Chapter 1 of Desperate Betrayal: After Leaving Her, I Became A CEO

I had been a simp for my four years in college.

My dream girl Zoe Carter had finally agreed to date me when I was about to graduate.

However, I had never expected that she was so ungrateful and had never truly loved me.

She had taken advantage of my trust to steal confidential information from my father's company with her lover Terence Sweeney and sell it to others at high prices.

She disappeared on the day the company went bankrupt.

Heavily in debt, my dad was so depressed that he committed suicide by jumping off a building.

My mom went insane.

I froze to death in homelessness.

When I opened my eyes again, I was back in my senior year.

Zoe announced in the presence of everyone, "After the graduation dance, I'll fly everyone to Bali on a chartered plane to have fun there for seven whole days!"

Just as everyone was cheering, I took out my phone and canceled the supplementary gold card I had given her.

I would never be such a simp anymore!

——

"Miss Carter, you are so nice to us. You are my god!"

"Boohoo, I'm blessed with such a great school friend."

"She is not only a campus belle but is also from a wealthy family. Most importantly, she is approachable and has no airs. I thought such a perfect person could only exist in TV dramas before I met her."

...

The classroom was in a hubbub of praise for Zoe.

She complacently enjoyed everyone's flattery.

No one knew Zoe pleased them in such a generous way by simply taking advantage of my money.

In my previous life, I had been willing to do all this and had even been truly happy for my girl.

Now, however, I would never fall into the same old trap again.

After canceling the supplementary card, I left the classroom for the rooftop to get some fresh air.

I had just finished a cigarette when Zoe's message came.

"Where are you?"

Her tone was simple and direct, without any affection for a loved one.

"The rooftop."

I replied as I leaned against the railing and lit my second cigarette.

Soon, Zoe came up.

Her pretty face looked as cold as ice.

"Fein, can you explain why my card was suspended?"

Whether before or after we were together, her attitude toward me had always been the same.

The simple reason was that I was a simp.

Ever since Zoe sang on stage at the freshman welcome party in a plain but elegant white dress with her long flowing hair like a beautiful fairy, my heart was captured by her.

I had always been trying to please her in different ways since my freshman year.

I had paid for her food, flowers, jewelry, the latest electronic gadgets... etc.

Zoe hadn't even needed to spend a penny from her parents during her four years in college.

All my classmates knew I was a real simp.

They had been scornfully seeing me as a laughingstock.

But I hadn't minded and had only wanted to please my dream girl.

In our senior year, Zoe had finally agreed to date me, but under the condition that our relationship must be kept a secret.

I had agreed as excitedly as a child without hesitation and given her a supplementary card of my gold credit card as a treasured gift.

Looking back now, I realized I had been a complete fool.

I puffed at my cigarette and said calmly, "I have nothing to explain. What's wrong with me suspending the card?"

Zoe slightly knitted her brows.

"Fein Summers, what's wrong with you?

"Don't forget that I'm your girlfriend!

"Who was it that begged me to accept the supplementary gold card and use it at will?"

I replied, "Indeed, it was me, but now I have changed my mind."

"Why?"

"Because I found out that you don't love me at all."
