Wade inquired, his voice steady yet laced with frustration. Janice let out a derisive laugh. "What exactly do you want from me, Wade? Isn't it a favor I'm doing by setting you free? You could spend the rest of your life with your sister instead.

I'm sure you won't let what others think come between you two." Her tone dripped with a biting sarcasm that hung in the air, thick and palpable. Wade's jaw tightened, his gaze fixed intently on her. "When will you finally grow up? Even Allie has chosen to overlook what you did to her. When will you confront your mistakes?" Janice blinked, taken aback by his accusation. "My mistakes? What on earth did I ever do to her?" The genuine confusion in her voice was striking. She truly seemed oblivious to the implications of her actions.

For Wade, however, it was painfully clear that she had yet to grasp the weight of her choices. His disappointment deepened, settling heavily in his chest. Still, Wade clung to the promise he had made to Alicia. Despite the fact that Janice had been the catalyst for Alicia's near-fatal accident in the mountains, Wade found it nearly impossible to sever the emotional ties that had bound him to Janice for so long. Their history was woven too tightly together.

"Since you're not in the mood to pick out the rings today, we can postpone it for another time," he said, his voice devoid of further explanation. He knew that delving into the incident now would only ignite more conflict. Alicia had chosen the path of forgiveness, but Wade had taken it upon himself to investigate Janice's phone records in secret. He discovered that Alicia had indeed reached out to Janice on that fateful day. The realization that Janice could be capable of such cruelty was a bitter pill for Wade to swallow.

Years of dedicated training had led Alicia to the brink of her dreams, only to be shattered by a leg injury that left her teetering on the edge of despair. Her world of dance, once vibrant and full of promise, had crumbled. It wasn't until much later that Alicia was able to rekindle a new passion, something that could ease the pain of her loss. Wade felt an overwhelming sense of responsibility to make amends to Alicia alongside Janice. As her future husband, he recognized the necessity of sharing the burden of their collective mistakes. He inhaled deeply, gathering his thoughts.

Suddenly, his mind drifted back to Chad, whom he had encountered earlier. An unsettling feeling stirred within him, compelling Wade to act in a way that felt distinctly out of character. "I assure you, the wedding will proceed as planned. Let's concentrate on building a joyful life together. I promised I wouldn't betray your trust. I hope you can find some faith in me," he declared, his tone earnest yet weary. With that, Wade turned on his heel and left, unwilling to engage in further argument. Janice's chest swelled with rage, each word he spoke only fueling her determination.

She understood that Wade didn't speak without purpose, but she had no time to ponder the implications. Her priority was crystal clear: sabotage the wedding. After a moment's contemplation, she exited her office, ready to set her plan into motion. In response to her resistance, both families had decided to move the wedding date up by a week.

In the meantime, she successfully identified a suitable accomplice to help her execute her scheme and deceive everyone around them.

Their plan relied heavily on creating a grand spectacle during the wedding; without it, the truth about Janice and her fake partner not being genuinely married would come to light. Such a failure would undoubtedly force both families to insist that she marry Wade as originally intended. The wedding of Wade and Janice was set to take place on Saturday. As Ariel entered the venue, she spotted Janice surrounded by bodyguards while seated for her makeup. A frown creased her brow at the sight of the men stationed around her.

"My dad is worried I might try to escape," Janice explained, her voice devoid of pretense. "He assigned all these guards to keep a tight watch on me since a few days ago." She found the situation oddly humorous, a twisted sense of amusement bubbling beneath her surface. Nicholas, ever the protective father, was determined to ensure that Janice married Wade that day, whether she wanted to or not. "What's your take on all this?" Ariel asked, noticing the fatigue etched across Janice's face. A wave of sympathy washed over her.

Janice inhaled deeply, the weight of her situation pressing down on her. "Everyone is forcing me into this marriage. I have no choice but to take drastic measures and completely ruin everything." Ariel could sense Janice had a plan brewing, but she worried for the audience; this wedding was a grand affair attended by many prominent and influential figures. Days had passed without a word from Janice, a clear indication that Nicholas had already placed guards around her. "You're saying..." Ariel grasped Janice's hand, concern evident in her eyes.

Janice's smile was bright, yet it failed to reach her eyes. "Wade has hurt me time and again. It's not too much to make him lose face just this once, right?" As the wedding day loomed closer, the emotional turmoil surrounding Wade and Janice reached a fever pitch. Wade, burdened by the weight of his promises to Alicia and the haunting shadows of Janice's past actions, felt the cracks in their relationship deepen.

His commitment to Alicia fueled a growing resolve to confront the painful truths that lay between them, yet the lingering connection to Janice made it increasingly difficult to envision a future free from her influence. In his heart, he knew that the only way to honor Alicia was to break free from the toxic cycle that Janice perpetuated, but the thought of severing ties with someone who had been such a significant part of his life felt like an insurmountable challenge.

On the other hand, Janice's determination to sabotage the wedding stemmed from a place of insecurity and resentment, revealing the fractured psyche behind her bravado. She clung to the belief that by causing chaos, she could reclaim a sense of control over her life, even if it meant dragging others down with her. As the day approached, her facade of humor and nonchalance began to crack, exposing the vulnerability that lay beneath. Ultimately, both characters stood at a crossroads, their choices poised to shape not only their destinies but also the lives of those around them.

As Janice prepares to make a dramatic statement, Wade remains blissfully unaware, caught up in a whirlwind of wedding preparations and his commitment to Alicia. The juxtaposition of their emotions is bound to create a charged atmosphere, leaving readers on the edge of their seats, wondering if love or revenge will prevail. Moreover, as the day of the wedding approaches, secrets will unravel, and alliances will be tested. Will Wade's loyalty to Alicia withstand the pressure of Janice's machinations? And what role will the families play in this unfolding drama?
