Die, All You Self-Righteous Men

"The night before Valentine's Day, I was sorting out the paperwork for our marriage registration the next morning.

My phone buzzed on the corner of the desk. It was the group chat with Ethan's old crew.

One of his buddies suddenly tagged me.

""Nora, go check the city hall booking system.""

I opened it and found that tomorrow's marriage registration appointment had been cancelled.

The cancellation had gone through two hours ago.

I called to demand an answer. From the other end came a familiar female voice first, laughing coquettishly.

Ethan's ex-girlfriend, Chloe.
