I sneered and retorted, “If I’d fallen and died, would you have revived me?”

Aspen frowned. “Ted, why are you being so mean?”

“You abandoned me, and you say I’m the one being mean?”

I wanted to leave.

They both disgusted me.

Liam suddenly stopped me. He grabbed me, but I flung his hand away. “Don’t touch me!”

He stumbled down the stairs.

Aspen was shocked. She pushed me away and hugged Liam. She asked in concern, “Are you alright?”

Liam shook his head with tears in his eyes.

    Aspen kept staring at me, and I was starting to feel uncomfortable.On the fifth day, I approached her. I handed her a wedding invitation and said indifferently, “You’re welcome to attend my wedding in three days.”She looked up at me in disbelief. Her eyes gradually brightened.“I’ve looked into it. You don’t have a girlfriend.”“I do. Joy’s Dan’s doctor. She’s been overseas on an assignment and just returned yesterday.“We started planning our wedding a month ago. I’ve just been waiting for her to come back.” As soon as I finished speaking, Joy Brown walked into the bakery.Compared to Aspen’s commanding presence, Joy seemed much gentler, yet there was a quiet firmness about her.She walked over, linked her arm through mine, and rested her head against my chest.After sizing Aspen up, she frowned and said disdainfully, “Ted, is this the woman who left you blind for five years? Want me to gouge her eyes out for you?”I laughed. “That’s illegal.”“As long as it makes you

    Her love was selfish and controlling. She could not stop herself from cheating on me, but she claimed that she was deeply in love with me. It was all a joke to her.“Please don’t say that you hurt me because you love me. You disgust me!” I stared at her in revulsion. She could not stand my gaze. Reaching out, she tried to cover my eyes with her hand. Her voice trembled as though she were about to cry. “Ted, please, I’m begging you. Don’t look at me like that.”She had always been used to the admiration and dependency in my eyes. She could not bear seeing the coldness in them now.I flung her hand away. “Get away from me!”I did not want to waste any more time on her and asked a staff member to throw her out. At night, when I reached home, I saw a lot of supplements before my door. I heard Dan’s raging voice. “Get out! I don’t need your pity. Ted and I are living a much better life now.”“I know I’ve done a lot of things wrong. I’ve learned from my mistakes.“Dan, the fa

    I settled into my new city for a month and grew to love the slow-paced life in the place. I found the best orthopedist for Dan, and he underwent reconstructive surgery. The doctor said that although Dan would not be able to run fast, there was no reason he could not walk normally again.After regaining my vision after five years of blindness, I spent a lot of time outside after working hours. I wanted to see the world. But one day, Aspen’s friend sent me a text. [Ted, it’s been so long. That’s enough. Aspen’s looking for you.][She loves you so much. How can you be this cruel?]I sent a reply.[When she lied to me about my eye condition, wasn’t that cruel enough for you?]Perhaps my blunt response had caught her off guard. No more messages came through, so I blocked the number.The next morning, I went to the bakery. I had just finished making a strawberry cake when I heard a familiar voice. “Can I buy this cake?”I paused and looked up to see Aspen standing next to

    “What happened after that?”“Ted waved a knife around and made the reporters leave the premises.”Dr. Johnson’s words terrified Aspen. She asked coldly, “He can’t see! How could you let him hold a knife? What if he had hurt himself?”Dr. Johnson looked at her in confusion. “Are you saying Mr. Smith can’t see? That’s impossible! He signed all the forms, and he definitely could read them. I don’t think he was blind.”Aspen’s eyes widened in shock. A shiver ran down her spine.“He… can see?”Dr. Johnson nodded. Aspen left the hospital in a daze. She looked into the incident at the hospital a few days ago. There were videos online, but she had not watched them. When she finally watched the videos, she felt frantic. Then, she looked into my medical records. The Reid family was very powerful, and I had not deliberately kept my medical records private, so it was easy for Aspen to find my medical history.Liam noticed that Aspen had not come to see him for the past few days,

    “I’m sorry. The number you dialed could not be reached.”Aspen frowned. She ended the call and sent me a text. [Are you still mad at me? Don’t be so petty! The incident’s over. Just reply.]She realized that the text had not gone through either.Aspen’s expression turned icy. Liam noticed her expression and could not help but ask, “What’s wrong?”“Ted has blocked me.”Liam cocked an eyebrow. “I bet he’s still throwing a tantrum. Ever since he became blind, he’s been acting out.“Just let him cool down for now. He can’t live without you, after all.”Liam leaned against Aspen and playfully pinched her earlobe. She knew Liam was right, but she still felt uneasy. She sent a few more texts.[Ted, this is very immature of you. I’m not going to play along any longer.][I’m giving you two hours to unblock me. Otherwise, let’s just break up.]After that, she tossed her phone aside in annoyance.Immediately after, she grabbed Liam’s hand. “Enough. I’m not in the mood today.”

    The surgery lasted for three hours, and they issued two critical condition notices throughout. I signed with a trembling hand. Finally, Dan ended up in the ICU. If he managed to pull through that night, he would be able to survive. I kept praying. The news continued to go viral. Some reporters even appeared at the hospital.“Mr. Smith, did Dan attempt suicide because of guilt?”“Since he dared to attempt suicide, why didn’t he apologize to the victim?”“The victim was seriously hurt. How can he just take his life that easily to escape from the consequences?” I was furious with their accusations. I roared, “Get out of here!” My eyes were bloodshot as I glared at them. “If anything happens to Dan, I’ll make sure all of you who falsely accused him pay for it!“Do you want to risk it?”I took out the knife Dan used to slash his wrist and waved it before the reporters. “You’re crazy!” “Both of you are despicable!”The reporters were terrified. They snapped photos b
