Chapter 559
Civil Affairs Bureau.
Thea and Thorne arrived at the civil affairs bureau, and they were warmly recommended by the staff about the process of getting married. First, they took a number, had their wedding photos taken, and then waited in line.
Robert and William were both very busy. William seemed to perform magic, carrying a huge pocket full of candies and giving them out to people he met, starting from entering the civil affairs bureau.
“My daughter and son–in–law got their marriage certificate today. I will give you all some wedding candies to share the joy,” he said to everyone he met.
Robert reached into William’s pocket and pulled out one candy after another, happily handing them out. “Today is also a good day for my son to get married. I’m giving out candies to all of you too.”
Two big fools, just like that.
Thea covered her eyes and didn’t want to look at the two old people at all.
It was so embarrassing.
Who among the people queuing at the Civil Affairs Bureau didn’t get married and obtain their marriage certificate today? Why does she have to make it special?

Thorne couldn’t help but chuckle when he saw Thea burying her head low. He took her hand and said with a smile, “If they enjoy it, let them be. Haven’t you noticed how they’ve livened up the atmosphere at the civil affairs bureau?”
Thea awkwardly nodded.
The waiting process was slightly long. Thea took a moment to post on her social media, she uploaded her wedding photos to her circle of friends, and then wrote, “You were there in the first half of my life, and you will be there in the second half too. My life has become complete because of you!”
After posting on her Moments, she picked up her phone.
Little did they know, this WeChat moment would cause a huge uproar.
Soon, someone recognized Thea as the female CEO of the Fletcher Group. And the person in the wheelchair was the legendary genius hacker who had brought down four major top–tier families in just three months. With their status in the underworld, photos of their wedding were spontaneously reposted by countless people. In the end, the image of their wedding spread almost everywhere there was a mobile phone.
When Nathan saw this wedding photo, he was struck like lightning.
He stared at the photo in disbelief, his first reaction being that it was photoshopped. However, when he enlarged the imag countless times, he couldn’t find any traces of
photoshopping. He slumped down in despair on the chair.
His gaze fell resistively on Thea, the woman in the photo,

wearing a dress in the same color scheme as Thorne’s, deliberately adorned with exquisite makeup, making her unbelievably beautiful. For the first time, he realized that his ex–wife was so delicate and beautiful; all he used to see was Victoria. He had never noticed Thea’s beauty before.
At this moment, his heart felt as if he had lost something valuable, filled with an indescribable sense of loss.
He remembered again the scene of his marriage to Isabella, because at that time Victoria’s life was hanging by a thread, and all his thoughts were focused on saving Victoria’s life, so he was very neglectful of his wedding with Isabella.
Their wedding was very simple, with only a few family members in attendance. Even the engagement ring was custom–made by his assistant at a jewelry store. The wedding dress was bought off the rack, and Isabella felt that it didn’t fit her quite right.
In memory, the weddings of the two lifetimes were identical.
The stark contrast between Thea’s demeanor today and the sense of ceremony surrounding Thorne’s wedding is a bitter irony. Every piece of clothing and jewelry they wore, as well as the radiant smiles on their faces, and Thorne’s indulgent gaze reserved only for her, all serve as a stark reminder of the past.
He drooped his head in dejection.
He admitted that he lost.
Lost to Thorne.
Lost with a gracious acceptance.

But he was unwilling, clearly this happiness should have been his, why didn’t he cherish it properly?
Nathan rushed to the hotel and got extremely drunk.
Unlike before, he, who was feeling depressed, started going crazy with alcohol.
“Wife, I loved you.”
“Wife, I was wrong. Will you come back, please?”
“Wife, I will only treat you well from now on. The money I earn will be spent only on you. Please, I beg you, don’t go with anyone else? I beg you.”
He finally clung to the waiter’s leg, passionately shouting and screaming.
The waiter called the boss, and the boss sighed.
He cried like a baby, with snot and tears streaming down his face. The boss felt pity and said,
“I sympathize with your situation. Let me help you by calling your wife and asking her to come and pick you up. Apologize and explain everything to her properly, and she will forgive you.”
Nathan tremblingly handed his phone to his boss, saying, “You call her, you ask her to come pick me up. Just tell her that I’m feeling very unwell…”
The boss took the phone and flipped through the contacts.

After the phone call was connected, the boss earnestly advised her, “In a marriage, there will always be arguments, but at the end of the day, you should forgive your husband since he already knows he was wrong.”
“Although I don’t know what mistake he made, seeing him getting drunk and crying like a dog here, constantly repenting, I think he has learned a profound lesson. They say a prodigal son returns and is worth more than gold. Please come and pick him up. He’s feeling a bit unwell, so please come as soon as possible.”
On the other side, Victoria, who was undergoing dialysis, was
in tears.
Did Nathan finally realize her goodness?
She shed tears of happiness.
After Victoria finished dialysis, she regained some strength in her body. She then hailed a taxi and went to the bar.
She saw Nathan lying on the ground in a disheveled state, with stubble on his face and deep–set eye sockets. His once dignified face had turned waxen and his clothes bore many creases, making him look very untidy.
She could no longer associate him with the handsome young man he used to be. At that moment, she only felt embarrassed.
“Nathan, we came home,” she approached and squatted in front of him, attempting to pull him up.

But when Nathan opened his eyes, he saw her, as if he saw a venomous snake.
“Who made you come?”
Victoria was speechless.
The boss was dumbfounded, “Wasn’t it you who asked me to call her? Don’t play dumb. Just a moment ago, you were crying and begging for your wife. Now that your wife is here, you’re pretending not to recognize her?”
Nathan threw a tantrum and said, “She was not my wife.”
Victoria said with red eyes, “Nathan, what nonsense are you talking about? We were married.”
Nathan shouted at her, “You were not, at best you could only
be a mistress.”
He was extremely angry with her, “If it weren’t for you, how could I have possibly lost my excellent first wife?”
He began to slap himself in the face, “It was my fault, it was my blindness, it was my lack of commitment, it was me who lost you.”
Victoria grabbed his hand, her eyes red with anger, and roared, “Nathan, the drama of chasing after Thea is really not suitable for you. You should know that delayed affection is cheaper than grass. If Thea knew that you still love her, d you think she would be moved by you? No, she would only find you disgusting.”
“Nathan, where did you go so early?”
“If you had realized your own feelings earlier and not given

me hope, I wouldn’t have been so entangled with you for so long. All in all, it’s because you were not committed in your emotions, which harmed Thea, harmed me, and also harmed yourself.”
“Now, what qualifications do you have to criticize me?”
Nathan was completely foolish.
Originally, delayed affection is cheaper than grass.
Wasn’t it true that by persistently bothering Isabella, he would only make her feel disgusted?
