Chapter 3
Ferris rushed back to her side almost instantly.
He’d take her to dinner, go shopping with her, even cancel crucial pack meetings because Ashley mentioned feeling “a little
down.”
Standing at the window, watching Ferris’s car head toward Ashley’s apartment yet again, I finally understood.
True love is true love. No matter how much I gave, it could never compete with a single glance from Ashley.
At least the three–year contract marriage was finally ending.
I told myself these three years had been nothing but a dream.
Now the dream was over. Time for me to leave.
“The agreement from three years ago?”
Ferris’s voice snapped me out of my memories. I stared at him in shock, my throat tightening.
He… didn’t remember the divorce agreement?
These three years, I’d been counting down every single day, terrified that the moment our contract expired, he’d leave without
hesitation.
Yet now, he seemed to have completely forgotten about it.
I opened my mouth to remind him when Ferris’s phone suddenly rang.
The moment he answered, Ashley’s tear–choked voice came through the speaker.
I couldn’t make out her words, but I watched Ferris’s expression shift dramatically.
‘Don’t be scared. I’m coming right now.”
He hung up, grabbed his car keys, and bolted for the door.
In his rush, his shoulder slammed hard into my body.
I stumbled backward, my spine hitting the doorframe with enough force to make me gasp in pain.
But Ferris never looked back. His figure had already vanished through the doorway.
I steadied myself against the wall and slowly made my way back to the bedroom. When I removed my jacket, a dark bruise was already blooming across my shoulder.

I retrieved the first aid kit and silently applied ointment to the injury, feeling like my heart was being carved open with a dull blade, slice by agonizing slice.
I sat on the bed’s edge, staring blankly at the darkening sky outside until my phone rang.
Ferris.
