Chapter 9 Hopeless Romantic

Author: Destined Studio
The girl's voice was very soft, as if she were talking to the guy, but also intentionally speaking into the microphone. She said, "He kissed me last night..."

And then the call was hung up.

I stood there dumbfounded, gradually feeling numb and cold.

I firmly believed that I didn't mishear. Although her voice was not loud, the surroundings were quiet.

So, who was she? Did she mean Edwin when she said "he"?

Did Edwin really do that? Was it because he drank too much and lost control, or...?

Could it be that he wanted to break up with me? Thinking of this, I sat on the bed in a daze.

I spent the whole day in a daze, wanting to call him and demand an explanation several times, but I didn't dare.

I anxiously waited for him to call me first and give me an explanation.

After a whole day passed, it wasn't until before bedtime that he finally called me on video.

"Let me see your room," he casually said, lying in his dimly lit room.

I bit my lip and didn't move.

He frowned and asked, "What's wron

Who would believe him?I sat in my black Porsche, watching Edwin and his mother scream and reach out to each other, desperately trying to hold on.But they were mercilessly separated by the doctors and police officers.The white ambulance drove away, and the police left. Only the miserable wretch remained, kneeling on the ground, howling and weeping.Amara asked me, "Have you seen enough?"I nodded in satisfaction.The ne

  • I Sent My Manipulative Ex-boyfriend to Jail   Chapter 30 Edwin's Mother

    I took out a tall stack of money and placed it on the table. Gently pushing it toward him, I posed a single question, "Edwin, today I only want to hear one honest answer from you. Have you never truly loved me?"At that moment, there were only him and me in the room.Perhaps due to the relatively secure environment or the lure of money, Edwin unexpectedly joined me in reminiscing about the past.Gazing at the pile of money, he expressed remorse for his past actions and admitted to secretly spending hundreds of thousands of dollars behind my back."You know I don't care about money, and this sum means nothing to my family. So, approximately how much are these hundreds of thousands?"Without hesitation, Edwin replied, "Around eight hundred thousand."I nodded and opened the door. "You may leave now."Confused, he looked at me and then at the money. "What about the money?"I said, "You have to pay it back to me, of course."Only then did Edwin realize that I had tricked him. He rushed tow

  • I Sent My Manipulative Ex-boyfriend to Jail   Chapter 29 Shooting Advertisements

    When he heard there was money involved, he hesitated. After all, in his view, shooting an advertisement was just a few shots. But not everyone could be a model.Therefore, while he hesitated, the agent urged him on, and eventually, he signed the contract.For the next half month, I had people take him to the pigsty every day, accompanied by the few male pigs with bad tempers.Even before finishing one ad, Edwin had already been beaten to the point of a swollen, nearly disfigured face.Meanwhile, another ad was being urgently shot.This one was for a chicken farm, and Verne was the model.Verne was going to wear a chicken costume, only showing her face. She would lie in the middle of the chicken flock on a throne, looking like she was enjoying herself.Hundreds of roosters surrounded her. There were bugs under the throne, so the roosters would go over to peck at them.Occasionally, bugs climbed onto her clothes. With the roosters pecking at her, Verne would scream and curse in frustrati

  • I Sent My Manipulative Ex-boyfriend to Jail   Chapter 28 The Farm

    I asked Otelia, "Are they together now?""Together? Are you kidding me? How can he afford that gold digger after leaving you? They're just pretending to be deeply in love. Edwin was kicked out of his management agency because of his involvement with a signed artist. Now, he can't even see Verne, let alone be with her.""Then what does he do for a living now?""He went back to work on the pig farm of his family."I laughed. Knowing that he wasn't doing well made me happy.But it wasn't enough.After hanging up the phone, I told Amara, "Amara, I want to go back there."Amara understood me very well, but she still had some complaints. "As long as you ask, our father won't let them escape no matter where they go. Why do you have to go back yourself?""I can't sleep peacefully unless I see them 'die' with my own eyes," I said.Amara didn't try to persuade me anymore. She took care of the company's affairs and informed my parents. The next day, we went back to Senovia City.I had been away f

    When I regained consciousness, I found myself lying in bed. My mother and Amara sat beside me, wiping away their tears together.Seeing me wake up, my mother cried even more sorrowfully."Harper, what have you been through in these past three years? Why didn't you tell me about it?"Amara was also crying and complaining, "Why didn't you tell us all this? Whatever you've been through, we were here to support you. Why did you suffer alone?"At that moment, I couldn't bear it anymore and cried as I told them everything about Edwin and me.My father never came into the room, but he heard every word I said.Descending the stairs, he headed towards Edwin and delivered such a powerful kick that it broke two of his ribs.Edwin screamed in pain as the men in black dragged him outside and threw him in the yard.As I heard everything from upstairs, I looked out of the window for details. From where I stood, I saw my father's men beating Edwin mercilessly while Edwin was like a lost dog.The men m

    My parents happened to be out that day, and I was alone in the screening room watching a movie. Just during the film's emotional climax, the maid told me that someone was looking for me outside.I was surprised. I had just returned a week ago and hadn't even greeted my old classmates. Who could it be?And then, the moment I saw Edwin, it felt as though the world was collapsing once again.I couldn't comprehend why, despite all my efforts to escape, I couldn't shake him off.More importantly, I hadn't told my family about what had happened between him and me. But given his character, he would undoubtedly expose everything.How could I face my deeply loving parents and Amara?Trembling, I attempted to close the door. But he stopped me with one hand and pushed me into the house.He gazed up at the three-story villa, his eyes filled with undisguised greed, and greeted me hypocritically."Honey, why didn't you tell me when you came back home? You made me worry."Witnessing his attempt to ap
