“Tonia, I’ll be wealthy once the game comes out.  That’s when I want to put on a fireworks spectacular that’s even better than the ones in theme parks.  I want to spell out your name with the fireworks so that everyone in the city would know it’s your birthday.
Tonia laughed gleefully as he held her. “Sure.”  Then it’s a deal.
“Yes.  I also wish to buy you a villa in the good part of Busta City.  A very nice one.
“Of course.”  In the yard, I’ll plant a lot of roses.
“Then I get you a Rolls-Royce.”  One that is pink.
Tonia smiled. “But I don’t have a licence to drive.”
“Then I’ll get you a driver.”
“I don’t want that.”  I don’t like being in a small, closed environment with someone I don’t know.
“Okay.  “I’ll drive you.”
“Mr. Blunt, the future big shot, will be my driver?  That would be a great honour.
“Of course!”  You will be my wife.  You deserve everything you get.
“Raph, you’re so good to me,” Tonia said as she rested against his chest.
Raph felt bad about what he had done. He also thought she was too trusting. She trusted every word of the empty promises.
“Tonia, do you really think I could keep my promises in the future?”
“I’m okay with it either way.”  What matters is the thought.
“Trust me, Ton.  I promise to make your life better.
“Don’t work too hard.”  Things are going pretty well right now.  I don’t need a fancy automobile or a great house.  “All I want is for you to be happy.”
“Mr.  Blunt, why are you so sad? “Raph wiped the wetness off his face. “Am I? ”
“Did I say something that made you mad? ”
“No.”
Tyler didn’t feel good. “Mr.  “Blunt, please tell me if I did something wrong…”
“You didn’t do anything wrong.”  Stop thinking about it too much.
“Mr.  Blunt…
“Okay, Tonia, give me another hug.”
“Okay,” Tyler said.
Tyler wanted to hug Raph, but he was the one who held her tightly.
Raph’s back curved a little as he held her tighter. It was as if he were attempting to pull her into his body.
Tyler’s friends always thought she was really lucky. Her boyfriend was affluent and good-looking, and he would probably do everything she wanted.
But that simply made her feel bad about herself. She was just a normal college student. Even if she was pretty, Raph would have met a lot of other pretty women.
Why would he be so nice to a normal woman like her?
“Mr.  Do you really love me, Blunt? ”
“Yes.”  “I love you, Tonia.” Raph’s voice sounded a little raspy.
“Why do you love me?”
“Because you’re the best woman in the world.”
“Mr.  “Blunt, I…” Tyler said, blushing. “Do you want to do it with me?”
Raph was still confused. “What?”
Tyler pulled him away a little bit. Then, she tiptoed up to kiss him on the lips. She was very new to this, but she found the strength to keep trying. But the next second, he pushed her away very hard.
Tyler was confused. “Mr.  Blunt, what’s the matter? ”
Raph frowned and said, “Don’t touch me.”
“But you told me you loved me.  “Since we’re in love, it’s only natural for us to do something like this…”
“Let’s break up,” Raph remarked in a frigid voice.
Tyler never saw Raph again after that day. She couldn’t even get through to him on the phone or see him when she went to his workplace.
Tyler couldn’t believe this had happened. How could the man who said he loved her a second ago abandon her without even a hint of hesitation?
She was only 18 and didn’t know what was going on. Was the love of the rich truly so changeable?
She didn’t get it when Raph said he loved her, and she still didn’t get it after he departed.
Being young had its benefits, like the need to find out what was going on.
Finally, she bumped into Justin near the door of the Blunt Group. She had met him twice before. She knew he was Raph’s business partner and close friend, and at that point, he was her last chance of finding Raph.
“Mr.  McCarl! ”
Justin paused in his steps. “Do I recognise you? ”
“Did you forget about me?”  “Hi, I’m Tyler.”
Justin was shocked. “Tonia?”
Tyler thought Justin had a bit of an accent, so he didn’t say things quite right. She nodded and said, “That’s right.”
Justin grinned. Then he shook his head and sighed. “You’re not Tonia.”
“I really am.”  This is my student ID.  Look! ”
He accepted it and looked at it. “And who are you to Mr. Blunt?” he enquired with a raised eyebrow. ”
“I’m his girlfriend.”
“Tyler?  That’s what it is, then.
Tyler was even more bewildered. “Mr.  I can’t seem to find Mr. Blunt anymore, McCarl.  Could you please get in touch with him for me? ”
“I’m very sorry,” Justin said as he gave her ID back.  I don’t work here anymore.  I came today to quit my job.  “I can’t help you.”
“Isn’t he your best friend?”
Justin didn’t explain himself; instead, he remarked politely, “Don’t bother waiting for him anymore.”  You will never see him again.
Tyler was angry. “I just want to know why.  Why can he end things with me so firmly when he loved me so much? ”
Justin didn’t know what to say to her. The truth was too harsh for her.
“Don’t even bother.”  “Go home.”
