He cheated for a richer woman, I agreed to a family marriage. He broke down when he learned who I am

while shopping at the mall with my best friend I saw my boyfriend of six years he had his arm around another girl laughing happily when he noticed me he didn't turn away in panic nor did he look guilty he even waved at me when I returned to the home we shared he was sitting on the sofa smoking his exhaustion was plain to see he was still as gentle as ever baby if I had to rely on my own efforts who knows how long it would take for me to make a place for myself in the

city I nodded an understanding swallowing back the words I had planned to say about my family background then I turned and left to go home and accept the arranged marriage baby you really convinced your family to let you marry freely I'm so jealous Elsie clung to my arm casually pointing at an expensive handbag on the display counter but her eyes sparkled as she stared at me I lowered my gaze then lifted it again with a radiant smile yeah I did win the right to choose my own marriage but I also lost my influence over my

family's business from now on I would only receive dividends from my shares but compared to Chapman none of that mattered I slung an arm around Elsie's shoulders speaking lazily now I can live a life of luxury and Leisure my voice cut off abruptly through the Spotless glass of the luxury store I saw the boutique across from us the man I had loved for six years was there holding another woman laughing happily their intimacy made it clear this wasn't new the woman was bending down to admire a piece of jewelry while Chapman with nothing to do

casually glanced around and then his eyes met mine I thought he would Panic that he'd be flustered but he simply waved at me as if I were just an ordinary acquaintance Elsie's chattering stopped too she had clearly seen it as well we should go over there she said I hesitated Elsie he still doesn't know the truth about me when I met Chapman we were still in University following my family's instructions I kept a low profile leaving behind the privileged life I was used to trying to experience a few years of ordinary Freedom People Like Us

rarely have control over our own fate Chapman was the one Reckless decision I had made knowing it was bound to end badly I grabbed Elie's trembling hand and whispered forget it I'll handle this myself I had always been reserved with my emotions and even now I kept my composure like nothing had happened but I knew inside the pain was suffocating still I forced myself to act normal bid Elsie goodbye and just like when I first left home I rode my bicycle back to the apartment Chapman and I had rented together in late Autumn even walking

was enough to make a person shiver by the time I parked my bicycle in its designated spot the sky had already darkened dressed in a dark coat I blended into the dimly lit surroundings from there I had a clear view of Chapman stepping out of a pink Ferrari he was grinning sweetly as he spoke coaxing The woman Inside to step out and give him a passionate kiss they were Tangled Up in each other if I weren't his legitimate girlfriend maybe even I would have applauded their love story I didn't know how long I stood there

staring maybe I wasn't even watching at all when the pink Ferrari sped off its Tire splashed water from the roadside soaking me completely the freezing chill jolted me awake drenched and disheartened I dragged myself upstairs when I opened the door the usual warmth in Chapman's voice was gone only silence remained a silence so deep it felt like the darkness of the night was brewing something even more terrifying you're back the only light in the living room came from a small lamp its dim glow was enough for me to see Chapman clearly his refined features were

marred by an exhaustion he couldn't hide the cigarette between his fingers flickered in the dim light and at his feet was a pile of burnout cigarette butts don't smoke so much I said all right he responded softly I stood at the entryway not stepping further inside do you love her it was the only question I had left about our relationship because just last night we had been Tangled in each other's arms lost in passion nothing about it seemed like the actions of someone who had fallen out of love Chapman let out a low chuckle his

voice both careless and heavy love he gestured toward the window the city lights of a city Shone even brighter than the daytime dazzling and extravagant I love you glattus but that won't help me survive in this city your beauty your personality none of it matters in the face of wealth and power but her she can help me Chapman's voice grew lower his gaze darkened for a fleeting second but then he quickly regained his gentle Dem if I relied only on myself who knows how long it would take to carve out a place for myself here

the fist I had clenched behind my back suddenly relaxed a deep Indescribable disappointment settled in my chest I had thought he had simply fallen out of love that maybe I could understand what she had that I didn't but it turned out to be something so simple she could offer him wealth and status in the city and just like that the confession I had planned for tonight no longer seemed necessary the pure love I had vowed to my family was now nothing more than a joke maybe it was my silence or maybe Chapman really didn't want

