Chapter 4

Author: Manny
I called Desmond many times, but he never answered.

I could not sleep after I realized that all the money was gone.

The next day, I went to the bank to check the transactions.

It turned out that the three hundred thousand dollars had been withdrawn a few months ago.

Several months back, Desmond told me that his mother had been hospitalized, so she needed the money. According to him, his mother had a financial deposit that would expire in two months’ time, so she would return the money to us.

I did ask him about the money later on. He claimed that his mother had already returned it to him, and he had put the money back into our joint account.

Desmond laughed at me for being overly cautious. He said that his mother would not owe us money like that.

It seemed that he never returned the money at all.

Had he left with my money?

I was irritated over the matter when Christy gave me a call. “Paige, remember the house that you like at Blue Ocean Bay, the one with the small gar

  • My Boyfriend Gave Me A Fake Handbag   Chapter 10

    Nova’s ex-husband had found her cheating on him before. This meant that she might have a messy private life. No one could guarantee that she had only slept with Desmond. I simply brought up the subject, but I had planted the seeds of doubt in Desmond’s mind. After that, I no longer paid attention to them. I later heard that Nova gave birth to a girl. Desmond did a DNA test and found that the child was not his. Nova’s ex-husband laughed at Desmond for being cuckolded. After Desmond received the DNA results, he laughed and cried like a madman. He rushed into the hospital ward and grabbed the child from Nova’s hands. He wanted to kill the baby. Right then, Joe suddenly rushed up to him. “Desmond, stop! Blame it on me. This is actually my child. I’m sorry.”It turned out that the day Desmond got drunk, he was fast asleep. So, Nova could not do anything with him. She only undressed him and took a few pictures of them sleeping together to make Desmond think that they had b

    One night, Joe gave me a call. “Desmond’s suffering from internal bleeding in his stomach due to his overdrinking. He’s in the hospital now, and he keeps calling out for you. Can you come over and visit him?”“Joe, didn’t I tell you not to contact me anymore?”“You’re so heartless.” Joe told me that after this incident was exposed online, Mrs. Wood could not take it and ended up hospitalized. Desmond was taking care of his mother while working a full-time job and caring for Nova too. He was extremely busy, and he only had a few hours of sleep every day. Since he was too tired, he made some mistakes at work and got fired. Due to his exposed identity and the severity of the matter, a lot of companies did not want to hire him either. He had a monthly mortgage to repay, so he could not be jobless for too long. Hence, he chose to work as a delivery driver. Even though it was hard labor, it helped to alleviate some of his financial burden. “Is it my fault that he ended up in

    Nova thought she had me fooled. She then struck the metal while it was hot and posted an essay online. In it, she painted me as the third party who got in between her and her childhood sweetheart, Desmond. I then demanded over a hundred thousand dollars from him. The netizens who read it did not know the entire truth, so they started to criticize me online. However, I posted a chronological timeline of my relationship with Desmond and Nova’s domestic violence case online. I had done some digging on Nova’s case. Shortly after she got married, she became addicted to gambling. She had gambled all their money away. Her ex-husband worked two jobs from morning until night just to pay off the debt. Before they could finish paying it off, he found Nova cheating on him. Her ex-husband became furious, so he hit her. After their divorce, the loan shark went after her ex-husband and beat him up. Meanwhile, Nova lived a great life with Desmond’s money. With the truth exposed, ev

    I did not expect Nova to come looking for me. She came to my office building and kneeled in the lobby. She begged me to not force Desmond to pay the 150,000 dollars back. “Please don’t push my child’s father into a corner. Think about our unborn child.” She should receive an Oscar for such great acting. The lobby was crowded, and everyone stopped to look at us curiously.“Nova, don’t be shameless. Stand up.” She flung my hand aside and faced the crowd. “My child’s father owes Paige some money. He wants to pay her in installments, but she won’t allow it. She wants him to pay in full. I don’t earn much, and I’m pregnant, so our monthly expenses are high. Paige is trying to kill us. Would you want to be colleagues with such a cruel person?” Nova cried pitifully. Some colleagues approached me and told me to accept the installment plan. “Paige, if you’re not desperate for money, just agree to their suggestion to pay you back in installments.” “That’s right. They must be spe

    By the time I returned to my place, Desmond had already packed his things and left. The empty house seemed even more quiet. I looked at the keys that Desmond had left on the table. There was a small figurine attached to them. Desmond and I went on a trip once, where we saw an old couple selling trinkets on the side of the street. They were each other’s first love, and they had been together for a long time. They still looked very in love. I bought two figurine keychains from them. One figurine was wearing a tux, and the other was a little princess. I took the former and gave the latter to Desmond. However, the little princess figurine was laying on the desk at this moment. It was dirty, and it no longer looked the same as when we first bought it. I took the keychain off and threw it away alongside mine. Later, I saw that Nova had posted on her social media with the caption, [No matter how many times you pass by the right person, you’ll eventually meet again.]That nigh

    When I opened my eyes again, I was in the hospital. The doctor said that I had cut my forehead open. But it was only a mild concussion, so it was not too serious. Desmond was sitting next to my hospital bed, but I did not want to see him. “Don’t be angry. It’s all my fault.” He teared up. “Who’s the father of Nova’s child?”“...I am. She’s two months pregnant.” I closed my eyes as tears streamed down my face. Desmond told me that he discovered he had a rare disease from one of his checkups. As such, it would be hard for him to have a child. Afraid that I would leave him, he kept the truth from me. He knew that Nova liked him, but he only saw her as a younger sister. However, she once got him drunk, and he thought that she was me. So, he ended up sleeping with her. After that night, he was caught in a dilemma. He did not want to lose me, but he felt like he owed Nova. Therefore, he tried to satisfy all her materialistic desires. He never expected Nova to get pregn
