Love Like an AbyssChapter 1
On the day of my wedding, my fiancé live-streamed his proposal to my cousin. The two of them eloped right then and there, leaving me behind to become the infamous jilted bride.
Lost and desperate, Brian Rocha, the wealthiest man in Harbor City, stepped onto the stage and knelt before me on one knee.
“Angela Duncan, I fell in love with you the moment I saw you at the Gala Auction. Will you marry me?”
I politely declined, but he refused to back down. From that moment on, he pursued me relentlessly. On my birthday, he went so far as to spend millions renting every advertisement screen in the city, all to boldly profess his love for me. Three years later, I finally agreed to his proposal.
That day, I became the woman everyone envied, the one who must have saved the galaxy in her past life to deserve a man like him. But on the eve of our engagement, I overheard him talking to his friends and it shattered everything.
“You’re crazy, man, spending tens of thousands of dollars buying a building for your first love. As a friend, I just want to remind you that she’s already married to your fiancée’s ex.”
