The Shadow Groom's Final Regret

The night before our wedding, I heard my fiancé, Raymond, promise another woman that he would make me the laughingstock of the entire city on our big day.

He had taken all my savings and built his firm with my money.

Yet in the end, he was plotting how to humiliate me, hoping to force me into calling off the wedding myself.

I didn't cry, and I didn't make a scene.

This wedding was off.

Raymond thought I was just throwing another temper tantrum, waiting for me to lower my head and beg for peace like I always did.
