    "Why are you so impulsive?" Teresa clutched her arm theatrically, feigning grievance. "I was trying to help you, and this is what I get in return?"I almost cracked a smile as I watched her dramatic little act. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed Yvonne had made a move. Hence, I immediately eyed her warily. Yvonne flashed me a bitter smile and roughly wiped at her tearful eyes. Her pride had already reached its limit, and her status and achievements over the years wouldn't allow her to lower herself any further. Yvonne exhaled deeply, her expression settling back into its usual aloofness. "I'll ask you one last time, Mason. Are you coming back with me or not?"My forehead creased, and I was about to part my lips when Oliver appeared out of nowhere and threw his arms around her. "This bastard doesn't deserve you, Vonne! You still have me. Let's go home, okay?" With that, he tried to yank her back.In an instant, Yvonne broke free and slapped him hard across the face. She s

    Mason's POVMemories of those days flooded back, and I tugged at the corner of my lips. I refused to let the waterworks start and slowly spat out, "You told me to wait for you for two months. On the 59th day, I was so happy that I couldn't sleep. Yet, the following day, I waited until dark, and you never showed up. "I was terrified. I kept reassuring myself that something must've come up, that you'd been held up, and you'd come pick me up the next day. However, I waited one day, then another, and another, and you never came. "I don't even know which day it was when I suddenly broke down. I screamed and shouted like a madman until they finally pinned me to the ground. My nails were torn back and bleeding from struggling. Everyone looked at me with pity because I kept telling them my fiancee was coming to pick me up soon!"A derisive smile graced my lips as I continued, "From that moment on, I became the laughingstock of the prison. Everyone knew I was the lunatic who had been aban

    Mason's POVI tore my gaze away and chuckled. "I'm four years your senior, Teresa. You used to be so polite to me when you were little. Why are you being so blunt now?"Her face flushed crimson, and she casually brushed back the damp hair clinging to her forehead. "Me? Polite to you? Don't flatter yourself!" she muttered under her breath.I couldn't be bothered to waste my breath on her, so I headed outside. Noticing that I had paid her no mind the entire time, Yvonne marched toward me with a grim face.Yvonne seized me and dragged me outside. Teresa quickly caught up with us and shoved her away. "What do you think you're doing?"Yvonne's gaze was dark and intense, as if a storm was brewing. Even though Teresa was younger, she was in no way intimidated, matching Yvonne's imposing presence. I was afraid a fight would break out, so I immediately separated the two of them. "Head home without me, Tessa."Teresa didn't budge. Her eyes were still locked on Yvonne with hostility.I p

    Third-Person POVOliver was indignant. For the past six years, he had been showered with affection. He would rather die than go back to that godforsaken backwater. "Please look at me, Vonne. If you want to get married, I'll marry you!" Impatience flashed across Yvonne's face. "I only see you as my younger brother. I've made myself crystal clear." But was that truly the case? Deep down, she knew better.Yvonne and Oliver were both from humble beginnings, having witnessed each other's most embarrassing and wretched moments. Years had passed, and she now had more wealth than she could spend in three lifetimes. Yet, the moment she saw Oliver, she was instantly transported back to the insecure, down-and-out woman she had once been. Yvonne could make it up to him and take care of him, as if she was making amends to the impoverished version of herself from the past. However, she couldn't marry him. She wanted to marry Mason. That decision had never changed. However, he had alway

After Juliette knocked on the door and walked in, Yvonne sprang to her feet and strode out of her office. Oliver was about to tell her something, but the moment he opened his mouth, Yvonne walked straight past him as if something incredibly urgent had come up. He froze for a moment, and his expression hardened before he spun around and followed her into the car. Yvonne paid him no mind and slammed her foot on the gas pedal. No matter how Oliver tried to strike up a conversation, she remained silent. He bit down hard on his lip. He was so furious that the veins on his forehead bulged. The half-hour drive was cut in half. As soon as she got out of the car, she

    "Don't cry. I'll buy you another one. Oliver didn't do it on purpose." Yvonne gently stroked my head to comfort me, but every word she said was really an excuse for Oliver. My whole body shook like a leaf as I clutched the shattered bracelet. Blood oozed out of my palm and dripped onto the floor, blooming into glaring crimson flowers. Yvonne's pupils contracted, and she immediately pried my hand open. Her expression darkened as she took in my bloodied, mangled palm, and she was about to snap at me when everything went black, and I fainted. …I slept particularly fitfully that night. When I woke up, my head was pounding, and my throat felt as though it had been scraped raw. Thus, I dragged my heavy body outside to get some water. As soon as I reached the corner, I spotted a couple at the end of the dimly lit hallway. Oliver's voice sounded pitiful, as if he still hadn't recovered from the earlier confrontation. "If I crash here, will Mason be upset?" "I call the shots in
