One was my closest friend. The other, the woman I had loved most.
I had always treated them well, but how could I have imagined they’d been fooling around behind my back all along?
My eyes, bloodshot, locked onto Bianca.
“Give me an explanation. When did I sign any equity transfer agreement?”
At first, she acted shy, staying silent, until Landon reached out and teased her thigh.
“Darling, you need to say it; don't avoid this. If you do it well, I’ll give you a good time in bed tonight.”
The moment he said that, Bianca threw herself into his arms.
“You promise!”
Then she stood and looked at me. The mocking look in her eyes, I knew I would never forget it, not even in death.
It felt as though someone had gripped my heart and squeezed until I couldn’t breathe.
That’s when I noticed her collar was tugged low and her neck was marked with blatant love bites.
It was clear just how wild they had been last night to leave such a trail.
I gripped the wheelchair’s armrest so tightly that my nails pierced into my palm, but it still didn’t hurt as much as my heart did.
In front of me, Bianca had always been reserved, shy, never daring to let go.
Every time we made love, she would close her eyes with embarrassment.
Just moments ago, she had dared to flirt openly with Landon in front of everyone.
Clearly, she had been pretending all along.
Bianca sashayed her hips and walked flirtatiously behind me, placing both hands on the back of my wheelchair, laughing with arrogance.
“Did you forget? A few days ago, I brought you a contract, saying it was for buying a house and asked you to sign it.”
“You didn’t even look at it; you just signed your name.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she burst out laughing triumphantly.
That’s when it hit me; she really brought me a contract a few days ago.
Back then, I had adored and trusted her so much that I never even imagined she’d deceive me.
I grabbed her wrist, eyes blazing with fury and questioned her, “Bianca, can you really justify doing this to me?”
To my surprise, she flung my hand away in disgust and even took out a tissue to wipe the spot I had touched.
After wiping, she tossed the tissue onto me.
“You have only yourself to blame for being stupid enough to fall in love with me. The one I love now is Landon.”
“He’s always lived in your shadow, always one step below you. He’s waited a long time for this day.”
