Part 2All I Did Was Love You

After getting the overseas transfer contract from Ms. Lang, most of my anger had dissipated. I had a week before my flight, and I wasn’t about to spend it waiting on Ava.

But when I got back to our apartment to pack, I found the place in chaos.

Asher was standing in the kitchen, holding a plate of burnt chicken wings. “Ava, darling, are you sure it’s okay for me to make such a mess?”

Ava, who was usually a neat freak, just shrugged. “It’s fine. Leo will clean it up.”

“Ah, why can’t I be as good at housework as Leo?”

“Don’t be silly. That’s work even a maid would turn her nose up at. It’s certainly not for you.”

I walked straight past them and into the bedroom to pack my things.

Ava looked stunned. Asher put down the chicken wings and followed me. “Leo, I…” Thump.

I shoved him. But he flew backward as if he’d been hit by a truck, crashing to the floor.

“Asher!” Ava rushed to his side, then glared at me. “Leo, I brought him here. If you’re angry, take it out on me!”

My fists clenched. I ignored them and started throwing my things out of the closet and into a suitcase. A document fluttered out and landed at Asher’s feet.

He picked it up. His eyes widened, and a flush of red crept up his neck. He dropped the paper and turned to leave.

“Asher!” Ava grabbed his arm. He struggled. “Let go! You two are engaged!”

I looked down. It was our engagement agreement.
