Victoria flinched

Lucas, what are you talking about? I don’t understand” 

Lucas’s patience snapped

Do you have any idea what you’ve done?” 

This was the painting she planned to showcase at our wedding!” 

And youof all thingsyou had to ruin this one?!” 

I” 

Victoria’s eyes darted around before she tried to play coy, reaching for his wrist with a sugary smile

Lucas, I didn’t mean to, I-” 

He yanked his arm away, scanning the crowd, the dwindling exhibit

Daphne still hadn’t shown up. A rare, unsettling panic crawled up his spine

The wedding officiant approached, steadying Victoria with a polite smile

Lucas, sir, please don’t be upset with your wife.” 

It’s your big daywhatever it is, surely you can talk it out.” 

Lucas stiffened

Wife?His voice was sharp, urgent

Daphne’s here? Where?!” 

He wasn’t sure why, but suddenly, nothing mattered more than seeing her

The officiant hesitated, glancing at Victoria

Isn’t she right here?” 

Lucas’s temper flared

She’s not Daphne!” 

He spun around in frustration, then pointed straight at Victoria

Are you blind? She’s nothing like Daphne!” 

Victoria’s face went pale

The officiant awkwardly stepped back, withdrawing his hand from her arm

The guests were growing restless, murmuring among themselves

Wasn’t Lucas’s fiancée supposed to be the artist hosting this exhibit?” 

It’s getting latewhere is she?” 

Yeah, and did you see that ruined painting in the corner?” 

If that’s her masterpiece,I don’t get the hype.” 

Probably just riding on Lucas’s influence.” 

Who does she think she is, making everyone wait like this?” 

Lucas clenched his jaw, shoving down the gnawing dread

After smoothing things over with the guests, he called Daphne

The the 

Daphne, where are you? The exhibit’s almost over. Why aren’t you here?” 

His voice dropped, softer now

I know I was harsh. I didn’t realize it was that painting.” 

I already called Victoria out. Daphne, please, just come out. I know you’re nearby.” 

You’ve been waiting for this moment for five years.‘ 

Why make things harder on yourself?” 

Hearing the urgency in Lucas’s voice, I suddenly laughed

The boarding announcement echoed through the terminal, reaching his end of the call

Lucas froze for a second before his voice turned frantic

Daphne, where are you?” 

Say something, Daphne!” 

Listening to the tremble in his voice, I finally spoke softly

Calm down. It’s just a painting. If it’s ruined, so be it.” 

I don’t need the painting anymore. And I don’t need you either.” 

Lucas, we’re done.” 

I hung up and boarded my flight to France

On the plane, I had a rare dreamof the first time I met Lucas

He was so different back then, bringing me roasted sweet potatoes in the winter and my first pumpkin spice latte in the fall

He once handed out flyers for an entire month just to buy me designer perfume

Even when he nearly got heatstroke, he never complained

I remembered the way he smiled, warm and sincere

Daphne, you deserve the best. If I ever betray you, don’t ever forgive me.” 

When I woke up, my phone was buzzing nonstop, messages flooding in

Alright, Daphne. I’ve sent someone to grab one of your paintings from your studio.” 

You always paint me so wellany of them will work for the wedding.” 

Stop being mad. I already docked Victoria’s bonus this month.” 

She knows she messed up.‘ 

Daphne, where are all the paintings?” 

My assistant found scraps in the shredder.” 

Daphne, pick up the phone!” 

I sighed, barely audible, then declined his call and pulled out my SIM card, tossing it into the trash

Goodbye, Lucas
