Realization finally dawned upon Stefan, and he found himself not knowing how to react.


    ‘How did this woman draw the conclusion that I’m sad?’


    ’I did look gloomy just now, but it wasn’t because of Cecilia.’


    Instead, he was simply reminiscing about his marriage with Renee. He realized that the entire event


    was too rushed and dismissive. There wasn’t a single thing that could be considered a good memory.


    Regretting hisck of attention then, he even went as far as to n a whole new wedding in his head,


    hoping that he could get back together with the woman someday…


    However, he obviously wouldn’t tell her the truth. On the contrary, he took the chance to mess with


    Renee. Putting up a perplexed face, he said,’ Yeah, I’m so upset that my heart hurts, and I’m so angry


    at the fact that they would do this to me! What do I do?”


    This made Renee sympathize with the man even more, patting him on the head asfort. “Don’t be


    sad, cheer up… In my opinion, the best revenge is to live a better life than them, and to experience a


    sweeter love than them!”


    But I don’t have that…” Stefan pouted. ‘ My rtionship was aplete failure. Everyone knows we’re


    divorced, and that you’ve been fooling around with that Osborne kid! I’m so embarrassed; it’s like I


    came here to beughing stock!”


    ‘Don’t worry. I promised I’d help you out today! As my ex-husband, your image affects mine too. I can’t


    have you looking like a loser…”


    Cecilia was watching the whole time as the two whispered into each other’s ears. Although she was


    smiling sweetly while ying bonus games with Christopher, her heart felt bitter.


    ‘Didn’t they get a divorce? I heard it ended quite badly too! Why are they still so intimate with each


    other? How could they hold hands at a time like this!’ She thought, yet was unable to express her


    frustrations.


    ‘Stef, don’t just stand so far away! You know how much we longed for your blessings…” Cecilia called


    out to the man. “It’s almost time for the group photo. I hope the three of us can take a picture together.”


    Everyone looked rather ufortable when they saw the bride being so reckless, as if she just


    couldn’t read the room.


    ‘Of course she’d have a chokehold on her ex and her fiance! They’ve been pampering her throughout


    their entire friendship, after all!’


    Stefan raised a brow, not showing much emotion as he responded. “Sure.”


    Just then, Renee raised her hand and eximed. ‘I’d like to join in too! I’m quite close with Stef, after


    all! How could I miss out on such a happy moment?”


    Cecilia clenched her fists, putting up a fake smile as she indirectly tried taunting the woman. “Wouldn’t


    it be inappropriate for ex-spouses to take a photo together?’


    ‘So what if we’re divorced? We’re just switching up our rtionship! Honestly, our bond has only gotten


    stronger. That’s why I’ll go wherever he goes!” Renee said as she pridefully looked toward Stefan.


    She was trying to show him that she was a woman of her word and that she had her ways of saving his


    dignity.


    Cecilia was visibly annoyed now, replying. “We have a special rtionship with Stef, and we’ve known


    him for much longer. That’s why I still hope just the three of us can have a photo together. I’d like to


    keep it tomemorate this da…”


    ‘There’s no need for that,” came Stefan’s cold interruption.


    This made Cecilia’s eyes redden, as she gazed into the man’s eyes. “Stef, do you still hate Chris and


    me? Is this why you’re saying this on purpose?”


    “You’ve never been able to move on from this, haven’t you?”


    Her questioning only made the tense atmosphere worsen.


    Xavier quickly moved closer to Cecilia, whispering under his breath. ’Cecy, everyone’s watching!


    Please don’t be like this!’


    The groom, however, seemed rather calm in this situation. A mysterious smile was nted across his


    face, as Christopher spoke up. “Why don’t we all take a group photo? That’d be more memorable,


    right?”


    Now that Christopher had stepped in, Cecilia realized she was acting out of line. Hence, she merely


    tightened her grip, not daring to say anything more.


    The photographer then instructed everyone to pose, mostly focusing on the newlyweds. “Don’t be so


    shy now, you little lovebirds! Come on, show us some love! It’ll be even better if you could kiss for the


    camera! Then this photo would be all the more unforgettable!”


    However, the two looked as if they harbored resentment towards each other, and refused to do as


    advised.


    Just then, Stefan suddenly cupped Renee’s face with both hands…

    ‘Like this…?” … and started kissing her deeply.
