I turned to look at him, my expression serious.
“Itai, you’ve tried several times to steal my nephew’s girlfriend. This isn’t right, is it?”
Itai suddenly grabbed my hand.
“Leila, what I want has never been your nephew’s girlfriend, but you. When he was with you, he couldn’t forget Leela, which is why I want to fight for
I’m unmarried, and it’s my first marriage. We know each other well. Right now, you need a spouse, and I’m your best choice, aren’t I?”
Ason told me to refuse, but my grandfather didn’t have much time left, and I couldn’t think of anyone more suitable than Itai.
I agreed.
Itat was thrilled and immediately suggested I move out of Piotr’s apartment.
responded with a simple “Hmm,” I had already packed my things.
I took my suitcase down, and from now on, there would be no more ties with Piotr.
Ital drove me back to my place.
Comcidentally, my parents saw us. They began interrogating me, asking if he was my boyfriend.
I stayed silent for a moment, then nodded, silently acknowledging it.
My mom squeezed my hand.
“He seems like a good boy, talented and handsome. Let’s bring him to see your grandfather soon, pick an auspicious date, and get married. Let your grandfather see you get married.”
My roue was hoarse.
the next half month. Itai appeared every day at my door and outside my office building, claiming it was to build our relationship.
My parents grew more and more satisfied with him. After hearing his promise to take care of me, they took us both to the hospital.
On my grandfather’s inspital bed after seeing Itai and I holding hands, he nodded in approval

Itai looked at me gently and held my hand.
“Are you worried my parents won’t agree? Leila, how about you meet them tomorrow?”
I nodded. Sooner or later, we would get married, and I would meet his parents.
The next morning. I woke up early to get dressed and made myself presentable. My parents also handed me the gifts they had prepared.
When we arrived at the Brown family home, I was still a little nervous. Itai patted me on the shoulder, signaling me not to be afraid.
When Grandpa heard that Itai was bringing his girlfriend home, he spent the entire day smiling from ear to ear.
At dinner, when Itai mentioned that we were getting married next month, it seemed rushed. However, when he mentioned it was because of my grandfather’s regret, Grandpa immediately agreed and promised to give us a grand wedding.
er dinner, Grandpa wanted to speak with Itai alone and told me to wander around the house.
I walked through the garden, squatting by the pond to watch the fish.
“Leila Hall, I can’t believe it’s really you. You’re so shameless.”
I turned around and saw Leela standing behind me.
I had no interest in arguing with Leela, so I was about to turn away, but she suddenly grabbed my arm.
“Leila, you’re just a substitute. You know Piotr and I are getting married, yet you still act as a mistress, don’t you?”
Before I could explain. I heard footsteps approaching.
Leela whispered in my ear:
“If you and I both fell into the water, who do you think Piotr would save?”
Before I could respond, she pulled me into the pond.
I couldn’t swim and instinctively began flailing.
By the time Piotr arrived, he saw both Leela and I crying out for help.
Atthat moment, I also saw Piotr. He seemed surprised but didn’t hesitate to jump into the water and swim toward Leela.
My body slowly sank, and I no longer had the strength to struggle.
Just as I was ready to accept my fate, someone suddenly lifted me up by the waist.
I gasped for air in Ital’s arms, but I noticed he was trembling, his arms tightly holding me.
I raised my hand to hold him
“I’m fine.”
After 1 regained my composure. I walked toward Piotr, who was holding a trembling, pitiful looking Leela
