Back in Time: Unshackling From Love

Chapter 26

“Don’t look back, and don’t ask about how it’ll end. Just make sure you eat three meals a day and take care of yourself as the seasons change. Ultimately, when the time is right, and the weather is good, someone will come into your life.”

Beneath the caption was a picture of a feast spread over a table, followed by a selfie of Kylic.

Although the caption and images made it seem like a mere creative life update, if one looked closely, one would notice a man’s arm caught in the corner of Kylie’s selfie.

The man was dressed in a shirt and had a luxury watch on his wrist.

Mikayla knew very well that that was one of the watches Jerome wore frequently.

So Jerome was with Kylie.

Not that it was strange. He’d been so frustrated that night, but she’d refused to give in. Not to mention, he led a clean life and didn’t have any rumored side pieces. The only thing he could have done was go looking for his paramour.

They must have gotten closer over the past few days, which led Kylie to share such insightful words.

Mikayla snorted as she unfollowed Kylie.

Back then, she’d only followed her to get to know her “rival” better.

Today, she didn’t have to care about that anymore. The earlier she unfollowed her, the sooner she’d feel at ease.

Putting her phone away, Mikayla headed out to get some air. As soon as she got out of the garage, her phone rang.

It was her former best friend, Aubrey Saunders.

The Saunders family had changed their line of work to finance two years ago. Right now, they still weren’t operating on a large scale yet.

In her past life, when she was hospitalized in the mental hospital, the Saunders had somehow managed to latch onto the Miller Group. As a result, their company’s shares had skyrocketed.
