Chapter 1

It had been 30 days since our fight, and Jade Oakley still had not said a word to me.That evening, she finally sent me the address of a campsite and told me I had to go.As I got closer, I heard people cheering.In the middle of the crowd, Jade stood up holding hands with her first love, Zach Simmons. They walked to the center together.They looked at each other for a moment before Jade wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.Everyone suddenly started cheering and clapping.One of her friends saw me and said with a smile, “Ivan, your girlfriend’s getting a new boyfriend. Aren’t you going to win her back?“We all know you had been trying to win her heart for eight years before she finally said yes. Are you really willing to let her go?”It was already 8 p.m.Jade still had her hand on Zach’s shoulder when she turned to look at me.In front of everyone, I took her hand and sincerely said, “I’m sorry.”Even though I had done nothing wrong, I still apologized.I had b

I had known Jade for many years, but it was the first time I saw her care about someone else.We had known each other since we were kids.The first time I saw her, she wore short overalls and carried a bag of rice.Her face was dirty, but her eyes were bright with life.For some reason, I pulled my luggage over and asked, “Do you need help?”She did not hesitate and handed me the bag of rice. Then, she took my luggage.When we arrived, I discovered that she was also staying with her grandmother in the countryside.I was there because my parents had died, and she was there because her parents were too busy to take care of her.I also found out I was one year older than her.After some time, I started looking after her.When she started attending my high school, I realized I had a crush on her. I would sometimes give her little gifts and always pay attention to everything she did.Everyone knew I liked her.I saw her date another guy, but that relationship ended for some reas

Jade looked just as impressed.I did not say a word. I just quietly started counting down the time and thought about how to leave.At some point, Zach looked at me with a smirk and said, “Ivan, when are you going to start your own company so Jade can be the boss’s wife?”The truth was, I never told Jade I actually owned part of the company.Ryan invested the money, and I contributed my skills.In the end, he gave me 30% of the shares.So, really, I was a co-owner. I just did not like handling business decisions and left most of it to Ryan.I even called him “boss” like everyone else.To Jade, I was just an ordinary employee getting a monthly paycheck.She clicked her tongue and said, “Come on.“He’s the kind of guy who’ll be working for someone else his whole life.“If I’m counting on him, I might as well wish for a miracle.“You’d be better off asking him how not to get fired.”Everyone laughed.Jade, enjoying the attention, started telling embarrassing stories about me.

After I finished everything, I opened the window and let the cold wind come in.I took a deep breath and felt a sense of freedom and relief.At the airport, I took out my SIM card and threw it in the trash.“Get lost.”When Zach brought Jade home, she was still drunk.The lights were off in the house. Even though it was empty, Jade did not notice.Zach had to search around for a while before he turned the lights on.He put Jade on the couch and quietly asked, “Jade, where’s your kitchen?”Jade did not hear him. She mumbled, “Ivan, bring me some water.”No one answered.She felt strange and a little scared for no reason.Zach complained, “Why is Ivan like this? He didn’t wait for you and went to sleep.“Don’t look for him. I’ll get the water.”Zach stood up and started looking for the kitchen.Jade felt less nervous but more angry.“He’s gone too far,” she muttered. Her eyes were dull as she looked at the table.I used to put fresh flowers here every day, but it was em

Jade’s whole body went weak, and she fell to the floor by the balcony door.Thinking back, all the signs were there.She had taken my love for granted and kept hurting me.Even that evening, she had kissed another guy right in front of me.When she realized I was really gone, she started crying loudly.She cried until she was too tired and fell asleep on the floor.The next morning, a phone call woke her up.Still half-asleep, she answered it.It was her parents.“Jade, when are you bringing him home to meet us?”Jade felt like crying again.“Mom, we have no more future together.“He went to Northern City and said he’s never coming back.”Her mom did not seem surprised. She sighed and said, “I warned you before. Don’t get too close to guys who aren’t dependable. Now look at what happened.“Since it’s over, don’t try to chase him. Just focus on your job.“He’s finally living his own life.”Jade’s eyes filled with tears. She felt even worse.“So you knew he would leave m

Meanwhile, things were going really well for me at work.Since I was new in town, it took a few months of dealing with the local government before I finally got the rights to a piece of land in the city center.I showed up at just the right time. Northern City was pushing for economic growth.So I decided to build a big supermarket on that land.Once I had the idea, I gave it to my team to design.That subordinate from before, Wendy Taylor, had become one of my most trusted team members.At lunchtime, she came in with my food right on time.“Mr. Young, time to eat.” I nodded for her to put it down.But then I noticed she was also holding a big bouquet of flowers.I was not happy.“Is this for me too?”Wendy looked a little troubled and explained, “A woman forced me to give it to you. She said it’s really important, and you have to read it.”I did not know anyone important, so I waved my hand to tell her to throw them out.Then, Wendy added, “Her name is Jade Oakley.”My

Jade got a little panicked. She quickly stood up and ran after me.She followed me and kept saying sorry.She said she was only here on a work trip and would leave soon.She also said she just wanted to see me.I was annoyed but finally agreed to take a walk with her outside.Speaking of which, I had not really walked around Northern City since I got here.Outside the restaurant was a busy street with lots of people.Jade suddenly took out her phone and tried to take a selfie with me.I tried to move away.Click.But it was too late. She showed me the photo.“We look good, right?”I just looked at it without caring much.Jade continued, “This is our first photo together.”Then, she stopped. I sneered.So she knew too.We had been together for ten years, and I often thought about taking a couple’s photoshoot with her.But Jade always came out with different reasons and said no.She said she was busy or that the photos would look bad.But she still went on trips with

When I got home, I quickly took off my clothes and tossed them into the washing machine. Then, I went straight to take a shower.The friend who tricked me into meeting Jade sent me a message. [So… did you two make up?]I replied. [Get lost.]Then, I sent another message. [If you help her meet me again, you can stay away too.]He did not seem to care and kept asking what had happened between us all these years.I thought about it and just said, “I was basically her unpaid servant.”He was angry for me. “She’s gone too far!“Sorry, man. I won’t be that dumb again.“If that’s what love looks like, even a dog wouldn’t want it!”I rubbed my forehead and gave a bitter smile.I was that dog back then.The next day, Wendy came to tell me about the meeting schedule. I nodded, already aware of it.But when I walked into the meeting room, I saw Jade sitting there.I was surprised.So she had not lied. She really did a good job on her recent project. Otherwise, she would not have had

Chapter 9

After I got back to Southern City, the first person who showed up was Jade’s friend, Rachel Zimmerman.“Can you please go see her?“She hasn’t been eating, and now she has cancer.“The doctor said she doesn’t have much time left.”I just smiled and said, “If she’s sick, she should see a doctor.”Rachel looked upset but did not argue.“At least go for old times’ sake. “She still thinks about you.”I was tired of hearing this and shut the door in her face.My grandma heard the noise and asked, “Was that Jade?”I got curious and asked, “Has she been here?”Grandma replied, “Yes, she’s come a lot.”She pulled me aside and told me more.When I left, Jade came to see my grandma.She first called, then came to the house in person and begged for my address.My grandma refused and even chased her away with a broom.Jade took several hits from my grandma’s broom. She cried but did not move or try to defend herself.“I just want to know where he is.”My grandma did not know wha
