I couldn’t hide my impatience.

“Do I really need to explain? We broke up, remember?”
Yuri’s face instantly darkened, then a cold laugh escaped his lips.
“Break up, huh? Did I agree to this? Just one day, and you can’t wait to find some random guy? Freya, are you that desperate? Five years together, and you throw it all away so easily?”
Willa, standing nearby, gasped dramatically.
“Oh my God! Freya, even if you’re fighting with Yuri, you don’t have to… you don’t have to disrespect yourself like this. Aren’t you embarrassed? This is just pathetic.”
They were the ones who cheated first, yet somehow, I was the one at fault.

I didn’t want to escalate things in a public place, so I made a move to pull Bruce away.
But Willa clearly wasn’t going to let this opportunity slip.
She stepped in front of us, raising her voice deliberately.
“I know the Clayton family’s princess is rich and powerful, and you’re never short on men. But Yuri loves you so much–do you even deserve him? You broke up with him on your own, but Yuri never agreed to it! Now, you owe him an apology!”
Yuri’s eyes were fixed on me, as if waiting for an explanation.
The crowd around us began to gather, whispering and pointing at Bruce and me, like we were some scandalous couple.
My hands trembled uncontrollably, my fingers clutching at my sleeve.

Bruce noticed my unease and murmured softly, “Don’t worry!”
Bruce, coming from the Pruitt family, wasn’t exactly known for his calm demeanor. He’d O been holding back his anger up until now, all
because I had given him a silent signal.
But seeing me like this, he could no longer contain his fury.
He strode forward, his fist smashing into Yuri’s face.
Yuri was caught off guard, stumbling backward and crashing to the ground.
“Yuri!”
Willa screamed, rushing to his side, tears streaming down her face.
“Freya, we only said a few things to you! How could you let your wild man hit someone?!”

Yuri wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, about to rise and strike back, but Bruce kicked him down again.
Bruce pulled out our marriage certificate from his jacket pocket and shoved it into Yuri’s face.
“Take a good look. Freya and I are legally married. If you dare insult us again, get ready for a lawyer’s letter.”
Yuri froze for a moment, then reached for the certificate.
Bruce swiftly pulled it back, sneering.
“What’s the matter? Dr. Farrar doesn’t even recognize a marriage certificate?”
“It’s easy to buy fake ones online. You think I’m stupid enough to believe that?”
Yuri glared at me, his voice turning sharp.

“Freya, get over here right now! Don’t you want to embarrass yourself with him?”
At that moment, Willa suddenly clutched her stomach and screamed, “Yuri… my stomach hurts so badly…”
Yuri rushed to check on her, frantic.
Seizing the opportunity, Bruce pulled me quickly out of the crowd.
We were almost out of the mall when I finally started to calm down.
I looked up and saw the mall’s advertisement screen number, a sly smile tugging at my lips.
Minutes later, every large screen in the mall simultaneously began to play the intimate video Willa had sent me.
Although Yuri quickly had them cut off the broadcast, the video had already gone viral
