The Broken-hearted She And The Icy He

Chapter 2

Chapter 2 She Bloomed Like a Rose and Entangled Him Without Mercy

Selfish. Cold–blooded. Fighting a dying woman over a pendant…

But that pendant was hers–left to her by her parents. What was so wrong about wanting it back?

Did he really expect her to keep sacrificing everything for him after being betrayed so completely? Was she supposed to grovel after being humiliated like that?

She wasn’t that pathetic.

Before she could even say a word, John’s phone rang shrilly.

It was a call from Elsa.

Her voice was weak and pained. “John, I just threw up blood. I feel awful… Can you come be with me?”

John paused.

He hadn’t even managed to calm Lily down yet.

But he figured Lily would never really leave him, and Elsa was already seriously ill. So he made his decision.

“Elsa, don’t cry. I’m on my way.”

Hearing her choked sobs, he didn’t bother explaining to Lily anymore. He turned around and left the room without looking back.

As the front door slammed shut, Lily let out a cold laugh and kicked the diamond necklace into a corner.

It had been like this ever since Elsa came back a month ago.

Every time Elsa felt a little uncomfortable or upset, he would drop everything to run to her.

Rain or shine, day or night—he was always there for her.

It was like all those sweet whispers he’d once murmured to Lily, all those promises of eternal love, had been nothing but a dream.

But luckily, it was all about to end.

In one month, she’d marry James.

Then John could stop worrying about her clinging to him, and go be happy with his precious crush. What a perfect outcome.

Funny thing was–her wedding day would be on John’s birthday.

1/5

His birthday, her wedding. Two celebrations on the same day. Poetic, really.

As far as Lily was concerned, once she broke up with John, he was no longer her boyfriend. She had no reason to stay in his villa.

And it just so happened to be a Sunday. She spent the whole day packing everything she owned.

She sold what she could, tossed the rest.

She’d contacted the biggest luxury resale company in Capital City. The staff came straight to her door, and her used bags and jewelry sold for a total of twenty million.

She didn’t transfer a cent to John. She kept it all.

She earned that money. It was hers.
