I looked at him through the bloody mist, and my body grew colder and colder.
“Ryan, I’ve already said it—the wedding is canceled!”
Whack!
He slapped me in the face with a fierce look in his eyes.
He exuded a cold and hard aura.
“Emma, I’ll say it again! Know your place!”
“Even if you want to break up, you have to get through today. You can’t let Vanessa think she’s the reason for our divorce! She will be sad!”
I was almost laughing out of anger.
I couldn’t believe we needed someone else’s approval to hold our wedding.
I couldn’t believe we needed her approval to cancel it.
It was just ridiculous!
I threw off the clothes and was about to speak.
Ryan touched the ring on his finger.
A sweet smile instantly appeared on his face. I knew without thinking that it was a gift from Vanessa.
He wanted to hold a wedding banquet with me wearing a wedding ring given by another woman.

As if noticing my gaze, he glanced at me coldly and said, “Emma, disobey me again, and I will throw you out of the car, tie you up behind, and drag you over there just like that. You know I can do this.”
My heart felt stabbed.
I believed that he would really do so.

Ryan raised the corners of his lips in satisfaction.
The InterContinental Hotel was the most luxurious hotel in Chicago.
The car soon arrived at the hotel entrance.
Ryan booked the whole place. All kinds of flowers that Vanessa liked were placed outside the door.

face.
“Stop pretending! A little injury won’t kill you, hurry up!”
Ryan grabbed my hand in annoyance and dragged me inside.
He was afraid that Vanessa would wait too long.
I stumbled.
The wound on my forehead seemed to start bleeding again.
It wasn’t long before the gauze was soaked through.
Ryan looked at me with disdain. His expression became increasingly gloomy.
In the hall, all the guests were surrounding Vanessa.
They are all Ryan’s colleagues and friends.
As soon as Ryan and I appeared, the originally lively place suddenly
became silent
Everyone looked at each other.
Someone shouted first.
“Mr. Mitchell.”
“Ryan, Emma, you are here?”
Everyone had a smile on their face.
Yet, the scene felt very eerie.
As soon as Ryan got inside, he left me on my own and walked to Vanessa.
