However, Quinn suddenly told me she wanted to marry me a week later. Instead of feeling any joy, I was filled with doubt. "You want to marry me? What about Mason? Can you really dump him?"Quinn smiled. "Kyle, I'll stop seeing Mason."‘Was she severing ties with Mason? If that was true, would I accept Quinn?’ I wondered. I had my doubts. I thought she genuinely broke up with Mason to love me wholeheartedly. However, what she said next nearly killed me.Quinn explained, "I just found out that I'm pregnant with Mason's baby yesterday, so I signed an agreement with him that we'll stop seeing each other. The condition is that I will raise the baby and return the child to Mason when they’ve grown up. After we get married, I'll be yours, and the baby will be Mason's. I think this is fair for both of you. It's the biggest concession I can make for you."Quinn's true idea was bizarre. She wanted me to take on the responsibility after all of the trouble.It was ridiculous that she spoke
Since she treated me this way, why should I continue helping her? I immediately called the butler and told him to stop helping Quinn.I wanted to see how long Quinn could hold on. She had always thought she was excellent, and at the same time, looked down on me. If she was excellent, could she sustain the Lucas family's business without my family's help?Not long after Quinn left, I saw that she had updated her social media. Whenever she updated her social media, I would instantly receive a notification. I set her as a favorite and had never canceled it, but it was now time to cancel. She posted a photo of two hands holding each other on social media.The caption read: [Life is filled with sunshine when you're around. I give you all of me now.] Soon, I saw Mason's comment below.Mason: [If you never leave me, I'll stay with you through life and death.] I smiled when I saw this, knowing that Quinn deliberately wanted me to see it. However, it did not bother me. Even if she m
After Quinn scared my girlfriend away, I quickly explained everything to my girlfriend. I also found a lot of evidence to show that Quinn was the one who betrayed me. She chose to forgive me, and our relationship grew rapidly after this incident. Soon, my girlfriend and I were planning to get married.On the other hand, I called the butler. I instructed him not to hold back and bankrupt the Lucas family this time. The butler informed me that they would take a week to do that.When my girlfriend and I were holding our wedding a week later, Quinn called me, "Kyle, I know you're still single. Without me, you will never be able to get a wife. I'll give you a chance today. Come and pick me up, and I'll marry you. What do you think?"Quinn had repeatedly harassed me, and I had endured her humiliation of me. However, I decided to humiliate her at my wedding. I asked, "Quinn, are you sure?"Quinn replied, "Of course. I've already given birth to Mason's baby, so now I'm free. I heard you're
It was Mason's voice. I remembered it clearly. I did not expect Quinn's life to turn out like this—she had to endure Mason's abuse every day. I could only lament silently that Quinn had chosen the wrong guy. Forget it. I should leave them alone. Everyone had their own fate, and no one could change that. After marrying my girlfriend, life was great. When she became pregnant, I took care of her meticulously. I accompanied her to the hospital for her prenatal checkup. I unexpectedly ran into Quinn there and was shocked to see her—she was pale and gaunt. Her expression was dull, and she had a large belly. We had not met in just one short year, yet this was what she had become. When I saw her enter the abortion room, I felt bad. I could not believe she had ended up like this—coming here alone to get an abortion. No one was with her, and she looked pitiful.I thought of walking over to help her but then stopped myself—afraid she might pester me again. After returning from th
Quinn Lucas and I were in a relationship for five years, and life was exceptionally tough for us during these five years. We lived in a basement and survived on countless meals bought from roadside stalls. Despite all the hardships she endured while with me, she never complained. She said she would be happy as long as I was around. We were happy back then. Life felt like a fairytale.I stayed by her side as she started as an entry-level employee and quickly became the president of the family company. She told me she would not have become the president without my silent support. Those words made me teary-eyed, as she recognized my efforts.I did not even tell her that sheer hard work alone during these five years was not enough for her to secure the president position. She needed connections more than that. Every time she successfully landed an important contract, it was because I pulled some strings. However, I never told her this as I felt that telling her the truth would be disresp
I answered, "I didn't hear you."She explained, "My secretary called. It's so annoying to have to discuss work this late."I chuckled inwardly. Ever since Quinn became the president, I lost count of how many times she had lied to me. I had not exposed her because I did not want our relationship to be tense. I threw the engagement ring into the trash. Even though I was heartbroken, I had to continue smiling when I saw her. I did not want her to sense something was amiss.All because I loved her—five years ago, and even now.I had no idea if our relationship could continue like this. It should have been a wonderful night, but I was upset. Watching Quinn sound asleep, I was incredibly conflicted. I lit a cigarette as I endured the long painful night without even feeling an ounce of sleepiness. Today was our fifth anniversary. I regretted not proposing yesterday because I was not in the mood. My impulsiveness got in the way of my happily ever after just because I heard some upsettin
Ever since I saw the man named Mason in the room, my heart had been restless.I had tolerated everything else in the past five years. Even if she flirted with others behind my back, I would turn a blind eye and pretend not to see it as long as she stayed within the boundaries. However, I could not stand it this time. Sleeping with someone else behind my back was something I could not tolerate. I was her boyfriend. I was a man with my own dignity.I turned around and left after I finished speaking.Mason's voice rang out behind me. "Quinn, is he really breaking up with you?"Quinn answered, "How is that possible? He just can’t think straight for a moment. Don't worry. He'll be back simping over me in no time."As the sound of the door closing echoed behind me, I gave up. I decided not to love her anymore at that moment. I had loved Quinn for five years, yet ended up becoming a tool.It was not until very late that Quinn came home. As soon as she walked through the door, she asked,

Elaine's words moved me, but my feelings were complicated. Elaine was not Quinn. If Quinn loved me enough to marry me, I would consider forgiving everything she had done. Unfortunately...I left Elaine's house after dinner. As soon as I stepped outside, my phone vibrated. I checked it to see a friend request notification. The profile picture seemed to be Mason. I accepted the friend request, as I was curious to find out what he wanted.Mason: [Kyle Zigger, I think you should give up on Quinn. She doesn't love you. Let me send you some photos so you can see who she truly loves.]I received the photos he sent. In a hotel room, Mason was shirtless, while Quinn was beneath him.Mason: [I wonder what you feel seeing the photos. I still remember that you bought the condoms that day. Believe it or know, if you don't let Quinn go, I'll make sure she gets pregnant with my baby.]Letting go of Quinn was something only I could decide. I would not allow anyone else to threaten me into it. If
