Fiancee falls in love with poor student Chapter 4

She cleared her throat, trying not to look too 

flustered. Her cheeks flushed

Sure.” 

I smiled back. I put down the files, and she 

brought me to the amusement park

To help me relieve stress, Sarah took me on 

the carousel

since I’ve come here.I used to think it was 

too childish.Now that I think about it, I used 

to ignore you.” 

She looked away from me

No, I wasn’t considerate.” 

I sighed, thinking about how I’d been so 

focused on school and work

I wanted to make sure she was taken care of

but I forgot to do what would make her 

happy

She looked at all the couples around them

and her eyes turned somber

She suggested playing bumper cars, then was 

drawn to the shooting gallery

く 

In no time, I was carrying a bunch of stuffed 

animals she’d won

And I was sipping a frozen soda, all content

But I was so cold, it was making me grimace

Sarah chuckled, looking relaxed

You never used to go for this stuff. Careful 

you don’t get a stomachache.” 

I rolled my eyes

Who says I don’t like it?” 

Then I looked down, a little embarrassed

I was just pretending when I was around 

you.” 

Sarah blinked. What do you mean?” 

  1. 7

I decided to just lay it all out. We sat down on 

a bench

Remember how I told you I spent every 

vacation studying at the library? I lied.” 

I said, I was with my dad, doing charity work 

in poor areas. My dad worked his way up. He 

wanted to give back

He was afraid I’d turn into a spoiled rich kid

so he dragged me along. I actually had

blast, hanging out with the kids in the 

mountains

く 

And you probably won’t believe this, but

love street food, especially the super spicy 

stuff” 

My eyes sparkled as I told her the stories

Sarah listened, looking soft

I never knew that side of you.” 

I looked away, a little awkward

You were the debutante. I didn’t want you to 

think I was some hick who didn’t deserve you

I have pride too. 

Plus, you weren’t doing so great. I needed to 

set an example for you.” 

something eating at you

I looked over at Sarah

Her brow was furrowed

I waited for her to speak

Finally, she said, That time you saved me” 

Her voice trailed off

I knew what she wanted to know

It was back in high school. Sarah went hiking by herself and ran into a group of guys 

harassing her

I was running nearby, heard her yell, and took 

off

く 

I took a few punches, but got them off her

Seeing how freaked out she was, I took off 

my jacket and put it around her

It’s okay, Sarah. I’m here.” 

That’s when she really let me in

After that, her family stopped putting 

pressure on me. We got engaged

My family’s company really took off, and we 

were able to hold our own with her family

Everyone thought we were a match made in 

heaven

Then she dumped me

  1. 8

I remembered when I caught them being 

intimate. I’d been furious

Chad’s just using you!” 

Sarah just looked at me, deadeyed

And you saving me wasn’t just for your own 

benefit?” 

I looked at Chad. He stared at the floor

Sarah grabbed his hand and they walked out

Soon after, she broke off the engagement

Looks like Sarah still hadn’t worked through 

that

Now was the time

I looked over at her, putting a little sadness in 

my eyes

Yeah, I was totally trying to get closer to 

you.” 

She fidgeted with her fingers

“Because I liked you.” 

Sarah turned to face me. I let a tear trickle 

down my cheek

I know you stood up to those bullies to 

protect your classmates. I admired that

And the year I was volunteering, I was glad 

く 

I choked up, trying to smile

Her eyes filled with tears. She put her hand 

over mine, and leaned her head against my 

shoulder

I’m so sorry, Blake. I had no idea.” 

I felt her warm tears on my hand

I yanked my hand away, giving her a gentle

confused look

Love is precious. Take care of it

Chad’s who you picked. Don’t blame him
