Chapter 4

"He just made you wait a few hours, who are you giving that cold shoulder?"

Chloe has always been sullen to me.

I didn't give in to her and went to open the door. "You're right, I'm not getting married."

But she quickly ordered the bridesmaids to block the door. "You can't open the door now! We have to wait for the groom to open it!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ryan’s mother, Linda Thompson called. "Emily, what's wrong with you! It's already so late and you haven't come to the wedding yet?"

"I told you not to play those frivolous wedding games, but you had to torture my son to death?"

Did she really think I was the one holding Ryan back from the wedding? I almost laughed out loud. "Why don't you ask your son what he's doing first?"

Linda was silent for a second, her tone growing even more hostile. "You don't care about your fiancé, but you're ordering me, your mother-in-law, around? If you miss the auspicious time, you'll never marry into the Thompson Family again!"

"You're always so sarcastic. Megan is more generous and decent than you are. She's worthy of being my daughter-in-law!"

Before I could say anything, she hung up the phone.

Chloe immediately sarcastically said. "It seems my brother has finally come to his senses. Some people, after seducing men through sex, can't keep them."

This family is simply unbearable. "Chloe! Shut up!"

It was Ryan who had been pursuing me relentlessly after seeing me dance at the school anniversary party.

I wouldn't have paid attention to a wealthy young man like him.

For two years, he used all sorts of tricks to coax me into being with him.

Not to mention the luxury goods he brought me. On my birthday, he used drones to create a mosaic of my profile and set off fireworks worth millions.

He even climbed Mount Everest and, holding the national flag at the summit, knelt down and confessed his love for me.

But I remained unmoved.

It wasn't until I twisted my ankle during dance practice and he carried me to the hospital, tears streaming down his face, that I finally agreed to be with him.

How did others describe me as seducing him?

What's more, today was the day the bride was picked up and I, the bride, had been left hanging for hours. What right did they have to blame me?

I suppressed my anger and glared coldly at Chloe. "Get out of the way!"

Several bridesmaids, frightened by my presence, tried to make way, but Chloe blocked the doorway.

"If you have the guts, tell my brother in person! If I let you get away now, how will we explain it to him when he asks?"

I had already made it clear to Ryan in the video.

I pushed her aside and reached for the door.

Chloe panicked and frantically called Ryan. Unlike me, Ryan picked up the phone within two seconds of ringing.

Chloe's voice immediately broke into tears:

"Ryan! Emily is running away from the marriage and is mad at me. She almost hit me! Please, do something about it!"

I was almost laughing with anger.

Chloe's expression changes so quickly, it's a shame she doesn't act.

Ryan consoled her briefly, then glared at me coldly. "Emily, you can even make a cheerful girl like Chloe cry? Can you please stop?"

"All the Thompson Family friends and family are here today and you're embarrassing me. I never thought you were so unpresentable before, really."

Sure enough, without thinking, he accused me of being a troublemaker. I pursed my lips. "I said I wasn't getting married and asked her to open the door and let me go. Is that considered a tantrum?"

He was silent for a moment, then suddenly snapped.

"Alright! I lost this game and my rank has dropped. Are you satisfied now?"

"So annoying! Stand still! I'll be right up!"
