How Cruel Love is Chapter 1

My actor boyfriend and my stunt double had real sex in a large-scale action scene.

He thought he had concealed it perfectly.

Little did he know that I had already known everything and planned to leave.

And on the day of his proposal, I also had to get married to his half-brother, who was his archenemy.

"Yvette, will you marry me?"

The sentence "I do" that Arnold expected did not come as expected.

The diamond ring he held in his hand would never have the chance to be worn on my ring finger.

"I don't want to."

"Because the person I'm going to marry is Armand!"

***

"Propose to me at the press conference next month."

Hearing these words, the man stopped tidying up his sleeves and a hint of surprise flashed across his face.

He took a few steps and brought himself closer.

"Are you crazy? Do you know what your relationship with me is?"

I said as I calmly fixed my hair, "Of course, you are his brother, Armand."

"So, do you agree or not?"

Seeing my calm reaction, a faint light flickered in the bottom of his eyes and he responded, "What's in it for me?"

"I know you and Arnold are competing for family property. If you marry me, you can not only slap him in the face, but also increase your popularity and expand your market share in the film and television industry. It's a win-win solution. How about it?"

Hearing these benefits, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes.

"Deal."

After reaching an agreement, he elegantly opened the door and made a gesture of invitation.

"It's our turn to take the stage."

"My partner."

On the way from the backstage to the front stage of the show, the man beside me said with a hint of mockery in his voice, "It's quite exciting for me to snatch the girl on the tip of Arnold's heart right in front of him."

I did not respond.

Listening to a voice that was incredibly similar to Arnold's, my thoughts were brought back to the past.

The first time I met Arnold was at a press conference.

With just one glance, the man was moved.

Then came the intense pursuit that lasted for two years.

He went against all public opinion and invested huge sums of money in the movie I wanted to make.

I was filming a travel variety show when the directing team threw me onto a foreign road. He came in a private jet to support me.

After two years of companionship, we naturally came together.

Our love and loyalty to each other were what I had always firmly believed in.

Until a sudden invitation to the Cannes Film Festival.

When I finished my work and returned to my home country, I found that everything had changed.

Laurent Smith served as my stunt double and filmed a large-scale action scene with the male lead, Arnold Finch.

Unexpectedly, during the filming, the two of them became so lustful that they actually turned their fake play into reality.

Three months later, the news of Laurent's pregnancy was discovered by the Finch Family.

Randolf Finch said that he wanted to have grandchildren next year.

And when I first debuted, I lost the qualification to be a mother forever due to a filming accident.

At that time, Arnold was in a critical period of competing for family property.

He did not dare to go against the elders of the Finch Family, so he had to compromise, but he asked to leave the mother and keep the son.

The Finch Family agreed.

During the year when Laurent was pregnant, Arnold treated me twice better.

First, I spent fourteen million dollars to invest in a female growth-themed movie that I had been looking forward to for a long time and was currently being filmed.

Later, he made a big move at the auction.

Light the sky lamp and buy the Star Diamond which was worth twenty-eight million dollars for me.

He thought he had done it flawlessly and that these efforts could deepen my love for him.

He even planned to propose to me at the wrap-up press conference of the movie.
