Semua Bab System Quest 2.0: Harvest My Family's Regret: Bab 1 - Bab 9

At that moment, I hesitated.I had completed so many missions, but Audrey was the very first target who had ever made my heart skip a beat.After turning it over in my mind, I decided to stay.Back in the real world, I was just an orphan with no family to call my own anyway, so it made more sense to remain here and build a life with Audrey.At first, things were genuinely peaceful and sweet between us. But everything changed after my twin brother, Owen, who had been abducted years ago, was found and brought home.Owen came back into our lives shortly after Audrey and I got married.Faced with the son they thought they had lost forever, Mom and Dad broke down in tears of absolute joy. No matter what Owen said or did, they believed him and gave him anything he wanted.I could understand my parents' reaction.For some reason, though, Audrey started growing incredibly close to Owen as well. I remembered seeing Owen whispering something to her one day, and that very night, she uncha

The doctor's words stunned the room into silence."What do you mean he's dead?" Audrey finally asked, her voice flat as she broke the eerie quiet."Look, Dr. Hayes, I'm a busy woman. I chose to track you down myself because he's your husband. But you need to go see for yourself."Without waiting for an answer, the doctor turned on her heel and sprinted back to her shift."Audrey, this has to be another one of Noah's stunts," Owen chimed in, unable to hide the smug gleam in his eyes despite putting on his best sympathetic face as he talked Audrey down."He's probably just throwing a tantrum because Mom and Dad are treating me so well. He used to pull pointless crap like this all the time, so who knows what he's up to this time—"But Audrey's face had paled, and she shot to her feet.Ignoring Owen completely, she dropped the half-peeled apple from her hands and stormed out of the room."She's lying," she muttered to herself as she sprinted down the hallway to find me. "This has t

Essentially, I had set myself up as Audrey's savior to sweep her off her feet and marry her.No wonder she had spent our entire marriage hating my guts and making snide remarks, constantly accusing me of faking life-or-death situations just to trick her into staying with me.But when it came down to it, neither Audrey nor my parents had ever trusted me.If they had just come forward, laid their cards on the table, and asked me face-to-face, things might have been different. But not a single one of them ever did.Watching Audrey break down like this made Mom panic. Shaking like a leaf, she shuffled closer and tentatively reached out to feel my hand, only for the ice-cold skin to make her shriek in horror."Noah! Noah, stop scaring me. Why are your hands so cold?" Mom screamed, her voice dissolving into uncontrollable sobs.Seeing Mom's reaction, Dad quickly rushed over to check on me, too. He steeled himself to press a finger to my neck, checking for a pulse. The second he reali

The woman had clearly come prepared. Ignoring the pain, she pulled a stack of photos from her pocket and flung them into the air."Take a look at this!" she cried. "These are all the photos of your husband and me in compromising positions. In fact, I was even pregnant with his child. If you don't believe me, go ahead and look for yourselves! See what your husband was really doing!"I glanced at the photos scattered across the floor, which clearly depicted intimate and compromising situations.The problem was that the person in the pictures wasn't me. Someone had swapped my face onto another man's body.The guests completely forgot they were at a funeral, rushing to pick up the photos and get a piece of the gossip."Oh, my… Everyone always said Dr. Hayes' husband was hopelessly in love with her. How could he do something like this behind her back?""Hank is such a respectable guy. It's a shame his younger son turned out like this. I heard one of his sons was kidnapped as a kid and
