Heiress Rejects the Loser
Chapter 2
After returning home, I shut myself in my room, refusing to eat or drink as I was overwhelmed by self-doubt. I couldn't comprehend why the two people I trusted most would betray me. Was I too kind, allowing them to stomp all over my genuine feelings as they wished? Or was I simply undeserving of true affection, destined to be a casualty in this charade?
Everyone knew how much I cared for Kyle, my heart and mind completely absorbed with him. But what they didn't know was how he first drew me in with his intense love, slowly capturing my heart. During our freshman orientation party, I twisted my ankle by tripping backstage, and he was the one who carried me to the medical center. He was also the one who woke up early every morning to buy me breakfast, patiently waiting in line without complaint.
But after I accepted his advances, he changed abruptly, claiming he needed to concentrate on his studies. Before long, I found myself the one chasing after him.
"Hattie, if you kneel down and beg me now, I might be gracious enough to forgive your earlier lack of sensitivity," Kyle's voice jolted me back to reality. Looking at this stranger I once adored, now filled with contempt, I replied icily, "Kyle, do you really think you're worth it? Just looking at you makes my skin crawl."
He was taken aback by my response, and his expression darkened immediately. I pushed him aside resolutely and walked away quickly. It took Kyle a moment to react, and then he yelled at my retreating figure, "Hattie, do you think making up some imaginary fiancé will force me to be with you? Keep dreaming! Your little ploys are utterly childish in my eyes!"
I paused at his words, turned back, and said coolly, "Believe whatever you want." With that, I headed straight for the door. Behind me, I could hear the mocking voices of his friends. "I bet Hattie won't last three days before she's crawling back, begging Kyle for forgiveness."
Kyle shouted loudly, "Even if she gets down on her knees, I will never forgive her! Hattie, let's see how long you can keep this up!"
I walked away confidently, ignoring him completely.
