☾ two ☾

'I need to make as few enemies as possible since my goal is to live long.'

I slowly opened my mouth, reminding myself of my decision.

"I'm saying I'm letting go of you now."

Hearing my words, his eyes widened before slowly returning to their normal size, while his mouth slanted in disbelief.

"Nonsense, do you expect me to believe those words?"

I couldn't help but sigh at his sarcastic attitude.

'Well, it'd be a waste of time to talk any further.'

Having nothing more to say, I stood up from my chair.

"You don't have to believe me if you don't want to, but know that I've clearly said I'm breaking up with you."

As I turned around, a frigid voice could be heard.

"Alright, I'll trust you this one time. However, do not appear before me from now on."

The corners of my lips twitched upward at the unexpected remark.

'Did I succeed at safely breaking up with him?'

Whatever the reason, he accepted the breakup.

Rather than feeling regret, I felt relieved.

Now I could go on with my goal of living a happy and enjoyable life.

Although my father was indifferent towards me, he also didn't say anything when I indulged in luxuries.

Since it was like this, I might as well take advantage of my father's money and enjoy this life.

Imagining my happier future, my mood got better and I turned to face Mikhail with a bright smile.

"I'm sorry for everything up until now. Please be happy."

After genuinely wishing him well, I turned around.

Usually, I had always worn uncomfortable, but pretty shoes around Mikhail. 

However, the shoes I wore today had lower heels and were plain in comparison.

'Is it because of these comfortable shoes?'

I was able to leave my seat at ease without leaving behind any regrets.

'You're sorry for everything?'

Mikhail glared at the back of the woman who was walking away from him.

'Bullshit, this is obviously just another scheme to get my attention.'

Mikhail was confident that Juvellian would soon turn around and come back to him.

Contrary to his expectations, however, she never turned around and instead continued to walk farther and farther away from him.

Once Juvellian completely left the lounge, Mikhail tightly clenched his fists.

'Are you really leaving?'

Juvellian Eloy Floyen.

Despite being a breathtaking beauty, she was a pitiful woman with a troubled heart.

For the past two years, under the pretense of love, he had suffered from her actions.

She would alway try to follow him wherever he went.

If anyone tried to have a conversation with him, she would be hostile towards them. 

Just a tiny bit of attention from him would bring her great happiness.
