I took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped away the bloodstains on Terrence’s knuckles.
“Nothing happened between me and Bradley. You shouldn’t believe the nonsense he was spouting…”
Terrence smiled and stroked my hair gently. “I know.”
It almost felt like the unwavering look in his eyes was about to swallow me whole. I could feel my ears burning. My cheeks were flushed scarlet.
Suddenly, he lifted his hands and gazed at me pitifully. “You should take responsibility since I got hurt because of you…”
I found his actions and behavior amusing. I patted his head too. “Alright. I’ll take full responsibility.”
Like a child who just received candies, Terrence beamed brightly. “My wife is the best.”
During the next few days, Terrence and I enjoyed each other’s company. It was as if we were meant for each other. We could tell what the other person was thinking with just a simple glance.

I searched for his other social media accounts. They were the same as the first account I checked. Bradley openly expressed his love and affection for me, hoping to let everyone know about his feelings.
“What a fool…” I thought.
That was my first reaction.
In my previous life, Bradley would not share anything that would hint at my presence on his social media accounts no matter how much I begged him.
He would delete the post at once if he accidentally shared something like that online. Yet, Bradley was suddenly trying to make amends now.
“How so very foolish and naive of him,” I scoffed inwardly.
