The next day, Michelle stood in front of Evan's house, took a deep breath, and rang the doorbell. Her heart was racing, and her palms were sweating.
The door opened, and Evan's face appeared before her. He looked a bit tired, but when he saw Michelle, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Michelle? What's wrong?" Evan's voice carried concern.
Michelle hesitated for a moment, then finally spoke: "We need to talk, Evan. About Victoria."
Evan's expression instantly became serious, and he nodded, allowing Michelle to enter the room.
In the living room, the two of them sat on opposite sofas. Evan's gaze was fixed on Michelle, waiting for her to speak. Michelle took a deep breath and began to recount her discoveries over the past few days.
"Evan, I found that Victoria may not be as you imagined," Michelle's voice was steady but with a hint of trembling.
Evan frowned, his expression filled with confusion and unease, "What do you mean?"
Michelle handed the detective's report to Evan. "I hired a private detective. He found that Victoria has complex relationships with multiple men, even involving financial transactions."
Evan took the report and browsed through the shocking details. His face gradually turned pale, and the report shook in his trembling hands.
"This... this can't be possible..." Evan's voice was barely audible.
Michelle said softly, "I know this is hard to accept, Evan. But I feel you have the right to know the truth. The father of the child may not be you."
Evan looked up, his eyes filled with pain and confusion. "What does this mean? I was ready to take responsibility. Is all of this a lie?"
Michelle gently reached out and placed her hand on Evan's. "I'm sorry, Evan. I know this is difficult for you, but you deserve to face the truth. You deserve better."
Evan lowered his head as tears slid down his cheeks. "I've been avoiding it all along, unwilling to face the truth. I was afraid of losing everything, but now it seems I never really had anything to begin with."
Michelle felt a pang in her heart. She knew her words were harsh for Evan, but she believed that no matter the outcome, Evan needed to know the truth as the first step to getting out of this situation.
Two people sat on the sofa in silence for a while. The lingering glow of the sunset shone through the window, casting long shadows of them.
"Evan, I know this is hard to believe, but it's the truth. I have no reason to deceive you," Michelle's voice was calm yet firm, trying to dispel the fog in Evan's mind.
Evan's expression became complicated, his eyes filled with doubt and distrust. "But why? Why was I deceived? How can you be sure these reports are the truth? Perhaps it's just a misunderstanding, or someone is manipulating everything behind the scenes."
Michelle tried to remain calm, a hint of sadness in her eyes. "Evan, I understand how you feel. But the evidence is too clear, we can't ignore it."
Evan suddenly stood up, his movements seemed somewhat agitated. "But all of this is too sudden, too unreasonable. I can't accept this truth. Maybe you're just jealous of Victoria, or trying to ruin our relationship."
Michelle felt a pang of heartache, she stood up and faced Evan. "Evan, do you really think I'm that kind of person? I've always been your friend, your supporter. Everything I've done is to help you, to make you see the truth."
Evan's eyes flickered with conflicting emotions as he turned away to face the scenery outside the window. "I need time to think, time to process all of this."
Michelle walked gently to Evan's side, her voice soft and full of empathy. "I understand. You need time. But please remember, whenever you need, I'm here to support you."
Evan didn't look back, his body stiff, as if struggling with inner pain. After a while, he spoke softly, "Thank you, Michelle. I will consider everything you said."
Michelle quietly left Evan's home, filled with uncertainty and worry. She knew that the path to revealing the truth was never easy, especially when it involved intimate relationships.
Nightfall gradually descends, and Michelle walks alone on the quiet street, her heart filled with complex emotions. She knows Evan needs time to accept the shocking truth, but she also understands that facing the truth is the only way to solve the problem.
Meanwhile, Evan stands alone in the living room, still holding the report in his hand.
His heart felt like it was being torn apart by huge waves, repeatedly questioning the shocking facts. He didn't want to believe, but at the same time, he was afraid that it was all true.
As night fell, Evan's home was shrouded in silence.
The truth and doubts, love and betrayal, these complex emotions intertwine to form a puzzle that is not easily unraveled.
After a deep inner struggle, Evan decided to start his own investigation. He couldn't accept the shocking truth, but he couldn't stand being kept in the dark either. He needed to find out the facts, no matter the outcome.
So, he began a series of inquiries. He first interviewed people who had contact with Victoria, including her former colleagues, friends, and even her ex-boyfriend. These interviews gradually made Evan realize that Victoria's behavior had a clear deceptive nature.
With the help of a private detective, Evan found an obstetrician-gynecologist. In a quiet clinic, Evan sat across, his gaze tense and focused.
"I need to know some things about Victoria," Evan's voice carried an almost imperceptible tremble.
The doctor nodded and began to speak: "Victoria is my patient, she has come here several times for abortion procedures. In fact, this is already her seventh time."
Evan's face turned pale, and his hands clenched into fists. "Did she mention who the father of the child is?"
The doctor shook his head, his expression showing some hesitation. "She never mentioned it. But from her attitude, it seems she never intended to have this child."
Evan felt a wave of heartbreak and anger, he could hardly believe his ears. All the facts pointed to a terrible truth: Victoria was using the child as a means to achieve her financial goals.
"Thank you, doctor. This means a lot to me," Evan's voice was low and hoarse.
After leaving the clinic, Evan walked alone on the street, filled with pain and confusion. All the love, all the trust, now seemed like a joke.
He needs time to digest it all, time to rethink his life.
He feels betrayed, deceived, but at the same time, he also feels a hint of relief. The truth, no matter how cruel, is always clearer than lies.
Evan sat down on a bench in a small park, gazing at the distant skyline, his heart filled with complex emotions. As night fell, the streetlights gradually lit up, illuminating his lonely figure.
A few days later, Evan decided to meet Michelle again. They sat down at the same coffee shop, and Evan's face bore a deep determination.
"Michelle, you're right. I found the truth. Victoria never intended to build a future with me. She just used me," Evan's voice was low, tinged with pain.
Michelle's eyes were full of sympathy and support. "I'm sorry, Evan. No one should have to experience such betrayal. But now that you know the truth, you can start a new life."
Evan nodded, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes: "Yes, I need to start over. I won't let this affect me."
