The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

That evening, Yuri texted back: [Thanks for the good wishes, your mom and I are over the moon].

Yuri had stayed in Imperial City for nearly a month before returning with the urn. He had hired the best funeral service team around, who handled Julie's affairs with impeccable grace and efficiency. At the burial, Brittany turned her head away, unable to bear the sight.

Yuri stood a short distance away, shrouded in a mist of sorrow, as if he had stepped through the veils of time to see Julie once again. He closed his eyes, and it felt as though the air still carried the scent of jasmine from her skin.

Just like when they first met.

Yuri kept his marriage a secret.

After all, registering a marriage with someone who had passed didn't exactly make for great dinner table conversation, and he didn't want to draw too much attention.

When Knox Lynette learned of it, he was livid. "Marrying someone who's gone, what on earth are you thinking?"

"Dad, if you hadn't been so adamant about stopping me, Juliana, no, her real name is Julie. Julie and I would have been together a long time ago."

Yuri seemed calm, but his words were laced with resentment. "Now, all I want is to marry Julie. If you won't accept it, you might as well disown me!"

Knox's breath hitched. After a long pause, he finally said, "All these years, you've blamed me."
