In reality, Sterling was definitely in a bad mood, but it wasn't a total downward spiral.
He paused, assuming he had just grown numb to the pain after being rejected so many times.
At that moment, Elena tapped into her messaging app and noticed that Jade had just shared a link in [The Fortune Sisterhood] chat group.
[Jade_Get_Paid]: You guys have to see this! Some toxic scumbag is actually plotting to seduce his brother's girlfriend! Tsk tsk... society is doomed! Morals are dead! I need part two right now!
Piqued by curiosity, Elena casually clicked the link, only for her eyebrows to shoot straight up in alarm.
The reason was simple. The poster's thread title read: 'Help! My brother just brought home his new girlfriend, and she's my ex who vanished half a year ago. Should I steal her back?'
The post itself was only a few concise lines: 'When I was with my ex-girlfriend, I hid my true identity. When she found out, she didn't even ask for an explanation. She just blocked me on everything and completely cut contact!
I searched for her for six agonizing months without a single lead. But last night, my younger brother brought his new girlfriend home, and it was her!
My brother is clearly obsessed with her, but I refuse to believe she genuinely loves him! I know for a fact they aren't right for each other. How can I break them up as quickly as possible without destroying my relationship with my brother?'
[User 1]: Bro, what do you mean hid your identity? Were you broke and pretending to be rich? You sound like a scumbag, you deserved to be dumped!
Poster's reply: No. For personal reasons, I pretended to be poor when I was with her.
[User 1]: Oh, so you're a rich kid who played poor to test if she was a gold digger? And she didn't dump you when she thought you were broke, but the second she realized you were loaded, she cut you off entirely. That proves she loved you for YOU, otherwise she wouldn't have walked away so easily. Honestly, I respect the hell out of this girl. She knows what she wants!
[User 2]: Dude, you lied to her first. She's clearly over you, and now she's in love with your brother. You need to let this go!
