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?'
Me:？

The Billionaire Stands Up for Me

"So, Lily, this is the most genuine reaction to liking someone. This is also why I'm willing to wait for you and run towards you—don't say you don't like me, how could I not see that you like me, like crazy."


These words echoed in my mind all night long.


I don't even remember how Daniel Carter sent me back, nor do I remember what we said when we parted.


Because all my senses were immersed in the shock and shyness brought by these words, my brain completely lost functionality.


After revealing our feelings, Daniel Carter expressed his emotions more directly.


Whenever he's free, he sends me messages or calls me.


He cares about whether I've eaten and whether Grandma's health is improving.


Occasionally, he talks about his work, mentioning a successful collaboration or a breakthrough in research.


After my car was repaired, when I went to the service center to collect my car, I voluntarily gave him a call.
