Chapter 8
In order to let me have no regrets, I specially made a pair of wedding gloves that could completely cover the wound on my wrist.
This marriage, which I didn’t have much hope for, brought me an unexpected surprise.
Leo made up for my birthday gift that he had missed for fifteen years.
Every gift was something I loved and really liked.
He recorded it carefully for fifteen years.
Not a single year was missed.
When he knelt on one knee and took out the diamond ring to propose.
My eyelashes were wet with tears.
This diamond ring was a wedding ring brand that would only be given once in a

lifetime.
I had seen it in Elmer’s safe.
I was so happy that I thought he was going to give it to me.
But the night Melissa came back, she had already sent me a photo of her holding hands with Elmer with the ring.
I had become a joke.
Now facing Leo, who had my heart and eyes full of me, I suddenly felt inferior.
I felt inferior to his excellence and deep affection, which was unworthy of me, a person with a messy relationship.
Leo saw through me at a glance. He held my hand and put the ring on me unswervingly.
“It’s not you who did the wrong thing from beginning to end, it’s them who don’t deserve it. My Erin, who is kind and excellent, always deserves the best.”

I completely broke down in tears and
sobbed.
On the wedding day, when my mother was helping me cover the veil, she suddenly
received a call.
She left in a hurry and I didn’t take it to
heart.
Until I took Leo‘ s hand and walked
through the long red carpet, I looked up at the banquet in front of the rolling
platform. His face was pale and Elmer was
smashed.
The group training bodyguard dragged him out. Elmer was stopped outside the auditorium. He watched us swap the ring.
After the length of the emcee, the word was clearly vowed and he was willing. In the lounge, I saw Elmer, who was being
stunned by my dad. Elmer wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and
staggered to me.
He took out a small box from his pocket,

which contained a pink diamond ring as big as a pigeon egg.
He grinned and smiled at me dotingly, just like countless times before, coaxing a child.
“Erin, I’m sorry, your husband is late. Please don’t be angry, okay? Our wedding date is today and it will be too late if it’s later, so come home with me first, okay?”
My father’s eyes were wide open and he was about to fight again.
Leo, who was standing next to me, blocked his action, took off his glasses slowly and handed them to me. “Be good, help your husband hold it.”
I took it.
The next moment, a fist full of anger knocked Elmer two meters away, smashing
a chair on the spot.
He looked down from above, his eyes were cold as if he was looking at a pile of

garbage.
“Your wife’s name is Melissa. You‘ d better change your habit of snatching other people’s treasures.”
“You‘ re talking nonsense!” Elmer struggled to get up, his eyes never leaving me. “Erin, I’m Elmer, your beloved husband. We’ve been together for five years. You said you’d marry me, you wouldn’t lie to me, right?”
The light in his eyes was affectionate and fragile as if it would break in the next
moment.
But I had experienced such affection for five years and I could no longer tell whether it was a play or real.
