He Drugged Me For Her Future Chapter 05

He Drugged Me For Her Future Chapter 05

Tyler stumbled backward, almost dropping the 

box. 

How had she found out about the ring? 

He called me immediately. But all he heard was a busy tone. 

He knew, I had blocked him. 

Angry now, he called Madison instead. “Emma knows about the ring. Didn’t I tell you not to say anything?” 

Madison was quiet for a few seconds, then her 

voice came out tearful. “It was not me.” 

“If it was not you, how would she know the ring 

was fake?” His voice was low now. 

“How should I know? Maybe she got it appraised 

herself. Why are you blaming me right away?” 

Madison sounded more hurt by the second. 

“Tyler, if you care about her feelings that much, 

then go find her. Why are you still with me?” 

He heard her crying on the other end. Tyler went 

quiet. 

He had made it clear, hadn’t he? He loved 

Madison. He only pitied me. 

Then why did he feel like his heart was breaking 

when he couldn’t get through? 

Something felt wrong. A sense of impending loss. 

hung over him. 

He pushed the feeling down and tried to comfort 

Madison halfheartedly. “That is not what I meant.” 

The next morning, Tyler was one of the first people 

in the classroom. 

But when everyone else had arrived, I was still not 

there. 

And my phone was still going straight to 

voicemail. 

He went to my apartment on Maple Street and 

knocked for a long time, but no one answered. 

Now he was getting annoyed. 

Over the years, he had always treated me like 

someone precious. 

Every time we argued, no matter who was right, he 

was always the one to apologize first. 

This time, he decided he was not going to chase 

1. me. 

He stopped obsessively calling me and agreed to 

Madison’s suggestion to go on a trip. 

After all, I was so dependent on him. 

Since we were kids, all my weakness, all my tears 

had been just for him. 

After my parents died, he was practically the only 

person I had left in the world. 

He thought I only knew about the ring, not about 

the early admission scheme. 

He already had his excuse ready. 

He would say he gave me the fake ring because he 

was afraid I would lose the real one. 

Once I calmed down, he was sure I would take him 

off my block list soon enough. 

Might as well enjoy some time without that 

shadow following him around. 

He and Madison went to the beach. 

The sun was beautiful, and the sand was white. 

Madison wore pretty dresses and made him take pictures of her, playfully nagged him to carry her bag. Everything was fine. 

But he kept getting distracted for no reason. 

When they ate, he would automatically avoid the spicy dishes. 

Then he would remember, the person who could 

not handle spice was not there. 

When they walked, he would habitually move to 

the side closer to the road. 

Then he would realize, the girl who never watched where she was going, who always needed 

someone to protect her, was not there. 

The day the trip ended was the morning of the 

SATS. And I still hadn’t reached out to him. 

Tyler finally swallowed his pride. 

He got up early, made a nice breakfast, and waited outside my building. 

After a while, he went upstairs, breakfast in hand, 

and knocked. “Emma, wake up. I will drive you to 

the testing center.” 

“No matter what happened between us, you need 

to do well today. We are going to Kingston 

together.” 

No answer. 

He knocked again, louder this time. “Emma? Come 

on, you are going to be late.” 

Still nothing. 

Tyler frowned and knocked harder. 

The banging echoed through the hallway. 

The door next to mine suddenly swung open. Mrs. Patterson, an older woman with gray hair, stuck her head out, looking annoyed. 

“Stop knocking! The girl left already, moved out of state. The apartment’s been listed with a realtor for days. Who are you looking for?” 

Tyler’s hand stopped midair. “What did you say?” 

“I said she left. Do you not understand English?”
