Chapter 1

I turned my phone off, and my grip on the exchange program form tightened.It crumpled as a result.Meanwhile, my classmates continued their discussion, “Wow, Jack really knows how handsome and capable he is. I heard that dating agencies are recruiting him!”“Well, that’s not surprising. He just returned from his studies overseas. He has a car and a house… He’s the whole package!”“Quick, look at Professor Swift’s eyes! He’s looking at Jack as if he’s his future son-in-law!” My classmates kept praising Jack Anderson, and Liam Swift, the professor standing behind the podium, was smiling ear to ear. He then concluded in satisfaction, “That’s good. You’re my best student, and you have a clear plan for your future, Jack.“God will definitely bless your marriage to—”“Wait!” I suddenly voiced out. Standing up before the entire class, I stared directly at Jack and smiled coldly. “Jack, what a coincidence. We have the same ideal type. “Fortunately for me, I’ve found my girlfri

I immediately clicked on the link. As expected, someone had posted the incident that happened during the class earlier. People were arguing in the comments. [Isn’t Cindy the lead cheerleader? It’s obvious who he’s referring to.][I remember that Cindy has a boyfriend. Isn’t this basically asking her to cheat? Who cares if he studied overseas?][Wait a minute. Why do I recall someone else getting the exchange program slot instead of Jack? Let me look into it…]I gripped my phone as I narrowed my eyes. Something felt off in class earlier. Since I was applying for the exchange program, I had been talking to many seniors who had participated in it before. I had never heard of Jack. So, was he lying?While my thoughts wandered, the comment section exploded under the post. Then, there was a new comment. It was from Jack. [I just returned to the country, and now, I’m on the campus forum. Looks like I’m just that attractive.[But everyone, please don’t simply accuse me

Chapter 3

After that, I switched off my phone resolutely. The next day, I switched my phone back on, and there were a dozen missed calls from Cindy. It was obvious that she was anxious.[Ben, hear me out. I really didn’t know Jack was fighting with you…[I only cut that steak for him because my dad asked me to. Please don’t be angry with me over such trivial matters…]Trivial?I laughed angrily. Throughout our entire relationship, Cindy had never done something like that for me. During our three-year relationship, I had been the one who accommodated her. I had been the only one putting in effort. I did not want to do that anymore!When I looked down, my phone started ringing again. It was a video call from Cindy. I answered it, and her nervous voice came through. “Ben, didn’t we agree to travel abroad today?“We’ve been together for so long. We’re used to each other’s presence. How can we…” Then, I saw a figure running toward me—it was Cindy holding her phone. I felt

On Saturday afternoon, I sat in the corner of the cafe. Half an hour later, Jack walked in with his styled hair and strong cologne. He was wearing a tailored suit and expensive shoes. Then, he sat down casually. Just as I smelled his cologne, I also saw Liam sneaking in. He was tidying Cindy’s dress for her. “Cindy, let’s try to find out Jack’s financial situation. Let’s see how rich he is!“Maybe after he meets a few more girls, he’ll still think that you’re the best!”Cindy appeared torn when she heard her father’s ridiculous statements. “Dad, could you stop meddling in my business…?”Even though she was grumbling, she did not attempt to leave. I observed the scene before me and no longer felt anything. I wanted to end things for good. Maybe I would even be their wedding officiant!Suddenly, someone spilled hot coffee all over Jack. He immediately took off his jacket. A rich woman with delicate makeup and a strong aura grimaced and started to touch him. “O

Chapter 5

The romantic atmosphere disintegrated, and Jack’s cologne still smelled absolutely awful. Cindy rubbed her nose awkwardly.“Ben, I’m running some errands with my dad today. I—”“What errand?” I said and walked out of the corner. With one hand in my pocket, I walked toward Cindy. It was instantly silent. Cindy looked at Jack and then at me. Her face was extremely red. After a long while, I ignored her desperate gaze and sneered at Jack. “Congratulations! Now, this beauty is yours. I’m an outsider now…” Then, a sharp voice suddenly rang out.“That’s right! You’re useless here. You should’ve broken up with Cindy a long time ago!”Liam walked over as he glared at me. “Ben, how much longer are you going to keep Cindy to yourself?“I’m the one who asked her to come over today. Otherwise, with her personality, she would’ve been manipulated by you!“Why does she have to accompany you for the exchange program? She has her own life!”He sounded extremely smug, as though he

