I walked onto the stage in my bloodstained wedding dress and announced that the wedding was off.As the guests stared at me in disbelief, I sent Leo a message. "Go to the courthouse in the afternoon. We're getting the divorce certificate."I took off the wedding dress I'd waited so long to wear and changed into my usual clothes.My phone remained silent, and I waited for what felt like forever.When the courthouse was about to close, I finally lost patience and called Leo. However, before the call could even connect, I froze, staring straight ahead.Leo was walking out of the courthouse with Cressida on his arm.She was holding a marriage certificate. I had one in my hand, too. It felt as though the blood in my veins had frozen.I rushed toward them and snatched the certificate from Cressida's hand.I looked from one certificate to the other. They were different.Tears streamed down my face and landed on the fake marriage certificate in my hand."You lied to me, Leo. So you p

After taking care of work-related matters, I grabbed a large trash bag and headed straight home. I stuffed everything Cressida hadn't had a chance to take with her into the bag."If you want it, go dig it out of the trash yourself."I was done trying to explain myself.Whether Leo believed I was pregnant or thought I'd stolen Cressida's place didn't matter anymore. I was leaving anyway.I didn't wait for his reply. I put on my headphones and kept sorting through the clutter.Then, a series of frantic knocks jolted me out of my thoughts."Cressida! Don't hide in there and ignore me!"I jumped, then crept toward the door. Through the peephole, I saw a man with a scar on his face.I'd never met him, but I had a pretty good idea who he was.Gideon.A chill ran down my spine. Afraid to make a move, I called Leo and kept my voice low."Gideon's been looking for Cressida. I was worried something might happen, so I gave him your address," Leo replied casually. "Just deal with him fo

"This isn't real!"Cressida was the first to react. She screamed, trying to block Leo's view of the screen while angrily hurling her bouquet at it."That's clearly your face on the video. How could this possibly be fake?"I slowly walked onto the stage and faced Cressida, who was visibly panicking.As soon as the video ended, a termination notice appeared on the screen.It clearly stated that Cressida had violated company policy and was to be fired. But before the notice could be issued, she had already resigned.The notice glowed on the screen, illuminating their faces.Cressida kept swallowing nervously, her eyes darting around as she desperately searched for a way out.Unfortunately for her, it was too late.She hadn't given me a chance to speak back then. Why should I let her keep making excuses now?"You volunteered to become a war correspondent just to be with that foreign soldier, didn't you? Why did you come back, then? Did he dump you?"I hadn't known the full story

Leo lowered his eyes. The sharpness he'd once shown was gone.His throat tightened as he hesitated for a long time before finally speaking. "I'm sorry…"His voice was low, almost breaking into a sob, but I could tell he meant it.At last, I'd heard those words from Leo. Yet, I felt no relief whatsoever.The pain I'd endured was real. The scars would stay with me for the rest of my life, reminding me of that miserable chapter whenever I saw them.He owed me an apology, but it was too late."Don't believe what Cressida said. I never saw you as a substitute for anyone. I love you. My feelings for you have nothing to do with anyone else. After all these years together, you should know how I feel about you, shouldn't you? I was just fooled by Cressida. She told me…"Leo's voice broke before he could finish.By then, his eyes were brimming with tears. He looked as though he were the one who'd been wronged.I didn't feel sorry for him. It was more like watching a clown perform.I us

I spent two years studying abroad. My mentor thought highly of me, so joining the national television network was the natural next step. I went from being a reporter to a news anchor.In the studio, surrounded by equipment of every size, I felt more at ease with myself than I had a few years earlier.I delivered the news in a steady, deliberate manner, just as I'd vowed to do when I first graduated.Never lie. Always tell the public the truth.As time passed, I gradually settled into my new life. Eventually, even when I thought back on what had happened, I could barely remember what the pain had felt like.Then one day, I spotted Leo on the street.I didn't recognize him at first.Leo had lost a lot of weight. His cheeks were deeply sunken, and the old suit he was wearing no longer fit him.The moment our eyes met, his face lit up with a radiant smile.He hurried over and held out the flowers in his hand. "I figured you'd still be working at a TV station, so I've been keeping
