Love on Ledger: My PhD Girlfriend Itemized Every Date Chapter 8
I remained silent and simply grabbed my tools.My hair was dyed a vibrant shade of red, and I was currently wearing an oversized black suit."Didn't you use to like shirts and jeans?" Sheila asked.I frowned. "I don't have time for small talk, if that's all you're here for."Back then, I'd forced myself into the version of me she preferred, all because she wanted me to dress and look more plainly.She'd never truly seen who I was deep down.I handed her a few of my hand-drawn sketches to choose from. She studied them for a long time before looking up at me and asking, "Which one of these is the most complicated? As in, which of these will take the most time to get done?"I paused before pointing it out to her.Sheila nodded. "I'll take that one, then. That way I can stay here a little longer."I brought out my card reader. "This one's pretty expensive. You'll need to pay first."Without hesitation, she tapped her card against the reader and made the payment.She smiled bitte

I packed my bags and left Ravenport the next day before dawn.The #ScumbagPhDGirlfriendLedger hashtag remained trending. Even Sheila's plagiarism of her thesis had been exposed.It turned out that her thesis bore striking similarities to that of a doctoral student under her father's supervision.Netizens demanded an explanation from her university. Hundreds of angry comments flooded the institution's official Facebook page.Sheila had already wiped her social media clean the night before.Saul, on the other hand, showed remarkable boldness. He opted to post directly, stating, "I'm just in a normal relationship. No cheating, no drama. Thanks for understanding."Around 3:00 am, Sheila transferred the first bit of money she owed to me. It was 20 thousand dollars—just enough to get me settled in Belton for now.Before turning my phone off, I deleted the hundreds of missed calls from her and blocked her on every app.When my flight landed in Belton, Mandy Crest, the owner of a Belto

Sure enough, it didn't take long before someone recognized Sheila's voice. The other netizens, too, followed that same trail and dug up her social media account, uncovering clear evidence that linked her to my story.Soon after, Saul's account was exposed as well.Everyone meticulously compared all the group photos from their university gatherings and class trips.In every single one of them, Sheila and Saul always stood side by side.Every small trinket Saul had ever given Sheila also happened to casually feature in her photos.Even the posts Saul made had Sheila's comments under all of them.The netizens became convinced that the two of them had been secretly involved for ages.Finally, they uncovered the Cartier watch Sheila had gifted Saul."So she has the money to buy her side piece a Cartier watch but still insists on splitting the cost of meals with her boyfriend?""That's a real eye-opener – never seen anything like this!""I'm a lawyer. If this bitch doesn't pay up,

Immediately after my speech, the live stream exploded. Viewership skyrocketed several times over."Wow, is the boyfriend personally coming on this live stream to expose her, or is this just some clickbait?""This guy is way too petty. If she's willing to pay him back, just let her go! Honestly, it looks like he's no saint either—wanting to trap someone with a PhD for life over 500 thousand dollars."At this point, I'd already been granted permission to share my video feed.I kept my face hidden, brightening the lights and focusing the camera on Sheila's ledger instead."Holy crap, he's getting straight into the juicy stuff!""Looks like this guy isn't just trolling for views. This is the real deal, folks!"I began speaking once more. "Your guesses are spot-on. I am indeed the ex-boyfriend—or, should I say, the fool who spent 500 thousand dollars funding my girlfriend's education. "Before I explain why I'm here today, I'd like to invite everyone to take a look at this ledger of

Calmly, I pointed to the scratch on the car. "It will cost you 500 dollars to paint over this. If you can add a car cover, that'll be even better."Saul's expression flickered, but a smile graced his lips. "Alright."As I bent next to the car to check for repairs, I suddenly heard Sheila's voice coming from outside the door.Saul knelt down deliberately, forcing the money into my hands.When Sheila walked in carrying a cake, this was exactly what she saw."I don't care if you make me kneel before you. I'm willing to pay you hundreds of thousands of dollars as long as you make up with Sheila! I can't bear to see her so unhappy."Sheila dropped the cake in shock before pulling Saul to his feet."That's enough, Ben Hope! I went out of my way to bring this cake over to make up for your birthday. Care to explain what all this is?"I gathered my tools calmly. "You saw what happened."Sheila caught sight of the study materials for the SATs that I'd tossed in the trash. She balled her

Saul shook his hand, which had just been scalded by the hot coffee. Feigning ignorance, he asked, "Did you two get into a fight?"Having heard the commotion, Sheila pushed me aside and rushed over to Saul. Her brows were furrowed as she dragged him toward the bathroom to rinse his scalded hand."Why did you slam the door so hard? Can you not be so crude?"Even though she'd clearly heard what the others had said about me, she remained silent on that front and chose to berate me for being ill-mannered instead.I was completely disillusioned. I went into the kitchen, boiled some water, and headed straight into the bathroom. Without hesitation, I poured the boiling hot water directly over Sheila's hand.She jumped. "Have you lost your mind?""No, I'm just giving you a perfectly reasonable excuse to hold his hand," I replied.After storming out, I immediately messaged a senior colleague in Belton. "I accept your invitation."The night had grown late. A torrential downpour had begun,
