I admitted that I was very busy when I first started my business and was always talking about work, which gave Mike the cold shoulder. However, I had never forgotten any of our anniversaries, I also spent almost all of my time with him whenever I had time.

But in his eyes, I was just a workaholic who didn't care about him at all, so that I was not even as good as Camilla's finger.

“The gift she gave you came from my work. The time she spent with you was earned by my crazy work," I couldn’t help but explain in an angry tone.

Mike frowned and looked at me as he said, “So what? No matter what you say now won't change my mind. Camilla is a thousand times, no, ten thousand times better than you."

I sneered in my heart, I would like to see how your Camilla could help you with the core project without me.

Then, I signed the resignation contract and walked away under Camilla's smug gaze.

But before leaving, I could still hear what Camilla said, “Baby, why did you make her angry and leave? You know, I can't tell my family about this."

Then, Mike replied, “Don’t worry, just tell me if they dare to make things difficult for you."

You two bastards, damn it!

 

 

On the way back, I was getting more and more angry the more I thought about it.

In the past, I was really blinded by so-called love, so I gave him whatever he wanted. But in the end, it benefited others.

When I got home, my parents had already learned from Camilla that I had been fired, so they were not in a good mood.

“Katherine, we know that you've never been as likable as Camilla since you were young. But how can you not even compare to her at work now?

"We really don't know what's the point of us taking you to college, if you act like this, Katherine. Start from now, since you are not working at that company anymore, don't be so stern when the relatives are coming, do you understand? 

“You better go and beg Camilla now, so maybe she will give you a small clerk position. We think it’s better than nothing."

If today wasn’t New Year’s Eve, I would definitely not return to that dilapidated home. But no matter how unwilling I was, I still had to face it in the future, so it was that time or never.

However, what I didn’t expect was that Mike was there too.

Camilla brought Mike to their seat, while I sat on the sofa, entertaining them with a fake smile.
