Rosalie’s face froze.
“You followed me?”
“It was just a coincidence,” I said.
But Rosalie clearly didn’t believe me, looking at me suspiciously.
In the past, I probably would have tried to prove myself to her, but now, I didn’t care at all what she thought. I went straight to the point: “Since you want to break up too, we’re on the same page. Let’s just end it.”
“I won’t take anything under your name. Let’s part on good terms”
Now that everything was out in the open, I thought Rosalie would agree readily, but to my surprise, she hesitated.
“Felix, think it through. You’re not young anymore. If you break up with me now, with your conditions, you might not find a partner as good as

“What I said at the hotel was just out of anger. If you can apologize to me, I don’t necessarily want to break up with you.”
“Im not completely without feelings for you, you…
Realizing she was trying to keep me, I felt a bit surprised.
She had threatened to break up with me many times before. Every time, it was me begging her, pleading for her forgiveness, and that’s how we managed to stay together until now.
Wasn’t breaking up what she wanted?
But then I realized what she was worr
hat she was worried about.
Her company was about to go public. If news got out that she had abandoned her boyfriend at this time, it might damage the company’s reputation.
“Don’t worry, after we break up, if anyone asks, I’ll just say it was an amicable separation. I won’t mention anything about you and Tyler,” I added.
Roselle moved her lips, finally seeming a bit frustrated.
d conflicts before, and you never made such a big deal out of it. Why are you so insistent this time?”
“Te the truth, do you have someone else?”
I couldn’t help but frown.
Her suspicion was becoming unreasonable.
She knew very well that after getting together with her, to give her a sense of security, I had cut off contact with all other women. Leven chose only male shopkeepers when going out to buy things.

But I couldn’t be bothered to explain to her anymore. After thinking for a moment, I said, “You can think of it that way if
Rosalie didn’t say anything, finally getting up and going into the bedroom.
I couldn’t quite gauge her attitude, not knowing if she had agreed or refused.
But she probably agreed, right?
It was getting late, and since Rosalie and I usually lived separately anyway, there was nothing inappropriate about it. I decided to stay for one last night and move out tomorrow.
That night, I asked my friend to help find a new place near the company. After packing up my things, I lay comfortably in bed for one last night of rest.
Early the next morning, after getting up, I was surprised to see Rosalie still there.
Usually, by this time, she would have already picked up Tyler on her way to the company. Why was she still here?
However, I noticed that her eyelids had a faint bluet linge, and she looked unwell, as if she hadn’t slept all night.
After thinking for a moment, I still didn’t ask.
Seeing me packing my things, her expression was odd. “What are you doing?”
“Moving out,” I said flatly
We had bought this house together back then, but I had said I would give it to her, so I had no intention of taking it back.
“You don’t need to move out, there’s enough room to live, Rosalle said hesitantly after a moment.
We’ve
already broken up, it’s not appropriate to live together anymore,” I replied.

After all, I didn’t know when Tyler would move in.
Rosalie looked at me without saying anything.
I ignored her too, busy packing my luggage as if she wasn’t there.
Rosalie stood nearby, lost in thought, occasionally coming over to lend a hand.
I was a bit confused. She had never helped me with anything before. And didn’t she need to go to work?
But I didn’t ask, focusing on my

own tasks. Soon, I I had finished packing my luggage.
As I was carrying the suitcase downstairs, Rosalie followed, picking up her car keys from the side. “Let me drive you.”
“No need, just take care of your own business.”
“I don’t have anything to do today, Rosalie said, her attitude somewhat forceful.

at wanting to waste time on this matter, I didn’t refuse anymore and followed her to the underground garage.
I opened the passenger door, about to get in, when I saw a human–sized teddy bear in the passenger seat, neatly buckled in with a safety belt. There was a tag on it that read “Tyler…
There was also a small line of text below.
“When I’m not around, let this doll keep Rosalie company.”
Followed by a playful emoji.
Rosalie had probably forgotten about this too. Seeing it, her expression became somewhat embarrassed.
She had never let me ride in her car to work before.
Once when my car broke down and I wanted her to give me a ride, she got angry, saying I was being fussy and asking why I didn’t just take a
At the time, I really thought she just didn’t like me depending on her.
Turns out it was because she was afraid I would see this.
“I just take a taxi, I said, consciously trying to close the car door.
But to my surprise, Rosalie stopped me. She yanked the bear out of the passenger seat and threw it in the back, forcing a laugh.
“Young people can be childish, but he means well. I just didn’t want to hurt his feelings.”
I remained silent.
I had once given Rosalie a good luck charm to hang in the car, but she took it down after just a few days, saying it was troublesome.
Turns out she could be thoughtful and consider other people’s feelings.
It’s just that person wasn’t me
I didn’t make a fuss either and was about to get into the passenger seat.
At that moment, a voice filled with intense resentment suddenly came from behind.
“Rosalie, weren’t you sick? Why are you here?”

I turned around and saw Tyler standing not far away, his expression surprised and somewhat hurt.
Rosalie’s face looked like she had been caught red–handed, panicking for a moment.
