Chapter 10
When he woke up, he made a decision.
He wanted to show me that he understood his mistakes and would do anything to make things right and put my mind at ease. That night, the front page of every Los Angeles newspaper had shocking news about the Errard family.
“Ruben Errard, the formidable scion, refuses to take his family’s special medicine for his mental illness and chooses electric shock therapy instead!
“Ruben could not win back his wife, so he tortured himself to get her attention!”
That day, the internet went crazy with chatter.
However, I was having a beautiful wedding with Bastien in a small church.
When Ruben stumbled in, his body still weak from the electric shock treatment, he heard me in my white wedding dress, smiling shyly as I said “I do” to Bastien.
“No! Elise! I won’t let you marry him!”
Even 50 volts of electricity to his brain did not hurt as much as this
moment.
The powerful scion of the Errard family, who was always well–dressed and ruthless in business, now dropped to his knees like an abandoned dog.

He begged me with a scratchy voice, “Elise, don’t marry him. I’ll give you anything you want. Just please don’t marry another man…”
However, I looked at him calmly the entire time, and my face showed nothing but pure disgust.
He had ruined the wedding that Bastien had carefully planned for me, and I felt more disgusted than ever before.
He just would not leave me alone!
I looked do

at him with disgust like I was looking at something
“Ruben, this is the last time I’ll ever talk to you.
“Meeting you is the biggest regret of my life, and being with Bastien is the best decision I’ve ever made.
“I don’t care what you do from now on. Bastien and I will never be apart, whether we live or die!”
Hearing how determined I was, Ruben finally started crying.
“Elise, I really know I was wrong! Come back! Come back and punish me! Even if you want to kill me, I’ll let you!
“I’m just asking you not to get married. Please give me one last chance to love you the right way…”
“This whole time, I wasn’t obsessed with your scent, I was obsessed with you!”
I burst into laughter like I was looking at some weird animal.
He had never seen this side of me, just like he had never really known

who I was inside.
Ruben looked shocked. It seemed like he finally understood something from my smile.
I stayed calm and collected as I looked into his crazy eyes one last time.
“Ruben, don’t you get it? I never cared about you. Even if you died right here in front of me today, I’d just ask someone to drag your body out so it wouldn’t ruin my wedding.”
“Today is my special day. So, Mr. Errard, please do us both a favor and let me go, and let yourself go too.
Bastien slipped a beautiful, sparkling diamond ring onto my finger.
No one cared anymore about what the heartbroken man in the corner wanted.
No one even noticed that his grief was so intense it caused his heart to stop, and he stopped breathing.
Everyone present was immersed in my wedding with Bastien, with flying petals and good wishes everywhere.
He held my hand as we walked past Ruben lying on the ground like a stray dog that had wandered into the church.
Behind me was the prison I thought would trap me forever.
Meanwhile, in front of me was the beautiful future I had dreamed about So many times.
I laughed, and Bastien swept me up in his arms. He laughed loudly too, and the cold look on his face melted away.

He walked confidently out of the church, just like when he had rescued me before, held my hand tightly, and gently helped me into the car.
This time, I could finally take control of my own life.
