Cathy's inner voice quickly gave me the answer.

"I knew something was off when Brian specially reserved a lounge. So it was for this bitch. Good thing I came to check. I'll find a way to lock her in here later so she can't ruin the ceremony."

Sure enough, Cathy soon found an excuse to leave. And just as expected, the door to the lounge was locked from the outside.

I glanced down at the phone beside me. Had Cathy forgotten it in her hurry… or had she intentionally left me a way to call for hel

    Wesley chuckled lightly, effortlessly washing his hands of the whole situation."You—"My eyes burned with anger, but I couldn't even find the words to argue back.He had the audacity to let Brian impersonate him, precisely because he was absolutely certain that, on the surface, he had never directly participated in this so-called game.The only thing remotely connecting him to this scheme made him look like a victim, not the true mastermind pulling the strings behind the scenes.But… had he really left no loose ends?I smiled and raised my phone. From the speaker came a recording of Wesley threatening the station's executives.He had overlooked the most crucial detail—the milk bottle had his fingerprints on it.The moment he realized the truth, he exploded with fury."What? You dare set me up? You're nothing more than a toy I use for entertainment. How dare you try to scheme against me?"He looked like he had completely lost it."Does that mean you're admitting it?"I smil

    As I spoke, I pulled a medical report from my bag."I've already gone to the hospital for a full examination. It confirms that my memory has been tampered with. And do you know how I figured all this out?"I reached into my bag and took out a bottle—a milk bottle. Maybe they hadn't wanted the hallucinogens to go to waste, so they used milk to make sure I would drink every drop.Back then, when I was hiding from those debt collectors, that bottle of milk had been the best thing I had managed to find. Because of that, I savored every last drop, then kept the bottle as a memento.But later, in "this lifetime", when I went to my hiding spot to look for the bottle, I actually found it. That proved that I hadn't been reborn, and this wasn't a second go at life.On top of that, I sent the bottle for testing. Sure enough, it contained drug residue.Only then did I finally understand that everything I had seen was nothing but a massive plot aimed at me. All the people around me were actor

    A stranger got out of the car."Wesley Eggert?" I asked.The man seemed momentarily surprised when he heard me call his name."I didn't expect you to be this sharp, Ms. Dewan."I scoffed coldly. "I wouldn't call it sharp. I'm just trying to protect the people I want to protect. What brings you here now, Mr. Eggert?"Hearing my words, Wesley seemed even more interested in me, and he took a few steps closer."Why don't you start by telling me what you know, Ms. Dewan?"I paused for a moment, then decided to speak, because I knew that if I didn't, some of my questions would never be answered. Besides, I was going to explain things to Cathy anyway, so I might as well say it here."Stop hiding. Come out," I called toward the car in front of me.Wesley glanced at me in surprise before shooting a signal to the side with his eyes.Soon, two people stepped out of the car.One of them was Brian Eggert, and the other was a woman who looked exactly like Cathy."Who is she?" Cathy gaspe

    Cathy's inner voice quickly gave me the answer."I knew something was off when Brian specially reserved a lounge. So it was for this bitch. Good thing I came to check. I'll find a way to lock her in here later so she can't ruin the ceremony."Sure enough, Cathy soon found an excuse to leave. And just as expected, the door to the lounge was locked from the outside.I glanced down at the phone beside me. Had Cathy forgotten it in her hurry… or had she intentionally left me a way to call for help?Either way, I didn't choose to text Brian and instead tossed the phone aside. I knew it didn't matter whether I contacted him or not. When the time came, someone would rescue me anyway.I waited leisurely in the lounge for nearly two hours before someone finally opened the door.Brian's assistant rushed in."Ms. Dewan! So this is where you were!" he said anxiously. "Mr. Eggert has been looking everywhere for you. You didn't reply to your messages, and when he called you, your phone was of

    In the restaurant, I looked straight into Brian's eyes and slowly took a sip of my red wine."Do you really only want to be friends with me, Mr. Eggert?" I asked.It seemed Cathy's inner thoughts hadn't been wrong. The way Brian looked at me still carried the unmistakable tenderness reserved for a lover.Brian sat there hesitating for a long time before finally working up the courage to meet my eyes."Bree… I regret it. I admit that after leaving you, I realized that the person I love most is still you," he said with earnest sincerity. "I didn't get together with Cathy because I'd found true love—it was just to make you mad, make you jealous. I wanted you to come looking for me. But it seems like I've only pushed you farther and farther away."I raised an eyebrow. I'd expected him to beat around the bush for a while longer. Who knew he'd be this blunt?"Sure. Then dump Cathy, and we can get back together," I answered just as directly."You… You're on board?"Brian's expression

    Over the next few days, things remained surprisingly peaceful.Cathy had already moved out, and Brian stopped bothering me. It was as if the two of them had completely disappeared from my life.That was until about two weeks later, when my boss called me into his office the moment I arrived at work.He said the previous interview with Wesley had performed really well, and the Eggert family wanted to do a more in-depth interview. They even specifically requested that I be the one to conduct it.Hearing this, the corners of my lips curled slightly.Sure enough, they were back. And they were even more impatient than I'd imagined.I quickly agreed to the interview. I even suggested inviting Cathy, his fiancee, to join us as well, as it would add some extra buzz to the program.…On the day of the interview, Brian and Cathy arrived as scheduled."Bree, I didn't expect you to invite me," she said.She had dropped the cold attitude she'd shown the last two times. There was even a fa
