After Dumping Him, My Escape Failed

Alma once marked the aloof Shane Powell as her own, forcing him to get her name tattooed on his waist while she wore his initials, SP, wrapped in roses. She had threatened to leave him forever if he ever removed it. But now, the tables have turned. When Shane catches a glimpse of her bare waist and notices her matching ink is completely gone, his dark gaze locks onto her. Exposed and cornered by the powerful man she tried to discard, Alma realizes that escaping him will be impossible.

Chapters

Chapter 5

"Shane, you must have been tired. Here's your share."

"No need."

He turned me down at once, but I was mentally prepared and didn't mind.

He was good-looking and had a nice voice, which was like a clear spring flowing in the mountains, and I was instantly more motivated.

"OK then. Can I sit here?"

I pointed to the spot next to him.

"Whatever."

Shane followed my fingertip and glanced in the direction. His voice was cold and indifferent.

I jumped over, sat next to him, and enjoyed my milk tea. Since he wasn't looking at me, I admired his delicate profile bluntly, and my eyes were full of obvious passion and obsession.

I was like this every day during the two weeks of military training.

Anyone who wasn't blind could tell that I had a crush on Shane.

Coupled with my showy treat, word spread fast.

Alma Austin, a beautiful freshman girl from the Department of Finance was rich and determined, and nothing could stop her from winning the heart of Shane Powell, her classmate.

Everyone knew Shane.

He scored high on the SAT exam, yet he chose to be in this school. The principal was so overjoyed that he praised Shane again and again at the opening ceremony. Besides, Shane was handsome. He was always the center of attention wherever he went.

On the contrary, I was just an ordinary-looking girl who had some money.

Shane didn't care about these rumors at all, and he treated me distantly the way he treated everyone else.

After the military training, he became very busy, working part-time and participating in various prize-winning competitions held by the school.

I had no idea how to be part of his extremely busy life. I didn't wanna disturb him and annoy him.

The only thing I could do was try my best to find a reason to show up when he was around every day.

Since he wanted to make money, I hired him to be my tutor and teach me advanced mathematics, which I was not good at.

"I'll give you 100 dollars an hour. The mid-term exam is around the corner. Can you tutor me, please, Shane? You're so good at math."
