Chapter 8

Author: Starlet
Connor dodged the glass, his eyes flashing with fury. But soon, he put on an appeasing expression and said, "Don't be mad, Natasha. I just don't want to see you like this…"

"I hate all of you!" Natasha jerked around for a bit before abruptly pulling out a small pair of scissors from her bag and pointing them at her wrist. "If you don't come back to me, Simon, I'll kill myself right in front of you!"

Following a tense silence, I swiftly dashed forward and grabbed the scissors from her. "You nee

    "It's been a while, Simon," Natasha said with a smile, though she sounded a bit stiff. "I didn't think I'd run into you here.""Ms. Doyle." I nodded in greeting. "It has been quite a while."After an awkward silence, Natasha suddenly said, "Connor and I are getting married next month. Would you like to attend our wedding?"There was a hint of provocation in her tone, as if she were waiting to see the regret in my eyes."Congratulations," I said earnestly. "However, I'm afraid we won't be able to attend the ceremony.""Why not?" she questioned. "Is it too much for you to see how happy we are together?"Chuckling, Alice said, "No, Ms. Doyle. It's simply because we'd probably be too busy with our prenatal checkups at the hospital during that time. The doctor said our baby seems healthy so far, but it's still best to have regular checkups."As she spoke, she rested a hand on her belly, her face glowing with happiness.Natasha froze. Shock and disbelief flashed through her eyes."A

Natasha jerked around for a bit before abruptly pulling out a small pair of scissors from her bag and pointing them at her wrist. "If you don't come back to me, Simon, I'll kill myself right in front of you!"Following a tense silence, I swiftly dashed forward and grabbed the scissors from her. "You need to calm down, Natasha!""Give it back!" she screamed. "You can't treat me like this, Simon!"Connor stood to the side, his expression constantly shifting. His eyes were full of jealousy and hatred when he looked at me, but there was an obsessive look in them when he gazed at Natasha."Leave with me, Natasha," he said softly. "Stop humiliating yourself.""I don't need your pity!" Natasha pushed him away. "Tell me the truth, Simon. Do you really not feel even the slightest hint of love for m

    Natasha looked even more haggard now. Her eyes were bloodshot, but she forcefully put on a haughty demeanor anyway."You've finally agreed to see me," she said as she looked around the office. "Your new company looks pretty good. It looks like you're doing quite well even without me.""Get to the point," I said while gesturing for her to sit. "I have a meeting to attend."Instead of sitting down, she walked over to the window. Standing there with her back toward me, she asked, "Have you really made up your mind? You're choosing to be with that woman?""Her name is Alice, and she's my wife," I reminded Natasha. "I have indeed made my choice."Natasha spun around, tears glinting in her eyes. "We were together for seven years! How can you move on from our relationship just like that?""The cracks in our relationship appeared long ago," I calmly replied. "You know that very well.""I admit I made a mistake," Natasha said, her tone softening. "But I can change. Just give me a chance,

    "Just let me borrow it for a few days. I'll return it to you as soon as the showcase ends," Natasha had pleaded back then. "This showcase is really important to me."I hadn't even paused for a second before I lent the emerald pendant to her."Be careful," I reminded her. "That was the only thing my maternal grandpa left to me.""Don't worry. I'll cherish it as much as I cherish my own eyes," she swore confidently.The emerald pendant never did return to my hands.Later, I found out she had given it to Connor. Not long after that, he claimed the emerald pendant had fallen by accident during the showcase and shattered into pieces."It really was just an accident," he said innocently. "I didn't expect the display stand to be that wobbly."That night, Natasha came to me in tears and apologized."I'm sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen," she sobbed. "I shouldn't have lent it to Connor."Seeing how upset she was made my heart ache. I quickly assured her that it was fine."Don't

    "Just a friend?" I repeated. "Why do you need to spend the night in a hotel room with your friend? Why would friends leave those photos and videos on the computer that was supposed to be a gift to me?"Her face went pale. She had no answer.I continued, "You know, from the moment you let those security guards beat me up at the studio the other day, I decided it was over between us.""I was wrong, Simon," Natasha choked out. "I'll end things with Connor. Let's start over, okay? I can give up on the studio and everything else, too. I just want you back…"I simply stared at her impassively. "It's too late. I'm married. Please leave and don't bother us again. I've given you far too many chances, but you've never appreciated them. Now that I've started a new life for myself, I hope you can move on and take care of yourself, too."Alice gently squeezed my hand and gave me a reassuring look.Natasha stared at our joined hands. The last flicker of hope in her eyes finally died out."I'v

    "You're the investor?" Connor's face went pale, his voice shaky.Natasha stared at me as if she'd just seen a ghost. "Simon… all of the funding and production support… came from you?"Just as I was about to answer, an excruciating pain washed over me. My vision turned dark, and I blacked out.When I regained consciousness, the sharp smell of disinfectant hit me. I realized I was in a hospital."You're finally awake!" Natasha clutched my hand, her eyes red. "I'm sorry… I didn't know…"Her apology sounded so hollow to me.The beating and the humiliation had wiped out the love I'd felt for her throughout the last seven years."Let's break up," I said as I pulled my hand away."No!" Natasha panicked. "I know I was wrong. Give me a chance…"Ignoring her pleas, I got out of the hospital bed and approached the nurse's station. "I want to be discharged from the hospital."Natasha ran after me and grabbed the edge of my shirt. "You can't just leave like this. We've been together for s
