Chapter 15
“Mr. Phillips, your dad had a heart attack and was rushed to the hospital, and your mom’s heart condition has relapsed. She’s been hospitalized as well. You need to come back and
check on them!”
Ruben immediately panicked, hung up the phone, and rushed to the hospital.
I cursed him inwardly.
“Ruben’s not a decent person! He deserves it!”
In one night, the Phillips family underwent a complete upheaval.
The chairman of Phillips and his wife were both hospitalized, their stocks plummeted, and the company faced a severe internal crisis, on the brink of bankruptcy.
Since that day, I didn’t pay attention to any more news about Ruben.
In my mind, he had turned into a complete madman.
The once gentle and refined image of him had long been erased from my heart.
After finishing the media and makeup training courses, I enrolled in a dance class for
myself.
Aside from dating Hector and managing my account, I spent all my time in
studio.
A week later, my best friend sent me a piece of news:
the dance
“Phillips Group is about to marry into the King Group. The engagement date is set for next

I stared at the news for a long time.
A strange feeling stirred inside me.

While Ruben was on stage exchanging rings with the King family’s daughter,
Hector and I posted our own official announcement about getting our marriage certificate:
Me: “I’m glad you came.”
He: “I’m glad I came
Guests in the audience lowered their heads to scroll through their phones, quietly
discussing:
“Ahhh, my little couple just got their marriage license! So sweet!”
“Ahhh, they’ll be together forever!TM
“They’re so sweet! I’m going to repost this on Instagram!”
Ruben, confused, glanced at the audience, then called his assistant over.
“What’s going on?”
His assistant stammered.
“Speak!”
