The Wrong One to Love Chapter 8 No Looking Back
Silence hung between us.I had nothing more to say, so I turned and walked away, with Kieran quietly following.He silently followed behind me, just as he used to when he walked me home.But now, the flutter I had once felt was completely gone....A few weeks later, the new project wrapped up successfully.My coworkers insisted I treat everyone to dinner to celebrate, so we booked a private room at a restaurant.Before long, the table was filled with food and drinks, and everyone laughed and talked over one another.Caught up in the celebration, I drank more than usual.Halfway through dinner, I stepped outside for some air and decided to settle the bill before anyone else could beat me to it.I had just taken out my card when another one appeared beside mine."Use mine."I looked up and found Kieran standing there.I had no idea how he had found me, but I didn't bother asking. Instead, I handed the server my own card. "No, thanks."His expression stiffened.Once I had p
The Wrong One to Love Chapter 7 What About You?
I was filling out paperwork for my new job when my phone rang from an unfamiliar number.The moment I answered, Kieran's furious voice came through."Alivia, what the hell is this supposed to mean? You didn't cancel the wedding, and you sent Leah down the aisle in your place?"He kept going, but I simply put the phone on speaker and continued filling out the form in front of me."Aren't you two in love with each other?" I asked. "The wedding was already paid for, so I figured I might as well give it to you. Consider it a breakup gift."For a few seconds, he said nothing. All I could hear was his heavy breathing through the phone.Then, he exploded."Alivia, how long are you going to keep this up? How many times do I have to explain things? There's nothing going on between Leah and me. We're friends. That's it. How long are you going to hold that against me?""I'm not holding anything against you, Kieran," I said, setting my pen down. "We already broke up, so don't get the wrong
The Wrong One to Love Chapter 6 The Wrong Bride
For the next week, Kieran kept his phone close at all times. Whenever it buzzed, he reached for it immediately, hoping to see Alivia's name on the screen.But she never called or texted.…Leah moved in, saying she didn't want him to be alone while he waited for Alivia to come home.At first, Kieran didn't mind the company.However, within a few days, she had made herself completely comfortable. She slept until noon, left things lying around, and expected Kieran to take care of everything."Kieran, can you go get me that strawberry oatmeal I like?" she called from the bedroom. "And run me a bath while you're at it. I want to relax."When he didn't answer, she called again. "Kieran? Did you hear me?"Kieran sat in the living room, staring at his silent phone. For some reason, her voice grated on his nerves more than usual."Can't you do any of that yourself?" He finally snapped. "I let you stay because you said you'd keep me company while I waited for Alivia. I didn't ask you t
The Wrong One to Love Chapter 5 She Meant It
"Alivia!"Kieran shoved the door open. The remains of the wedding dress still smoldered, thin trails of black smoke curling into the air, while the nearby furniture was scorched by the flames.However, Alivia was nowhere to be seen.He searched the apartment from top to bottom, checking every room before pulling out his phone to call her.The call didn't go through.He only got the same cold automated message saying, "The person you have dialed is not available. Please try later."Kieran frowned at his phone. 'Why isn't she answering? And why hasn't she followed us to the hospital like she always does?'An uneasy feeling crept into his chest. He was about to head outside and look for her when something beside the burned remains of the wedding dress caught his eye.There was blood on the floor.Several of Alivia's belongings lay scattered nearby, and his stomach sank at the sight. Only then did it occur to him that she might have been seriously injured in the fire.'Why didn't
The Wrong One to Love Chapter 4 He Never Looked Back
For a while, neither of us spoke. Panic flickered across Kieran's face before he finally broke the silence."Alivia, this isn't what you think. Leah was having trouble getting to and from work, so I bought her this place. Besides, whenever we're in the area, we can stay here too."He said it like it was perfectly reasonable, as if there was nothing wrong with spending our money on an apartment for another woman without even telling me.Except half the money he'd used was mine—money I'd worked so hard to save.My whole body started trembling. I shoved past him and walked inside, only to stop cold when I saw the place.There were two of everything: two mugs by the sink, two pairs of slippers by the door, two toothbrushes in the bathroom. Worse, none of it looked new. Everything had clearly been used.This wasn't just some apartment Kieran had bought for Leah. It felt like a home they shared.Suddenly, all those late nights at the office made sense. So, this was where he'd really b
The Wrong One to Love Chapter 3 The Surprise
Kieran froze, disbelief flashing across his face.A second later, he let out a cold laugh. "Wow. Since when did you start playing these stupid mind games?"He looked at me like I was being ridiculous. "Alivia, you're not eighteen anymore. We're practically married. Aren't you a little old to be threatening me with a breakup every time you get upset?"He hesitated, then added, "Leah's sensitive. You can say this stuff to me, and I'll pretend I never heard it. But don't drag her into it."For a moment, I wanted to ask why Leah's feelings always seemed to matter more than mine when I was the one he was supposed to marry.However, there was no point anymore, so I kept quiet.Kieran seemed to take my silence as surrender. His voice softened. "I've got something to take care of at work tonight. Get some sleep."He didn't come home that night.A few hours later, Leah posted an Instagram Story visible only to me.In the video, she wore a tiny slip dress and posed for the camera in way
