In order to gather 500 thousand dollars for my blind girlfriend's surgical bills, I've accepted a delivery order that's meant for someone at a private racing club. The huge floor-to-ceiling monitor is currently playing the live footage of the champion who's won the racing tournament. Champagne bottles can be seen spraying everywhere as the audience cheers loudly for the victor. Soon, the champion takes off her helmet and shakes her head full of curls off her face. Strikingly beautiful features are revealed the next moment. Next to the champion stands her childhood friend, Lewis Ross. I feel my hands clenching around the plastic bag containing the food containers. The woman shown on the screen is none other than Evelyn Carter, my so-called blind girlfriend. "Why aren't you happy even though you've won the tournament, Evelyn? Are you missing that boyfriend of yours who's still working his ass off for money?" A familiar voice comes from the lounge. An amused yet malicious smirk is played on Evelyn's lips at the moment. "Why did you bring him up? Then again, it's thrilling, pretending to be blind and all. Whenever he changes his clothes at home, he does it right in front of me." Everyone around Evelyn begins roaring with cheers. "You're so lucky, Ms. Carter!" After taking a sip from her champagne glass, Evelyn responds in a flippant tone, "Lucky? He's so busy with work every day just to gather enough money for my surgical bills! That man doesn't have a single romantic cell in him—he's just as stiff as the stick up his ass!" A wave of laughter echoes from the crowd once again. Feeling as though my blood had turned to ice, I turn on my heel and begin walking out of the club. I can still hear Lewis' cheeky voice ringing out from behind me. "There are only three days left in our one-year bet, Evelyn. Don't tell me you really fell for your boyfriend!" Evelyn merely snorts in response. She drawls back, "Don't worry. I'll dump him in three days."

Evelyn didn't give up. She covered the area outside Matthew's dorm with roses, waited for him at the cafeteria entrance, and stood outside the library for hours.It drove Matthew crazy, but there was nothing he could do about it.Then all of a sudden, rumors about him started spreading around campus.Some said he was a kept man, while others claimed he used to be a gigolo. The rumors sounded detailed and convincing.There were even so-called photos as proof. While they were blurry and the person in it merely had a build similar to Matthew's, it was enough to ruin his reputation.He was called in by his advisor and faced the possibility of being expelled again.Evelyn was furious when she found out. She used her family's connections to investigate, only to be shocked by what she found.The one behind the rumors was Lewis.And worse, she uncovered the real reason Matthew had been expelled during his junior year.Back then, he'd turned down a rich girl, and her boyfriend ended

Seeing what was happening, Lewis stepped forward and tried to pull Evelyn up. "Don't do this, Eve. He's just a guy who's after money. Just let him go—""Shut up!" She whipped around, her eyes bloodshot as she glared at him like she wanted to tear him apart.She shook off his hand violently, her voice hoarse. "Get out! Don't let me see you ever again! If it weren't for you… If it weren't for that damn bet…"She didn't finish her sentence, but he could see the hatred in her eyes. It was pure hatred for him, but even more for herself.…In just one year, Evelyn became a completely different person.She stopped racing and going to bars, and even cut off all her so-called friends. She took over her family business, growing quiet, decisive, and almost ruthless.But the one thing Evelyn did the most was to look for Matthew. She searched for him high and low, using every connection she had.But he had disappeared completely, as if he'd vanished from the face of the earth—until one afte

Third-Person POVEvelyn was finally able to get out of bed a month later. She still needed crutches, but she couldn't wait any longer.She insisted on getting discharged, ignoring Lewis' attempts to stop her and even getting into a huge fight with him.She had to see Matthew. She wanted to tell him that she was alive, that she regretted everything, and that she wanted to live an honest life with him.As Evelyn stood in front of the door to the familiar rental apartment, leaning on her crutches, she felt an unexpected wave of nerves.She straightened her clothes and took a deep breath before knocking. No one answered."Matt, it's me, Eve! I'm back!" she called.Still, there was no answer.The unease in Evelyn's chest grew heavier. Her knocks grew louder, and she even started pounding on the door.The door finally opened, but it wasn't Matthew.A middle-aged woman stood there, looking at her warily. "Who are you looking for?"Evelyn froze, instinctively glancing inside. The in

Matthew's First-Person POVMeanwhile, I leaned against the window of an old, rattling train, watching the scenery blur past with a calm expression.That night, as the flames shot into the sky, my heart did jolt for a moment. It was the instinctive fear and reverence for death.But what came after was a sense of relief I'd never felt before. It was as if a heavy set of chains I had been dragging around for a long time had finally snapped.Once I returned to the rental apartment that was full of memories, the first thing I did was throw everything related to Evelyn into a pile and light it all up.The flames rose high, lighting up my dry eyes.I watched the photo of us curl in the fire, blacken, then turn to ash. In the photo, Evelyn's smile was carefree, while mine was cautious."Evelyn, we're even in this lifetime now," I murmured.Once I dealt with everything, I moved out, changed my number, and blocked everyone related to Evelyn.With the little luggage I had left, I boarded

There was only one day left before the bet ended.Early that morning, Evelyn suddenly shook me awake. She was buzzing with excitement when she said, "Matt, I heard there's an underground street race with huge prize money tonight! We'll have enough for the surgery if I win!"Looking at the smile li

The next day, I went for my shift at the cafe as usual.This was my third job. I'd pushed myself close to my limit just to earn enough for the surgery.I hadn't expected to run into Lewis again.He walked in with several rich scions. The moment he saw me, he raised his brows in mock surprise. "We

I couldn't even remember how I made it back home.It was a damp and dim rental just under 300 square feet. It was nothing like Evelyn's flashy, over-the-top club.The motion-sensor light outside had been broken for a long time, so the hallway was pitch black.Every time we walked through the hall

Matthew's First-Person POVEvelyn Carter said, "I lost a game back at the bar, so I just picked some random guy to do the dare with. I didn't expect him to be this easy to fool. I pretended to be blind and stayed with him for a whole year, and he actually believed it without question."Lewis Ross
