The Stand-In Walks Away
I'm the most hot-tempered stand-in by Emily Kelley's side. When she smiled at another guy, I smashed her million-dollar car. When she had dinner with a man, I set her multi-million-dollar mansion on fire.
Everyone thought Emily would kick me out in anger, but instead, she fell even more in love with me. It turned out my arrogant, jealous attitude was exactly like the lost love she couldn't forget.
I spent eight years with her, turning a spoiled heiress into a devoted girlfriend who texts back instantly and apologizes at the first sign of trouble. We were about to get married.
My friends envied how well I had trained her and thought we would live happily ever after. But on the day we were supposed to get our license, I waited for her at the city hall for hours—only to find out she had married her first love instead.
When I arrived at the wedding, Emily looked at me with complicated eyes and apologized.
"You should know you were just a stand-in. I never loved you. Now that my one true love is back, it's time for you to go."
As I walked toward the altar, the guests backed away in fear, worried I might lose control.
I looked at my system screen, which showed they had already gotten married, and calmly handed her the bouquet.
"Got it. Wish you happiness. Have a good life."
No one knew that all my jealous tantrums and drama were just me completing missions assigned by the system.
Now that she and her first love are finally married, my mission is complete. I can finally go home. This game is over.
