"Don't you ever say that. It's disgusting!"

Orson staggered back from the shove, barely catching himself. His eyes instantly grew red.

"I already explained that the wedding photos were fake. I was on a business trip that day, remember?

"There's nothing between me and Imogen. She's always been like a little sister to me. If you don't like it, I won't see her again.

"You made everyone hide where you were. It took me forever to find you. I flew ten hours just to be here.

"Maude, please… I'm begging you. Don't treat me this way. I can't handle it anymore."

His voice cracked, filled with pain and desperation.

Maude pressed her lips tightly together, nausea twisting in her chest.

"Orson, have you lost all sense of shame?"

He stared at her in a daze.

"What happened? What exactly did I do wrong? We'd been together for five years and were about to get married. How could you just walk away like that?"

Maude met his gaze with a blank expression.

    Imogen became pregnant just one day before Orson and Maude were supposed to tie the knot. The timing couldn't have been more perfect.Orson's body froze. His lips quivered uncontrollably as panic flooded him."M-Maude…"However, Maude simply smiled."Congratulations."The word struck Orson's heart like a blade, leaving it raw and aching.He couldn't stop shaking.In that instant, the truth hit him hard.He had ruined everything with his own hands.There was no chance Maude would ever love him again."Come on, Orson. We have a flight to catch," Imogen said, sliding her arm through his.Maude's eyes shifted toward Imogen."It seems like you're stuck with him for good now."Imogen nearly lost her composure.Maude's lips curved into a faint smirk."Congratulations," she said again.With that, she turned and walked away.If Imogen had chosen to go down with Orson, that was her decision.She would have to live with the consequences.Maude picked up her pace. She didn't wan

    In the photo, Orson held Imogen in his arms while the photographer searched for the best angle to capture the scene.Calm and composed, Maude sent a few messages into the group chat."I took that photo myself. I was the one who hired the photographer for our wedding shoot.""Imogen even thanked me afterward. She said the photos turned out beautifully because of me.""Orson, do you really want me to keep sharing more proof?"After those three messages, the group chat fell completely silent.The loudmouths who'd been so quick to judge were suddenly speechless.After a long pause, Orson finally began to type."Maude did nothing wrong. I'm the one who failed her."Maude stared at the screen, her gaze cold and unyielding.She'd grown tired of these late apologies. All they did now was make her feel sick.She paid no mind to anyone else's reactions and simply left the group chat."Remove me, too. After all, a couple should stick together," Levi said.Maude glanced at Levi before

    To Orson's surprise, the person who stepped inside was Imogen."You're finally awake! Do you know how scared I was?"She hurried forward, tears of relief shining in her eyes.However, as she reached out to take his hand, Orson shoved her away."What are you doing here?"His cold, piercing stare bore into her, and Imogen's smile quickly vanished."Who did you expect? Maude?"You spent three years preparing and were just about to become CEO. Because of her, you threw it all away. You gave up everything, but did Maude ever even look your way?""Shut up!" The veins at Orson's temple stood out. "None of this would've happened if it weren't for you."Imogen laughed bitterly through her tears."Orson, do you even have a heart? You were the one who chased me! You said Maude was just an obligation—that I was the only one you ever truly wanted to marry!"However, Orson's face betrayed no emotion. "Don't act like you're innocent. You knew from the beginning you were the other woman. No

    Soon after, Orson managed to get himself a car. Whenever Maude left for work, he'd wait outside her office.At the end of the day, his car would be parked in her driveway, where he left it overnight.He took care to prepare all three of Maude's meals each day and had them delivered just in time so they stayed warm.He even went out of his way to bring her favorite snacks from back home, quietly leaving them at her apartment door.However, without fail, Maude would give those snacks away to strangers right before his eyes.In just a week, Orson's weight dropped noticeably, his condition deteriorating with each passing day.Every time their eyes met, tears welled up in Orson's, heavy with desperation and longing.Yet, Maude would swiftly turn away, treating him like a complete stranger.She wanted nothing more to do with him, and she certainly didn't want to make Levi uncomfortable.Before long, the first snowfall arrived, and the temperature plunged sharply.Knowing Maude fear

    At that moment, Orson seemed shattered, but Maude was unmoved."Yeah, it's exactly what you think. Didn't you already know?"Without another word, she turned away and closed the door firmly.Inside, Levi waited quietly at the dining table.As she approached, he gave her a fork and knife.Her fingers trembled slightly."Why didn't you come out earlier?" she asked.That wasn't like Levi at all.From the start of their relationship, he was never secretive about it. Everyone at the branch office knew he had moved abroad because of her."Maude, I used to be afraid," Levi said, a faint smile playing on his lips. "But not anymore.""...And why's that?" "Because I know you, Maude. You're not someone who looks back," Levi replied, his eyes burning into hers. "Maybe you don't fully love me yet, but I trust your sense of responsibility. One day, you'll love me more than you ever loved him. I'm worth your devotion."His words sent a subtle ripple through her heart."Why are you makin
