Chapter 265

Cecilia's mother was still crying, holding onto her hand as she asked, "My dear, are you okay? What

are you looking for? Just look at me....

"Stef... Where is he?” Cecilia's voice was hoarse and weak.

After experiencing such a deadly situation, she decided that she had to stop hiding her true feelings.

She loved Stefan Hunt, and she couldn't possibly move on from him.

The only person she wanted to see now... was Stefan Hunt.

"M... Mr. Hunt?”

The atmosphere felt tense and awkward, as everyone had the same thought in their heads.

'The first thing this bride did, despite having just survived drowning, was to look for another man... Poor

Mr. Jacobs...'

Christopher's handsome face turned stiff, then spoke softly to the woman in his embrace. "Stef risked

his life to save you, you know? You have to give him a proper thanks later."

"He did?" Cecilia's pale face finally livened up, bursting into tears. "I knew it ... He does care about me!

Oh, Stef... Where is he? I have to see him!"

At that moment, there was a crowd of guests surrounding the bride, with Stefan and Renee in the

outermost area.

After confirming that Cecilia was safe, Stefan grabbed Renee by the wrist and intended to leave.

Renee, however, stood still and teased the man. "Hey, Mr. Nice Guy, this won't do! How could you just

leave without taking credit for your good deeds?"

The man rolled his eyes at her, growling. 'Stop talking like that. I'll throw you into the sea if you keep

this up."

Renee smiled awkwardly. "Fine, fine. I'll stop. I can't afford to provoke Mr. Nice Guy after all!"

Just then, the crowd automatically parted, which allowed Cecilia to finally see the man of her dreams.

"Stef..."

However, her gleeful smile froze abruptly as she noticed Stefan holding Renee's hand tightly.

The man who risked his life to save me... wasn't waiting for me to regain consciousness, but is holding

another woman's hand instead?!'

The last ounce of hope in her heart was rekindled and distinguished, time and time again throughout

the entire day.

The seed of jealousy had already been planted in her heart, sprouting uncontrollably as if it were

weeds.

She then did her best to suppress these emotions, putting up a pitiful act as she gazed upon Stefan,

who was standing in the distance.

"Stef, I heard you just risked your life to save me... You've already saved me so many times... How

could I ever repay you?"

Stefan stood still; his expression was distant and hostile. "I did it out of natural instinct. You don't have

to thank me.

Those words acted as a knife, once again carving into Cecilia's broken heart, leaving her to bleed out.

This man... He was willing to give up on everything for xo me before! He was even willing to give

up his life!'

'But now... he wouldn't even bother admitting that we used to date... I... just can't...'

Ruby was watching the show the entire time, observing Cecilia and Stefan closely. As an experienced

actress, she was familiar with romance and relationships.

Anyone could tell that Cecilia was still in love with the man, but Stefan had moved on. In fact, he

seemed to care more about his ex-wife now.

Before this, the actress was actually still frustrated, wondering how she should take down Renee,

considering that she was a very strong rival. Yet seeing Cecilia gave her an idea...

She approached the supposed bride and pretended to act out of concern." Oh my god, Miss Smith,

how are you feeling right now? Everyone was worried sick!" "How did you fall into the ocean? You were

fine just a while ago! Could it be that... someone pushed you in?"
