Haura was happy when she was now legally Alden's wife. His journey was so winding that he had to feel hurt first before he really felt true happiness.
As the saying goes, God will break a person's heart for the sake of the wrong person, before he actually finds the right person. This phrase certainly deserves to be pinned to Haura.
The newlyweds are now preparing to leave for their honeymoon, to the country that Haura dreams of the most for the rest of her life. However, in her last moments Alila came with a terrified expression coming to Haura and Alden's wedding.
When he arrived before Haura. Alila was silent as she was sculpting, looking at Theo's ex-wife intently.
"Congratulations Haura" he said. Then bow your head. "Your invitation reaches my house. But sorry, Theo couldn't attend. Two days ago he came to me. He said, and asked me to come before he promised not to interfere with my life again. And today he kept his promise."
Haura felt strange with Alila saying a strange sentence. "What do you mean?"
"Theo committed suicide by jumping off the Cotton Clay bridge. And to date his body has not been found."
Haura's eyes widened with her disbelief at the news sent by her former rival. Haura covered her mouth with her hands, not feeling her tears flowing. He did not expect that Theo would do this.
"I came here just to say that. I'm grateful he died. Because no one's gonna bother me anymore." Alila turned around and left the wedding venue of Haura and Alden.
Knowing his wife was in shock. Alden swiftly hugged his wife, so that she would not fall.
"Alden's... We have to get to Catton Clay. We have to make sure Theo's found."
Haura obeyed what her husband said. She's not sad because she still loves Theo. But he already considered the man a friend. Haura has made peace with her past, and has forgotten all the grudges that lie in her heart, making her marriage to Theo one of her most rewarding journeys and lessons.

The couple set off on the famous Catton clay bridge which has a strong current. Josep also joined the two to accompany them.
When they reached the scene of the crime, the place where Theo jumped in the morning with the police line. Alden and Josep were still talking to the police, asking about Theo's progress, and the chances of life were slim.
From far away Haura saw her wedding photo in a small frame lying on the edge of the bridge. So before Theo ends his life. He took the photo everywhere. Even though he no longer has Haura's body. However, he still has a photo of his memories with his ex-wife.
"Honey.... " Alden patted his wife's shoulder and clutched her gently, only to keep her calm and steadfast. "Police said all sides were trying to find Theo. The chances of his life are very small, almost nonexistent. Because the current of this river is very swift, and not far from here there is a vast ocean." Alden's explanation left Haura's heart broken.
"Darling... Sorry if I ruined our wedding. But you know how I got along with Theo. It's sad not that I still love her, but rather that I pity her with the tragic end of her life story."
"I know, and I understand this, Haura." Alden kissed his wife's forehead gently. "We're canceling our honeymoon in honor of Theo, okay? "
Haura never knew Alden was a big-hearted and very understanding man. He's very lucky to have Alden in his life.
