~Zane~

I looked out of the window again.

The truth was that I didn’t know.

Alexei had been close to Kiara on the show, and there had been moments when their interactions had looked intimate enough to make me question everything I thought I understood about her. Plus he had said he came to her even knowing she was my girlfriend and she didn’t deny the fact.

I had seen the way he sometimes looked at her, and I had hated the possibility that she might have chosen him over me.

I had allowed my jea

  • My Hockey Ex Rigged the Dating Show?   144. Tinsley’s Visit

    ~Alexei~My fingers tightened around the phone as I opened the post.The picture appeared to have been taken at a restaurant the previous evening.Tinsley sat across from Jun-Kai, laughing at something he had said, while he leaned forward with the sort of familiar ease that made it look as though the two of them had been close for years.The caption was even worse.DID STAR COUPLE TINSLEY AND ALEXEI ONLY DATE FOR THE SHOW? RUMORS SWIRL AS TINSLEY IS SPOTTED MORE FREQUENTLY WITH JUN-KAI FOLLOWING HIS BROKEN ENGAGEMENT TO HER STEPSISTER.I stared at the screen, my irritation rapidly turning into something much uglier.I enlarged the photograph, examining Jun-Kai’s expression. He looked perfectly pleased with himself, as though the universe had finally handed him an opportunity he had been waiting for.Of course, he was pleased.He had been waiting for an opportunity.I knew Jun-Kai well enough to recognise that he rarely did anything without considering what he stood to gain from it.

  • My Hockey Ex Rigged the Dating Show?   143. The New Tinsley

    ~Alexei~I had checked my phone seventeen times in the last thirty minutes.Seventeen.And every single time, I had found absolutely nothing that could explain why I was still pacing around my living room like a man who had lost his mind.Tinsley had said she was coming over today. She had called me less than an hour ago, informing me of her plans as casually as though she were telling an ordinary friend she would be stopping by to borrow a book.She hadn’t even given me enough notice to prepare myself for her visit, yet somehow, that short conversation had been enough to ruin whatever peace I had been enjoying that morning.I had been looking forward to seeing her ever since we ended the show, but I would rather die than admit how much her presence or, more accurately, the possibility of her presence had begun to affect me.I picked up my phone again.No new messages.“Unbelievable,” I muttered, tossing it onto the couch before immediately picking it up again. “She says she’s coming

    ~Zane~“Chloe,” I said, fixing her with a hard stare. “Tell her what happened that night. Tell her how much I had to drink and how I could barely keep my eyes open. Tell her how I woke up the following morning with no clear memory of agreeing to any of it. Go ahead. Since my mother seems to believe that being engaged to you meant you were entitled to my body, perhaps you can explain why I had no control over what happened.”Chloe shook her head frantically.“That’s not what happened, Zane!”“Then what happened?”Her lips trembled as she looked between us.“You were tired, and you had been drinking. We were together, and things just happened. I never forced you to do anything.”“Don’t lie to me.”Chloe’s face had turned pale.Mother, however, simply shook her head.“Even if things happened exactly as you’re describing, what difference does it make now? You cannot change the past. And you certainly cannot keep throwing it in Chloe’s face whenever you want an excuse to push her away.”I

    ~Zane~I looked between them, struggling to believe the conversation was actually happening.Everything Chloe did was somehow my fault while every objection I raised was treated as proof that I had no heart.I was expected to accept the engagement, marry her, merge our companies, and spend the rest of my life pretending I loved her.And if I refused, I would become the villain in a story where Chloe was always the helpless woman who had done nothing wrong.I was sick of it.“Do you want to know what I find interesting about this entire situation?” I asked, taking a step closer. “Everyone keeps talking about how much Chloe loves me, but nobody ever seems interested in asking whether I love her. Nobody cares whether I want to marry her or whether I want to spend the rest of my life waking up beside her. Apparently, my only responsibility is to make sure she gets everything she wants, even if it means sacrificing my own happiness.”“Love isn’t always about what you want!” Mother shot bac

  • My Hockey Ex Rigged the Dating Show?   140. Pregnant Chloe

    ~Zane~The moment I stepped into the house, I knew I was walking into a disaster.Chloe and my mother were waiting for me in the living room, and judging by the way both women turned toward the entrance at the same time, they had been expecting me for quite a while.My mother sat stiffly on the sofa, her lips pressed into a thin line, while Chloe stood beside her with her hands clasped in front of her stomach.For a brief moment, my eyes settled on Chloe’s face.Two months ago, I had decided to end our engagement. Two months ago, I had told myself that no matter how complicated the consequences became, I would no longer spend the rest of my life trapped in a relationship I had never wanted.Yet, somehow, here we were again, with the same woman waiting for me in my own house, wearing the same wounded expression that always seemed to make everyone forget that I was not the only person who had suffered in this relationship.And now, she was pregnant.I still couldn’t wrap my head around

    ~Zane~Marcus exhaled, leaning back against his seat.“I’m suggesting that you consider your options before you turn this into a war. You could negotiate a lower settlement, arrange a private agreement, or even postpone the announcement until the public offering is complete. I’m not saying you should marry her. I’m saying that the timing matters, and you need to understand what you’re risking.”“I’ve been understanding what I’m risking for four years,” I replied coldly. “I’ve risked my reputation, my privacy, and my relationship with the woman I actually wanted to marry. I’ve spent enough time doing what everyone else expects of me. I’m not going to spend the rest of my life paying for a decision I never should have made in the first place.”Marcus fell silent.For a few moments, I watched the city pass outside the window, my thoughts returning to the woman I had just missed seeing.Kiara was grieving. She had lost someone she loved, and the last thing she needed was for me to arrive
