When I Died, He was Indifferent
Chapter 3
My soul was pulled by a powerful force, and I appeared by Huston's side.
This face I hadn't seen in three years was still incredibly handsome.
He didn't come as promised to fetch me but went to find Nina instead. On the way, he received a secret letter that Nina had been kidnapped, and without hesitation, he turned around with his trusted aides.
Arriving in the desert, he knew it was a desolate area, possibly leading to danger, yet he still dove in headfirst.
Was his heart for the female lead truly unyielding?
Hadn't I successfully completed my mission?
I wanted to ask the system why there was no after-sales service, but it was my foolishness, being greedy for the little sweetness Huston had given me.
He searched tirelessly in the desert for a long time, covered in injuries, until he ran out of water.
One of Huston's subordinates cautioned, "Master, if we go any further, we may not be able to return. We'll die."
"It's nothing and dying for Nina is worth it."
My heart ached deeply. I floated in front of Huston, wanting to ask if he truly had a heart.
"Found her, Master."
They discovered Nina in the quicksand, unconscious and murmuring the male lead's name.
Huston held her in his arms, treating her like a treasure as he brought her out of the desert.
Once she woke up, she realized she had entered the desolate area out of spite for the male lead and almost died in the quicksand.
"Thank goodness for you, Huston. But shouldn't you be in Fensville to fetch Nina?"
"It's fine. I can fetch her any time. Saving you is the most important thing."
How absurd, Huston.
To you, Was I truly that insignificant?
I didn't blame Nina and she was also a woman, and fate was hard to defy. Though she was the destined female lead, she could still be oppressed by absolute imperial power.
But during my three years in Fensville, the only Glar Dynasty person I met was Nina.
She tore up my letters to Huston, teasing, "Sister, can't you endure the pain of longing? A girl shouldn't chase after a man."
She said she wouldn't deliver my love letters, but they weren't love letters and they were cries for help.
Nina claimed she didn't believe the Fensville royal family had the audacity to act so, urging me not to act up. She said Huston didn't like women who caused trouble.
In that moment, Nina crushed all my hopes.
I hated her.
I hated Huston even more, and the useless Glar Dynasty royal family, and the inhuman people of Fensville.
