If He Wants Her, He Can Go Down With Her
Clayton Amos finally agrees to marry me during my fifth year as the antagonist of a novel.
On the day of my wedding, the chandelier in the middle of the hall suddenly snaps and falls. At the most critical moment, he shoves me aside and runs over to protect Gladys Dawson, the protagonist of the novel, and his first love.
Clayton's arm is slashed as a result, and blood pours out of the wound, dyeing his pristine white suit red.
Meanwhile, Gladys remains unharmed in his arms.
I hold a hand against the bleeding wound on my neck and finally accept the fact that Clayton never loved me.
This is when the system appears and asks me, "Hailey Paltrow, would you like to abort your mission now?"
I nod in silent response.
"Since he's going to end up losing all four of his limbs and ultimately wish for death, I'll let him have it."
