Chapter 10

Seeing my unwavering stance, she tried to grab my hand, but I dodged her attempt.

"There's been a misunderstanding between us. Please, hear me out. Remember how close we used to be? We lived in that basement apartment together. I'd bring back leftover meals from the film set so we could share them to save money. Have you forgotten all that?" she rambled on, her eyes brimming with tears.

She was once so good to me. But later, she subjected me to emotional abuse, hurled insults, and ignored my calls. That's when I lost all hope for us.

"Scarlett, it's over between us. Let's both move on."

I brushed past her, but she desperately tried to hold me back. "Please, give me one more chance?"

I ignored her plea and walked straight into my apartment.
