I Dumped My Childhood Friend And Boyfriend

My mother nodded and offered me some words of comfort before she got up to make the call. After I returned to my room, I lay in bed. As I stared at the familiar ceiling above my head, I remembered the first time I saw Claire hugging William. At that time, I had been furious and rushed over to pull them apart. Before I could even demand answers, Claire had already started crying and apologizing. She said, “I’m sorry, Yggdra! I’m really sorry! I didn’t do it on purpose. I was just too sad…”William pulled Claire over while she was still apologizing and shielded her behind him before giving me a scowl. “Yggdra, Claire didn’t do anything wrong. Cut her some slack. I was just comforting her just now, anyway.”Perhaps I had really acted like an unreasonable woman at that time because I had pointed at Claire and shouted, “Comforting her? Do you need to hug her to comfort her?“And are you saying I’m making her life miserable? How am I doing that, then? Tell me!”William smacked my

After I got home, I had a good talk with my parents. Naturally, they were against the idea of me jumping into marriage so soon. But once they heard my thoughts about this, they said nothing else. Part of this was also due to the trust they had in Richard. After all, they knew his entire background. That night, I slept surprisingly well. After all, the things that had tied me down for far too long had disappeared. Who would have known that John would turn out like this?My father was best friends with John’s father, and they bought houses near one another. Hence, we studied in the same class since elementary school. When he fought with kids from other classes, I would wait for him with our school bags. When he got into a relationship during middle school, I covered for him. He was like family to me, and he grew up with me. I thought of him like a brother. When we got to university, we chose to study law together. When I first got together with William, John found hi

I had wanted to say many things to John and William, but far too many things happened later on, and I did not want to be falsely labelled as someone who bullied newcomers anymore. But I did install a camera in my office.Then, I would be able to give John and William a “pleasant gift”.I went to the washroom halfway through the meal. To no surprise at all, I met William at the door. “Who is he? You’re already eating with another man just a few days after our breakup? Do you really need to cheapen yourself like this?”I huffed in exasperation. “Do I need to remind you that you were already hugging and holding hands with Claire before we broke up? You also brought her breakfast every day. You cheated on me multiple times. I’d be cheapening myself if I spent the rest of my life with you instead! Get out of my sight!”With my rose-tinted glasses gone, everything William said to me just made me want to puke. I ignored William’s sullen expression and hurriedly returned to my table.

If they had just believed in me a little more, Claire would not have been so successful in her endeavors. But they did not, and they deserved all that was happening to them. During dinner, I spoke to my parents about this, and I felt fortunate that I had left before it happened. Claire had taken a lot of pictures of documents, so the law firm must have suffered quite a significant loss. …Two days before I got married, I saw John and William sitting on the couch when I went downstairs. I scowled as I sat in front of them. John looked haggard, and he did not even shave his stubble properly. “Yggdra, I’m sorry. I didn’t know about this. I really didn’t. I wasn’t expecting Claire to do this. “Why didn’t you tell us?”I scoffed. “Heh. Didn’t I? Did you believe me back then?“Even now, you’re trying to shift the blame to someone else. Do you really think that Claire is the only problem here? Did she cast a spell on you two? How exactly did she make you two kiss her feet s

Once we got married, we went to visit Angela, and it was obvious that she was really happy, even though she no longer had the energy to smile. Richard held Angela’s hand in one hand while he held mine in the other. It was as if he were a link connecting us. That night, both of our families ate together. I told my parents that we intended to try living together as a proper couple. My parents were happy. Richard looked at me tenderly, and the love in his eyes made me blush. But to my surprise, I saw William when we got home. My parents’ expressions changed. They went inside without even looking at him. I felt a little annoyed too. I stood a few paces away from him as I motioned for him to begin talking. Feeling embarrassed, William tugged his collar. “Yggdra, I’m sorry. I know that you’ve suffered a lot over this period of time.“I realize what I’ve done wrong now. We’ve also suffered from far too many misunderstandings.“Since we’ve been together for such a long time,
