All Chapters of My Punishment Ends when I Die: Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

The pills slowly took effect, and the voices around me gradually faded away.When I woke up, I was lying in a hospital bed. The only person beside me was the doctor. Dr. Charlotte Bellamy, who had seen me far too many times before, looked grim. "Leon, what was it this time? If we hadn't treated you in time, you might not have survived. Do you understand that?" My stomach felt like it was on fire, but I barely noticed. I stared blankly at the ceiling. "Someone sent me an urn and a funeral portrait of myself. They wanted me dead."Charlotte froze for a moment before sighing. "It's your life. Just because someone tells you to die, why would you let them decide your fate? Don't ever do something this foolish again." Even she sounded helpless. Over the past five years, I had gone through several serious mental health crises. The first time, I survived after jumping from the fourth floor, not realizing that the height wouldn't take my life. When I thought about my sister, E

I returned to my old home. The villa was supposed to have been seized, yet it was brightly lit. It was Archie's birthday, and they were throwing a party. String lights decorated the yard, and a movie was playing by the fountain. A few boys were sitting nearby. They were probably Archie's friends. When they saw me at the gate, they looked disgusted. "What is some beggar doing here? Scram! We don't have any money for you!" I ignored them, entered the passcode, and walked straight inside. The moment I opened the door, my eyes met Elise's. She was about to put a birthday hat on Archie. The instant she saw me, her face went pale. The hat crumpled in her grip. Archie froze too, tightening his grip on his fork and knife. The room fell awkwardly silent as they exchanged a glance. I simply sat down, pulled the four-tiered cake toward me, and started eating it with my hands. I couldn't remember the last time I'd eaten something that good. Five years ago, things like thi

I was gone, but Elise's voice continued to drift through my phone. Elise grew increasingly frantic. It sounded as though she had sat up in bed."Leon, what the hell do you mean? I told you I'd forgive you as long as you apologized. Stop playing games and talking about dying. "Say something… What are you doing?" Her voice began to tremble. "Are you messing with me? If you don't want to apologize, you don't have to scare me like this. If you don't say anything, I'm hanging up!" But she didn't hang up. Instead, she became even more agitated. "Why did you turn off the cameras? Turn them back on! Leon, I'm telling you one last time—" "Who's calling, Elise?" Archie interrupted her. As if he were her lifeline, she quickly turned to him. "Archie, Leon just called and said something about giving me his life. Then he went silent. Do you think he might…" "Elise, you're overthinking it!" Archie laughed. "He just doesn't want to apologize. He's putting on a show because he's

Archie was sent overseas to a poverty-stricken region. I heard it was plagued by conflict and that people there struggled just to survive. Before leaving, he knelt on the ground, crying and begging Elise not to abandon him. She showed no emotion, except for the hatred in her eyes. She looked down at him coldly. "If I could kill you, I wouldn't even send you there." Archie never dared say another word. He thought he could eventually find a way to escape and return, but he didn't know Elise had arranged for people to keep watch over him. He would never set foot in the country again. Meanwhile, my funeral began. At the memorial, Elise apologized to our relatives and friends. Dressed in black, she looked even paler than usual. Her voice was painfully hoarse. "I'm the one who destroyed Leon. I failed him, and I failed our parents."So I've decided to donate everything I own in Leon's name. From now on, I'll stay by his grave and give up everything else. I'm a sinner. I only
