My parents passed away early, so I grew up alongside my aunt.
She had no idea that I'd been secretly dating her best friend Serenity for three years.
One night after drinking, Serenity gazed at me with hazy eyes: "At your age, you should be with someone around your own age. Why don't I find someone for you?"
I nodded solemnly, "Sure, that sounds good."
Because in my past life, I didn't agree. I even bravely declared to the world that I loved her.
Under pressure from family, Serenity had no choice but to marry me.
But after our wedding, she was almost cold towards me, even on the day of my heart transplant surgery.
Serenity spent that day with pure love Nolan instead.
Love that's forced never ends well.
......

This Time I'll Let Go First

After returning home, I was busy adjusting to jet lag and spent almost half the day sleeping.


When I woke up, I saw many missed calls and messages from Serenity on my phone.


I deleted them all before opening my aunt's WhatsApp message.


[I'm heading to the company. Food's in the fridge. I've left your outfit for tonight's company gala in the walk-in closet.]


My aunt always takes me to the company's annual gala.


She says she has no plans to marry and that the company will be mine sooner or later.


She wants me to familiarize myself with the business as soon as possible.


However, when I opened the door, I found Serenity squatting outside.


I don't know how long she'd been there, but when she saw me, she hurriedly stood up.


She almost fell to the ground in the process.


She self-consciously touched her hair and said, "My leg fell asleep."


This was her usual little gesture, which I used to find incredibly cute.


I would have hugged her and given her a kiss.
