The little puppy I pursued with great effort turned out to be a player. I prepared a role-playing engagement party for him.

I had prepared a role-playing engagement party for him.

As the daughter of a wealthy family with multinational business, I was labeled as an unwanted tomboy.
Determined to prove my worth, I boldly pursued the new intern, Rocco Nash.
He had perfect looks and physique, though he seemed a bit naive.
I flaunted the handsome boyfriend at every gathering, gradually restoring my reputation.
Since he had just started working and had no savings, I covered all his expenses.
After all, we had been dating for a month, and I really liked his sweet words and ways of loving me.
We had already planned to get engaged in a month.
Everything was ready, except his phone was a bit outdated, so I decided to take him to get a new one.
"No need, my phone is fine." Rocco refused for the first time.
When I pulled him along, he shook me off.
His strong reaction made me doubt whether he was a guy who desired for money.
Yet, considering the expensive clothes and shoes I always bought him, I suspected there was something fishy on his phone, which only strengthened my resolve to get him a new phone.
"Go in." Every time I glared, he obediently complied.
I got him the latest trendy phone.
His eyes lit up with a strange glow, but he still clung to his old phone.
So, I gave him a chance, "I'm going to the restroom."
I noticed a look of relief on Rocco's face.
Although I liked him, I wasn't a fool.
I hid in a corner, watching him fiddle with his old phone, likely deleting some information.
I checked my watch and decided to give him another five minutes.
When I returned, he was already engrossed in taking photos with the new phone.
"Throw this phone away." I smiled, pointing at the old phone on the counter.
The shop owner happily took my card to charge it.
When Rocco went next door to try on men's clothes, I returned to the counter.
"Restore all the information on that phone and give me the login passwords for all the apps. I'll pay you the price of a phone."
After Rocco went home, I sat in a café, browsing through his various social apps.
I was really surprised, and it turned out he was flirting with a lot of girls.
I had indeed misjudged him.
My seemingly innocent boyfriend turned out to be a notorious flirt.
Every chat was filled with his affectionate promises.
There was even a locked notebook app, listing everyone's names and information.
He even assigned numbers to each person.
My name wasn't among them.
Was I not even worthy of a number among his playthings?
I copied all the information onto my phone.
Although he should be free in dating before marriage, he had gone too far.
To be honest, he treated me well, and I found it hard to let go.
I planned to give him another chance.
If he remained unrepentant, I would demand back everything he took from me, including my money and my feelings.
I threw his phone out the window.
"Darling, let's have steak for dinner tonight."
Chapter 2
2.
I remembered our first date was at this very restaurant.
He said he liked the atmosphere here.
Then I promised to show him the best this city had to offer.
Perhaps I spoiled him too much.
Rocco watched me eat a juicy red steak, his face showing horror.
He dared to betray me but couldn't bear to watch me eat rare steak. I couldn't understand it.
He still ordered a well-done steak, savoring it with delight.
I deliberately let the red juices drip from my mouth, "Do I look like a vampire?"
"I love you no matter what you look like." Rocco flashed a charming smile that could melt hearts.
In the past, I would have been moved.
But now, his words were just lines he had repeated to others hundreds of times.
"We're about to get engaged. Is there anything you want to tell me?"
I gently guided him, hoping he would confess and show he was willing to change.
Rocco continued eating his delicious steak, shaking his head.
My seemingly innocent boyfriend, you had let me down too much.
Since he was so stubborn, I saw no need to give him any way out.
I waved the waiter over, "How old are you? Can I have your contact information?"
This waiter reminded me of Rocco when we first met-shy and cute.
His way of introducing the products was quite unique.
I wanted to recruit him to my company for sales.
The waiter quickly pulled out a pen and paper from his pocket and wrote down his contact information.
Rocco watched in shock as it all unfolded.
He must have felt his position was threatened and hurried to apologize to me.
"I was just thinking about something. Did I answer in a way that upset you?"
Rocco stared intently at the note in my hand, as if he wished he could tear it apart with his eyes.
I wondered if perhaps I had been too assertive in my relationship with Rocco.
But that couldn't justify his infidelity.
He was freeloading off me, so why should he spend my money on other women?
I ignored him and got up to leave.
Rocco, frightened, quickly apologized from behind.
It was only then that I realized he had indeed changed from a month ago.
It seemed I had given him the wrong impression, making him feel like he was already destined to be my husband.
And my father had promised a lot of money as the marriage gift in front of him, which had gone to his head.
"You're going on a business trip tomorrow. Get some rest early." I said as I drove off in my sports car.
Statistics showed that most of his so-called 'girlfriends' were in San Vidabat, so I arranged a business trip for him there.
In the rearview mirror, I saw Rocco's slightly furrowed brow.
I couldn't tell if he was smart or just plain foolish.
The next day, I sat in first class, flying to the city with him, though he didn't know I was secretly following him.
I didn't assign him any important tasks, and just wanted to give him free time to date his "girlfriends".
As expected, as soon as his work was done, he embarked on his romantic journeys.
By the end of the day, I had counted that he had gone on dates with four different girls.
While I marveled at his audacity, I recorded everything on video, capturing every moment both outside and inside a house.
Chapter 3
3.
His first date was with a college student.
He drove the sports car, acting all gentlemanly, which was truly laughable.
I bought the car for his business convenience, but it had become his tool for picking up girls.
I remembered when we first met, he didn't even know how to open the car door, and now he handled it like a pro.
I watched coldly as they strolled, drank coffee, and ate ice cream, like a couple in love.
And they were spending my hard-earned money.
Rocco's way of swiping the card was completely different from when he was with me.
No wonder he always withdrew the money I gave him and deposited it into his own account, because he was afraid I might track his spending.
He was somewhat clever in that regard.
His tactics for wooing girls were also quite thoughtful.
For this student-like girl, he took her to places like the botanical garden and amusement park, places that exuded innocence.
An hour later, he dropped her back at campus and seamlessly moved on to his next target.
The second girl was completely different from the first.
Her revealing outfit made her look like a rebellious teenager.
They went straight to a hotel.
Did he not know that hotel was mine? How foolish. I had the hotel manager install a camera in the room while he was checking in.
I could watch their performance right on my phone.
It was quite a show.
I even considered making it a video to sell for recouping some of the money I wasted on him.
This encounter lasted only an hour, just a mere exchange of desires.
The third girl seemed to be someone he was pursuing.
He walked into her workplace with flowers, holding a banner, looking like a lovesick puppy.
Watching them embrace passionately, I almost wanted to invest in a movie for him to star in.
During the meal with this girl, he even called me.
"Darling, I've finished the company's business. I'm planning to catch the 4 PM flight back. I miss you."
Though I was disgusted, the act wasn't over yet.
"I'm in meetings until late today. You can come back tomorrow."
A single day wasn't enough for all his dates, because there were three more girls on his girlfriend list.
Sure enough, after dropping off the third girl, he rushed to meet the other three, respectively at a bar, a karaoke place, and a cinema.
I could almost understand his mindset now. Each girl was of a different type, and offered a different feeling in a different venue.
He really knew how to flirt.
After all the dates, he returned to the hotel and even called for an prostitute.
I rushed to the clinic that night to get tested for any diseases. I didn't want to die young because of him.
Everything was normal, but I was still furious.
Who would have thought a fresh graduate could lead such a decadent life?
I had trusted him and never investigated his past.
In hindsight, I shouldn't have wasted so much time on him.
But I couldn't stand being deceived by someone like him.
I made a call, "Dig into Rocco's background. I want every detail."
