Semua Bab He Gave Up Everything, Including Me: Bab 1 - Bab 7

Vivienne's POVI no longer wanted a seven-year relationship where I was never the one he chose.When Joshua walked into the hotel room, I had just finished washing up. He was carrying some freshly baked buns, milk, and churros.I reached for the food, but Joshua instinctively pulled them out of my reach.He explained apologetically, "Vivi, Miki specifically asked me to buy these for her yesterday. If you're hungry, I'll take you to eat at the college cafeteria later. You know Miki has quite the temper. If she finds out I didn't do what she asked, she'll throw a fit."I lowered my eyes and withdrew my hand.This wasn't the first time something like this had happened. Ever since high school, Mikaela had ordered Joshua around freely far more than I, his girlfriend, ever did.When we went to the movies, she had to sit with Joshua. On her birthday, she demanded that Joshua buy her a cake and cut it with her. When we went to an amusement park, she always got Joshua to accompany her wh

Third-Person POV"Shut up!" Joshua roared.Mikaela fell silent awkwardly.Seeing the crazed look on Joshua's face, the man hurriedly explained himself. "I don't know anyone named Vivienne. This is my room. If you don't believe me, you can ask the front desk."Joshua stormed over to the front desk. The receptionist told him that Vivienne had checked out ten days ago.Upon hearing that, Joshua's eyes turned red. The expression on Vivienne's face that day was still very vivid in his mind.It turned out she had already been planning to leave him that day.He collapsed to the floor, murmuring Vivienne's name over and over. It was as though saying her name would make her appear before him.Two housekeepers came over to clean the room. They were chatting with each other as they worked."Young women these days really don't take good care of themselves. When I cleaned the room ten days ago, there was a pregnancy test with two lines in the trash."Joshua couldn't believe what he had ju
