Can't believe this is Kane's wedding day with Vella. Early in the morning the stupid man had told me to get up and clean myself up so I would look fresher at the two humans' wedding. But of course I insisted on not doing what he was told and I didn't want to go to their blessing at all. Because it would hurt me even more and feel like I was going to die.

“Hello Laurel, are you ready to witness our blessing ceremony?”

Suddenly Vella came with a white gown and a flower crown on her head. Although I'm lazy to admit it, but she is very beautiful in that dress. If only she didn't marry Kane today, then I would gladly praise her beauty. But since today she will marry Kane, then I don't want to praise her at all, never!

"What are you here for? I don't want to come to that damn event. I'd rather be here forever than I should see the two of you vow to each other before God."

“Oh my gosh, that hurts so bad. But, I will still drag you to come there, with or with

    "Hello, Tina.. How was your date last night, did everything go well?"“Laurel!! I really want to thank you. Thanks to all the counseling you gave, Adam finally proposed to me. You should come to my house right now, and I'll show you my amazing twenty-four karat ring,” Tina shouted excitedly.I smiled faintly in response to all her ravings while still holding my phone between my shoulder and ear. Today I have to finish my counseling patient data that has been piling up on my desk. If I don't finish it soon, the hospital will be too late to recap the patient data that I have treated for the last three months."Wow, congrats honey. Too bad today I'm really very busy and can't come to your house. Maybe next time I'll come over there and see for myself what your twenty-four karat engagement ring looks like. It must be very expensive and luxurious.”"Yes of course. Anyway, if you're not busy, you should make time to come to my house. I would b

    I stepped into the house feeling angry and annoyed. Mom suddenly called me and told me to hurry home. What's really going on with mom? She doesn't usually act like this. In fact, it was completely intolerable when I told my mother that I had to take care of some things at the hospital first. But my mother firmly told me to go home right now. No rebuttal, period. “Laurel, huh finally. Mom has been waiting for you since an hour ago. Where have you been? What took you so long?" It's only been five seconds since my feet hit the floor, and my mother has been bombarding me with all sorts of questions. What kind of mother is this? Mother should have greeted me with a sweet smile and a warm cup of tea, not with a series of annoying-sounding questions. "What's wrong with you, mom? Why are you so noisy?" I asked lazily while still walking my feet into the house. I purposely ignored the sharp gaze my mother gave me. Whatever. Mother has been the most annoying mo

    Knock knock knock I tilted my head towards the door and immediately made a friendly face at a woman who had just entered my room. I saw the woman was also smiling at me, then I invited her to sit on the chair I had prepared. "Good afternoon," I greeted politely and kindly. The woman smiled faintly at me and just nodded her head in response to my greeting. "Mm.. okay, please state your name, miss." "Kim Yeri," the woman answered briefly. I thought this woman was a friendly and kind woman, but it turns out she is stingy to speak. Look at her gloomy face, she must be in serious trouble right now. “Kim Yeri, do you have a serious problem? You can start telling me now." "Hwaa, I... I’m... hwaaa." Oh my, what's with this woman. Why is she being hysterical like this? Could it be that she is one of the victims of female rape that has recently been broadcast on television? "No.,. miss, what's wrong? Are yo

    "Mom, my car is broken, what shoul I do?" I called my mother on the side of the road while looking at my car with annoyance. Even though I was in a hurry, but this damn car was damaged and stuck in this place. "Laurel, you should find a taxi, your future husband has been waiting for fifteen minutes," said mom, sounding worried. To hell with my future husband. My car is broken! “Mom, I don't think I'll be seeing that mysterious man. My make-up has been ruined, my face also looks dull. I'd better go home and take my car to the repair shop." “No, you should come to that cafe and meet your future husband. I'll send you a photo of your future husband, so you don't have to look around for the guy when you get to the cafe." “But, mom… hello, mom… mom… Argghh, damn it.” My mom disconnected the phone unilaterally. That means I really can't argue and thwart the matchmaking plan that has been arranged by my mother.

Everything had to be under his control, and he didn't want to be denied.As a prospective bride, of course I am very happy.

Hmm, it must be really nice if I can serve him wholeheartedly.

