A Love That Turned to Dust Chapter 6
After that, Dominic bent down to clean the stains off Mdm. Miranda's tombstone calmly."I have one more piece of good news for you, Mom—Isabelle and I will be getting married soon. You've raised her since she was a little girl, so you should be delighted to hear about our wedding."As for things with Ophelia… Well, I regret everything, Mom."Thunder rumbled loudly at that moment. Dark clouds began converging over the land.However, Dominic's statement of his regret rang out clearer than the thunder. My ears kept ringing from his voice.With dull eyes, I lingered around Dominic quietly. I watched as he opened the car door thoughtfully for Isabelle and discussed the best date to get married.They were like a match made in heaven. My appearance was just a trial that stood in their way of achieving true love.Now that the trial was over, those two would be celebrating their true love by sealing it with a holy matrimony. Of course, Dominic decided to give Isabelle the dream wedding I

Everyone went into an uproar right after hearing those words. I instinctively turned to look at the stage as well.The next thing we knew, the door was flung open from the outside. A few policemen strode into the ballroom.Adrian just said with a smile, "It seems that a certain someone hasn't lost his conscience entirely. Here's where the good part starts, Ophelia."I watched as he pressed a button. The wedding photos on the monitor were instantly replaced with surveillance footage. The first part was the video showing my accident. The second part showed the footage of Isabelle fleeing from Sharp Manor.I finally understood what sort of gift Adrian had meant earlier. He wanted to expose Isabelle's true colors in front of everyone at the wedding.The wedding, which was initially filled with blessings given by others, was reduced to nothing but chaos. All the guests kept speaking with each other in low tones.Panicked and scared, Isabelle instinctively sought Dominic out for his pr

Adrian drove very quickly. The silhouettes outside the car window streaked by us in a flash. He gnashed his teeth together tightly, and his defined jaw was extremely tense the whole time. He was so nervous that his eyes were glued to the front no matter what.I wanted to tell Adrian that there was no need to drive this quickly. I wasn't in a hurry to pass on, after all. The next thing I knew, Adrian slowed down the car. It was as if he could hear my thoughts.He said with a smile, "We're almost there, Ophelia. Are you scared?"A trace of undefined emotions that I couldn't decipher could be seen in his eyes.I shook my head. I wasn't scared at all.Adrian's lips curled into a smile. He replied happily, "It's good that you're not scared at all, Ophelia. Please… don't put yourself through this kind of torture ever again in your next life."Stunned, I mouthed back silently, "Okay."Soon, the car slowed to a halt at the beach, but Adrian didn't get out of the car for a while. He just

Two hours had already passed by the time Dominic Sharp arrived at the crematorium. His clothes were slightly disheveled, and there was a bright lipstick print on his collar.One could easily tell that he just had a passionate moment with another woman.After tracking down an employee of the crematorium, Dominic asked mockingly, "So? Where's Ophelia Burton's urn? Didn't you call me to come pick it up?"After the employee made sure that Dominic was the right person, he passed him the urn which contained my ashes.Dominic accepted the urn casually. His eyes were still filled with mockery. "Is this really Ophelia's urn? Maybe you're just tricking me by filling this urn with ashes belonging to some poor bastard."The employee was bewildered to hear such a statement. "Mr. Sharp, this urn does contain Ms. Burton's ashes. We have everything recorded down. Would you like to take a look at them?"Dominic smirked. "It's fine. I trust you."I let out a sigh of relief. I didn't know why, but

I widened my eyes in disbelief. Only now did I fully realize the extent of Dominic's hatred toward me. He hated me so much that he thought my death would be a celebratory occasion.But the thing was, I was really dead. It was just that Dominic refused to believe it.The car stopped outside a wedding boutique. Dominic strode into the boutique in wide steps soon enough.The way he moved so hurriedly reminded me of the day he took me to the wedding boutique after we secretly got our marriage licenses at the City Hall. Back then, he couldn't wait to see how I looked in a wedding gown. He had pulled me into his arms excitedly and told me that I was the most beautiful bride in the world.But now, he gazed tenderly at Isabelle, who was clad in a wedding gown of her own. He tucked a lock of hair behind her ear before praising her in a gentle tone, "You look beautiful."Isabelle lowered her head while smiling bashfully. When she looked up at Dominic once again, there were tears in her ey

Half a month later, Dominic finally returned to the home he and I lived in. He flung the door open violently while yelling, "Ophelia, get out here right now!"He kicked down door after door, yet he could never find any traces of me in the house. This caused his dark expression to darken even more.Dominic ordered his subordinates to track me down. After that, he murmured darkly, "Oh, Ophelia. Since you want to run away that badly, you'd better escape as far as you can from me! Otherwise, I'll definitely break your legs once I get my hands on you!"The thing was, I was standing right in front of him.Soon, one of his subordinates sent a set of coordinates to Dominic's phone. Dominic's expression gradually became more twisted. I looked at his phone in confusion and soon recognized the location pinpointed by the coordinates. It was my childhood friend, Adrian Prince's home."Mr. Sharp, Mrs. Sharp was last seen contacting Mr. Prince. But Mr. Prince claims to never have met her. We s

Dominic was stunned for a moment. That was when Adrian used the opportunity to deliver an uppercut across Dominic's jaw."Ugh…"It was then Adrian got up from the floor. He spared a condescending glance at Dominic, who was visibly dumbstruck.Adrian ordered coldly, "I want you to take your men and get the hell out of my house right now."Dominic got up instantly. Instead of leaving, he shoved Adrian out of his way and rushed into the study. My photos were spread out on the desk. All of the photos showed my face, which was completely covered in blood. I was even unrecognizable in some of the photos.I just glanced at the photos before looking away. I knew very well just how terrible I looked when I died. One of my eyes had popped out of its sockets. The left section of my forehead had completely caved in. The forensic doctor had a difficult time discerning my identity back then.To think that Adrian would have these gruesome photos spread out on his desk. I couldn't help but won
