Chapter 5

Author: Royal Shrine
With a loud bang, Justin picked up a bottle and smashed it directly on Jackson's head, causing blood to gush out instantly.

"How can you compare me to Stella? She's a woman, and I'm a man!" Justin justified himself arrogantly.

Jackson, holding his injured forehead, glanced at him with disappointment, saying, "I don’t have a friend like you."

With that, Jackson left the bar without looking back.

Justin showed no concern as he carried on drinking with the others, enjoying the luxury and extravagance.

Losing a friend didn't appear to bother him.

The following day, the sun shone just as brightly.

Justin woke up and immediately went to see Jasmine, bringing along the luxury items he had bought previously.

The girl remained aloof, but her eyes still appeared pure and bright.

Her gaze was cold and indifferent as she looked at the hot coffee on Justin's left hand and the luxury items on his other hand. She received the hot coffee from Justin.

The coffee was still hot, instantly warming her palms against the chilly morning breeze.

Justin was extremely attentive.

"Why are you here so early in the morning?"

Jasmine's face still lacked a smile, but her eyes softened noticeably.

"Jasmine, this is for you." Justin handed the luxury items to Jasmine with a smile.

Upon seeing the luxury items, Jasmine immediately furrowed her brows, her expression serious. "Do you really think a few bags and clothes can buy me over? What do you take me for, Justin?!"

Jasmine took two steps back.

"Of course not, Jasmine. I know you don't care about these things, but I just wanted to get you something. I just want to see you happy," Justin pleaded hurriedly.

He persuaded and convinced Jasmine to accept the gift after calming her down.

Then, they promised to have dinner together another time before Justin drove to the Wright family's house.

"Mr. and Mrs Wright, what are you saying? Stella didn't come back all night?!"

Justin looked at Stella's parents in front of him, barely holding back from cursing out loud.

"Justin, now that Stella doesn't remember you, you should be more understanding," both of them said, their faces filled with guilt.

"Mrs Wright, please call Stella!" Justin suppressed his anger and demanded.

The phone call was made.

Justin got the address from Stella's mom. It was a room in a five-star hotel.

Furious, he got into his car and drove straight to the hotel.

Upon arriving at the hotel room door, Justin went mad, banging on the door as if he were insane, startling the surrounding guests.

"Sir, please calm down. If you continue like this, I'll have to call security," the lobby manager reminded him.

Justin punched the door, directing his anger at the lobby manager, shouting furiously, "My girlfriend slept with another man! How can I calm down?"

After scolding the lobby manager, Justin turned his fury towards me inside the room.

"Stella! You shameless bitch! Are you hiding someone inside? Did you sleep with that bastard Raleigh?!" Justin was on the verge of losing his mind.

He had been with his girlfriend for three years, yet he had never once slept with her, only for her to sleep with another man!

He wanted to kill them both!

Justin, who was waiting for someone to open the door, found himself faced with the arrival of the police instead.

I only dared to open the door when the police arrived. Seeing Justin, who was going crazy and showing violence, I hid behind the police and pointed at him, saying, "This man is crazy. I don't know him, but he harasses me every day!"

Justin, hearing this, completely lost his temper.

His eyes were bloodshot as he forcefully pushed aside the police blocking his path and rushed into the room, appearing ready to kill.

"That bastard Raleigh must be in here!"

    As our lips met, Raleigh's pupils suddenly contracted. This was our first kiss. I had kissed him once before, but it was just on the cheek. He lifted my head with his hand, deepening the kiss. After a while, he rolled over, allowing me to lie on the bed, and fervently kissed my lips. It was intense, almost animalistic. The air grew hot and humid. "Raleigh, Raleigh," I struggled to catch my breath, my tongue tingling, and I placed my hand on his chest, blushing deeply. "Aren't we rushing things a bit?" Raleigh's eyes were deep, with a hint of tenderness. "Sorry, I might have drunk too much," he said, but he pressed his body against mine, wrapped his arms around my waist, and drifted off to sleep.I struggled a bit but found I couldn't move. I glanced at him and noticed he appeared relaxed as if he was truly asleep.Since I couldn't leave, I spent the night at Raleigh's place. Early the next morning, I rolled over and fell into a warm embrace. Opening my eyes, I saw Raleigh lyi

