Whitney's smile faded. She stared at me in disbelief.

"What did you just say?"

"Didn't you want to break up? I agree," I replied calmly.

I had thought she'd be glad if I agreed to end our relationship. But to my surprise, she didn't sound relieved at all. She sounded shocked and angry.

"Neil, have you lost your mind? You're breaking up with me over one small matter?" She stared at me with wide eyes.

I didn't understand. Wasn't this what she wanted?

Now that I had agreed, why was she reacti

    "The recording is real. I admit that I falsely accused Neil to help Jude." Whitney's voice was clear and firm.Everyone in the courtroom heard her loud and clear.The livestream chat went quiet for a moment. Then the comments began flooding in again, with viewers cursing Whitney and Jude.Jude completely lost control. His eyes were bloodshot as he struggled wildly to choke Whitney. The court staff finally forced him face down onto the floor and held him there.Whitney walked over to me, apologized, and asked why I had been prepared for this.I remained as calm as ever and told her everything that had led up to this.Not long after I broke up with Whitney, Dylan had learned about their scheme by chance. He had warned me to be careful.When I had gone to Whitney's house to fix the pipe, I had known she might be setting me up. But I had gone anyway.Part of it was because I was worried about her. The other reason was the plan Dylan and I had made.After our project became a huge

    A week later, the trial began as scheduled. Since Dylan's company had made a name for itself and the case had drawn a lot of attention, the trial was streamed live online.Whitney's lawyer submitted all the evidence and aggressively tried to trap me with his questions.Whitney sat beside him in silence, unable to look me in the eye.Jude sat in the gallery, looking at me with the same smug, challenging expression he'd had before. He seemed certain I would lose.But when Dylan presented the evidence he had prepared, Whitney and Jude were stunned.At the same time, Dylan submitted a recording. Whitney and Jude's conversation could be heard clearly.Everyone in the courtroom learned about their scheme. They now knew that Jude had sold the company's confidential information for money, causing the company to lose a major opportunity. The company even faced an enormous penalty for breaking a contract.In the recording, Jude was sobbing uncontrollably. "Whitney, I'm still young, an

    Someone had posted the video online, and it spread like wildfire. Our project was already getting a lot of attention, so plenty of people who disliked us were happy to share it.Many people had no idea what was going on. Later, someone dug up the fact that I had left Whitney's company to join Dylan's. They compared how both companies had been doing a year earlier, and they began to believe I had stolen Whitney's company's most important secrets. Then they joined in and attacked me online. Some even called for a boycott of our company.I was taken to the police station. When I saw Whitney, who had filed the complaint against me, I noticed she couldn't look me in the eye.I had already figured out most of what had happened."You and Jude never broke up, did you? Jude was the one who stole the secrets and nearly drove the company into bankruptcy. "That day, you lied about the broken pipe just to make me part of your plan."I calmly told her what I suspected.I noticed several

    I was a little surprised.Before I could ask, Whitney spoke through her tears. "I tried calling a plumber, too, but it's too late. Neil, I know you don't want to see me, but I don't know what else to do."It's so late, and I don't know who else to turn to. I really have no other choice. If you don't help me, I might really…"She sobbed again, her voice sounding desperate.A strong wind blew through the phone, and I immediately sensed something was wrong."Where are you right now?"Whitney paused for a moment before answering. "The rooftop."I couldn't help thinking back to when we had first started the company. A bad business decision had cost us a great deal, and Whitney had nearly broken down. One night, she had written a farewell note and climbed onto the windowsill.Thankfully, I had found her in time. Otherwise, I couldn't imagine what might have happened.I thought she was sensible enough not to do something like this again.If I hadn't known what was happening, I wou

    In a fit of anger, Whitney fired Jude."But they still seem to be living together, though things between them have gotten even worse. I saw them go to the hospital once. They probably got into a physical fight."My former coworker felt sorry about how things had turned out. They were glad I had come to my senses and walked away in time.Whitney was so different from the person she had been before, and her company was in far worse shape. It was a good thing I left when I did. Otherwise, I might still be stuck in the same mess.I didn't say much about her situation.Everything Whitney had done to get where she was now was exactly what I had expected.She had brought this onto herself.Once someone took the wrong path, they would keep making the same mistakes unless they turned back in time.Clearly, Whitney had no intention of turning back.During this time, Dylan's company had become more profitable.
