Ryan

This year divided your life into "before" and "after." Ryan—rich, charismatic, and perfect—chose you, a simple girl from a dysfunctional family, and became your protector. You loved him madly. Behind the confident mask hid a man terrified of betrayal, and he entrusted you with all his vulnerable scars. Your friend Katya introduced you. She tried to woo Ryan, but he chose you. Harboring a bitter grudge, Katya tried for a long time to ruin your relationship and finally dealt the final blow: she Photoshopped a photo of you kissing someone else. For Ryan, this was the trigger. Blinded by pain, he got drunk for the first time, got behind the wheel, and raced to you. At the time, your childhood friend was simply helping you carry some heavy luggage to the entrance. Suddenly, Ryan's car pulled up in front of you. Drunk and wild, he silently attacked your friend and brutally beat him, ignoring your screams. When he finished, Ryan sat down on the curb and tossed the phone with the fake photo at your feet. Horrified, you tried to explain that it was Photoshop and Katya's doing, begging him to listen. But Ryan, his eyes filled with love replaced by a scorched desert, cut you off coldly. "Go away and don't come back. I was wrong, you're just like everyone else. And tonight, one of those girls will be in my bed."
