Nancy's POV:
My wedding with Liam proceeded as scheduled.
Many wealthy, influential people came to the wedding. It was a truly big event.
Once I had changed into the wedding dress, I hid in the dressing room, thinking of the past.
After Charles had hurt me, I was heartbroken. I went to a bar to get drunk.
And when I did get drunk, I ended up having sex with Liam.
Not long after, I found out that I was pregnant.
At the time, Nick's company was in a pinch and was in dire need of financing.
My only choice was to speak to Liam and convince him to finance Nick's company, and in exchange, I would get married to him.
Now that the wedding was being held as scheduled, I suddenly felt reluctant to go through with it.
I wasn't sure if I was marrying the right person, and I was uncertain if this marriage would bring me happiness in the future.
At this time, the door of the dressing room was suddenly pushed open.
Raina walked in and said, "Nancy, almost all of the guests are here. Are you ready to go out there?"
"Yup! Ready as I'll ever be," I replied with a smile, adjusting my mood.
"After you and Liam get married, you and I will finally become family, Nancy!" Raina held my hand gleefully.
"Thank you, Raina." I held her hand as well, and smiled back.
"Liam is a good person. I'm sure he'll treat you well. I hope you can finally move on from the past as soon as you can," Raina remarked kindly. When I saw the worry and agitation in her eyes, I replied, "I've already let go of the past. There's no need to worry, Raina. I won't do anything that could be harmful to both of our families."
Raina breathed a sigh of relief and took me out.
During the ceremony, I slowly made my way towards Liam while holding the bridal bouquet.
In terms of family background and appearance, Liam was clearly an excellent man.
But for some reason, I always get the feeling that he was being indifferent towards me.
I suppressed my bitters and completed the wedding ceremony with a smile on my face.
After exchanging the rings, the guests' blessings and congratulations resonated throughout the hall.
As I stared at Liam's handsome face, I suddenly felt like I was in the clouds.
Suddenly, a sharp, angry voice broke the happy atmosphere of the wedding.
"Liam, you bastard!"
All the guests turned their attention to the woman who shouted.
I looked towards the direction the sound came from and saw a pregnant woman walking out of the crowd, holding a sharp knife.
"Cassie?" Liam's eyes widened, visibly shocked.
"Liam, if you go through with this marriage, our child and I will die right in front of you!" Cassie pointed the knife at her own stomach. It seemed that she was serious about her threat.
Liam let go of my hand, approached the woman, looking absolutely devastated.
"Cassie, what do you want?"
"You told me that you'd marry me, Liam. Why are you marrying another woman?" Cassie asked, visibly displeased.
"Stop messingaround, Cassie. Putthe knifedown!" Liam exclaimed.
"No! Unless you walk out on your wedding with this woman, I will not put the knife down!" Cassie cried. It seemed that she was determined to go through with her threat.
The moment I heard this, I was dumbfounded.
I turned my attention to Gary to ask for his help, only to find that he, too, looked bothered.
The pain and disbelief of being cheated on overcame my heart. I burst into tears.
"Liam, what the hell is going on?" I asked while sobbing.
"It's not what it looks like," said Liam.
"Then who is the father of her baby?" I asked back.
Cassie looked like she was around seven to eight months pregnant.
