Chapter 6
I sneered and pushed her away.
“Don’t say things like that. It’s disgusting.”
What’s the difference between emotional cheating and physical betrayal?%
In the end, it’s still cheating.
And she didn’t just cheat once–she cheated everywhere.
In love, betrayal is betrayal. There’s no grading system for it.
“Sign the divorce papers when you get back. I don’t want to drag this into court.”
With that, I turned and walked away.
In this relationship, I gave everything I could.
I never let Pam down. I owe her nothing.N
I thought she would finally leave after that.
But I was wrong.
She joined our company’s support team for the mountainous region, and every time she saw me, she greeted me like nothing ever happened.
We were on the same team–avoiding her was impossible.
She clearly came with one goal: to get me back.
She arranged her workstation right beside mine, ate lunch with me daily, and even waited after work to walk home with me.
To top it off, she convinced the supervisor to assign her the dorm next to mine.
The supervisor, thinking Pam was a lesbian, told me to look out for her.
“She’s braving tough conditions here,” he said.”
“Help her out if you can.“>
I reluctantly agreed.
But Pam took that goodwill and ran with it.
Using the supervisor’s trust as an excuse, she latched onto me.
She watched me while I worked.
Talked to me while I ate..
Waited outside while I used the bathroom.
I couldn’t help but laugh in disbelief.
“Pam, don’t you have your own responsibilities here? You came to serve the community, not chase me around–this isn’t about love.“N
Her eyes filled with tears.
“I know… I’m sorry. I just want to be near you.”
I responded coldly.
“There’s no need.”
After that, she changed tactics–focused on her work, treated colleagues kindly, and even won their sympathy.
Her being perceived as a lesbian made others more protective of her, and some began to play matchmaker.
“David, Pam seems like a good person,” they’d say.
“You can tell she really loves you. Why not give her a chance?”
“Exactly. It’s not easy for someone like her to stick this out. Following you here shows real love.”
I just smiled in response.!!
They didn’t know the truth.S
And I had no intention of airing dirty laundry about how Pam had a child with Van.S
I refused to let her become the target of whispers or pity.
Since she refused to sign the divorce papers and was clearly trying to delay things, I simply waited for the required separation period to pass so I could file for divorce legally.
Half a month later, we completed our first project in the region. The supervisor treated everyone to a celebratory dinner.
Pam sat beside me, clearly tipsy, and held out her hand to show me the ring on her finger.
“Husband, do you still remember this?”
My eyes blurred for a moment.
Of course, I remembered.
It was our wedding day.
Before a crowd of smiling guests, I slid that very ring onto her finger.
She had placed the matching one on my hand–promising to be one in heart, one in soul.
10:15 AM
She had placed the matching one on my hand–promising to be one in heart, one in soul.
I upheld my promise.
But what about her?!
My gaze went cold.
Pam didn’t notice the shift in me. She gently stroked the ring, her voice soft and nostalgic.
“From the moment we met–at my father’s funeral–you stood beside me, comforting me. I knew then you weren’t like other men.”
“That’s why I kept clinging to you, wanting to be friends.
Somewhere along the way, you became a part of me.”
Her voice trembled.
“And when my mother had that car accident… before she died, she asked you to take care of me. That moment sealed it for me.“}]
