Nine Years of Love Ended

The night before my wedding with Patty Rush, she told me she had to stay late at the office for an urgent project.

Before leaving, she hugged my neck and asked me to double-check the wedding details for the next day. I smiled and assured her I would, telling her not to worry.

I went through everything alone until dawn, making sure there were no mistakes. Satisfied, I called her to report back.

Her assistant, Ivan Drake, answered the phone.

"Ms. Patty just fell asleep from exhaustion. Is there anything you need?"

I paused for a moment and said, "No, it's nothing."
