SIGNING IN: BEING SHOWERED BY HEAVENLY BLESSINGS FOR FIVE YEARS-Chapter 807 - 805: BREAKING UP

"Jackie, what are you talking about?" he asked, exasperated. "I only delayed answering for a moment and you are already shouting at me. Do you have any grievances against me that I am not aware of?"

He wasn’t a fool. He could sense that Jackie was attacking him for no reason. Even if he didn’t answer directly. It wasn’t like it was the first time that he was like that. So why act harshly like that now?

Jackie sneered upon hearing that. She rolled her eyes without care as she answered mockingly, "Yes. I have a belly full of grievances. Waylon, you are my boyfriend for crying out loud, but how many times did we meet in the past year?"

"Ah! What are you talking about? Weren’t you busy preparing for graduation and then this year, you were searching for work? After finding it weren’t you busy with work? What did I do wrong?"

"Huh! Do you dare answer it like that? Even if that was the case, don’t you see that your lack of attention is worrisome?"

"Even if that was the case. Why didn’t you tell me back then and then we talked about it? Why are you bringing this on such a happy day?"

"Happy day, my ass!" Jackie yelled at Waylon, feeling frustrated at this man’s way of talking. Didn’t he see that wasn’t what she wanted?

Waylon looked dumbfoundedly at Jackie, not knowing what she wanted from him at this stage.

"If you have something to say. Then go ahead and say it! Don’t go around beating around the bush. I don’t have time to analyze it!" he said angrily, feeling frustrated at the way Jackie was acting.

Since she came with an agenda. Why not reveal it early?

When Jackie heard that, she was even more furious. No wonder why things were ending like this!

"Fine! Since that’s what you ask for, then I will give it to you!" since it had already come to this, Jackie could only roll with the motion.

"Waylon, I am very disappointed in you, to be honest. You hang around with all these rich kids, but what are you gaining from them? Except for being some bootlicker, you don’t even know how to utilize those chances to prepare a brighter future for yourself.

Instead of doing something wonderful, investing in stocks, opening some small businesses or companies, investing in projects and whatnot. You dare work at a restaurant, earning a measly salary.

As your girlfriend, I couldn’t even smile happily with my girlfriends. I have to watch them shopping for this and that every single time. When they go to restaurants for expensive meals, I have to make excuses all the time because I can’t afford it.

Apart from a handsome face, what use are you, really?" Jackie poured out her heart angrily, recalling all the grievances she suffered because of being with Waylon.

When Waylon heard that, he didn’t know what to say. He couldn’t even refute her, to be honest. Although he wasn’t a bootlicker, it was true because of his false identity and circumstances. There were many things that he couldn’t do for her. But all that was going to end.

"Babe_"

Jackie raised her hand, stopped him from speaking any further, and continued. "I am tired, Waylon. In this past year, we haven’t even met for that long. Either you were busy or I was busy and you just let it go like that.

When we are supposed to meet during the weekend? You will be either licking your friends or working here at the restaurant!" she laughed mockingly as she looked at this supposed cozy restaurant with so much hatred, thinking about how this small place took away the man she used to love dearly before.

"I ..." he wanted to explain himself but she wasn’t having it.

"I am sick and tired, Waylon. I want to walk proudly with my head held high amongst others. I want to go on dates with my man and introduce him to my friends," she tearfully said as she looked aggrievedly at him.

Waylon took a deep breath, coming to a realization about what was going on.

"Jackie, I am very sorry that I have wronged you all this time and didn’t take into account your feelings. I always thought that since both of us were busy with our studies, I could take this moment to forge a path for myself and earn some money along the way.

I have always wanted to cook, open a restaurant one day and cook you delicious food. That’s why I have been working hard. Unfortunately, this caused me to ignore your feelings and made it seem like I was being inconsiderate," he apologized sincerely, feeling guilty for the way he treated Jackie.

She was silent for a moment, feeling a bit touched by his words. After all, she knew his dream pretty well. However, when she recalled how she was slapped by reality when she started working, her expression darkened as she shoved all that pity away from her thoughts.

"I know about that and I can tell you feel sorry but it’s already too late," she sighed as she shook her head, her heart already hardened. "When I needed this sorry, you didn’t give it to me. Talking about dreams, Waylon, this world isn’t the kind where you should be willful and try to live your dreams.

We don’t eat dreams. You need money to do so and tell me how long will it take for you to fulfil that dream when you are earning less than A$2,000 monthly? How will I live? Can you afford everything that both of us want with that measly salary?"

Waylon couldn’t believe that he was hearing that. He still remembered how happy she was when he told her that he got a job at the restaurant back then. To think that today she would think like that. He felt hurt, to be honest, despite understanding where she was going.

"Isn’t this a roundabout way for you to tell me that I am a pauper and can’t give you anything?" he snapped angrily at her and Jackie burst into a peal of hearty laughter.

"Indeed, you got it right. You are too poor and I am afraid I will have to live until my hair is all grey before you fulfil that dream of yours. I can’t feed on your dreams. While you have yours, I have mine too!"

Waylon clenched his fists angrily as he let out a mocking chuckle filled with rage. "Haha, you dare agree to this in front of me? How could you? Have you forgotten where we came from?"

Jackie shuddered for a moment when he yelled at her but then mustered her courage as she retorted, "I haven’t forgotten and it’s because of that I am doing this favor to tell you this in person. Me and you, we are done!"

Waylon’s eyes reddened as he looked at the girl who once chased after him for a very long time until he softened and got together with him. There was nothing about him that screamed money back then and yet she came into his life, softened her until he was head over heels for her, but now that she was into society, she dared to disdain him. Who was she?

"Haha, just because I don’t have money? What makes you really think that I can never make it in life? How could you bring money into our relationship?"

"I dare bring it! I came in here wearing branded clothes from head to toe, but you dared compliment me. Do you even know where they came from?"

Waylon felt his mind exploding. How could he even think about that?

Forgive him for being too used to being surrounded by females who were so capable. He became a bit too oblivious even to his girlfriend. To him, it felt normal for a woman to wear brands. So, he didn’t think much. Unfortunately, he missed an important clue and as soon as he realized that, he felt his stomach churning and bile rising in his mouth as he thought in his mind, ’She made me wear a green hat!’

Jackie, upon seeing his reaction, burst into mocking laughter, and tears pooled at the corner of her eyes.

"You are truly funny! Anyway, I have achieved my goal. You can go and be with whoever wants to be with a poor and unambitious person like you. We had our fun in school, but I have faced reality. Don’t bother me ever again!" she mockingly said as she picked up her handbag, enjoying the dark expression on Waylon, who remained frozen on the spot.

’You deserve this! Consider this my payback for keeping me tied to you like a dog when you were wasting my time!’ she was resentful and it made her happy seeing him hurt like that.

Thankfully, she couldn’t read his mind. Otherwise, she might have gone crazy.

Seeing that he wasn’t responding, she added, "Don’t bother me. Even if we come across each other in the future, pretend like you don’t know me! My boyfriend truly dislikes it when I am in touch with you!" and without waiting for him to respond, she sauntered away and made her way out of the restaurant.
