Getting Back at Him

I often doubted whether Jason really loved me over the eight years we were together.Still, he always acted like the perfect boyfriend in front of everyone.His eyes would light up when he spoke to me, and his every gesture showed love.Even trivial things, like remembering to bring an umbrella on a rainy day.One phone call was all it took for him to stop whatever he was doing and come pick me up.Even after eight years and eight proposals, he turned me down each time.Everyone still believed we would eventually get married.Now, seeing him share a photo of his marriage certificate with Tessa’s name instead of mine, I was certain everyone would be shocked.Tessa is my sister. She was my real sister.She always took my things since we were kids. No matter how much I cried, I never got them back.Our parents never liked me. They disliked me and never protected me.They said that my mother nearly died from a severe hemorrhage when I was born.Hence, I was called a jinx.I kn

I had to admit that every buried feeling inside me was stirred up by Tessa at that moment.Even though I no longer cared about the bracelet, she started talking about our childhood.She bullied me since we were little, stole my things, and now she even took my man!Suddenly, my emotions erupted like a volcano.I reached out my hand without even touching her when Tessa suddenly screamed and collapsed to the ground, clutching her stomach, and crying out in pain.Jason rushed over in an instant, knocking me down, then gently helped Tessa up.“Sheena, are you crazy? You knew Tessa’s pregnant, and you still have the guts to push her!”I fell hard onto the ground. My palms were scraped raw and bleeding.However, the pain was nothing compared to Jason’s harsh words.“You are downright crazy, hurting your own sister like that. How could someone like you possibly deserve to be my girlfriend?”“Jason, please don’t say that. It’s all my fault. Sheena got mad. That’s why she pushed me. A

After leaving the conference room, I arranged to meet Zayden at a café near the office.As soon as he saw my message, he was already sitting there, waiting impatiently.His eyes were locked onto me, and after staring for what felt like forever, the first thing he said was,"So, have you made up your mind? Let’s run away together."I could not help it and rolled my eyes.“Don’t be ridiculous. I am here to talk about business. About the company shares.”I pulled out the share transfer agreement I had just signed with Jason and showed it to him.“With this extra five percent, I now hold fifteen percent in total. What do you think, Mr. Scott? Can you handle that much?”I had my reasons for reaching out to Zayden.I knew he had his eyes on this company. He would not have invested during its lowest point if he did not.Moreover, now that the company’s on an upward trajectory, it was an excellent opportunity. There was no reason for him to say no.However, to my surprise, his eyes

After leaving the little house, I did not go to the apartment my father arranged for me. Instead, I called Zayden and asked him to find me a place to stay.In the days that followed, I focused on sorting out all the company affairs I had on hand, then signed the share transfer contract with Zayden. After signing, I grabbed my bag and was about to leave the office when Jason suddenly stopped me.He looked at me with a complicated expression and surprisingly asked how I had been lately. I glanced at my watch. The plane was about to take off.So, I replied casually telling him I was fine without even looking up and tried to leave.However, Jason would not let me go easily. He frowned.“Sheena, you’ve changed.”“Have I? I don’t feel that way. "I have some matters to attend to, so I am leaving."A flicker of nervousness flashed across his face when he heard I was leaving. He grabbed my wrist tightly and said firmly, “You have changed. You wouldn’t have treated me like this be
