My father passed away after a long illness. The day before my father's funeral, my fiancé, Jacob White, registered his marriage with his first love, Vivian Brown. I demanded an explanation, but Jacob looked impatient. He said, "Vivian's dad has cancer, and his last wish is to see her get married. I'm just trying to do something nice. Can't you stop being so selfish?" But when I called him that night, it was Vivian who answered. She said, "Jacob's in the shower. Want me to pass a message to him?" I stayed silent and hung up. It was late at night when Jacob finally called, sounding worn out. He said, "I'm busy with my wedding preparations these days, so stop bothering me about your dad's funeral." I didn't say a word. I slipped off the ring and ended our engagement.
