Loving Me For Twelve Years Is Your Biggest Lie
Chapter 2
Landon's eyes suddenly widened when he heard this, his eyes filled with anger.
Nevertheless, he calmed down and looked down as he told the girl patiently and gently, "Evelyn, you should just sit inside and rest for a while. You're tired from the two-hour plane ride."
His voice sounded so gentle that I had never even heard it before.
Sadness and heartbreak surrounded me in an instant.
Evelyn was tired from the two-hour plane ride, but when I travelled over twenty hours on the train alone to save money to see him, he would just say that I was wasting my money, that it wasn't necessary, and that it was holding up his work.
The faint smell of perfume rushed into my nose as Evelyn walked past me.
Landon grabbed my luggage. "You can't leave! What will grandma do if you leave? I need you to join me in explaining to her that we broke up our relationship a long time ago, and we've just been hiding it from her because we're worried about her health.
"Regarding the wedding that was scheduled for today, you must stay and explain to the relatives that it was you who wanted to marry me, so you modified the name on the invitation without permission, and that the bride was supposed to be Evelyn."
I sneered out at the look on his face as he took it for granted.
"Do you care about Karen? Do you care about the relatives? If you cared about me, you wouldn't have hung up on me and blacklisted my phone number when I wasn't finished talking.
"Landon, don't be ridiculous. You just care about yourself.
"You disgust me!"
Saying that, he looked at me angrily.
"Disgust? Julie, you know very well that you were the one who begged me to be with you at first, and now you're pretending to be innocent. Have you forgotten how you flattered me before?
"Who are you? You're just a nanny in my house, and who are you to teach me a lesson?
"I had found a company for you, and it was owned by Evelyn's family. I wanted to recommend you to go there, and you could double your salary, but now you don't look like you deserve it. You're just right for working at the bottom."
Landon moved too much, revealing the Rolex Submariner on his wrist.
I sneered out a laugh.
"I make clean money, but how about you? You're just making money with your body.
"By the way, does that girl inside know what kind of person you are? Does she think she's been with a wonderful man, just like I did back then? I'm going to reveal your true nature right now!"
After saying that, I directly turned around with the intention of walking towards the room, but I didn't expect Landon to yank my wrist so forcefully that I immediately shrieked out in pain.
"If you dare to say one more word in front of Evelyn, I will tear your mouth!"
After saying that, Landon's grip on my wrist got even harder, and my skin rapidly reddened.
I gritted my teeth to endure it, my eyes growing indifferent.
This was the first time I was indifferent to what Landon was doing. A hint of panic showed in his eyes, but he still threatened me.
"I told Evelyn you were my cousin, but are you going in there now to ruin me? I'm warning you, don't reveal my identity. Otherwise, I'll make you lose your job.
"You don't want to live in this city like a stray dog, do you? Karen is my grandma, so do you really think she'll favour you if we break up? Stop dreaming!"
The ferocity in his eyes stung my swollen eyes.
For twelve years of relationship, he didn't give me a single word of explanation when we broke up.
Instead, he asked me to help him hide his identity.
I shook his hand off with all my might, and I felt extremely disappointed at this moment.
I said indifferently, "Landon, don't waste your time. The wedding has been cancelled, and you and your idiot girlfriend can go back."
"What? Julie, are you insane? Do you know how much effort it took me to get Evelyn to agree to come back to my hometown and get married? You're a bitch. Why did you cancel the wedding?"
Landon grabbed me by the collar of my shirt, his face flushed and his eyes filled with rage.
However, I got angry this time and knocked Landon's hand down.
Landon didn't expect that I, who was always obedient, would get angry one day, and he looked stunned.
"Julie, how dare you fight back? If it weren't me, would you be here today? Are you out of your fucking mind?"
I looked at him with a sneer in my eyes.
"Yes, I've gone crazy, so I would have believed your lies and waited for you back home for five years. Twelve of my years were wasted on a bastard, and Karen even felt sorry for me!"
My voice got increasingly louder, and I finally was yelling with almost all my might.
Landon widened his eyes and grabbed me by my neck, and I could barely catch my breath.
"What the fuck were you babbling about in front of my grandma? Did you complain about something? Julie, I was wrong about you, and you make me sick!"
"Why did you cancel the wedding? I've obviously explained it to grandma. She loves me the most, and there's no way I'd cancel the wedding!"
"Where's grandma? I want to see her!"
