At the supermarket, a child slams into my pregnant belly. The pain is so intense that I collapse to the floor and cannot get back up. I groan, "My phone... Call my husband..." Only after giving the child a slap does the woman pick up my phone. Apologizing repeatedly, she searches my contacts for "Husband". She calls several times, but no one answers. "Don't panic. I'll have my husband come handle this," she says, taking out her own phone and calling her husband. He answers after the very first ring. "Honey, our son got into trouble again! Adjourn your meeting and get over here. He knocked into a pregnant woman!" Ten minutes later, Shawn Leake, who is supposed to be working in another city, arrives at the scene. The first thing he notices is the child's swollen cheek. A look of concern crosses his face as he frowns and searches the area. He grumbles, "Was it really necessary to hit him? Who exactly did he run into—" The moment our eyes meet, his voice cuts off abruptly.

Our Love Ends Where His Lies Begin Chapter 11
Sela's POVThe next day, I saw Shawn outside my flower shop again.I truly had no desire to talk to him, so I simply closed the shop and holed up at home for several days.One afternoon, I stepped out into a light drizzle to take out the trash. The moment I turned around, I spotted Shawn standing not far away. I had no idea how he managed to find me here.He looked like he wanted to say something, but I didn't give him the chance. I just went straight back to my apartment.Outside, the rain grew heavier and heavier. Suddenly, the sky lit up, and a crack of thunder exploded across the horizon. I rushed to close the curtains, only to find Shawn still standing there in the downpour.The torrential rain had soaked him from head to toe. His clothes clung to his body, and water cascaded down his hair. He looked utterly miserable.Our eyes met through the window.Maybe he thought harming himself like this would make me soften toward him and that I'd forgive him. I couldn't help but fi
Our Love Ends Where His Lies Begin Chapter 10
Sela's POVI went to a small coastal town. One of the reasons was that the cost of living was low, and I could rent a decent apartment with very little money. The other reason was that it was remote enough that it would be practically impossible for Shawn to find me.Using the last of my money, I opened a small flower shop. It sat near the end of a street where foot traffic wasn't great, but the online orders were enough to cover my daily expenses.As days passed one by one, I made my first 1,000 dollars. Then my first 10,000 dollars. The shop grew from a tiny space of barely 200 square feet to over 500 square feet. Returning customers increased, and new ones arrived every day.I never imagined I'd actually be successful in this venture.Before I knew it, three years had flown by.I hired plenty of employees to manage things at the shop, while I personally oversaw a small branch. I also raised a small dog called Sunny.Whenever I wasn't busy, I'd move a chair outside the shop an

Sela's POVShawn carried Kelly carefully in his arms, and the three of them disappeared around the corner, leaving me alone amid the wreckage and humiliation.The candlelight on the table flickered, illuminating the shattered dishes across the floor and the glass jar that had rolled into a corner under the table.It was just like my six-year relationship—worthless and discarded without a second thought, with nobody caring about it at all.I didn't stay for another second. I stood up, straightened my clothes, walked out of the restaurant, returned to my rental apartment, and packed up the few belongings I had.I grabbed my golden piggy bank and smashed it. Folded banknotes scattered across the floor. I carefully picked them up, as though I were gathering the fragments of my wasted youth and what remained of my dignity.Everything else, I left behind. I didn't want, nor did I care to want again, anything connected to Shawn.I bought a ticket for the next available train. Then I bl

Sela's POVKelly rushed in, dragging Toby along behind her. Her fingers gripped her phone tightly; her eyes wild with panic and anger.The moment she stepped inside, she barreled toward us."What exactly are you two trying to do?"She slammed her phone down onto the table."The photos are all over the internet! They're all over the news!" she shrieked, her voice shrill. "Shawn Leake, who exactly is your wife here? The whole world is laughing at me right now!"She spun toward me, glaring as tears welled in her eyes."Have you no shame, Sela Wheatley? After everything, you're still clinging to Shawn, unwilling to let go? Are you only going to be satisfied after you've destroyed our family? Why don't you just die?"She wailed and shrieked, having completely lost control. There was none of her usual grace or composure left.Toby, picking up on her energy and seeing his father in such a disheveled state, instantly tilted his chin up and glared at me furiously."You bad woman! You'
