Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
He thought of the times she smiled at him, when she was angry, when she yelled at him, when she was embarrassed, and finally, when she turned around and left without looking back.
There was an emptiness inside him.It was like an endless spiral that devastated his soul! “Damn it!”
Halston took a deep breath.He couldn’t go on like this.His life shouldn’t be affected so drastically just because a woman left him.He shouldn’t be suffering like this.
Besides, that woman happened to be an evil and merciless person! Feeling somewhat remorseful, he stood up and prepared to leave the place that reminded him so much of Flossie.
However, the moment he turned around, a notebook with a vellum cover on the bookshelf caught his attention.
This notebook had a lock on it.It looked a little like a diary and seemed to contain many secrets.
Could this be Flossie’s diary? Halston’s interest was piqued.He immediately reached for the notebook and tried to unlock it.
Unfortunately, though he tried multiple times, he failed to enter the correct passcode.
Without luck, he decided to break the lock apart with force.
Snap! Halston paused briefly before flipping the diary open.
After all, a diary encapsulated an individual’s privacy.
It was rude to peek at another person’s diary.
However, he wasn’t exactly the most reasonable person right now.
Having made up his mind, he proceeded to read the entire diary…
Anyway, he’d already made the first wrong move.
He might as well commit to the end! However, Halston was a little surprised.
It wasn’t a diary, after all, but a novel script.
This novel was none other than the one about him and Flossie that he used to read.
He even recalled that the link to the novel was deleted just as he was getting to the thick of it.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t retrieve the link.
Consequently, he wasn’t able to read the remaining chapters of the novel.
Although Halston had found out long ago that Flossie was the author, he never exposed her.He never expected to one day read the script of the novel! Without the slightest bit of hesitation, he began to read it.
Flossie’s writing was neat and easy to read.He had no trouble recognizing it.He recalled reading about the first time they met.The second chapter was titled ‘Falling”
“I never thought ‘love at first sight’ actually existed in this world.We met in the most beautiful way possible, but we spent our time together in the worst way imaginable…I knew he didn’t love me, but he had no choice but to marry me.That’s why I can understand why he treated me so coldly the way he did…
“I guess he must have had a lot on his mind—dreams, poems, songs, ambitions, the girl he loved…everything but me.Even so, I still cried tears of joy when we exchanged vows in front of the priest and put the ring on each other’s fingers.I fantasized about the day I’d finally find a place in his heart…even if just a tiny part! “I cried my lungs out.He was petrified when he saw me in that state.Although he was disgusted, he still wiped my tears away and put the ring on my finger.He was cold yet gentle…At that moment…I started falling.”
Chapter Three, The Long Wait.
“I’ve imagined us doing things together after getting married ..watching variety shows on the couch, building complicated castles from Lego bricks, playing games together as a team, feeding kittens together, and even watching him eat all the food I make.
After all that, we’d hold each other’s hand and fall asleep in each other’s arms.
Little did I know, he would always say, ‘Wait”
Wait for him to come home.
Wait for him to have a meal together.
Wait for him to be free…
Sadly, I could count on my fingers the times we actually did something together.
“On countless seemingly endless lonely nights, I fell asleep on my own.
Life was slowly slipping through my fingers, and so was my love for him.
Whenever I felt the love was drying up, he’d suddenly smile at me or call out to me.
It might even be a micro-expression on his face.
That was enough to make my heart race again.
I was too weak.
I loved him too much!”
Chapter Four, Chapter Five, Chapter Six…
Halston maintained the same posture as he read on.He was like a statue.
As he flipped through the pages, his heart began to ache.His vision was turning blurry too…He never knew Flossie was capable of writing in such detail.
In just a few words, she managed to describe their cold marriage with great accuracy.
It was evident how much she loved him from the way she wrote.It was a one-woman show about her selflessly giving, repeatedly getting hurt by him, and continually healing herself! “Bulls*it!”
Halston couldn’t resist cursing halfway through the novel.It wasn’t surprising that this novel became so popular.
The fans would all shout, “This is torture!”
The storyline was too realistic, and the characters were very well-developed.
Even though Halston knew he was the male lead and he was the one who did all these awful things, he still clenched his jaw and felt sorry for the female lead! Fortunately, the story took a sweet turn after that.
The male and female lead had sex, and the female lead became pregnant.
After the baby was born, the male lead gradually started developing feelings for the female lead while they raised their child…
“After the baby fell asleep at night, I decided to make myself something to eat in the kitchen since it was still early.I bumped into him when I opened the door.It was dark, but his cheeks were red.He was probably out drinking.I was in shock.Before I even said a word, he pressed both hands against my cheeks and began kissing me passionately.I…”
Halston’s lips felt dry while he read this part.He even became a little excited.
Although it was only a kissing scene, Flossie’s writing made it feel so realistic.
Halston could totally picture it happening.He quickly turned the page, hoping to read even more exciting content.
It turned out this was where the novel ended! “Damn it! Why isn’t there more? Did she hide the rest of the novel?”
Halston was hooked.He kept flipping through the notebook.He was afraid he’d miss any ‘restricted’ content.
Unfortunately, the novel had, in fact, come to an end.
