The 99th Time He Gave Up On Me Novels & Stories

When I was little, Mom told me I'd damaged Gemma, my sister's hearing, so she and Dad gave Gemma ninety-nine "favor coupons"——every time she cashed one in, I had to give in. On my birthday, Gemma wanted mango cake. She used one of her coupons, and Mom replaced my birthday cake with mango cake, even though I was allergic to it. When Gemma got caught smoking at school, she used another coupon, and Mom made me take the blame for her. The whole school thought I was a troublemaker. For an entire year, no one would so much as talk to me. ... Between the ages of eight and eighteen, Gemma used ninety-six coupons. And ninety-six times, I was the one pushed aside. I thought that once she used th

The paper slipped from his fingers and scattered across the floor. The contract clearly stated: Zoey had been given 99 chances. If he chose her even once, she’d be allowed to stay and marry him. If not—she’d be forced to leave the country and never return. And he… He had chosen Claire. Every. Single. Time. He had ignored Zoey. Let her get hurt. Rejected her. Again and again. What the hell had he done? Adrian leaned against the wall, stunned, unable to breathe. Linda finally spoke.

The duo started a competition to ruin her mood each day, and she had to end it even before they argued over who the winner was. Arial lied every day, as Cassandra called it, though she didn't want to listen to her pettish talk, but they had more facts than a lies. Who was she to blame? She trusted them both, but she got mocked for her loyalty. She ended it all before she was to be called a fool by them during one of the days. Now, it's been almost a month, and she hasn't met the mysterious guy, as she calls him. The umbrella sat lonely in the corner as her eyes darted to it on rainy days. Soon, his image and his vision left her memory as she began to live life again.

" He was tearing up, but my heart had long since turned cold. A second chance? I had already given him 99 chances, but he wasted every single one. The fact that he had once loved someone else was undeniable. Even if we got back together, it would only be a matter of time before he forgot me again. This wasn't something he could fix with a few sweet words. The moment I decided to come back, I had already made up my mind. We were done. "In your dreams!" I stared at him coldly, then turned around and got into a cab.

I stepped back. His face fell. He chucked the bouquet into the fountain. "Emma, I lied to you 99 times. This is my 99th apology." He exhaled. "Can you forgive me?" So he'd been keeping count. Maybe once, an apology might've cracked something in me. But not now. "Fine. I forgive you." My voice was ice. "Now vanish." He froze—then gave this bitter, twisted smile. Way uglier than crying. "You're playing me, huh?" He snapped. "How can you be this cold? I just used some of your research—big deal! You've got time to bounce back!

"I see it now. I was arrogant. I thought you'd never leave me, so I kept hurting you. And kept hurting you. And kept hurting you." He pushed himself up on the pillows with the last of his strength and reached for my hand. "Ada. Give me one more chance. Stay. I can't do this without you." I moved my hand out of reach. "Julian. Ninety-nine times wasn't enough? How many more chances do you need?" Julian's fingers closed on the sheet. Tears dropped onto the floor. When I turned to walk out, his mouth moved as if he wanted to say something else. But he didn't.

"Don't be silly. Back then, I proposed to you 99 times before you agreed to marry me. If we're going to divorce, we'll wait until we reach the 99th agreement. Otherwise, I'd be taking too big a loss." I froze. I stared at the man in front of me as if he were some kind of monster. Five years ago, when Gary proposed to me, I had just been accepted into an overseas study program. To make me stay, he proposed 99 times. On the 100th time, I finally gave in. His persistence moved me so much that I gave up the opportunity I had worked so hard for. I stayed and became the woman everyone envied in Starborough. Until the moment he said he would be "taking a loss," I had believed those proposals were p

I thought I was strong, I thought I could handle it, but once again, I broke down in tears, “Taylor I'm sorry it wasn't entirely my fault, why didn't you come back yesterday I waited for you and almost went crazy I…..” “Hmmm,hmmm, hmmm, you waited” I laughed “Well you don't have to wait anymore, cause this time I give up, Liam I've given up, I can't have you, it's impossible, it was impossible in the beginning I was just being delusional, I fucking give up, I don't want to do this anymore…..”

he heaved a sigh, his gray eyes darker and watery. “I did everything because I was tired. But right after I thought everything was finally good between us, I realized that it wasn’t. I was even looking forward to waking up with you in my arms, just like the old times, but who was going to prepare me for what I was about to witness? I woke up alone…because you left…like you did nine years ago,” he shut his eyes tightly, “you left Lillian, you abandoned me like you did nine years. Upon everything, I pleaded with you, I told you never to leave me again, and you told me I was the one pushing you away. I believed you because I know I never let us talk, and I told myself that I will not do that ag
