Ditched at Our Seventh Engagement
Sawyer Patterson intended to leave me again for his childhood sweetheart, Mathilde Payne.
We'd been together for ten years, and this was our seventh engagement party.
For the previous six times, Mathilde always had some kind of emergency.
This time, I wasn't going to let him go. "We're about to exchange rings. It won't take long. She's just got a slight fever. It's not a big deal if you go later, right?"
Sawyer lost it. "Can you stop making a scene? Mathilde has always been frail. We've been together for ten years. We can do without a ceremony."
He walked out, leaving me behind with a broken heart.
This time, I was truly done with him.
