Chapter 287: Qixi Festival Side Story (Interlude Skit)

Clara Knox had been married to Edward Harper for over six months. Living under the same roof, their relationship was just slightly closer than that of strangers.

Every day, Clara watched him passing by in front of her, wanting to strike up a conversation but feeling like they had nothing in common to talk about. He was always busy, coming home late every night, often taking work calls at the dinner table.

In all this time since they married, the two had been sleeping in separate rooms.

That day, Clara lay on the big bed after her shower, scrolling through her phone out of boredom, and only then did she realize it was the Qixi Festival.

Her social media was flooded with flowers, rings, and movie ticket posts, leaving her feeling a bit envious and alone.
