Life had regained its happiness and tranquility, but beneath this calm, there were raging undercurrents.
And those undercurrents might suddenly rise up without warning, turning into a fierce storm that would obliterate everything.
...
In the blink of an eye, only five days remained until Ethan Jenkins and Jesslyn Derei's wedding.
During these days, Ethan did not let Jesslyn stay overnight in his room anymore, saying that there were taboos a newly married couple must observe.
Jesslyn was very obedient, of course, she followed everything Ethan said.
However, she did not know that this was just an excuse Ethan was using to conceal his physical condition.
He had been getting sick every night recently.
The amount of medication had started small, but had multiplied several times over.
Every night, he was tormented by sickness.
It was truly painful...
Painful to the point of wishing death!
