No Longer Yours, Ex-Boyfriend

I had just hired a private detective and the information he gave me proves that what Bianca said was true.

Everyone envied Stephan for flying directly to Linkon to buy expensive jewelry for me, but only I knew that he was willing to do anything to pursue his childhood sweetheart. That brooch was just a small toy to coax me.

He wrapped my hand with gauze, stroked my wrist and asked softly, “Does it still hurt?”

I shook my head.

“I’ll arrange for the family doctor to come and see you later.”

“No need to arrange for a family doctor, it’s just a minor injury.”

“Okay.” Stephan stood up. “Then let’s eat the porridge first? You can try my cooking.”

“Okay.”

Stephan’s gaze paused on my chest. “Vanessa, did you forget to wear your brooch today?”

I paused and said, “I put it away. The summer new product launch is coming soon. It’s not good to wear jewelry from other brands. I’m wearing jewelry from ‘Fiery Summer’ now.”

“That makes sense.” Stephan smiled and said casually, “I thought you didn’t like the gift I gave you.”

My heart suddenly felt a prick of pain.

I changed the subject. “Let’s eat then.”

For several days in a row, Stephan stayed at the Marshall Family’s house and even for many matters that did not need to be handled at the company, he asked Scott to take the documents back to the Marshall Family.

He no longer smelled of roses.

I was a little unsure of what he was thinking.

But Bianca couldn’t sit still anymore and text messages came flooding in.

[Vanessa, what does it matter if you think you have kept him? His heart is not with you at all!]

[I don’t want to make things too ugly, you’d better be tactful and leave!]

[Do you remember the first few days when I returned to Lemure? He is with me every day, Stephan is still the same as he was five years ago, several times a night~]

[Oh, by the way, last time you slept in his office, do you think he was really attending a multinational conference? I have to say, it’s really exciting to be in front of the French window of the rooftop gym.]

At the end, she posted a picture of a gym that was a mess.

But I recognized the scattered tie on the ground at a glance. It was the one I personally selected for Stephan. I said that the dark blue color suit him very well, but there were unexplained stains on the tie in the photo.

On the stainless steel railing of the fitness equipment opposite, two intertwined bodies were vaguely reflected.

There was a buzzing sound in my head and blood rushed back.

“Vanessa, what are you looking at? Why are you so engrossed?” Stephan’s voice broke through his thoughts and he walked over with the documents.

I panicked and dropped my phone, the screen shattered and went black.

“Did I scare you by my sudden noise?” Stephan helped me pick up the phone and looked at it from front to back. “This phone is broken. It’s okay. I’ll ask Scott to buy you a new one.”

His doting expression was exactly the same as before, without any abnormality. If it weren’t for Bianca’s evidence, how much would I have believed him...

Taking the phone back from him, I looked away. “Okay, thank you.”

“Why are you so polite to me?”

Stephan chuckled and moved closer with his hormonal chest, rubbing his big hands around my waist and lowered his head to kiss my exposed neck.

There was a very bewitching whisper in my ear. “Vanessa, I miss you…”

I admitted that Stephan was very good at it. As long as he wanted, he could easily tease the other person’s body.

If it were in the past, I would have indulged in this joy, but now, his kiss and his closeness only made me feel resistant and disgusted.
