His words were ridiculous.
“Austin, you made mistakes, but you always
justify them, never admit your true faults.”
“That’s why we broke up, not because of the
money.”
“And don’t forget, you told Yuki you’d love
her forever.”
“I saw her posts.”

Austin’s face went white.
Sonia had called yesterday, saying Austin
thought I left because of money.
That’s why he contacted me.
He didn’t know I’d seen Yuki’s posts.
I showed him Yuki’s social media.
He stiffened after reading a few.
“……….”

“I was foolish, will you believe me?”
I almost laughed.
く
“The renowned Dr. Austin has such a
ridiculous side.”
“Ask your heart. Does it believe you?”
“Austin, cheating is cheating. Admit it, I’ll let
you and Yuki be.”
“Mia, I’m sorry.”
His tears fell.
“I was wrong. Yuki and I were just playing
around. I don’t love her, I only love you.”
“I’ll change, I won’t see anyone else. Forgive
me?”
I said softly, “Austin, have you ever seen a
gambler repent?”
“They only regret the order of their cards, not
the path they chose.”
“You’re the same. You haven’t realized your
mistakes, you just want me back as a
backup!”
Austin couldn’t argue anymore, he covered
his face and cried.
く
“I’m sorry…
“I’m disgusting, vile.”
“You are vile, how could you cheat on so
many?”
His head shot up, stunned.
“You… you never called me vile before.”
“That was then, this is now. We’re over.”
I left. He called out, “I can’t get you back, can
we at least take wedding photos as a
memento?”
I agreed.
The next day, I was heading to another
country.
Austin, in a suit, appeared at the car.
He pounded on the window.
“Mia, you promised wedding photos!”
“Get out, get out!”
I looked at him coldly, “Austin, give up. I hate
you, I’ll never take photos with you!”
“Driver, let’s go.”

Through the rearview mirror, I saw Austin fall,
his face red, struggling to get up, chasing the
car.
“Mia, I was wrong, give me a chance!”
“Please…”
I couldn’t hear him anymore.
I went to a small country, beautiful scenery,
perfect for my work.
I stopped sharing photos on social media.
Austin disappeared after chasing my car.
On my birthday the following year, I received
a package.
Inside was a 0,000 watch.
A note read: “You were my only love. I know I
can’t make up for it, but I wanted to try.”
Sonia texted:
“Austin was killed by Yuki. She also
committed suicide.”
I felt nothing. I sold the watch and donated
the money to underprivileged children.

I would never forgive Austin.
I hoped he’d find love and happiness in his
next life.
But I hoped I’d never meet him again.
