Heather looked at Tyrone determinedly with her teary eyes.She was serious!Tyrone blinked and sneered coldly, "Heather, what makes you think you have the right to break up with me?"Heather lowered her gaze. She sounded calm as she said, "I know I owe you a lot. You can say I'm ungrateful and heartless. But I don't want to continue to be your plaything."In fact, "breaking up" was not the right term. The term was used for couples, but their relationship had been complicated. It was more apt to say they were "parting ways". Tyrone narrowed his eyes. "Are you saying I treated you like a plaything?""Isn't that true?" Heather voice sounded contemptuous as she posed the rhetoric question.Tyrone was always self-centered. He treated her nicely when he was in a good mood and got angry when things didn't go his way.He did whatever he wanted to do to her without considering her feelings. He trampled on her dignity and humiliated her. Wasn't that treating her like a plaything?Tyron
"No, I'm not." Heather gently shook her head.Caleb still believed in Heather's character. He breathed a sigh of relief. "I warned you before not to ever let Mr. Elkin find out about your past relationship with Craig. "It's not entirely his fault for getting so angry today. Mr. Elkin cares deeply for you. He knew you and Craig had come here, so he left work and rushed back to the country overnight. "Seeing you and Craig just now, who wouldn't misunderstand? Hurry back and plead with him. Try to explain it to him, and don't cause any more trouble.""Mr. Hall, Tyrone and I have already broken up."Caleb was dumbfounded."I'm leaving. Goodbye." Heather smiled lightly and walked toward the door as she endured the pain.Caleb watched her retreating figure in shock. Had they broken up?At that moment, footsteps descended from upstairs.Caleb turned around to see Tyrone coming down the stairs, looking unusually terrifying. His gloomy face sent chills down his spine, and there were
On the hospital bed, Craig was looking at Heather.Heather quickly said, "You're awake. The doctor said you have a broken rib, and the facilities here are not great. I've informed Jay. He will come to take you back soon. Just bear with it for now."Craig nodded lightly. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly noticed the bruises on Heather's wrist. His gaze sharpened instantly.Heather paused for a moment. She followed his gaze to her wrist and subconsciously pulled her hand back.The shirt she borrowed from the landlord was too short. It didn't cover the marks on her wrist.Seeing that Heather had borrowed someone else's clothes and had bruises on her wrist, it didn't take much for one to guess what had happened."He dared do that to you?" Craig's voice was cold.Taken aback, Heather frowned. "You shouldn't have said those things to Tyrone today.""I couldn't stand to see him treat you like that."In the past, he believed she was safer by Tyrone's side, but he never expect
With such deep marks, how could it not hurt?Ivy was furious. "Did Tyrone abuse you? Who does he think he is to treat you like this? I'm going to find him! Seth, let's go to Magnolia Creek!""We can't go!" Heather quickly held her back.Ivy's beautiful face looked angry. "Hattie, you don't need to fear him. With me there, I dare him to lay a hand on you!""Please calm down first!"Seth dared not let her actually go and cause trouble with Tyrone, so he looked at Heather with a frown. "Hattie, what happened between you and Tyrone?"Since Heather had called Ivy instead of Tyrone after she'd arrived at the airport, it evident that she'd had a falling out with Tyrone.Sighing, Seth tried to mediate. "Tyrone dotes on you. No matter what mistake you've made, apologize to him nicely. He won't really be mad at you—""I broke up with Tyrone."Seth almost bit his tongue, looking bewildered. "You broke up with him? Did Tyrone dump you?"It couldn't be. Wasn't Tyrone infatuated with Heath
Heather hadn't terminated the rental contract of her previous apartment. So, Seth took her home, and Ivy, who'd taken a break from filming these days, stayed behind to take care of her.In the evening, after Heather had finished showering, she lay down on her familiar small bed, feeling strange and disoriented."Hattie, do you really not need to go to the hospital for your injuries?" Ivy looked at Heather's foot with concern."There's no need. When we were in town, Tyrone had the doctor treat me. It's not serious; I just need to rest for a few days," Heather replied.Ivy's eyes shimmered as she sat down on the bed, looking at Heather intently. "Hattie, are you really going to break up with Tyrone?"Heather was taken aback for a moment. She couldn't help but find it amusing. "This isn't a joke. Is there such a thing as a fake breakup?""But I feel like Tyrone is really good to you. If he got so angry when he found out about your relationship with Craig, he must be jealous! Hattie,
A deafening crash sounded from upstair.Both Lucy and Caleb were startled, and they quickly ran upstairs.They saw Tyrone standing inside the master bedroom, looking particularly menacing. His clenched fist oozed blood, and his breathing was slightly ragged.Heather's belongings were scattered all over the floor."Oh my, Mr. Elkin, your hand is injured!" Lucy hurried into the room, opening a drawer and taking out the first aid kit. "I remember Ms. Sutton also has one in her room..."Before she could finish her sentence, Lucy suddenly felt the terrifying chill. Her heart skipped a beat. As she turned her head, she saw Tyrone staring at her with a horrifying gaze, sending shivers down her spine.Tyrone had said he didn't want to hear Heather's name!Although Lucy had seen Tyrone and Heather fight before, it had never been this bad. Feeling anxious, she said, "Mr. Elkin, your hand is injured. Let me treat the wound for you first."As if ignoring her, Tyrone turned to Caleb with a
The thought of running into Tyrone upon returning made Heather inexplicably nervous.Not wanting to bump into him, she thought for a moment and then called Lucy, asking her to help pack her luggage."Ms. Sutton, I am unwell and have taken a few days off to rest at home. I'm not at Magnolia Creek these days, so I apologize that I can't help you pack your luggage," Lucy said.Heather was surprised. "Is your illness serious?""Oh, it's not serious. Thank you for your concern, Ms. Sutton."After a pause, Lucy decided to give Heather a heads-up. "Ms. Sutton, you had such a big argument with Mr. Elkin this time. When you come back, have a talk with him. Clear up any misunderstandings between the two of you. You really made Mr. Elkin angry this time, and it's not good for you."After a moment of silence, Heather whispered, "Lucy, thank you for your concern. Take care of yourself and get well soon. I'll hang up now."With that, she hung up the phone, feeling a bit dejected.Lucy was si
Tyrone narrowed his eyes and smirked. "I stopped Snyder Corporation's project, and now she can't stand it anymore. She purposely wanted you to inform me!"Caleb was confused. He didn't think Heather meant that. Just now, she hadn't mentioned Tyrone at all. Moreover, she'd specifically chosen to go to Magnolia Creek on a weekday morning. Wasn't that to purposely avoid bumping into Tyrone?Caleb really wanted to tell Tyrone that he was overthinking a bit too much. But seeing Tyrone's mood improve slightly for the first time after a few days, Caleb didn't dare to offend him at this moment. He could only agree, saying, "Ms. Sutton definitely meant that.""Of course she did!"The chilling air surrounding Tyrone dissipated slightly. He casually pushed aside the documents and stretched out on the couch. A glint of darkness flashed in his eyes.The Snyder family still relied on her. Only he could give her support, so she had to come back to him. He wanted to see what that woman would
