That Day When I Got Married to My Boss at the Blind Date

On Heather’s twenty-fourth birthday, amidst the dream celebration everyone had crafted for her, Josie ruthlessly ruined it by humiliating her and making her the subject of gossip for a lifetime.

News of the event could no longer be contained, and it was bound to spread throughout the city soon.
