Ivy’s tears make her look like the victim here.]]
I watch that pained expression in Dax’s eyes as he turns to glare at me coldly.[]
“Ember, don’t make this any more embarrassing.“]
He’s clearly trying to control himself, his brow furrowed tight.[]
“Go home first. I’ll give you a proper explanation for everything.“]]
Which basically tells me…]
He’s still choosing Ivy.[]

Even though I saw this coming, my heart still feels like it’s being ripped apart.
Even caught in bed with another woman, he still thinks I’m the one causing problems.]
I made things uncomfortable for his precious Ivy.]]
He says: “You know my patience has limits.“]
“So does inine.” My voice is calmer than it’s ever been.[]
I look at Ivy’s smugly triumphant expression and smile:[]
“Congratulations. You don’t have to sneak around with Dax anymore. You won.”
“But don’t get too cocky+you’re just picking up my trash.“]
All these years, I tried convincing myself.]
Friends can be close sometimes. Don’t be oversensitive or paranoid.[]
But after countless attempts at tolerance and compromise got me nowhere, I finally figured it out.[
Using friendship as a cover, as a stalling tactic, dropping hints here and there, getting flirty sometimes, using vague language to play in the gray area between love and friendship.[]
That behavior is shady, dishonest, disgraceful, and pathetic from the start.]
Men’s toxic nature means Dax was also getting off on this twisted thrill of juggling two women.[]
Honestly, I’m almost impressed.]
He managed to fool the wife in his bed while keeping his side piece on the hook.[]
So tell me who does he really love?
Chapter 6
Doesn’t matter anymore though.]]
I pull out the divorce papers from my purse and slap them against Dax’s chest.
“We’re getting divorced!“]]
Dax stares at the divorce agreement in disbelief, his face going from red to white.[]
“Divorce? And you want me to walk away with nothing?“[]
We’ve fought so many times over the years, but I never mentioned divorce.[]
He’s panicking. He tears the papers to shreds.[
“I don’t agree. I never wanted to divorce you!“]

“Ember, think about everything we’ve been through together! You want to throw it all away just like that?“]
He steps closer, then suddenly notices my phone is livestreaming.
The viewer count has hit over 100K.]
Comments are flooding with people calling him a cheating scumbag.
wvy viewers have already doxxed him and Ivy, filling the screen with memes made from their bed photos.[]
Some tech–savvy
“Are you insane? You’re livestreaming this?!”]
Dax finally snaps, angrily reaching to grab my phone.
But Kai, who’s been waiting outside, moves faster–his fist connects with Dax’s face.
“Back off!”

Dax doesn’t see it coming, his head jerks to the side, blood trickling from his mouth.
I push past Kai’s protective arm and walk up to Dax.]
“Dax, you think we’ve been through so much together? When you were starting your company, my parents sold their house without question to support you. A year later when my mom died, I handled the funeral alone, crying my heart out–where were you?”
“I found out later from Ivy’s Instagram that you were covered in cake frosting, celebrating her birthday.”
“I lost the mother I loved most, while you were having the time of your life with another woman on her birthday.“[
Thinking about Mom, I feel like choking on the lump in my throat, almost coughing up blood.[]
“Later Dad told me the living have to keep going, so I worked until 3 AM every day, drank with clients until I had stomach ulcers–that’s how we built this company.”
I jab my finger into Dax’s chest repeatedly.[]
so the one who went through it
You deserve to leave N
