After all, I had invested a lot of time and effort into this relationship. Up until today, I had always thought Wilson and I would have something more than we already had.
I needed some personal time to fully distance myself from this betrayal.
But today was Madison’s birthday, so I put on a brave face for her.
"The cake he sent me before was really good. I never got a chance to ask where it was from.
“Well, there are plenty of cakes in the world. There’s no need to be fixated on that particular one.”
Madison said, “...You really are quite philosophical.”
My friends, who had dispersed, had apparently seen my post, but since I wasn’t checking my phone, they could only contact Madison.
Seeing Madison take a call, I suddenly had a strange premonition.
It felt like something was waiting for me later, and it wasn’t good news.
“How about I grab a cab here, and you join the others?”
Madison rolled her eyes at me. “Not a chance.”
The premonition turned out to be right.
As soon as we reached the meeting point, I looked up to see Lisa, who was linking arms with my ex and walking out of the store.
Our eyes met, and sparks flew instantly.
Lisa even tightened her grip on him, almost provocatively.
