Todos os capítulos de My Ebbing Love: Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 9

In the middle of Oliver Howard's birthday banquet, the chandelier fell without warning. He lunged for his childhood sweetheart Linda Fletcher and held her close as if she were the most precious thing in his life. Meanwhile, glass shards hit my shoulder and turned it bloody. Blood trickled down my arm, but Oliver did not even look back at me. I held back tears as best I could, but it hurt… Though I could no longer tell whether the pain came from my shoulder or my broken heart. All Oliver could look at was Linda, and panic was clear on his face. "Linda! Linda, are you alright? I'm taking you to the hospital right now!" He picked her up and hurried toward the doorway out of the banquet hall. "Oliver, wait for me..." I fought through the pain in my shoulder and called after him with whatever strength I had left. However, he did not turn around. Instead, he said in a cold voice, "Selena! This isn't the time to be so stubborn! Linda's hurt and I have to get her to the hospital!"

The day before the wedding, I ate breakfast in the living room. Linda glared at me with open resentment across the table. Then, she suddenly said, "Selena, do you really think Oliver married you because he loved you?" I had a calm expression on my face and softly asked, "What do you mean?" "To Oliver, I'm more than the woman who saved his life. If I hadn't turned down his proposal back then, you never would've married him! "I should've been his bride! He chose you because you do what you're told, Selena, but I'm the love of his life! Everything about you is so laughable! "Oliver said once I came back, we'd have our whole lives to start over!" I let out a small chuckle and put down my fork, then I looked her in the eye with curiosity. "I see… And then?" Linda kept glaring furiously at me. "Don't get so smug! I wasn't really hurt at all. I just told Oliver my hand hurt, and he got so worried he took me to a doctor." She stood up and then placed both hands on the table, fu

"Find her!" Oliver grabbed the man's collar and threw him aside, his face filled with anger. The bodyguard said, "Sir, we've checked every road to the chapel, and we can't reach her by phone either..." Linda stepped close with a faint smile and whispered in Oliver's ear. "She's probably just jealous and is hiding on purpose, waiting for you to find her." Oliver's expression finally calmed down. He pulled out his phone and called me, but it wouldn't even connect. "Put the wedding on hold! I'll go get her myself!" He clenched his fists and hurried out. Jealousy flashed in Linda's eyes as she followed him into the car. "I'll go back with you. Selena must be blaming me, so I'll go and apologize to her." The car raced back and stopped outside the manor. It was far too quiet inside. Oliver looked around, and panic appeared on his face. He called my name as he walked through the manor, but no one answered. He searched every room, but I was nowhere to be found. Then he rushed i

Oliver's expression was stained with madness. He was reaching for me several times, as if he wanted to drag me away. "No! I still love you! I don't want to end our relationship. Selena, come back to me. We've been together for five years. You can't just decide to leave me! Is it because of this man? Have you fallen for someone else? Is that why you want to leave me?" His voice was full of anger, drawing the attention of the other guests. Lucien's expression darkened. He signaled to his men to calm the guests, then grabbed Oliver and hauled him outside. Linda stepped forward. "Let go of Oliver..." However, Oliver cut her off before she could finish. "Selena! You said you would love me forever and never leave me! Have you forgotten all that?" I watched silently as Oliver struggled and failed to break free. For all his grace, I had never expected Lucien to be so strong. I shook my head and pushed the chaotic thoughts away. "Oliver, I was never the one who forgot those promis

Lucien's hand tightened around mine, his expression and actions told me everything. "Yes, but not out of malice. I just wanted him to know what a wonderful woman he'd lost. He said he loved you, but he ignored you and let you get hurt. He even locked you in the basement because of her. I wanted him to learn the truth and then lose you for good. I'm sorry, I..." Lucien looked into my eyes, with only heartache in his eyes. He was right. Oliver said he loved me, but he had hurt me in so many ways. He had always treated Linda better than he treated me. If I could not feel his love, it was not there. Oliver struggled violently. "Selena, he tried to split us up on purpose! Then he tricked you into agreeing to marry him! Please break up with him! We can still get married!" I only gave Oliver one glance before turning back to Lucien. "So what if he lied to me? That's between us. Throw him out. I don't want him disrupting our engagement party." I took Lucien's hand and walked towa
