In my previous life, it was on the day of our wedding.
Chapter 20
Upon learning that we were getting married, Femma couldn’t accept it and jumped into the sea to end her life.
She left behind only a letter and a short video.
“Jude, I have no choice but to consider you my brother–in–law, but I love you. I truly can’t bring myself to say it out loud.“}
“I really envy my sister. She can win your heart without even trying, while my luck always seems to fall just a little short.” “Jude, if there really is a next life, let me be the one to marry you.”
But because Deyna couldn’t stand her fake, manipulative behavior, she thought Femma was being overly dramatic and attention–seeking.)
So she stopped Jude from responding and insisted on going ahead with the wedding.
No one would have thought that Femma really did jump into the sea.
By the time the wedding was over, her body had already been pulled from the water, cold and lifeless.”
But this time…
Jude couldn’t bear to watch her die with his own eyes.
The moment he received the video from Femma, his eyes turned bloodshot and he rushed out without hesitation.”
If this had been in my previous life, perhaps I would’ve felt wronged and heartbroken.}]
But after living through two lifetimes, not only was I calm, I even let out a long sigh of relief.”
This time, I would choose the groom I wanted to marry.
“Yosef, if you want to marry me too, then come up here. Today, this wedding belongs to the two of us.”
Yosef smiled and held my hand tightly. He said, “Alright.”
The whole venue instantly erupted.
Jude’s group of close friends exchanged glances from below the stage, unable to hold back from texting him.”
[Bro, I think you’ve really messed up this time. Your bride’s about to marry someone else.]}]
“Wasn’t it said that Leona was hopelessly obsessed with Jude? That she was head over heels and insisted on marrying him no matter what? How come the groom just changed?“}
‘And of all people, she picked that notorious playboy crown prince, Yosef.“{
Could it be that Jude ditching the wedding made her mad, so she randomly grabbed some guy to get revenge?“}
As they watched Yosef and me, hand in hand, walking toward the wedding altar, whispers spread like wildfire among the guests.
Yosef’s hand trembled slightly as he held mine, his head lowered a bit.”
knew why they were talking.
Yosef had always carried a bad reputation–not only did he frequent all kinds of exclusive clubs, he was constantly involved in scandals with actresses and female celebrities.
His reputation had long been tarnished in the social circles.
Even the most prominent socialites refused to marry him.
There were even rumors that his chaotic private life had led him to contract HIV.
But I knew that wasn’t the real him.
‘Leona, are you acting on impulse?“}
The man beside me suddenly withdrew his hand.
Yosef lowered his voice and asked me, “If you’re using me to regain face, I’ll help you. But… don’t destroy your own happiness for the sake of anger.”}}
looked at him with a twinge of pain, about to offer some comforting words when suddenly, someone rushed in.§
With one powerful kick, the hotel door was flung open.
‘Leona, stop fooling around! You can’t just change the groom like that! Hurry up and come over here!“}]
My dad must have heard the news and rushed over in a hurry.
When the guests saw my dad, they all stood up in respect, some even stepping forward to flatter him.
But his face was filled with anger, his gaze stern as he fixed it on me.
‘What are you standing there for? Didn’t you hear what I said?“}
Yosef furrowed his brows slightly, even softly urging me.”
‘Go on, don’t make your dad uncomfortable.”
stood still, unmoving.
When I was younger, I had always been afraid of this expression on his face. Every time he showed it, I would instinctively become obedient.
