When Love Affair Withered Away

For the past eight years, I had been in a secret relationship with my best friend's sister. In public, Crystal Lancaster threatened me as her dutiful personal assistant, but behind the closed door, she would shower me with affection and whispered words of love every single night.

One day, I accidentally discovered she had purchased a DR engagement ring. A ring that could only ever be customized once in a lifetime. My heart raced with excitement as I secretly followed her to the beautifully arranged venue.

However, what I saw shattered me because I saw her kneeling on one knee in front of a man who bore an uncanny resemblance to me. Tears streamed down her face as she declared, “You’re the only one I’ll ever marry in this life.”
