Chapter 2

"Lucas, since you're letting me be with Tyler, you need to move out of our house. Tyler is moving in."

My head buzzed violently, blood boiling in my veins.

"I bought this house! I paid every cent of the mortgage! Why the hell should I move out?"

But Chloe just scoffed indifferently. "Because the deed is in my name!"

I choked on my words, my face burning scarlet with rage.

I used to treat her like a queen, shouldering soul-crushing debt just to keep a smile on her face. If she had a bad day, I would blame myself for hours.

Now, having finally paid off the mortgage, I realized I had raised an ungrateful snake.

Tyler chimed in smugly, "Come on, Chloe. Let's help him pack his bags."

"Let's go!"

Without hesitation, Chloe grabbed Tyler's hand and headed upstairs.

Leaving me standing under the night sky, trembling with fury.

The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. I stormed upstairs after them.

Chloe suddenly shoved a mountain of stuff into my arms. "Here, Lucas. Your clothes."

"Your blanket."

"I have to help Tyler move his stuff in, so finish packing the rest yourself!"

The weight in my arms crushed against my chest, disbelief hitting me hard. She was dead serious.

Then she picked up a box of condoms and tossed it at me with a smirk. "Manufactured back in 2023, and it's already 2026! Still not finished!"

"Take them with you. Tyler's size is way bigger than yours anyway!"

My temper exploded. Just as I opened my mouth to confront her,

she shoved me toward the door. "Stop talking and get out! You already gave me to another man, so don't hang around my house."

"Bye-bye!"

Caught completely off guard, I stumbled backward and crashed hard onto the floor, my lower back slamming violently against the door threshold.

Meanwhile, Chloe kept hurling the rest of my luggage out the door.

My rage shattered all restraint.

"Chloe!"

"If anyone is getting the hell out, it's you!"
