Fiancee falls in love with poor student Chapter 2

I used to make sure she ate on time, carrying 

her medication and snacks with me 

everywhere

But in the end, I lost out to the guy who took 

her on the rollercoaster at Six Flags

Sarah masked whatever she was feeling

giving me a complicated look

“You don’t hate me?” 

I shook my head. That’s water under the 

bridge. It’s not like we have anything to get 

over

Like they say in business, even if the deal 

falls through, we can still be civil.” 

Sarah chuckled, and the atmosphere 

lightened up a little

She teased, Look at you, so philosophical.” 

I smiled back. We weren’t meant to be 

lovers, but maybe we can be friends?” 

Honestly, after Sarah broke off the 

engagement, things went south between our 

families, too. We’d been at each other’s 

throats for the past three years

We went from future inlaws to business 

rivals

Г 

Now, everyone was buzzing about how fast I’d 

risen to the top. In just three years, I’d tripled 

the value of our company

Some of the big shots were warning their kids 

to either buddy up with me or stay out of my 

way

Since I’d come back, everyone and their 

mother was calling me up

One more acquaintance won’t kill me

And honestly, there’s no reason for our 

families to be at each other’s throats

I figured Sarah coming to my party was a sign 

her folks wanted to make amends

Her family might have deep roots, but they 

were in decline, they shouldn’t be making any 

enemies

Seeing my point, Sarah visibly relaxed

She stepped up beside me, and we leaned 

against the railing, just chatting about what 

we’d been up to

It was all very friendly and normal

  1. 3

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a light- 

colored shirt disappear around the corner

I couldn’t help but grin

Things were about to get interesting

く 

After we talked that night, Sarah started 

hitting me up more

She asked for the diet plan I’d made for her 

back in the day, and I walked her through it 

stepbystep

I made sure to tell her the do’s and don’ts

making sure she took care of herself

Sarah pretended to think I was being a nag

but I could tell she appreciated it

Lately, all eyes in the business world had 

been on me

Every financial outlet was reporting on my 

investment strategies, analyzing my business 

smarts

Even my social media presence was news

Sarah was always the first to like and 

comment on my posts

She’d give me a playful jab

[Heard you bought another tech company

You really are a business genius.

[You’re the most eligible bachelor in town 

right now. When are you gonna settle down?

[Who knew the nerdy kid from high school 

would turn out like this?

I’d reply to the harmless stuff, and ignore 

anything that seemed too flirty

There was this whole ickphenomenon going 

around online, and people were debating 

about relationships

I posted a longwinded take on it on my 

social media

A few minutes later, Sarah called, ranting 

about it

She said the guy on the reality show was an 

idiot and didn’t know how to treat a woman

I just listened to her vent, throwing in an 

yeah, totallyevery so often

We talked for over an hour

Then I heard Chad’s voice in the background

く 

Sarah? Still working late?” 

Sarah paused, then said, in a pretty cold tone

What are you doing here?” 

Chad raised his voice, almost accusingly

You were talking to him again, weren’t you?” 

I hung up

It wasn’t my business to get in between them

I started humming, glancing at the clock

I tapped my fingers on the desk

Three minutes later, Sarah called back

She sounded exhausted

く 

you into it.”

lu ulay 

I said softly, It’s okay. I get where Chad’s 

coming from. He’s just worried. Spend some 

time with him. Let him know you care.” 

I added, It’s a little awkward between us, so 

maybe we should cool it for a while.” 

  1. 4

Sarah went quiet for a second. She tried to 

hide it, but I could hear the annoyance in her 

voice

I’m so good to him. He’s never satisfied

Ungrateful.” 

I laughed to myself

I’d been overseas, but I knew everything that 

was going on back home

After Sarah called off the engagement, she 

spent a week on her knees at home, starving 

herself to force her parents to accept Chad

Chad stood outside her house every day

looking like a mess, begging to see her

Rich girl and poor boy, defying the odds

The family caved

This reallife story about the boy who lived to 

be dominated sparked a lot of chatter in 

upper class circles

Every time, people would act like they were 

so touched

Real love is real!” 

Guys, watch your back, or someone else will 

get married before you!”
