Our Final Goodbye
On the day the Cole family went bankrupt, Adrian Cole left behind a suicide note and went alone to the snow mountains to end his life.
I chased after him without hesitation, searching for him in the snow for a full ten hours.
Just as despair hollowed me out completely, I saw his secretary, Zoe Bennett, livestreaming Adrian's proposal on social media.
One of his friends joked in the comments, "You're about to be a groom. Aren't you afraid your woman will get mad?"
His reply was icy cold. "I only promised her the title of Mrs. Cole. She shouldn't even think about anything else."
Another comment followed. "She's marrying in with ten billion in investment. Is she really willing to swallow that kind of grievance?"
I could almost see Adrian sneering as he typed, "She got ten billion for the position of Mrs. Cole. She's not losing out. If it weren't for her, Zoe wouldn't have been forced to go abroad. These last few days are my compensation to Zoe."
My fingernails dug deep into my flesh. Calmly, I burned everything that had anything to do with him.
On the day of the wedding, he went mad searching for me everywhere.
In the upscale venue across the street, I had just slipped on a diamond ring given to me by another man, Julian Cross.
Unbeknownst to him, while he was calculating the countdown to our breakup, I was also preparing to marry someone else.
