Chapter 2

If time could rewind four years.

Everyone would have assumed Liam was destined to marry Scarlett.

He, who was always so cold and detached, would travel halfway across the city just to buy flowers for Scarlett.

He, who hated socializing, willingly mingled with the entire art world for Scarlett.

Even for Scarlett's exhibitions, he would cancel important meetings, personally attending every single one.

Our friends used to joke, "Who would've thought Liam had a romantic bone in his body?"

But their ending was anything but good.

So bad, in fact, that Liam came to despise Scarlett.

So bad that Scarlett didn't return for four whole years after leaving the country.

And I, somehow, picked up the pieces.

Everyone knew Scarlett Thorne hated me the most during our school days.

I still remember that night, one of his friends, drunk, pointed at me and said,

He was only marrying me to spite Scarlett Thorne.
