As soon as I've registered my marriage with Sophie Walker, the heiress of the most distinguished family in the upper echelons, in the morning, she takes me to the courthouse, where we file for a divorce in the afternoon. I hear Sophie's friends laughing at me mockingly. "Wow, did you seriously marry and divorce Adrian on the same day because of something William said?" "Look at how pale Adrian is! Don't tell me he's about to cry!" Sophie rushes into my adopted younger brother, William Reed's arms at that moment. She whines to him coquettishly, "Now that I've done as you said, this means you'll smile at me, right?" Soon, a smile blooms on William's cold-looking face. I want to demand answers from Sophie, only to feel my sisters pinning me on the spot. Emily Parker, my oldest sister who's a CEO, frowns at me. "Sophie is the only one who can make William smile. Can't you be nice for once?" Scarlett Parker, my second sister who's a top actress, shoves me to the ground. "William comes from a sad and pitiful background, whereas you come from an extremely comfortable one. There are plenty of fish in the sea, so you don't have to cling to Sophie." Iris Parker, my third sister who's a biology professor, wears a stormy expression. "Sophie is supposed to marry William, to begin with. Don't you dare pester them anymore." Then, my sisters stuff me into a car by force. They refuse to let me be a hindrance to William—also known as their true love—and Sophie's happiness. That's when the System, who has gone missing for a long time, finally reconnects with me. "Adrian, it seems that your conquest mission is completed! Do you want to return to your world right now?" As I sit in the backseat while gazing out the window sadly, I almost can't resist chuckling out loud. Finally, the angsty drama that I've acted out for the sake of this mission is over. Now, I don't have to give a damn about these female leads' dramas anymore.

"No! That's not true!" Sophie screamed in despair, "You're back now, aren't you? I've already produced results in my lab. We extracted William's system—"Scoffing, I cut her off. "Your so-called research is just torturing others with even crueler methods and numbing yourself through self-harm."A figure suddenly barged in through the door and ran toward me with a knife in hand. "Adrian! It's all your fault that I ended up like this!"I stared in shock at the strange yet familiar figure in front of me. It was William.His face was covered in alarming scars. One of his eyes was blind, and the hollow socket sent chills down my spine.Sophie was the quickest to react. Almost as soon as William threw himself at me, she gave him a forceful shove.With a shriek, William was sent flying, and he crashed hard onto the floor.He lay sprawled on the floor, blood oozing out of his mouth as he said, "Adrian… Go to hell! They destroyed everything I have, and it's all because of you…"He didn'

Before the System finished speaking, a familiar tugging sensation swept through my whole body.Cold whiteness filled my vision.I was transported straight to the entrance of the ICU at the hospital.The smell of disinfectants permeated the corridor, making my stomach churn.On the other side of the ICU glass doors lay a familiar yet strange body.It was Adrian Parker's body, and his face was as pale as a sheet.Various tubes were inserted into his body and connected to the life support machines nearby.The fluctuating line on the screen was his only sign of life.Beside the bed was a thin, hollowed-out figure.It was Iris.She used to always be in a spotless white lab coat, speaking in a gentle voice as she told me all the interesting things in her experiments.But now, her messy hair was sticking to her forehead, and her lab coat, which used to be a perfect fit, was now hanging loosely on her almost skeleton-like frame.She lay there, slumped over the bedside, as she tight

I went back to the orphanage I grew up in.Ever since the director, Megan Turner, passed away, the orphanage had closed down due to insufficient funding.The run-down building was a far cry from how lively it had once been. The walls were overgrown with moss, and the iron gates had rusted as well.I stood at the entrance as tears welled up in my eyes.When I was very young, I was abandoned at the entrance of the orphanage.Megan was the one who took me in and raised me.She was once the only source of warmth in my life, but she passed away from an illness when I was in college.Before I even had a chance to repay her kindness, I lost my only family in the world.She would always say, "Ade, be someone who carries light in your heart."I remembered those words for years.Now that I had become more capable, of course, I wanted to watch over this warmth in her place.I spent three months renovating the orphanage.Then, I gave it a new name, "Sunlight".I hoped I could shine a

The doctors made me go through several rounds of examinations. After making sure I was fine, they finally allowed me to get discharged.I went to the bank straight away.When I saw the string of numbers in my account, I slowly let out a sigh of relief.The System's voice rang out again. "I'll be leaving soon. Would you like to hear the truth?"I ran my fingers over the bank card, but I didn't say a word.This unreliable system had tossed me into another world and ignored me for 15 years, but still, it had given me another chance at life.After thinking for a moment, I slowly nodded.The System began, "The protagonist Adrian Parker, who shares your name, died unexpectedly, which would cause the world's core to collapse. We had no choice but to look for a suitable person in a parallel world to stand in as the protagonist."And you, sharing the protagonist's name, were terminally ill and on the brink of death, making you the best candidate."The System's mechanical voice sounded

Frowning, I said in a calm tone, "It's just trash at this point. Why shouldn't I throw it away?"Iris' chest heaved, her eyes filled with hurt and fury.She lifted a foot and stomped on the protective amulet, grinding it under her heel. Then, she sneered and said mockingly, "Adrian, you're so spoi

It was just one sentence spoken by the System, but my tears were already welling up.I awkwardly wiped away the tears at the corners of my eyes.Scarlett walked up to me. She was about to say something when William rushed over to her in shock. "Scarlett, how did you end up so badly hurt? You—"Be

Scarlett stood frozen in disbelief.I scoffed, then walked past her toward the driver of the black car, who was cursing. "I'll send you the money for the damages later."Scarlett clenched her fists tightly, her eyes turning red at the corners.I was shocked by her reaction, but I quickly understo