me clinging to him anymore he took off his Patek Philipe watch and placed it on the coffee table then pulled out the watch I had given him from his pocket he set them side by side I didn't understand his meaning she gave me a patch phip without batting an eye and yours where did you even buy this cheap knockoff a sharp pain stab sted through my chest I stro to the coffee table snatching up a custommade watch I had gone through endless trouble to order without another word without sparing him another glance I could hear

the disdain in his voice this man was already rotten to the core throw away everything else that belongs to me I said then I stepped out into the darkness the apartment complex we had rented wasn't new but it wasn't old either I glanced back at the place I had once called home let out a soft laugh then I took out my phone I lost Clyde come pick me up a s side came from the other end love is only pure when material needs are fully met mom dad and I were never trying to hurt you

I kicked at a loose Stone on the ground neither agreeing nor refuting his words maybe Clyde was right but wealth had also tainted Chapman's love he didn't love me enough nor did he love her enough but now that had nothing to do with me anymore Clyde arrived quickly this time he didn't drive his usual Cayenne but a sleek black luxury van I didn't have time to wonder why the chilly night air urged me into the car a tissue was handed to me I wiped away the single tear that had escaped my eye not looking back

I accept the arranged marriage I'll marry Delbert a deep chuckle came from the back seat Miss gladus then we can register as a legal couple tomorrow a chill ran down my spine I slowly turned my head and met a familiar yet unfamiliar face the boy I once knew had shed all traces of his youthful awkwardness in his place was a man exuding Authority and nobility a far cry from the boy who once struggled to speak standard Mandarin I forced a stiff smile and like a fool added a wave of my hand you speak much better

English than when you were younger then I shut my mouth I wanted to slap myself back in the day when Delbert lived in a city his b City accent had made him the target of ridicule among the elite socialites even now despite his towering success I worried that his past would still irritate him I bit my lip in frustration staying silent but Delbert only chuckled his deep voice filled with Amusement well I'll never be as fluent as you after all I'm not from a city maybe one day I can teach some be City dialect in

return with just a few words he had effortlessly diffused my awkward jab the future I lifted my eyes to the rearview mirror and met delbert's gaze his sharp narrow eyes were filled with intensity and a sense of possession unyielding leaving no room for refusal suddenly I remembered something my brother Clyde once said love is only pure when material needs are fully met at that moment as I locked eyes with Delbert a strong curi osity surged within me how pure would his love be I wanted to know I wanted to test it so under his unwavering

gaze I nodded and softly said all right Clyde probably won't be able to pick you up today for the first time I caught a genuine smile in delbert's eyes I tilted my head why Delbert raised an eyebrow and pointed toward the sky your sister-in-law went abroad I nodded in understanding Clyde used to be a notorious Playboy refusing to settle down no one expected him to get forced into marriage and then end up falling in love after the fact but my sister-in-law she was truly something else every year she'd run away three or four times and

Clyde would chase after her like clockwork with our parents living in another city the only thing left in a city was an empty house I didn't want to go back turning my body slightly I looked at Delbert who was sitting in the back seat and put on a pitiful expression I'm homeless now what should I do Delbert adjusted his glasses glanced at me and spoke in a slow measured tone I won't let you be homeless but miss glattus I need you to go home and get your identification can we register our marriage tomorrow I froze

thinking he was joking earlier but now there was a weight to his words that made me take them seriously my hesitation made him lower his voice and repeat the question this time with a trace of impatience snapping out of my thoughts I quickly gave the driver my family home's address delbert's expression finally eased when we arrived at the Family Estate I suddenly hesitated I sat in the car twisting the Hem of my clothes reluctant to step out through the rearview mirror I met delbert's gaze again and reason slowly returned to me before I got into

your car I had just broken up Mr Delbert I his eyes in the dark carried a dangerous glint like a predator locking onto its prey I hesitated for a moment then gathered the courage to continue I wasn't planning on jumping into another relationship so soon delbert's gaze flickered and a smirk played at the corner of his lips I couldn't quite read his thoughts but I could hear his voice clearly this is just a business marriage miss glattus talking about love would be laughable I understood the unspoken message behind his words a sense of relief washed