    I searched around and found Raleigh in the second-floor bedroom. He reeked of alcohol, slouched on the edge of the bed, holding a wine bottle in one hand and clutching a photo frame in the other. His shirt was half unbuttoned, exposing his fair and sturdy chest.When I reached for the wine bottle, he released his grip.However, the moment I took hold of the photo frame, he abruptly opened his eyes, his deep and intense gaze locking onto me, clouded with the effects of alcohol."Don't touch this," he said, his voice husky. His words piqued my curiosity, so I smiled and asked, "Can I see?" "No," he replied sharply.Seeing his stubbornness, I didn't insist. Instead, I helped him up, laid him on the bed, removed his shoes, and then went to fetch him a glass of water. While he drank, I took a peek at the photo frame. It was a picture of me kissing him.“What’s so precious about this?” I wondered."Raleigh, why did you drink so much? This isn't like you," I asked in a serious tone as I

    Justin teared up.He was truly homeless now.Without any friends and lovers.Justin suddenly remembered his university graduation, a time when he got into trouble, ended up in the hospital, and was eventually kicked out of home by his father. It was Stella who came to his rescue and helped him out of that situation.Before, Stella would readily come to his side with just one call or message."Stella..." Justin sat at my doorstep for a long time. When he saw me come out of the house, he quickly stood up and called out to me, his gaze fixed on me.I paused my steps, looking at the miserable Justin, and was stunned for a moment.Justin got beaten up, his face bruised, his eyes devoid of their usual sparkle, and his clothes stained with mud."Mr. Reed, do you need something?" I asked expressionlessly.Hearing the words "Mr. Reed," Justin's eyes welled up with tears as he looked at me.He knew there was no chance for him to get back with me."Stella, if only you hadn't lost your memory, we

    Justin was speechless."I wasn't sincere with Jasmine, but what about you and Raleigh? Who are you to accuse me? You slept with him too, didn't you?" He found an opening and interrogated me."Whether I did or didn't, what does it matter to you?" I retorted coldly."The old me died the moment you pushed me into the sea. Everything afterward has nothing to do with you," I said, my gaze darkening gradually.Justin felt a pang in his heart seeing my indifferent expression. He grabbed my hand, still trying to argue. "I won't break up with you. I can just dump Jasmine. I don't love her at all. It's you that I love."Having been together for three years, Justin was always convinced that my love for him would last forever.I tried to break free from his grip, but this time he held on tightly. My dad intervened, pulling me behind him and slapping Justin."You disgusting bastard! If you dare come near my daughter again, I'll break your legs!" my dad berated Justine angrily before dragging me aw

    Justin's eyes lit up."Stella, really? Do you remember me?" He rushed over, gripping my shoulders excitedly, his eyes red with emotion.On the other side, Raleigh, upon hearing this, lowered the tablet and stared at the photos of us, his gaze dimming.It was all just a dream.He would eventually wake up from it."Do you recall that I'm your boyfriend?" Justin noticed my silence and intensified the pressure of his hands on my shoulders, urgency creeping into his voice."I remember," I said with a cold laugh.Justin was so excited upon hearing this that he wanted to hug me, but I raised my hand and blocked him."I remember I only agreed to be your girlfriend after you pursued me for three years. I remember how emotional you were when I finally agreed, and I remember your promise of a lifetime together. All of that is still vivid in my memory," I said, tears welling up in my eyes."But do you remember any of these?" I asked Justin.Justin was at a loss for words."You mentioned buying me

    "Mr. Reed, looking at Miss Wright's condition, you might need to spend more time with her, and take her to places you've been before. It might help her remember you," the doctor said."You’re useless! And to think you call yourself the best neurologist in the country. If Stella can't remember me, you can forget about keeping your reputation!" Justin shoved the doctor aside, scolded him, and then left.However, before Justin could put his plan into action, his father found the villa where he and Jasmine were living.Justin was holding Jasmine, drowning his sorrows in alcohol. When he saw his father, he stood up in fright, trembling as he spoke, "Dad, how did you..."Slap—Austin Reed had slapped Justin so hard that it rendered Justin speechless."I was wondering why Stella resigned to go to the Landon Group. It turns out you are having an affair! You bastard! Are you trying to ruin me?! Do you have any idea how important Stella is to our company!" Austin seethed with rage, his whole bod
