Chapter 13

"What?" I was dumbfounded.

Ryan continued casually, "Jack Renolds. Wasn't he the one who gave you a lift back home that night? You went to see him as soon as he came back into the country." His voice was full of disdain and self-mockery.

I furrowed my brows and locked gazes with him. I then asked in disbelief, "Are you saying that I have feelings for Jack?"

"Do you not?" He curved his lips into a sneer.

To me, his expression was full of mockery.

An uncontrollable anger that I had never felt arose in my head. I raised my hand and slapped him. "You're such a bastard, Ryan!"

I tried my best to not cry, but tears still welled up in my eyes.

I couldn't believe that we would end our relationship in such a way.

Most people would like to put the blame on the other party when they were guilty and Ryan was no exception.
