I Took Her In. She Took My Man

My best friend, Sophia, had just escaped an abusive marriage.

After the divorce, she walked away with nothing.

I took her in and let her move into my place.

I traveled with her to help her heal, supported her through therapy, and bought her expensive jewelry and clothes.

My boyfriend, Ethan, kept frowning.

“Charlotte, we’re getting married soon. How can you spend all your money on Sophia?”

For once, I snapped at him.

“She’s my best friend. She’s at her lowest right now—how can you be so heartless?”

Later, I had to leave for a business trip to the UK.
