Mission Aborted Chapter 11
“Nina,” my colleague said, “You’ve been with Heath for seven years, but you don’t know that he’s allergic to pollen?”Nina’s face was pale as she stood rooted to the ground.A few seconds later, she started chasing after me like a madwoman.“Heath! Heath, wait!”She yelled in between pants as she choked back sobs.I stopped and turned to look at her.She was all out of breath, her cheeks red from all the running. Even her eyes were red as well.“Heath, hear me out…”She grabbed my arm and pleaded.I pulled my arm out mercilessly. “Explain what? Explain how you don’t know me at all?”“No! Heath, I really had no idea you had a pollen allergy! I… I’ve never seen you allergic to anything at all… It’s all my fault! I shouldn’t have prepared flowers! I… I just wanted to give you a surprise.”She explained herself in a panic, speaking incoherently.Surprise? Giving me a surprise with something I hated the most?I said coldly, “There’s no free lunch in this world, Nina. I’ve sacri

My friend fell silent and eventually agreed to my request.“Alright. I’ll email you the draft once it’s ready.”I hung up, feeling instantly relieved.I was about to order takeaway when someone pushed the door to my ward open.Nina walked in with a thermos in hand.“Heath, you must be hungry. I stewed your favorite soup for you. It’s very nutritious and great for your recovery.”There was a warm smile on her face. She looked as though nothing upsetting or awkward had happened between us.I looked at the soup in the thermos but didn’t lift a finger.Nina started to panic. “What’s wrong? Heath, did I do something wrong or did I cook it wrongly?”I shook my head. “You did very well. Just one thing, I'd never eat something so oily. I’ve never liked drinking soup since I was young.”I looked straight into Nina’s eyes, the look in mine incisive.“What makes you think this is my favorite soup?”My voice was cold, as though I was interrogating a stranger.The smile on Nina’s face

Nina was extremely biased toward Shane.That proved that she didn’t love me with all her heart. What was the point of such a relationship?I remained silent as I looked on coldly at her putting on an act.When I didn’t say a word, Nina held my hand. Her cold hands were shaking ever so slightly.“Heath, whether your memories are intact or not, I’ll take care of you. We’re husband and wife, after all.”She sounded very resolute, as though she had made up her mind about it.Husband and wife?I looked at her, finding her words ironic.I asked, “Where's our marriage certificate?”Nina quickly pulled it out from her bag and handed it to me.I looked at the names on the certificate. Indeed, it was both of us, and the certificate didn't look fake.It seemed to be true that I was married to this woman before me.Doubts grew in my mind.Did I have a screw loose? Why did I marry this idiot?Based on her words, she had used me as a tool for her own selfish reasons. She wanted to be a

Nina carefully lifted Shane’s hand to examine the scratch.Somehow, I felt out of sorts looking at the two of them. The fire in my chest burned even brighter.“He has a screw loose in his head, trying to spill hot porridge all over me. He had it coming.”My tone was cold with thinly veiled disgust and aversion.Shane’s eyes turned red. He choked back sobs and said indignantly, “Heath, I… I just wanted to serve you some porridge. I just had surgery and am still recovering. I was too clumsy, I’m sorry… I shouldn’t have done that. Oh, I’m so useless…”As he spoke, he snuck a glance at me from the corner of his eyes to see my response. His crocodile tears only convinced me further that he was a madman.Why was he being such a two-faced witch? Gross!Before Nina could speak, I rolled my eyes and bit back, “Do you not have arms or legs?“Can’t you do something as simple as serving a bowl of porridge? Of all places to spill the porridge, why did you so coincidentally almost spill it

This woman was insane.Nina saw the skeptical look on my face and panicked. She anxiously pulled out an identity card, then pointed to the date and photo on it.She said earnestly, “Heath, look! We’re in the year 2025 now! It’s written clearly on your identity card. You were born in 1998, and you’re 27 years old this year!”I took my identity card from her and examined it.The man in the photo looked exactly like me, but the look in his eyes was incisive, and there was a streak of youthful arrogance on his face.Date of birth…1998?Since when did I become so old?Disbelief and a profound sense of absurdity welled up in me.I looked at Nina in doubt. Was I really already 27 years old? Why do I not remember anything about it?Nina saw the change in my stance and spoke anxiously, grasping at straws. “Heath, did you really forget everything between us these seven years? And… The system’s mission… Did you forget that, too?”I looked at her speechlessly. What nonsense was she
Mission Aborted Chapter 6
When Nina heard me say that I didn’t know her, she looked shell-shocked.“Heath, what did you just say?”Realization then seemed to dawn upon her. She grabbed my hand again and spoke even more tenderly than before. “Honey, are you still mad at me? I promised you that I’d do whatever you ask of me. You can ask me for whatever you like if that will appease your anger.”I only grew more irritated at her behaving this way. I shook her hand away.“I said I don’t know you. Step aside.”Shane immediately stepped forward, acting like he was heartbroken.“Heath, don’t be like this. I know you blame me. If I hadn’t returned and burdened Nina, you two would have long gotten married and be enjoying marital bliss right now. Blame me instead. Don’t be mad at Nina. If you want, I can die right away!”I looked at Shane with a frown.Somehow, hearing him speak irritated me.“Do you have a screw loose? I said I don’t know the two of you! Why are you two still acting like you’re in an episode
