He Left Before the Wedding. I Never Looked Back.

After five years together, on the day of my wedding dress fitting, my fiancé, Liam, abandoned me alone at the bridal shop.

He had to rush my sister Ashley's pet cat, which had a mild case of diarrhea, to the emergency vet.

Over the phone, his voice was filled with impatience.

"Chloe, can you stop being so dramatic? Is a cat's life not more important than you trying on some dress?"

"Fine, then the wedding is off."

I calmly took off the custom-made wedding dress, worth three hundred thousand dollars.
