Marrying My Childhood Friends’ Older Brother

Nancy kept creating trouble as the wedding date got nearer. Every time she flew into a temper, the Sinclair brothers would torture me just to cheer her up. It drained me mentally and emotionally. I was really exhausted.

I might have promised Cole not to reveal that I was getting married to him, but I still decided to stop running after the Sinclair brothers and begging them to love me.

When I pushed the door open, Nancy was twirling while dressed in my wedding gown.

Ryan and Luke were smiling at her. Their love for her was so obvious.

They pursed their lips at the same time when I entered.

"Didn't you pretend to pass out to get hospitalized? You acted like you had anemia and refused to donate your blood this morning."

"Why are you home so soon? Worried about missing the wedding tomorrow?"

"Come on, Paige. Why won't you just give up? You're really disgusting."

Nancy's cunning smile suddenly disappeared from her face as she started to tug on the wedding gown she was wearing. "I'm so sorry, Paige. I'm just really envious of you. It's wrong of me to put on your wedding gown. Please don't hit me. I won't do it again…"

She cried and kneeled on the floor, ruining the wedding gown my grandmother had custom-made for me before she passed away.

I tried to stop her from kneeling, but Nancy only cried harder. "I didn't do it on purpose. Ryan and Luke wanted to see what I looked like in a wedding gown. I'll take it off right now. Please don't throw me out undressed like before. I'm really scared."

The eyes of the Sinclair brothers widened as they looked at me with hatred.

"You're a woman too, Paige. How could you do that to Nancy?"

"Don't you have any empathy? If we hadn't seen through your schemes, Nancy would have been bullied to death by an animal like you."

"Do you think nothing will happen to you just because we're engaged, Paige? We'll make sure you become the laughingstock of the city at the wedding tomorrow."

My emotions were in turmoil as I looked straight at them. "Both of you don't need to worry about my wedding. My grandmother left this gown to me as my wedding present. It's my personal belonging. None of you have any right to touch it. Give the wedding gown to me, Nancy."

Nancy hid behind the Sinclair brothers with reddened eyes. Her arm swept against the red wine on the table, and the white gown was instantly dyed red.

Ryan scoffed and tore the stained wedding gown to pieces.

"Human hearts are easily dirtied, and so is this thing. Only garbage has the right to cherish garbage."

I was enraged and reached out to pick up the pieces that were flung to the floor.

Nancy quickly moved away when she saw this. She tripped on herself, and her head knocked into the corner of the table. She passed out after that.

The Sinclair brothers quickly rushed forward to carry Nancy in their arms when they saw this.

"How can you do this to your sister just because you want to marry us, Paige?"

"We won't let you off if anything happens to Nancy."

They ran out of the door with Nancy after that.

Nancy's head was facing me while she was in Ryan's arms. She opened her eyes slightly and smiled as she mouthed, "You lost."

Her action reminded me of the humiliation I felt the past few days, and I could not take it any longer. I rushed forward to grab Nancy's hair.

"I told you that she's wearing my wedding gown. It doesn't matter to me where you're going, but you need to leave the gown behind before you leave!"

Ryan was carrying Nancy, and Luke tried to pull my hand off.

"This is just something an old woman left behind. What does it matter that Nancy tried it on?"

"Aren't you planning to wear it to marry us? I'm telling you right now that's not possible, Paige Edwards!"
