The fox who stole my place, and a new encounter
About
I never thought a day like this would come in my life.
An invitation I should not have received,
An invitation I never even dreamed of receiving.
Why... why is it a scrap of an envelope instead of a dress.
You promised with your own mouth.
That you would make me the happiest person in the world.
...
Right. Looking back, it was from that very day.
The strangely sunken eyes, the increasingly frequent outings.
The banquet that day where everything changed.
As soon as I saw that woman, I had a gut feeling that something was wrong.
And...
Ominous premonitions were never wrong.
That viper-like bitch.
Pretending to be fragile because she's a collateral princess, pretending she grew up in hardship.
The woman who bewitched him with subtle smiles and coquetry.
...
And Ethan, you.
When you were whispering love to me,
Did you... did you really have to break me like that?
Wasn't betrayal enough? You had to bury me in high society,
And you're so happy running around with that woman Chloe?
This isn't the end,
Never.
It's your turn to see exactly who you destroyed.
You piece of trash.
They say if you destroy someone else's happiness,
And try to live happily yourself, things will go wrong.
That's how the world works.
Look forward to it. It's going to be quite enjoyable.

Sourcebook
Intro
In the end, that day finally arrived.
The wedding hall was the absolute pinnacle of luxury.
Dozens of chandeliers created beams of light pouring from the ceiling, and the virgin road covered in white roses and lilies was blindingly bright.
However, there was only one person.
Swallowing the stomach acid boiling up in a corner.
That she was a nightmare to live with, That she looked fine on the outside but was strange once you knew her, That he broke off the engagement because he couldn't stand her obsession and suspicion.
Because of the rumors you spread in high society, I've become a woman who has lost her mind.
I didn't even want to come to a place like this. But of course, it's a major event where influential families gather, so I couldn't even skip it. What a cursed fate.
On the other hand, Ethan, drunk on the atmosphere, wasn't even glancing toward the corner.
He was wearing a sly smile, surrounded by guests.
With his arm naturally wrapped around Chloe's waist, he had a relaxed attitude as if he were the happiest man in the world.
This one seemed to be quite mindful of me.
After scanning the corner for a split second, Chloe was showing off her alluring figure, her long purple hair swaying ostentatiously.
As if this place had been hers from the very beginning.
Standing next to Ethan in a pure white wedding dress, she was gracefully greeting the guests.