over me but at the same time an odd feeling of unwillingness crept in unwilling about what I didn't know but still I stepped out of the car my expression calm as always only the force with which I shut the car door betrayed the emotions I couldn't quite name steuding my steps I unlocked the front door and walked in Janet our housekeeper opened the door for me in her pajamas she looked startled when she saw me as if she wanted to say something but held back it was obvious she didn't dare speak probably because I had

spent the last few days fighting with my family over my planned marriage to Chapman the worst fight happened just this morning for the first time in my life I smashed a glass in the house and voluntarily gave up half of my inheritance Clyde was so Furious he could barely stand straight before kicking me out he spat out I won't care about you anymore not long after I ran into Chapman at the mall now my disastrous evening was coming full circle pressing my fingers to my temple I sighed not a single thing had gone right today

but I hadn't forgotten why I was back lowering my voice I asked do you know where my ID is Janet's eyes widened in shock her expression turned wary Are you seriously sneaking back here in the middle of the night just to get your ID for that man do you want to drive your parents to their graves I don't know where it is and even if I did I wouldn't give it to you I stared at Janet momentarily stunned by how fiercely she was guarding the household registry where did she get the idea that I was

here to steal it I opened my mouth Janet I'm not I watched you grow up is it really worth breaking your family's heart over a man Janet's voice softened into a pleading tone but every time I tried to explain she cut me off I had always been patient with the elders who raised me so I I stood there with my head lowered enduring half an hour of her scolding I wondered if Delbert was still waiting for me sighing I finally decided to interrupt her just as I was about to speak a warm hand landed on

my shoulder a familiar pleasant voice followed long time no see Janet how have you been Janet now older squinted at him before reaching for her reading glasses wiping them and putting them on she studied Delbert closely Delbert it's me Miss Janet Janet broke into a smile and commented your English has improved a lot I couldn't help but let out a laugh then shot her pleading looks silently begging her to drop the subject clearly she didn't get the message but then her gaze shifted to the hand Delbert still had on my shoulder you too Delbert still

playing the role of a well-mannered junior replied obediently glattus and I came back to get her ID we registering our marriage tomorrow Janet turned to me really I sighed feeling a little helpless but nodded really the entire family had been pushing me to marry Delbert Janet was no exception now that I had confirmed it she immediately rushed to the study before long she returned and shoved my ID into delbert's hands then she shot me a warning look don't you dare take this from him Delbert I bit my tongue and stayed silent Delbert suppressing a laugh

accepted the ID with great seriousness don't worry I won't let her have it I'm taking her with me tonight and we'll register first thing in the morning good under Janet's watchful eyes we turned and left back in the car silence filled the space between us neither of us spoke not until the driver pulled into the underground parking lot of an upscale apartment complex in the city center I have no intention of having a marriage and name only miss gladus now alone in the elevator I faced Delbert directly I was taken aback but figured it was

best to clarify everything now that we were getting married nodding I met his gaze and said fine but I won't tolerate my husband having other women Delbert raised an eyebrow I continued in our circles that's not exactly uncommon is it arranged marriages heirs born out of Duty and lovers kept on the side it was all just part of the game as long as things never got messy Delbert controlled a business Empire holding the economic Lifeline of B City in his hands his May Mao in every High Society event across the country a man like him

would never lack admirers Delbert studied me as I frowned I'm serious all right we'll sign a contract of course it won't include premarital assets I stepped closer do you even realize what you're saying Delbert my wealth my everything I'm willing to share it with you at that moment Delbert was utterly captivating his deep dark eyes felt like they were pulling me in if we were getting married tomorrow then going a little too far tonight wouldn't matter I stood on my tiptoes and followed my heart pressing a kiss on his lips Delbert was too tall I

only managed to kiss his jaw a firm grip tightened around my waist Lifting me effortlessly in an instant I lost the right to breathe freely his kiss was forceful domineering even laced with a hint of aggression I could feel the faint sting of a small cut on my lips just as I neared Suffocation I pushed against him we both gasped for breath I was still in his arms our foreheads pressed together just then the elevator door slowly slid open his voice was husky tinged with an intoxicating allore we home do you want to go inside

