Se connecterElijah Morris has been fooling around for four out of the five years we've been married. And from the very first month, he openly betrays me. Meanwhile, I spend my time warding people off with expensive contracts, one after another. Eventually, all that's left between us is constant fighting. One day, his younger stepsister, Abigail Wright, returns. And just like that, he finally settles down. That's when the system tells me that I can finally go home. For the next five days, I no longer ask about his schedule. I don't care if he is with Abigail, nor do I care if she is pregnant with his child. I even move out of the master bedroom myself, listening to them going at it all night. The fifth day after Abigail's return is our wedding anniversary. Elijah bursts into the room, tears up our marriage certificate in front of me, and smashes my most treasured vase into pieces. He grips my throat tightly and growls, "Why did you put mango in Abby's cake? She's allergic, and she almost died! How could you be so cruel?" For the first time, I don't argue with him. Instead, I go along with his accusations. "So what?" I then pick up a shard from the broken vase on the floor under his disbelieving gaze. Then, I draw it across my artery. Just like that, I end my life in this world.

Not only did you refuse to investigate the truth, but you also trapped her like a prisoner in this cage, parading woman after woman in front of her!"He grew angrier as he spoke, raising his fist to punch Elijah, but I quickly stopped him. "Calm down, honey." I patted Xander's back and stood on my tiptoes to kiss his face, and he immediately stopped moving as his ears slowly turned red. Seeing us act so intimately, Elijah sank helplessly to the ground, looking at me with teary eyes. "Fran, I know I was wrong. I let anger control me and became violent with you. But these past three years, I've realized that everything I had was because of you. You were so good to me... I was just blinded before." Elijah hung his head low and closed his eyes, adding, "I didn't know I had hurt you so deeply. I was acting the whole time, wanting to hear you apologize t
After fooling around with Xander, we held hands and closed our eyes, returning to my old house. It seemed that environments truly affected people. As soon as I came back, I immediately felt somewhat downcast. Xander noticed this and held my hand to comfort me.I shook my head and told him I was fine. Then, I pulled him along as we toured my old house. To my surprise, the things I'd thrown away before had now been restored to their original state. This was also true for that specific necklace.I didn't know how Elijah had managed to create an identical necklace, nor did I want to know. I just felt somewhat guilty as I held the hand of the man beside me.Just as Xander and I were both lost in our own thoughts, someone suddenly opened the door and walked in with rushed footsteps, stumbling in and collapsing on the floor. He held a bottle of alcohol in his hand, recklessly pouring the liquid down his throat. It was Elijah.Looking at him now, I felt a sense of unfamiliarity. Even
When I woke up, the first thing I saw was my parents sitting beside me, their faces filled with worry. Seeing me awake, both of them started crying."You're finally awake, sweetheart. You've been unconscious at home for three days... We were scared out of our minds!"I looked at my parents' familiar yet distant faces, and the weight on my heart finally lifted. I was finally home, where I belonged. The system chimed gently in my mind. "Fran, Mr. Thomson's illness has been cured. Time flows differently between that world and this one. The six more years you stayed there only took three days here. I've disguised your loss of consciousness as low blood sugar. Go ahead and spend some time with your parents."Overjoyed, I burst into laughter and called out, "Mom, Dad!" I jumped to my feet and hugged them both, refusing to let go. If it weren't for Elijah, I would have come back long ago to loving parents and the privileged life of a wealthy heiress. I wouldn't have had to endu
At this moment, the doorbell rang. Elijah immediately rushed downstairs and opened the door, his face brightly lit with a triumphant smile. "I knew you were just messing with me—"However, he froze when he saw who was actually there. It was a deliveryman, holding a package."Delivery for Mr. Morris."Elijah's face twitched as he silently accepted the package and returned inside in a daze. He opened the package to find a videotape and a small locked box inside.On the box, a line of delicate handwriting read, "The one I love most will know the password."Feeling confident, Elijah inputted his own birthday. However, the box didn't open, leaving him momentarily stunned. Next, he tried his phone passcode, his safe combination, and even my birthday. Yet, none of them worked. Elijah sank to the floor in confusion. He forced himself to ignore the box and play the videotape first. "Please, Fran. I'm begging you. I don't want to be with Elijah... I didn't think it through whe
