As their wedding day drew near, Jake and Lily were filled with excitement and nervous anticipation. They looked forward to celebrating their love with family and friends and beginning their life together. Unbeknownst to them, however, Megan, Lily’s best friend and bridesmaid, was harboring dark intentions. Overwhelmed by jealousy, Megan was unable to accept that Lily and Jake were so happy; in fact, she had secret feelings for Jake. Consumed by envy, she devised a scheme to sow discord in their relationship.
Just a week before the wedding, Megan sent Jake a photo of Lily in her wedding dress, accompanied by a chilling message implying that something terrible would happen if they went through with the marriage. The image rattled Jake and filled him with doubt.
Haunted by Megan’s ominous warning, Jake faced an agonizing decision and ultimately chose to call off the wedding, fearing the consequences of defying the superstition. Lily was left heartbroken and confused, unable to understand Jake’s sudden change of heart. In the months that followed, their friendship with Megan deteriorated. Influenced by Megan’s negativity, Jake and Lily found themselves starting anew, their once close-knit group now strained and distant.
To heal from the shock of the cancellation, they put their wedding plans on hold indefinitely. A year later, however, Jake and Lily discovered that their bond had only strengthened. With newfound clarity, they decided to try again, opting for a smaller, more intimate ceremony without the pressure of toxic friendships or superstitions. They sought to surround themselves with those who truly valued their happiness, ultimately choosing to part ways with Megan for good.

In 2007, he spoke about his darker days, but also emphasized the work he had done to break free.
“I learned how to believe in myself. Learned how to set goals, you know, self help books man. I just read every single one I can get a hold of and I still do. I read that stuff all the time still,” he said. “I am always coming out bigger, better, stronger and happier.”
During his recent interview, Carey shared with Wallace the valuable lessons he learned which help him in the battle against depression.
“Like, don’t take things personally. I took everything personally, if somebody wrote a bad review, I’d be like, what the hell? Coming after my money? You know, so yeah, that’s — all that’s gone.”
