“You Can't be serious!” He bit out as he stared at me, clearly unable to believe his ears. | couldn't believe my
own ears too and my heart was completely breaking on the inside, but it felt like if I didn’t do this, I'd go home
and cry myself to sleep. | was gonna cry myself to sleep should he accept to bring this relationship to an end as
well to be honest.
It's just that... I've never been this utterly embarrassed in a single day. It's the fact that he apologized tofor
this sthing when we both went upstairs to his bedroom, and now it had repeated itself. At this rate, none of
his family members would takeseriously and | honestly wouldn't even know how to face them.
“I'm serious, Marco. This is the height of it. You just embarrassedso much in there right now and | wouldn't
even know how to face your family members anymore. So, if this is how it’s always gonna be between us, we
can just end it now.”
Marco spluttered hard, still staring down atlike he couldn't believe his ears. “You can’t seriously be ending a
relationship over that! Not when | literally gave up my inheritance for you!” He bit out so sharply that I flinched,
then my eyes widened in utter shock as those words echoed continuously in my head.
“What?” | whispered slowly, watching as he sighed and dragged a hand across his face and walked away from
“What did you mean by those words, Marco? Did you seriously lose your inheritance because of me?” | asked
quietly and he remained stiff for about a minute before he reluctantly nodded in response.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yeah, 1 did.”
| gasped in utter disbelief, my eyes widening as | gaped at him.
“What?? How did it happen??” | demanded as my mind reeled hard. I still couldn't wrap my head around what |
just heard right now. Is his family punishing him because he chose to be with me? That's it? How cruel!
My mind was still coming up with a bunch of theories when he finally turned around to faceagain, and he
looked stressed out this time.
“It was the wedding which | ended because of you. If | had gone ahead with it, I'd have gotten the inheritance,
but | called it off, because of you. So I didn’t get the inheritance anymore.” He revealed and | blinked at him in
utter shock.
“I don’t understand... the inheritance was previously hanging over the marriage?” | asked and he pinched his
nose while sighing before stiffly nodding.
“Yes.”
“I don’t understand though, that makes no sense. Wasn't it yours in the first place?” | asked and he shrugged a
little, makingfrown in confusion as | stared up at him.
“Where did the inheritance go after you called off the wedding?”

“To my brother.” He bit out, sounding pained now, with his face in a harsh expression and | felt my frown deepen
as | stared at him.
“Then... wouldn't that mean that the inheritance initially belonged to him?” | asked slowly, but Marco's face
contoured in pure rage.
“You're defending him!” He bit out and | reared back in shock.
“What? How am | defending him??”
“Saying it originally belonged to him? How the hell do you know that? What do you even know?” He shot back
and | blanched.
“Stop being ridiculous, Marco! | only said that because clearly he’s the oldest so of course it belongs to him. Or
am | still wrong? If I am, you only need to say that and that would be it! There's no need to assthat I'm
defending him or that | don’t know anything!” | shot at him and he turned away fromfor a bit to let out a
long sigh, while pulling on his hair for a bit.
Feeling extremely drained and wanting to be far away from him right now, | didn’t bother trying to get through to
him anymore and instead walked off while trying to call for an uber.
After finding one, | quickly put in my address just as | heard footsteps behind me. For a fleeting moment, |
assumed that it was Zane, but it was Marco. He placed a hand on my shoulder once he stopped behindwhich
| shrugged off.
“I'm leaving.” | tell him while rolling my eyes. He spinnedand cupped my face, then he tried to kiss me. |
ended up turning my head away so his lips landed on my cheek, then | pushed him away. | was annoyed right
now, and very mad at him, so no way am | letting him kiss me.
“Aw, c'mon Addison? Are you still mad atover that?” he asked in a whiny voice and I let out a sound of
disbelief before fully pulling away from his arms. | literally couldn’t believe my ears tight now, and as | stared at
him right now, | wondered if he had always been like this.
“You can’t be serious right now, Marco. You humiliated me, you embarrassedtonight. You madea
laughing stock. You promised that wasn’t gonna happen, you assuredyou'll be at my side. Meanwhile | got
laughed at by all your cousins more times than | could count tonight.”
“Your mother humiliatedso much tonight and did you even bother to defend me? You only did once after
Zane asked you to. The second time, you agreed with your mother. You basically agreed with her that | was a
slut.” | was already completely out of breath so | had to pause to inhale and exhale deeply before continuing.
“And now you're askingif I'm still mad over that? Letsay it then. I'm very mad over that. I'm not just
mad, I'm very disappointed. The fact that you still don’t see the problem is actually very hurtful.”
After those words, | turned away fast while blinking fast to stop myself from crying tight now, cause that would
honestly be embarrassing right now.
After about a minute, a long sigh echoed out behind me.
“I'm sorry, Addison.” He sighed out quietly but | remained silent.
My uber arrived at that moment and | bid him goodbye, however he grabbed my hand and offered to drop
