Days before my wedding, I discovered my dream dress ruined by scorch marks. My heart sank as I found the garment bag unzipped and my dress, once perfect, now marred beyond repair.

I called my mom, sobbing, and Adam, my fiancé, tried to console me over the phone, suggesting it might be an electrical issue. But as I examined the damage, a disturbing thought took root.

My mom arrived, and we checked the security footage from the cameras Adam had installed. To my horror, I saw Adam entering the guest room with an iron, deliberately scorching the dress. When he finally came home, I confronted him with the evidence.

Adam, tearful and regretful, admitted he had been influenced by Jason, his best friend. Jason had fed him lies about my supposed doubts and advised him to ruin the dress to test my commitment.

Furious, I ended the engagement on the spot. The dress wasn’t just fabric—it symbolized our trust, now shattered.

I turned my anger toward Jason, uncovering his infidelity with his girlfriend, Sophie. I anonymously sent her the proof, leading to a dramatic public breakup.

A few weeks later, I ran into Adam at a coffee shop. He apologized, and though I accepted, I realized the betrayal was irreversible.

As I walked away, I felt a weight lift. The past was behind me, and for the first time in weeks, I smiled at the future ahead.
