All Chapters of Hearing Hearts: Stealing My Fiancé's First Love: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

When I didn't immediately argue back, Steven softened his tone."Nadia, you need to understand something. A successful man like me is bound to have a few women on the side. Don't worry. From now on, I'll treat both of you fairly."It's just that Molly has a stubborn personality. You'll need to be more accommodating toward her. "Otherwise, when she gets jealous, she's capable of anything. If that happens, you'll be the one who suffers."A look of disdain flashed through Molly Hart's eyes.Yet I heard her inner thoughts clearly."What kind of nonsense is this jerk spouting?"He's the cheater, but he's pinning the blame on me. I seriously want to slap him so hard he'd stick to the wall!"At the same time, an electronic voice sounded.[Host, quit complaining and say the villainess's lines. If you don't, I'll administer an electric shock.]Molly's expression stiffened.She took a deep breath and put on an arrogant act."Since Steven has spoken, I'll make myself clear too. You may have the t

"How about I help you put her through a pre-wedding test and see how she reacts?"If she passes the test, you can always marry her afterward. If she makes a scene, then we'll keep the pressure on until she accepts it."Zach was the first to slap his thigh in approval."Now that's a great idea! This way, you'll end up with an obedient wife too."Steven remained silent for a long time before finally speaking."Fine. But don't take it too far."The moment I heard those words, I couldn't even process how much they hurt.When I first met him, the Cooper family had just gone bankrupt, and Molly left him because of it.I was the one who quit my job to help him build his business from the ground up, running from client to client through freezing winters until my feet were covered in frostbite.I was also the one who drank with clients until I ended up in the hospital just to help him secure major contracts.Back then, he introduced me to everyone as his fiancée, his voice full of pride.But af

[Recalculating... Accessing favorability data for target 'Nadia York'...][Current favorability toward Molly Hart: 70/100.][Reevaluating mission pathway... If the target is switched from 'Steven Cooper' to 'Nadia York,' current progress can be transferred automatically. Based on current calculations, approximately 63% of the original mission progress will be retained.][System assessment: Target switch is viable. Does the host wish to confirm?]Molly's mouth fell open.It stayed that way for several seconds.Then she threw her arms around me and let out an ear-piercing squeal."So that works too?! Tell me, what do I need to do to make you like me even more?"Barbecue ribs? I can make fried chicken too! I can make soup! I can cook anything!"She shook me so hard that my head started spinning.I laughed and caught her hands."You only need to do one thing."Molly immediately straightened up, looking as though she were prepared to charge into battle."Just say the word! I'd do anything.

After our product launched, it performed far better than anyone expected.Within two years, we secured three rounds of funding.Within three years, the company's valuation increased twentyfold.Steven returned to the world he was familiar with.He went back to wearing custom-tailored suits.He went back to riding in luxury cars.And then he started to change.At first, it was the endless business dinners. He came home later and later each night.Then all those old friends came back.Then all those old friends came back, treating him with the same warmth and respect they'd shown before the bankruptcyAnd after that, Molly returned from overseas.Molly huffed."So, in the end, it all comes down to that jerk having no backbone."I smiled but didn't argue."What about the tech team?"Molly pressed."Don't tell me everyone in the department was loyal to you."I nodded."The company's original core technology was developed by me. Later, when the company grew, I built the entire engineering t

Molly and I treated all of it as a joke.Then we went right back to focusing on the company.After the first client came the second.Then the third.None of the projects were particularly large, but they provided steady business.By the fourth month, the company had already reached profitability.When Molly showed me the financial statements, she looked like she'd just won the lottery."Do you know what this means? It means we don't have to live off our savings anymore! The company can finally support itself!"I watched her excitement and suddenly felt a sense of warmth.But it wasn't the same feeling I'd once had for Steven.What I'd felt for Steven had been dependence, regret, and an inability to let go.That kind of love was like a rope wrapped around your neck, tightening until I could barely breathe.What I had with Molly was different.There were no complicated calculations between us, no debts and anyone keeping score.We simply supported each other.She helped me escape.I help
