Rich Dad Recovered: My "Broke" Girlfriend Regrets Everything Chapter 8
"Jas, how could you not remember me?"The words made my whole body go rigid.The scented candle on the vanity crackled and sparked. In that flickering light, memories from that stormy night when I was 17 years old came rushing back.Glass had shattered across the alley, glinting in the dark. A girl had pulled me close, her heart racing as she shielded me. I could still feel the warmth of her blood as it dripped from beneath her eye onto my hand."The scar near your eye..."The words came out as a murmur. My fingers traced the old wound without thinking.Summer turned me to face her. Her eyes were hazy from the alcohol but still bright."And the white roses every Wednesday at 3:00 pm..."Rain had started pelting the windows outside, harder now. I looked at the woman in front of me, at the flush spreading across her face. She looked so tender, so full of feeling.All those years, the mysterious customer who came to the shop every week for a single bouquet had been her. Summer ha

I'd carried her back to the rental, soaking wet, and warmed her frozen hands and feet.Later, she'd joked about it in that group chat. "Just messing around with some slum trash.""Iris, you lied to me for three whole years. You played me for a fool for three years."I'm not your toy. My feelings aren't that cheap."Iris collapsed into the makeup chair, her once tender eyes now bloodshot."It's not like that. I didn't—"During the time she was pretending to be poor, she'd actually fallen for me. But her friends had thrown their arms around her with teasing grins and asked, "Iris, you're not actually catching feelings, are you? When did your taste get so... unique?"Her pride wouldn't let her admit it, so she'd denied everything and joined them in finding new ways to humiliate me."They said my taste was awful. I just got confused for a moment.""Confused for a moment?" I laughed bitterly. "You watched me sell my grandmother's house for you. You let me drain every penny my mothe

After dinner, Summer went to the study to handle some company business, leaving Dad and me alone in the living room. He gestured toward the couch, signaling for me to sit."Back then, I failed your mother." His voice came out rough and worn. "If I'd just held out a little longer and refused to marry that woman, everything would be different now."If I'd paid more attention to your mother, I wouldn't have gone abroad during that time. I wouldn't have been stuck overseas because of the fog. I wouldn't have missed saying goodbye to her."He kept talking in fragments, as if he needed to unload every bit of guilt and love he'd been carrying. On the wall across from us hung a glass cabinet displaying photographs of me from childhood to now.Over the past three years, white roses had appeared at Mom's grave every time I visited. I couldn't forgive him on Mom's behalf. But in that moment, I couldn't ignore that he was still my father.I kept my head down. "It's in the past."…When Summ

I must have looked like a mess because she handed me a tissue without a word. My fingers trembled slightly as I took it, the paper still warm from her hand.The scent was faint, like gardenias.The scent stirred something familiar. When she removed her sunglasses, recognition hit me.Those amber eyes belonged to Summer Clemens. She was Dad's most prized protégé and a force to be reckoned with in the financial world.I'd met her three years ago when Mom died. She'd stayed with me outside the operating room for a full day and night. She'd also helped me arrange Mom's funeral.The day they buried Mom, Summer handed me Dad's business card. "Mr. Kirk, I won't pry into your personal issues with my mentor, but he asked me to give you this before I left. If you ever need anything, call that number."My parents fell in love 30 years ago. The Kirk family looked down on Mom's background and forced them apart.After Dad was pressured into marrying someone from the right kind of family, Mom

Iris' phone clattered to the ground. She lunged forward and grabbed the agent's sleeve, her expression fierce. "What did you say? Marriage? Who's getting married?"The agent flinched at her sudden aggression, his words coming out in a stutter. "M-Ms. Fulton, it's Jasper Kirk who's getting married. You said you know him, don't you?""Impossible!" Iris' voice rang out in fury.Her eyes had gone bloodshot as her chest heaved. The agent looked ready to collapse, but Iris had him by the sleeve in a death grip.Finally, her friends rushed over and managed to coax her into letting go. The moment he was free, the agent dropped the sublease agreement and bolted.Iris clutched the flimsy piece of paper, each breath growing heavier."Iris, Jasper's just playing hard to get. He's so crazy about you. How could he marry someone else?""Exactly. Maybe he's subleasing the shop to help pay off your debts!"Her friends kept talking over each other. Despite the panic churning through her, Iris tr

Iris knew perfectly well that I needed the money too badly to turn down such a large order. So she'd made those demands on purpose, just to watch me dance to her tune.I almost laughed through my tears at the realization.After I'd gotten home that day, I'd been thrilled to tell Iris how much money I'd made. When she'd bandaged my wounds so tenderly, had she been laughing at me inside? Thinking what a joke I was?I was wiping the tears from my eyes when the agent arrived.Seeing me standing by the door, he asked in confusion, "Mr. Kirk, the landlord's inside. Why aren't you going in?"I stared at him in shock, my eyes still wet. "What did you say? The landlord? Iris?"The agent looked baffled. "Yeah. You didn't know? The entire stretch of Central Street belongs to Ms. Fulton."I looked at Iris' figure in the distance. Painful memories I'd buried deep suddenly rushed to the surface.After I'd paid off her debts the second time, I'd struggled to make ends meet for a long stretch.