I thought it was my imagination but his gaze carried an unexpected reverence as if I were a deity capable of passing judgment on his sins I tightened my arms around his neck letun go in you won't regret it I was more impatient than he was instead of answering I tucked him out of the elevator with barely any effort standing at his front door I chuckled softly I won't of course you still hav't until sunrise to change your mind his response was the soft click of a fingerprint lock the dimly lit room swallowed us I was

lifted again pressed against the wall kissed with a feverish intensity that night Delbert and I didn't cross the final line but short of that last step we did everything else imaginable by the time we were done it was deep into the night my clothes were no longer wearable I stood by the floor to ceiling window dressed in delbert's shirt gazing at the distant apartment complex the same complex where Chapman and I had lived together Delbert came up behind me wrapping his arms around my waist and lifting me into his Embrace settling us both onto the

balcony sofa what are you looking at his warm breath tickled my neck making me squirm in his arms I stared at him hesitating should I tell him the truth I pressed my lips together then finally raised a hand pointing at the complex I lived there for almost 2 years I took a deep breath and continued with my ex-boyfriend we just broke up today and now I'm here in your arms do you think I before I could finish his lips crashed onto mine in A Storm of kisses silencing me I had no choice but to endure

the possessiveness that belonged to Delbert alone only when I could no longer take it did he pull away calmly he extended his wrist showing me his watch I scratched my watch but it still tells time it's 3:00 a.m. you have 4 and a half hours to rest at 7:30 we're getting married tomorrow marks the beginning of your new life I'll allow you to be sad just for tonight I ran my fingers over the scratch on his watch a million-dollar time piece damaged when he lifted me at the door and he didn't even care just a

patch Philip meanwhile Chapman had used a watch to trample my dignity into the dirt I let out a quiet laugh and grasped delbert's hand I'll you a better one then I slipped his watch off his wrist and fastened it around mine I rummaged through my discarded clothes found the watch I had once prepared as a gift for Chapman and tossed it into the trash delbert's wrist was much thicker than mine and the watch slid up and down my arm under his watchful gaze I finished what I was doing then nestled back into his Embrace this

one let me have it that night it felt like I had lost something yet at the same time I had gained something far better unexpectedly I slept soundly the next morning when I opened my eyes I was no longer in delbert's apartment where is this I rubbed my eyes Delbert was looking at me the corner of his lips curled outside the government office I sat up with a jolt looking out the car window sure enough we were parked in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau the sun was already up and newly woods with beaming smiles

walked in and out of the building I glanced down at my sleepware then at Delbert who was impeccably dressed in a tailored suit stammering I asked you you expect me to get married dressed like this don't worry the makeup artist is in the car behind us your outfit is ready too you were sleeping too soundly I couldn't bear to wake you delbert's voice was gentle almost making me believe that he truly loved me I nodded then I'll go get ready for first Delbert stepped out of the car and said change into your clothes first the

door closed and the window blinds were drawn tightly ensuring no one outside could see in I picked up the simple white dress and slipped it on only to realize there was a carefully hidden Veil tucked inside Delbert had thought of everything this was far better than the Civil wedding I had once envisioned even when I held the marriage certificate in my hands it still felt surreal for so long I had thought the only person I'd ever walk into this place with was Chapman yet in just one day that person had changed and strangely I felt

a quiet Joy glattus I was staring at the marriage certificate when delbert's voice startled me I patted my chest steadying my breath what is it his expression held a hint of guilt I might need to make a trip back to B City do you want to come with me I pressed my lips together thinking for a moment spending our wedding night apart doesn't feel right does it Delbert laughed his whole demeanor softening he ruffled my hair indulgently then we'll go together after leaving the registry we headed straight to the airport boarding delbert's private jet just

before boarding my phone rang an unknown number I answered only to hear Chapman's weary voice on the other end I saw you at the airport where are you going I froze for a moment delbert's grip on my hand tightened who is it I hung up blocked the number and smiled at Delbert no one important when the plane landed everything in B City felt unfamiliar to me I had never been here before my only impression of B city was delbert's accent his voice was pleasant though in a city it had always seemed slightly out of place

in the car Delbert opened his laptop for a video conference absently rubbing his thumb against the back of my hand with nothing else to do I snapped a picture and posted it on social media Elsie immediately liked it and sent me a message why are you in B City I found out who that woman with Chapman was she's from B City oh my God I heard she's coming back today too are you going to confront her wait for me I'm booking a flight I Won't Let You Suffer alone Elsie had always had an overactive imagination

