Her voice was cold and impatient, “First off, I didn’t pay for that trending topic about Emily plagiarizing I don’t have the kind of pull to keep her a trending topic all night”
She continued with a sneer. “If I really did have that kind of power, wouldn’t you be able to get it taken down you
Carter felt a pang in his chest.
He knew it, but he just wanted to see how much his ex had her hands in this mess.
He couldn’t help but feel hopeful. If she really went after Emily out of jealousy, maybe, just maybe, he still mos
Over the past month and a half since they broke up, Whitney had slowly but surely shattered his confidence Carter was desperate to find even the slightest proof that she had ever loved him.
He couldn’t even explain why he needed to prove it, but when he realized there was a chance, the hope in his heart outweighed anger.
“Even if you didn’t pay for the trending topic, you were the one who took that singer boy to a lawyer to make trouble for Emily, weren’t you?” Carter pressed.
“Can you honestly say you didn’t have any ulterior motives?” he challenged.
Carter stared straight into her eyes, like he was trying to see right through her.
But to his disappointment, she responded with a mocking smile.
Then Carter heard her voice, cold as ice.
“No. No jealousy, nor ulterior motives. I’m just sick of you both,” she said.
“Your wedding is next month, Carter. So have some self–respect and stop bothering me,” she added.
Carter was taken aback, “You already know?”
Then it hit him. He asked, “Did my cousin tell you?”
Whitney said with a faint smile, “No. As soon as you two set the date, your dear Milly couldn’t wait to come bag aboup
“Congratulations. You finally got what you wanted. And congratulations to me, too,” she said.
Congrats to me for finally being free from all this drama, Whitney thought.
Carter’s irritation was growing “Whitney, what do you mean?”
Her congratulations crushed his ego all over again.

bat, what? Eager blurted out, totally thrown off.
For a second, he just froze.
He couldn’t believe what he was hearing.
Whimey shot him a scornful smile and said, “I said, I have a boyfriend.”
That photo from a few days ago flashed through Carter’s mind. He suddenly grabbed her wrist, his voice tight “Whitney, are you really going to throw yourself away for some old man?”
“You really think being some old man’s sugar baby is something to brag about? What’s he got, money? I’ve got money too Why don’t you just come crawling to me instead?” Carter snapped.
A sharp, stinging slap landed right across Carter’s face.
Whitney’s eyes went ice–cold. “Carter, don’t project your dirty mind onto me.”
“Since we broke up, I’ve said it a million times. I don’t love you anymore. I don’t care who you’re with, it’s your own business,” she said flatly.
“If you harass me again, I’ll call the cops,” she warned.
With that, she turned and walked away without looking back.
She wasn’t lying. Real life had already killed off any feelings she had for Carter.
She was just out for payback now.
Carter stood still, lost for what felt like an eternity.
His heart felt like it was being crushed by an invisible fist.
He could barely breathe.
How could she just stop loving me?‘ he wondered, dazed.
How could she just let go so easily?‘ he just couldn’t wrap his head around it.
She had once loved him so much. How could things have changed so completely?
His original reason for coming here was long gone from his mind. All he could think about was Whitney having a now, and worse, it was some older man who couldn’t even hold a candle to him.
Jealousy was raging inside him, spiraling out of control.
How funny. In the end, he was the one eaten up by jealousy
