He shivered in the icy wind as he strolled down the alley, dressed in old, faded jeans and a white T-shirt that had small holes in it. In addition, he wore a blue beanie and an old boot that was now covered in dirt and dust.Samantha's words kept echoing in his head as he placed his hands in his jeans pocket. He couldn't bear to see his ex-fiancee making out with his boss in his house and on his bed; thus, he left the apartment for them and decided to take a walk around the street and wallow in shame, anger, disappointment, betrayal, and frustration.'Indeed, you are a loser, Adams. Keeping a woman seems to be a challenge for you. You didn't even realize she was cheating on you and kept giving your hard-earned money to her to get fancy things while you dressed in old clothes and boots. You foolishly believed in perfect love', Adams thought.Crazy, self-deprecating laughter erupted from him. He leaned against the pole that was just next to him, slid down, and broke down in tears. How p

How did twenty million dollars manage to find their way to his statement? Astonished, Adams didn't bother to think too much about it as he quickly rushed into his meals.Within three minutes, he emptied the plates, and a minute later, he dressed up in his clothes, ready to experiment with the authenticity of the money.He hopped through different wards until he got to the chief doctor's office; the doctor then directed him to the hospital's financial department, where he'd make the payment.Each passing patient couldn't help but turn around and look twice at the grown man with smooth, silk-like, shining black hair. Tall with broad shoulders and straight legs. Perfect, handsome, chiseled face with a straight nose, an average-sized mouth, and a pearl-shaped eye. His sandy-colored skin tone matches his cool temperament, but his faded clothes and torn boots almost kill the vibes of the guy in every lady's dreams emanating from him.Adams got to the financial department, where he was to

One month ago, the city declared bankruptcy for Sky Enterprise, one of the enormous business corporations in the city. Adams knew the owner of the company. Lucas Walter is his mother's best friend and closest business associate.Probably the only man who had never seen him as a loser. But Adams, being a man of absolute confidence and belief, Adams never once appreciated the old man's concern for him.He will always tell him he doesn't want his pity and that he could live independently, even without his mother, and Lucas has never argued.After realizing the futile attempts of both offers to help Adams financially, he stopped contacting him and let him be.Adams didn't care too much about the old man until he read in the news how Lucas Walter had unexpectedly had a stroke and paralysis and his young mistress was squandering his money on beauty products and luxurious trips instead of paying for her husband's treatment and managing his company.Without liquidity and an absolute leader w

Adams, now dressed in gray suit pants and jacket, a black undershirt, and black matching penny loafers, picks up the invitation card and a gift box that he had prepared beforehand. The event was scheduled to begin at four o'clock, but it had already begun a few minutes earlier.He gripped it tightly, nearly crushing it. He may have acted nonchalantly, as if he was unaffected. But deep down, a huge hole had been created in his heart. He feels pangs of pain each time he thinks about her berating words. He had loved her for not one, two, or three, but for five years. He treated her better than he had ever treated a woman in his life, but in return, he received a brutal betrayal.It turns out that while he was working hard to make things right in their lives; she was having an affair with another man. Adams chuckles, recalling how he had made himself a saint. He never looked at other women, nor did he press Sam to satisfy his carnal desires as much as he wanted to.He respected her 'no s

...at Hotel Emerald Deluxe, a prominent hotel in 'A' city. It was already 6 p.m., and the atmosphere in Hall 1880 was lively and buzzing with chatter and compliments from event attendees. This was the room where Samantha and Evans' engagement was held. The spacious hall had been transformed into a magical ballroom just for this day. As soon as guests entered the hall, they were captivated by the space's sheer grandeur. The high ceilings soared above, with chandeliers casting a warm and inviting glow. The hall was bathed in soft, golden light, creating a magical ambiance throughout. The walls were adorned with floor-to-ceiling mirrors that reflected the room's splendor from all angles. Delicate linen draped in rich, regal colors cascaded down the walls, lending an air of elegance. The hall's focal point was a magnificent, custom-made crystal chandelier suspended from the center of the ceiling. It sparkled and shimmered, creating a stunning display of light and shadow on the glea
