The Hundredth Time She Ghosted Chapter 10
Life was loud and full with everyone under one roof.Until one afternoon, someone showed up who shouldn't have."Hedley, someone's here to see you," Rainee said suddenly."Who?""You'll see." She gave me that knowing smile.I followed her out—and froze.Sonia."Hedley!" She rushed over, eyes all tangled up. "I finally found you!"It'd been so long I'd almost erased her from memory.Now, seeing her again just made my stomach turn.Before I could say a word, Faye stepped between us, sharp. "Who are you?""I'm Sonia," she said, chin up. "Hedley's girlfriend."Faye glanced at me."She's nobody," I said, voice flat. "Ignore her."Then to Sonia—cold, final. "We're done. Leave.""Hedley, I was wrong," she said, trembling soft. "I've spent five years thinking about you. Just give me one more chance. I'll fix everything.""Sonia Quindt, haven't you had enough?" I snapped. "It's over. Stop haunting me.""Hedley, I love you!" she shouted. "I can't watch you with someone else. You

I handed her the bin, not even glancing at it."Alright," she said, not asking a thing.I started settling in.With Rainee's help, I got a job, made a few friends. Life started lining up again.***At a company dinner, I met Faye Fitzroy.Elegant. Confident. The kind of woman who doesn't need to prove anything.After dinner, she offered me a ride."Hedley, you're from Borevia City?" she asked, eyes on the road."Yeah. How'd you know?""Your accent." She smiled. "I'm from Borevia too.""Nice to meet you, Faye." I kept it polite—no need to get close."It's rare to meet someone from home out here. Feels like fate," she said softly. "If you ever need anything, just ask.""Thanks." Warmth crept in. In a foreign place, that small connection meant something.We started hanging out—meals, movies, long walks.I didn't label it. Didn't want to.But over time, I saw it—she wasn't just beautiful. She was calm. Real.Being around her felt easy.Then one night—"Hedley, be my boyf

I spent a month drifting. Cut off everyone. Everything.Then I booked a flight to Francia—time to face the family.The second the plane touched down, I could breathe again.Cold air. Sharp. Fresh.Dragging my suitcase through the crowd, I spotted her fast—Rainee. My sister."Hedley!" she yelled, thrilled, and pulled me in."Rainee." I hugged her back, throat tight."You're finally home. Come on." She squeezed my shoulder, eyes warm.Rainee kept talking on the drive—parents, Carmoria, random stuff.I threw in a few half-dead replies. My head was still stuck in the wreck I'd left."By the way, after you left, Sonia caused quite a scene."That name hit like static."Sonia?" I frowned. Of course. The last name I wanted to hear."She's been looking for you everywhere. Even made the news. Apparently, she camped at the County Clerk's Office every day to propose—said she'd keep waiting till you came back." Rainee laughed. "Lasted a month before giving up."I let out a cold laugh.

Pierre showed up at the County Clerk's Office in a spotless white suit—looking every bit the groom."Sonia, I came for you," he said, voice soft, too gentle.He handed her a slip of paper: the marriage license form."I heard you've been waiting here all day. I know you're hurting. If you want, we can get our license right now."He looked at her, full of hope.She looked past him—empty, cold."Get lost."Pierre froze.He hadn't seen that coming.He thought Hedley disappearing made him the winner.Yeah, no.He just stared, confused—how Hedley, the guy he wrote off, still owned her heart."Sonia, why are you doing this? I like you. I'd do anything. Am I still not better than Hedley Hart?" His voice cracked.Her tone cut sharp. "Get lost. I'll say it again—get lost."She shoved him aside and walked off.Pierre just stood there, stunned.Tears burned his eyes.That was it. Over.Cameras caught everything.By the time she was gone, the clip was already online.[What's goi

"Yesterday. Finished the paperwork, dipped.""Seriously? Why'd he bail like that?""You don't know? Ms. Quindt went to propose at the County Clerk's Office today and got ghosted!""What?! No way!""Swear. It's all over the news. Borevia City's eating it up! And guess who she was proposing to? Hedley.""This is insane. Is that even true?"Rumors caught fire fast.Hedley's exit plus Sonia's public humiliation became the office's favorite drama.Everyone replayed old moments like detectives.Little things suddenly looked like clues."Thinking about it now, the way Hedley treated her... kinda tragic.""Yeah. He did everything for her. Stayed late just to keep her company.""Too bad she went for Pierre instead."People loved a scandal. And this one had it all—Sonia the heartbreaker, Hedley the victim.***Sonia lost it.She called Hedley nonstop, but he'd already killed his phone.Didn't stop her, though.She hit up every employee, every contact—pulled every string she cou

As the plane took off, I finally exhaled—like something heavy had snapped loose inside me.Phone on airplane mode. Eyes shut. Real sleep, at last.Sleep I'd been chasing for years.Soft music played in my ears, and for once, the past felt far away."Hedley Hart, you're finally free," I whispered, voice shaking.For years, I'd lived in her orbit.Loved her so hard I disappeared.Even after ninety-nine rejections, I never thought about quitting.I really thought the hundredth would be it.Thought if I just loved her hard enough, we'd finally make it to the altar.To her, my love was a joke.A game she played to see how far I'd crawl before I broke.She fed her ego on my devotion, but never once cared.I was just another option—a backup she could drop anytime.Everything I gave—every second, every bit of love—turned out to be worthless.So I left.Her. Quindt Corp. Carmoria.When the plane landed, I turned my phone back on.Messages poured in—all about Sonia.Of cours
