"The engagement ended. I made it clear to everyone that it was just a business agreement. And just to be safe, I also kept a recording… a recording where you admitted there were no feelings between us. That it was all for show."
Isabella's eyes widened in shock. "You… you recorded me?"
"Yes," Spencer said coldly. "Because I knew one day you might come back and try something like this. I wanted to be ready."
"You're unbelievable," Isabella whispered, her voice shaking a little. "How could you do that to me?"
Spencer let out a dry chuckle. "You know," he said, looking at Isabella with an amused expression, "if I didn't know better, I'd think you were my actual girlfriend."
Then his voice turned calm and cold.
"But let's be clear, Isabella. I don't owe you anything. You helped me rise in position, and I helped you get to the top too. We both used each other. That's all it ever was."
