The Break-up Quote Novels & Stories

"They'll think you're fooling everyone! That you and Penelope are both liars! That she's just a prop in your act, a joke!" "I'll make it up to her." "With money?" I scoffed. "She's been through enough. I don't want people pointing fingers at her in the future." Jethro said seriously, "Ms. Middleton, don't push me." "I'm just reminding you to keep your word and finish what you started. How is that pushing you?" My expression hardened. "Breakups are par for the course in showbiz. Wait until the dating show airs and the buzz about you and Penelope dies down. Then find the right moment to announce your split and never bring each other up again."

"I am not saying we should break off now or go for a divorce but a little break would do us good" "Okay let's take a little break"

I wait until she whispers, “OK.” “We’ve all had breakups.” I raise my voice to take in the whole room. “The answer isn’t to cry. The answer isn’t to eat chocolate or plot revenge. You need to move on. Every time I’ve had a breakup, do you know what I’ve done? I’ve taken my life in a new direction. I’ve found myself an exciting new project. I’ve changed my look. I’ve moved house. Because I’m in charge of my life, thank you.” I pound my fist in my palm. “Not some guy who can’t even do a smoky eye.”

Chapter 10 I will never love you His words kept repeating in my head. I’m back at my favourite convenience store, this time I manage to buy myself a drink without needing to show my ID. The owner doesn't ask me anything, not that I would reply. I can finally understand why Callum never spared me a glance. He has someone like Celine all this time and I was the reason why they broke up. His marriage tore them apart! I gulped a huge amount of the bitter thing, Tessa White is the most pathetic human.

"What are you saying?" "Let's break up, Jennifer"

Ian’s hands did not falter throughout, yet his tone was serious and preachy. I didn’t think this side of him existed if I wasn’t watching the footage. He was getting handsy with Roxy while lecturing me solemnly. “What’s so great about marrying into your family? Since you like Roxy so much, why don’t you make her your wife? I’m done. Listen up, Ian. I’m breaking up with you!”

he said in a tone she had not heard so far. A small girl, with delicate features, appeared through the living room door. She was wearing a ballerina tutu and I could swear she was the cutest thing she'd seen in years. James quickly dropped to his knees and the little girl came running into his arms. "You broke your promise yesterday." she said, grimacing. He laughed. "I know, honey. I just had a lot of things to do." "And that's more important than me?" she expressed remorsefully. James snorted amusedly.

"You don't mean that." "I do," he insists, but he won't meet my eyes when he says it. "We got caught up in something that was never going to work. Now it's over." "Just like that?" I ask, tears starting to blur my vision. "Two months together, and you can just turn it off like a switch?" "It's better this way," he says, finally looking at me. But his eyes are cold, distant, like he's looking at a stranger. "A Clean break, no more complications."

Orlando and I had been together for ten years. I'd looked after his sick mom, sweating out a fever of my own, and where was he? Knocking back drinks with Rosalind, playing therapist to her broken heart. I swallowed my pride at work, getting chewed out by my boss, while he spent the night companying Rosalind because she had cramps. Then, when I got the news my mom had passed, I tried calling him, desperate for support. But nope—phone off. After a wild goose chase, turns out he was at Rosalind's graduation. That was it. I gave up. But Orlando wouldn't let go. Red-eyed, he begged me for just one more chance.

I continued, "Completing this wedding that I've put so much effort into is more important to me. Did you not notice? Every wedding photographer today deliberately avoided you. I'll edit the wedding video myself." Gabriel's face darkened as he pressed his lips tightly together. His eyes drilled into me as if he wanted to see right through me. "Are you breaking up with me?" I took a deep breath and met his gaze. "I think what I said at the vows ceremony was clear enough. I don't want to be with you."
