Luke slept off his hangover until the afternoon, waking up groggily. Before even opening his eyes, he absentmindedly traced the smooth skin of the woman beside him, softly murmuring, "Chloe ..."

But when he opened his eyes and saw who it was, he jumped back in shock, shoving Anna away.

"What are you doing here?"

I sat at the nearby table, gently swinging my legs, calmly watching this spectacle unfold.

When I saw this scene again, I felt calm indifference rather than fury.

As sunlight poured in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, I noticed my body had faded slightly.

I began to understand why, even in death, I remained tethered to Luke. Perhaps it was because I had spent so much of my life entangled with this man.

Even after all the hurt, I couldn't easily let him go.

My attachment ran too deep, binding my soul to his side against my will.

But as I saw his true nature, the restless bitterness within me started to fade away.

I realized that the day I truly let go of him would be the day I vanished from this world completely.

On the bed, Anna put on a pitiful expression. Luke's first instinct upon seeing her was to push her away, and her sad look only deepened.

"Luke, when you left last night, you looked upset, so I came to check on you. But you were drunk and mistook me for Chloe. We..."

Luke rubbed his forehead, his face contorting in discomfort as if he regretted being with Anna.

I couldn't help but find it laughable. If a man is truly drunk, he won't be able to get it up.
