I didn't expect her call right after that, "Tommy, what's your problem? Why are you being passive-aggressive by liking that post? Judas wants to come back now, do you think flight tickets are free?"
Her questioning made my throat tighten, "Apologize to Judas immediately. He just helped me secure a major contract last month. If he resigns, I won't forgive you!"
I couldn't even be bothered to expose her lies. Buying couple rings as a 'business reward,' vacationing in Hawaii together, this was basically their wedding and honeymoon.
I hung up the call and removed the like. Looking at the number at the bottom of my call log, I finally dialed it, "Jade, I want to meet you. Do you still want to meet me?"
Her voice on the other end was filled with warmth, "I told you, no matter when, there's always a place for you by my side."
At that moment, tears fell from my eyes, "Then I'll wait for you to come back."
Jade was my stepfather's daughter and an outstanding computer engineer. She moved abroad right after college.
She always took great care of me, but ever since I insisted on being with Olivia, she cruelly cut off all contact.
