Jason and Alex sensed something was off but
didn’t know what.
They stayed at my temporary hotel until late at night.
When I opened my suitcase, the drafts spilled out, and Jason picked one up, his eyes lighting up.
“Emily, I knew you were looking forward to
this! Let’s have another wedding based on
this later? We have plenty of time…”
But he didn’t know, there was no “later” for
- us.
His expression was so affectionate, as if he
Alex also put his arm around my shoulder, his voice joyful.
“The Jason family will always be your home.”
After they left, I took three showers,
scrubbing my skin raw.
Early in the morning, I got into David’s car
headed for the airport, my phone constantly ringing.
Texts from Jason and Alex filled with anxious
messages.
“Where are you? Answer the phone!”
“Why can’t we find you at the hotel? Reply!!”

card and tossed it into an airport trash can.
Arriving at the wedding venue in a foreign
country, I finally felt a sense of detachment
from the past.
There was a knock on the door, and my
assistant handed me a phone streaming the
live broadcast from back home.
In the video of the Jason wedding, someone
shouted, “Here comes the bride!”
Jason looked over excitedly, but the reporters
shifted their cameras to Sarah, stepping out
of the car in a wedding dress.
She walked confidently towards Jason, who
awkwardly avoided her.

“Emily, if you don’t come soon, your husband
will be snatched away!”
This joke, so natural between them, caused
the reporters to exchange confused glances.
Sarah winked at the reporters, smiling sweetly. “Sorry, my bridesmaid dress was ruined, this is the only spare I have~”
Jason grabbed her and questioned her, his
voice low.
“Where is she?!”
Sarah stammered for a while before saying, “She’s gone! Who knows, maybe she eloped with that homewrecker!”

Jason and Alex clenched their fists and
stormed out.
The TV crew scrambled, desperately trying to
follow and film.
But as they rushed out the door…
The mall’s big screen looped a video of David
and me together over the past few days.
The crowd erupted, the topic exploding
online.
But the next second, our marriage certificate
was displayed.
It clearly stated the marriage date five days
prior – followed by all the evidence gathered
over these days

All the credit stolen from me, the manipulated
medical situations… everything.
On the phone screen, Jason and Alex paled,
their bodies swaying.
Five days ago, they had humiliated me at my
meticulously planned wedding for Sarah.
Five days later, they still let Sarah be the
bridesmaid, while I had already started a new
life.
I put down the phone, letting go of the past.
After the evidence presentation, the live
broadcast of my wedding with David began.
The plan Jason thought was for him became
ours

The plan Jason thought was for him became
ours.
A sky full of pink and white balloons, layers of
dreamy decorations…
David’s family’s resources brought my
tirelessly crafted plan to life in record time.
Seeing the perfect wedding I had poured my
heart into finally realized, my eyes welled up.
My design made the wedding radiant and
romantic.
And the Carter family’s wealth, far surpassing
the Jasons‘, added a layer of gold.
Everyone marveled at every detail, every
concept of the wedding.

“To all those who, like us, found happiness
today!”
Seeing his subtle pride, I smiled even brighter, raising my glass with him.
We both put down our microphones as the
wedding concluded perfectly.
