I married a spoiled rich man

On the day I married Howard Fitzgerald, his first love Stephanie Duncan was forced into an arranged marriage with Noah Webster, New York’s most notorious playboy.
Howard didn’t want her to lose her chance at happiness, so he fled our wedding ceremony to find Stephanie.
Even Xavier Fitzgerald, Howard’s late brother’s orphaned son whom I had raised for seven years, left with him.
“Dad told me he only wants Stephanie to be
my
mom!”
In front of everyone, Howard passionately kissed Stephanie and placed the wedding ring that should have been mine on her finger.
All of New York was laughing at me.
Surprisingly, the next day, Noah stopped my car. Leaning against the hood, he smirked and said, “Ellie, your fiancé ran away from your wedding, and my fiancée was stolen from me. How about we get married?”
I smiled back, “No problem. I’ll marry you.”
As soon as I said this, the sarcastic smile on Noah’s face instantly vanished.
“What did you say?”

Looking directly into his eyes, I enunciated each word: “I said,

Three hours later, Noah and I stood outside City Hall, each holding our marriage certificate.

After a few seconds of silence, Noah suddenly said, “I’ll go prepare for the wedding ceremony. We’ll officially get married the day after tomorrow. Remember, don’t back out.”
As if afraid I might change my mind, Noah hurriedly exchanged contact information with me before driving away.
I couldn’t help but smile. The way he nervously fumbled for his passport earlier made him seem completely different from the rich playboy everyone described.
Despite his reputation as a womanizer, I thought Noah was at least better than Howard.
Then, just as I reached my front door, I saw Howard standing there with Xavier.
My expression immediately darkened.
“Mr. Fitzgerald, your wedding just ended. Why aren’t you with your wife instead of looking for me?”
Howard looked guilty and tried to appease me: “Ellie, Stephanie is like a sister to me. Noah is a playboy. How could I stand by and watch her fall into trouble?”
So he abandoned our wedding, making my family the laughingstock of New York. Howard even publicly kissed Stephanie, trampling my dignity into worthlessness. 2/4

Howard assumed I was bluffing and sneered, “Stop trying to scare me with this marriage nonsense. Ellie, take a few days to calm down!”
With that, Howard left with Xavier.

I clenched my fists, feeling utterly frustrated. Indeed, everyone in New York knew I loved Howard deeply, and he didn’t believe I would marry anyone else. But ever since Stephanie returned, the once gentle and caring Howard was gone. I thought seven years of love would be enough to withstand anything, but everything that happened showed me I had only been fooling myself.
