His Lost Playlist Chapter 17
On the day we went back home, Benedict gave me a bouquet of white lisianthus.He told me the florist had recommended roses, but he remembered that strong floral scents gave me headaches.I accepted the flowers, unable to stop myself from smiling. "Benedict, how do you remember absolutely everything?"He pulled my suitcase beside him, his tone casual. "Because when you say things, I actually listen."The words were simple, but they carried more weight than every promise I had ever waited for before.…After our engagement, life did not suddenly become dramatic. Benedict stayed busy with work. I still worked overtime chasing projects, just as I always had.The difference was that no matter how late I got home, someone was always there to ask if I had made it back safely.Whenever I craved something spicy, he would take me out to eat it, but he always ordered milk and a few mild side dishes for me beforehand.When I casually mentioned wanting to try pottery, he had booked a trial

After the thank-you dinner, Adrian finally stopped pursuing me. He sent no more gifts. He no longer waited outside my building.Kelsey told me he had drunk himself into a stomach hemorrhage that night. When Jeremy rushed him to the hospital, he was still clutching that ring in his hand.After hearing it, I simply replied, "Noted."I no longer had the energy to feel responsible for his pain.…In late spring, headquarters selected my work project for an industry roadshow in Sotherra.When Benedict found out, he took it even more seriously than I did. He helped me polish my presentation and rehearsed it with me over and over, carefully timing every section.By the third run-through, even I was getting a little tired of it. But he remained on the couch, watching with the same patient focus."On the last slide, you can slow down just a little. That's your strongest point. There's no need to rush through it."I looked at him and smiled. "Doesn't this bore you?"Benedict smiled bac

Adrian's post practically exploded across our entire circle of mutual friends.He had always refused to post even a simple photo of the two of us together. Now, in front of everyone, he was openly admitting that he had lost me.Kelsey called the second she saw it. "Hayley, did you see it? Has he lost his mind?"I set my phone facedown on the table. "I saw it.""And? You're not going soft on him, are you?"I smiled faintly. "No."Comments started piling up under the post almost immediately. Some asked if he had been drinking too much. Others joked that he had finally fallen hard.A few people messaged me privately, asking if he was trying to get back together. I did not respond to any of them.Benedict had seen it too. He did not ask any questions. Instead, he quietly picked the cilantro out of my food during dinner."Jeremy's group is hosting a thank-you dinner tomorrow night. Do you want to go?"I looked up at him. "You got invited too?"He nodded. "Jeremy said the wedding

Inside the document folder was not a gift, but a small light blue notebook. The cover was worn, its corners softened by faint creases. I recognized it instantly. It was a wish list I had written years ago.[100 Little Things to Do with Adrian.]Back then, I had always imagined showing it to him someday. Instead, I had left it forgotten on his bookshelf.I stared at the cover, my fingertips lingering for a moment. It turned out I really had loved him that deeply once. Deeply enough that even when he brushed me aside, I still found excuses for him.A note was tucked inside the notebook, written in Adrian's handwriting: [Hayley, I only just found this. I'm sorry. What I owe you is more than just one apology.]I closed the notebook and dropped it straight into the shredder. I did not hesitate as the machine roared to life.As the pages disappeared into the blades, the light blue cover crumpled and tore apart bit by bit.The receptionist standing nearby asked quietly, clearly startle

After that day, Adrian started sending me things.The first was a pink-and-white birthday cake. The card read: [I'm sorry I didn't stay to finish your birthday with you last time.]I stared at the message for a few seconds. It suddenly felt strange, almost foreign.The version of me who had once waited for him to come back and cut the cake felt as though she belonged to another lifetime.The delivery driver said awkwardly that the sender had insisted the cake be placed directly into my hands.I pushed it back. "Please tell him I don't eat cakes that show up late anymore."The second was a pair of tickets to a musical. It was a show I had begged Adrian to see with me countless times.Back then, he had said he wasn't interested and even complained that the things I liked were boring. Now the best seats in the house had arrived at my doorstep, and all I felt was the irony of it.I gave the tickets to Kelsey instead.When I called her, she laughed in sheer disbelief. "He only just

Rachel moved into Adrian's apartment three days later.She stood at the door with two suitcases, her eyes faintly rimmed with red. "I don't have anywhere to stay in Norgona. You can't seriously expect me to stay at a hotel, can you?"Adrian remained silent for a moment before stepping aside to let her in. The room he pointed to, however, was not the master bedroom. It was the guest room."The guest room's over there. Stay there tonight."The smile on Rachel's face faltered for a second, but she pretended not to notice. "And you? It's already this late. Are you going out?"Adrian picked up his car keys, his tone unusually flat. "Something came up at the office. Don't wait up."That night, he never went to the office. Instead, he drove to the street below Hayley's previous apartment. He sat in his car for three hours.By the time he returned to the apartment, dawn was just beginning to break.Rachel sat on the couch with untouched takeout spread across the coffee table.She thre
