He Begged Me to Come Back

After five years with Nathaniel Sinclair, Sylvia Garner thought their love would lead to a lifelong commitment. But when Nathaniel postponed their wedding, her world began to crumble. At a private club, Sylvia stumbled upon a scene that shattered her heart—Nathaniel down on one knee, proposing to another woman.

“You’ve been with Sylvia for five years, but now you’re suddenly marrying Vivian Hayes. Aren’t you afraid she’ll be upset?” someone asked.

Nathaniel shrugged it off. “Vivian is ill; this is her dying wish. Sylvia loves me too much to leave.”

The whole world knew Sylvia loved Nathaniel to the point of obsession, believing she couldn’t live without him.

But this time, he was wrong.

On the day of his wedding, he told his friend, “Keep an eye on Sylvia. Don’t let her know I’m marrying someone else!”

His friend froze. “Sylvia is getting married today too. Didn’t you know?”

At that moment, Nathaniel broke down.

“Dad, didn’t you mention the fiancé you arranged for me as a child has been looking for me? Tell him I’m getting married on the first of next month but need a groom. Ask if he’s interested.”

The voice on the other end paused in shock. “Aren’t you set on marrying Nathaniel? You’re already planning the wedding. What happened? Did he do something to upset you?”

“Dad, just help me ask.”

“Alright, as long as you’re sure about this. All I want is for you to be happy.”

Sylvia Garner, eyes red with tears, replied firmly, “I will be.”

She had once loved Nathaniel Sinclair with all her heart, convinced he was her destined partner. Their wedding date was set, and she had been overjoyed, counting down the days to becoming his bride.

But just now, she received a devastating blow.

An hour earlier.

Sylvia stood before the mirror in a pristine white wedding gown. Her graceful figure, accentuated by the dress, looked breathtaking.

“Miss Garner, this custom-made gown designed by Mr. Sinclair is absolutely stunning. You two are going to be so happy together,” the shop assistant complimented.

But Sylvia couldn’t bring herself to smile.

Her eyes scanned the room until they landed on Nathaniel, tucked away in a quiet corner near the window. He was on the phone, his expression soft and full of affection.

The shop assistant, holding her phone, stepped into Sylvia’s line of sight. “Miss Garner, there’s a call for you.”

It was from the wedding planning company she had hired.

“Miss Garner… Mr. Sinclair just informed us there was a mistake with the bride’s name. He’s requested to change it to Vivian Hayes. Were you aware of this?”

An indescribable sorrow overwhelmed Sylvia, tears threatening to spill in the next second.

Though she already knew Nathaniel had betrayed her, she hadn’t expected him to be so shameless.

A month ago, when Nathaniel’s first love, Vivian Hayes, returned from abroad after five years, Sylvia felt a sense of foreboding.

Just yesterday, she had gone after Nathaniel to give a tie
