Chapter 5
I had completely torn ties with Weston and no longer cared about the company.
It wasn’t until I went to resign that I discovered he had already transferred my shares in the
Aside from the salary I had earned over the years, I wouldn’t see a single dividend. []
Weston had been using me from the very beginning.
I should have realized earlier–he was scheming and shameless.
When I arrived home, I found my belongings scattered all over the doorstep.
They were all my things.
“Yes, move all of this out as well.”
“And these cups, throw them all away.”
Inside, I could hear Cecilia’s voice. She was directing the movers, busy packing up the house.
They had almost moved out half the things.
My clothes were thrown everywhere, some of them even with dirty footprints on them.
“Are you going too far?” |
I didn’t get angry; I just said it coldly.
Only then did she turn around and meet my gaze, her expression one of arrogance. []
company.
“I thought you wouldn’t be coming back, so I decided to clean up all this stuff,” she said dismissively. []
Then, in her high heels, she slowly walked up to me.
“Weston has already dumped you, you should understand, I’m the mistress of this house now.”
“Of course, I need to throw away all your things, right?”
“After all, I’m a neat freak. I won’t touch anything another woman has used.” []
Looking at her smug face, I suddenly understood why Weston liked her so much. []
Because they were truly cut from the same cloth.
They were both ridiculous.
“Go ahead, throw it all away. I don’t want these things anyway,” I said with a slight smile. []
I came back for only one thing.

Chapter 5
The most important thing in my life.
After saying that, I bypassed her, intending to go inside to get that one important thing. []
However, she blocked my path with her hand. []
“What do you think you’re doing? This is my house now, you don’t have the right to go in!”
I looked at her and explained, “I have something very important still inside. I’ll take it and leave.” [
With that, I walked straight into the living room. But when I saw that part of the puzzle–a hand–puzzle I had made with my mom–was already disassembled, my pent–up anger, finally exploded. [
“How dare you tear it apart!” []
This hand–puzzle had been something my mom and I put together while she was hospitalized. We spent the whole day on it.
It was the last memory of my mother’s smile that she left me.
After I moved in with Weston, I kept it in the most prominent place in the house. [
Every day I looked at it, it was like seeing my mother.
But now it was broken.
Just like the memory of my mom, shattered.
As I bent down to pick up the pieces of the puzzle, Cecilia snatched it up.
“This worthless thing, why are you so upset about it?” [
“Put it down!” [

When I saw her casually fiddling with the puzzle, my heart jumped to my throat. [
She raised an eyebrow and smiled, then let go of it right in front of me. I
With a sharp crash, the already unstable puzzle was completely shattered. []
“Oops, I slipped.”
Cecilia feigned innocence, but there was a smug smile at the corner of her lips.
As I watched the puzzle pieces break apart, the little bit of calm I had managed to gather was shattered once again. []
This hurt a hundred times more than losing Weston![]
“You bitch!”
I stood up in a frenzy, raising my
hand and slapping Cecilia hard across the face. []
The sound of the slap echoed, and her delicate face immediately bore a deep red mark. []
Chapter 5
At that moment, Weston came back. Seeing this, he rushed into the room and slapped me hard across the face.
Cecilia, too, immediately threw herself into Weston’s arms, crying out loud. [
“Weston, she hit me! My face hurts so much!” []
“I only accidentally broke the puzzle, and she hits me like this!”
“Weston, you have to stand up for me!” []
Fury rose in my chest as I gasped for breath, tears in my eyes, staring at Weston with a gaze full of hatred. [
Weston knew how much that puzzle meant to me.
Yet…
“Everlee, stop being so unreasonable!” [
“Just over a hand–puzzle, you’re really going to hit someone?!”
“Apologize to Cecilia right now!“[]
