A Bride’s Revenge: No Longer The Back Up by Cozy Season

Chapter 1

Author: Cozy Season

Everyone in Gleaston knew how hopelessly in love Ariana Torrey was with Brian Lodge. She loved him to the extent of abandoning all of her pride and principles.

On the day they were supposed to get married, Brian left Ariana behind and drove their bridal car to the airport to pick up Evelyn Granger, the person he truly loved, with just a word from the latter.

The wedding Ariana had hoped for after waiting for at least three years turned into a nightmare that would scar her forever.

Ariana was abducted by Brian’s enemy on the day of their wedding. These men tormented Ariana for three whole days to humiliate Brian.

In the end, Ariana was stripped naked and tied onto a pole on the deck. The abductors live streamed what they did to Ariana live since they thought this was the perfect way to get back at Brian.

Ariana shuddered as the sea breeze swept through her.

She had cried and begged the abductors to let her go. Her pride was constantly trampled over by these men.

Meanwhile, Brian was completely unaffected as he and Evelyn got their marriage certificate that day.

“Brian Lodge, pay us a ransom of five million dollars, and we’ll release your fiancée! Otherwise, we’ll throw her into the ocean to feed the sharks!”

One of the abductors gave Brian the ultimatum while speaking in a scornful tone.

Yet, the response to his demand was a mere scoff. “What does it have to do with me whether a defiled woman like her dies or not?”

Ariana froze when she heard what Brian said.
