “We shouldn’t have our romantic moment ruined because of someone insignificant.”Clark’s face instantly turned pale. Meanwhile, I took the ring from Thomas’ hand and put it on my ring finger. As I stared at the brilliantly red ruby, I smiled. “It’s a beautiful ring.”I looked at him. “I really want to marry you, Thomas.”Thomas’ breathing hitched. Then, he hugged me tightly and kissed me just as fiercely.

Chapter 19

We had a grand wedding. Clark had practically brought all the best things in Atila City before me. Roses covered the aisle. Crystal chandeliers lit up the church like stars. As I walked to Thomas in my wedding gown, I suddenly recalled a moment many years ago. I had left Atila City alone, and even surviving was difficult for me. Back then, I thought that the whole world had abandoned me. I never expected that a day would ever come where I would find someone who loved me so much. When we exchanged wedding vows, Thomas was, for once, a little nervous. He held my hand and said, “In the beginning, I only wanted to find a suitable wife who was pretty, smart, knew her place, and could make my grandfather happy.”The audience laughed, especially Jacob. He laughed so much that his beard trembled. I giggled as well. Thomas had his eyes trained on me, and his eyes were full of gentleness. “Later on, I realized that a person could truly become greedy for a person. I started wan
