The editor-in-chief could only help by negotiating a hefty severance package.
As much as I fumed, I knew I couldn’t go up against the powerful Hale family. How could I even think of revenge?
Why does Ryan insist on cheating, yet still want to stay with me?
When I first started dating him, he would often take me to places I couldn’t afford. I gently mentioned it to him, but he would pout and carefully cut my steak, muttering softly, “I just want my self to get used to my world ahead of time.”
Back then, I felt guilty yet happy. But looking back now, it was just him showing off his superiority to me time and time again. Thanks to my study guides, Ryan, who used to skip classes and go racing, could still pass his final exams. Using my guilt and love, he had no trouble getting his name added as the project leader and winning scholarships. I was just a source of blood for him to drain.
Suddenly, it all became clear. Ryan kept chasing after me because I still had some value to him. I wasn’t sure what it was, but what he sought from me wasn’t small.
I was feeling a headache. Not only did I have to protect myself, but I also had to figure out how to bring Ryan and his family down.
