ACHILLES IS NOW heading towards his girlfriend’s place. It has been a month since the last time he saw her after his busy schedule. He needs to make up for the days that they were not together. He is carrying a bouquet of red roses and a bottle of champagne. Those are the things he brought because they are her favorites. Hailey just wants all the time to have an intimate date just for the both of them. 

“I shouldn’t lose track of time,” he couldn’t help but sigh deeply. “Next time, I should find a way to visit her.” 

Achilles' company is handling a big project and he’s thankful that she understands it all the time.

He cannot go to her immediately because he knows that she hates the spotlight. People recognized him in the business world, making his career line up with a celebrity’s popularity. 

“I will just order food,” he mumbled on his way. 

Achilles also doesn't know if he will have time with his girlfriend again because his schedule is full until the holiday is over. Even if he owns the company and has billions of money that he can burn if he wants, he can’t just sit back and take it easy because he knows that there are so many people watching him silently and waiting for his downfall. 

“I’m just lucky that my family has old money. I need to climb to the top without anyone questioning my ability…” Before the start of their relationship, that was his goal and she understood it.

Achilles felt light-hearted that day. He even greeted the staff he knew in the building. His girlfriend had been checked in at that hotel for quite some time now. He had been coming back and forth to the place that’s why the staff already became acquainted with him.

When he got out of the elevator, Achilles continued walking towards the room his girlfriend occupied. Since he knew the passcode because he was the one who paid the room for, he opened the door without ringing the doorbell.

Achilles' smile widened when he was greeted by the rose scent in Hailey's room. She loved that kind of smell so he also started to like it too.

Hailey is not in the living room. She was also not in the kitchen, so he continued walking towards her bedroom without making any noise so that his surprise would not spoil. When Achilles reached the door, there was a small gap which is why he slightly placed his ear to know what she was doing.

His girlfriend is a good singer. Whatever she’s doing, there’s a possibility that she will sing along with it. It’s been a long time since the last time that he heard her singing voice and this is one of the things that he looks forward to when he’s busy with his cases.

The smile on his lips slowly faded when he heard the little whimpers from Hailey as he touched the door latch…

The faint sound that he heard inside the room was gradually getting louder as the shaking of the bed became fast….

Achilles' blood felt like rising to his head. He couldn't move from where he stood. His heart was beating so fast that it felt like it would burst out of his chest. He tried to deny himself the scene that could slap him when he fully opened the door. He doesn’t want to think that he’s right. This would break him badly.

His body went cold as he opened the door wider. His eyes widened as he saw the position of his lover and her paramour.

The breaking sound of the champagne bottle created a loud noise after he accidentally dropped it on the floor.

Achilles' knees went weak when he saw the position of the two. He never expected to see his partner naked and on top of another man while they were caught in an explicit scene. If she hadn't held onto the door handle, he might have completely fallen.

Achilles' face automatically went cold the moment that his girlfriend found out that he was there. Her face seemed like she had seen a ghost when their eyes met.

Automatically, his memories of her being together flash into his mind…

They share those intimate moments on top of that bed too. They even planned their future and made so many memories just for her to just dismiss it so easily. They are happy. There’s no problem with their relationship since the last time he recalled it. That’s what he knows. That's why he’s questioning himself about what happened. 

He isn’t sure anymore...

When Hailey came to her senses, she immediately wiped the viscous liquid on her mouth, covered her body, and left hurriedly at the top of the man. 

“Achi—”

“Just continue what you were doing,” he said without giving her a chance to say his name.

“Please—”

Achilles raises his right hand to tell the woman to stop talking.

“By the way, I even made a room service so that you have the energy to continue what you were doing. It’s on me. My congratulations to both of you.”

“Achi, let me explain—”

“What would you explain?” He faced Hailey with a glimpse of anger. As much as possible, he doesn’t want his emotion to take over his reasoning but he also needs to tell her that it’s done. They are over!

“We’re just—”

“Are you just playing?” there’s a mockery of his question. “I'm excited to hear you sing but I never thought you'd use a different microphone for your mouth—”

A loud slap can be heard from her room. Achilles couldn’t even continue what he was going to say and just smirked.

“I’m sorry, Achilles. You know that… that…”

He raised his head a little bit after a big sigh just enough for him to stop getting more angry. As much as possible, he doesn’t want to say anything bad to her. They also still have good memories of when they were together. That reason is enough for him to end their relationship peacefully. 

The moment that he saw her in that position just because he had shortcomings for so many days was enough for him to end their relationship instantly. He's also not a saint to give her a second chance.

“I’m sorry…”

“Sorry for what?” 

“I’m sorry for—”

Achilles couldn’t help but look at her from head to toe with a glimpse of distastefulness. When he knows that she can't defend herself anymore, he turns his back after looking at her face one last time. 

Hailey calls his name over and over again while dressing herself up. She even tripped while in a hurry but he doesn't care. The moment that he stepped away, they were over.

Hailey knows him so much that no matter what he hears there will be nothing. He hates betrayal and lies. That’s why when she was injured by a broken bottle that she stepped on, and didn’t look back, he knows to himself that he’s really done to her…
