Martin and Sharon’s relationship had flourished over the past six months. Their love deepened as Martin’s new business began to thrive. However, their bond faced a harsh test when Sharon stumbled upon a secret phone with messages from Jessica, Martin’s ex-girlfriend.
Their journey together began under less-than-ideal circumstances. They had lived together since the unforgettable restaurant incident. Sharon met Martin during a time when he had hit rock bottom, financially ruined.
She saw beyond his financial woes; she saw his confidence and sincere heart. Though it had only been six months, to Sharon, it felt like a lifetime filled with memories.

Much had transformed during this time. Sharon helped Martin rediscover his passion for his work, providing a sense of stability that bolstered his spirit. Together, they restarted his restaurant business, with Sharon expertly handling waitress duties using her vast experience.
One routine day, while juggling orders and kitchen chores, Martin was about to leave for an important meeting but couldn’t find his phone. Sharon began searching his office and noticed a phone in his sports bag. As she was about to inform Martin, he suddenly declared he had found his phone and left. Sharon’s shock was palpable. If he had his phone, whose phone was in the bag?

Everything seemed perfect until this moment. Now, faced with the reality of the second phone and Martin’s secret liaison with Jessica, Sharon’s heart shattered. She needed answers. Grabbing her things, she left the restaurant in a whirlwind of emotions.
Disbelief clouded her thoughts as she drove, replaying every intimate moment with Martin. Had he been deceiving her all along? Their late-night talks, future dreams, his reassurance that she was the only one—all of it now felt like lies. Tears filled her eyes, blurring her vision.

Confrontation and Clarity
Determined to uncover the truth, Sharon tracked Martin’s car to a location where she saw him conversing with Jessica. “It’s true… How could he?” she thought, her heart breaking. She had done everything to support him, yet he seemed to be throwing it all away. Overwhelmed, she turned the car around and headed home.
Betrayal echoed in her mind, conflicting thoughts waging a war within. Everything had seemed so perfect. Could it be that Jessica had returned simply to wreak havoc once again?

Even though it seemed irrational, Sharon couldn’t help but wonder, “Doesn’t he understand that only I love him for who he truly is?”
At home, peace eluded her. Pacing the floor, she couldn’t stop the hurtful images from invading her thoughts. She remembered their shared moments, their laughter, and struggles. Was it all a farce?

Sharon’s emotions were a whirlwind—anger, hurt, confusion. Rationalizing the situation seemed impossible in the face of such intense pain. She began packing Martin’s belongings, determined that if he wanted to regress into his old life, he could leave.
Each item she packed carried a memory of the hard work and sacrifices she made to help Martin rebuild. She had seen his potential when no one else did and had given her all to support him.

Tears streamed as she placed his clothes into the suitcase. “How could he do this to me? After everything we’ve been through?” she whispered, her voice breaking.

Speaking was difficult for Sharon, as if her throat had tied itself in knots. Finally, she told him she knew about him and Jessica and that he should leave.
“Sharon, please talk to me. What’s going on?” Martin’s voice was filled with desperation and confusion.
With tears in her eyes, Sharon confessed, “I know about you and Jessica. I found your second phone!”
Martin turned pale, his heart racing. “There’s nothing between us! You know she left me when I was broke,” he protested.
“Then why the second phone? Why meet her?” Sharon’s anger surged again.

“I don’t know what second phone you’re talking about,” Martin replied, bewildered.
“Then what’s this?” Sharon flung the phone at him.
Martin caught it, scrolling through the messages. Understanding dawned on his face. “It’s Jessica. Where did you find this?”
“In your gym bag,” Sharon’s voice was a mix of anger and confusion.

“She must have slipped it in when I left the gym. She knew how to mess with my life,” Martin said, shaking his head in disbelief.
“But why meet her?” Sharon asked, still skeptical.
“I didn’t. She ambushed me as I left a business meeting,” Martin explained desperately.
Sharon’s mind raced, piecing together the truth. She realized she had almost fallen into Jessica’s trap.

Jessica’s anger rose. “You think you can just walk in here and take him away?”
Martin replied, “I love Sharon. You can’t force love.”
Jessica’s desperation showed. “You can’t do this to me, Martin. I love you!”
Sharon stepped closer, “Real love is built on trust, not manipulation.”
Jessica, realizing her defeat, watched as Martin and Sharon walked away.
As they left, Martin whispered, “Thank you for believing in me.”
