"Why not sit down with him, talk it out, and explain what's bothering you? Can't you just tell him what you're unhappy about and what you expect from him? Wouldn't that be a more effective way to solve the problem at its core?" Mindy suggested.Nelly clicked her tongue, her tone dripping with disdai
Nelly froze completely, her body stiffening as if she had seen a ghost. Her lips trembled as she stammered, "You… You…"Did she remember? Did she recall that abduction?If she did… The implications were too terrifying for Nelly to even consider further.Mindy, however, seemed to see right through th
Mindy's ears buzzed, and her mind went blank for a brief moment. The next thing she knew, the world spun around her as she was hoisted onto someone's shoulder. She got carried away with her head dangling down.Before they left, Mindy fixed her gaze on the burrow where Nelly was hiding. Their eyes me
Nelly spat, "You liar! You've been lying to everyone this whole time!"Mindy responded calmly, "I really did lose my memory, but I've recently started to recall everything."Although the details were still fuzzy, she decided to test Nelly—and what a result it yielded.Nelly stammered, "W-What do you
"I actually thought about the possibility of you surviving," Nelly said, her voice laced with disdain. "Maybe as a cripple, maybe sold to some remote mountain village, or maybe even as a beggar… but I never imagined you'd end up living so comfortably."Minnie, why do you have such amazing luck? Even
"How dare you?" Timothy's veins bulged with rage. Each word was squeezed out between clenched teeth.Nelly's eyes flickered briefly before feigning confusion. "Honey, what are you talking about?"Timothy let out a cold laugh. "Honey? If you weren't feeling guilty, would you still call me that after
"Why? Why would you do this? She's your sister!" Timothy screamed."My sister? Yes, she is. She's a Garrison, a true-born Garrison. She'll always overshadow me in every way! Even you love her—why!" Nelly shrieked back."Because of that? You wanted her dead?""That's right! I envied her! I was jealou
On most days, Zach would sleep during the day and pick up Winter from work in the evening. Then, they would spend a wild night in the apartment.Afterward, they were too exhausted to do anything but sleep until noon.Zach cleared his throat. Yeah, he had been pretty busy."Well… work's been a little
"What the hell! Winter? Hello? Hello!" Zach shouted into his phone. But she had already hung up before he could finish cursing. That feeling was like…An urge to go, only to have to hold it back forcibly. Zach slammed his fist onto the steering wheel in frustration. The steering wheel, of course,
Paul said, "No? Then come over to my place tonight, and we'll take a closer look."Miranda was at a loss for words. "Here we go again!" she thought. As the two returned to the lab, they could hear Sandy's excited voice from afar, "Oh, we found it! Found it! Oh my god! Thank goodness! Thank the heav
Emilia was at a loss for words. After a long pause, she finally spoke again. "One last question. Did you reject my résumé because I truly wasn't a good fit, or was it because… I gave you that candle?"Paul answered, "You truly weren't a good fit."He hesitated for a moment before elaborating, "Your

The person on the other end was shocked. "How is that possible?"Realizing he might have overreacted, he quickly added, "Maybe… they just haven't sent out all the notifications yet. My qualifications aren't as good as yours, and my research achievements are much weaker. There's no reason I got selec
Winter soon ended her call with Miranda, feeling dejected. She tossed and turned in bed, an uneasy creeping up within her. Suddenly, she sat up. "Why do I feel like I got tricked?"Meanwhile, Miranda hummed a tune after the call. Feeling good, she went to take a shower. After drying her hair, she
As Miranda and Paul reached the apartment building, she couldn't help but ask, "Why do you keep touching your head?"Instinctively, Paul rubbed his head again. "Tsk, that kid pulled really hard. I bet he yanked out a few strands of hair.""Yanked?" Miranda was puzzled. Paul nodded. "It felt a littl
Miranda nodded. "Alright. How about I trade the stuffed toys for you?"Austin's eyes widened in shock. "You want me?""Yes.""No way! Human trafficking is illegal!"Miranda retorted, "This isn't trafficking. It's a prize, so no money is involved.""It's still not allowed!""Why not?"Austin spoke cl
