Walking Alone in a Dream

[Strong Female Lead + Everyone Ends Badly + Second Male Lead Takes Over + Clean Romance + Childhood Sweethearts]
My fiancé's first love was diagnosed with a terminal illness, and she had a request:
She wanted me to give her my planned wedding, and even asked me to officiate their wedding.
I watched her wear the wedding dress I had sewn by hand, adorn herself with the jewelry I had meticulously chosen, and walk arm-in-arm with my fiancé into what should have been my marriage hall — considering she was a dying woman, I endured all of this.

But she went too far and tried to take the white jade bracelet left to me by my deceased mother, which was too much!
At the auction, my sleazy fiancé protected her as they continuously raised bids, inflating the price of the bracelet to 200 million.
Drained of my assets by my vampire-like family, I was powerless and could only watch in agony as the family heirloom fell into the hands of those despicable people —
Suddenly, a cool and elegant voice arose: '300 million.'
The whole room was shocked.
The low-profile and mysterious heir of the Carter Family, Daniel Carter made an astonishing bid, 'The auction item is a gift to Eldest Miss Miller.'

I retrieved the bracelet and thanked Daniel Carter, 'Mr. Carter, I will repay the 300 million to you as soon as possible.'
Daniel Carter frowned and gently asked, 'Lily Miller, don’t you remember me?'

The Billionaire Stands Up for Me

"Alright, that's fine." Just as I was about to hang up after saying this, I suddenly thought of something. "Would you like to have lunch together tomorrow?"


My heart soared with joy, but I forced myself to stay calm. "See you tomorrow then."


After hanging up, I blissfully chuckled to myself for quite a while.


Soon my phone rang, and when I picked it up to check, it was a bank card information message from Daniel Carter.


I replied with an "Okay" and immediately logged into my bank system to repay him.


This exhilaration lasted until almost the end of the workday.


I was hurrying to finish up work on the pleated apron skirt, planning to continue working late, when my phone suddenly rang. I stood up, relieved to take the call.


When I saw who it was, it was Adrian Gordon.


He hadn't been in touch for several days, and now he was calling, likely about the divorce.


Adrian's tone was heavy, "Lily, are you off work yet?"
