"Ms. Hudson, Mr. Wagner has indeed been acting pretty crazy these days," Ivan explained. Suddenly, it all clicked for me. The shopping sprees for the wedding ring and dress must have been his doing.

"What's he trying to do, gross me out?" I demanded angrily.

Ivan fell silent for a while before replying, "Ms. Hudson, I honestly don't know what Mr. Wagner is up to, but I feel he can't bear to lose you. He loves you."

Ivan didn't respond.

"Ivan, let him be crazy on his own. I won't join him in his madness," I made my stand.

"Ms. Hudson, I've always felt guilty. If it hadn't been for me that time, you and Mr. Wagner might not have ended up like this," Ivan still blamed himself for the mistake he'd made then.
