When I arrived home in a rush with a cake in my hands, my six-year-old son looked at me arrogantly."Mom, why do you have to make a fuss about your birthday? Do you really have to go buy a cake and cause Wendy to be waiting so long for you at home?"I, who was wiping the rain from my face, was slightly taken aback by my son's words. 'Wendy?'At that moment, a gentle figure walked out from the living room after hearing the commotion. There was a familiar figure next to her as well.A familiar accusation sounded. "Rio Shaw, it's been quite a while since our divorce, why have you still not gotten rid of your bad habits?"I stood in the foyer and was completely soaked. I looked at them with a frown."Why are you here? Get out! You're not welcome..."Before I could finish speaking, my son threw himself at my belly like a cannonball.I lost my balance and fell backwards. The cake in my hand also fell on the ground.The cake that I had talked to the baker for three days to make, was
"System, how long do I have left?"The system let out a sigh. "Why are you such a noob? It's been 30 years. I've never seen such a useless tasker like you."I lowered my head shamefully.The system lowered its mechanical voice and sounded a little hesitant. "Host, you have failed your mission, so you will die a painful death. Your body will gradually deteriorate as you die. You have around two weeks before you'll be terminated by the main system."I breathed a sigh of relief. I still had two weeks left. I could go out and take a good look at this world.My life had revolved around my three targets for the past 30 years and I had never lived for myself.With that thought in mind, I suddenly felt full of energy and began packing my luggage.But when I reached the door with my suitcase, the door was forcefully rammed open.Zack rushed inside and pushed me out before I could realize what was going on.My shoulder rammed into a corner of the table and the pain caused me to break in
The person had a very attractive voice."Give us a couple of minutes."Jordan turned to look at the person between us and snorted before leaving.I wasn't nice to the person who had just arrived and sat next to me either. "You can get lost as well."Frank Jameson sighed and tucked me in. He then took out a piece of tissue and dried my hair for me."You're not a teenager anymore, why do you still have the same temper as before?"I pushed Frank's hand away and looked at him seriously. "I remember you said that we shouldn't see each other anymore on the day of our divorce."Frank was my childhood sweetheart.I had been following him around since I was five years old. That was when I came to this world.I was very glad that the person I was supposed to make fall in love with me was Frank.Our relationship started from when we were students and continued until we went to work. We got married after he became famous due to the first song he had released.But we then got divorced a
As I spat out blood, I grabbed his hand and looked at him in the eyes. "Do you... really want me to save her, even if it costs me my life?"He looked at me in a daze and nodded. Then he started crying.Zack picked Liam up and went out to get a doctor.Frank tried to wipe the blood that I was still spitting out from my mouth with a worried look on his face. "What's wrong, Rio?"I tried my best to swallow the blood in my mouth and grabbed Frank's collar. This left a bloody handprint on his shirt."I agree to the kidney donation."My life had been short, but it really was a joke.Even the child that I had given birth to chose to betray me without hesitation.The tears from the corners of my eyes were mixed with blood and soaked Frank's clothes.I had completely given up. I no longer wanted love or my child. I couldn't afford them anyway.Before I lost consciousness, the system's voice sounded in my head. "I had never seen such a pitiful host as you. The affection level of each t
I retorted, "Because you're all bitches and scumbags. But you use true love as an excuse for cheating."Wendy's face became twisted for an instant, but quickly returned to normal. She then walked up to me calmly. Her voice was full of hate. "I want to see how you look after you lose everything bit by bit. You have no idea how I was trembling with excitement when I saw you begging Frank not to go. The pitiful look on your face is truly addictive!"I turned and looked at the excited Wendy with a puzzled look. "Why? We grew up together. I saw you as my best friend. Why did you have to do this to me?"Wendy calmed down and the usual gentle smile appeared on her face. "You being alive is a pain to me. So, Rio, you might as well die."As expected, it was no use to reason with a maniac.I let out a sigh, closed my eyes, and remained silent.For the next couple of days, my three ex-husbands completely disappeared.But when I woke up in the middle of the night due to the pain, I would st
His eyes flashed and he signaled the anesthetist to start giving me the anesthesia without hesitation.Jordan was a rare medical genius. His operation failure rate was near 0%.However, his hand holding the scalpel trembled continuously during this operation.This was because he couldn't stop the bleeding at all. My heart rate dropped continuously until it reached zero.The scalpel in Jordan's hand dropped to the ground. He looked at the monitor in disbelief and mumbled, "This can't be..."I successfully got rid of my human body and met up with the system. The system told me that they had already destroyed the extra threads of affection that Wendy possessed.The people affected by her would gradually come back to their senses and all their affections would return to normal.I nodded casually and asked the system, "When are we leaving?"The system replied that I had to stay another eight hours.Outside the operating room, both Zack and Frank looked at the doors of the operating
Frank rubbed my face as if he had just woken up from a dream.His voice was gentle just like when he woke me up to go to school. "Rio, wake up. It's time to wake up. You're already a mother, why do you still sleep so much?"As he said those words, he was going to pick me up. "Let's go. Mom and Dad are still waiting for us at home. Let's go home."But Zack took me from his arms and glared at Frank fiercely. "Get lost! She's my wife!"Frank turned to look at me and then at Zack in a daze.He first explained to Zack nicely, "Sir, she's my wife. We're already married. You see, this is a token of our relationship."I leaned in to look at Frank's wrist.It was an old watch. It was a watch that I bought with my first annual salary after I graduated.After that, Frank became a celebrity, but he still wore the watch at all times.When Jordan and I got married, Frank had come to find me. He threw the watch on the ground with a smile and said that it was a wedding gift.I ignored him, b
