My Mean Boyfriend Had Two Completely Different Faces—So DO I Chapter 10

My Mean Boyfriend Had Two Completely Different Faces—So DO I Chapter 10

I handled all the paperwork in record time and headed 

overseas immediately. 

Everything was unfamiliar at first, and without Reid Sterling around, the crushing weight of real–life pressure hit me 

harder than ever. 

But at least my mind was finally at peace. 

One evening, after coming home from my part–time shift, the huge college group chat, which had been quiet for a long time, suddenly blew up. 

I clicked it and saw several photos of Reid. 

He was standing outside the Dorm Hall looking absolutely devastated, his face a mask of pure disbelief. 

My former roommate, Mandy, messaged me immediately: 

[Did you seriously not tell your ex about the exchange program? Reid lost his mind when he heard you actually left. He tried to charge into the girls‘ dorms like a psycho.] 

[It took the advisor stepping in to tell him you were officially gone before he finally backed down.] 

I’d assumed Reid wouldn’t care. I thought he’d just laugh it off and spit out a few more insults when he heard I’d moved on. 

Mandy kept typing away: 

[Everyone called you his simp, but you’re the one who pulled the plug and walked away clean. Meanwhile, Reid? God, the look of panic on his face… everyone saw it.] 

I felt nothing. No spark of satisfaction, no lingering sadness. I just replied: 

[Reid and I are completely finished. You don’t need to send me 

any more updates about him.] 

I thought Reid was just struggling to adapt to a world where. his obedient girlfriend had vanished. I didn’t expect him to 

show up at my new campus the very next night. 

When I saw him, I stopped in my tracks. 

Reid was leaning against a brick wall, smoking. Even in a foreign city, his sharp, handsome features were drawing a lot 

of attention. 

“Ella, don’t you think you owe me an explanation?” 

I pursed my lips and shot back, “We broke up. Any decision I make for my life has absolutely nothing to do with you.” 

Reid lunged forward, his fingers clamping onto my wrist like a 

vice. He was practically screaming. 

“You don’t get to leave without my permission!” 

His eyes were bloodshot. He looked like he was on the verge of 

a breakdown. 

“I thought we were just having a normal fight! I thought you just needed to clear your head before coming home!”
