He Ran to Her, I Saved Myself Chapter 10
Shayne gave a bitter smile. "I understand. You don't have to say anything else."He picked up the pen, but his hand trembled uncontrollably.He'd trembled the same way back when we'd gotten married. The man who could confidently lecture in front of tens of thousands of people had been so nervous at our wedding. With hundreds of guests watching, his voice had shaken as he spoke.He'd said, "Naomi, I'm finally marrying you."The love we'd once shared had been real, but so was the resentment I felt now.In the end, when all was said and done, love was a matter of conscience.Finally, Shayne signed his name.He pushed the agreement back toward me and asked hoarsely, "After the divorce, will I still be allowed to see our daughter?"I looked at him and nodded. "Yes, but you can't take her to see anyone who has no business being in her life."He looked relieved, but endless sorrow shrouded his entire being. "Okay. Thank you."After the mandatory 30-day waiting period had passed, we

Shayne's social media accounts were mass-reported and eventually suspended. Even articles that had once praised him were dug up and used as evidence of his hypocrisy.In the end, Shayne had no choice but to accept an interview with the media. He didn't deny his emotional infidelity. He also publicly exposed everything Summer had done.He said, "All my life, I've prided myself on being an honorable and upright man. But in the end, I failed to rise above the temptation to cheat. I thought I was simply being extra considerate toward a student. But the truth was, my heart had wandered between two women. I betrayed my wife, so I no longer deserve to stand in front of a classroom and teach."After the interview, Shayne resigned from the university.As for Summer, she'd gained quite a following by playing the victim online. But the moment the truth came out, her account was immediately banned."Even when I watched her livestreams before, I thought she was putting on an act. Turns out my

Shayne explained, "I genuinely thought she came from a poor family and that her parents were pressuring her into giving up her education. I only felt sorry for her."This was the fourth time Shayne had knelt before me.This time, I felt nothing. There wasn't any heartache or sympathy. All I felt was an overwhelming sense of exhaustion.I gently pulled my hand away. "Shayne, there are plenty of people in this world who have it worse than her. Even if everything Summer told you had been true, she could have applied for financial aid or gotten a part-time job."You're her professor, but what you did for her went far beyond the boundaries of that relationship. Get up. You shouldn't kneel so readily and easily."I turned and walked back into the bedroom, closing the door behind me and shutting out his sobs and desperate pleas.In the days that followed, Shayne seemed to lose his mind. Every day, he waited outside Mom's apartment building from morning until night.I never wasted the b

"Over the phone, the man said, "How could I not know her? My ex-wife left me and took our child with her because of that woman. She told me her family was forcing her into an arranged marriage, so I ended up giving her nearly three million dollars altogether."Eventually, my ex-wife found out. It caused a massive fallout, and my family fell apart. Don't tell me you've been scammed by her too?"Every word hit Shayne like a sledgehammer, crushing his heart.He hung up and called the second and third men. Their answers were practically identical. They all went through the same tricks, the same excuses, and the same devastating endings—broken marriages and shattered families.Looking at the woman he'd once pitied and wanted to protect, Shayne felt his stomach churn.He'd abandoned me, his wife, at the most critical moment for a deceitful, manipulative woman like her. Worse still, he'd pushed me into an even deeper abyss of pain with his own hands."Get out." He spat the words through

The elevator doors closed, much like the relationship between Shayne and me. We'd long since gone our separate ways.When I returned to Mom's place, she was rocking the baby to sleep.The moment she saw me, she hurried over and took my suitcase. "Did you settle everything with him?"I nodded and gently pinched my daughter's little cheek. "Mom, I'm going to have to trouble you with taking care of her from now on."Mom scolded playfully, "Don't be silly. We're family. Of course it's no trouble!"With that, she headed into the kitchen. She returned with a bowl of warm chicken soup and handed it to me."You're the one I'm worried about. You've lost so much weight since giving birth. You need to eat more and build your strength back up."My eyes stung, and I nearly burst into tears. I could only manage a quiet nod.Meanwhile, Shayne and Summer were having a heated argument. Shayne shook off her hand violently. The force sent her stumbling backward into the door.Hearing the commoti

I stared at Shayne frostily, waiting for him to pick up the documents. Summer panicked first and reached out to snatch them."Don't touch them!" Shayne barked at her before picking up the documents himself.As he flipped through the pages, his expression gradually shifted from anger to shock, then finally to utter disbelief. His face went absolutely pale.In a trembling voice, he muttered, "You made all this up, didn't you? Technology is so advanced these days. It's possible to fake photos with some editing software."When he met my knowing, almost mocking gaze, he fell silent.He recalled that he immediately decided I was responsible when Summer claimed someone had sent her messages calling her a homewrecker. At that moment, why hadn't he considered that those messages might have been fake, then?Summer sensed that Shayne still seemed to have some trust in her. The color slowly returned to her otherwise pale face.She said, "Professor Lark, your wife has never liked me. These a
