Lahat ng Kabanata ng An Unwanted Love: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 16

The album was filled with photos of us, going from strangers to lovers.It documented everything that had happened since we started dating.On the last page, written in his strong, bold handwriting, were four words."Jessica, I love you."Monica caught a glimpse and immediately panicked. "Hey, don't tell me you're moved by this?"I shut the album and tossed it into the trash."Why would I be? If anything, feeling moved would only make a joke out of all the effort I put into leaving."She sighed in relief. "Well, there's something you might be interested in."That was when I learned from her what happened to Ryleigh.Apparently, it had blown up on domestic news.She was caught cheating with someone else's boyfriend, and the girlfriend beat Ryleigh up on the spot.Ryleigh then tried to clear her name through live streaming, only for people to dig up even more dirt on her.It turned out, she was a repeat offender.Every post she had ever written about her "secret love" for Ch

"But sometimes, life is unpredictable. You never know what will happen next. I heard everything you said, so I played along, and I used the revenge you planned against me… to take my revenge on you instead.""Stop… Jess… 18 years! You're asking me to let go now?

I can't bear the weight of your so-called love anymore, and I won't turn back."He ran a hand through his hair in frustration, his voice laced with desperation. "The future is so long… Isn't there even the slightest chance for me?"

If the 23-year-old Christopher could see the 28-year-old him, would he want to kill him?I had become the biggest joke in the entire capital.They said my bride ran away from our wedding in front of the whole city and that she left behind two men fighting over her—neither of whom was any good.They said that a bastard like me deserved this for messing with her in the first place.I didn't care about any of it. I just wanted to see her again.I searched every corner of the city, but she was nowhere to be found.Only then did I finally understand the despair she must have felt when I disappeared and the helplessness she must have endured as she searched for me night after night.She had erased herself from my world.No one knew where she had gone.I tried hiring people to track her down, but the response was always the same. "Mr. Sanders, please don't make things difficult for us."It made sense. She had started planning her escape the moment she heard me say those words.She
