Chapter 8

Author: Sunny Embrace
Seth found me just as I was getting off work.

He was waiting for me in the parking garage.

The moment he saw me, he rushed over and grabbed my hand. "Yvette, can we talk?"

I hadn't seen him in months. He looked much worse and was terribly thin.

I didn't turn him down. Instead, I simply told him to get into my car.

Then, I drove to another neighborhood.

After we had driven for a while, Seth finally asked cautiously, "Your place isn't this way, is it?"

I didn't answer. I waited until we s

I didn't answer. I waited until we stopped the car and walked into an elevator."I came back to grab a file. It's pretty urgent," I said.When the door opened, a handsome man stood in the living room and smiled at me."This is Connor Graham, my boyfriend." I introduced him simply. "Seth Larson. I've mentioned him before.""What did you say?" Seth grabbed my hand in disbelief. "Your boyfriend? It hasn't even been six months!"I yanked my hand away. "So what? Connor and I have been living together for a week, and we made things

    (Yvette's POV)Every moment after I left the country felt like freedom.At my new company, I no longer had to hold myself back out of fear of crossing some invisible line. I had a normal, healthy working relationship with my superiors and coworkers.More importantly, my hard work was finally seen for what it was."You're saying you worked at your old company for years and never got promoted?"My new coworkers were all shocked when they heard about my work history."How is that even possible?""Was your old boss too hard on you, or did you do something to upset him?""Or was there something you couldn't let go of that made you willing to put up with it for so long?"When faced with their curiosity, I would simply smile and say nothing more.Maybe it was all of those things.Seth's extreme caution about hiding our relationship meant I never got a chance. Back then, I was willing to follow along.When he confessed his feelings to me, the only thing he asked was that I stay by

    Seth was in a complete panic. He had never imagined that Yvette would really leave him."Headquarters? How did she even get in touch with them?" he asked."The chairman of the company that recruited her called our chairman. He wanted to make sure she could leave as soon as possible," Melisa explained nervously.Seth pulled out his phone and started calling Yvette like a man possessed.Not one call got through.Yvette had already blocked him everywhere. When he asked some of her friends about her whereabouts, they all refused to tell him anything."Why are you looking for Yvette? Who are you to her?""Yvette told me you two broke up.""Besides, even if you hadn't broken up, you never treated her like your girlfriend, did you?""When she was sick or moving house, when were you ever there for her?""You were so determined to keep your distance. Then, stay away from her for the rest of your life!"One call after another ended with them hanging up on him. All the shameful thought

    (Third-Person POV)"Seth, why do you have so much trash in the living room?"Seth's confused friends walked through the door."There's a note on this. It says, 'Returned to its rightful owner.'" One of them read it aloud."No way! Are you and Regina really breaking up?""Regina's always been so sweet. What did you do to make her return everything?""No wonder you needed all of us to help you win her back tonight!"Everyone burst out laughing, while Seth stood in the middle, looking pale and dazed. "Don't touch it!" One of his friends had just reached for a trash bag when Seth suddenly lunged forward like a madman and shoved him away."No. That's impossible!"His mind was in chaos as he stared at the bags. His breathing was unsteady.It wasn't just the gifts.Yvette had returned everything that had anything to do with him.Even the bracelet they had gotten when they first fell in love was sitting right on top.She really meant to cut him out of her life completely!"Wait

    I didn't quit right away because I still had a project to finish.It affected the whole team's bonuses, and I didn't want to walk away and leave my coworkers to deal with the fallout.However, the day before we were supposed to sign the contract, I walked into the office and found a crowd gathered around my desk."Ms. Small is here!" someone called out, and everyone else turned around to look at me.All of them looked at me with disgust. "Yvette, why did you steal Regina's proposal?"The person who got up from my desk was Seth."This was her hard work, and you stole it to make your own project look better?" He looked deeply disappointed. "Do you have any professional ethics at all?"I was shocked. I rushed over in disbelief and stared at the screen.One was Regina's proposal, and the other had been opened from my folder.The two files had been created just one day apart.Somehow, mine was dated one day later than Regina's!"That's impossible." I looked up, speaking slowly an

    Seth's messages trickled in over the next three hours.Sometimes he asked who I was meeting.Other times, he told me to stop fooling myself. No matter what excuse I came up with, he wasn't going to change his mind about promoting me."Where would you even go without me? Stop going after Regina. When the next promotion comes around, I'll give you a chance."When he sent that message, I was having dinner with the head of an overseas company. He had flown halfway around the world to meet me.After dinner, I booked my flight for next week.The office gossip group was buzzing all night too, filled with photos of Seth and Regina on their "date".When Seth went to the movies with me, he had always insisted on sitting in the first or last row. He said we had to be careful."Regina is timid. She needs someone to stay close to her."Seth had probably seen everyone in the group chat cheering them on as a couple, so he sent me that half-hearted explanation.I still didn't reply.Instead
