My Ex's Betrayal Chapter 7
Laura collapsed to the floor. She suddenly looked ten years older."I-I was wrong, Shawn! You have to give me a chance to change!" she sobbed.Shawn shook his head. "You're not sorry. You're just scared."I didn't want him to throw his life away over people like them, but there was nothing I could do except watch as it all unfolded.Three days later, when Laura's reputation was in tatters, Shawn had her committed to a psychiatric hospital. While he wasn't watching, Chris tried every trick to escape the basement.He didn't know Shawn had installed cameras down there. Just when he thought he'd run for his life, Shawn planned to deliver the final blow.Chris, having made it to the basement door, stared at Shawn as if he had seen a ghost. He was still trying to flee. Shawn kicked him, and he tumbled down the stairs.Chris lay on the floor with a swollen face while he screamed, "Shawn, you already got your revenge! What more do you want?""That was revenge on her, not you."Sha

Hearing that, Shawn slowly lowered his raised fists.He slumped to the floor, hands over his face, while tears kept slipping through his fingers. He balled his fists and hammered them against his own head again and again."I deserve to die! I really deserve to die! He suffered so much. What was I even doing?"Even if I didn't exactly have a body, watching him like that made my chest ache."It's not your fault, Shawn."After catching Chris and me in bed together, Shawn had come to me more than once, begging me to tell him if there was some reason or excuse for it.I was the one who told him that Chris had spoken the truth.Because of Shawn's mother, my family was torn apart.Even if Shawn himself had nothing to do with it, there was no way we could be together anymore.If that was already the case, why tell him the truth and make him suffer the way I did?But now, Shawn couldn't hear me.He staggered up. His hollow eyes were terrifying to look at.Laura had paid Chris to dru

That night, I had just gone out to dinner with friends. When I woke up, I found myself naked in bed with Chris.Shawn stood in the doorway, staring at us like he couldn't believe it.He was holding flowers and a diamond ring, and his parents and friends were standing behind him."Shawn, I won't hide it anymore," Chris said. "I grew up with Fred, and we like each other. He wouldn't have said yes to your proposal. He dated you because you had money. I needed cash lately!"I scrambled to explain, but I was so shocked that I couldn't get a single word out.By the time I could speak coherently, Shawn had already been dragged away by his parents and friends.I turned to Chris, furious. "Why would you do this to me?!""My dad's sick and we needed the money. Shawn's mother said she'd give me 300 grand. If Shawn can date you, why can't I? I've always liked you. I just thought you weren't into guys. Even if it wasn't me, she would have arranged someone else. I did it for your own good!"
My Ex's Betrayal Chapter 4
This morning, my aunt called and told me that my mother was dead.Lyla hated me. Her last instruction before she died was that my aunt must arrange the funeral, and that I was absolutely not allowed to attend.Our house was in a well-off suburb. A few families had been trying to buy it. I sold it cheap, gave 100 grand to my aunt for the funeral, and used the rest to pay off debts. Then, I went to the company.My entanglement with Shawn should have ended long ago."Fred!"I heard Shawn shouting my name. He trembled as he reached for the knife and tried to take it away.I still had a chance to save myself, but I gave up. My parents were both gone.All the debts were paid.Now, I didn't have to force myself to stay in this world anymore.I grabbed Shawn's hand and pushed down hard. The knife pierced deeper into my body—the pain was insane."Shawn… I kind of regret saying yes to you back then."Had I refused him, would things have turned out differently?My speech was slurr

"Who's there?" asked my mother, Lyla Sadler. Her voice, weak and hoarse, called from inside as I yanked Shawn into the stairwell.I couldn't let him see my mother! She wouldn't be able to take it. There were some things I never intended to let Shawn know. All I wanted was to keep him away from that ward. Nothing else mattered. Once the stairwell door shut, I realized in a panic that I was practically pressed against Shawn, pinning him to the wall.Embarrassment hit me a moment later, and I tried to back away.Shawn's gaze darkened. Without warning, he grabbed my chin and kissed me.We were already broken up. He hated me, and I hated him. We should have been like two parallel lines that never crossed each other's path. That would have been best for both of us.I turned my head to avoid his kiss.However, my resistance seemed to anger him. He yanked my hand up above my head and shoved his other hand under my shirt, rubbing my most sensitive spot.My body reacted before my
My Ex's Betrayal Chapter 2
Feeling groggy, the memories I had tried so hard to bury came flooding back.The first time Shawn and I met was on a rainy, slippery day. His driver couldn't stop in time and hit me with the car.I injured my left calf and needed two or three months to recover.I was a freshman then, while Shawn was a junior.We happened to go to the same college. He felt guilty about the accident and pushed me to class in a wheelchair every day. He even brought me meals. After a while, we became close.He was two years older than me. We were in the same age group, but very different from each other.I hung out with friends and went for dinners, shopping, and trips together with them.Shawn, on the other hand, would go back to the company to learn how to run the business. Apart from classes, he went to plays and concerts, rode horses, shot arrows, and played golf.Our worlds were completely different, yet from the start, we grew very close.Shawn didn't understand why people wasted time on vid
