A Love Too Late

On New Year's Eve, my boyfriend, Leon Parker, proposed to Charlotte Rain in front of all our relatives.

I didn’t cry or make a scene. All I wanted was an explanation for the years of love I had invested in him.

Then, I overheard a conversation he had with his brother.

“You’ve been together with Annabelle for so many years. Have you never had any feelings for her?”

“Feelings? What are you talking about? I only kept her around to entertain myself and kill some time.”

“Aren't you worried she’ll leave you?”
