"Lucas!"

Vanessa cut him off sharply, her tone as cold as ice. "There will never be a child between us. Because you disgust me."

A deathly silence fell over the other end of the line.

After a long moment, Lucas's voice came through, hoarse and strained, "Is there really no room left to salvage this?"

"None," Vanessa replied without hesitation.

"Even if you say that, I'm not giving up that easily!" Lucas's voice suddenly turned stubborn. "I don't believe you can let go of everything we had so quickly! You said you would love me forever, that you would always stay by my side!"

"Did I?"

Vanessa stared out at the heavy night sky, letting out a soft laugh filled with nothing but bone-chilling indifference and relief.

"It's been too long. I forgot."

On his end, Lucas felt as if his heart had plummeted into an endless abyss.

Every breath brought a suffocating wave of despair to his chest.

How could she forget?

Those were all the precious moments they had built together.

"That day at the Sterling Tech Summit, I saw you with a man..." Lucas probed, his voice tight. "I must have been seeing things, right?"

Vanessa easily picked up on his probing tone.

Since he insisted on knowing, she decided to shatter his illusions once and for all.

"It was me."

"How could you let another man kiss you!"

Lucas roared out of control, his voice laced with an agonizing amount of repressed pain.
