Chapter 3
The next morning, Amanda woke up and saw Terence, who was adjusting his attire in front of the mirror.
She loved seeing him in a shirt, so he dressed simply most of the time. But today, he dressed so flamboyantly.
Noticing that she was awake, he instinctively walked over and kissed her lips. But she tilted her face, and he ended up pecking her forehead.
He didn’t mind; instead, he smiled and continued to pick a tie.
In the next second, the screen of his phone on the nightstand lit up, and since he didn’t lock it, she saw a chatting interface.
The contact name was “Honey“, and the message Honey sent was, “You’re so bad. Why were you so eager last night? I just bought the dress, and you ruined it. What am I supposed to wear today?”
So, the reason why he dressed up today was that he had a date. Feeling bitter, Amanda suddenly realized it wasn’t the WhatsApp account he usually used.
Before she could dwell on it, Terence had already walked over to the bedside. He subconsciously glanced at the nearly dimmed phone screen. and pulled a long face.
“Did you snoop on my phone?” he asked.
Looking at how angry he was, she suddenly remembered that back then, he had her fingerprint recorded on his phone and said he had no secrets from her.

He knew she never checked his phone but still had an alt account. Was it because he was worried that she might find out?
With that thought, she looked up at him, feeling puzzled. If he still cared about her, why did he cheat on her?
How much of his love was real? Did he still love her at all? She had no idea
After he left, she sent home several suitcases she had prepared the night. before.
Then she sorted out things that were related to him and planned on donating them.
Six years wasn’t exactly a short time; before she realized it, the villa had already been filled with their memories,
Back then, they agreed to make this villa their wedding place, and then Terence transferred it to her name. Now that she was determined to make a clean break with him, of course, she wouldn’t want the villa.
Taking the documents, she went to the registration office to transfer the
villa.
The staff asked, “You’ll receive the new property certificate in about at week or so. Would you like to come here to pick it up, or do you want us to mail it to you?”
She said, “Mail it to this address.”
She figured that the day Terence received the property certificate would be the second day after she left, and she hoped he liked this gift.
He was indeed considerate, and there was always a gift for her on anniversaries or holidays. But he was also so careless that when they were

choosing the wedding venue, he simply left her with a black card and told her to pick a site she liked. And then, he never asked about it. Now she knew it was because his attention had been attracted by someone else.
She unconsciously tightened her grip on the bag. Sadness mixed with disappointment made her feel dizzy.
She stood outside in the wind for a long time and then went to the class reunion. When she was about to push open the door to the private room, she heard teases.
“You’ve put on wedding rings already? When are you getting married? This year, maybe?”
“Terence, come on. Abigail has always been the one you love, right? Then why did you date Amanda? Now that everyone has known, and it’s troublesome to break up with her.”
“Terence, I’m so surprised that you’ve had a crush on Abigail for so long. Now that she has come back, you can finally pick up where you left off.”
Noticing the displeased look on Terence’s face, Abigail Hawkins quickly said sweetly while leaning against his arms, “I don’t think a title matters a lot. Anything is fine as long as he loves nie.”
Terence echoed, smiling while lowering his head to kiss her, “You know I can give you everything besides marriage.”
The others realized they had said the wrong thing and quickly said, “Yeah, marriage is just a formality. Abigail, you’re the only one Terence has ever loved. Guys like him are rare creatures these days. You’ve got great taste in men.”
Standing outside the door, Amanda was stupefied by what she had heard, feeling as if her blood had frozen.
Chapter
Terence and Abigail got together before this year?
In other words, her relationship with Terence was a complete lie ever since the beginning.
All those sweet moments and happy memories suddenly turned into a big hand, slapping her face hard and destroying the last bit of her rationality.
Back then, Terence said he had nothing but his love for her; he promised he’d love her and protect her forever. So, she willingly chose to stay by his side when he started from scratch.
It wasn’t until now that she realized she was the only one who took their six–year relationship seriously.
Until a passing waiter handed her a tissue tentatively, she realized she was crying.
She wiped her tears away and pushed open the door.
Hearing the sound, Terence instinctively pushed Abigail away, looking flustered.
“Amanda? When did you get here?”
