Ended My Six-Year Relationship with a CheaterChapter 1

When Landon and his so-called distant cousin fed each other wine mouth-to-mouth, my stomach churned so violently that I nearly coughed up blood.

Gasps filled the room, and my face went pale as paper, but he seemed completely unfazed, almost leaning in for a full kiss in front of everyone.

The day I was discharged from the hospital, Landon came to pick me up. A bright bouquet of roses lay on the passenger seat, looking painfully out of place. I reached to move them, but he frowned, grabbing the roses first.

“They’re not for you. Sit in the back.”

Silently, I settled into the back seat. A few minutes into the drive, my phone rang—a call from the jewelry store.

"Mr. Wright, the ring you ordered has arrived. You can pick it up anytime."

Without a glance back at me, Landon took a sharp turn toward the store. Well, I thought, it’s about time to return that engagement ring.

The car stopped outside the shop, and Landon strode inside with a spring in his step.

The clerk approached Landon, presenting a red velvet box with both hands. He opened it with a smile, revealing a sparkling gemstone far more stunning than our engagement ring.
