Timothy Gibson, my childhood sweetheart and fiancé, dumped me for his secretary, Luna Henn. His excuse? That sweet, considerate girl couldn't live without him, while I was strong enough to get by on my own. Three years later, I returned from studying abroad and had become the youngest chief designer in the field. His marriage to Luna, meanwhile, was a complete mess, and they fought constantly over her family draining their savings. At an exclusive gala, he stopped me, his eyes bloodshot as he begged me for another chance. I swirled my champagne and chuckled softly, "Isn't it funny? Back then, you said she couldn't live without you, so you picked her. "But now? Funny how you don't say that anymore. "So what is it? You finally realized she only needed your wallet? Or are you just admitting you were never that important after all?"
