Chapter 7 A Slow Realization

Author: Ayim
After being fired, Matthew accused Eloise online of being a playgirl who abandoned him.

It dealt a devastating blow to Eloise, who had only just stepped into the role of General Manager.

She did not respond to it.

Right now, that haggard woman was standing in front of me.

She shook her head. "No

    After the incident, Eloise had to return to the city to deal with the scandal surrounding her.The board of directors held her accountable for the plummeting stock price and removed her from her position. None of those storms affected me. I enjoyed a leisurely life.Mom and I moved to a new place where Eloise could not find us.…To my surprise, six months later, Matthew reached out to me through the media.After being fired, he had fallen into a spiral of despair. He was targeted by a romance scam and lost all his savings.Having fallen from grace, he had no choice but to embrace his old life.When he found me, I did not expect to see a timid, cautious man who apologized profusely. He confessed, "Andrew, there's something I've never told you. My first love only broke up with me because I demanded that she treat me as nicely as Eloise had treated you. She couldn't bear it, so she cheated on me. "To be honest, I was jealous whenever I saw how loving the two of you were. I bla

  • Turns Out She Was Never Mine   Chapter 8 Pulling a Publicity Stunt

    I watched as the crowd quickly circled us. Only then did I realise she had staged this entire show to get rid of the scandal.She slowly took my hand between hers. Her expression was unbelievably earnest, as though she was the most devoted woman in the world."Andrew, the only way to fix this is to announce our relationship to the world. From nobody to General Manager, you are the man who has stayed by my side. You're the only husband I want, Andrew. "Matthew is neither my boyfriend nor husband. It was a contract marriage between us. Once we're home, we'll have a proper wedding. My name will be next to yours on the marriage certificate, and my annual bonus will all go to you."I looked at her before shifting my gaze to the cameras surrounding us.The old Eloise would never bother with an explanation.I could not have imagined her pulling a publicity stunt either, yet she now took the matter into her own hands.Once this video went viral, her company's image would surely suffer

"No, it's the longest time we've been apart. Back then, you never stayed for more than two months when you were visiting your parents."I crossed my arms and studied her face.She could hardly stand on her feet after days of sleeplessness."Allow me to correct you. From the day I left, I planned for it to last forever. You should go home. After all, you fought so hard for the position. It would be a shame if you lost it."Her lips curved into a sorrowful smile."I deserve the consequences of m

  • Turns Out She Was Never Mine   Chapter 6 Worst in Man's Nature

    Eloise had always been straightforward.Before, Matthew rejoiced in hearing her snap at Andrew.Therefore, being the recipient of her wrath today wounded his pride.He cautiously asked, "Did I say something wrong, Eloise? I just want to remind you that the meeting later is crucial to your promotion. Did Andrew tell you that I overstepped? You can tell him that I'll move out once you're promoted."She pinched the bridge of her nose, finding him no different from a buzzing fly. "There's no need to wait for the promotion. You'll move out of my place now. I reckon you don't need my explanation, right?"And that was Eloise. She moved fast, skipped the process, and went straight to the conclusion.Matthew had prepared sweet words and gentle flattery to lower her guard, but against Andrew's departure, he stood no chance. "Eloise, I—"She hung up on him, not giving him the chance to finish.She entered the office group chat. As always, Matthew was seeking attention again.She edited

    Eloise shoved the new tenant aside and barged into the room.Only then did she suddenly realise that she actually had time and patience for Andrew.She knew she had come to the right place.One time when she visited, she helped Cassandra drive the nail into the wall.Ten wall calendars had been hung there over ten years.Andrew always circled Valentine's Day and their birthday.Whenever she asked, he would scratch his head bashfully and answer, "I want us to get married on either of these dates."She immediately recognized the hints, but the thought of going through a tedious ceremony and spending time with a crowd of relatives whose names she could not even remember made her heart sink.The next time he brought up marriage again, the burden weighed heavier in her chest, and she felt like he was pressuring her into marriage.The refrigerator standing in the living room was one she had bought for Cassandra.It was covered with fridge magnets she and Andrew brought back from th

    Just as I boarded the train home, hoping to start a new life, the security officer at the station stopped me."I'm sorry, Mr. Reed. You're currently the main suspect in a burglary case. You're not allowed to leave the city for the time being."I stared at her in bewilderment. "You must've made a mistake."She replied sternly, "That's for the police to decide."The officer waiting behind her handcuffed me and escorted me to the police station.Eloise and Matthew were already waiting there with a private settlement agreement.…After a series of mishaps, Eloise brought me home. She forced me to wait at the dining table before she went into the kitchen to prepare a meal for me.Matthew sat across from me.As soon as the cooker hood buzzed in the kitchen, a smug grin split across his face."Andrew, if you know better, you should break up with Eloise now."In the past, I naively believed him when he claimed that he had lost interest in pursuing a new relationship after his ex-gir
