Selena drank as she cursed, “That scumbag Derek-I went through so much with him, and in the end, I still couldn’t compete with one coy word from his precious first love.

“Autumn, don’t you think all men are the same trash? Julian was like that, and so is Derek.

“I begged my brother to help with his project. My brother warned me that he wasn’t a good guy. I didn’t believe him. I thought he was just being biased. But now? I believe it.”

She downed another shot of hard liquor, choking as the burn brought tears to her eyes.

“He’s got too much pride. I never told him what I did behind the scenes, just so he wouldn’t feel like he was living off me.

“And now that the company’s taken off, he really thinks he’s something. Isn’t that just hilarious?

“That bastard-can’t stay loyal to one woman while chasing after another. Men like him deserve to be locked up and left to rot.”

Thinking of all she’d given over the years, it felt like a cruel joke.

Her heart bled from the betrayal.

Autumn reached out to take the glass from her, but Selena dodged it.

“Autumn, let me drink. I really can’t take it anymore. I just want to run over there and tear those two apart.

“Who would’ve thought that the man who once treated me like a queen would end up falling for the same old first-love cliché?”

The more she talked, the more heartbroken she became.

Her tears spilled like pearls from a broken strand.

Autumn reached out to comfort her, her own eyes misting over. “I get how you feel. But Selena, you’re lucky— you have a family who loves you.

“Unlike me. My family turned against me thanks to Luna and her mother. They treat me like an enemy. And yet, I’m still standing, aren’t I?

“Why don’t you come work with me? Let’s build something amazing together. Who needs men? We’ll get rich ourselves!”

Thinking back on her own past, Autumn felt a deep sadness, but none of it mattered anymore.

Let it all drift away with the wind.

Selena squinted, tipped her head back for another drink, then slumped over the table, mumbling, “Sure… let’s get rich together.”

With that, her eyes fluttered shut, and she quickly passed out.

Autumn called a server to watch over Selena while she got up to use the restroom.

As she passed a private room with the door slightly ajar, she overheard a voice from inside.

“Professor Shaw, I’ll take your advice seriously. I hope you’ll consider being my mentor and continue to guide

me.”

“Professor, my little sister has always been top of her class since she was a child. She’s outstanding in every way. I hope you’ll give it some thought.”

“As long as you’re willing to take Luna in as your student, we’re prepared to invest even more into your lab.”

At that moment, all Autumn felt was bitter irony.

When she wanted to return to her career, they tried everything to stop her.

But now that Luna wanted to become an apprentice, they were doing everything possible-throwing money at the problem just to buy her a spot.
