Take My Breath Away

Doubt reflected in Erica's expression as she stared at the young woman in front of her. She didn't know whether she should believe Kaitlyn or not. Kaitlyn deftly pulled out her phone from her pocket to prove her innocence. "I have the chat history with my cousin. If you don't believe me, I'll show you!"

Then she turned to a chat page. The person who was marked as Phoebe by Kaitlyn did give her instructions to steal Erica's work.

"Later, Mr. Huo asked the school to expel both my boyfriend and me. As no school is willing to accept a student who was expelled from Y City Film Academy, my parents spent a lot of money to admit me to a three-class university." Tears welled in Kaitlyn's eyes as she spoke. Her expression was so sincere that she almost convinced Erica.

But, Erica had dealt with the Su family's three sisters so often that she had learned her lesson. She was afraid that Kaitlyn was a lying bitch, just like her cousins. So, she simply nodded, even though she had doubts regarding Kaitlyn's candor. Eventually, she said, "I know, but I have to go to class. Bye!"

"Okay, but Erica, can you forgive me? I know that I was wrong!" Kaitlyn begged pitifully.

"It doesn't matter whether I forgive you or not. We are not in the same school now, and we won't meet each other in the future," Erica said indifferently. If Kaitlyn hadn't come to her, they might never have met.

Kaitlyn took a deep breath and sighed, "Okay. I understand your feelings. After all, I did hurt you. Anyway, I still have to thank you. If you need any help in the future, just call me!"

"Well, thank you." Erica didn't want to talk to her anymore, so she thanked the young woman for her offer and turned to leave.

Several days passed, and there was no sign of Matthew. He stopped coming home, and Erica found that she was sleeping alone every night.

One night, as the pregnant woman lay in her bed, she touched her round belly and thought about her husband. The more she contemplated, the sadder she became. After a short while, she burst into tears. 'Matthew is a liar. He tricked me into getting pregnant. Now that I'm carrying his children, he won't even come home!'

She wanted to run away. She never wanted to return with his children.

Erica suddenly sat up in the bed. A marriage devoid of love would not last, and she had to leave herself a way out.

After much thought, she gav

at? He didn't ask you for the money? Shhhh. I need to keep my voice down. Erica is outside!" She then began to whisper so softly that

Erica had to go closer to hear their conversation.

"No, I won't do it, not even if you give me five million. Erica and I are good friends now! I won't do terrible things for you anymore. Is it true that Mr. Huo didn't ask you to pay the ten million? Oh, my God! Why was he so forgiving and generous? Is he still in love with you? Poor Erica!"

Erica's mind went blank when she heard Kaitlyn's comments. 'How could Matthew not ask Phoebe to compensate him? Is that the reason

why he didn't give me the card?'

Erica's insecurities flared again. It didn't help that she hadn't seen Matthew in days! She could no longer focus on either the conversation or the photo-shoot she had planned.

She lowered her head in defeat and set the camera aside. Absentmindedly, she adjusted the aperture and sensitivity of the camera. When Kaitlyn stepped out, Erica said, "I'm sorry, but I've decided not to take any photos today. Change your clothes, please."

Confusion coursed through Kaitlyn, and she asked, "Why did you change your mind?" She seemed to think of something and approached Erica. "By the way, Erica, Phoebe just called me! She asked me to take you to a bar, but I refused. Be careful. It looks like she is planning something."

Erica silently stared at the girl for a while.

Afraid that she might not believe her, Kaitlyn hurriedly raised her hand and vowed, "I swear that I didn't agree to help Phoebe. If I had, I wouldn't have told you."
