Lahat ng Kabanata ng I Gave Up On The Conquer Target: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

[Got it. I’ll start building your exit route right away. You have seven days to say goodbye to your family.]I listened to the system’s calm voice in a daze.A long moment passed before I could finally manage a weak smile and responded, “Okay.”‘Say goodbye to my family, huh?’ I thought.If my husband, Finnian White, and my son, Benjamin White, knew I was leaving, would they be happy about it?Five years ago, after the successful mission, I chose to stay in this world and spend the rest of my life with Finnian. Back then, the system tried to warn me, but I did not listen. I swore to the system that Finnian would love me forever.I never expected that just a few years later, I would wake up the system and ask to go home.I was sitting in the living room for a long time when Finnian finally returned.He walked over to me, placed his hand on my shoulder, and said with a guilty face, “Violet’s ankle sprain is quite serious, so I came home late. If you’re feeling unwell, we can ju

Benjamin’s eyes lit up. He let go of my hand and ran into Violet’s arms.Violet laughed heartily. She gave me a casual nod and then took Benjamin’s hand. “Let’s cut the cake, birthday boy!”With that, Violet picked up the knife, cut the largest piece, carried the plate and walked toward me. “Diana, the first piece should go to you.”I did not miss the provocative look in her eyes. Instead of taking the cake, I looked at her ankle. “Didn’t you sprain your ankle?”Violet bit her lower lip and lowered her gaze shyly. “I did. Luckily, Finnian carried me to the hospital in time.”She emphasized the word “carried.”I smiled and looked at Finnian. “Oh, so you carried her there.”Finnian looked embarrassed. He coughed lightly and said, “Violet, quit talking nonsense in front of everyone.”I watched the way they looked at each other. It was clear something was going on between them.I endured the heartache. I stopped looking at them and walked toward Benjamin instead.I leaned down an

Finnian called the family driver.The driver sat in the driver’s seat. Finnian sat in the front passenger seat. Benjamin and Violet sat in the back.There was no place for me.Violet looked flustered. She glanced at me timidly. “Diana, why don’t you take my seat? I’ll just call a cab.”Finnian, who sat in the front passenger seat, refused on my behalf without hesitation. He then said to me coldly, “Diana, you can take a cab. Violet just got hurt. She can’t go through any more trouble.”With that, he rolled up the window and told the driver to drive off without any hesitation.My vision went blurry. I squeezed my eyes shut. When I opened them, things were out of focus.My eyesight was starting to fade too.I smiled bitterly and tried to flag down a cab. I waited for two full hours before finally hailing one.When I arrived home, I looked through the window. Finnian and Violet sat on either side of Benjamin. They looked like a close family of three.I said nothing. I simply wal

The system said the world that I abandoned was about to collapse. It hoped I could go back and take a look.I no longer remembered what had happened in the other world. But the system pleaded with me and offered me generous rewards.I nodded and agreed. I only made one request.I wanted to take Margot with me.The system agreed. In the blink of an eye, we arrived in the other world.Margot and I stood in front of the same tree stump I had seen before I left.New branches had grown from the stump.Margot tugged at my clothes. “Mom, where are we?”Just as I was about to shake my head in reply, I heard someone call out my name in disbelief.“Diana?!”I turned and met a pair of eyes filled with tears.Before I could say anything, a little boy rushed over.He roughly shoved Margot aside and desperately grabbed hold of my clothes.“Mom, I knew you weren’t dead! You came back to see me, didn’t you? I missed you so much! I’ll never make you angry again!”The little boy rambled on

Finnian, who had planted the tree himself, looked up at me. He waved excitedly and said, “Diana, come down and pick some cherries!”I looked away indifferently. I met Margot’s sleepy gaze and said softly, “Sweetie, did all that noise wake you up?”I closed the window tightly, blocking out all sound.Margot shook her head. “Mom, I want cherries.”I paused for a moment. Then, I picked up her clothes and dressed her. “Then, let’s go downstairs and get some.”When we got downstairs, Finnian was packing soil around the cherry tree. His expression was cold. The moment he saw me, his eyes lit up.“Diana, look! I found this cherry tree at an orchard. It makes the sweetest fruit. Try one and see if you like it.”He picked a few cherries and shoved them into my hand as a peace offering. He also stuffed a few into Margot’s hand.Margot looked at the cherries in my hand and pouted. Then, she threw the cherries at Finnian.“You’re a bad guy! You bullied my mom!“Mom hates cherries! She’
