Chapter 7

Author: Anonymous
The next day, I rushed to the cemetery to say my final goodbyes to my father. I did not expect Helen to be at the entrance. She was in a black dress and was looking around nervously.

It looked like she was trying to find me.

She broke into a wide smile the moment she spotted me.

"Sam! I've been waiting for you for a long time. What took you so long?"

I took a step back.

"How did you know I was coming here?"

She looked a little embarrassed when I pulled my hand away from her.

"You've always been a filial son. You'll be leaving for a long time for this business trip. You'll definitely come here to see your dad before you go."

The look in my eyes was cold.

"Don't talk like you know me very well."

She reached out to help me adjust my tie.

"Let me help you with that."

I immediately stepped back.

"No need. I don't like strangers helping me."

Her eyes filled with tears immediately when I called her a stranger.

"Am I really just a stranger to you now?"

I was about to reply when

  • My Fiancée Married Her Crush   Chapter 9

    Five years later, I returned home with great honor as a renowned entrepreneur.I saw my former lover while surrounded by a group of bosses.She was the least noticed saleswoman in the shopping mall. Time had not been kind to her face.Helen was no longer the beauty she once was.I had provided her the financial freedom to maintain her quality of life. After she graduated, I used my connections to arrange a leisurely post for her at a company.However, her quality of life deteriorated after our breakup.She could hardly make a living for herself during the last few years.When I appeared in front of her, she was delighted and quickly wiped her hands on her shirt. She wanted to shake my hand."W… When did you come back? Did you miss me? I knew you couldn't bear to leave me."Everyone else turned to look at us with interest. I smiled in slight exasperation. "I'm just back to inspect my company's assets. What are you doing alone? Why isn't Zack with you?"She hugged her head at

    I started a busy and exciting new life after arriving in a brand new city.Many capable professionals took part in my company's project, so I had to work much harder than before if I wanted to stay on this project.My boring life became even simpler because of this.Besides training and making notes in the office, I would be making revisions at home every day.I even cut down my meal times. I would not go to the canteen until my stomach flared up from hunger.Of course, my hard work reaped results.Not only did I manage to stay on, but I was even given the chance to learn from an expert at the scientific research institution. Helen did not give up harassing me during this time.She would share unimportant news of herself with me every day in an attempt to evoke happy memories of our time together.These messages were deleted by me like trash.I never replied to any of them.After my training ended, I succeeded in getting an opportunity for a raise and promotion.On the day

    After I was done with work, I went home feeling fatigued as I pushed the door open.I immediately saw Helen sitting on the sofa.She quickly hid her phone and forced a smile at me."You're home. Zack's father is feeling much better. They're returning to their hometown tomorrow."I nodded and took off the engagement ring from my finger. I placed it on the table."You can start packing your things. It's not appropriate for us to be together since we've broken up."The smile on her face froze. She grabbed the ring and held it tight."I told you that I don't want to break up! I know I was wrong. Can't you forgive me this once?"There were tears in her eyes. She tugged at my sleeve while looking pitifully at me.I was surprised.She had never admitted her mistake to me like this when we were together. To use her own words, everything she did was for me.I had no right to blame her for anything.If she had apologized to me back then, I would have relented and forgiven her.How

    The next day, I returned to my office after everything had ended.I went straight to my superior's office. He looked at me incredulously as I spoke."The West Project is something I'm willing to take up. I'll leave for the Northwestern Region to work on this."It took several seconds before my superior broke into a smile."That's great! I promise that you'll immediately be promoted to manager when you return."I remained silent.When my superior suggested this a few months ago, I rejected the offer without hesitation.Back then, I could not leave Helen and my bedridden father behind.I was not willing to push all of the responsibility to Helen by leaving her for more than a year.It would be horrible of me to do something like that.However, it was different now. I would still grab this opportunity even if I did not get a raise or a promotion after returning.My father had passed away, and the last of my worries was gone.It was good timing as I wanted to find a suitable pl

    Helen did not react as I expected. There was a savage look on her face.She roared at me the moment I spoke about breaking up."What are you talking about? I won't break up with you. I didn't do anything serious. I just didn't have time to attend your dad's funeral. Do you need to make such a big fuss about this?”"Besides, I'm back now, aren't I? What are you so unhappy about?"Her face turned red with anger.Compared to her, I was much calmer."Would you forgive your son's fiancée if she got married to someone else on the day of your funeral? You're the one with the wishful thinking. Do you really think you can return to me after doing something like this? You must be dreaming.""Do you really want to break up with me over this?"Helen knew she was in the wrong. She took a step backward with a pale face.I was not really affected by what she did.Our relationship would never have lasted even if she had not run off to marry Zack.What was the point of forcing an empty shell