    Flash back "You have a sexual orientation disorder?" The man was still silent with a flat face and arms folded in front of his chest. The look in his eyes was completely flat and unreadable, which made me a little annoyed and unsure as well. Maybe this guy is crazy and is plotting something to set me up. He wanted to pretend to marry me and then sell me to an old mob mobster. Or maybe he's actually an organ-selling mafia who has been frequently shown on midnight news programs. Kane would marry me, then he would kill me when the time was right to take my organs and sell them. “So you really have a sexual orientation disorder? God, I don't want to marry you. What would happen to me if I married a handsome man who was rich, but gay. I'd rather marry a cleaning service at a hospital, than marry a gay guy like you." "Can you shut up and not make a noise. I'm currently thinking of the right answer for you. Why do you like doing weird things

    This day has finally arrived. My wedding drama day with Kane! I can't describe how I feel right now, a mixture of nervousness and sadness. I felt sorry for my mother especially for lying to her about our marriage. My mom thought I fell in love at first sight after meeting Kane at the cafe, but she was wrong. I haven't loved Kane at all. Even my heart doesn't beat loudly when I'm near Kane. This marriage happened because of an agreement between the two of us. I helped Kane cure his strange phobia, then in exchange he helped me to make my mother happy. Actually last night I was thinking maybe I'll be able to love Kane someday and vice versa. Kane will love me too then things will get easier.So this morning I don't want to burden my mind with strange things that are not necessarily going to happen. I eliminated all the bad thoughts that had crossed my head and then I just focused on my beautiful wedding dress. Finally I will be wearing a wedding dress by a famous desig

    After a chaotic and harrowing blessing ceremony at the most historic church in Paris, we ended up in a limousine in a thick silence. The wind from the air conditioner was blowing very loudly between us who hadn't said anything since leaving the Notre-Dame Cathedral. Kane sat beside me nervously, his hands actively moving to scratch his itchy skin. But if the itching goes away for a moment, he'll put his hands on his lap and just sit still like a statue next to me. There is a ring on his finger. I then glanced at mine, it looked just as beautiful as his. But I'm still upset about what happened today. The expensive dress I was wearing had turned into a worthless pile of cloth in an instant. The soft satin was torn on all sides, especially at the tail of the dress which hung down at my feet because that was where the most of the trampled on. "You don't want to say something? Apologize to me maybe," I huffed. "Why am I apologizing to you? Not my fault." He still

    "Miss, it's time to eat." I slowly opened my eyes while trying to move my whole body which felt completely crushed right now. The stupid man was seen carrying a plate and a glass of milk in his hand. This time, I felt he was different from the previous him. Didn't he look cruel and stupid yesterday? Why did he suddenly turn into a kind and gentle man like this? But, I don’t care. After all, my life has no meaning anymore. If this man now carries a poison, I won't care either. The sooner I die, the better. "Miss, are you okay?" I blinked a few times and shook my head slowly. I lazily took the food from his hand, then I started to put the pieces of vegetables into my mouth. Turns out I was quite hungry too. And I think this food is very good and very different from yesterday's menu. "Why are you still here?" I sarcastically asked the black man after I realized that the man was still standing in front of me and observing. The man smiled awkwardly in fron

    I slowly opened my eyes while groaning in pain. It felt like my whole body was being tied to a chair. I felt the atmosphere where I was confined was very dark and stuffy. There was no light here at all, except for a faint light that shone through the cracks in the frail-looking wooden door. I moved my hands here and there, trying to free myself from the grip of this rope. But the more I tried, the grip on the rope made my wrist even more sore and sore. I winced in pain while trying to calm myself who was starting to panic. Surely at this moment Vella was laughing out loud at the pain I was going through. What Kane said is true, Vella is a very terrible psychopath. I never even imagined this would happen to me. I thought I could fight Vella and cure her strange disorder. But I was wrong. Right now I'm helpless and don't have any strength. My previous belief, somehow has disappeared just like that. What Kane is doing now? He must have been very panicked and was looking for me

    My eyeballs faintly caught the light that was so blinding and pierced my eyes. While groaning in pain, I forced myself to open my eyes wide and adjust to the bright light that turned out to be coming from the hospital room lights. Kane smiled gently to greet me when finally my eyes were able to fully open and adjust to the bright light from this room. "Water," I stammered in a hoarse voice. I felt my throat was so dry I couldn't speak. How long have I been lying unconscious like this? Everyone at Hanah's school must have been panicked when this afternoon's incident took place. But everything was unexpected and I never imagined that I would be hit by an accident like that at Hanah's school. "Are you feeling hurt?" Kane asked looking worried. I shook my head slowly, gripping one of his hands tightly. "I'm fine, it was just a minor incident, don't worry too much about it." “Minor incident? Oh my God, you almost made me faint on the spot because o

