Felicity stumbled back, her expression one of utter shock as she processed his
reaction.
The crowd was equally baffled. “What just happened?”
In front of everyone, Logan groveled on the ground.
“I’m so sorry, honey!” he said, his voice trembling.
Logan publicly submitted to me, calling me “honey” in front of everyone.
It was a scene that left our classmates utterly speechless.
Felicity stood there, mouth agape, clearly questioning everything she thought she

“What’s going on here? Why is Mr. Ridley calling Megan ‘honey“?”

“What’s their relationship?”
The questions flew from the crowd like
arrows.
Felicity’s face turned pale, as if she’d just received a devastating blow.
After a long moment, she finally snapped back to reality and turned to Logan, and her voice shrilled with disbelief.
“Logan, what the hell is going on? Why are you calling this bitch ‘honey?
“Today is supposed to be our wedding day! How can you call someone else that in front of me?”
Her emotions spiraled out of control, and it was clear she couldn’t fathom the truth.

“Do you have any idea what you’re doing? You’re ruining my life!”
Felicity stumbled back from the abrupt rejection.
She stared at him, her eyes wide with disbelief, unable to comprehend the man before her.
This was not the Logan she had devoted herself to. How could the man she loved so deeply reveal such a monstrous side?
Logan, at that moment, didn’t care about Felicity’s feelings; the only thing on his mind was the sweat trickling down his back in anxiety.
Turning to me with an air of vulnerability, he pleaded, “Please, sweetheart, I know I

“Just this once, can you find it in your heart to forgive me?”
It was remarkable how far he’d fallen from
the self–assured man I once knew. The arrogance that usually defined him had vanished, replaced by humble desperation.
I met his gaze with a stony expression, disappointment tightening my chest.
“Logan, before we got married, you promised me that you’d love me, come hell or high water. What happened to that?”
I pointed at Felicity, my voice steady but laced with anger. “You proclaim your love for me while being legally bound to

“You knew exactly who I was and what I came from, and you played me like a fool- a stepping stone in your twisted game for success, all while leeching off my money to keep your other women.

“Please, my love, I truly care about you! I’ll get everything sorted out, I swear this won’t happen again,” Logan uttered desperately, tugging at me, a look of sheer panic plastered on his face, as if he were terrified of losing me.
Felicity, still confused, blinked at Logan,
