I was at the hotel confirming tomorrow's wedding details when a video came in from an unknown number.I opened it. Jade Bruckner was in it, wearing her wedding dress.A pair of large hands gripped her waist. Her skin, usually pale as snow, had flushed a deep red. The dress's heavy, layered skirt hid most of what was happening, but by the end of the clip, the once-pristine gown was filthy and crumpled.A message followed from the same number, needling me on purpose.[So what if you two get married? I'm the only one she's ever loved.]My vision went black for a second. Something closed around my chest like a net, cinching tight, and for a long moment I couldn't breathe.The wedding coordinator must have noticed something was wrong with my face, because she asked carefully, "Mr. Thelen, just to confirm, the sneakers are what pair with the main gown for the ceremony, correct?"I snapped back to myself, and almost laughed at how pathetic I looked.While we were planning the wedding,

I didn't sleep at all that night.I downloaded every photo and video the unknown number had sent me, then cut them together with screenshots from Jade's secret account into a single video.I dug up Preston's information, found his wife's phone number, and called to invite her to the ceremony.Then I reached out to the most-followed local livestreaming platform and paid them to broadcast my wedding live.By the time I finished, the sky had gone fully bright.I drove to the hotel. When I arrived, Jade was already in hair and makeup.Her face looked awful, like she hadn't slept.The moment she saw me, her expression turned cold. "What took you so long? Do you have any idea I didn't sleep a wink last night, all because of you?"Because of me?I said nothing.I didn't even feel like exposing her lie.She must have sensed something was off, because her tone softened."Why aren't you saying anything? I know I snapped at you just now, but I'm just really nervous; it's my first wedd

I refunded every guest's gift money, sent everyone home, and took the groomsmen and Kyle out for drinks instead.Behind me, Jade screamed and sobbed like her heart was breaking. I didn't look back.I never found out how things ended between her and Preston.But after that day, the video of the two of them went viral across every social platform.A few small-time local influencers started ambushing her on the street, shoving cameras in her face without any shame."Everyone, look who we found, it's the real-life Thrill Queen! Send a rocket gift, and I'll slap her live on camera."Thrill Queen was the nickname netizens had given her, taken straight from her and Preston's own recorded conversation.The algorithm never misses. We'd shared such a deep connection once, so every post about her still found its way to my feed.Annoyed, I blocked the keywords, only for her call to come through the very next second.She was sobbing hard."Tony, baby, I was wrong, I'm so sorry, please for

Candace picked out an elegant, pleasant French restaurant.But we got off to a bad start.The moment we walked in, we ran into Jade.She rounded on me, furious. "Who is this woman?"I kept my face cold. "What business is that of yours?"Jade's eyes reddened, tears rolling down in fat drops. "Tony, baby, you can't do this to me!""I know you love me. How could you be with another woman? I won't allow it. We're the ones who belong together. Tell me right now, who is this woman?"Before I could say anything, Candace burst out laughing."That's rich. While you were off fooling around with your loverboy, did it ever occur to you that Tony and I were actually a match?"Jade glared at her. "Shut up! This is between me and Tony. It's none of your business."Candace's mouth curved up. She lifted a hand and looped it through my arm. "I'm making it my business. What are you going to do about it?"Jade looked ready to tear her eyes out. "Let go of him!"She lunged forward to hit Candac
