Clyde never thought he would feel this way about Arianne, the girl who once made his heart race with every glance. But as her laughter echoes in his mind—laughter shared with a younger intern, Hudson—Clyde realizes the affection he once held is fading. With each missed birthday celebration and every text left unanswered, the weight of disappointment becomes unbearable, forcing him to reconsider everything he thought he knew about love and loyalty.

Now, on the brink of leaving for a long-awaited trip abroad, Clyde must confront the cracks in their relationship. Can he truly walk away from six years of memories, or will the familiarity bind him tighter? As he finds solace among new friends at a company retreat, the allure of freedom pulls at his heartstrings, igniting a long-buried desire for something more.

Will Clyde finally embrace the adventure he's been missing, or will he allow Arianne’s shadow to linger, threatening to derail his newfound sense of self? In a world where love and betrayal collide, the choices he makes could either set him free or trap him in the chains of his own heart.

I Caught My Girlfriend Proposing to Her InternChapter 1

When Arianne Winston once again chose the intern with nothing more than a scraped elbow after the car accident, leaving me, the one actually injured, completely unattended, something inside me finally shifted.

At that moment, I realized I didn't love her as much anymore.

A little later, I saw the intern flaunting a cheek-to-cheek selfie on her Instagram.

[Meeting you is only the beginning of the story.]

This time, I didn't panic, tremble, or boil with anger.

Instead, I calmly gave the post a like and even commented:

[Next time, take her right profile. She looks even prettier from that side.]

After that, I opened a movie I had saved for ages and watched it with genuine interest.

Right before bed, I noticed dozens of missed calls and texts on my phone.

[Hudson is still young and playful. Don’t take it to heart. I’ll make it up to you for your birthday when I get back tomorrow.]

I didn't reply.

I was still savoring the male lead’s carefree line from the film:

[The world is so big. I want to see it too.]

The next day, Arianne didn't keep her promise. She didn't come home to celebrate or make up for my birthday.
