The Last Time I Loved Him (Autumn and Ryan) novel Chapter 31

Chapter 10 "These scars are from when your little lover pushed me into the rose bushes."

"This one here -I got it while cooking. I was in so much pain, but you just laughed at me, calling me a country bumpkin who couldn't even handle high-end cookware."

"And this one —I fell and got it while rushing to bring you some documents."

I looked up at Jacob, holding back the urge to slap him again.

"Do you remember what happened that day?"

Jacob avoided my gaze, but I knew he remembered-he remembered everything.

That day, Jacob had said he'd left an important document at home for a billion-dollar project and insisted I bring it to him within half an hour. It was pouring rain, and traffic was severely backed up. With no other choice, I held the documents close and ran to his office, slipping several times along the way. When I finally arrived, Jasmine blocked me at the door.

"A company like this doesn't just let any beggar in. Stop embarrassing yourself and go home. This isn't a place for someone like you."

Desperate, I called Jacob. When he came down and saw me drenched and disheveled, he said just one thing:

"Ivy, how could you be so useless? You've ruined the documents."

I looked him straight in the eye and said, "My biggest mistake was falling in love with you and staying with you!"

"Ivy..."

I knew reasoning with Jacob was pointless, so I pulled out my phone to call the police. He panicked, reaching out to grab my phone.

"Wait- don't do that. I have something very important to show you. If you see it, maybe you'll forgive me."
