People who didn’t know the truth flooded my account. They cursed me freely and even dug up my past. They called me a walking disaster, saying anyone who got close to me would meet a terrible end. Some even urged her to escape me as soon as possible. Meanwhile, she played the role of the heartbroken woman. She said no matter what I became, as long as I was willing to come back, she would wait for me.

On our wedding day, my fiancée and brother died in a tragic crash, and the shock left my mother completely bedridden. Everyone blamed me, saying I brought misfortune and death to everyone around me. However, I didn't even have time to grieve. I worked myself to the bone, hauling concrete at construction sites by day and delivering food by night, just to afford my mother's medical bills. Then came the day I took a side job wearing a mascot suit for a grand opening event. One employee mentioned, "Our boss is super rich and handsome, and his wife is so sweet. Their family is so loving.

Amira and Nathan again, entangled in a bed that wasn’t theirs, half-naked and smiling as if they belonged together. He scrolled, refusing to believe what he was seeing. Until emails popped up, screenshots of exchanges between her account and Nathan’s. Nathan: ‘We’ll get him where it hurts.’ Amira: ‘He’ll never see it coming.’ Nathan: ‘Just keep stringing him along, and soon DE VITALIO INDUSTRIES is ours.’ And then the one that broke him: Amira: ‘Tonight, I’ll tell him how much I love him and want us to be together forever but the arrogant fool will never know it’s a lie.’

"But afterward, Celia told others she broke Jessica's watch on purpose, just for the fun of it. She said Jess had no family left, so what could she do about it anyway?" Mr. Sanders said.

I'm sorry, Alpha…" Ruby went completely pale. She looked at Caleb, but he was staring at her with nothing but hatred. "Do you have nothing else to say?" he asked.

I said. "Was there nothing to write?" he asked. The question was carefully quiet. "Nothing else was important, " I said. We stood there for a moment not saying anything. Then Elias stepped closer, not too close but close enough that I had to pay attention. "Hesitation gets people killed, " he said quietly. The words should have sounded strong and certain but they did not because I had not hesitated. I had chosen. "There was no hesitation, " I said. Another lie.

“Love, So it's possible to fix all this without having to lose the company; I couldn't do that; it's my parents' only legacy.” “You are wrong, my Ximena; the only legacy of your parents is you and the sister you always talk about, but you never introduce her to me.” “It just so happens that Emily always has to leave when you are going to arrive, or vice versa; it's very funny.” The next morning, when we were getting ready, Angelo turned on the TV.

Though he was extremely reluctant to tell her the truth, he ultimately replied, “…He… didn’t lie…” “You…! You’re lying!

You’re just lying since you don’t want the media to pick up on the truth, right?!” retorted the desperate woman.

“So I misunderstood that this guy is your friend. And I misunderstood that you guys are engaged and want to get married. And I'm sure I got it wrong, too, that you were just lying to me the whole time.” She held up her hands in a soothing manner. "I didn't lie to you..." "No, you didn't," he interrupted, his tone now caustic. 'You just kept a few things secret, that's something else entirely, of course. A little secret here, a little swindle there—none of that bad.” “Let me at least explain how it happened,” she pleaded desperately. "Well, I'm really looking forward to it.

Then: “I owe you an apology that is probably ten years too late.” The room became completely still.
