After Fifteen Years, I Wasn't The One He Chose

Synopsis

The day the Pierce family went bankrupt, I was the only one who stayed with Samuel Pierce. For years, I followed him through every rough night and every setback, and I stayed with him while he clawed his way back. But on the day he finally took back everything he'd lost, there was someone new standing beside him—his childhood sweetheart, Charlotte Quinn. I had fought alongside him for fifteen years. Charlotte had waited for him for fifteen years. When she found out about me, she smiled and told Samuel, "There was never any 'going through thick and thin'. She only stayed because she knew you'd make a comeback, and if you don't believe me, test her. She'd rush to marry you." And of course, Samuel came to me. "Fifteen years by my side. Tell me what you want." I said, "I want to leave." He went back to her and laughed, "She's playing hard to get. She's even more calculating than I thought." But I really did leave. Later, Samuel turned the whole city upside down looking for me.
