You Hurt Me, Then Loved Me

Summary

Warren Ashford was the graceful young gentleman of our circle, warm and polite to everyone.

Everyone except me.

He hated my fragile, pitiful appearance and said it looked like I was trying to seduce people.

He also refused to let any boys come near me.

I endured his isolation and petty cruelty for six whole years.

In the seventh year, I escaped abroad to study.

I never wanted to return to that circle again or live under his shadow.

After finishing three years overseas, I married my childhood friend.
