I'm the youngest forensic sketch artist at the police station,
Ivo is a star at the fire department.
We were the envied model couple.
The biggest jewelry store in our city was robbed,
While sorting through photos of suspects,
I discovered my fiancé picking out a necklace.
But the woman beside him wasn't me.
On the anniversary of my mother's death,
I miscarried.
Clutching my stomach, I called Ivo, begging him to take me to the hospital.
Ivo said, "Meadow forgot her keys and can't get home. I'm a firefighter, I need to let her in."
Leaving me lying in a pool of blood.
I asked for a breakup.
This time, I'm the one leaving you.
Ivo said in front of his friends, "She's making a big deal out of nothing this time. After we break up, don't come begging me to take you back."
Later,
When he was in an accident and lying in a hospital bed hoping I'd visit,
I only tossed out one line:
"No need to save him, he's not gonna die anyway."

I Lost My Baby When He Was With His Mistress

I struggled to suppress the sadness in my heart, forcing a smile.


"When did you get a lily plant? It's beautiful."


"It was sent by that girl I rescued before. You like flowers, don't you? So I kept it."


So he still remembered I liked flowers,


But too bad, I stopped liking lilies a long time ago.


"Where's the cactus I gave you? Let me see it."


Ivo picked up his phone, suddenly remembering something.


"Aria, that cactus died, so I threw it away."


A flash of concern crossed his eyes, but it quickly turned to resignation.


"It's just a cactus, what's there to cry about?"


My personality has always been like this, wanting to cry over everything.


In the past, every time I cried, Ivo would do everything to cheer me up.


Last Christmas, my favorite handbag was sold out.


To make me happy, Ivo ran all over the city in heavy snow.


Red-faced Ivo held the bag in his hand, with roasted chestnuts tucked in his coat.


"As long as my Aria is happy, that's all that matters."


But why couldn't I stop them? They kept coming, more and more."All right, I need to get to work now. If you really like the cactus, I'll buy you a new one when I get home."


Ivo, do you know? I've never really liked the cactus.


That evening, Ivo came home and brought me a cactus.


"Aria, let's take good care of this cactus together."


He hugged me as we looked at the plants and flowers on the balcony.


Recently, there have been more and more rape cases in the city.


Citizens are becoming increasingly anxious.


I've been working overtime for three days straight, trying to find traces of the suspect as quickly as possible.


I picked up a gift from his favorite store.


"Beautiful lady, your boyfriend was here this morning. He went next door, definitely buying you a gift. How lucky you are!"


I looked up. Next door was my favorite makeup store.


Back home, I started preparing the surprise.


The background noise was chaotic, but I thought I heard a woman's voice. No, wait—it was Meadow's voice."I had something come up unexpectedly. Go ahead and eat without me, don't wait."


"Celebrating a birthday with my lifesaver."


Across the table sat Ivo, wearing the watch I had given him.


Ironically, this was my favorite restaurant.


My blood sugar dropped, and I collapsed on the floor.


On the other end of the line, there was a clatter.


He looked at the surprise I had prepared and my injured hand.


While grumbling, he took out the first aid kit.


"Aria, you're so careless. Next time, let me handle it."
