“Stop talking to me like we’re close friends. Please. Seeing you like this right now disgusts me, don’t you get that?” I said, every word dripping with resentment as I stood up abruptly.

In an instant, everything he had done to me came rushing back. Every cruel word he had thrown my way. Every way he had destroyed me back then. It all flooded my mind at once. A burning heat spread through my chest, as if my heart were on fire again. The pain tightened around my throat, suffocating me.

“Where are you going?” he asked immediately as I turned to leave.

My whole world was shaking, and I could tell I was already drunk. I felt his hand close around my wrist, the brief sting of his touch burning against my skin.

“I’m going home. Far away from you. Don’t bother me anymore, we have nothing left to talk about,” I said firmly, trying to pull free from his grip. But it was too tight, forcing me to look up at him.

His gaze darkened as it locked onto mine, and then he smirked. He ran a hand through

    His jaw clenched as he muttered a string of curses under his breath, making my brows knit even tighter.“So you were with him earlier because you were the price for his help, is that it?” he asked coldly. “Tell me, Selina… did you tell him about Slater?”His seriousness only fueled my irritation.I bit down on my lower lip before letting out a harsh breath.“Why would I do that? And why do you think it’s easy for me to accept him?” I snapped. “He kept telling me he knew we had a child, but I didn’t fall for it, because I was thinking about you! Why are you taking this out on me?”“Because I’m fucking jealous!” he burst out. “The way he held you earlier, and the way you let him, made it look like you could still accept him! Like despite everything, you could still take him back!”He suddenly slammed the brakes, and the car lurched to a stop. I nearly smashed into the dashboard, I wasn’t wearing my seatbelt.I turned to him in disbelief. I saw the flicker of shock in his eyes, but the a

    I kept glancing around, waiting for a taxi, but swore under my breath when I saw Ethan rushing out of the restaurant, seemingly looking for someone.“Never mind, Melody. Let’s just talk later,” I said, ending the call.I was about to walk away when I heard someone call my name. Looking up, I saw him striding toward me in long, determined steps.“Where are you going? I told you to wait for me, I’m taking you,” he said, his voice firm and commanding. I frowned.“I can get back to the office on my own,” I declared, turning my back on him, only for him to grab my hand and spin me to face him.“I’m taking you. Let’s go,” he said, pulling me along.“I said I can handle it! Why are you so persistent?” I yelled, but before he could respond, Eleanor appeared, blocking our path.She looked down at my hand in Ethan’s grip, desperately trying to pull away, and raised an eyebrow.“What’s going on here? Ethan, what’s that?” she asked.I just exhaled, refusing to meet their eyes.“We’re going, Eli.

    I stayed facing the city for a few more minutes before a series of knocks broke the silence. The door opened shortly after, and I knew it had to be Ivy, she was the only one I allowed to enter without waiting for permission.“Ma’am, someone would like to speak with you,” I heard her say while my back was still turned.I rubbed my temple lightly and simply nodded without asking who it was. Whoever it was, they had to be important.“Just let them in, Ivy,” I said lazily.I didn’t hear her respond. Instead, I heard footsteps, several of them, until the door finally closed. A few minutes passed, yet no one spoke. I was about to turn around when I froze at the sound of his voice.“You have a nice office.”I turned immediately.He was already seated in the chair across from my desk, his expression blank except for the faint, unreadable smirk playing on his lips.I raised an eyebrow at him.“What do you want? The meeting ended a while ago. Why are you still here?” I asked flatly as I straigh

    When I woke up the next morning, breakfast was already prepared, and he was already dressed. While guilt still weighed heavily on my chest, he acted as if nothing had happened at all.“What’s your schedule today? Let’s have lunch together,” he greeted me with a smile as I sat down to eat.I glanced at my phone to check my calendar. I smiled when I saw that I didn’t have anything lined up except for one meeting.“I have an important meeting with our new investor before lunch. I’ll be free after that,” I told him, smiling genuinely.He simply nodded. “Then stay with me the whole night later,” he teased, even winking at me.I just laughed and continued eating. After breakfast, I got ready for work. I also took a moment to call Mom to check on Slater, we talked through FaceTime. I was relieved to see that he was doing fine now. He wasn’t sick anymore, though he kept pestering me about his daddy.Yuan drove me to my office. He almost didn’t want to leave since he didn’t have any important

    “Why did you lie to me when I asked you about your pregnancy?” he demanded authoritatively, and that was when I finally let out the breath I hadn’t realized I’d been holding.I didn’t know I had been holding it in all this time. All I felt was anger and confusion, confusion over something I shouldn’t even be thinking about anymore.Why am I here? Why am I standing in front of the man who destroyed my life back then? Why am I letting him get this close to me again?“I… did not lie to you. I wasn’t pregnant. There is no child. We don’t have a child. Stop this madness,” I said firmly as I headed for the door, desperate to leave.But he grabbed my wrist instantly, pulling me back until I almost crashed into his chest.“Why do you keep denying it, Selina?” he said firmly, tightening his grip. “Do you have any idea that you still don’t know how to lie, even now?”I yanked my hand away with all my strength and cursed repeatedly. I could see how persistent he was about this ridiculous claim.
