The line was busy.

It was clear she’d blocked his number.

John had no choice but to switch to a backup phone and try again.

This time, she picked up quickly,

“Hello, who is-”

“Lily, how long are you going to keep this up?”

Lily had answered with basic courtesy, but the second she heard John’s voice, her expression turned frosty. and her eyes lit up with sharp disdain.

Her voice carried none of the softness he once knew, only coldness and annoyance. “John, that should be

my my question. How long are you going to keep this up? We broke up. I really, really don’t want you life anymore.”

“Broke up?” John let out a mocking laugh. “Don’t tell me you’re still going with that I’m married‘ lie. Lily, this kind of trick is pointless. It doesn’t make me worry about you. It just makes you look ridiculous.”

Seriously?

Lily felt exhausted just trying to communicate with him.

Still, if it meant he’d finally leave her alone, she forced herself to stay calm. “I’m not lying. I really am married. I’m doing just fine. Your constant interference is disgusting.”

“John, can’t we just part ways peacefully? Every time you reach out, it makes me regret ever falling for you.”

You made me feel tainted.

John’s fingers clenched tight, his grip threatening to crush his phone.

Bloodshot eyes filled with rage and despair. He looked like a trapped animal on the edge.

I really hate when she tries to push my buttons.

But the truth is, I miss her. I ache for her.

And yes, I had hurt her, Badly. I knew it.

So he softened his tone, hoping to win her back.

“Lily, I’m outside the office right now. I came over before seven. I’ve been waiting for you. I know I was misled by what was online yesterday. I assumed the worst of you. I didn’t give you the trust you deserved. I know that hurt you. But I regret it. Deeply. Once we get married, I’ll treat you right. I’ll love you, protect you. I won’t let you suffer again. Can you come here now? Bring your ID. Please?”

Lily blinked in surprise.

Is he really at the office?

The old Lily would’ve been over the moon.

Back then, I loved John so much I would’ve given up everything–my pride, my boundaries, even myself. One word from him, and I’d pour my whole heart out like an offering.

But what did I get in return?

Even when I loved him with everything I had, he still cheated on me with Elsa.

He said he wouldn’t let me suffer?

If I went back to him, all I’d get is pain. Again and again.

“Lily, where are you? I can come pick you up. Just tell me the address.”

He waited in silence for her answer. Thinking her silence meant she was softening, he kept coaxing her. voice sweet and low. “After we register, let’s go do a photo shoot too. Maybe book a honeymoon suite-

“John.”

Lily cut in.

Her tone didn’t match the joy he was expecting. It was cold. Cutting.

“You say you’ll protect me. Love me. Never let me feel wronged again. But I hate Elsa. Can you cut her off for good? Can you stop seeing her, stop caring about her, stop thinking about her? Can you promise not to hold her, not to kiss her, not to let her sit in your lap? Can you make her disappear from your life entirely?”

“Lily…”

John frowned.

Her sarcasm was grating. I hated that tone.

But he held it in.

Today is supposed to be a happy day. I don’t want to fight.

He was about to explain that nothing happened with Elsa, that she didn’t have much time left and he just wanted to be there for her a little longer–when Lily laughed coldly.
