| hadn't expected Ryan to get so angry, but what right does he have to be mad at his ex?
“Yeah, anyone with a shred of decency wouldn't be getting entangled with their ex,” | kept my cool and reasoned
with him.
“You...” Ryan's fury hit a wall of ice and he fell silent.
Seeing that he was finally calm enough to talk, | got straight to the point. “Ryan, have you forgotten who you
are? You're married. Your wife's nis Fiona.”
Ryan was silent for a long time, his voice hoarse. “Are you blaming me?”
“I'm not blaming you. | know everyone has their own choices,” | said calmly.
“So, you've chosen to be with Uncle Ryan?” Ryan's voice was calm, but there was a storm raging beneath the
surface. “That sense of morality you just talked about-do you really have it?”
| was caught off guard by his question, momentarily stunned.
“Neither of us is married. From getting to know each other to falling in love, which part of that goes against
morality?” | replied evenly.
“But he’s my uncle...”
“I'm not your wife, or even your girlfriend anymore. We've been broken up for over six months,” | cut him off.
Ryan’s anger faded, and he fell silent again.
“Ryan, stop calling me. Just focus on your own life,” | said softly. | could hear his breathing grow heavy, like he

“Please, don’t marry him. Don’t becmy aunt-in-law, please?” Ryan's voice trembled as he pleaded.
My heart trembled. Ryan was actually begginglike this-does this mean he still hasn't moved on?
“Ryan, when you were with me, did you already know your family had arranged a marriage for you?” | asked, my
tone sharp.
Ryan didn’t try to hide it. “Yeah, | knew about my grandfather's plans, but I just couldn't accept it.”
“So that’s why you chased afterso hard, even went so far as to work as an intern for me?” | remembered
how Ryan threw himself into that role-no trace of the privileged heir at all. He was always the first one in,
cleaning up, wiping things down, even taking care of the flowers on my desk, changing the water and trimming
them regularly.
He worked so hard that people actually thought he was broke, always hustling and never missing a beat.
“Yes!” Ryan's voice dropped, sounding almost wistful. “Back then, | felt so fulfilled, so happy. Every morning,

“That's enough!” | snapped. “You knew from the start there was no future, but you still chased afterso
relentlessly, just because you couldn't let it go.”
“Vic, I'm sorry...” Ryan stammered, clearly flustered. “At first, | just thought it was a game, but the more t|
spent with you, the more | realized | really liked you. You were intelligent and gentle, always willing to help- even
lendingmoney to pay off my debts. Deep down, you were genuinely good-hearted, and I... | just fell
hopelessly in love with you.”
“Forget it. There's no point talking about this anymore. Ryan, to be real with you, | never planned on marrying
you. | was with you because you were young, good-looking, and had stamina. As for feelings? There wasn’t much
emotion involved.” | said it coldly, making sure he'd lose all hope.
Ryan was clearly shaken. His voice cout rough, “You never loved me?”
“No,” | replied, totally indifferent. “Who wouldn't want a young, hot body?”
“You're lying!” Ryan snapped, his
