Chapter 6

작가: Frosted Crane Call
Outside the window, the city lights had just turned on.

I wrapped my coat tighter around myself as I looked down at the night scenery that this city had to offer. I had renovated this apartment only because Alissa had a fondness for these massive floor-to-ceiling windows.

I had genuinely wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. But it was just such a pity.

Behind me, the muffled murmurs between my attorney and assistant blended with the rustle of flipping pages.

After a while, they appr

  • Rolling the Dice on My Cheating Fiancée   Chapter 9

    The very last time I saw Alissa and Rhys was at a charity dinner. That was the very first time—since the night at the bar—when I stepped out in public.The moment I stepped into the hall, everyone turned their attention toward me. There were gazes of sympathy, curiosity, scrutiny, and admiration.I took in everyone's stares with complete composure, keeping my back straight the entire time. Then, Alissa practically tore through the crowd, rushing straight up to me. She had gotten even thinner, her bloodshot eyes filled with immense exhaustion."Stan… Can we just have a chat? I'm sorry. I really am. Rhys and I have signed our divorce papers. That day was just a ridiculous joke…"I stared at her calmly, the same way I would if she were a stranger. "I believe I have been very clear in our last conversation. Also, there's no need for you to update me about your marriage status with Mr. Pritchard."Instantly, her face paled. There was a tremor in her lips, and she was completely spe

    All color had drained from Alissa's face. She stammered, unable to say a word."Each time you forgot our plans and cast me to the periphery because of him, or when you stood by while he taunted and humiliated my feelings, you were perfectly sober. "When you allowed him to hold you and put his arms around your waist, and when you said he was your husband for the night, you knew exactly what you were doing too."When you sided with him as he forced me to remove the watch my grandfather left for me, and when you watched on as all that red wine was spilled all over it… You were more sober than you had ever been in your life!"Although I hadn't raised my voice, Alissa suddenly lowered her head and buried her hands in her hair. She let out a whimper like a trapped animal. "Stop talking, Stan… Please… Just stop…" Her shoulders shook violently, as if she were about to burst into tears. "I was wrong… I'm the most horrible person in the world. I didn't know… I didn't know I did so man

  • Rolling the Dice on My Cheating Fiancée   Chapter 7

    Alissa spent a few consecutive days trying to get in touch with me. After realizing that she couldn't reach me over calls or text messages, she began to camp out at the bottom of my apartment all day and night.Through my apartment's entrance video intercom, I could clearly see her standing in the freezing wind. Her hair, usually meticulously styled by professionals, was now disheveled. Her expensive dress was also now a wrinkled mess. She made a few attempts to force her way into the building, but she was thrown out by the security guards downstairs every time.It went on like this until the building management finally called me, sounding rather apologetic."Mr. Fisher, she… she simply refuses to leave. There's really nothing else we can do."I let out a sigh. In the end, I relented and agreed to meet with her. After all, I had to put an end to this drama personally.I wrapped my coat around me and met with Alissa at the apartment lobby. Though only a few days had passed, she h

"Mr. Fisher, the preliminary ownership change for The Stalissa, the yacht under Ms. Coleman's name, the three commercial properties on the east side of the city, and five percent of Coleman Group's floating stock have been completed."Mr. Pritchard's assets are also being inventoried as we speak. Everything should be fully settled by this afternoon." I hummed an acknowledgement and didn't look back. The Stalissa once symbolized a sweet romance. But now, the yacht, the assets that

    Lying under the dice cup were not just two dice, but three. There were two sixes in bright red dots, just like the maximum roll that Alissa achieved earlier. But there was another die, one showing a singular, bright red dot. They claimed victory over me with this singular dot earlier. At this moment, I had used this singular dot back on them. The three dice came to a total of 13."Th-Three dice?"Winifred was the first to exclaim in shock, her eyes almost popping out of her sockets. "H-How could there be three dice in the dice cup?"I let out an involuntary scoff. As long as the technique and force were right, I could break a die in two with much ease. That was how I ended up with this roll that added up to 13 points. At this moment, my eyes were bright and clear. Even though my cheeks were still flushed, I behaved exactly like a sober man would."I rolled a total of 13. A bet is a bet. You both have lost." Since the moment I sat down here, I never once considered turning

  • Rolling the Dice on My Cheating Fiancée   Chapter 4

    The moment the floodgates of gambling were flung open, they were nearly impossible to close.Soon enough, the stakes in the next few games evolved into more tangible assets. At times, I lost some of my relatively insignificant shares or minor investments. At other times, I was lucky enough to win some of them back.I behaved exactly like a typical gambler who was losing his mind. When I lost, all color drained from my face, and when I won, I was wildly ecstatic. The thrill of alcohol and gambling games made me appear somewhat out of control.On a few occasions, Alissa attempted to stop me. However, she was always held back. The frown on her face deepened. I couldn't help but laugh bitterly at myself. To Alissa, I was probably just acting out recklessly. Perhaps she was waiting for me to return to her side as I always did, ready to be at her beck and call.The dice-rolling game seemed to have become a miniature battlefield. When I pulled off yet another insanely-close win, seizing
