Shattered Dreams: Moving On From an Ex's Betrayal1

My grandmother was gravely ill. Before she passed away, she wanted to see me in a wedding dress.

But on the day of the wedding, my fiancé, Kenny Brewer, vanished.

I called him countless times and sent countless messages, but there was no response.

Late at night, his ex-girlfriend, Serena Payne, posted an update on Instagram.

She posted: [He is my eternal guardian angel. Whatever I want, he will give it to me.]

The picture was of their marriage certificate from that day.

My grandmother passed away with regret, not having seen me in a wedding dress.

I was determined to leave him. Kenny, however, begged me, his face full of remorse.

However, at that time, his apologies and regret no longer mattered to me.

With a broken heart, I said to Kenny Brewer, "Let's break up!"

I rushed from the wedding venue to the hospital and then to the funeral home. Along the way, I felt as helpless and numb as a puppet.

After everything was over, I returned home, clutching my grandmother's portrait.

It was then that I realized I no longer had any family in this world.

I crouched on the floor and wept uncontrollably.
