บททั้งหมดของ MY EX-BOYFRIEND WANTS ME BACK: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 6

I heaved, swayed and turned recklessly, with Sara occasionally whispering into my ears, the music was loud, we could barely hear ourselves, I looked at her happy face, the only person who wanted to see me happy.Colored lights flashed into our faces. Sara dragged me deeper into the club, her laughter cutting through the loud music,“Happy birthday, girl! You deserve to be happy!” I could barely hear her but I also read her lips, shoving another shot into my hand. Tequila. I threw it down my throat immediately like some doctor's prescription, it burned, but not as much as my heart from the heartbreak that Marcus had dished out to me.I hit the empty glass on the bar, and let the music pull me. We danced, hips swaying, arms up, hair flying. Sara is such a vibe queen, the only reason I have kept it together. For a few minutes, I almost forgot Marcus. Almost forgot the promises he’d whispered before he left for his “big business trip.” Almost forgot how his texts stopped coming, how he o

The nanny, Maria, she’d introduced herself with a quick nod and wide smile, grabbed the second suitcase from the front step without a word. She wheeled it smoothly beside mine as we stepped into the foyer. Marble floors gleamed under our feet. I was just too conscious of everything, everything here costs real money. My eyes roamed around, a faint smile clung to my face.The air smelled expensive, like I had to drop some cents to breathe comfortably here, fresh linen and citrus filled my nostrils.We turned into the sitting room and my stomach twisted tighter. I jammed my lips together immediately, I can't be found drooling.Victoria Langford sat on the biggest couch I’d ever seen, cream leather, wide enough to swallow my whole frame. Her laptop balanced on a glass table in front of her. My eyes ran through the masterpiece of a human in front of me, blonde hair stuck behind her ears perfectly, a free-sized dress that allowed her skin shine effortlessly, diamond studs catching the lig
