When Regret Comes Too Late

Synopsis

On the eve of my wedding to a crippled man, I stumbled upon a chilling conversation between Alaric and my brother, Wesley. "You're ruthless," Alaric said. "To let your own sister marry a cripple just so I can be with Larissa." Wesley replied calmly, "I can't bear to see Larissa suffer. My sister doesn't matter—so long as you and Larissa are happy." After a long silence, Alaric admitted, "I once thought I loved your sister. But ever since Larissa came along, she's the only one I see." Larissa, the orphan my family adopted, while I—Raeyon—am the true daughter of the Aviir family. I stood frozen in the corridor, thunderstruck. Before they could come out, I fled back to my room, my heart shattering. The two people I trusted most had set a cruel trap, all for the sake of an outsider.