    "Kane, I'm going backstage to see Hanah."I immediately left after getting a nod from Kane. During the dance performance, Max and I were very excited to cheer, supporting Hanah who was dancing on stage beautifully. As for my rigid husband, he repeatedly yawned bored while fiddling with his smartphone lazily. Several times the corner of my eye glanced at his phone, he was observing his company chart which was constantly crawling up. He had nothing else to do but swipe up and down the screen of his cellphone to distract from the boredom he was feeling. He wasn't actually in the plans to attend a children's event like this. He'd better be at home and drown himself with dozens of boring company files. But only because Vella suddenly came, I decided to bring him to this event because I didn't want Kane to spend time alone with Vella.BughA woman in a red hat hit me hard on the shoulder. I turned to the woman in annoyance while holding my aching shoulder.&ldq

    At ten o'clock the three of us arrived in front of Hanah's school which looked very crowded by students and parents. They all looked happy with their children and hand in hand entered the wide school grounds. The children came with a variety of very cute costumes. Some wore duck costumes, some wore clown costumes, all of them seemed enthusiastic to welcome today's dance festival.Max then guided me and Kane to follow him into Hanah's class. There the little girl was seen busy getting ready with one of her class teachers."Hanah is so adorable," I muttered, giggling at Kane.The little girl waved her hand at me and was about to run towards me. But her class teacher immediately held her hand because she had not finished wearing the costume."Mommy!" Hanah shouted enthusiastically.She wiggled her hands in annoyance when her class teacher wrapped her arms even tighter.“Wait a minute Miss Hanah. You almost dropped your sunflower ornament.

    The next day everything went normally. I seem to have forgotten what happened yesterday and decided to forget everything. I don't want to be stressed about a problem I can't fix at all. I'll just waste energy if I keep thinking about that problem in my head, while Kane and Vella don't even think about it at all. Today I start my day by cleaning the house and cooking. Nothing is different after our fight last night. I'm not too bothered by yesterday's problem either. I don't care about all the lies that Kane has made or his complicated past. The most important thing now is that he lives with me and loves me with all his heart. I honestly felt really touched by his courage to try to be honest with me. Yesterday he was really really awesome. Well, even though I was disappointed in him. But never mind, why get angry and keep fighting. It won't solve any problem. We are both adults and want to do things better as adults. We should be able to resolve our quarrels with a cool head

    The light in the living room lit up brightly when my feet stepped into the main room. Dimly I heard the voice of a woman who was talking seriously in the living room with a hoarse voice like she was crying. My eyeballs looked warily into the house to see who the female guest was and what was she doing in my house? "Kane, I love you so much." Isn't that Vella's voice? With quick steps I immediately brought my feet to enter the living room. There I saw Vella and Kane hugging each other, with Vella who was seen crying while covering her face with both hands. Before long, Kane looked up and he looked into my eyes intently. I, who was still in shock, could only look at him with a sad and jealous look. A sudden pain stabbed into my heart. Didn't he promise me to make up and start over? But why did he do this? It made me feel sick and disappointed. He betrayed me. "Laurel, go to your room," Kane said coldly and flatly. His loud voice hurt me even more. My he

    “Hello mom, how are the orphanages and sunflower gardens doing now? I haven't had time to visit them yet. Did the local government take good care of them?” This afternoon I took the time to call my mother and ask about the orphanage and my sunflower garden. Since Hanah and Max haven't arrived yet, I can take a little longer to call mom. I haven't called mom in a long time and chatted with her. The last time I called mom, when I told mom I wasn't pregnant, and it's been a really long time. "Oh my God, where have you been? You haven't called me in days and visited me. What have you been doing all this time? I always come to your house, but you guys must be working. You abandoned me after marrying Kane. And now you're just asking about your orphanage and sunflower garden. Tsk, you brat." Mom threw all kinds of protests at me. I can imagine her frowning face as she talks to me right now. Must be very funny. And I really don't mind mom scolding me. It is reasonabl
