Marry My Ex's Sworn Enemy

Chapter 3: Apparently, I'm Not Good Enough untless

Under the gaze of eyes and cameras, even several live streams with thousands of viewers, Julian kissed

Seraphina, tender and passionate.

Sonya was a mere backdrop, looking superfluous and ridiculous.

"See? You happy now?" Julian, seething, gestured towards the paparazzi and reporters crowding the

doorway."Want to hear our love story? Fine, I'll give it to you! I've been secretly in love with Seraphina since

junior high. I told her how | felt after high school, and we've been together for eight years! She's the only woman

| love, whether it's past, present, or future! I'll give her wedding of the century. Only Seraphina is worthy of my

love, remember that!"

A huge declaration, witnessed by countless people online and offline.

"Wow..."

The sharp applause was jarring. All eyes turned to the source.

Sonya, in her white coat, looked refined and beautiful. Her hair was short, her aura clean and restrained.

She clapped, smiling. Inspired by her, the paparazzi, reporters, and onlookers began to clap along.

Julian looked at Sonya, his eyes flickering with a hint of guilt.

"That Was SO

beautiful. Congratulations

Julian's face hardened.

"Save it. We don't need your blessing!"

said calmly.

He grabbed Seraphina and stormed out. The paparazzi and onlookers followed, leaving the office. silent.

Sonya sat down, clutching her aching back. She lifted her shirt to reveal two large bruises. Near the end of the

shift, Sonya's phone buzzed. It was 11. new friend request. I'm Henry Sullivan."

Henry Sullivan?

It took Sonya a moment to place him. She'd only spoken to him twice on the phone. As his future wife, she

should friend him on WhatsApp. With that thought, she accepted his request. Facing the blank chat screen,

Sonya didn't know what to say. After a while, she exited WhatsApp, gathered her things, and left.

It was dark outside. As she was about to hail a cab, a black Maybach pulled up. The window rolled down. Leo

grinned, waving to her."Sonya, Jake's new bar is having its grand opening tonight, and he askedto pick you

up."

Leo emphasized the word "asked. Then he chuckled.

Leo Jones and Jake Parker were Julian's childhood friends, and Sonya got along with them. Thus, she couldn't just

say no.

In the car, Leo handed her a bottle of water.

Sonya opened the bottle and took a few sips. She'd seen the video of the party-Julian's proposal, and Leo's

enthusiastic cheers:"Marry him! Marry him!"

"It's kind of a tradition for her birthday, right? I didn't take it seriously, and | guess Julian didn't either. Who knew

Seraphina would actually say yes? Of course, there's a reason she did. Still, it's not fair to you." "Thank you for

saying that."

"Uh, Julian was really just trying to help Seraphina."

"As a friend, if | asked you to choose betweenand Seraphina, who would you pick?

Leo didn't hesitate. You, of course!"

Sonya laughed. "Even if you're lying, | appreciate it."

Leo shook his head. "I'm not lying. I've known Seraphina longer, but | prefer being friends with you."

"Well, that's why you pickedup. Let's not talk about Julian anymore. I'm done with him." Leo stuck out his

tongue."People say things they don't mean when they're upset." Sonya frowned. He thought she was just

sulking, not really breaking up with Julian? Jake's new bar was tucked away in a courtyard, its back wall painted

with opera masks. There was a small pond in the center, lanterns hanging from the veranda. It was quiet and

atmospheric. Leo pointed to a room at the east end and went to the restroom.

Sonya approached the room. Just as she was about to open the door, she heard Julian shouting. who wanted to

Sonya took a deep breath and opened the door.

Jake rushed to greet her."Sonya, I'm so glad you came."

She'd brought a gift for the opening-a lucky cat figurine.

"Congratulations. Wish you success."

Jake accepted the gift. Thank you."

He winked at Julian, then turned to Sonya."Have a seat. | need to greet sguests.

Julian blocked her path, looking impatient.
