I have an obsessive crush on Alec, and I'm willing to marry him just to be his shield for his affair with his childhood sweetheart.
"I'm bringing Vivienne home tonight. You'd better not show up."
I'm recuperating in the guest room, trying to avoid them at all costs. I watch helplessly as they embrace and head upstairs. They don't even bother to close the master bedroom door before they start their intimate entanglement.
My thoughts are simple: to love someone is to love what they love.
I'm under Alec's spell. If I can't have him, I'm content with being Mrs. Grey in name only.
But when the earthquake strikes, I witness Alec rushing to Vivienne's side, holding her tight as they escape danger.
Meanwhile, I'm trapped under layers of crumbling walls, billboards, and utility poles, closing my eyes forever.
I regret it now. No amount of affection is worth more than my own life.
Given another chance, I decide to give up on Alec.
But now he's the one with regrets.

Husband Abandoned Me During the Earthquake

My PUA tactics were clearly hitting him hard, leaving him defenseless.


He could only stare at me blankly, then finally choked out, "What do you know!"


In the end, he didn't offer to pick me up, but instead slunk out of the hospital room.


Sure enough, deep down men actually know what's up.


Doesn't he realize that if he just gave up everything from the Grey family, gave up his so-called social reputation, he could win the girl?


Why listen to his parents and marry someone he doesn't love?


It's nothing but wanting to have his cake and eat it too.


I sighed a couple times, getting ready to pack my bags and leave the hospital.


But before I could reach my luggage, a large hand with distinct knuckles beat me to it.


I looked up to see who the hand belonged to - it was Nash.


There was a genuine smile on his lips. "I'll take you."


Then his eyes fell on the various documents and agreements I had set aside.
