Yvonne lifted her head, tears welling up in her eyes. "That wouldn't be fair to you." Nigel let out a bitter laugh. "Fairness doesn't matter to me. I can see you don't feel that way about him. Since that's the case, I like you, and if being your shield is what it takes, so be it." Yvonne choked up, unable to find the right words. And just like that, they agreed to a marriage, a decision that should have been made with more caution.
The next morning, when Yvonne told Nina about it, Nina was shocked. She stared at Yvonne in disbelief for a long tbefore Yvonne gave a bitter smile, and Nina began to understand. Nina took Yvonne's hand and gently urged, "Before this goes public, you should explain things to him. You can't go through with this marriage." Yvonne shook her head. "I've thought about it all night and I've made peace with it. Nina, I don't have much tleft, right? So why not get married once before I leave this world?" Nina didn't know how to respond to that. All she felt was a deep ache in her heart for Yvonne.

If only her health could be restored, she felt like she would have nothing else to wish for. Whenever such thoughts crossed her mind, she immediately cut them off. She was afraid that the universe would take away the blessing of her upcoming wedding.
As night fell, and with the wedding set for tomorrow, Yvonne stumbled out of a bar, slightly tipsy. She noticed a familiar car and walked over to it.
Tapping on the window, Yvonne called out, "Takehome, hurry up." Inside the car, Joe heard her voice and rolled down the window. Seeing Yvonne, his eyes instantly lit up.
He opened the door, and once she was inside, he leaned toward her. "Well, well, a lady throwing herself at me. This isn't good, you know. But hey, I'm in a bad mood tonight, so I'll let you have your way just this once." QUMS Yvonne laughed and gave him her haddress. "Lettell you something. I'm getting married tomorrow. Do you know how amazing it feels to have someone to rely on? That sense of security is indescribable."
