Chapter 8

ผู้เขียน: Ann Tenner
Cassidy's voice shot up instantly. "You don't have any money? How could you not? Your family's rich! Just ask your parents for some! Your mom likes me well enough anyway."

"I'm saving my money up for my wedding with Whitney!" Silas exclaimed. "I can't give you any more!"

Cassidy laughed like she'd heard the funniest joke. "Are you kidding me? Whitney doesn't even want you anymore! Who are you marrying? A ghost?"

Silas' expression darkened even more. "Cassidy, watch your mouth! My business wit

  • Stole Our Future to Crown His Princess   Chapter 9

    Eventually, I heard the news from Mom. She said Cassidy filed a police report, and Silas was detained for 15 days on assault charges.After he was released, he lost his job and had to start over. But Cassidy clung to him like a ghost, following him everywhere.In the end, Silas had no choice but to sublet the house and leave Elmsworth altogether. As for where he went, no one knew, because he was afraid that if he divulged anything, Cassidy would track him down again.Cassidy, with no one left to support her, still refused to find a job. Her parents, drowning in debt, hastily found someone and married her off.Mom couldn't stop laughing when she told me this. "Talk about karma! You made the right call to leave them when you did, Whitney!"I just smiled and said nothing.…One day, I received a message from Silas. "I'm coming to meet you."He actually showed up outside my office building that afternoon. Looking at him, he must have traveled a long way. His hair was a mess, he had

    Cassidy's voice shot up instantly. "You don't have any money? How could you not? Your family's rich! Just ask your parents for some! Your mom likes me well enough anyway.""I'm saving my money up for my wedding with Whitney!" Silas exclaimed. "I can't give you any more!"Cassidy laughed like she'd heard the funniest joke. "Are you kidding me? Whitney doesn't even want you anymore! Who are you marrying? A ghost?"Silas' expression darkened even more. "Cassidy, watch your mouth! My business with Whitney is none of your concern."Cassidy raised her voice right back. "I want no part in your mess at all! I just want the money! You promised to be my knight! You can't go back on your word!"Silas rubbed his temples, frustrated. "Cassidy, why can't you learn from Whitney and stand on your own two feet?"Cassidy stared at him in disbelief. "Since when does a princess need to earn money? Isn't that your job? You promised Whitney you'd take care of me! If it weren't for you, Whitney wouldn'

    Ever since I left, Silas felt like the entire house was empty. It was only just a few pieces of clothing missing, but somehow the place felt hollow and desolate.The flowers in the living room vase had been wilted for days. In the past, I would replace them with fresh ones every other day.Silas sat on the couch, staring out at the balcony. At this time of day, I would usually be sitting there quietly reading.Regret burned in his eyes. He had asked every friend he knew, but no one had any idea where I was. He missed me so much it was driving him crazy. But I'd vanished without a trace, as if I'd never existed.He'd sent me countless messages and made countless calls from new numbers, but I never answered any of them.At first, he thought that I had left because I was just throwing a tantrum, and that I would cool off after a few days. He believed that after five years together, it would be impossible for me to just walk away so easily. But I had truly left.Just then, the doorbe

    I suddenly found it a little funny. Silas had mentioned "the three of us". That meant he still included Cassidy in his plans."No, Silas," I said. "You can go ahead and keep being her knight. I'm done chasing after you."Silas was silent for a while before slowly speaking. "Are you still angry? Because I took care of Cassidy? I'm only doing it because she twisted her ankle. There's really nothing else to it. Whitney, Cady is your best friend. Can't you be a little more considerate?""Silas, won't you try to understand where I'm coming from, then?" I asked softly. "I don't want to be caught between the two of you. Love and marriage are matters between two people, not three. Anyway, just transfer me my money, and we'll call it even."His breathing grew heavier. "Whitney, you even left the card behind. Are you really abandoning me too? We've been together for five years! You can't break up with me just because I prioritized Cassidy over you this one time—""It's not just this one tim

    I turned off my phone once I boarded the plane. Outside the window, the sky was pitch black. I put on my headphones, played some music, and slowly drifted off to sleep.After landing, I turned my phone back on to find over 20 missed calls and messages, all from an unknown number."Whitney, what do you mean by this? Who said anything about breaking up? I'm not breaking up with you!"I'll deposit the 6,000 dollars back into our wedding fund. Don't worry about it."I still need to take care of Cady tonight. I'll come back tomorrow and explain everything."I didn't send him a single reply. It was already the early hours of the next morning when I arrived in Briarwood. The dry air stung my face.I dragged my suitcase out of the airport and, following the navigation, took a cab to the area near my new workplace. Then, I left my luggage at the front desk of the company and started looking for housing nearby.As it was graduation season, vacancies were scarce. I looked at several pl

    I had even recorded a video of Silas drying my hair for me and posted it on my social media to show off how much he cared about me.Cassidy had left a comment on that post. "Come on, he's just putting on an act. You could spend 20-odd bucks at a salon, and it'd even come with a head massage!"I'd laughed and replied, "He's my personal hairstylist. No one else compares."But now, his attention was no longer reserved for me alone."My parents are in Elmsworth?" Silas' voice pulled me back to the present."Flora's sick," I said. "She's at Elmsworth General Hospital. Patrick called you, but he couldn't reach you."Silas' expression instantly turned tense. He checked his phone and saw several missed calls. "I must have missed it because I was helping Cady wash her hair. Come on, let's go to the hospital now."He reached out to take my hand, but I stepped aside and avoided him. His hand froze in midair before he awkwardly pulled it back. "You're always getting upset over nothing," h
