After starting afresh in a new life, I was determined to sever all contact with Marceau Soulier. When he chose Shaloburg State University, I applied to Gauburg University. I wanted us to be as far apart as possible so that we would never meet again. When he returned home during his vacation and asked me out, I responded by taking a trip abroad. I blocked him on all my social media accounts, and I never replied to his emails. When he joined the company where I worked, I immediately submitted my resignation letter. I didn't even want to catch a glimpse of his shadow. I adored him for twenty years in my past life, only to be betrayed by him for twenty years in return. In my thirties, I was diagnosed with a terminal illness. As I lay dying, Marceau was preparing for his wedding to his longtime crush, while his beloved daughter was happily helping him with his tuxedo suit. Meanwhile, I drew my final breath, all alone in the hospital ward. I refused to allow such a pathetic, wretched fate to befall me again...
