Search engines overflowed with clips of him kneeling, screaming Emily’s name. The superstar was trending everywhere, not for his fame or fortune, but for his heartbreak.Later that day, in a massive venue packed with reporters, anchors, and flashing cameras, Charles strode onto the stage. He wore a pristine white suit, his presence commanding, his face effortlessly handsome like a Greek god carved in marble. His walk was unhurried, his aura cool and controlled.

Her eyes burned with tears she refused to let fall.Warren dragged Emily toward his car, his grip possessive, his madness unrelenting. “Come on, love. Our honeymoon starts now. Forget him. He’s nothing. You chose me, remember?” His voice was both triumphant and broken, as if he couldn’t believe his victory was real.Emily’s heart twisted as she glanced back at the church façade.

Her lips trembled as she whispered so softly only she could hear, “Forgive me, Charles…”Warren’s car sped away into the day.Inside, the priest and his assistant rushed to help Charles stand. His body staggered under the weight of pain, but his eyes burned with fury. He pulled out his phone, his voice sharp and commandi

    “I said skip to it, Father! Finish this ceremony right now!” Warren barked, his voice echoing through the church. He didn’t care what Emily said anymore. He didn’t want to waste time. For him, the only thing that mattered was marrying her today so Charles could never take her away.The priest’s hands trembled as he lifted the book.

    The gunshot echoed like thunder.For a moment, no one moved. The room froze in silence, every breath held. Nancy’s trembling hands lowered slightly, her eyes wide, her face pale. The gun slipped from her grip and clattered to the floor.Charles stood still, his forehead untouched, his chest rising and falling with steady breaths. Emily clung to him, her heart pounding so hard she thought it might burst.Then the chaos broke. The old man’s men rushed forward, seizing Nancy before she could reach for the weapon again.
