Another Chance for the Luna Queen by Aurora Starling

In the original timeline, this news had gotten out too, but it wasn’t until after the wedding. The fact that it got out early this time meant that David must have been the one who leaked it.

Was this his attempt to get back at me for embarrassing him at the restaurant? That made the most sense. He was trying to manipulate me by embarrassing me publicly.
