(Roslyn) WHAT!!!! DID YOU CALL THE COPS ON HIM?!!! (Amy) He said, "He will kill me if I call the cops.

“This isn’t bacteria.” Adrián leaned closer. “What do you mean?” Sofía looked up at him. “It’s a software bug.” The entire room froze. “The simulation system is corrupted,” she explained quickly. “An automatic update introduced an error into the analysis algorithm. The infection pattern isn’t real—it’s being generated by faulty software.” Klein slapped the table lightly with relief. “I knew it didn’t make sense!” Sofía immediately ordered the technicians to reinstall the system using a clean backup. Hours passed while they rebuilt and rechecked everything.

"Your systems will be paralyzed. Your instant noodles will be forgotten. And your happiness will become empty." And just as the voice faded, the alarm in Bima’s kitchen blared loudly. The instant noodles Bima had been cooking, which should have been perfectly done, were now bubbling with a black foam, emitting a horrific, sour odor. The savory aroma of happiness had been replaced by the foul stench of failure. This was no longer just data corruption, but a direct attack on the very essence of Indomie.

A violent cascade of blue sparks erupted from the ruined console, casting frantic, erratic shadows across the cedar-paneled walls of the library before the entire dashboard died, plunging the rear of the room into a deep, heavy dark. The blood-red text warning of the Valletta marriage registry validation vanished, replaced by a cold, green error loop that spun aimlessly in the corner of the secondary monitor: REGISTRY STATUS: FATAL ARCHIVE CORRUPTION. HEIR IDENTIFIER: UNVERIFIED / DISCONTINUED.

Tom stared at the screen in front of him, his jaw tightening as the error message flashed again. “This does not make any sense,” he muttered, running a hand through his hair. One of his developers shifted uneasily beside him. “We have tried everything, sir,” the man said carefully. “The system keeps crashing during final integration. It is like something is interfering with the core code.” Tom’s eyes hardened. “Interfering?” he repeated. “You are telling me someone got into my system?”

The reason the system asked me to smash the police car was so that I would have an alibi. Even though it asked me to self-sabotage, it wasn't trying to harm me. Since I had figured that out, I raised my hand and slapped Maxey in the face with all my strength! "You fake scum!" I repeated the line the system told me to say. "Who do you think you are to meddle in other people's family affairs? Why don't you mind your own business and stop staring at someone else’s wife! You know I can’t produce the documents, so you intentionally try to stir crap. I think the one who took the documents must be you!"

Hoping to limit the damage before it could spread more. Davin screamed in rage and charged her directly. Abandoned all pretense of control. Devoted everything he had to prevent her. Dark magic and stolen Luna power and decades of forbidden knowledge condensed into attacks that would have dropped any mortal wolf dead on the spot. "You cannot fix it," he said. Voice raspy with rage and desperation. “The corruption is in the roots of the tree now. Embedded into the very fabric of the network itself. You would need to wipe the whole system. Reduce everything to its essentials and then rebuild from there.”

“Could he have noticed all this?” Just then, a memory flashed through my mind and soured my mood, killed my urges, and left me a broken girl again. I remembered Chris Westwood and how I was secretly dying for him, only for me to be used and dumped, and now my heart was creating a space for someone else just within a short period. I can’t believe this.

“That’s not corruption. That’s structural loss.” The junior analyst tries again, “We can rebuild from backup—” “No,” I say, sharper than I intend. “Backup won’t fix missing maintenance logic.” Because I can see it now. When the anchor fails, the system doesn’t delete identity. It fractures it into contradictions and tries to keep all versions running at once. The screen updates again. A new thread appears. Julian. At first it looks like noise. A repeated tag buried inside financial routing logs. Then it expands.

“Sign this agreement. It extends your probation by three months and cuts your pay by forty percent.” Adeline Lancaster, the HR manager, casually filed her nails. She didn’t bother looking up as she rolled her eyes. “Don’t think this company can’t run without you just because you wrote the core architecture. “Tristan Rothwell has taken over all your code. You can pack your things and get out whenever you want.” I stared at her arrogant face and let out a cold chuckle. I had been with the company for three months and written every single line of the core codebase. Yet she had stalled my permanent position approval for over twenty days. She wanted to steal my hard work, cut my hard-earned
