Chapter 2
“She seems really angry this time. I’ll bet on a week.”
Hansen glanced at the door, which hadn’t fully closed yet, and let out a cold smile. “She’ll come crying back in less than three days.”
“It’s been the same all these years. It’s honestly getting tiring to watch.
“That’s true. There’s no way Christine would leave you. Everyone knows how madly in love with you she is.”
I let out a self-deprecating laugh and tightened my grip on my purse as I walked to the elevator.
Back at my apartment, I went to the corner of the closet and took out the wedding dress.
I had waited six months for it, but unfortunately, I would never get the chance to wear it.
The wedding dress was custom-made, so there was no way I could refund it.
So, I simply grabbed a pair of scissors and cut it up.
After all, it would just be an eyesore for Hansen if I left it there.
Before I left, I took off my ring and put it on the coffee table.
I didn’t take much with me. Other than my personal belongings, I left everything else behind.
After a moment of thought, I left Hansen a note.
It said that he could deal with the house and everything in it as he pleased. There was no need to ask me.
I booked an early morning flight to Harbor City.
My best friend had gotten married there earlier in the year. It was the perfect excuse to visit her and clear my head.
My best friend, Linda Moore, invited me out to shop and have some afternoon tea.
In the evening, there was a small gathering with some old classmates and friends.
