My father was the one who handed Finn a golden opportunity—an insanely lucrative profit-sharing deal that should have set him up for life.
"What have I done..." Finn's voice broke, thick with guilt.
Archie smirked, cold amusement glinting in his eyes. "President Brooks, now that you finally understand, it's too late. Faith is my wife now. You should focus on cleaning up your own mess with Darcie."
"From now on, stay the hell away from us."
Archie pulled me close, guiding me to the car with effortless control. His fingers brushed my shoulder as he buckled my seatbelt, the gesture unexpectedly tender.
As the car circled the fountain, I glanced back through the window. Finn stood there, clutching the abandoned wedding dress, his eyes hollow—like a man trapped in a waking nightmare.
That night, Archie surprised me with a custom wedding dress, its centerpiece a dazzling ruby that caught the light like fire.
"I remember how obsessed you were with magical girl anime as a kid." His lips curved. "This is a thousand times more precious—and more beautiful—than anything Finn could ever design."
Of course he had to turn it into a competition.
A soft laugh escaped me before I could stop it.
Wait—I must have mentioned that anime thing when I was, what, ten?
Suddenly curious, I lifted his chin with my fingers. "Tell me... how long have you liked me?"
Archie pulled me against him, his voice warm with quiet triumph. "Maybe in a past life. Faith, my entire existence was meant to love you."
Three months later, we married.
Miami's elite filled the venue, and the ceremony was live-streamed to the world. My old fans flooded the chat like a tidal wave.
"No way—Faith is the jewelry king's daughter?! She was always out of Finn's league!"
"Finn's in prison now! He abused Darcie, then lost it when her secret lover confronted him. Stabbed the guy. Got life with a suspended death sentence."
"Thank God Faith dodged that bullet. What a monster."
"Rumor is Finn only married Darcie to avoid execution. Too bad the lover showed up and ruined his pathetic plan."
"Who cares? Today's about Faith! Give us the romance, brother-in-law!"
The livestream hit a million viewers in minutes.
Caught up in the "brother-in-law" chants, Archie casually tossed out red envelopes totaling a jaw-dropping $100 million. Later, he held me close, his voice rough with emotion. "You're the greatest gift heaven ever gave me. I'm just glad I didn't lose my chance."
I tilted my head up. "Was it you who told Darcie to go back to Finn?"
His grip tightened—just enough to betray the truth.
"I'm not angry," I said softly. "Actually, thank you. You showed me who he really was." I paused. "But there's one condition."
Relief flashed across his face. "Name it. Whatever you want—listening to my wife only brings good luck."
I laughed. "First, no more lies. I hate being played."
He nodded instantly.
"And second..." I guided his hand to my stomach. "You're going to be a dad."
For a heartbeat, he froze. Then he swept me into his arms, spinning me once before crushing me against his chest.
"Thank you, wife." His voice was raw. "And thank you for never giving up on me."
"What have I done..." Finn's voice broke, thick with guilt.
Archie smirked, cold amusement glinting in his eyes. "President Brooks, now that you finally understand, it's too late. Faith is my wife now. You should focus on cleaning up your own mess with Darcie."
