Ivy never expected to be left out of her best friend Amber’s wedding—until she found out why. The shock came slowly: no invitation, no mention of plans, not even during a shared nail appointment. Amber, who Ivy once considered family, shut her out completely.
Friends posted excitedly about Amber’s big day. Ivy kept waiting, but nothing came. Suspicion turned to heartbreak, then confusion. Finally, on the wedding day, she decided to crash it.
The venue was stunning. Guests smiled and laughed, completely unaware of the emotional storm Ivy carried as she stepped into the main hall. Then, silence fell. All eyes turned to her.
Amber stood at the front, radiant—and stunned. But it was the groom that made Ivy’s world tilt: her estranged father, Philip. The man who had vanished from her life when she was ten.
Amber had known. That’s why Ivy was never invited.
“Ivy…” Philip began, but it was too late. Ivy confronted them both in front of everyone, demanding answers neither could give.
“You let me think you were dead,” she told her father.
“You’re marrying my dad?” she asked Amber, betrayed and heartbroken.
