📕Engagement banquet:he gave the family brooch to Dad’s illegitimate daughter.I ended it on the spot.

00:00 Story 1: My father brought home his abandoned illegitimate daughter. She was like a blazing flame—vibrant, passionate, and entirely different from me, the sheltered greenhouse rose raised by rules and propriety. Father lavished all his affection on her, and several of my cousins willingly revolved around her, eagerly listening to her tales of the bustling streets and alleys. Even my fiancé, Darien, though he often claimed she was "wild and unruly, lacking proper manners," would, at every family dinner, find his gaze inadvertently drawn to her radiant presence. At our grand engagement banquet, he stood at the center of attention, improvising a performance of his most cherished original composition, "Starry Day." It had once been a melody that belonged only to us. But now, his gentle, focused gaze bypassed me and landed squarely on her, sitting in the corner. Even when the music concluded, he took off the blue diamond brooch—a heirloom of the Darien family, passed down through generations to the eldest daughter-in-law—and pinned it onto her collar. "This shade of blue complements your spirit perfectly." I lowered my head, my fingers brushing silently over the diamond necklace he had just given me. Cold, luxurious—yet it bore no connection to his earlier promise to pluck the stars from the sky for me. It was as if he remembered her love for sky-blue but had forgotten that I was allergic to diamonds. Whispers of astonishment and gossip swirled around me. I lifted my gaze, my voice calm and unruffled: "Darien, we shall break off the engagement." His smile froze instantly, as though he had heard the most absurd joke. His voice rose, tinged with both anger and disbelief: "Stella, you're going to ruin all these years of our relationship over a brooch?" "Yes." My response was soft as falling feathers, yet resolute. 51:32 Story 2: After Eight Years of Marriage On her Moments, my husband’s secretary posted a photo of herself driving his limited-edition sports car, with the caption: “What my boyfriend can’t give me, my boss can!” I just commented, “Don’t let this affect your work,” only to find myself blocked by her. Immediately, my husband called and lashed out at me without hesitation: “Can’t I just lend my car to Epiphany for a drive? Is it really necessary for you to send someone to confront her? Do you know she almost got into a car accident just now? She called me, sobbing in fear! How could you be so vicious? I warn you, stop being unreasonable!” He hung up the phone without letting me explain. That night, my husband’s secretary drove that very car, hit me—who was two months pregnant—and dragged me for over ten meters. The pain left me unable to make a sound, and blood spread uncontrollably beneath me. Passersby rushed me to the hospital for emergency treatment. Right before I was wheeled into the operating room, Epiphany sent me a photo of herself picking up a new Porsche. I knew this was Lucian’s “compensation” for her. But this time, I didn’t care anymore. I turned to the doctor beside me and spoke slowly: “I don’t want the baby anymore. Terminate the pregnancy.” #romance #tragiclovestory #lovestory #romance #tragiclovestory #romance #lovestory #shortstory #shortstory #webnovel #audiobook #shortstories #audiobooks #engsub #novels romantic story#short story#romantic love story telling#romantic audio novel#short novels#audiobook# short love story#audio story short#novels explained#my marriage story#audiobooks stories#short love story telling#relationship stories