I touched the men's watch on my wrist and chuckled I sent her a photo you're overthinking just here for a trip with my husband the messages stopped then moments later my phone rang furiously I glanced at Delbert who was still in his meeting and hurridly rejected the call but Elsie wouldn't give up she kept calling answer it I covered the speaker won't it disturb you it won't go ahead with delbert's permission I finally picked up lowering the volume just in case Elsie shrill voice burst through your husband who did you marry you didn't just pick

someone random to piss off Chapman did you are you out of your mind I stole a glance at Delbert making sure he wasn't listening then exhaled softly my husband is Delbert lost in my conversation with Elsie I didn't notice Delbert still in his meeting was smiling as I explained everything to Elsie on the way I repeatedly reassured her that I was serious and not just doing this to spite Chapman only then did she finally relax after promising to come find me and be City in a couple of days she hung up the phone by the

time I ended the call the car had already stopped in the parking spot Delbert had long since finished his own call and was now resting his head on his hand watching me I had gotten used to Delbert looking at me like that sweetie Delbert narrowed his eyes slightly a smile playing at the corners of his lips as he called me wife my whole body froze it was like an electric current had run through my spine sending tingling waves across my skin I fought the urge to smile pretending to be Cal as I replied babe Delbert

clearly hadn't expected that response from me he clicked his tongue and immediately called the driver who had just left I couldn't understand what he was saying but before the driver had even exited the parking lot he turned back quickly got into the driver's seat and drove off again I looked at Delbert in confusion where are we going Delbert took my hand gently squeezing my knuckles as he said I was going to take you to the racetrack to pick out a pony but then I suddenly remembered this is our wedding night the most important thing hasn't

been done yet I wasn't some naive girl of course I knew exactly what the most important thing on a wedding night was I didn't say anything but my fingers couldn't helped teasingly scratching his palm delbert's house in B city was an estate far more luxurious than the penthouse he had in a city it was obvious that his place in a city was just a temporary residence but the estate was too big and delbert's patience seemed to shrink with every step we took by the time we stumbled into the bedroom lips locked and Tangled together Delbert

suddenly growled I need to change houses it was an oddly timed comment one that should have ruined the mood but instead it sent a shiver down my spine fine I ran my fingers along his waist and stomach trying to provoke him further but as our movements grew more intimate I realized something Delbert was inexperienced the realization shocked me I cued his face and asked you've never had a girlfriend before the ever composed man was now sweating his eyes flickering away in embarrassment I refused to let him look away look at me Delbert lifted his gaze

his dark eyes drowning in desire his voice was horse his whole being trembling like a puppy pulled out of water drenched pitiful yet irresistible I felt a ringing in my ears but I still heard him clearly with a voice so beautiful it could steal a soul he whispered I only love you for so many years it's only ever been you my heart trembled I almost couldn't believe it but at the moment I gave myself to him completely Clyde's words surfaced in my mind when you have enough material wealth love becomes pure and as I thought

about how Delbert had been exiled to a city and had to fight his way back to be city alone a dull ache spread through my chest I started crying Delbert immediately panicked quickly grabbing tissues to wipe my tears don't cry if you don't want this we'll stop it wasn't that I didn't want to I pulled him closer refusing to let him go you could see my old apartment from your place in a city you bought that place on purpose didn't you I felt his entire body tense up we had only truly been together for two

days yet now my mind was flooded with images of delbert's loneliness in a city and the struggles he faced returning to be City I didn't fully understand everything but I had remembered every word Clyde had told me back then I had only thought I was looking out for a childhood friend but now thinking back I realized that somewhere along the way delbert's pain had carved deep scars in my heart I leaned into him embracing everything I want this Delbert I've always wanted this of course embracing everything came with a price I ended up stuck in

