All Chapters of Shallow Love: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

A thick ledger was thrown in front of me. Each page recorded the money Liam Sommer had transferred to me over the past ten years. Even the time of each transaction was recorded.Liam said, "On your birthday last year, I transferred 8,100 dollars to you. On our tenth anniversary, I transferred 108,000 dollars to you, and at the beginning of every month, I transferred 20,000 dollars to you for your living expenses. You must pay me back by the end of today. Each transfer has been recorded with the transaction time, so you can compare and check for yourself."..."What's wrong? You can't afford to repay me? Evelyn Lancaster, you shouldn't have given Christy trouble. This is my lesson to you. If you don't pay me back today, let's not meet for the next three years, and don't come looking for me." Liam's cold and resolute words echoed in my ears. He said that to get justice for his precious stepsister, Christine Sommer. This was because, yesterday, I had recovered the 300,000 dollars I had

When I woke up in the morning, Liam had already moved out with his stuff.Half the house was suddenly empty, and I could not get used to it.After finishing breakfast, I planned to visit my father at the hospital.After a full day and night of persistence, my father was finally admitted to the intensive care unit. All I could do was look at his frail face through the glass.A man said, "When his condition stabilizes, he can be transferred to a regular ward. After that, he can continue chemotherapy."Not knowing how to respond, I only replied, "Thank you."A warm hand landed gently on the top of my head. Before I could react, I found myself looking into a pair of deep, familiar eyes.The man comforted me, saying, "Don't worry. Mr. Lancaster will be fine. Even though it's terminal stomach cancer, there's still a 30% to 50% chance of recovery. You need to have faith in him and in the doctors."Strangely, I felt a sense of security.I took the elevator downstairs and ran into Chri

The day my father was transferred, Southernville's sky was particularly blue.After watching my father finish his lunch, I began searching for a house and moving things with full motivation.It was weird. I had never been to Southernville, but the city seemed tolerant of me. In less than an hour, I found the house I wanted. Besides that, it was cheap and in a good location.My father's condition quickly improved, and he could even talk to me for half a day. It made me look forward to the new life and become more motivated.Looking at my father's tortured body, my eyes reddened. I chose my university in Oceania for Liam, regardless of my parents' feelings. My parents had no choice but to sell their home and move with me to Oceania, which was 400 kilometers away.Who would have thought that life would become more and more unsatisfying with each passing year after arriving in Oceania?Even after my mother died, she had to travel 400 kilometers to her hometown and return to her roots

Liam also texted me today.Liam: [Still asleep? Did you see the messages I sent you? Why won't you answer me?]He also texted the day after tomorrow. Liam: [Did you water my flowers at home?]Half a month later, he also texted me.Liam: [Evelyn, that’s enough. I asked you to reflect on your mistake. It's alright if you don't recognize your mistake, but how dare you get angry with me and deliberately not respond to my messages?!]I smiled wryly, thinking, 'Liam, why don't you get it? I’ve already broken up with you.'With a swipe of my finger, I blocked Liam.Hearing my father calling me, I looked up into Andrew's smiling face.My father said, "Before her mother died, her biggest wish was to see Evie get what she wanted and not be let down by the people she loved. Evie kept it a secret from me, but I knew Liam was unreliable!"Tears welled up in my eyes. Since my father got sick, I had not talked to him about me and Liam. I pretended to smile and look happy in front of my fat

What was he confused about?"Evelyn, are you kidding me? Didn't you say you only wanted to marry me?" Liam asked.I indifferently responded to his angry questioning. "Yes, I wanted to marry you very much in the past, but what did you do?"Liam fell into a trance again. Was he thinking about our earlier days?During university, he was being lovey-dovey with me while enjoying flirting with Christine. When my mother died, his mind was so preoccupied with Christine that he would not even give me a promise. When Christine came back, he left me and got together with Christine without a second thought. Now that he was tired of Christine, he thought about me.However, why should I put up with all this and wait for him?Liam lost heart. "You and him... When did this happen?"I told him the truth. "Two years ago. We got together two years ago. While you took Christine around the world, we got married in front of our family and friends. While you and Christine were walking along the beach
