�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 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�� JrNovels.com
