My Ex's Betrayal
Five years after we broke up, my ex bought the company I worked for and suddenly became my direct boss.
The project plan I'd stayed up nights working on—nearly killing myself to finish—was handed to someone else without a word.
My teammates were split apart, and I became his go-to example when he wanted to tear someone down. I was the laughingstock of the office.
Shawn Lubbard said it was the price I had to pay for betraying him.
Finally, I asked him what it would take for him to leave me alone. His reply?
"Only if you die."
Feeling crushed, I drove a knife into my chest right in front of him.
Maybe this terrible life should have ended long ago.
