He Called Me an Old Woman, So I Replaced Him With a Billionaire

Serena is five years older than Kyle, and for a while that never mattered. He called her mature, defended her when his friends teased him, and promised to help pay off the condo she bought on her own. Then Mia, a bubbly twenty-six-year-old, joined his company, and Kyle began calling Serena a nag who suffocated him.

At a party, when Serena gently suggests he slow down on the tequila, Kyle slams his glass down and calls her a thirty-one-year-old old woman in front of everyone. She ends things on the spot. He sneers that at her age no one else will want her, and his friends laugh that she will come crawling back.

Serena walks out without looking back. The next evening Kyle is waiting with an apron and an apology, certain she will soften as she always has. She tells him they are over and to pack his things.
