Marry My Ex's Sworn Enemy

Chapter 12: Getting Married on the SDay

The video was from a few days before Seraphina's birthday. Julian had asked Sonya about the best proposal

location in town, and she'd genuinely thought he was going to propose to her Sonya liked the rooftop terrace at

the Starry Sky Hotel, a popular venue for events. After work, Sonya went there to film a video for Julian.

Seraphina and her friends happened to be having coffee there, and she appeared in the video. "I just heard you

asked the manager if you could host the proposal party here." "Julian's going to propose to you?"

"Hah, you wish."

"Want to make a bet? My birthday is in a few days. Let's see if Julian proposes to you or me." Sonya found

Seraphina's challenge amusing.

Julian was her boyfriend. Wouldn't she be the one he proposed to? Even insults had limits! Ignoring Seraphina,

Sonya continued filming the scenery.

The vast night sky above, the city lights in the distance, and her beloved one was on one knee. Wouldn't that be

romantic?

Then Seraphina got herself included again, giving that speech.

It turned out that Seraphina's confidence wasn't misplaced: Sonya's self-assuredness was laughable.

Sonya looked at Julian. He was staring intently at the table, as if the phone and video were still there.

be over."

Julian looked coldly at Sonya, then leaned back. After being silent for a moment, he chuckled.

"So you thought | was going to propose to you?"

Sonya saw the sarcasm on his face. She didn't reply.

"What made you that confident?"

He looked at her again."l thought you were grounded, but | was wrong. You're so delusional that you actually

Sonya shook her head. "I wanted to marry you because | loved you."

"Hah, does anyone believe that?"

"| thought you did."

Mrs. Jennings!"

Julian grabbed a bottle of liquor, violently twisting off the cap, and took several large gulps.

oking back at Sonya, he had a storm of complex emotions to erupt, but her calm demeanor made him suppress

them. "Delers that video"

"Why?" Julian thought for a moment. "No reason. | just forgos, or didn't feel like "

"Julian!"

"Now we've broken up. You want that house for free, you need to pay something. My only request is for you to

delete the video and stay off the internet. Let the scandal die dow naturally," Sonya laughed bitterly. She'd used

her parents' house to help him build his empire. Now this house bechis weapon to pierce her heart.

A precise strike from eight years of intimacy.

Sonya opened her phone and deleted the video in front of Julian. Then, she pushed the million-dollar check

Seraphina had given her across the table.

Julian pushed it back."l can't give you the house yet."

"You just agreed..."

Sonya smiled. "A gift. How generous."

"You're welcome."

"When's the wedding? Is the date set?"

Julian nodded. "My family's pushing. September 6th, a month from now. Olivorpposedly a good day."

"Fine. That day."

Sonya picked up a bottle of liquor, popped the top, and clinked it against

Julian's "Congratulations."

She took a large gulp, then walked out.

Leo noticed Sonya looked terrible so he followed her. She didn't leave the bar, but sat at the

counter.

"Jake, take care of Julian. I'll stay with Sonya," Leo said to Jake.

Jake put down his work and went to Julian's room.

Leo sat beside Sonya, asking the bartender for a glass.

"Sonya, share a drink with me." Leo pushed his glass toward Sonya. Sonya looked

"What?"

Leo, smiling sadly."l Want to get really

drunk tonight."

"My heart still hurts... so much..."

Her past devotion had wounded her deeply.

Leo took back his glass and ordered a bottle of liquor.

"I'll drink with you. He clinked his bottle against Sonya's. "To your freedom."

"Thank you. That's exactly what | want."

Jake emerged from the private room, supporting Julian, who was completely drunk. He saw Sonya swaying as she

headed for the exit.

He rushed to help her, then looked at Leo, who was already passed out. He had a huge problem on his hands; he

had to get them all home.

"Sonya, where are you living now?"

"Cloud Haven Villas."

"What? You still live at Julian's?"

Sonya shook her head, pushing Jake away, and walked out.

"You're drunk, lettake you home!" Jake followed.

"No, someone's pickingup."

The cold air sobered Sonya slightly. Luke

was

already waiting for her.

Just as she was about to get in, Jake stopped her.

"You're getting into a stranger's car?"

"He's not a stranger. It's Mr. Givens."

Luke showed Jake Sonya's message from half an hour ago.

Satisfied, Jake didn't stop them.

He assumed she'd ordered a cab, but

bit excessive.
