章節 144: When cornered, even a rabbit would bite

Poor, poor Alam was never dead.

She had survived and went back to the academy with a new face, a new contract, and a new identity.

Nance crawled back from death's door and returned to the academy. To meet with her beloved Theodore.

For the sake of exacting revenge, but the more time she spent with Theodore, the more she grew to love him more than ever, and the more she grew to love him, the more she humiliated him in rage.

Beating him, yelling at him in public, and making him an abusive partner—she has done everything in her power to take revenge.

She tried killing him in his sleep, but her contract included giving birth to his child.

The more unfortunate he got, the more she felt sorry, and her hatred dwindled.

But she couldn't stop. She couldn't forgive him for forgetting about her and about Alam. The version of her he stepped on.

She wished they didn't have that past.
