The Cheating Before the Wedding Chapter 4
"Fiona, what is wrong with you!?"Jeremy looked panicked. He quickly pulled Rachel into his arms, holding her protectively.Rachel had not expected me to strike either. Her large eyes welled up with tears that were on the verge of spilling as she buried her face into Jeremy's chest, rubbing against him pitifully.Finally, her tears landed on his clothes.Maybe the sight of his mistress crying burned him because Jeremy turned to me with a look of pure rage, looking as though he could devour me whole."Fiona, you're nothing but a lunatic! Do you think you're even remotely comparable to—""Shut up, Jeremy!"His father grabbed Jeremy by the arm, cutting him off before he could finish. His mother quickly stepped in, dragging Rachel out of Jeremy's embrace."Ms. Stephens, this is a family matter. You have no business being here. Please leave."Rachel shot Jeremy a glance, then tilted her chin smugly at me.Without saying another word, she turned on her heels and walked away. The sh
The Cheating Before the Wedding Chapter 5
As I cursed him, my vision blurred. The love I had for him over the years was not fake. How could I not feel heartbroken to end up like that?When did the man standing in front of me become so unrecognizable?He was once so sincere, so passionate.I remembered the winter mornings when he would wake up early to buy me my favorite handmade buns.He would warm them inside his coat and offer them to me with a silly smile, with his chest red from the heat.That year, when the dormitory caught fire and everyone was running outside, he was the only one who charged into the women's dorm, completely ignoring his safety. I had just returned and pulled him back in time.There were so many details, so many small memories. I never doubted that he loved me.However, it was clear—it was all in the past.As I wiped my tears, I saw Jeremy's lips move like he wanted to say something but did not know where to start.I ignored him and turned to his parents and the guests. "Everyone, I'm sorry for

"What's the matter? Have you grown so accustomed to handouts that you actually think it's because of your competence? Or have you decided my company belongs to you too?"I looked at Jeremy with mocking disdain. I felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction, watching his face twist with anger but seeing him hold back because I had hit the nail on the head."The success of your company over these past few years? It was all because of the stable stream of projects from my company. With your company's qualifications, if I hadn't propped you up, you wouldn't even have the right to bid on our projects. Jeremy, I can feed you, but I can also make you cough up everything you've taken."I must have used to care about you so much that you've forgotten that I'm the one holding the purse strings!"I did not hold back. Every word struck his weak points like a knife.Jeremy's face drained of color, and his eyes were a mixture of panic and pleading. "Fiona, just forgive me this once.""You think

Rachel finally snapped out of her daze, but she thought I was exaggerating. She probably did not realize that Jeremy's entire company was propped up by mine. Maybe she still believed losing me was only akin to losing a big client.She scoffed, ready to mock me, but Jeremy spoke first.He forced a stiff smile as if he had finally accepted reality but still wanted to try one last time. "Fiona, stop joking around. I won't leave you."I crossed my arms, staring coldly at him. "Jeremy Stone, I never joke."What I have the power to give you, I also have the power to take away. You didn't think I'd stay quiet and tolerate everything, even after what you did, right?"Rachel finally started to catch on. Her gaze darted between my calm demeanor and Jeremy's pale, defeated face.Still, she could not help but question aloud, "Would the company really collapse without her?"Jeremy ignored her. His only concern was begging for my forgiveness."Fiona, don't make a rash decision. Partnering wi
The Cheating Before the Wedding Chapter 8
I was honestly surprised. After our falling out, I did not think Jeremy would still have the nerve to approach me.That evening, as I got off work and entered the underground parking garage, I saw him standing beside my car.He held a giant Lotso Huggin Bear, dressed in casual clothes instead of his usual suit, looking fresh and clean with a bright smile that showed his white teeth.He called out to me and said, "Fiona, I'm here to pick you up from work."When he saw me standing still by the elevator, he walked over and shoved the toy bear into my arms.I could not help but find it amusing. That man really did still remember what I liked.However, he was no longer the youthful, energetic guy he used to be, with a muscular, athletic build from playing basketball.I glanced at his faintly protruding belly and the dull look in his eyes. Then, I shook my head in disdain.I quickly shoved the bear back at him. Without looking at him again, I got into my car, closed the door, and sta

Jeremy's mother's legs gave out, and she collapsed to the ground.His father quickly stepped in to help her up.Jeremy was in a daze and was clearly not in his right mind. As they supported him down the stairs to take him to the hospital, I followed behind, ready to leave as well.The firefighters had let Rachel go by then.She turned her gaze toward me, her eyes filled with seething hatred. Suddenly, she lunged at me."Fiona! You wretch! Because of you, I've lost everything. Go to hell!"No one saw her coming.Rachel acted so quickly, with a burst of strength and madness, that no one could react in time. She tried to shove me straight off the rooftop.Jeremy's mother screamed, trying to stop her, but it was too late.I had no time to defend myself. My hands instinctively reached out and managed to grab onto a nearby pillar, but it only slowed my fall.At the last moment, one of the firefighters who had just restrained Rachel ripped off his helmet and flung it with pinpoint p

"Where's Jeremy? Tell him to pick up the phone."The video call was answered by Rachel Stephens. I froze for a moment, but I quickly composed myself.Rachel, however, deliberately scanned the environment behind me.She pursed her lips into a sly smile. "Oh, Ms. Lurne, you're in the new house, huh?"The new bed is really soft. I've tried it out for you."I felt like I had lost all sense of gravity as my head started to buzz.I stared at the woman in the video, speechless for a moment.Rachel's gaze swept across the sheets, her voice laced with pride. "The groom's pretty great too. I've tried him out for you as well."At that moment, I finally saw where she was. She was in a hotel room.I forcefully swallowed my anger, trying to keep calm.I asked again, "Where's Jeremy?"Rachel's eyes darted to the side deliberately, her face feigning concern. "Oh, Mr. Stone is working late, of course. He's very busy."Then I heard that all-too-familiar voice."Rachel, come help me with my

I rubbed my eyes, deeply irritated from being woken up with a hangover.My tone was sharp as I said, "Didn't I tell you we're not getting married? We're done, Jeremy! Do you not understand?!"Jeremy's eyes were bloodshot as if he was desperately suppressing his anger.He finally shut his eyes tightly, gritting his teeth. "If you get dressed and come with me right now, I'll pretend none of this happened. I'll forgive you this once."How on earth did I give him the illusion that I was some lovesick fool?He thought I could not live without him because I took our relationship seriously!My gaze swept past the groomsmen behind him, who looked like they were enjoying the drama."Jeremy Stone! You were the one who messed up. Do you want to stand here and discuss your relationship with Rachel Young?"Get lost! We're done! Do you understand?!"Jeremy froze for a second before his expression shifted.The arrogance disappeared from his face and was replaced with uncertainty. He avoided

I smiled as well. How fitting—her dress made her look like she was the real star of the wedding.Rachel walked straight to the head table and sat in Jeremy's seat, ignoring everyone else.A glimmer around her neck caught my attention as she bent to sit.I stared closer, and my already ice-cold heart sank once more.It was a diamond ring. It was my wedding ring—the one I had personally designed.There was only one in the entire world.It hung around Rachel's neck like some cheap trophy.If my wedding had gone as planned, I had no idea what kind of ring Jeremy would have given me. Whether he grabbed a random substitute or snatched one off his assistant's neck—it was absolutely revolting.I clenched my fists hard to stop myself from losing control. Anger was inevitable, but I refused to let it show.Just then, Jeremy entered the room with the wedding host in tow."No wedding dress for the bride? Well, a red dress works too. It's very beautiful."The host mistook Rachel for the
