“What do you want to talk about?” Alfred asked, his thin lips pressed into a tight line.

Nella didn’t know how to start.

After a long silence, she finally said, “How about … we end the contract early?”

As the words fell, Alfred’s pupils shrank sharply.

“What did you say?”

His voice sounded steady and perfectly controlled.

But his hand, which was wrapped in gauze, was clenched so tightly that blood began to seep through.

Nella repeated herself, “I said, we should end the contract early.”

She felt that the outcome would be better for everyone.

Zoey wouldn’t be triggered because of her anymore, which would also spare Alfred the emotional strain.

Killing three birds with one stone. She believed Alfred would understand what choice served him best.

The living room fell into a suffocating silence.

No one knew how long had passed before Alfred’s voice finally rang out, cold as frost.

As if trying to ease the awkwardness, she gestured around the low-key luxurious home and joked, “I even got to live in a fancy place like this.”

After saying that, seeing Alfred’s dark, silent expression, Nella quietly stopped talking.

“I don’t agree,” Alfred said flatly. He was firm and decisive.

“Why?”

Nella was genuinely surprised.

She felt she’d already thought this through for his sake.

It was a decision that benefited everyone. She’d assumed Alfred would

Alfred stared coldly at her tightly furrowed brows. After a long pause, he said, “The time isn’t up yet.”

Nella frowned even harder.

“There’s less than two months left. Ending it early doesn’t change anything. Neither of us loses anything. Isn’t that better?”

“No.”
