Left At The Altar, She Became The Bride Of His Arch-Nemesis
💥Full story in:https://eng.moboreader.com/1Efq5d/CFVS
On my wedding day, my fiancé left me on a highway for his 'real love.'
My family didn't even show up — they were celebrating my adopted sister instead.
So I tore off my veil.
I stopped his arch-nemesis's car.
And I asked him to marry me.
He didn't just say yes — he drove me straight back to the ceremony and crashed it.
Now my ex is begging for another chance.
Too late. I'm his brother's wife now. 💔🔥

*"Cole... something's wrong with me. My chest hurts so bad. Can you take me to the hospital?"*
I sat beside my fiancé in the car, wearing my wedding dress, on our way to the ceremony. And I heard every word through his phone speaker.
Kendra Todd. The woman who always found a way to pull him away — using the same excuse, over and over.
*"I can't make it today,"* Cole said, his tone distant. *"I already told Sam to head over. Just tell him what you need."*
On the other end, Kendra's voice came thin and shaky. *"I know you're getting married today. So this is it for us, right? We won't talk anymore?"*
My fingers slowly curled into the fabric of my dress. I had seen this play out too many times. Would our wedding day be any different?
*"That's not how it is,"* Cole said, shifting uneasily. *"You've always mattered to me more than anyone else. That won't change."*
He hung up. He fidgeted. He checked his phone, then shut it off.
I watched him. The light in my eyes slowly faded.
Even if our engagement had only been arranged — he was still the one person who had ever treated me with any kindness after I returned to the Fowler family. Even though I knew he still kept Kendra close, I couldn't let go. That small bit of warmth was all I had.
*"Pull over. Right there!"*
Cole's sharp voice cut through my thoughts.
*"What's so urgent that it can't wait until after the ceremony?"* I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.
*"Evelyn, why are you making this difficult? Something came up at the company."*
The lie hit me like a blade.
*"You're going to Kendra again, aren't you? You said that would be the last time!"*
His hand on my shoulder went rigid. *"Kendra's not doing well. Can't you try to understand?"*
*"You're really about to leave your own wedding — for her — and you still expect me to be okay with it?"*
*"Don't be like this. I'll make it up to you later. A bigger wedding, alright?"*
*"Everyone in Slomery is already there! How am I supposed to face them alone?"*
His tone dropped to something cold. *"Why do you keep pushing this? Kendra has no one but me. If something happens to her, can you live with that?"*
For a moment, I couldn't move.
*"Step out of the car."*
The driver hesitated. *"Mr. Bennett, we're on a highway. It's not safe —"*
*"Pull over. Now!"*
The car slowed. The door unlocked.
*"Get out."*
I lifted my chin. *"If I walk away from this car today, there's nothing left between us."*
He brushed it off. *"Just wait for me. Once I've handled things with Kendra, I'll come back for you."*
I looked at him one last time. Then I gathered my dress, stepped out, and let the door close behind me.
That last look I gave him — something in Cole sank. But he pushed the thought aside. I had no one else. The Fowler family never truly cared about me. I couldn't walk away from this marriage.
He was wrong.

# # # THE HIGHWAY
Still in my wedding dress, I moved along the highway. Cars sped past me. The wind sent my veil flying wildly behind me.
A trace of coldness settled across my face. I reached up — and tore the veil away in one sharp motion.
From a distance, a red Ferrari convertible came into view. I lifted my arm and stopped it.
The car screeched to a halt, its side brushing the edge of my dress.
The man behind the wheel looked me over — his sharp eyes taking in every detail. A faint smirk curved his lips.
Shane Bennett. Cole's half-brother. His arch-nemesis.
*"Evelyn, are you trying to throw your life away on your wedding day?"*
I met his gaze. And I leaned closer.
*"Shane, will you marry me?"*
For a brief moment, he paused. Then a grin spread across his face.
*"Today is supposed to be your big day with Cole. Yet you're asking me. Tell me — what's in it for me?"*
*"Wouldn't you like to help me shake up the Bennett family?"*
The past between Shane and that family was never simple. His mother had been called Hank Bennett's mistress. She raised him alone overseas until she took her own life. When Shane returned, he built an empire from nothing — and the Bennetts never forgave him for it.
A faint edge crept into his expression. *"So this is you trying to make use of me?"*
A small smile touched my lips. *"We both get something out of this."*
I stepped back. *"If it doesn't interest you —"*
Before I could finish, the Ferrari backed up and stopped beside me. The door opened. He lifted me into his chest.
*"What are you doing?"*
*"I'm taking you to your wedding. Let's go make things interesting for the Bennetts."*