bed for five whole days even today when we finally went out Delbert had to carry me I'm taking you to pick a pony he said after 5 days in bed I had learned quite a few things for example B City had a prestigious Racetrack and Delbert was on its board of directors and every horse own at the racetrack was a person of power wealth or both simply put anyone in the country who had business ties to be City dreamed of becoming a horse owner but it wasn't easy the entrance V alone was exorbitant and you

needed recommendations from at least 100 current horse owners the money was the easy part the real challenge was networking even then a final review by the board of directors determined whether someone could officially become a horse owner it was an exclusive cut throat process so does that mean it'll be hard for me to become a horse owner I yawned leaning into delbert's Embrace Delbert wiped the lingering tears from my nap away and playfully pinched my nose not at all you own half of my fortune plus you have both me and Clyde vouching for you who

would dare say no to you that made me sit up straight Clyde is a horse owner too no he's a board member that confused me why would Clyde a businessman from a city be involved in B City's Affairs but after knowing this I felt reassured and lazily snuggled back into delbert's arms waiting until we arrived at the racetrack to pick out a horse what I didn't expect was to see someone there Chapman was standing at the entrance holding an umbrella for a woman his posture was stiff so rigid he looked more like a security guard

than the actual guards nearby the moment Delbert appeared the woman quickly approached and introduced herself I caught a few words she wanted to become a horse owner behind her Chapman stared at me his eyes dark and unreadable Delbert definitely knew who Chapman was but for whatever reason he let Chapman and the woman follow us in I tugged at his wrist lowering my voice what are you doing Delbert glanced at me after making sure there were no strange emotions in my eyes he let out a relieved breath they bullied you I want to get revenge for

you I was stunned for a moment before wrapping my arms around his well then thank you babe it had only been a week since I last saw Chapman and yet seeing him again stirred absolutely nothing in me the Heartbreak I had felt before now seemed like nothing more than a fleeting illusion still I held on to a lingering resentment the way we broke up had been too humiliating watching him make a fool of himself today would be his form of apology I didn't know much about horses but Delbert was an expert under his advice I

picked a stunning Pure White Horse with a golden Sheen under the sunlight beautiful and Noble the woman behind us showered me with flattery while Chapman's eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets there was Envy there was jealousy and there was something else something that looked a lot like hatred I didn't understand Chapman's stare but I chose to ignore it Delbert as always was thoughtful he smiled gently at me I had an equestrian outfit prepared for you go change and I'll take Miss Kate upstairs for a meeting once I'm back I'll teach you how to ride

I nodded so the woman's name was Kate with that in mind I followed the staff to delbert's private changing room but as soon as I stepped out I ran into Chapman smoking in a corner you're not with Miss Kate smoking is prohibited here I pointed at the no smoking sign my tone indifferent like I was making small talk with a stranger Chapman silently stubbed out his cigarette and tossed it in the trash why didn't you answer my calls that day did you block me I frowned already annoyed we broken up I don't want to be

in contact with you anymore broken up Chapman scoffed without you I've been miserable glattus I can't sleep I can't eat I rolled my eyes gripping my phone tightly in case I needed to call Delbert Chapman continued I really miss you can we get back together don't degrade yourself like this these rich men they're just playing with us I don't know how he figured out that I had given up on myself looking at Chapman's sorrowful gaze I suddenly remembered that I had never been honest with him from the start I pointed at the patch Philipe on

his wrist and mocked isn't this watch enough for you are you thinking of switching it for some cheap knockoff that I don't even know where you bought as I stretched out my hand the watch on my wrist delbert's watch was clearly visible Chapman reached out and grabbed my rest his eyes fixed on the watch he only gave you a scratched up watch and that's enough to make you follow him willingly maybe he gave you something else you have no dignity you've really hit rock bottom haven't you Chapman's grip was so tight that my bones ate

and I couldn't break free his frenzied gaze even scared me a little it was as if he felt like his possessions were being tainted by someone else the desire for Destruction spreading across his eyes let go of me I lowered my voice and slapped him across the face the sound was crisp and immediately Chapman's face flushed red you broke up with me to climb the social ladder in a city and I didn't say anything now you come back to bother me Chapman have some decency decency delbert's married it's a business marriage and you a mistress

