Sophies eyes turned red with emotion as she nodded excitedly.
Yes! Ill marry you! Ill marry you a hundred times! The surrounding camera crew immediately erupted into cheers.
Congratulations! Inside the car, Luna watched the scene unfold with a cold expression, her entire body numb.
When Simon proposed to her five years ago, he was just as heartfelt.
He had worn a sharp black suit, held a bouquet of vibrant roses, and presented her with a meticulously prepared engagement ring.
Back then, he even choked up while proposing.
Lulu, youre the only woman Ill ever love in this lifetime.
There will be no other women in my heart.
I beg you, please marry me.
I swear, Ill end myself if I ever cheat.
Luna let out a bitter laugh until tears started to fall suddenly.
It turned out everything was a lie.

The promises, too, were lies.
Even his so-called sincerity was fleeting and ever-changing.
Looking at Luna with concern, Clover gently asked, Theyve left.
Should we follow them? Lets go, Luna said, lowering her gaze and slowly turning to look out the window.
She wanted to see where Simon and Sophie were heading next.
The Bentley pulled up in front of a Westonian restaurant an hour later.
The restaurant was located in the most bustling part of the city and had window-side seating that was notoriously difficult to reserve.
Since it wasnt mealtime, there were only a few diners.
Each table in the restaurant was separated by screens, providing privacy.
It was clear that Simon had taken great precautions.
Seeing Simon and Sophie walk into the restaurant, Luna first went to the shop next door and bought a more mature-looking outfit.
After donning a mask and a large hat, she slowly made her way into the restaurant.
Clover had already taken care of everything by paying to secure the table behind Simons.
As the two of them sat down, a middle-aged couple, guided by a waiter, was seated at Simons table.
The couple appeared to be in their 50s and looked like ordinary people.
On closer inspection, however, the middle-aged woman bore a 50% resemblance to Sophie.
Dont tell me Simon is meeting Sophies parents! Clover exclaimed in surprise.
Luna remained expressionless as she took out her phone.
Finding the perfect angle, she quickly snapped a few photos through the gap in the screen.
Her timing was impeccable; she captured the moment Simon handed a black card to Sophies mother.
This scumbag sure knows how to spend big, Clover muttered angrily.
Lunas tear-filled eyes lowered slightly as she slowly put down her phone.
She recalled how Simon had also presented an unlimited black card to show his sincerity when he met her parents for the first time years ago.
But her parents had firmly refusedthey didnt want to sell their daughter.
Now, the same move was being repeated.
Lets go, Luna stated.
She didnt want to stay there for even one more second.
The two made their way down to the first floor.
Clover offered to take Luna home, but Luna shook her head.
Clover, my minds a mess right now.
I just want to be alone for a while.
Hearing that, Clover didnt push further but repeatedly reminded her to stay safe before leaving.
After Clover left, Luna wandered the streets alone.
The outdoor temperature had dropped to 30.2°F.
Luna was wearing only a thin coat.
However, the chill on her body was nothing compared to the cold in her heart.
She didnt know how long she had been walking when her phone suddenly vibrated.
It was a message from Simon.
As Luna opened the message, three wedding photos immediately appeared on her phone screen.
