My legs fail me, and I collapse on the F***ing floor. I’m still in shock. Still unable to believe that the man l loved would treat me so cruelly, all because of that bitch.

I try to think about what went wrong, but nothing makes sense.

Rowan hates me and wants nothing to do with me. Calvin cut me off and he also wants nothing to do
