“Have you fallen in love with him?” he asked, as if he really wanted to hear the
answer.
Kate took the initiative to hold Harry’s hand, speaking with a firm tone. “Yes. I have fallen in love with him and I’m planning to marry him.”
Those words were like a swarm of ants crawling over Dave, biting at his heart.
He had never imagined that one day he would witness her falling in love with another man. It was as if he could suddenly feel the taste of betrayal.
What had Kate been thinking during those moments when she pretended to be
oblivious, setting up dates with him and
Leona?
Before Dave could react, Kate pulled Harry along and walked toward the other side.

had set the date. Three months later, they would return to the country to get married.
Harry was genuinely eager to marry Kate and more than that, he wanted her to truly understand his sincerity.
Kate knew better than anyone.
When Dave heard this news, he was so sad that he couldn’t sleep. He couldn’t change anything and tried to comfort himself, telling himself that perhaps time was the best remedy.
Melanie and David had no objections. Harry’s family was well–off and well- mannered. Most importantly, he treated Kate well.
They respected Kate‘ s decision and would no longer force her. Only by seeing her happy could they truly feel at ease.
Two days later, they all returned to the country.

beginning. They traveled for three months, visiting 23 countries.
The old Kate never imagined she would one day experience this.
Walking hand in hand with her lover, they traversed mountains and flower fields.
Every step they took left traces of their love.
Three months later, they returned to their home country.
With only one week left until their wedding day, Harry returned to the country and personally took charge of every detail of the ceremony. He wanted to give Kate a unique wedding, one that would make the whole world know that she was his beloved.
The wedding was held in a grand church and the guest list included close family, friends and media representatives. Kate’s parents were also invited and attended the ceremony. Among the guests, there was

also Dave.
It wasn’t the first time Dave had seen Kate
in a wedding dress, but this time, it wasn’t for him.
As he gazed at her, a bittersweet feeling surged within him. His eyes reddened and he couldn’t help but acknowledge that Kate, standing before him, was the most
beautiful woman in his heart.
He watched as the newlyweds embraced and kissed, a perfect couple in his eyes.
Unable to bear it any longer, Dave turned and left the scene, but fate had other plans. He unexpectedly ran into someone he hadn’t seen in a long time.
It was Leona.
Leona was dressed in plain clothes and Dave almost didn’t recognize her at first.
“What are you doing here?” he asked, his voice tinged with surprise.
Leona had changed a lot. She looked much

and the heavy weight of divine punishment seemed inevitable.
Before being taken away by the police, Leona caught a final glimpse of Kate. She screamed at her with all the bitterness in her heart.
“It’s all because of you, you wretched woman! Everything I’ve become is because of you!”

Kate stared in disbelief at Dave who was lying in a pool of blood. She couldn’t process what had just happened.
In the end, Dave died to his injuries and Leona was sentenced for her crime. Everything had unfolded too suddenly, leaving everyone in shock and mourning.
But Kate would not let their issues affect her. Perhaps this was their retribution.
Two years later, after traveling abroad, Kate and Harry returned home with a child.
