Chapter 5

Autor: You to You
I let out a mocking laugh. I was laughing at Loretta, and at myself.

All the resentment I'd been carrying disappeared the moment I finally saw the truth.

In the end, all that remained was a calm, bitter hatred.

When it came to love, I had lost to Loretta.

I lost because I gave my heart to the wrong person.

But in the real world, I wasn't going to stand by and watch them walk all over my feelings while they went on living carefree lives.

Loretta didn't deserve it, and her manipulative junio

  • My Introvert Girlfriend Comes Alive for Someone Else   Chapter 11

    Though the plan changed, I had no choice but to bite the bullet. I pulled out the ring box from my pocket."I left so quickly the last time for two reasons. First, I wasn't expecting you to say what you did. And second, I always thought that when it comes to confessions, the man should be the one to do it."Bella, if you're willing to stay by my side, I'd be incredibly grateful."I… like you."The moment the words left my mouth, my heart was pounding.After what felt like a century but was actually just a few seconds, I heard her reply."I'd love to."Just like that, everything fell into place.My ears rang. I got unsteadily to my feet, only to almost lose my balance again.When I stumbled straight into Isabella's arms, she giggled softly."Be careful, silly."I would've happily passed out on the spot.In the end, the confession setup I had prepared in advance still came in handy.The necklace I'd hidden inside the cake was discovered by Harry.He looked at me innocently.

    Isabella sighed. "But it seems she hasn't given you up yet. Looks like she's trying to get back together with you.""That's because I was the only one who used to accept her unconditionally. Now that she has nothing left, she instinctively thinks of me again."That's not love, Isabella. That's taking advantage of someone."Isabella nodded, then asked me another question."What if that person were me?"I was stunned. "What?""What if I were the person who knew how to cherish you?"Our eyes met. I could hear my chest pounding in my ears.Suddenly, my lips felt strangely dry. I stammered, "It's getting late. We should head home."I hurriedly said goodbye to Isabella. The moment I got home, I messaged Harry."SOS!"He replied immediately. "What's happened? Did Ivan break into your house?"I almost laughed at the response."What? No! Ivan is practically on his way to prison."Harry relaxed."Then what is it?""I need to plan a confession and want you to help me figure out th

    Ivan was not the type to take a beating without fighting back. He retaliated and, in the process, struck Loretta's father hard enough to cause a brain hemorrhage.Once things escalated, the ambulance and police arrived at the scene. Someone had recorded the whole incident and uploaded it to the university forum, sending the entire campus into an uproar.Ivan had only been detained for several days after assaulting me. His academic advisor had managed to keep him from receiving a disciplinary record that time. However, after what happened now, a formal warning would be the least of his problems.At the hospital, Loretta was trembling uncontrollably. Her brother, David, had rushed over from their hometown and punched her the moment he saw her."You bitch! You got pregnant before you were married, spent all your money on a man, and now you've gotten Dad hospitalized! You're such a burden!"Loretta covered her head and crouched in the corner, instinctively calling me. "Cas, help me… P

    "No, it's fine. I couldn't possibly trouble you."I stood up and looked down at Loretta."Don't you think it's inappropriate to keep tabs on your ex?"Loretta fell silent. Beside her, Ivan glared daggers at me.I continued, "Loretta, the way you're acting now is going to make Ivan think that there's still something going on between us. You don't want him ending up at the police station again, right?"Isabella stepped forward and positioned herself between Loretta and me."Sorry, but today is my date with Cassian. Would you mind leaving us alone?"The guy you're with seems pretty hostile toward Cassian. You should keep an eye on him instead of causing trouble for everyone else."Those two sentences were enough to shatter whatever composure Loretta had left.That night, I received a text from an unfamiliar number."Cas, I regret it."At that time, I had just finished watching a movie with Isabella. As we had dinner, I said apologetically, "I'm sorry you had to witness all that

    "Cas, Ivan is only a junior in college. If the school finds out he's been detained, he'll face disciplinary action. Please just let it go."Ivan gritted his teeth. "Lori, don't beg him! Guys like him love putting on a show just because they have a little money. I won't let you suffer because of me!"I laughed. "Yes, I do have a little money. At least, I don't have to rely on a woman to support me, unlike you. Oh, right. I've already had someone notify your academic advisor that you'll be in custody for the next few days. You can use this time to think about how you're going to explain this to your professor."As I left the police station, Loretta came running after me.Her voice was thick with tears."Cassian! You weren't like this before. Why did you change so much?""Because you're not worth it."I looked at her, but there was not the slightest ripple in my heart anymore."When you knitted him that scarf, went out to eat with him, and bought him a gaming console, you must've

    "You're too generous. I really ought to treat you to a meal as thanks.""Oh, right. Lori bought me the latest phone on the market too. Did she ever go that far for you when you two were together?"This time, I didn't pretend I hadn't seen Ivan's messages.I simply replied with three words."Go fuck yourself."Ivan apparently mistook my response for jealousy and became even more smug. "We're both men, Mr. Harper. You need to keep your emotions in check. Older men like you should be careful. You'll get wrinkles at this rate."I nearly laughed at his arrogance.Loretta's father had already followed her all the way here. I was curious to see how Ivan would deal with the old man.When we finally closed the deal, the company held a celebration dinner. It was the first time in a long while that I was able to relax.My boss even asked about my personal life. When I admitted that I was single, he immediately offered to set me up on a date.He practically started advertising me like re
