All Chapters of From Her Pawn to Her Nightmare: Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

When I got back to the rental apartment, night had already fallen. The air was thick with dampness and mold, mixed with the greasy scent of cheap takeout. On the table sat a grilled cheese sandwich and a bowl of tomato soup, still steaming.Tiffany Jensen was sitting on the edge of the bed, scrolling through her phone. She did not even look up when I walked in.A few hours ago, I would have been over the moon and thought that, despite her harsh words, she still cared about me deep down. Now, I walked past the table without a glance, heading straight for the beat-up wardrobe in the corner to pack my few faded T-shirts. Tiffany grumbled, "Who are you putting on this show for? You're so dramatic. I said a few things to you, and you're still sulking? What kind of man holds a grudge over something so small? I still remember when I found you. You could barely speak when you first woke up. Now you only have a few headaches, yet you act like it's the end of the world."Her muttering sound

Ethan casually pulled a thick stack of hundred-dollar bills from his Hermes wallet and threw them in my face. "Here, this covers it. That's enough to buy you a truckload of this garbage."My teeth ground together as I raised my fist and swung it at his hateful face."William, are you insane?" Tiffany screamed, quickly throwing herself in front of Ethan. She grabbed my wrist in a death grip."He already paid you back. What more do you want? You're just trying to extort more money, aren't you? Is it really worth making such a scene over some stupid notebook?"I suddenly froze, all the strength draining from my body. In her eyes, all my pain and struggle had been reduced to extortion. Everything I had given her was apparently worthless.I pried her fingers off my wrist one by one and calmly pulled my hand back. Then, I turned away, wanting to escape this disgusting farce."Stop right there!" Ethan's voice came from behind me. "I paid you for your notebook, so we're even on that. But

Seeing that I did not stop Sophia, Tiffany clung desperately to the doorframe and turned all her fury on me instead"William, don't you hate women like her the most? Those high-and-mighty rich know-it-alls? Why are you taking her side? Are you choosing her instead of me?"She shouted, "You ungrateful liar! Is there a single honest word that comes out of your mouth? When you told me you loved me at the construction site, were you acting too? Look me in the eyes and answer me!""Liar?" I quietly mumbled that word, then smiled. I slowly turned my head to meet her crazed stare. "Aren't you the liar? The heiress of the Jensen family, Ms. Tiffany Jensen, slumming it with an amnesiac poor guy, playing house for five years. That must have been such a hardship for you."Tiffany stumbled back a step. "It wasn't like that, William. I wanted to tell you for so long, I really did!"She could not meet my eyes. "William, I admit I didn't have good intentions at first. I just wanted to spite my

Tiffany had lost a lot of weight and shed all those flashy designer labels. She was now wearing a simple, modest dress as she stood quietly in the corner. She was no longer that radiant Jensen family heiress.The Jensen Group had been left teetering on the brink of collapse after her father's failed investments and my behind-the-scenes sabotage, existing in name only. When she saw me step out of the Rolls-Royce, she ignored the security guards trying to stop her and rushed at me like a madwoman."William!" Sophia instinctively moved to block her, but I raised my hand to stop her.I stared at the woman who had nearly destroyed the first half of my life.Tiffany grabbed my arm as tears poured down her face. "Just give me one more chance, please? I don't want anything else. I don't want the Jensen family, I don't want anything… I just want you!""Ms. Jensen, do you know what? The first thing I did after coming back was have someone investigate that car accident from years ago."Sh
