Their Wedding Was merely a Dream Chapter 1

At eighteen, Dawn Norris believed she would marry the young man she loved.

But at twenty-five, she heard him say dismissively, "Dawn? She is just a fishmonger. I can't even be bothered to touch her at night. She smells fishy."

Dawn naively thought he was just tired of their relationship.

But she completely gave up hope on him after he drew blood from Maya White, the woman who adopted Dawn and raised her, for his new girlfriend, Erin Lambert, and after he even scattered Maya's ashes.

Perhaps Blaine had changed in the summer many years ago.

At twenty-eight, Dawn found herself in the bed of Blaine's sworn enemy. She never imagined that she would spend the rest of her life with him.

...

While Dawn was cutting fish, she was absent-minded. Then she felt a sharp pain in her finger as blood seeped out.

Mindy Lawson, the woman at the next stall, said while handing her a tissue, "Dawn, be careful. You're about to marry that young man who plays the piano. Everything will be fine. You've been working hard to fund his education. You helped him overcome his autism. You went through so many hardships all these years. Now that he's successful, it's time for him to repay you. How can you leave him?"

Dawn's nose tingled. She looked at the fish in the sink and thought of Blaine's words from yesterday evening. She felt heaviness in her chest.

"Did he cheat on you?" Mindy asked cautiously.

Dawn wiped away her tears and forced a smile. "How could it be? He's not that kind of person. It's just that our future plans differ."

She never spoke ill of him.

She numbly scaled and cleaned the fish, and her heart ached with sorrow.

She remembered that Blaine was a transfer student from the city when she first met him.

He was strikingly good-looking and had exceptional talent. He instantly became the talk of the town among the girl students.

They put on their fanciest dresses, adorned their hair with bright clips, and shyly slipped love letters to Blaine.

Yet he remained as cold as ice and had never been gentle to any girl. He only looked soft when he played the piano.

Dawn seldom paid attention to others' things.

She had been kidnapped when she was a little girl and stayed with Maya. The latter treated Dawn exceptionally well.

She had gotten used to life by the sea and loved fishing barefoot at night. Then she returned to Maya's home and worked on her assignment.

But one night, Dawn didn't catch any fish but found Blaine.

His handsome features were outlined by the mist, and his chest heaved. He looked so thin.

Dawn took him home and heard him speak for the first time. Then she realized he wasn't mute.

She learned the true reason for his transfer to their town from the city.

Blaine's father was framed as a corrupt official by a powerful figure.

And his mother was a college teacher. She was framed and accused of having an affair with a student.

The photos of his mother kissing a college student spread through the city, and the news of his father's corruption was broadcast daily.

Blaine had been a musical prodigy and had had autism since then. So he transferred to the school in the small town. He was unwilling to speak to anyone but Dawn, who saved his life.

Dawn was bold in school. Blaine, the aloof and handsome boy, clung to her. It became a laughingstock to others.

Later, Dawn liked to capture each of Blaine's performances with her camera.

Initially, he was reluctant. But he quickly agreed because Dawn playfully tugged his arm.

When the college entrance exam results came out, Blaine declined the offer from a college abroad and accepted the one from a domestic music academy. She quietly shelved her dream of becoming a screenwriter, as Maya's money couldn't support two college students.

She would sell fish to support Blaine's musical aspirations.

In the practice room, Blaine called her. "Why aren't we going to college together?"

Dawn tied her hair into braids and caught a fish.

She replied, "Maya's condition is poor. I can't leave her to sell fish alone."

Blaine pressed his lips and understood clearly what she was doing.

"I'll support you and help you fulfill your dreams in ten years." He said it resolutely.

At eighteen, they huddled in a small rental, blissfully content.

Blaine promised Dawn a free future, so he immersed himself in practice every day in the piano room.

He achieved it. He became the principal pianist in the Central Orchestra within five years and reclaimed the title of "Piano Prodigy."

At twenty-five, Blaine proposed to Dawn at a romantic seaside. He was dressed in a white suit and playing "Wedding in a Dream" on the golden beach at sunset. "There are still three years left before I fulfill my promise. Will you agree to get engaged to me now?"

Dawn cried with joy. She extended her finger to exchange rings with him, saying with a smile, "I do."

They hugged and had sex in the newly bought seaside house until dawn, leaving traces of kisses on each other all over.

Blaine even tattooed her initials on his chest and repeatedly traced them with her hand. "Dawn, I'll spend the rest of my life with you and be good to you forever."

Dawn believed it.

She thought they both loved each other and would share a bright future together.

But she never knew that Blaine's forever only lasted three short years.

On Blaine's birthday, Dawn met Erin Lambert, a medical student from a distinguished medical university.

She looked strikingly beautiful and mature. As she stood beside Blaine, they looked like a perfect match.

In contrast, Dawn looked at herself in the mirror and saw a worn-out country woman.

When she returned from the restroom, Dawn overheard one of Blaine's friends teasing through the door. "Blaine, you and Erin really match perfectly. Why did you bring another woman?"

Blaine's voice was flat as he said, "Oh, her? She is a childhood friend from back home. She stays over at my place to see much of the world."

While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her

Katie Oettgen

As I lay on the floor of our manor, bleeding out from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, I used my last ounce of strength to call my husband, Cole. I begged him for help, my vision blurring. But the only thing I heard was the clinking of champagne glasses and his mistress's giggle in the background. "Stop the drama, June," Cole snapped, his voice cold. "We're about to go on stage. Don't call again." He hung up, leaving me to die alone on the Persian rug while he accepted an award with another woman on his arm. I woke up in the hospital days later. My baby was gone. They had removed my fallopian tube. Cole finally arrived, smelling of expensive scotch and his mistress's perfume. He didn't hug me. He didn't cry. Instead, he leaned over my hospital bed, pressing his knee into the mattress until my fresh stitches tore open and bled. "You embarrassed me by calling an ambulance," he hissed. "My mistress, Alycia, says you're faking it. Clean yourself up." He left me bleeding again to go announce a $10 million donation to Alycia's "groundbreaking" medical research. I stared at the TV screen, numb. The research Alycia was taking credit for? It was mine. I wrote that patent years ago under a pseudonym. They thought I was just a poor, orphan housewife who needed Cole's money to survive. They had no idea I was actually a billionaire scientist hiding my identity. I pulled the IV needle out of my arm. A drop of blood fell onto the divorce papers I had been hiding. I didn't wipe it off. I signed my name right over it. Then I walked into the bank, reactivated my dormant account with $128 million, and bought the penthouse directly overlooking Cole's house. The mourning widow is dead. The avenger is born.

No Longer Mrs. Cooley: The Architect's Return

No Longer Mrs. Cooley: The Architect's Return

Xiao Xiaosu

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.
