The Wedding Dress that Ruined Everything novel Chapter 43
Chapter 2
Wayne’s face became impatient.
“Because of Carina? As I mentioned before, she is the sister of my good friend. I just take care of her because her brother entrusted her to me before he went abroad. I can’t just go back on my word, can 17
“Besides, if there were something between me and her, I wouldn’t be with you
Every time I had a slight suspicion about their relationship, Wayne would refute me with this sentence.
five years.
I had heard it countless times in the past fi
If I hadn’t accidentally seen his phone, I would never have realized that the person I had shared a bed with for seven years sent messages to a girl named Carina every day for the past five years.
They did things that only couples did.
He hadn’t even done some of those things with me, his lawful wife,
They were the domineering CEO and the pretty secretary.
Everyone knew that they had a good relationship, even their colleagues at the company would tease Carina as Wayne’s lover.
At first, Wayne would pretend to be displeased and scold them, but later he became smilingly acquiescent.
I used to be hysterical before, but in the end, all I got were impatient remarks from him.
“Just a few jokes, Why all the fuss? No one is trying to steal your position, Mrs. Reid!”
I hit my lip,
closed my eyes, and then said, “I got tired of listening to this.
“Don’t you like Carina? If you sign it, you can be openly together with her
“You don’t have to explain to me every time that she is your good friend’s sister.”
“Allison! When did I ever say that I liked her?”
Wayne suddenly snatched the divorce agreement.
“And where can you go after divorcing me? You are already 30 years old, having been a full–time housewide for seven years, with a low educational background and no work experience. Who will hire you? How will you get the money to support yourself?
His words were like a heavy hammer, smashing down hard on my heart.
The year I graduated from college, I had intended to start a business with Wayne.
Unexpectedly, I became pregnant.
The doctor said that my body was weak, and if I had an abortion, it would cause significant harm to my body, and it might be difficult for me to conceive a child in the future.
For the sake of my well–being, Wayne decided to keep the child.
And I tended to have miscarriages, so I could only rest at home.
One year later, his company successfully went publie
At that time, he knelt down on one knee and put a diamond ring on me, promising me a grand wedding
He turned around and then turned back to ask me, “By the way, where is that pink gift box?“*
“Okay.”
“By the way, I ordered an ice cream cake. Remember to sign for it. I will hurry back as soon as possible to celebrate our anniversary with you.”
So he still remembered that today was our seventh wedding anniversary
But he forgot that today was the first day of my menstrual period, so I couldn’t eat ice cream.
I knew what was inside the pink gift box he took away.
This morning, I opened it with joy, thinking that it was a surprise specially prepared for me by Wayne.
However, I saw the words written on the greeting card.
“Carina, this is the medicine I had someone bring back from Peroland. If you take it during your menstrual perind, you won’t feel any pain.“”
The word “Carina” fiercely pierced my heart, causing intense palis
Suddenly, there seemed to be a surge of warmth through my stomach.
Wrapped in warmth, 1 gantly caressed my belly.
The next second, a scene that I had never experienced before flashed through my mind, appearing out of nowhere as if it had happened for real.
I saw that the 17–year–old Wayne blushed, placed a glass of steaming sugar water in front of the 17–year–old me, hurriedly turned around, and ran away Slowly, this memory started to become old and faded, no longer preserved clearly in my mind.
I took out my phone and looked at Wayne on the screen, full of surprise.
Could the 17–year–old Wayne change the past and influence the present?

The readers' comments on the novel: The Wedding Dress that Ruined Everything
Ch 50 Beginning of 4th Short story. Only 1 page. Incomplete. Summary from reading elsewhere: The world’s perfect couple. Husband is famous CEO who deals in jewelry and designed signature pieces for his beloved and doted on wife. To the world, and to her, they are they perfect loving couple, until she finds out he is having an affair with his Secretary. I can’t remember if it was a physical one or emotional (I can’t recall the correct name for it) one. Long story short, since she told him when she first agreed to be with him that if he ever betrayed her she would disappear from his world, she staged her suicide whilst exposing his affair (I think he also made custom designs for that woman or let her wear his signature piece for her) to the world. She moved abroad and opened a flower shop or something. He eventually finds her but I think she had quietly started dating someone else. Trying not to mix up stories. End the end, she doesn’t go back, he is miserable and regrets, I think he works himself to death, dies early and leaves everything to her....
Ch 49 End of Short Story 3. Too Late to Regret, I’ll call it. I like that she didn’t change her mind and she had valid points because even after realizing Carina’s presence and neediness and his catering to her ruined his family, he still hasn’t sent her packing. He could have had another friend hire her as a Secretary after regaining all the memories, but even after losing his wife and son behind his dealings with her and neglect of his wife and how he started to see her, he still indulged this woman and kept her on. I don’t like how the child isn’t mentioned in the end or how Wayne ended up in the end....
Ch 48 Oh, I like how this went. They both remain the same age but their circumstances changed… well hers did, and they just popped into the life they would have had. But that means theirs a child somewhere without parents but with his memories intact of who his parents were supposed to be since they kept their bodies....
Ch 47 Nope. No need....
Ch 46 Well that took long enough…...
Ch 45 Was it a voice recording or video?...
If the changes he made back then affect her now, why aren’t these feelings she’s invoking in him reflecting in the current Wayne?...
H 43, so… he asked his wife about a gift box for a gift that belongs to his not lover on their anniversary? He doesn’t find it odd that she knew where it was and since it was pink she would think it was for her? He thinks she needs him so he can do whatever he wants. I’m already not liking her thinking to make him change their past to fix their future. Leave him. He had the opportunity to do things right the first 7 sevens and correct mistakes in the last 5 with Carina....
Ch 25 End of 2nd book Letting Go, I’ll call it....
Ch 37 Didn’t they already exchange contacts earlier at the private room....
