A woman who cried gained sympathy.
In wave after wave of tears, Draco’s heart slowly shifted toward her.
What truly made me break down was the night before our engagement.
That day, Draco told me he wanted to get something ready for me as a surprise.
Feeling curious, I quietly went back to the house, only to see Ravena stepping out of Draco’s bedroom, her clothes messy.
When she noticed me, she not only gave no explanation at all, but she instead harshly threw the keepsake my mother had left me onto the floor.
“Savannah, stop acting like some proper young miss in front of me. Everyone knows you’re just someone living off the Conrad family.”
“Who will end up as the future woman of the Conrad household is still not decided!”
I was angry and yelled at her to leave, but instead, she ran to Draco, crying.
She claimed that I had always bullied her and Aunt Wendy in every way possible.
And that now, because I was about to marry Draco, I was trying to push their whole family into a corner with no way out.
That Draco, who once promised he would always agree with me and stand by my side, just like that, chose to believe everything she said.
