My Shameless Ex

I loved Adrian Shaw for twenty years. I lit ninety-million-dollar fireworks to propose, plastered his face across every billboard in the city. On our wedding day, he publicly accused him of research fraud—to protect his adopted sistet, the women she truly loved. The world believed them. Then I left. Five years later, I return. He’s still handsome and still sorry. He says he never stopped loving me. I say—I stopped the moment you chose her over the truth. And now "I don't recycle trash."
