"Host, I warned you that day.

The plot after the mission is unpredictable... including Julian's change of heart."

"However, given your excellent mission performance in the past, I can grant you a special privilege and open the channel home for you again."

"Only, the time is in ten days."

Tears streamed down my face, and I nodded.

"Okay, you have the last ten days left in this world. The countdown to detachment begins officially."

The system disappeared again.

The house returned to deathly silence again.

I wiped my dry tears and began to pack things.

I no longer wanted to leave any traces in this world.

I packed all my clothes and threw them into the trash can.

I also took down the wedding photos of Julian and me on the wall one by one and took out the wedding ring he gave me.

When we got married that year, Julian held this diamond, which was only 70 points but cost his entire fortune, choking and kneeling on one knee to me.

"Mia, you are the only light in my dark life."

"In this life, I am only loyal to you."

This 70-point diamond, although small, carried the most intense love between Julian and me. I always wore it on my hand.

Until that day I saw Bella holding his arm, with that five-carat pink diamond on her hand, shining brightly.

This ring was then completely placed in the drawer.

I smashed the diamond ring hard, and the wedding photo glass instantly shattered.

Finally, looking at this home full of traces of my life with Julian, I felt a sudden sense of relief.

I was unwilling for five years in this pathological marriage and struggled for five years.

Now, finally being able to leave is also a kind of liberation.
