Lahat ng Kabanata ng My Boyfriend's Ex Gifted Me Hornets! : Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 9

Joe looked at me in exasperation, as if questioning why I was making a joke that was wasting everyone's time.We had been in a relationship for three years. We had broken up before, but we somehow always made up and got back together.The last time we got into a fight and broke up was when Erica made a huge mess at our engagement party.Joe had been particularly furious then. He slapped Erica and gave her the cold shoulder."Leave, or you're going to regret what I'll do to you."Back then, Joe grabbed Erica by the wrist and dragged her out to the road.When he returned, he knelt before me in front of all our relatives and elders, and promised nothing like this would ever happen again.After that, Joe proved his loyalty to me by deleting Erica's contact and blocking her on all social media."I'm twenty-seven, Simone. All I want to do is spend the rest of my life with you. I don't want anybody else."As he declared his love for me, Joe took out a diamond ring from his pocket cal

There was no time for me to change. I jumped into my car and sped crazily, running through at least three red lights.I did not care. If my mother did not get help during her asthma attack, she would die.Despite hurrying toward her, I was still too late.My mother was foaming at the mouth, lying on the ground motionless with her eyes rolled upward.I quickly called an ambulance to take her to the hospital.As I was trembling, I called Erica.Her voice sounded sickly sweet, like she had just had a great time in bed. She admitted to everything."That's right. I was the one who sent the photos and recording to your mother. That should teach you a lesson for trying to steal my man!""Erica, I won't let you get away with it if anything happens to my mother!"She laughed, not taking my threat seriously. She replied to me sarcastically, "Here's to wishing you a blessed wedding in advance, Simone."Why was she trying to make me so angry?Fine. I would not give in any longer.I tri

Erica was charged with the intention to harm others by the police because of the strong evidence and injury assessment report I provided.She cried as she called Joe to plead with him to save her."I didn't expect that old woman to be so useless. It took only a few photos to break her. I just couldn't bear the thought of you leaving me, so I just wanted somewhere to vent…"Joe, I'm only twenty-six. I don't want to go to prison. I'm still young. Please save me!"I promise I won't do anything stupid ever again!"Joe had a bunch of unsolved problems, and he had to deal with the jewelry showcase in a few days. He was buried in work, and he could not help taking out his anger on Erica."I told you it was the last time I would indulge you! There's no longer anything between us now."You just had to do something like this, didn't you? Simone's mom raised her as a single mom. Her mother is the most important person in the world to her. Look at the predicament you've put me in!"She wan

A few days later, my expression turned dark when unwelcomed guests came knocking on my door.Joe's parents had forcefully dragged Joe to my house. They made him kneel in front of me. His face was flushed.His father was an old friend of my father, which was why he did not want things to get ugly."Simone, I know that Joe was the one at fault for what happened at the wedding, and nothing we say can make up for it. He has to pay for what he did to you."Joe was forced to kneel. There were dark rings under his eyes, and he looked sad and pathetic."Admit your mistakes. You owe that to Simone!"Joe's father whipped him with a belt. The heavy sound of the whip rang in everyone's ears.Blood started to drench Joe's shirt. His mother got anxious, sobbing as she begged me to forgive him."Simone, you're a good girl, and we hope that both of you can talk it out. Joe only loves you. He just made a mistake because he wasn't thinking straight."Please give him another chance, Simone."I
