A Stab to the Heart novel

---- best private high school in Windleton. It just so happened that the investor of the high school was one of his best friends. At that moment, I realized that my life had always been connected to Gideon. But now, he had dropped everything to rush over to that woman just because of a phone call. He had left me behind. It was as if he might upset her if he were even a second late. I wasn't even aware when Gideon had gotten a fiancée. Just like that, I was deceived by him over the years.

The next time we met, Gideon was picking me up from work as if nothing had happened. "I'll go over to yours tonight, Janice." I gave him a harsh slap on the face. Then, I retracted my hand. Gideon stepped closer , forcing me back against the car. His almond-shaped eyes were trained on my collarbones , clearly implying that I was the one who willingly offered myself to him. I pushed him away and raised my hand, but he stopped me.

"Are you done making a scene, Janice?" Gideon, who used to treasure me dearly, was currently accusing me of making a scene, all for ---- another woman. How did our eight -year-long relationship turn into nothing more than my one-sided love? To him, I was merely a secret lover who wasn't worth being shown to the public. I bit my lip and spat on Gideon. "You're shameless , Gideon!" He grabbed my arm. His tone softened as he said, "I don't want to hurt you.

If you're willing, we can still go back to how things were." Was he asking me to be his secret lover like how it was before? Gideon continued to persuade me. "You should understand that someone like me needs to marry someone with a similar status and position. "The Hoffmans and the Millers have been close for generations, and Miriam is taking over the Hoffmans' subsidiary. Marrying her is the perfect arrangement." Iasked, "What about me then?"
