Chapter 2 

Stefan yanked Emily right towards his body, his face twisted with rage. 

“Divorce? Just because I had to take Selena to the hospital instead of attending the wedding? 

Are you out of your mind?” 

“What’s wrong with saving a life? Besides, Selena got hurt because of you! You’re threatening me with divorce now?” 

Fine, you want a divorce? Let’s do it! I’ll make sure it happens!” 

He kicked our suitcase to the ground, repeatedly stomping on it. 

I rushed to shield Emily, who looked like she was about to burst into tears. 

I regretted letting her marry Stefan; that decision was beyond stupid. 

After a dozen kicks, the suitcase finally burst open, causing everything inside to spill out. 

His foot accidentally landed on one of Dad’s keepsakes–a wooden carving Dad had made for Emily. 

I shoved Stefan away in a fury. “Don’t you dare touch that! F*ck off!” 

Trevor’s expression darkened, his voice dripping with anger. 

“Catherine Brown, I warn you, don’t test my limits!” 

I rushed to protect Dad’s belongings. 

The two brothers exchanged glances, and Stefan immediately understood, pulling Emily and me apart. 

Trevor handed the fruit basket to Selena, then stood over the suitcase, picking up a few of clothes with disdain. 

Chapter 2 

“You’re holding onto this junk like it’s treasure? What are you trying to play the victim for? Did I mistreat you?” 

“The wedding was a joke to begin with! What’s the point of making a scene? Is a fake wedding more important than a life?” 

“I said I’d make it up to you! Why can’t you just let it go?” 

“Oh, you like this trash, huh? Finet” 

Trevor pulled out a lighter and set Dad’s belongings on fire. 

I screamed in terror, “No!” and lunged forward, but Stefan held me back with a vice grip. 

Emily, now frantic, bit down hard on Stefan’s hand. 

In that split second, he loosened his grip, and Emily turned to slap him across the face. 

Everyone froze in shock. 

Selena dropped the fruit basket and rushed to hold Emily. 

“Calm down; Stefan’s just trying to help us all.” 

But Emily broke free from her embrace and grabbed Selena’s hair. 

Selena hit the ground, and Emily pounced on her, throwing punches. Stefan tried to intervene, but I blocked him. 

Seeing this, Trevor lost it, grabbing Emily by the hair and yanking her off Selena, slamming her head against the wall. 

After several blows, blood began to trickle from Emily’s forehead, and I screamed in despair. 

Minutes later, Dad’s belongings were reduced to ashes, the floor littered with chaos. 

My heart felt like it had turned to dust, and tears blurred my vis 

Trevor wiped his hands with a tissue in disgust before going back to comfort Selena.

Fake Wedding 1 

Chapter 2 

Selena cried, feeling wronged, while Stefan busied himself handing her tissues. 

Watching the two brothers hover around Selena, I felt a deep sense of sorrow wash over me. 

Emily lay helplessly on the ground. I wanted to help her, but Selena blocked my way.
