Lena's POVI couldn't breathe. People applauded loudly, around me, while my entire world felt like it was collapsing.The man standing besides Eleanor was William Foster, Liam, my boyfriend. I stared at them from across the room, my chest tightening painfully. We'd been together for three years. Three years of promises, plans, and believing we were building something together. And now he was standing beside another woman while everyone celebrated their engagement.Tears blurred my vision, I took a step backward, then another. I couldn't trust myself to stay there another second so I turned and walked away. The laughter and music faded behind me as I pushed through a set of glass doors and ran outside.
