All Chapters of It's Easy to Fall Out of Love: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I felt feverish. My body was aching all over. My limbs were heavy, and I couldn't even summon the strength to argue back.At least Bryan finally noticed the pile of soaked clothes in the corner. A flicker of realization passed through his eyes—something like guilt, or maybe just reluctant responsibility. Without another word, he rushed to dress me and get me to the hospital.His phone rang a few times, but for once, he ignored it, too focused on helping me.Until that one ringtone.He had just pulled me up when it chimed through the room. Without hesitation, his hands left me. I barely managed to stay upright as he strode into the living room to answer.A saccharine voice drifted over. "Bryan, the party's over. The rain's so heavy… Can you come pick me up?"No hesitation. Not even a pause. He simply threw a cursory "I have to go, I'll be back soon" over his shoulder before vanishing out the door.My mouth tasted bitter. My heart felt even worse.She had her own custom ringtone,

It turned out, he really did expect me to follow.In the hospital room, Peggy curled into Bryan's embrace, sobbing softly as she stretched out a trembling hand for the injection."Bryan, I'm scared."He was infinitely patient with her, soothing her in a voice I had never heard before.For a moment, I drifted back to the past.I had been just like her once—a delicate girl afraid of pain.When we first started dating, I caught a cold and needed an injection. I nestled into his arms, hoping for comfort.But he had pulled away in disgust."A grown woman afraid of needles? How pathetic."The needle had pierced my wrist, but it was my heart that had truly been stabbed that day.Over time, I stopped fearing injections.Now, I feared nothing. Not pain, not losing love—nothing at all.I watched Bryan in silence, but he kept stealing glances at me.When he saw my indifference, his expression darkened.If I so much as showed a flicker of unhappiness, he smirked in satisfaction.And

Just as I was about to greet them, Peggy let out a cold snort."Can't we get someone else? I don't want to work with a woman who seduces clients."The room fell into a stunned silence before whispers broke out among the staff.Because Bryan had never acknowledged me publicly, I had spent years hiding our marriage just to keep him happy. But now, hearing Peggy say this, I could feel the shift in the way people looked at me."Mr. Millan and his assistant seem like a real couple. Could Lydia actually be the mistress?""I don't think so. She's good at her job, and she's always been decent. I don't buy it.""Why not? If the client says so, it must be true. It's obvious that Mrs. Millan doesn't like Lydia. Can't you see that?"Mrs. Millan, huh? They all assumed Peggy was his wife and cast me as the homewrecker.Peggy practically glowed with satisfaction, especially at the sound of that title. Meanwhile, Bryan stood there, cold and silent, offering no explanation. Not a single word

"He regrets it. But this time, I won't give him another chance." Luke's voice was calm and steady.He had always liked me—eight years, even knowing I didn't feel the same. I had always known, and I had always been touched by it.Now, under his gaze, my heart skipped a little faster.But when he leaned in, just inches away, about to kiss me—I pulled back.The alcohol hummed through my veins, but I forced myself to stay clear-headed."Give me a little time, okay?" I said. "Let me sort through my feelings first. Otherwise, it wouldn't be fair to you."I had spent eight years loving Bryan, a man who never loved me back. Every step had been walking on thin ice.I couldn't let Luke, someone so good, go through the same pain I had.He didn't move away. We were still close enough that I could feel the warmth of his breath on my skin. He studied me for a moment, then smiled and nodded."I'll wait."Instead of pressing further, he simply kissed my forehead gently.The next morning at

I only wanted to scare Bryan away.But I hadn't expected that the ever-arrogant business tycoon—who had never once looked at me properly—would drop to his knees without hesitation at my words.I spoke before he could kneel. "Even if you beg me, I won't take you back. Bryan, the real obstacle between us is that I don't love you anymore. Thank you for helping me realize—I've emptied my heart of you."As I brushed past him, his face turned ashen.I dragged my suitcase out the door and caught sight of a familiar figure lingering beneath the trees. The sunlight bathed him in warmth, making the scene feel almost surreal.Meeting my questioning gaze, Luke hesitated for a long moment before mumbling, "What a coincidence. I was just passing by and thought the view here looked nice, so I stopped for a bit…"Even he couldn't keep up the lie. With a sheepish shrug, he admitted, "Alright, fine. I was worried about you, so I waited outside on purpose."I couldn't help but laugh.Tentatively,
