In the largest company team-building event in our city, everyone was teasing Shen Yao and Gu Qing for being together. Watching the two of them entwined and holding hands affectionately, I, as the rightful girlfriend, could no longer stand it and flipped over the table. Shen Yao's face changed dramatically. "Sorry, my sister has shaky hands," he said, pulling me away. I coldly shook off his hand and shouted angrily, "Why didn't you call me 'sister' when you were holding me last night?!"

Chapter 1

During the team-building event of the city's two largest companies, and everyone was teasing Grayson Warren and Olivia Curtis about being together.

Watching the two deeply in love, their fingers tightly intertwined, I, as Grayson's legitimate girlfriend, finally couldn't take it anymore and overturned the table in rage.

Grayson's expression changed dramatically.

"Sorry, my sister's hand slipped,"

he said, pulling me away.

I shook off his hand with a cold face and shouted angrily, "Why didn't you call me your sister when you were holding me last night?"

The room was in chaos.

Colleagues looked on with curiosity, their eyes filled with the thrill of drama.

Grayson, took note of the colleagues' reactions, his face filled with anger, pressed his lips into a thin line and, without a word, dragged me out.

"Ouch!" A sharp pain shot through my wrist, and I gasped.

He paused and instinctively glanced at my wrist, still wrapped in gauze. His eyes flickered, and for a moment, his face softened.

The injury on my wrist happened last night when he said he was hungry and made me go to his house late at night to cook pasta, during which I got splattered with hot oil.

After just a brief hesitation, he ignored my discomfort and forcefully dragged me away.

"Stop!"

Olivia, the CEO's daughter, chased after us with a stern face, demanding to know the my relationship with Grayson.

"Olivia, she's really just my cousin. Don't listen to her nonsense, " Grayson said, his eyes darting nervously.

In his panic, his fingers squeezed my injury.

"Ah!" I went pale, seething with anger.

All the frustration I had been holding back came pouring out.

"I am Grayson's girlfriend!" I couldn't hold back any longer and shouted at the top of my voice.

A wave of grievance overwhelmed me, and tears welled up in my eyes, but I stubbornly tilted my head back to keep them from falling.

"What? Maisie Harper, with no background, claims to be Grayson's girlfriend?" someone said.

"Impossible. Everyone knows the Warren Family is arranging a business marriage with the Curtis Family. How could the Warren Family be interested in a woman from such a humble background?" Another said.

My colleagues reacted as if they had heard the joke of the century. Their disdainful and scornful gazes cut through me like sharp knives, piercing my tender heart and tearing it to shreds.

Olivia's calm and beautiful eyes flicked over my cheap outfit with a condescending look.

She scoffed, her lips curling into a cold smile.

"Grayson, is what she said true? Are you willing to give up the cooperation between the two families for her?"

Olivia emphasized the last sentence heavily.

Hearing this, a flicker of panic quickly crossed Grayson's face.

He immediately let go of my hand to declare his sincerity to Olivia, "How could that be? It's all her wishful thinking. I've never acknowledged her as anyone important to me."

Grayson's words turned me into a laughingstock. Yet, I had no grounds to refute him.

I didn't know how I left that place. By the time I returned to my rented apartment, I was soaked to the bone from the heavy rain.

Grayson and I had started out as a couple in love.

At first, I had no idea he was the heir to the Warren Group until I accidentally discovered him openly going out with Olivia.

"Maisie, my family business is having some issues. I have to temporarily listen to my parents and go on a blind date with Olivia. But don't worry, it's just a temporary measure."

At the time, Grayson was so anxious he almost swore an oath.

Now, I regretted it a thousand times over. I should have made him swear and left him to face the consequences.

Grayson had introduced me to his parents, but they didn't like me because my family background didn't benefit Grayson's future.

Looking back now, Grayson never introduced me to his friends, nor did he meet mine.

Every time we met, it was when his parents weren't home, or we would go to a hotel.

I raised my hand to look at my wrist, swollen and numb from the rain. I lifted my other hand and slapped myself hard.

The tears I had been holding back finally spilled out. I collapsed onto the bed, crying uncontrollably.

Yesterday at midnight, he called me to go to his house to make pasta for him. I saw the darkness outside, feeling a bit scared, so I asked him to come and get me.

"I'm too hungry to move. Just take a cab yourself, " Grayson said before hanging up.

I hesitated for a moment, then threw on my coat and took a cab to his place.

When I arrived downstairs, he told me to wait because his parents had suddenly come home.

It wasn't until 1 a.m., after his parents had gone to bed, that Grayson came downstairs, opened the door, and let me in.

While I waited, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being treated like some cheap thing. It was like his secret lover, coming and going at his beck and call.

Yet, when my wrist was injured, he acted as if he felt my pain. He hugged me and showered me with sweet words.

It was only under his fickle and inconsistent attitude that I managed to carry this unbalanced relationship to this point.

But now, I had suddenly realized Grayson was just toying with my feelings.

Since he refused to acknowledge our relationship, it was time to end it completely.
