Chapter 2

Time was running out, so I agreed to let Quinn be the bridesmaid.

Just after I finished my bridal makeup, my phone rang again.

My eyelid twitched.

Friend A: "Ella, did you know Theo instructed the wedding car to pick up Quinn first, then come for you?"

"And during their video call just now, Theo couldn't take his eyes off Quinn all dressed up."

"What?"

Those words changed my expression.

Anger surged, my temples throbbed.

I immediately called Theo.

"Did you tell the car to pick up Quinn first, then me?"

Theo paused before replying, "Isn't she being your bridesmaid? Of course, she needs to be picked up first."

Is that a reason?

I questioned him, "There are a dozen cars. Any of your friends could have gone. Why you?"

He seemed at a loss for words.

After a few seconds, he reluctantly explained:

"Baby, don't be mad! I'll be honest. This was Quinn's condition for being a bridesmaid. I had no choice."

At that moment, it felt like something in my head snapped.

I couldn't help but recall how she always fought for the front seat.

The first time was on my birthday when Theo came to pick me up.

As I reached the car, I saw Quinn in the front seat.

Smiling brightly, she waved at me:

"Hey, sis! Mind if I hitch a ride? I get carsick in the back. I'll give the seat back when we get there."

Acting all carefree and playful.

Theo opened the back door, seeing me standing still, he quickly added:

"We just ran into each other. I was just giving her a ride. She really does get carsick; otherwise, I wouldn't let her sit in front!"

I was about to speak when Quinn clicked her tongue, playfully pouting:

"Theo, you're really all about your girlfriend now. What, want to kick me out of the car?"

"If you dare, I'll kick you out of the brotherhood group, hmph!"

Once Theo was in and buckling up, she suddenly reached to tug his ear.

Just touched it and then pulled back, sticking her tongue out: "Oops, Theo's taken now. I better watch my boundaries."

Ugh! Such a fake act!

I confronted Theo over this.

He was frustrated: "I told you, there's nothing between Quinn and me. Why can't you believe it?"

Once or twice, I could ignore it.

But with her appearing every now and then, Theo finally realized it was inappropriate.

After refusing her a ride two or three times, things improved.

I didn't expect her to pull this stunt on our wedding day!

I frowned, "Theo, turn around now. Have someone else pick her up!"

He sighed.

"I'm already at her place! Ella, Quinn is my buddy. She's being your bridesmaid today. Can you please just let this go?"

Sending the main wedding car for the bridesmaid before the bride?

This was clearly his mishandling, yet he blamed me for being petty?

Ridiculous.
