He Went to Hell for Me, But I Let Him Go/Double Check
“Did you have something you wanted to tell me?” Celia asked, working hard to suppress the strange fluttering in her chest. She kept her tone as neutral as possible, but her eyes betrayed a hint of curiosity. Lucas, his face still flushed, grew even redder at her question. He fumbled for a moment before pulling out a small bag and handing it to her. “This is for you,” he said, his voice noticeably softer. Seeing the gesture, Celia instinctively pushed the bag back toward him, shaking her head. “Oh, no, I can’t accept this.” But Lucas, as if anticipating her reaction, quickly pulled the item out of the bag. It was a white knitted scarf. The uneven stitches hinted that it was handmade, something Celia immediately picked up on. “I don’t have much money right now,” Lucas admitted, holding the scarf out to her. “I can’t give you anything expensive, but I made this myself. It’s my first attempt, so it’s not perfect, but I hope you won’t mind.” His words, coupled with his blushin

He Went to Hell for Me, But I Let Him Go/Double Check
Celia had a long vivid dream. The faces in the dream were blurred, yet she inexplicably knew who they were. It was them. In this dream, there was a man with the same first name but a different surname as Lucas. He wasn’t a struggling college student but the heir to a vast corporate empire, the Shaw Group. This man had willingly given up his inheritance and chosen to leave his family behind, all to care for a frail, sickly girl who bore Celia’s name. From the time she was eight until she turned eighteen, he doted on her and lavished her with the kind of affection that made her feel like the center of his world. But somewhere along the way, she began loving him not as a guardian but as a man. And for that, no one understood her, not even the once-doting Lucas. The moment she confessed her feelings, everything changed. He withdrew all the warmth and affection he once lavished on her. He started dating other women, parading them in front of her until he finally settled on one

Celia didn’t regret her choices. Even the words she spoke before her soul scattered remained true. Even though there was disappointment, she felt no regret. But there was one thing she hadn’t said back then—if fate offered her another chance, she didn’t want to love Lucas again. That day, she truly believed she would fade into nothingness. Now that she had the chance to live again, she didn’t want to get entangled with him anymore. This time, she wanted to live for herself. When Celia awoke from her deep sleep, it was already the afternoon of the next day. The sharp scent of disinfectant, the stark white ceiling, the dull ache from the needle in her hand, and the IV drip hanging by her side made her immediately realize where she was. She turned her head and saw Lucas keeping watch by her bedside. He was slumped forward, resting his head on the edge of the bed. His sleep seemed restless; she could faintly see the stubble on his jawline. It was clear he hadn’t rested properl

Lucas eventually left. Not long after Celia finished handling her discharge paperwork, he received a notification that she had transferred the medical expenses back to him. He didn’t want to accept it, but her next message left him without an excuse to refuse. “Lucas, considering your financial situation, there’s no need to push yourself too hard. I can easily cover my own medical bills. I’d feel guilty if helping me meant you had to take on another part-time job.” Lucas lowered his head in embarrassment. Lately, the dreams he’d been having had grown more frequent, and his actions in real life were starting to mirror the person he saw in those dreams. But the man in his dreams was the heir to the Shaw Group—a rising star in the business world who could build an empire from scratch even after severing ties with his powerful family. Lucas, on the other hand, was just a penniless student who hadn’t even graduated yet. Back at his dorm, he collapsed onto his bed in frustration.
