Chương 84: The third person in our engagement

"Umezaki Rie, I will love and protect you through all facets of life with all fibers of my being." The light in his eyes and the warmth in his voice nearly shake my heart. "I will become your pillar, your shade in the sun, your umbrella in the rain, your comfort in the winter, and everything that you want me to be. I promise that I will never let the darkness of the world touch you again. I promise to cherish you and make you happy for the rest of our lives together."

I stare at him for a long time, moved by his words and emotions. I have never expected him to speak these words. It doesn't sound fake in any way. I part my lips to take a breath. The way he is looking at me... I have never felt this way before - as if he really treasures me. 

"Ahem." My father nudges my arm. I realize that I have to say something. I didn't prepare any wedding vow. He didn't say anything either. I am unprepared. What to say? I am feeling everyone's eyes on me.

"Same," I tell him with a low voice. "I will try to do the same."

Gazing at me with a deep knowing smile, he slips in the ring into my finger. I feel bad that I can't put even fake sincerity in my words. I don't delay and put the ring on his finger. It's done and over. I can't wait to leave this place.

Kiyohira steps closer to me and places his palms on my cheeks. The moment is quiet and long. An eternity must have passed before he bends down his head and kisses me on the lips. I expect him to pull away, but the shameless man decides to take advantage. He embraces me tightly and kisses me hungrily. I try to push him away. There are freaking people watching us. I am too embarrassed. The idiot keeps his eyes closed and sucks my lips without holding back until I step on his foot. He stumbles backward. I roll my eyes when I see him laugh. This man is something. I swear that there is only one thing in his head.

His goofy smile suddenly vanishes when he looks at someone behind me.

Chisa. 

***

Kiyohira is half-surprised to see Hashimoto Chisa here. He did send an invitation to the Hashimoto family. He didn't expect that anyone would be shameless enough to come to the wedding. They have a financial crisis instigated by him and the engagement was also broken. The bride is certainly not Chisa. 

Hashimoto Chisa has come prepared. The crimson dress is slit up to the mid of her thigh, revealing her long pale leg. She has long diamond earrings on her ears, a diamond necklace to attract attention to her long neck, diamond bangles on her slim wrists, and diamond-studded stilettos. Her posture is proud, tall, and exuding grace. There is a pained look in her eyes and a small smile on her red lips, suggesting ideas in the crowd.

The guests begin to grasp the situation. Kamiyama Kiyohira broke the engagement for the other woman and married that woman right away. The marriage was definitely rushed. The other woman is likely pregnant with his child. They glance at Rie and compare her with Chisa. Why would any man leave this woman for a woman like Rie? Umezaki Rie pales in comparison with Hashimoto Chisa.

Rie has noticed this. There is one thing that Chisa didn't consider. Umezaki Rie is not a normal woman. If Chisa has wanted to shame Rie as another woman, Rie would take that role gladly.

"Thank you for coming. I didn't think that you would have the face to come to my wedding." She wraps her arm around Kiyohira possessively with an arrogant smile on her face. 

"I apologize that my husband suddenly broke the engagement. You must have been shocked. What can I do? He begged me to marry him. Out of pity, I said yes. You know that feelings can't be forced and how men are. You shouldn't shamelessly pursue a man who doesn't have any feeling for you. Thanks to me, you got a second chance to find love. Otherwise, you would have ended up in a loveless marriage and get divorced a few years later. A woman should know when to give up."

The guests gawk at the woman. They never thought that she would openly reveal it that she snatched Kiyohira away from Chisa. She is talking like she did a favor by taking away Kiyohira from Chisa.

Chisa grits her teeth. However, Rie's little trick doesn't make her lose calm. "So, you admit that you were the third person in our engagement."


Chương 85: The moment I heard you cursing

"Am I a third person?" Rie turns to Kiyohira beside her, slightly leaning on him and raising her chin toward him. He puts his arm around her waist to support her. She's doing her best to stop her body from trembling in fear, but Kiyohira can feel it. Tensed and sweaty, Rie smiles at him. "Kiyohira, when did you fall for me?"

He didn't expect that she would ask that question. When did he fall for her? All the moments between them have been intense and heart shaking. When did his heart move for the first time? 

"The moment I heard you cursing my father and my stepmother at their funeral." His voice is neither low nor high. Rie gapes at him dumbly. Chisa also furrows her brows. The guests don't know what to make of it. Both husband and wife are abnormal. Takeshi rubs his forehead and walks to the side. His brother couldn't think of a more romantic moment to speak on the day of the wedding. Seriously who talks about a funeral at the wedding? Kamiyama Kiyohira does. 

But Kiyohira is being honest. That was the first time. He had never seen a daring woman like her. She said what was in her mind. There was no doubt that she was wronged. She didn't have fear. She complained to the people who owed her. Though she did infuriate him that day, he is glad that her curse was pretty ineffective. He is Kamiyama Shintaro's son after all.

"That was before the engagement." Rie maintains her calm with difficulty. "I guess that this idiot man still got engaged to you. Still, I will let you have your way to offer some peace for your wronged heart. I am the third person. Your fiance abandoned you and came to me. By the way, if you were capable of moving his heart, he wouldn't have looked for the third person."

Chisa releases a breath, looking at her with a dangerous glint in her eyes. Rie is shamelessly accepting her blames, but turning it around in a way that she's the one who is affected. Now, people are looking at them both, thinking there must be a reason if Kiyohira left her for Rie. Who would leave Chisa if there was no flaw in her? She's still an abandoned woman.

"Rie Chan, you are right. Men easily fall for other women. The loser is the woman who loves him genuinely." Chisa smiles at her contemptuously. "I heard that you lost your child in that accident when he was still engaged to me. I pray that something like that does not happen to you again."

Kiyohira and Rie didn't think that she would mention it blatantly on their wedding. Rie's body turns cold as the memories from that night resurface in her mind. Seeing her face turn ghastly pale, he supports her, helping her stay still. Rie clenches her teeth to not give in to her fears. He looks at Chisa with a dark gaze, ready to burn her alive right at that moment. If Rie hasn't been leaning on him for support, he would have shown her hell right away.

"Hashimoto Chisa."

Seeing the promises that he made to her when their eyes meet, Chisa smirks at him. There is no reason to pretend. She knows that her facade is long broken in front of him. He will never look at her the same. 

"Once again, I congratulate you for the union of your love. May you find happiness in your future."

She walks out of the wedding hall proudly, excited after seeing Rie's reaction. His little toy is not completely gone. There is still some hope. She will play with both of them gladly and see what they can do. It's a declaration of war.

After she is gone, Rie closes her eyes. She fists her hands. Her father rushes to her. "This is not good. We have to take her out of here."

Kiyohira ignores the eyes of everyone and carries her out of the place. Her father also gets on the car. Her father injects her with medication. Rie falls into a deeper sleep. Her breathing and temperature become even.

"Nobody knew about the loss of the child other than us." Her father stares at Kiyohira, "Is that the woman who hurt my daughter?"

Kiyohira doesn't answer him. He watches Rie's face. There are creases on her forehead. He smoothens them out one by one. "Will she ever get over this?"

Her father sighs tiredly. "Only if she wants to."

Only if she wants to. When one is too used to suffering, they won't hold the light even if they are offered. The last two years without memories cannot take away 26 years of solitude and pain. She has been through too much. What does she want to do now? What should he do to offer peace to her heart? She's his priority. Nothing else matters when it comes to her.
