I would Never See the Guy I had Loved for Years

Kylee Brooks knelt between Kenney Walsh's legs as she had done countless times before and awkwardly tried to satisfy him.

At the moment of passion, Kenney abruptly pushed her away and wheeled himself into the bathroom.

He murmured, "Ruth..."

Kylee was long used to this and turned to fetch his medicine.

She had pursued Kenney for nine years and knew well that he was aloof.

When she went to deliver the medicine, she found the bedroom door slightly ajar.

Kenney's wheelchair was parked at the door, empty.

Kenney pinned Ruth in front of him, and his eyes were blurred as he whispered in her ear, "Ruth, you are mine. You should have been my woman long ago. We depend on each other to become who we are today. I've stayed in a wheelchair to avoid having sex with Kylee. Can't you see how much I love you?"

Kylee was stunned and then suddenly realized something.

Ruth was Kenney's sister-in-law.

She was two years older than Kenney, with a voluptuous figure.

She had lived as a widow for ten years.

She had been married to Kenney's older brother when the latter was in poor condition. Unfortunately, he had died on their wedding night.

The entire Walsh family cursed Ruth as a bad omen.

They wanted to kick her out of the family, but Kenney stood firm against others, although he was only sixteen years old.

No one dared to go against him, and they agreed to let Ruth stay with the Walsh family.

"But... you are already married to Kylee," Ruth murmured, biting her lip and sobbing quietly.

"We both know that it was just a cover for us that I got married to her," Kenney replied hoarsely. Then he kissed her lips.

So Kenney had loved Ruth but couldn't marry her. He remained faithful to her, stood up for her, and even married Kylee to mask their relationship.

Kylee silently went downstairs, as tears streamed down her face.

She found the divorce papers and signed her name.

Looking at both of the names on the papers, she let out a mocking laugh.

The divorce papers had been signed by Kenney when they got married, and it had been the Brooks family's sole demand and now her only leverage.

Kylee clenched the hem of her dress tightly.

After the divorce procedure was completed, she would have no ties to Kenney.

Suddenly, she heard footsteps.

Ruth was pushing Kenney downstairs.

He sat in the wheelchair, and his suit was slightly wrinkled. There were faint lip marks near his lips.

"Kylee, it's about time. Why haven't you given Kenney his medicine?" Ruth frowned unhappily, and her voice was vibrant. She seemed to be satisfied after she and Kenney had done it. "What if the car accident leaves him with lasting effects?" She took the prepared medicine from Kylee and patiently fed it to Kenney.

He obediently took it, and his eyes were tenderly fixed on her. He looked so joyful.

Their affection made Kylee feel like an outsider.

She took a deep breath. How stupid she had been!

How had she never noticed Ruth especially cared about Kenney before?

After helping Kenney take the medicine, Ruth handed the bowl to Kylee.

As Kylee reached to take it, Ruth smirked coldly and released it before Kylee caught it.

The bowl shattered instantly on the floor.

"Kylee, I merely blamed you a little, and you..." Ruth pouted and looked pitifully at Kenney.

He was worried that Ruth might be hurt and hurried over to check her hands. After ensuring she was unhurt, he looked up at Kylee coldly.

Kylee, how can you be so reckless? Clean up this mess!"

He didn't even ask what had happened and instinctively sided with Ruth.

Kylee was extremely disappointed as she crouched to gather the shards.

A piece cut her hand.

But Kylee didn't feel any pain as she saw her finger bleeding.

After all, Kenney had hurt Kylee too many times over the years.

Everyone in the city knew that Kylee was Kenney's childhood friend and his most loyal admirer.

Their families were well-matched, and they had known each other since they were kids.

Kylee believed that they were destined to be together.

So she pursued him for nine years. She braved storms to deliver him medicine, learned to cook for him, and even used all of her savings to buy a necklace he said he liked casually.

Although Kenney had repeatedly refused her, she never minded it.

She loved him with unwavering devotion.

When Kenney was sixteen, his parents passed away in an accident.

Facing covetous other family members, Kenney became even more ruthless.

In business, he became colder and more heartless. He retaliated fiercely against his enemies to the extreme.

Yet, Kenney fell in love with Ruth at first sight.

He said her resilience was beautiful, like a solitary plum blossom, while Kylee was just an ordinary plant who shamelessly pestered him.

He kept her at home, and they supported each other.

A month ago, Kenney was in a car accident due to someone's revenge.

Kylee couldn't bear seeing him injured and tirelessly took care of him.

She dozed off by his hospital bed, only to see his gentle gaze upon her after she woke up.

"Kylee, let's get married," he said.

She thought she had finally touched him. But now she realized that he feared gossip ruining Ruth's reputation back then, so he married Kylee to protect Ruth.

Using his leg injury as an excuse, he never touched Kylee.

When Kylee had a desire while helping him, he frowned and pushed her away. "Kylee, it's dirty..." Then he went to the bathroom to handle things himself.

Kylee had once felt smug, as she believed that he did that because she cared for her.

Now she understood that he refused to have sex with her because of Ruth.

Coming back to her senses, Kylee shakily stood up and booked herself a flight abroad.

After the divorce procedure was finished, she would leave and would never see Kenney again.
