Chapter 79

The moment I heard his words, I almost exploded on the spot. This punk, Sean—after ruining both my relationship and my career—had the nerve to stand in front of me and call me childish? I laughed, though it was more out of rage than amusement. "Yeah, I'm childish, and you're so mature. Mature enough to come crawling back after years abroad, chasing after your ex, who's in a relationship. Really admirable." "I'm not here to argue with you," he said, still wearing that same infuriatingly sunny grin. That fake, cheerful expression was the thing I hated most about him. He was full of filth, yet always tried to act like some wholesome, innocent guy. There was no one else around—we both knew exactly who we were. Who was he trying to fool? "I know you broke up with Isabelle because of me. Now you're quitting this project because of me. What, are you planning to avoid me for the rest of your life?" Boom. His words hit like a thunderclap. I almost couldn't believe what I was hearing.
