Chapter 9: The Love of My Life

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

As the soothing music started, Peter walked on stage in a suit. He coughed and said,?“I am honored to have so many friends here today. Thank you.”

“Now, I want to confess my love to a beautiful lady. When I met her, I felt like I’d met the love of my life.”

After he finished speaking, the crowd below the stage started to cheer.

Shana puffed out her chest in the midst of the commotion and glanced at me like she won.

I rest my chin on my hand, bored. I can only hope this farce ends quickly.

“She is…”

As the lights on the field swung back and forth, Peter’s voice dragged on. Beside me, Shana was trying to look shy as she straightened her hair.

“It’s her!”

Suddenly I was hit by a beam of light. I squinted, then watched Peter jump off the stage and walk toward me.

Shana, who was in the darkness, was stunned for a second before she forced a smile and said loudly,?“How could it be her? Peter, are you mistaken?”

Peter was clearly startled by Shana’s sudden appearance in the dark. He looked at me and then at Shana, whose expression was on the verge of breaking down. He quickly made a decision.?“No, there’s no mistake. I just want to confess my love to this lady beside you.”

Immediately after, Peter looked at me and said affectionately,?“Beautiful lady, I have loved you for a long time, but I don’t know your name. May I ask…”

“Impossible! Didn’t you say you like me?”?Shana couldn’t maintain her posture and immediately interrupted Peter sharply.

Perhaps with me and many friends present, Peter had to pretend to be calm and explain, but his fluttering gaze revealed his panic.

“Shana, liking and loving are different things.”

“You said you would marry me!”

When Shana said this, people immediately thought of Peter’s past romantic affairs.

“Peter, aren’t you engaged to Shana’s sister, the fat girl who was pregnant with someone else’s child?”

“Peter, you’re not still engaged to someone, are you?”

“Why are you talking about marrying Shana now?”

Seeing that the courtship event was messed up, and that they had not publicly announced Shana and Peter’s decision to marry yet, Peter went back on his words and said,?“No! I will break off the engagement with that fat girl and I will not marry Shana!”

Peter pointed at me and said,?“Right now, I only have one true love. It’s her!”

After being pointed at and judged by everyone, my mood instantly turned bad and I stood up with a cold face.

Shana, who’d been humiliated in public, was glaring at me venomously, her body shaking with rage.

However, she did not expose the fact that I am the “fat girl Luna” that these people were talking about.

Of course, I came back from abroad in a new light. I crushed my step-sister Shana in every way, especially since I was still engaged to Peter. Shana would never do anything that will harm her interests, no matter how stupid she was.

“Beautiful lady, I truly love you. Please accept my confession.”

Seeing that Shana was no longer looking for trouble, Peter immediately knelt on one knee and took a bouquet of bell orchids from his follower. He added affectionately.?“I know you don’t like roses, so I changed them to bell orchids that symbolize happiness.”

The atmosphere at the scene reached its climax. Someone even started shouting,?“Beautiful lady, agree to his proposal!”

If I’d known this would be such a stupid and awkward situation, I wouldn’t have agreed to Shana’s request. I expressionlessly refused,?“I’m sorry, I don’t want to have anything to do with you. Please stop pestering me.”

“And,”?I said, looking at Shana’s livid face,?“I wish you and Shana a long, happy life together.”
