There was nothing more to say when she
started to go after my man.
I was wrong.
Summer had hit us with lightning and thunder.
Г
“What are you doing here?” I said, holding an
umbrella over Jake.
He stepped back.
“Annie, what do I have to do for you to back
out of the competition?”
“Why should I back out?”
Jake looked away.
“If you back out of this competition, I’ll take
you out on a date.”
I could not believe his offer.
“Jake, you’re disgusting.”
く
I’m done living with Brittany, so I decided to
move out of the dorm.
The butler packed everything up.
Jenny was staring at me.
“Annie, are these your maids?!”
I took off my glasses and put on makeup.
Jake never liked it when I wore bright clothes.
Brittany’s style was his preference.
Unfortunately, I’m gorgeous and love to dress
- up.
Jake said I wasn’t as pretty as Brittany.
Г
Brittany went back to the dorm and saw the
new me.
“Annie, what are you doing?”
I changed into my designer clothes.
“I don’t want to pretend to be poor anymore,
I’m going home.”
Jenny said, “Brittany, Annie has eight maids
and bodyguards. I’ve been living next to a real
celebrity.”
“Annie, please don’t forget about me.”
I laughed, pulled out a purse, and handed it to
her.

“For you, do you like it?”
“I love it.”
Brittany was speechless.
Everything I had was for her.
I threw myself onto the bed.
I don’t need to worry about Jake’s financial
issues.
The butler moved fast.
The scholarship program was canceled, which
meant Jake had to pay.
He has to work again to pay for school.
く
I am officially with Kyle and he slowly shows
up on my social media.
Jake called.
“I heard you and Kyle are together?”
“No comment.”
“Annie, don’t try to make me jealous. I hope you think things through and do not do
anything absurd.”
I remembered Jenny telling me that Jake was
fighting for Brittany.
“Take care of Brittany, and you don’t need to
worry about me.”
<
Jenny sent me a message that day.
“Jake is working as a waiter at a restaurant,
and you will never guess what, he saw
Brittany having dinner with an older man, and
he beat him up.”
“It feels like he is going overboard, Brittany is not his girlfriend, so why did he do that?”
I know why he did that.
Brittany had a daughter with Jake, so he had
to do that.
The present Jake did not meet Brittany’s
expectations.
The time I got together with her was when
Jake didn’t have the position.
The computer science scholarship was gone,
which meant Jake had to work.
I also started to work at my own company.
Last time I just left it for Jake to take care of,
so I never worked.
I did not plan on handing over my company to
anyone this time.
I was not planning to hand over the company.
I did a lot of hard work at the company and
lost a lot of weight.
It felt good to not have to worry about men all
day.
I had fun with Jenny and learned from Kyle.
く
Jenny told me that Jake and Brittany were
together.
I just shrugged it off.
The day Jake stopped me at the coffee shop,
it started raining.
I looked at him and introduced Kyle.
Kyle, the future Tech CEO.
Kyle nodded to Jake.
He looked me in the eyes.
“We need to talk.”
“No, Kyle and I are busy.”
く
Jake looked shocked.
“I came to find you.”
Kyle laughed and said to Jake, “You’re too
kind.”
Jake changed and became more patient.
Looks like he has changed.
I sighed, he changed.
I told Kyle I needed to go to the bathroom
and went to talk to Jake.
Kyle glared at me as I told him what was
happening.
L
“Rumors were true,” he said as I got back.
I looked at him and got a coffee.
“So, you were the heiress.”
I took a sip of coffee.
“What do you want?”
Chapter 2
Jake said with a deep sigh, “Please give me
another chance.”
I almost choked on my coffee.
He lifted his head and said, “Brittany is not
the same as I remember.”
L
Annie did not act like a woman, but Jake
knew that she would care about him.
Brittany looked cute on the outside, but she’s
cold.
Brittany walked away.
He had no money, and Brittany showed her
true colors.
He lived in a basement and would think about
what he was thinking about at this time of the
month.
At that time, Brittany had asked Jake for
money.
Jake tried to wait.
く
Jake had come to the idea that Brittany flew
away with the man to Europe and married the
rich dude.
He bottled it up.
Jake was thinking about how to earn the
money to get Brittany.
“Did you know the ending, so you just broke
up with me?”
I got up.
