I walked out of the company in a dejected manner. As I looked up, I saw Leonardo's car.
"Here comes the loser, don't you want to take a look?" Leonardo's mocking voice came.
As I looked over, I saw Megan sitting in the passenger seat, not even bothering to lift her head.
"Pointless, let's go. To the mall," Megan said to Leonardo.
The roaring car kicked up dust that made me cough.
Thinking back to their demeanor in the living room, I suddenly felt unworthy.
I looked up at the towering building where I had once strived. Now, I found myself in this predicament because of a woman of easy virtue.
Filled with resentment, I thought to myself, "Who give her the right to kick me out with just a whim of dislike?"
The ambitious dreams of the past faded in an instant. When I got back home, I didn't feel like doing anything. I drank when awake and slept when tired.
One morning, a message from Eric woke me up.
Opening WhatsApp, I saw a picture of Megan smiling while kissing.
I quickly called Eric.
"Where did you get this?"
"The news is out. This is a photo from the engagement party of the Fox Group and the Brody Group announced yesterday."
I hung up, wanting to call Megan, but my hands were shaking.
