The Abandoned BrideChapter 1

I couldn’t stop smiling at the engagement ring while heading to the restroom. My smile faded when I overheard some noises from a supposed-to-be empty room. Curios, I leaned my ear to the door and was shocked when I recognized the voice of the man on the other side.

A loud slapping sound of skins, followed by never-ending moans and groans could be heard and I already guessed what was going on inside the room.

“Tyler, are you really going to marry that woman?” Amber asked then moaned.

“Ah! Not really. You’re way better than her, Amber,” Tyler replied and continued what they were doing.

My mind went blank. I couldn’t understand… Just why did he do this?

An hour ago, Tyler came to attend my birthday with Amber. He made everyone believe, including me, that Amber was just like his younger sister. He even proposed to marry me which I accepted. Everyone was shocked when I said ‘yes’, but they couldn’t do anything about my decision to be Tyler’s fiance.

Amber seemed to look pissed that time but I didn’t think much about it. We have never gotten along since when it comes to Tyler. The two have been close since childhood and it didn’t bother me, to believe that Tyler only sees Amber as his younger sister was a huge mistake. It was clear that Amber had feelings for Tyler and he usually hung out with her when I wasn’t around.

I didn’t know what went wrong between us. Tyler was a caring boyfriend until recently when Amber started hanging out with him often. I didn’t mind it at first since Tyler would always tell me that Amber only wanted to be with her older brother.

My friends never liked Tyler. They thought he was only after my money and I remember defending him whenever they convinced me to dump Tyler. As for me, it didn’t matter even if he came from a poor family.

Tyler and I have been dating for five years, and getting married to him was one of my dreams. I’ve been waiting for this day to come but all of the excitement was gone when I knew what he was up to behind my back. For five years, I tried to do my best to keep my relationship with Tyler. I always tried to understand him, even though some things were already too much.
