All Chapters of Forever Lost My Love: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Marrying a playboy took some serious grit.As the tissues in my hand got thinner, those words popped into my head.The girl across from me, Rebecca Frye, was a senior in college. She'd been crying for two hours straight since walking in.Her whirlwind romance with Chad lasted barely a month. It was hardly worth smearing her makeup over.I tried to comfort her, but she suddenly looked at me with teary eyes."He once said I reminded him of you. Now I see it," she started.I froze because none of Chad's exes had ever said that to me.Rebecca sniffled, wiping her eyes. Then, with a mocking edge, she said, "I don't need your pity. You're way more pathetic than me."She was spot on.Everyone in Aurespring knew Chad married a saintly wife. She was such a saint that she forgot his repetitive betrayals and even helped clean up his messes.I called every girl he dated during our marriage an ex. I had thrown my dignity out the window.My phone buzzed with a text from Chad.[Still not

I couldn't forget Chad's cold voice outside the hospital room."It's not a bad thing. The baby shouldn't have existed anyway," he said.After that, we reached an unspoken agreement. He kept playing the field, while I only wanted to keep my family afloat.He could date anyone he liked as long as he didn't knock them up. Sadly, he broke his word, and my parents passed away, which rendered our marriage meaningless.I didn't want to force it anymore.I leaned against the car window, my breath hot. He calmed Rebecca down and walked back to me.I just watched without feeling anything. He opened the door, put my arms around his neck, and carried me toward the ER.Over his shoulder, I saw Rebecca sniffle and stare at me with contempt. As he passed, she reached for his shirt but grasped the air.Chad strode forward, his handsome face set in stone. His serious expression always gave me false hope, like he'd come back no matter how far he strayed.The illusion was finally shattered. I sh

Chad came back to his senses and loosened his grip.He waved Nick off irritably. "Go. Talk to my assistant about your terms."His men hurried up and haled Nick out. I stepped forward. "Wait. What do you mean by that?" Chad blocked me and clasped his hands down on my shoulders. "Nothing. Come home with me."I broke free and rushed over to grab Nick's shirt. "You want money? I'll pay. Just explain what you said."My heart pounded, panic nearly choking me.Nick brushed off his restraints, looking past me to Chad. "Last month, while I begged for your investment, I figured some things out. Ten years proved I'm no businessman. Every venture was a bust. When I heard you two were divorcing, I let it all go. The world has got another free soul, but Heather won't come back."He stared at me and spoke seriously. "The night before their engagement, Chad knew Heather was running away. In fact, he arranged her escape and even... the plane ticket."An echo swirled in my ears, pulling me bac

"I called them all your exes, even during our marriage," I added. "But none of them broke our marriage. From start to finish, you were the only one eating me up."They were just passersby.I once thought they had it better, leaving some mark on Chad's heart. But seeing his confused look, I suddenly pitied them."Don't remember?" I sneered. "What about this one? You liked her a lot. You were together for almost a year. She showed up in a wedding dress to win you back. And this one? When my parents caught you with her, you cleared their bank loans to shut them up."Maybe because my parents' demands were so relentless over the years, mentioning them didn't stir much of my emotions.Chad's palms grew sweaty. After a long pause, he said, "Did I? I don't recall."In those 3,000-odd days and nights, he dated countless girls. The wall of flowers bloomed and wilted, but they were still dazzling.I moved toward "Bloom", but he yanked me back.His eyes held deep helplessness, and his lips

I grew up as Heather's foil and messy shadow.Avoiding Chad's gaze, I tucked his blanket in, but then my hand froze. The sunken spot under the blanket hit me like a void.He gave a bitter smile. "Guess I'm out of the game now."My head jerked up, my blood rushing to my head."Are you insane?" I snapped. "Rebecca was with you. Why did you drive that fast?"His hand on the blanket shook. He tried to smile, but it wouldn't come."For a second, I thought she was you," he muttered....He'd gone to negotiate with Rebecca that day.After two weeks of madness, his inner demons had nearly broken him. It was shameful, but his parents wanted the baby.He had lingered at her door, weighing his leverage.It was his last shot. If he could get Rebecca to leave and even get rid of the baby, he'd be free.Then he could chase me without worries. But his plan fell apart in a moment.Rebecca had slipped on the stairs. He had pushed the door open to blood streaking the steps. He had lost it,
