After my family went bankrupt, my boyfriend vanished on me. I searched for him for a few days and finally found him at a bar near our school. He was there, wrapped around a younger girl from elementary school. They were being extremely affectionate with each other. My boyfriend said to his friends, "[The young lady from an elite family is quite the player; who knows how many men she's been with? I don't want to be the one left picking up the pieces.]" In front of everyone, I tore apart his little fling and completely broke up with him. Later, he saw intimate pictures of me with a younger guy and came crying to my house, begging to get back together. The guy who answered the door had hickeys on his neck. "[Looking for Yan Yan?... She's busy right now.]"
After my family went bankrupt, my boyfriend vanished without a trace. I searched for him for days before finally finding him at a bar near the school. There he was, wrapped around a younger girl, both of them looking very cozy.
My boyfriend was bragging to his friends, "The young ladies from high society are so wild. Who knows how many men she's been with? I don't want to be the cuckold."
I publicly tore into his little fling and broke up with him for good.
Later, when he saw photos of me with a younger guy, he came crying to my house, begging to get back together.
The guy who answered the door had a fresh hickey on his neck.
"Looking for Corynn? She's busy now."

The Reed Family in Yushoyye went bankrupt overnight, causing a sensation throughout the city.
It had been a week since I received the news, and my boyfriend hadn't contacted me since my family went bankrupt. Unwilling to let it go, I decided to find him and get some answers. Three days later, I finally spotted him at a bar near the school.
Through the door of a private room, I saw him drinking intimately, mouth-to-mouth, with his younger girlfriend.
His friends asked him, "Jace, we heard your girlfriend has been looking for you for days."
"She was dying of anxiety. Aren't you really going to see her?"
Jace chuckled, a look of disdain on his face. "The young ladies from high society are so wild. Who knows how many men she's been with? I don't want to be the cuckold. If it weren't for the fact that she is somewhat pretty and comes from a wealthy family, who would be willing to court her?"
I turned pale, clenching my fists at my sides. I never imagined such humiliating words would come from his mouth.
The people in the room exchanged glances, understanding the situation.
"Jace, you've really got it made, landing a rich and beautiful woman!"
Jace basked in their compliments, tilting the chin of the woman in his arms. "Baby, come home with me tonight. I'll teach you some naughty things..."
The woman, flushed from the alcohol, sat astride Jace's lap, her eyes glazed.
"Jace... I feel so uncomfortable..."
Jace was into this type. He held the woman's waist tightly and kissed her passionately. "Little minx, always seducing me."
Unable to bear it any longer, I kicked open the door and stormed in with my purse.
Jace's smile vanished as he instinctively pushed the woman off his lap. "Baby, you're here."
Without a word, I swung my purse at his face. "You make me feel disgusted!"
Thinking back on their behavior, I realized how blind I had been. I never expected him to be such a fraud.
Jace, feeling humiliated in public, was very unhappy and he grabbed my wrist. "Have you had enough?"
I laughed bitterly, "Shouldn't I be asking you that? You put on such a show of affection, but as soon as I went bankrupt, you couldn't wait to get cozy with your little lover? At least you should have pretended to break up with me!"
Everyone around us backed away in fear, except for Jace's little lover, who stood in front of me, biting her lip and looking scared.
"Miss Reed, blame me, not Jace. I seduced him. He couldn't control himself after drinking..."
I smiled at her, "So you just offered your lips, huh?" I splashed a glass of wine in her face.
"You're so young, but you sat on another woman's boyfriend to seduce him. Do your parents know that you're out here being a mistress? Should I take a couple of pictures of you and post them online? After all, you have to trust big data. Maybe your mother will come across these pictures of you one day?"
The woman burst into tears, and Jace couldn't stand it anymore. He pulled her into his arms.
"Corynn, when it comes to some things, going too far will make people loathe you. If you apologize now, maybe I'll consider not breaking up with you, for the sake of our past."
Jace was confident, thinking I was just throwing a tantrum.
I looked at him, bewildered. "Do you even hear what you're saying?"
Jace deliberately kissed the woman in his arms. "If you don't apologize, I'll have to break up with you. There are plenty of fish in the sea; I don't need you."
"Then let's break up. I don't need you either."
I brushed off the wine splashes on me, unfazed.
Jace didn't expect me to agree. His face darkened. "Corynn, don't regret this. If you walk out of this door, even if you come to beg me to get back with you later, I won't give you that opportunity anymore!"
The child who was clearly born from my belly has no blood relation to me at all. Do you believe it? I don't believe it either! However, the paternity test report in front of me stabbed into my eyes like a knife, piercing my heart and forcing me to accept the truth!
"I never thought I would assist in the birth of my husband's lover's child."
My husband was extremely arrogant about his affair, even during the divorce negotiations, he didn't forget to threaten me...
I discovered my husband was cheating on me through his WhatsApp profile picture. The other person is wealthy and powerful, publicly assaulted me, and caused me to lose my job, ultimately making it impossible for me to stand in the industry! I pretended to compromise, taking careful steps, and slowly closed in on them!
I never expected that the daughter of the nanny I sponsored for her education would be having an affair with my "phoenix man" husband, mocking me as a boring old woman while sleeping in my big bed. They caused me to have a miscarriage and are plotting to take my house and swallow my company. I am carefully planning my counterattack, digging one pit after another for this pair of scoundrels, so they can jump in themselves. I want them to understand just how great the consequences of betraying me will be!
Once by chance, I discovered that my husband had two phones, and one of them contained secrets I was not allowed to touch. In that phone, he and his mistress were like a family, while I was just a pig waiting to be slaughtered. They had prepared a trap for me, wanting to take everything I had and leave me with nothing. When a woman no longer talks to you about feelings, it's hard to say who the real loser will be in the end.

"Release my arm, Mr. Carrington, before I force you to." She says, seeming to smile at me. I give her a sly smile. Squeezing my wrist with her other hand, she twists it uncomfortably. I gave a painful hiss. "Don't underestimate me, Mr. Carrington." "This is the only time I will allow you to walk away from me, Miss Carter." She glared at me as she turned. "Mr. Carrington, I am no possession of yours." I was left standing there when she opened the classroom door and left.
