On the Eve of My Wedding, I Discovered Her BetrayalChapter 1
Before my marriage to my fiancée, I stumbled upon her browsing a jewelry store with a young man.
From a distance, I watched as she playfully tried on an engagement ring I had custom-made and paid a hefty sum for, all under the teasing of the store clerks.
When confronted, she said, "He just thought the ring was pretty and wanted to try it on. Can't you be more magnanimous?"
Later, that man posted a photo online of the ring on his ring finger.
[Though I cannot fully possess you in this life, to have your favor is more than enough for me.]
…
As the workday wound down, Isabel Hill, my fiancée, texted me: [Ethan, I've booked a popular restaurant. I'll pick you up after work.]
This was the first message she sent me after our argument over her publicly adorning another man with a ring.
I recognized it as her subtle way of conceding, but I chose to ignore it.
Issues of principle are not something to be taken lightly.
In the past, I was always easy to appease.
After every quarrel, she would give me the silent treatment for a few days.
Once my anger subsided, she would reason with me.
