But I will not give it what it wants because I understand now what it actually needs. It needs to be chosen freely, not demanded. It needs a partner, not a host. And if it cannot accept that distinction, then it deserves to burn with me.” It is teaching me, even now, even at the end. It is learning that love is not consumption.

"Don't try to pull that trick on me. If you want to die, then do it far away where I can't see. Also, don't think that using these kinds of methods will force me to compromise and fire Marie.

At that time, he said I was more important than anything in the world. But now, I knew that while I might outshine the world, I would always lose to Amber. Sure enough, an hour later, Amber posted on her social media. The photo showed no faces, just two hands clasped under a sunset. The caption read, "How long will it take to let go this time?"

“The best thing to do is end the relationship on good terms while you still have the chance because I assure you, you will only end up hating each other. It’s an entire shit show babes, don’t do it.” When Lydia noticed that my demeanor had changed, she stood from her office chair and said, “Alright Wendy, thank you for the files. We appreciate your input, you can go now.” Wendy laughed softly as she headed for the door.

In that perfect moment, surrounded by the love of our friends and family, I knew that my past was truly behind me. From today onwards , it's the beginning of a new chapter – a chapter filled with love, laughter, and endless possibilities. I looked into Salvatore's eyes, as he spoke, "I love you Emilia."

But since she had never liked me to begin with, my willingness to leave without a single demand seemed to satisfy her. She didn’t press further and simply agreed to have Lucas sign the documents. From that moment on, I would be free. Lucas, his family, and everything tied to them—gone from my life forever. I nodded and turned to leave. But just as I reached the door, Karen’s voice stopped me cold. "Wait." Her sharp gaze locked onto me, a chilling weight in her words.

“Stop the bald-faced lies, Cyrus. The more you try to explain, the more I look down on you.” His voice sounded choked. “I was wrong, I know. Can you give me another chance?” “Never,” I said coldly and hung up. After that, I took a deep breath and tossed my phone aside. I closed my eyes, but the tears would not stop. I knew that was the end of my relationship. From now on, I had to live for myself. I would be lying if I said I could let go of a six-year relationship so easily. Still, no matter how hard it was, I was determined to let go.
