Chapter 10
Chloe finally had time to eat.
She stabbed her steak viciously with her fork:
“That cheating bastard! If I ever see him again, I’m beating his ass on sight!”
I figured as long as I stayed hidden, Ethan would never track me down.
So when he showed up a month later, I couldn’t believe the wreck of a man blocking my path was actually him.
The
guy
who used to be drop–dead gorgeous now looked like walking death–his collarbones and cheekbones jutting out, sunken eyes, skin pale as a corpse.
His once–thick hair was patchy and thin.
The second he saw me, he nervously ran his hands through what was left of it.
A huge clump came out in his fingers–more hair loss than I’d see in a week.
I thought he had some kind of disease and immediately stepped back.
He realized what he’d done and quickly threw the hair away, staring at me with desperate, shining
eyes.
I could feel his gaze tracing every inch of my face, and it made me sick. I turned to leave.
“Olivia… I finally found you. Do you have any idea what this past month has been like for me? If I hadn’t found you, I honestly would’ve killed myself!”
“How could you be so heartless, just abandoning me like that…”
He looked completely broken.
He desperately tried to grab my hand.
I jerked away and backed right into Chloe, who was holding her boba tea.

She spotted Ethan and immediately shoved her drink into my hands.
Then she started rolling up her sleeves, looking for something to use as a weapon.
But Ethan didn’t even notice–he just kept grinning at me like an idiot:
“Olivia, you’re even more beautiful than before! I’ve missed you so much it physically hurts. Here, feel my heart…”
Chloe was losing her shit. She grabbed a glass from a nearby table and smashed it on his hand:
“I’ll show you where to put your fucking hands!”
When she ran out of weapons, Chloe went at him with her bare fists.
I was afraid Ethan might fight back, so I quickly stopped her.
Instead, Ethan dropped to his knees again:
“Olivia, hit me! Both of you, just beat the hell out of me! Whatever makes you feel better!”
“Olivia, find something to hit me with–don’t hurt your hands, baby. I’d hate for you to get hurt!”
He was literally begging me to beat him up for his own twisted sense of redemption.
But why the hell should I dirty my hands just to make him feel better?
“Ethan, we’re over. Leave me the fuck alone!”
He refused to believe I didn’t love him anymore, swearing up and down as he knelt on broken glass,
blood pooling beneath his knees without him even noticing.
“Olivia, Riley had the nerve to mess with you, so I personally made sure she got what was coming to
her. Her dad sold her off to some sixty–year–old creep for business connections–she’ll never bother you again!”
“And those asshole friends of mine like Jackson? I cut them all off. I swear I’ll spend the rest of my life devoted only to you, making up for everything…”
Too bad I’d never trust him again.
I’d never forget the cold, cruel way he’d screamed at me.

And I never wanted to think about him fucking other women ever again.
All of that should’ve died when I walked away.
I tried to leave with Chloe, but he crawled after us and wrapped his arms around my legs, sobbing:
“Olivia, please don’t leave me! I swear on my life I’ll never betray you again. I know what I did is
unforgivable, but I’ve loved you from the very beginning! I never wanted to marry anyone else!”
I couldn’t move with him clinging to me, so Chloe grabbed a chair and started beating him with it.
Ethan didn’t even try to dodge–he took every hit, even spitting up blood, but he wouldn’t let go.
This was getting ridiculous.
When Chloe raised the chair again, I didn’t want her to actually kill him, so I stopped her.
His eyes lit up with pathetic hope:
“Olivia, I knew you still loved me! You can’t stand seeing me hurt…”
“Ethan, I’m happy without you. Stop being disgusting and ruining my happiness, okay?”
“I’m literally begging you!”
I stared down at him.
He looked up for just a second, but when he saw the complete emptiness in my eyes, he immediately looked away.
Finally, he let go.
“Okay…”
That single word seemed to drain every ounce of strength he had left.
He collapsed face–first on the ground, sobbing pathetically.
People started gathering to watch the drama.
Chloe made sure everyone knew exactly who he was, shouting that this was the “split personality cheater” who’d gone viral.

Suddenly everyone was calling him a piece of shit who deserved everything he got.
Chloe and I walked away without looking back.
Someone in the crowd asked him:
“If you knew this would happen, why’d you do it in the first place?”
He didn’t even dare cry anymore.
He just looked up at my retreating figure and whispered:
“Olivia… I’m sorry…”
What he didn’t know was that I didn’t need his apology.
I just need to live for myself.
