Chapter 1

After a moment of silence, Paisley Needham's voice burned with anger. "Remy Armer, I told you, we're just going through the motions. Are you seriously still hung up on this?"She snapped, "I've already agreed to marry you. What more do you want? I'm warning you, don't push your luck!"I tightened my grip on the phone, refusing to stay silent and give in like I always had before."Yeah, just going through the motions," I said coldly. "But even for something as simple as getting a marriage license, you wouldn't do it with me after five years together. Yet you went and did it with Jude instead."For five years, all I dreamed of was a happy married life with her. Every time I tried to move our relationship forward, Paisley used the company's growth as an excuse. She said it was a critical period and told me to wait until things were more stable. To help her stabilize the business, I took on all the dirty work. I worked overtime and attended endless meetings and business dinners.Whe

The voice on the other end sounded excited. "Really, Mr. Armer? When will you be coming?"The owner of this company had taken a strong interest in me. He had sent multiple invitations, trying to recruit me.Because of childhood trauma, Paisley didn't want to live abroad. Time and again, I turned down those offers, giving up promising career opportunities. All of it was just to stay with her in our home country.I thought sincerity would be met with sincerity.In the end, I lost completely. I had spent my youth with Paisley, weathering five years of highs and lows, only to be humiliated by her like this.If that was how it was, then it was time I started thinking about myself."The day after tomorrow," I replied. "I still need some time to resign."The other party agreed immediately. After hanging up, he even transferred the money for my plane ticket.After ending the call, I noticed Paisley had just updated her social feed. In the photo, she and Jude were enjoying a candlelit d

My heart clenched. No wonder Paisley was willing to lower her pride. In the end, it was still all about Jude.She knew perfectly well that I had been researching all of this for our wedding. And now she expected me to give her and Jude ideas?I refused without hesitation. "Figure it out yourselves. I can't help you."Seeing that I wouldn't play along, Paisley completely lost her temper. "Remy, I'm just putting on a show with Jude. Do you really have to take this so seriously?""Whether it's an act or real feelings, you know the truth," I replied.That dreamy look on her face when she spoke of taking wedding photos said it all. She had truly fallen."You're being ridiculous!" Paisley stomped her foot in anger.I didn't feel like arguing and started heading toward the bedroom. But she rushed in first, tossed my pillow out, and told me to sleep in the study, trying to force me to back down.Little did she know, that was exactly what I wanted.When I woke up the next day, Paisley

Paisley narrowed her eyes. "Resign? When did I ever agree to that?"Jude immediately seized the moment to stir the pot. "Mr. Armer, no matter how upset you are, there's no need to fake an approval just to get back at Ms. Needham. Do you have any idea how hard it is for her to run this company on her own?"Hearing that, she immediately shot me a look of disappointment. "Remy, why can't you be more like Jude? And let me make this clear. I'm not falling for your little 'playing hard to get' act. Enough is enough. Keep pushing it, and this won't end well."Her eyes were full of undisguised disgust. "I'll give you one last chance," she continued coldly. "Get back to work before I change my mind, or you'll regret it."Meeting Paisley's warning glare, I couldn't help but feel the irony. I had laid the truth right in front of her, yet she'd rather believe Jude's provocations than a word I said.Looking back, ever since Jude showed up, Paisley had always assumed the worst of me. Every co

Before I could say a word, Wyatt, standing beside me, couldn't take it anymore and stepped up to speak for me. "Who says Remy can't find a job? Didn't you hear? He has already accepted an offer from a company abroad. He's leaving this afternoon! We came out today for his farewell lunch. Who knew we'd be so unlucky as to run into you two?"Wyatt shot Paisley a cold glance and scoffed. "Paisley, did you really not know? The overseas firm is offering way better pay and benefits than you ever did. Remy will only soar higher and go further after leaving you. Staying by your side was the real misfortune!"Thinking back, it was almost laughable. Five years of working my hardest for Paisley, and she gave me only one pathetic raise of two hundred dollars.Even after the raise, my base salary was only a hundred dollars more than a newcomer's, yet I did ten times the work.She was always feeding me empty promises, telling me not to worry. She said that once we got married, I'd have half the

I was somewhat surprised. Paisley liked Jude so much, and I had to back off to help them be together. So why was she unhappy?But I couldn't be bothered to think about it too much. I just quietly pulled my hand away."Paisley, our breakup is already a done deal," I said. "Even if you don't agree, it's not going to change anything."I had already wasted too much time on them. It was well past lunchtime, and I had to catch my flight. I could only apologize to Wyatt. "Sorry, Wyatt. Looks like I won't make it to the farewell lunch. I've got a plane to catch."He patted my shoulder and nodded. "Don't worry about it. We can eat another time. Your flight's more important. I'll take you to the airport." Hearing that, Paisley stepped closer. "I'm coming with you. We need to talk this through."Right then, a miserable groan came from behind us. I turned and saw Jude crouched on the ground, clutching his chest and gasping for air, his face contorted in pain. "Ms. Needham, I… My asthma's

The plane had barely landed when I spotted the HR rep and my new boss from the leading tech company waiting for me.After they got me settled in, they showed me around the office and took care of all my onboarding. With their guidance, I quickly adjusted to life abroad and threw myself into work.Thanks to my skills, I closed a major deal for the company in less than a week. My boss was so thrilled that he promoted me, gave me a raise, and even held a celebration in my honor.My new colleagues were amazing. They all pitched in to help one another, creating a positive work atmosphere that even boosted our efficiency.My career was thriving, and life was going smoothly.Meanwhile, Paisley kept flooding her social media with posts about her and Jude. Photos of them together, the new car she'd bought him, even celebrations for his promotion to the vice president role I had once wanted. She was flaunting their relationship nonstop.I knew she was doing it to get under my skin, to ma

The bracelet was not the one I'd shared with Paisley. It belonged to my current girlfriend. As for the one I'd had with her, I threw it away long ago.I was just about to explain when Hallie Sullivan, the HR manager at my new company, stepped out of the private room and slipped her arm through mine."You must be Ms. Needham, my boyfriend's ex, right? You've misunderstood. This bracelet belongs to Remy and me, not you and him."During the three months I'd been in Mordayn, Hallie had always taken good care of me and genuinely appreciated my work. I'd grown rather fond of her as well. So when she confessed her feelings, I agreed to be with her.When she found out that Paisley and I used to have matching bracelets, she flew into a jealous rage. She even insisted on dragging me back home, just so we could go to the Chapel of Union and have a new pair made together.Paisley stared in disbelief at Hallie, who was behaving intimately with me. "What did you say? Boyfriend? You two are dati
