Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Falling From Cloud Nine

Chloe walked undirected through the streets of NYC. She felt the cold night air hit her face and she took a deep breath. Her feet were aching from walking so much, but nothing compared to the emptiness in her heart.

After listening to Evan and Victor's conversation, Chloe just grabbed her bag and left that place. With the pain in her chest and the confusion in her mind, she just walked, aimlessly, without reason. She needed to stay away from that place, she needed to stay away from him.

Hours passed before she finally sat on a bench in the park. She was still shocked by the way Evan made her fall in love with him.

If it was all a game for him, why did he have to go that far?

Tears were streaming down her face and she didn't have the strength to dry them.

How could she have been so naive? Why did she give her heart to a selfish CEO who only knew how to manipulate people?
