My husband wants our son to call his first love "Mommy." For his first love, he didn't hesitate to divorce me. Later, I helped him be with his first love. By the way, I also made sure his first love ended up in prison.
When I arrived at the kindergarten, the event had already started.
The playground was filled with a mix of shouts from both adults and children.
"What are they competing in now? The family race hasn't started yet, has it?" I asked.
"It has started. This is the family race." The teacher answered.
Due to a last-minute meeting at work, I was late for the family event of my son, Nick Reed.
My husband, Isaac Reed, had called me twice, and his tone wasn't pleasant.
He said, "Emma, if you can't make it on time, then don't bother coming at all."
It seemed Isaac had forgotten that ever since Nick started kindergarten, I had been the one accompanying our son to most of activities.
As for Isaac, he was either too busy with work or traveling for business.
This time, for the first time ever, he decided to join Nick for the family event, which caught me off guard. I thought he wanted to make an effort for our family.
But when I saw the scene before me, I realized Isaac had no intention of mending things with me.
Instead, he wanted to use this family day to play the role of a loving couple with his long-lost love, Lucy Martin.
On the playground, Isaac had swapped his usual suit for sportswear.
He and Lucy were walking from one end to the other with a balloon between their heads.
The balloon nearly fell, and Isaac quickly reached out to steady Lucy by the waist, pulling her slightly towards him.
Nick stood at the finish line, his little face flushed, cheering, "Go, go!"
Compared to the cheering crowd, I was utterly silent.
Isaac's group won first place, and Nick joyfully leaped into Isaac's arms.
Isaac bent down to pick Nick up, whispering something to him.
Lucy gently wiped the sweat off Isaac's forehead, and then Nick pointed to Lucy's face.
In the next moment, Isaac kissed Lucy on the cheek.
Nick clapped his hands with a smile, and Lucy shyly lowered her head.
Isaac looked at her with eyes brimming with love.
The scene was the perfect picture of a happy family.
"You're pathetic!" Brenden sneered, each word cutting deep into Corinna's heart. Years of emotional wounds had drained every ounce of love she once held. "I've wasted enough time on you. If there's a next life, I hope we never meet again." Her words severed the bond between them like a blade. From that moment on, Brenden was haunted by her absence—unable to sleep, longing for the warmth he took for granted.
My family was on the poverty line and had no way to support me in college. I had to work part-time every day just to make ends meet and afford to get into the university. That was when I met her—the pretty girl in my class that every boy dreamt of asking out. I was well aware she was out of my league. Nevertheless, I mustered all my courage and bravely told her that I had fallen for her. To my surprise, she agreed to be my girlfriend. With the sweetest smile I had ever seen, she told me that she wanted my first gift for her to be the latest and top-of-the-line iPhone. I worked like a dog and even did my classmates’ laundry to save up. My hard work eventually paid off after a month. I finally got to buy what she wanted. But as I was wrapping my gift, I saw her in the dressing room, making out with the captain of the basketball team. She then heartlessly made fun of my inadequacy and made a fool out of me. To make things worse, the guy whom she cheated on me with even punched me in the face. Desperation washed over me, but there was nothing I could do but lie on the floor as they trampled on my feelings. But then, my father called me out of the blue, and my life turned upside down. It turned out that I was a billionaire's son.
