In my third year of running a flower shop to support my boyfriend, he went bankrupt again. The first time he went bankrupt, I sold the house my grandmother left me and paid off $700,000 for him. The second time, I dug out the savings account my mother had left me as my wedding fund and paid off another $1.6 million.

But that night, I accidentally saw the messages in a small group chat on his tablet. "Mr. Hart, how much should we put on the repayment contract for this bankruptcy?" "Make it $10 million. Otherwise that flower-shop girl will pay it all off in one go again, and where's the fun in that?" "Mr. Hart really knows how to play. I heard that flower-shop girl tends flowers by day and tends to you by night. No wonder you never get tired of her." I put down his tablet and called my billionaire father. "Isn't this what you wanted? To force me to inherit the family business and marry your protege? Fine. I'll marry him. "Have somebody come pick me up in three days."

I had a secret ability I never told anyone about. Whenever I was intimate with my boyfriend, I saw what he had been doing exactly one hour earlier. In the past, the glimpses had always been filled with love. I saw him standing in the rain, patiently waiting in line to buy my favorite muffins. I saw him gripping a small ring box with sweaty hands, nervously rehearsing his proposal again and again. Because of those moments, I believed that Eugene Shaw loved me with all his heart. Three days before our wedding, everything changed. The instant his lips met mine, a vision flashed before my eyes. In a dim lounge, he had Jeannie Rogers, my best friend, pressed against the door. Tears streamed down Jeannie’s face as she pushed weakly against his chest. "We cannot keep doing this. "Melissa paid for my education. She did everything for me. She has been nothing but good to me. "If she ever finds out, it will destroy her." Eugene did not answer. He lowered his head and kissed her. His voice sounded rough and unfamiliar. "She will never know. "And I am marrying her in three days. "Think of this as one last mistake." The vision vanished as quickly as it appeared. Back in reality, Eugene still held me in his arms. He brushed his hand across my cheek, his eyes warm with affection. "Melissa, we are almost married. "Are you happy?" I looked into his loving eyes and smiled faintly. The love I had seen in those visions had been real. His betrayal had been real as well. After seven years together, our story ended here.
