Até que ponto meu marido já me amou um dia? Naquela época, para poder se casar comigo, ele me pediu em casamento noventa e nove vezes. Somente na centésima vez, fui finalmente tocada por sua tenacidade. Tornei-me a Sra. Menezes, invejada por todos em Cidade Solmar. No dia do nosso casamento, dei a ele noventa e nove cupons de perdão. Combinamos que, enquanto esses cupons de perdão não fossem todos usados, eu permaneceria sempre ao seu lado. Em cinco anos de casamento, cada vez que ele saía para encontrar seu antigo amor, um cupom de perdão era usado. Quando ele usou o 97º cupom, ele de repente percebeu que eu havia mudado. Eu não chorava mais, nem implorava para que ele ficasse. Só quando ele perdia a cabeça por sua secretária, encantadora e ingênua, eu perguntava baixinho: — Se você vai ficar com ela, posso usar um cupom de perdão? O homem hesitou por um momento, e uma rara brandura surgiu em seu coração: — Tudo bem, de qualquer forma, só usei uns sessenta e poucos. Pode usar se quiser. Eu assenti com um murmúrio e o deixei ir. Ele não sabia que aquele era o 97º cupom de perdão que usava. Restavam apenas dois dos nossos cupons de perdão.

On the day of my wedding anniversary, I was cleaning my house when I found a picture album. As it turned out, my husband had been religiously taking pictures with the girl of his dreams every year on this precise date. He had been doing it since he was forty years old and he was now sixty years old. His hair had progressed from a jet black to a faded white and yet, he kept up the tradition. There was a written message in his handwriting at the back of the picture that read, “Eternal Love.” Since he doesn't love me, I will no longer bother washing his clothes and cooking for him. I will no longer care for his children and grandchildren. I may have foolishly wasted half of my life, but it was not too late to make a change.

As I was about to leave my brother’s restaurant, the female manager stopped me. "Miss, excuse me, but you haven’t paid your bill." I looked at the unfamiliar face and thought that she was probably new and didn’t recognize me, so I explained politely, "Just put it on the owner’s tab. He knows me." The manager shot me a disdainful look. "Miss, this is a Michelin three-star restaurant. We don’t let just anyone run up a tab." She handed me a printed bill. I glanced at it. Fifty thousand dollars for one meal. Three thousand for tableware maintenance, five thousand for exclusive air purification, ten thousand for a VIP mood-calming service fee, and a bunch of other ridiculous charges. I didn’t even know my brother’s place was such a scam. I couldn’t help but laugh in disbelief. "I’m the owner’s sister. If there’s a problem, tell him to talk to me at home." But she just wouldn’t drop it. "If you can’t afford it, stop acting like you can. And don’t act like you know Mr. White, either." I fired off a quick text to my secretary. 【Tell my brother to either fire this manager or I’m pulling my investment.】

Unexpectedly, the manul seemed to understand human emotions and harbored a grudge against me. Five years later, it suddenly burst into my home and killed my entire family. I lunged to kill it, only to have my throat torn. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day my best friend adopted the manul. This time, I did not stop her from taking it in.
