Liam: leans against the bar, smirking So, how's the '2024' wallpaper treating you? Still confused why it's there?
Skilliley
oh, this is your phone
raises an eyebrow Now you're taking my phone now? That's rich. What, you couldn't handle the truth so you decided to steal my phone?
Skilliley
no
snickers Oh really? So you expect me to believe that you didn't have anything to do with this? That it was just a random act of kindness?
Skilliley
yes
rolls his eyes Please, like I'm going to fall for that. I know you better than anyone, Skilliley. You wouldn't just leave that wallpaper there without having some ulterior motive.
Skilliley
okay fine I put it there to remind you of us together
smirks Well, well, look at you being all sentimental and whatnot. Aww, do you still have feelings for me?
Skilliley
yes.. I mean, you were my husband
leans in closer, whispering And don't you forget it, Skilliley. Even if we're not together anymore, you're still stuck with me.
Skilliley
looks at him
grabs a glass of wine from a passing waiter Come on, Skilliley. Let's toast to our failed marriage. raises his glass Cheers to new beginnings...
Skilliley
cheers
takes a sip of his wine, smirking So, Skilliley, now that we've toasted to our "new beginnings," I have a little surprise for you.
Skilliley
what is it
pulls out a small box from his pocket Open it. You'll see soon enough.
Skilliley
opens it
smirking Well, Skilliley, inside this little box is a ring. It's the same ring you wore when we got married.
Skilliley
smiles
Skilliley reminisces about the past and feels a mix of nostalgia and sadness as Liam proposes again.
Skilliley
No, Liam. I can't accept your proposal again. The pain and betrayal are too great. I can't relive those memories.
narrows his eyes, clenching his fist Oh, so now you're playing the victim, huh?
Skilliley
Look, Liam, I loved you once, but you broke my heart. I can't just pretend that nothing happened.
throws the ring across the room Well, congratulations on your little emotional victory, Skilliley.
Skilliley
What does that even mean? You're being so dramatic.
storms out of the bar, slamming the door behind him You want to play the high and mighty game, Skilliley? Fine! I'll show you what a high and mighty game looks like!
Skilliley
watches him leave
starts making phone calls, asking everyone he knows if they want to join his "anti-Skilliley alliance"
Skilliley
crying
call someone Hey, listen up. We're starting an anti-Skilliley alliance. Think of it as a revenge club, where we expose her lies and make her pay for what she did.
Skilliley
Anti-Skilliley alliance? No, that's not right...
smirking Oh, Skilliley, you haven't seen anything yet. This alliance is going to bring you down, one scandal at a time.
Skilliley
No, Liam. This isn't...some kind of sick revenge plot, is it?
laughs maniacally Oh, Skilliley, you underestimate me. This is indeed a sick revenge plot, and it's going to be sweeter than anything you've ever tasted.
Skilliley
tears streaming down her face No, Liam. I won't let you destroy me again.
pauses, his smirk fading Destroy you? Skilliley, this is just the beginning. But maybe...just maybe, there's a way for us to heal.
Skilliley
Are you serious, Liam? After everything you've done?
grabs Skilliley's hand and pulls her close Look, Skilliley, I've realized that my revenge may have been misguided.
Skilliley
softly Misguided? Liam, it's not that simple. The pain...it's deep. Deep inside me.
takes a deep breath I know, Skilliley. And I can't change the past. But I can work to make amends. Let me prove to you that I've changed.
Skilliley
Prove to me, huh? How do you plan on doing that, Liam?
lets go of her hand, looking determined First, I'm going to cut off all ties with the anti-Skilliley alliance.
Skilliley
I watch
quickly drafts a resignation letter and hands it to Skilliley Here, read this. I'm resigning from the anti-Skilliley alliance effective immediately.
Skilliley
reads the resignation letter, her eyes widening You're really leaving the alliance? Just like that?
leans in closer, his voice filled with determination Yes, Skilliley. I'm ready to turn a new leaf. From now on, I'll do whatever it takes to win back your trust.