don't know the meaning of decency looking at Chapman's Twisted expression really made me want to laugh in anger I gathered all my strength to shake off his hand grabbed my phone and called Delbert the phone was picked up quickly baby come to the dressing room door I've been slandered as a mistress I hung up right after Chapman was still in shock and I turned to enter the dressing room locking the door behind me to calm down I stared at my feet breathing hard but still felt UNS satisfied I opened the door again peaked out and

when I saw Chapman still standing there I went out and kicked him hard he wasn't prepared and fell straight to the ground scumbag what's going on Delbert walked up behind me and took my hand I explained everything to him and it was obvious that Delbert was angry he stared coldly at Chapman do you know that defamation and slander are illegal Delbert fiercely pulled me behind him and for some reason Chapman also braced himself and started to confront Delbert you're already married Mr Delbert my girlfriend is Young you can't just manipulate her like that Delbert took

off his glasses and placed them in my hand before pushing me aside he told me not to get close I grabbed his hand and shook my head don't be impulsive Chapman was already Beyond Redemption and I wouldn't let him stir up any more feelings in me what I was really worried about was ber getting hurt Delbert crouched down and looked at me that day when you cried in my car my heart almost broke let me get revenge on him okay he patiently lowered his gaze waiting for my answer meanwhile Chapman standing behind Delbert kept provoking

us with harsh words let go of Her She's Mine we've been together for 6 years gladus are you really going to be a mistress to a married man I took a deep breath I thought Chapman would understand once he heard how I addressed Delbert but unfortunately he didn't I hugged Delbert and buried my face in his chest rubbing against him don't get hurt Delbert patted my back and pulled me away from him then threw a heavy punch right at Chapman's head how dare you say you were together for 6 years I put up with you

for 6 years fine I can accept that you were good to her but I can let go but you you cheated and you have the audacity to be Shameless about it with those three lines Delbert landed three punches on Chapman Chapman couldn't fight back but his gaze was still full of Fury I grabbed delbert's arm my voice choking enough Chapman his marriage is with me you already have another woman let's just part ways peacefully please don't come bother me again Chapman's eyes were wide open in disbelief as he kept shaking his head I looked at

delbert's hand to make sure it wasn't hurt then composed myself and turned back to face Chapman I fought for my right to choose my marriage I was going to tell you that day I didn't have the chance Chapman I kept my family a secret from you and you cheated we owe each other nothing please don't disturb me again Chapman's eyes suddenly went cold but I knew it wasn't because he loved me it was because of my background as a wealthy arys Chapman collapsed to the ground and I didn't want to see him anymore I grabbed

delbert's hand and turned to leave Delbert with his hand still aching from the punch made a pitiful face it hurts so much he was acting so helpless so I played along seriously inspecting his hand it was definitely red and must have hurt I gently blew on it then rubbed it scolding him I told you not to do anything you just had to hold back Delbert pulled me into to his arms he made you cry I wasn't happy but it's okay from now on I'll make you happy when Delbert said he would make me happy it

wasn't just empty words in B City I spent over a month and not a single day was without Joy especially on the day he proposed he went all out at first I thought it was just a normal Campbell at dinner but when the fireworks went off over Victoria Harbor Delbert kneeled before me his eyes were full of devotion and he only had a small version of me in his hand I've loved you for so many years we will have many many more years together will you marry me I extended my hand waiting for him to

slip the ring on my finger I believed that he loved me and I believed I was worthy of love being held by Delbert kissed passionately I responded just as eagerly Clyde wasn't back from abroad but as soon as he heard we had registered our marriage he sent me a wedding gift it was a will that he had signed with Delbert even though Delbert was so young and even though we hadn't been together then he had already given me most of his fortune Clyde said he didn't understand why Delbert loved me so much when I had

little connection to him I didn't understand either so when he proposed I asked him Delbert took my hand our fingers interlaced are the fireworks beautiful they're beautiful his gaze softened as if reminiscing about the past when I first arrived in a city there was a little girl who took my hand and welcomed me she complimented my accent saying it sounded lovely back then I thought this little girl is so beautiful more beautiful than the most brilliant fireworks the end
