Running From Betrayal: Goodbye to You Chapter 9
The bodyguards behind me dragged Susan to the roadside with a knowing look from me. As my car passed her, it splashed a puddle of filthy water, soaking her face.Susan's expression was vacant. Without hesitation, she ran straight into an oncoming car.It was an instant death.A month later, Hans' company failed to go public.It wasn't my doing. But I didn't care whatever the reason was either.After his company's IPO failure, Hans sought me out. He said he finally remembered that Susan's birthday had fallen on my mother's death anniversary. He apologized for everything he had done.He even said that if I would forgive him, he'd accompany me to my mother's grave one more time.I declined with a smile.After a long silence, he murmured to himself, "How could I forget this year when I've always remembered before?"I knew why, but I didn't answer him.He never realized it himself. Though he claimed to love me and insisted everything he did was for me, he had been captivated by th

I started walking toward my car when Hans grabbed me by the arm."You knew? Why didn't you tell me? I can explain." Hans thought I hadn't noticed the precious and intricate gifts he had given to Susan. His brow furrowed deeply, and a trace of guilt flashed through his eyes."But I don't need an explanation," I said. I truly didn't.He could give whatever he wanted to whomever he pleased.The money Susan took from the Sullivan family and the luxury items Hans gifted her would eventually find their way into my hands. I didn't mind letting her hold onto them for a little while longer.Susan, intent on provoking me, quickly caught up and pulled me into a hug despite my resistance."Yarmilla, you're such a failure! Your mother lost to me, and now you've lost to me too. Just you wait. I'll marry Hans soon, and when I send out the invitations, I'll be sure to save one for you."Her face wore a smile, but the words spilling from her lips were venomous, each syllable dripping with malice

I looked at Hans. In my mind, his face seemed to overlap with Charlie's.In the end, I felt so disgusted that I wanted to vomit. I couldn't stand the sight of him anymore.Despite knowing I wasn't strong enough to resist him, I still stubbornly pushed him away."Are you making a fuss because you're jealous? Or is it because you misunderstood my relationship with her?"Yarmilla, I'll explain this only once! I admit Susan is a gorgeous and amazing woman. However, I don't like her. You're the one I've always been in love with."The reason I took you to Susan's birthday party was all for you! I didn't want you to keep being at odds with her. I wanted you to let go of the past and live happily like every other woman!"I had always found Hans' logic incomprehensible. Even when I pleaded so directly, he still managed to misunderstand.I found his explanation utterly ridiculous."If your mother was killed by your stepmother, could you still coexist peacefully with your stepmother?"If

"It seems you knew where I was all this time; you just didn't want to come and talk to me face-to-face," I said.It was already past midnight when Hans showed up.I was wearing a pink nightgown from before I got married, my dark hair cascading down my back. Yawning, I stepped aside to let him in."Yarmilla, enough of this nonsense!" Hans was still in his work suit. He stared straight at me as he grabbed my wrist in frustration, his expression full of impatience."I gave you time, but you refused to cooperate. If you won't agree to the divorce, then I'll have no choice but to sue you," I warned him. Having experienced Hans's strength before, I knew resisting him would be futile.So, I didn't struggle. I let him hold my wrist as a cool and detached smile played on my lips."Are you really asking for a divorce over something so trivial?"Hans couldn't wrap his head around it. All he did was team up with Susan to trick me into attending her birthday party. He only dragged me by the

When I saw the photo from Susan, I was shopping for groceries with Grandma at the supermarket."Just a picture of yourself? No shots of you together? Nothing risqué?" I replied calmly, my tone devoid of any emotion.Afraid that she would leave a trail by replying in text, Susan immediately called me instead. "Your heart must be bleeding right now. Are you going to keep pretending like you don't care? Yarmilla, the pain in your expression when you flipped that table—it was so much more genuine!""Are you finally dropping the act? So this is your true self. After years of watching you put on that show, I almost forgot what your disgusting, conniving face really looks like!"I listened to Susan snicker on the other end of the line. Ever since she married Dad, she had been playing the dutiful stepmother full of fake concern and forced care.I'd been sick of it for ages."You've always wanted your dad and me to get a divorce, haven't you? Well, congratulations. Your wish is coming tru

I hung up the phone with a cold smirk.The moment I left Susan's birthday party, I immediately dumped all the incriminating evidence I'd gathered into Charlie's email.Now, I was simply waiting to enjoy the spectacle of them turning on each other like rabid dogs.As for Hans? We could keep things civil if he agreed to the divorce. If not, I'd file for divorce. I would only gain more in court."Mr. Luther, why didn't you bring Mrs. Luther today? It's unlike you to attend an event like this alone."Hans had just taken a seat when someone noticed Yarmilla's absence and quickly teased him.Everyone in their circle knew that Hans and Yarmilla were the model couple. Whenever an event allowed for a plus-one, Yarmilla was always by Hans' side."Next time," Hans replied, his expression somewhat grim.It had been over a week since Yarmilla moved out. Throughout that time, no matter how Hans tried to reach her, her only response was, "Have you signed the divorce papers?"It frustrated hi
