Chapter 1

Daniel's POVMy girlfriend, Crystal Harper, told me, "The rooms at the old Harper residence aren't ready yet, so Reuben will be staying with us for the time being."Oh, and by the way, tell the chef to prepare something more comforting for dinner. Reuben just came back from overseas, and I'm worried that he can't get used to the local food here yet."Crystal continued talking, but I couldn't hear a word she said.I just stared at the text message on my phone in my hand, lost in thought for a long time."Daniel?" Reuben Knight suddenly called out to me, interrupting me mid-thought. He looked at me anxiously and asked, "Is something the matter? You don't look too good… Is it because you think that having me around is a nuisance after all? Actually, I don't mind moving out to a hotel instead…"Crystal immediately frowned at me. I snapped back to the present and forced a smile onto my face.I said, "No, of course you won't be a bother. If Crystal treats you like a brother, then yo

I texted, "Am I not happy seven years from now?"There was a long silence on the other end after I sent it out. Then, the phone rang, and I saw that it was my future self calling me.I answered the call.The person on the other end of the line sounded tired, weary, hurt, and in great despair."You'll have married Crystal seven years later in a very grand wedding, and you'll also have a daughter named Pearlie."But before I could even feel happy about that thought, I heard him say, "But you're not the least bit happy. In fact, you're in great torment every day."Reuben will still be living in your house, doing all sorts of over-the-line things with Crystal every night, but he would always use the excuse of him being her 'brother' to ward you off."It won't be until you come back early from a business trip and catch them red-handed in your bedroom that they'll finally admit it."I listened to him speak and felt a knife going through my heart."Crystal will be very sorry about it

Chapter 3

Crystal froze.She thought that I was just being temperamental and leaned in to kiss my tears away."Dan, I know that I was wrong. It's just that Reuben's health isn't too good to start with, and I guess I spoke too soon and too harshly because I was so concerned about him, since he's like a close brother figure to me."Reuben's already feeling terrible about it and wants to apologize to you for just now. Just let go of the past and pretend it never happened, alright?"I dodged her lips and pushed her off of me. I came clean with her and said, "I know that Reuben is actually your first love, not me."Crystal's face darkened. She suddenly grabbed me tightly by the wrist and demanded, "How the hell did you find out about it? You investigated me in secret, didn't you, Daniel Summers?"My wrists hurt from her vice-like grip. I looked at her and felt my nose tingling with tears once again."Does it matter how I found out about it?" I asked. "Crystal Harper, you were the one who broug

Chapter 4

Third-Person POVSeven years later, Crystal looked at the dozens of calls she'd made to Daniel that had all gone unanswered. She felt a sense of unease creeping up on her.Daniel never used to behave like this. He would always make a huge fuss about things whenever she did something like this, texting and calling her every minute on the minute until she finally picked up.He would question her and interrogate her every time, demanding to know why she was still torturing him like this, why she had to cheat on him like this, why she was doing this to him, and then cry and beg for her to go home to him soon.However, it was just too quiet today.Daniel never even sent her a single text message today, let alone made any phone calls.Crystal began to fidget.She grabbed her coat and spoke to Reuben next to her, who was holding Pearlie in his lap."I'm going back for a bit. You can stay here and continue with the trip with Pearlie."Reuben immediately got to his feet and stopped her

Chapter 5

A bomb went off in Crystal's head.Her legs suddenly turned to jelly, and the pent-up uneasy feeling in her chest finally tore through as she let out a heart-wrenching wail.She fell to her knees and scrambled over to Daniel's body on the ground, shakily removing the white sheet to reveal his pale face. When she reached out to touch him, she realized that his face was as cold as ice, without a hint of warmth to it.The paramedics sighed again behind her and said, "Ms. Harper, Mr. Summers has had a history of severe depression, and they usually have thoughts of self-harm and suicide. No matter how busy you were, you should still never have left him home alone. It would be far too easy for him to—"But Crystal couldn't hear another thing they said anymore.She glared intently at Daniel's shut eyes and felt her breathing getting more and more shallow. She felt as though someone was squeezing her lungs and heart together. The pain was just tearing and excruciating.There was another

Chapter 6

Crystal's mind exploded.She suddenly felt as though a thousand steel needles were being driven into her head at the same time.Seven years ago? A crash? Disappeared into thin air?Countless jumbled memories churned and collided in her mind. She suddenly clutched her head and crouched down, letting out a piercing scream before falling backward with her eyes rolled to the back of her head."Ahh!"She fell unconscious once again, but this time, she had a very long dream.She saw two of herself.In the first dream, she saw herself completely naked and fucking Reuben in the bed she shared with Daniel. Then, she got up and glared coldly at Daniel, who was standing at the door, so badly triggered that he was having a mental breakdown.She saw herself frowning at Daniel in disgust and telling him to stop pretending to be upset.She saw Pearlie opening her mouth and calling Reuben "Dad" instead of Daniel.She saw Daniel overdosing on an entire bottle of sleeping pills and slowly with

Daniel's POV"This fabric won't do. I said I wanted a size 32! And this garment color is off! I wanted coral, not this dull, grayish, rotten color of persimmon red," I stated. "Send it back to the manufacturer to have it redone. If they can't do it well, then we'll just fire them and get someone else instead."Make sure to double-check the condition of the garments. I will not allow a single thing to go wrong at my show!"My assistant, Ivan Castillo, frantically took notes next to me. Just as I was done speaking, the receptionist peeked into my studio with a hesitant look on her face."Sorry to bother you, Mr. Summers, but the CEO of Harper Group in Canaria flew here without an appointment and wants to see you. She said that… She said that you used to know her."I froze halfway through flipping through that proposal that Ivan just handed me and took a deep breath.I knew that this day would come sooner or later. I shoved the proposal back to Ivan and said faintly, "Got it. Arran

Chapter 8

Crystal stood frozen to the ground, unable to find any words to try to defend the situation. All she could do was stare at me in a daze as tears began streaming down from her eyes.The look of remorse on her face just made me feel nauseated and disgusted."The first time, you cheated on me and emotionally abused me until I was driven to depression and overdosed on sleeping pills to end my misery."The second time, you kept favoring Reuben and taking his side, letting him harass me and then later chose to save him instead of me at the most critical moment."Weren't you the one who did every single one of those things to me? So, what are you remorseful about now? Why are you even feeling bad or suffering about it?"Every word I said made her face grow another shade paler. Her body trembled hard as I continued with my tirade."You've already destroyed my life twice. I'm begging you, Crystal Harper, to please just let me go this time. I really hate you a lot."She couldn't come up w

Chapter 9

After that day, Crystal stopped appearing directly before me again as she did before. However, this "peace" was only on the surface.Not too long after that, Harper Group offered my studio a huge collaboration opportunity, and the terms were so lenient that it felt less like a business negotiation and more like an unconditional gift.The remuneration was five times the amount a top-tier fashion studio could charge in the industry, and there were also no restrictions on the content. However, I coldly rejected the proposal before the stunned Ivan and returned it without even looking at it.In the end, Crystal finally couldn't hold back anymore and called my private number.I answered the call, but I turned on the speakerphone and left her on the table. I couldn't even be bothered to hold her to my ear.Her cautious voice came through the phone, accompanied by the howling wind in the background. It sounded like she was caught in the rain somewhere."Dan, this is just a normal busine