# # # THE CRASH
The red Ferrari tore through the ceremony venue. Guards tried to stop us. Shane just drove faster.
The engine roared. A loud crash followed as the wedding display was knocked aside. Screams broke out all at once. The Ferrari spun into a sharp drift and stopped right before the flower arch.
Once people recognized who sat inside, murmurs spread through the venue.
*"Has Shane lost his mind?"*
*"Look at the passenger seat — isn't that the bride?"*
Cole's mother, Sharon, turned pale. *"This is Cole's wedding! Who gave you the right to come here and make a scene?"*
I leaned casually against the car door. *"Things have changed. The man I'm marrying now is Shane."*
Chaos erupted.
*"She really thinks she can just switch grooms?"*
*"She's barely acknowledged by the Fowler family. They're off celebrating their adopted daughter instead!"*
Sharon's voice rose sharply. *"What makes you think Shane would ever choose you?"*
Shane's arm rested lazily along the car door. *"I don't see anything wrong with what's happening."*
The color drained from Sharon's face. She turned to Hank. *"He's doing this to sabotage the wedding!"*
Hank's authority crumbled. *"You should leave."*
Shane smiled, but there was no warmth. *"Seems like working with Crown Company doesn't interest you anymore."*
That single remark choked off Hank's anger. Shane had taken control of the Bennett Group and pushed it to the top — without relying on anyone. No one could afford to cross him now.
*"Since you're already here,"* Hank said through clenched teeth, *"the ceremony will proceed."*
*"What?!"* Sharon turned to him. *"You're just going to let this happen?"*
She looked at me with pure hatred. *"Evelyn, don't even think about going through with this!"*
I smiled calmly. *"Why not call Cole and ask him yourself? If he's willing to come back, he can still take his place as the groom."*
Sharon lashed out. *"You must've been seeing Shane behind Cole's back!"*
I pulled out my phone and dialed Cole. On speaker.
His irritated voice rang across the silent venue. *"I already told you, I'm staying with Kendra. I'm not marrying you today. If you keep calling, I'll block you!"*
A cold laugh slipped from me. *"Cole, whether you show up or not, this wedding isn't getting canceled."*
He responded in a mocking tone. *"Who else would even marry you if it's not me? Go ahead and find someone else. I'd actually appreciate it."*
The line went dead. An odd silence settled over the entire venue.
Sharon struggled to breathe — then collapsed where she stood.
I smiled. *"Thank you, everyone, for attending my wedding with Shane."*
The Ferrari's engine roared.

# # # THE HUSBAND
*"I appreciate this,"* I said as we drove away. *"You can drop me off here."*
Shane kept his hands steady on the wheel. *"We're not done yet. We make it official. I become your husband — in name and in record."*
By the time we stepped out of City Hall, I stood there with the document in my hands, staring at it. It didn't feel real.
Before I could process it, the paper was taken from my fingers.
*"Come on."*
*"Where are we going?"*
*"I did you a favor. Now you return it."*
---
# # # THE CASINO
Gilded Spire. The place where Slomery's wealthiest gathered.
*"I didn't expect you to spend time in places like this."*
Shane shut the door. *"I had business here. Marrying you set me back."*
*"Then I suppose I owe you my thanks."*
Amusement showed in his expression. *"Don't mention it."*
Inside, staff greeted us. Someone leaned close to Shane and murmured something. A slight crease formed between his brows.
He turned to me. *"That dress isn't suited for this place. I'll have someone bring you a change."*
The staff guided me toward the first-floor casino. *"Mrs. Bennett, Mr. Bennett asked me to let you know — you're free to play as much as you like. Any winnings are yours. Losses are his."*
*"It's fine. I'll just wait."*
I turned toward the lounge — and someone caught my wrist.
Cole stood there, irritation clear on his face. *"Evie, what are you doing here?"*
Behind him, his friends chimed in with open mockery.
*"Ms. Fowler couldn't stay away, could she? Chased him in her wedding dress!"*
Kendra stepped closer to Cole and offered me a soft, fake smile. *"Ms. Fowler, showing up here in your wedding dress must be quite troublesome."*
Cole's forehead creased. *"Didn't I already tell you to go back home? Cornering me like this isn't going to change anything!"*
The situation was so ridiculous I almost laughed. He had left me on the roadside, skipped our ceremony — just to bring Kendra here to *relax*.
With a swift motion, I pulled my wrist free. *"I didn't come here for you."*
Jeffrey laughed. *"Come on, Ms. Fowler. You show up dressed like that — and you expect us to believe you're not here for Cole? What else — you came here to gamble?"*
*"She's still a Fowler by name, yet she throws away her pride just to chase him. That's just embarrassing."*
Kendra tugged at Cole's arm. *"This is really on me. If I hadn't fallen ill, you wouldn't have delayed your wedding. Since Ms. Fowler came all this way — you should go back with her."*
Cole's restraint finally snapped. *"Evelyn, do you really have to corner me like this? Kendra isn't well! I already said I'll marry you. What does one day even change?"*
Jeffrey chimed in again. *"She's scared you'll walk away, Cole! Even her own family wants nothing to do with her! Clinging to you is the only thing she's got left!"*
Kendra turned to me with a soft expression. *"Ms. Fowler, don't take it to heart. They're only teasing."*
Cole grabbed my arm and started pulling me toward the exit. *"I'll have someone take you back."*
I resisted. *"Let go of me!"*
His grip tightened. *"We'll deal with this after I'm done. Don't make a bigger scene."*
Then someone stepped into their path.
A man in a sharp suit. Marc Gordon — connected to the owner of Gilded Spire.
Cole's demeanor shifted. *"Mr. Gordon, I apologize if we caused any disturbance. I'll take her out —"*
Marc didn't let him finish.
He turned to me and gave a polite nod. *"You must be Mrs. Bennett. My boss has asked me to bring you upstairs."*
---
# # # THE UPSTAIRS
Cole's face went pale. *"Mrs. Bennett?"*
I smiled. *"I told you, Cole. I wasn't here for you."*
I walked past him — past Kendra, past his friends, past every mocking face — and followed Marc toward the private elevator.
The doors closed on Cole's stunned expression.
I was Mrs. Bennett now. Just not his Mrs. Bennett.

# # # THE FUTURE
Shane was waiting for me upstairs. He didn't say a word. He just held out a glass of champagne.
*"To the Bennetts,"* he said, a faint smirk on his lips.
I took the glass. *"To shaking things up."*
From downstairs, I heard Cole's voice — desperate, shouting my name.
I didn't look back.
