Chapter 2
The appetizers had already been served.
I picked up an olive and popped it into my mouth.
It was sickeningly sour, almost bitter.
Jensen gave the dress to Mina.
She gleefully went backstage to change into it.
When she walked back out, the entire room erupted in applause.
The dress had been custom-tailored to my exact measurements.
Mina was shorter and thinner than me. On her, the dress hung loose and baggy, the hem dragging uselessly
across the floor.
Yet Jensen’s eyes were filled with pure awe. “Mina, you’re so beautiful.”
Beside them, my mother wiped away her tears. “Oh, this is just perfect. Your late mother would be so at
peace seeing this.””
Mina held up the skirt, leaning coyly into Jensen’s chest. “Jensen, will Everlee be mad at me? This was supposed to be her wedding, but I took her place.”
Jensen stroked her hair, his voice incredibly tender. “No, Everlee isn’t that petty. She knows you’re sick. She gave up the wedding for you willingly. See? She even brought the dress over herself.”
Jensen pointed right at me.
Every eye in the room locked onto me.
Mina covered her mouth, her eyes welling with tears. “Everlee, do you really not blame me?”
My mother marched over and ripped the silverware out of my hand. “Today is Mina’s big day. Who are you
pulling that miserable face for?”
“Since you’re here, go pour a glass of wine and wish them a long life together.”
I stared up at my mother. “Mom, today was supposed to be my big day too.”
My mother froze for a second, then dismissed it with an impatient wave of her hand.
“You and Jensen have been together for ages now. Why make a fuss over all this ceremonial nonsense?”

‘Don’t you know how severe Mina’s depression is? The doctor said she could try to end her life at any
moment.”
“You’re perfectly fine. What’s the big deal about letting her have this? Do you have to drive her to her death to
be happy?”
Aunt Patricia walked over too, offering her unsolicited advice.
“Everlee, I’m not trying to criticize you here. But you have got everything going for you-you have your own
studio, you’re not lacking a thing. But Mina has no one but Jensen.”
“Why do women have to make life so difficult for one another? Just be a little generous.”
“Exactly. We’re a family. Don’t make such an ugly scene over a man,” Imogen chimed in.
I looked at all these relatives.
They stood there so confidently, so full of righteousness, telling me to hand over my wedding dress, my wedding, my fiancé.
Simply because I was strong, and because I didn’t lack anything.
Jensen walked over as well.
He looked down at me, his brow heavily furrowed.
“Everlee, what’s wrong with you today? Aren’t you usually reasonable?”
“Mina is about to cry. Hurry up and apologize to her. Tell her you’re not angry.”
I stared at Jensen.
We had been together for seven years.
He knew that to prepare for this wedding, I had pulled overtime for two straight weeks.
He knew that since I was a child, what I wanted most was a home of my own.
Yet now, he wanted me to apologize to the person who stole my groom.
I stood up and picked up a glass of red wine from the table.
Jensen’s expression shifted, and he instantly stepped in front of Mina to shield her. “Everlee, what are you
trying to do? Don’t do something stupid.”
He thought I was going to throw the wine.

He was guarding against me.
Looking at him, I felt nothing but exhaustion.
I raised the glass and drained it in one gulp.
“I wish you both a long and happy marriage.”
I set the glass down and turned to walk out.
Behind me, Mina’s timid voice drifted over. “Jensen, is Everlee still mad at me? Should I not have worn this
dress?”
Jensen cooed softly to comfort her. “Don’t worry about her. She’s just stubborn. She’ll get over it in a couple
of days.”