Chapter 6

“Shut up! You’re so noisy!”Jack seemed a little lost and anxious. He did not care to answer Liam properly. Instead, he grabbed the rich woman by the collar. “Why did you look into my background and expose my private matters like this? Do you know you’re preventing me from getting to know other beautiful, rich women?”“Get lost! I’m disgusted by a swindler like you!” The woman’s bodyguard pushed Jack aside with a loud smack. He stumbled backward and hit his waist against the corner of the table as a result. The wine glasses fell onto the floor and smashed into pieces. The atmosphere was tense, and the situation became messy after a while. I was staring intently at Jack as I smirked. His change of attitude was very obvious. He tried to seduce Cindy at first, but he was beginning to appear flustered and agitated. He was worried that he would not be able to swindle other rich women in the future…However, some people were blinded to his antics. As expected, Liam acted a

Chapter 7

After that, I immediately left the cafe. I could hear the ambulance sirens as they took Liam to the hospital. Cindy got into the ambulance in a daze.Then, she started to frantically make calls and inquire about the application process. After everyone left the cafe, there was a new post on the campus forum. [Have you heard? Professor Swift from that elective class got seriously injured by his favorite student. He ended up in the hospital!][Oh, that professor. I heard he’d always slack off during his class. He’d delegate a lot of his tasks to his students!][That’s right, but he’s lucky to have a very good assistant… I believe it’s his daughter’s boyfriend?][I recall them breaking up. Didn’t Jack say that he’s into Cindy?] Comments kept popping up under the post. I took a glance and felt bored. Just as I was about to slide my phone into my pocket, Cindy called me. She sounded extremely anxious, so much so that she was crying. “Ben, my dad’s in the emergency room.

Chapter 8

My parents did not ask many questions about my breakup. Instead, they were very supportive. After they picked me up from the train station, they comforted me the whole journey home. “Ben, it’s alright. You’re still young. You’ll find a better woman in the future!”“That’s right, it’s fine to be a little hurt over relationships. Come and work with me! Our family business depends on you!”I was surrounded by warmth as I smiled in relief. The anger from when I first broke up with Cindy had dissipated. After I peeled myself away from my past emotions, I realized how much of myself I had given to Cindy and Liam. I had no boundaries, and they kept taking from me. When Liam treated me poorly, I only thought about appeasing him. It was good that this draining relationship had ended. Once I returned home, I quickly went into the family business. While reading through the documents, I set a plan for my future. It was at this time that I realized I was far more capable than

Chapter 9

My friend left without a word. I slid my hands into my pockets and stared at her quietly. A while back, I had been alone in a restaurant around this area…I had waited for Cindy to show up and wish me a happy birthday. However, reality hurt me. Liam made things difficult for me, Jack taunted me, and Cindy was indecisive… They all pushed me into an emotional abyss. At my worst, someone I thought would be with me forever chose someone else. However, I had recovered from that. I no longer needed to jump into this whirlpool and face a difficult future father-in-law. My life was getting better, and I was moving forward. I really did not want to return to my past pathetic self. I took a deep breath and looked up coldly. Cindy truly looked a lot more tired than before. She had lost a lot of weight, and her forehead was covered in cold sweat from nervousness. I stared at her and found myself saying, “Does your dad know that you’re here to see me?“I haven’t forgotte

Chapter 10

Cindy almost went crazy from Jack’s relentless pursuit. I also heard from others that Jack was acting this way because he had turned into a complete joke after the truth was revealed. Just when I thought Jack would continue pursuing Cindy, I saw a figure that I had not seen for a long time. Liam showed up outside of the library with a bandage on his forehead. Cindy was also taken aback as she stood before me with a flushed face. She could not fling Jack’s hand away. Seeing this, Liam rushed forward to slap Jack. “How shameless are you? How dare you pester my daughter?“Thanks to you, Cindy’s life is horrible now. How dare you continue to pester her?”Liam was furious, and his eyes were filled with hatred. He hated Jack, who had played him very badly. The next second, he started to fight Jack and fiercely said, “Don’t you ever come here and pester my daughter! Otherwise, I’m going to kill you!”The crowd started to watch them. Cindy stood dumbfoundedly at the side.
