After Divorce, I Died Before His Eyes

Synopsis

When I was eighteen, David told me he loved me, but he was flat broke. "Carrie, I need you," he said. That one sentence made me, crazy in love, give up my acceptance letter from Northbridge University just to stand by his side and start a business together. At thirty, David told me he was rich now, but love had left our lives. "Carrie, we can't even stand each other anymore. This marriage is just exhausting. I'm done with it," he said. He stood on stage, accepting the award for Outstanding Entrepreneur, delivering his speech. When the host asked him what kind of person his partner was, he gave a soft smile and replied, "Kerry is so understanding, gentle, and always knows when to step back." I knew the person he mentioned wasn't me. Looking at Kerry, whose bold gaze once resembled my own in youth, I gave a small, distant smile. David, this time, you were going to lose me for good.
