All Chapters of An Abandoned Secret Lover: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I really couldn’t stay any longer, so I made an excuse to go to the restroom.I had barely stepped out when Nathan followed me. The warmth in his eyes from before was gone, replaced by an unreadable mix of cold indifference.My eyes stung, and before I could stop them, tears started falling. I couldn’t believe it. I couldn’t accept that the man in front of me had only ever seen me as a pastime."Sienna."My heart trembled. He was calling me by my full name now.He looked at me, raising a hand as if to wipe away my tears, but I turned my face away to avoid him."I’m sorry."Just three simple words, yet they made everything between us clear.Nathan had been abroad for over a month. I had missed him so much that I couldn’t even wait until the next day, so I had rushed over excitedly to join his friends’ gathering. I never expected to uncover such a cruel truth."Sienna, I’m really sorry."I wiped my tears away in frustration. "Nathan, don’t you have anything to say to explain yo

Nathan walked in, dressed in a perfectly tailored suit. The moment he stepped through the door, his gaze immediately landed on Bianca.He took a few steps forward, about to speak, but then he noticed me sitting nearby. His steps faltered for a brief moment before he walked straight to Bianca’s side."This is for you.""Really? Let me see!" Bianca excitedly opened the exquisite gift box, revealing a stunning diamond necklace."I knew you’d like it. I specially bid for it at an auction just for you." Nathan’s eyes lingered on Bianca’s face, filled with tenderness and adoration.Unfortunately, he forgot that today was our third anniversary. Technically, we hadn’t even broken up yet.Bianca’s face lit up with joy. "It’s so stunning! Put it on for me!"Nathan smiled and carefully clasped the necklace around her neck. They stood so close together, looking like a perfect match."I love it! You’ve given me so many diamonds, but this one is the most beautiful!"A tight, suffocating fee

The dance ended, and the crowd dispersed. Elliot let go of my hand.Suddenly, Nathan grabbed my wrist. He glanced around, and seeing that no one was watching, he lowered his voice with a hint of accusation to say, "Are you really that close with Elliot? Why were you blushing while dancing with him?"I shook off his hand and refused to look at him. "What’s it to you? Ex-boyfriend."Nathan furrowed his brows tightly. "I’m just trying to warn you. Stay away from Elliot. You two don’t belong in the same world."I scoffed lightly. "I don’t know if we belong in the same world, but you and I definitely don’t. Nathan, stop interfering in my life. You’re not in a position to."Though I tried hard to keep my voice steady, my body couldn’t stop trembling. Nevertheless, I straightened my back, determined not to let him see my weakness.Nathan stared at me for a moment before sighing. "Fine, I won’t interfere. But I hope you’ll keep our past to yourself."I gave a cold laugh. So that was wha

After saying that, Elliot didn’t linger. He quickly walked to the car, settled me in the back seat, and looked me over from head to toe."Is there anywhere you're uncomfortable? Did you inhale too much water?"I shook my head. "Just a little bit, I’m fine. No need for the hospital."However, he stubbornly insisted, "No, you have to go."With that, he immediately started the car, ran through several red lights, and took me to the hospital.After the examination, everything seemed fine, but the doctor said that because the lake water had been a bit cold, I was likely to catch a cold.Elliot listened attentively and bought me a lot of cold medicine.On the way back home, I couldn’t help but ask as I watched his focused side profile while driving, "How did you end up there?""I went to find Bianca. Dad wants to set up a blind date for her.""Ah?" My mind went blank for a moment. "Isn’t she with Nathan?"Elliot coldly chuckled. "Those two will never work."While waiting for the t

When her words fell, I saw Nathan’s face immediately light up with excitement. His breathing quickened, and his eyes were full of enthusiasm. He was about to reach for Bianca’s hand when she said, "I’m going to get engaged to the heir of the Sutherland Corporation soon. Your blessings are appreciated!"Everyone except for Nathan cheered and clapped for her. His hand froze in midair, trembling slightly. His face turned pale, and there was not a hint of color.This reaction was no different from the one I had when I stood outside the gathering that day.A sense of satisfaction suddenly surged within me. Those who let others down will eventually be let down themselves. Nathan’s retribution came quickly.Elliot’s eyes quickly glanced at me. I felt his gaze but didn’t look away. I met his eyes. He paused for a moment, then a smile appeared in his gaze.However, with a sudden, intense shake, Elliot’s smile immediately turned to panic."Earthquake!"The crowd suddenly erupted into chao
