Divorcing Her, I Married My Rival

A week before the wedding, my fiancée, Seraphina Thorne, declared she had to marry her ex-boyfriend first before she could marry me.

Her ex, Caleb Reed's mother, Mrs. Evelyn Reed, was critically ill, with not long left to live.

Her last wish was to see her son married and with a child.

"Mrs. Reed has always hoped Caleb would have his own family, a child. I'm just trying to fulfill a mother's dying wish, don't overthink it, Leo."

But my company had already tied our "True Love Collection" jewelry launch to the date of our extravagant wedding.
