Chapter 6

On the day of trying on wedding dresses, Lucas cleared his schedule in advance.

He arranged all his work.

He said, "Nothing and no one can disturb me when I witness my wife at her most beautiful moment."

Seeing his serious expression, I felt a surge of sweetness in my heart, diluting some of the previous bitterness.

I thought, maybe it's not so bad after all.

Even if they were just ordinary friends, he couldn't stand by and do nothing.

He had always been a brave person. That's why I fell for him in the first place.

We were in the bridal shop, trying on dress after dress, selecting the most suitable one.

Lucas gave his opinions seriously, showing no dissatisfaction despite the tedious process.

Even the shop assistant praised him.

My mood was getting better and better. I once again felt the joy of getting married.

Until his phone rang.

I watched him take out his phone and walk to the side to answer the call.

He came back soon after, stuttering a bit: "A friend is nearby. She heard we're choosing wedding dresses and wants to come take a look."

I lowered my head, fiddling with the tassels on the wedding dress.

After a moment, I looked up at him and smiled: "Sure, the more opinions, the better."

Seeing that I wasn't upset, Lucas secretly breathed a sigh of relief and turned to run out.

As soon as he left, the smile on my face vanished.

I turned to look at myself in the mirror. The smile frozen on my face looked like it had been drawn on.

Like a clown.
