I Was Just the Backup Bride

On the day my grandmother Nana was in critical condition, Scott accompanied me back to my small hometown. For a second, I thought he had finally decided to put me first.

But at the hospital's billing counter, he left his phone in my hand when he went to use the restroom.

The screen lit up. It was a group chat notification from his friends.

"Scott, are you seriously at the hospital with Elly right now?"

"Aren't you afraid she’ll find out you only agreed to marry her because Aurora refused to see you?"
