His cousins all glanced at each other, one of them muttering under his breath, "She's making a big deal out of nothing. Everyone in our circle has open marriages. She should be grateful he even wants to marry her." Ashley heard every word, loud and clear, and turned to them serenely. "If I am to be grateful to be treated like an option, then no thank you. I would rather be single than half loved." Harvey glared at her, his expression hardening. "You think you can just walk away from me like this?" "Yes," Ashley replied, voice steady. "Watch me."

“For now, that may be the only medicine she needs.” The day stretched slow. Avery woke often, each time with new questions, small and piercing. “Did you bring my wedding ring? I don’t see it.” Tamer’s throat tightened. “You weren’t wearing it when—when the accident happened. I’ll get it for you soon.” “Oh.” She frowned, then softened. “You should wear yours, too. I like it when people know you’re mine.” Later, when a nurse came to adjust her IV, Avery caught Tamer’s hand again and said with absolute seriousness, “Don’t flirt with my husband.”

Neither of us had gone to bed on good terms. I slid open my small box of earrings, pausing over the delicate gold pair Asher had bought me. They were beautiful, but in a fit of defiance, I reached for the silver studs instead—the ones I’d picked out for myself long before him. A hint of rebellion soothed me as I slid them in. The last thing I wanted was to give him the satisfaction of knowing I’d thought of him while getting ready. My wedding ring lay there too, shining and mocking. I hesitated, feeling the weight of its significance, and then slowly turned away, leaving it behind.

Sherley looked around, but she didn't find Asher. "He's away," I told Sherley. Sherley nodded. "Then what did you want to talk about?" Sherley sat down next to me. "I don't know how this got out. The truth is that Asher and I... we got married secretly. You have to promise not to tell anyone about this. I'm also engaged to Asher secretly. Do you see this diamond?" Sherley covered her mouth.

How did you manage to keep everything a secret?"

she said. "I have been playing it since Adrian hired Veridian the first time." He set down his cup. "Eight years ago. I just didn't have the right person beside me to play it properly." She held his gaze. "That is," she said carefully, "an enormous amount of pressure to put on a wedding planner." "Former wedding planner. You closed the Voss file." "I wrote ‘Personal' on it. That is not the same as closing it." He smiled. The full one, unhurried. "Fair point."

“You didn’t convince me though.” “I know.” His eyes held mine. “Your company did.” The words were teasing, but something inside me tightened. He was joking, at least, I hoped he was. I smiled. “Exactly.” Richard cleared his throat. “Excellent. Now, the wedding dress has been finalized?” “Yes.” “The rings?” “Ready.” “Venue?” “Ready.” “Guest list?” “Almost ready.” Richard looked pleased. “Then everything is settled.” Almost. Not everything, because Ashley was still out there, and every second I spent pretending nothing was happening gave her more time to destroy everything I had built.

Damon answered immediately and Riya frowned at him while Thomas sighed. "No?" Riya asked, raising her eyebrows at him. "I mean... How can we get married this week? You know... Umm... Yeah, Asher. You know Asher he's not here. He should attend the wedding too. It will take time for him to come here. So, I guess we should delay the wedding." Damon answered as he scratched the back of him wishing that they would postpone the wedding. "It’s no worries. I will call Asher and tell him to come to New York immediately. That’s all. He can attend his brother’s wedding this weekend." Thomas butted in.

His eyes fell on Stacy's clenched hands and said with a chuckle, "What kind of person have you married? You haven't even bought a wedding ring for you. Why don't you leave? I'll buy it for you." Stacy lowered his head. Her hands were empty. What she wanted to say was that there was a jade bracelet on her wrist, which was given to her by Melissa. "I didn't wear it." She pretended to be calm. At that time, they had their own purposes to marry Harry, and there was only one month left. Who had the time to get a wedding ring? Thera didn't believe that she had been married and had a child. However, the foreign guests in the hotel made him have to think a lot.
