Dane's throat tightened, a dark desire flickering in his eyes.
He turned off his phone screen and looked at me nervously.
I gripped my pen, swallowing the bitterness in my heart, and asked casually:
"Something wrong?"
Seeing that I hadn't seemed to notice, he relaxed and hugged me, coaxing softly:
"Sweetheart, the TV station urgently needs to discuss the next live show collaboration with me. Is it okay if I go handle it?"
I didn't expose his lie, just nodded silently.
Dane planted an affectionate kiss on my cheek and quickly signed the agreement.
"Be good, go home and wait for me. I'll come back to you as soon as I'm done."
I watched his retreating figure silently, feeling as if there was a gaping hole in my chest, cold wind whistling through it.
They say a man's love follows his money.
But Dane, what exactly is love?
When you hastily signed your name on the transfer agreement,
What were you thinking?
Was it that you've finally given me security for the rest of my life, or that you can finally rush off to meet another woman?
I walked out of the law firm like a zombie, when suddenly my phone received a message from Aria.
[Melody sis, a man's body doesn't lie.]
[You two haven't done it in a long time, right?]
Then she sent a location pin.The distance was barely two hundred meters.
My mind went blank, and as if possessed, I started walking towards that spot.
At last, I found Aria's car on the bustling side street.
The million-dollar SUV was gently rocking with a steady rhythm.
The tinted windows concealed the passionate scene inside, but Aria's seductive voice could faintly be heard:
"Dane, when are you going to break up with Melody?"
The car suddenly jerked,
Followed by Dane's voice, filled with warning:
"I've told you, Mrs. Langdon's position can only belong to Melody."
"If Melody's unhappy, you know the consequences."
Aria feigned a pitiful tone: "Honey, why is your heart even harder than that?"
Perhaps as punishment, the car began to rock more vigorously.
Aria's tearful moans leaked out, drilling into my ears like a deadly curse.
I covered my ears, trying to escape, but that sound was like steel needles, piercing my heart one by one, leaving it riddled with holes and drenched in blood.
Finally, I fled in tears, running away in panic.
My heart twisted in agony, I could barely breathe.
I took a deep breath to comfort myself.
It's okay, soon it won't hurt anymore.Seven days from now, I'll completely forget about Dane, and I'll never feel heartache for him again.
