Lily felt an unexpected sense of joy as she made her way back to her apartment. In her previous life, she had never spoken up for herself like she did today. She had been obedient, quiet, and always eager to please. While she was smart in many aspects, she had been utterly naive when it came to matters of the heart.

The truth had been right before her eyes, yet she had been blind to it. But today, something shifted inside her–like a heavy weight being lifted. For the first time, she felt free.

Determined, she promised herself that she would win every battle against the Miller Family. Failure was not an option. If she couldn’t succeed this time, then her rebirth would have been in vain. This second chance was a gift, and she intended to make the most of it.

When Lily reached her apartment, she unlocked the door and stepped inside. As she flipped on the lights, her excitement dimmed slightly. “Noodles again,” she muttered to herself, frowning. The thought of yet another bland, uninspiring meal was hardly comforting.

Her mind wandered to a certain someone. If only I could have that pervert’s amazing cooking again… how great would that be? She sighed, kicking off her shoes as she walked toward the living room. But then, she froze in her tracks.

On the dining table, an assortment of delicious dishes was spread out, each one looking fresh and appetizing. She blinked in disbelief, narrowing her eyes at the sight before her. Am I hallucinating? Is my craving for Ethan’s food so bad that I’m imagining it?

Rubbing her eyes, she cautiously approached the table. The food wasn’t a mirage–it was very real.

“Welcome home,” came a familiar voice from behind her.

Startled, Lily spun around, her eyes widening in shock. Standing there, wearing her pink Minnie Mouse apron, was Ethan. The sight of him was almost too much–he looked absurdly adorable, his confident grin making her heart skip a beat.

For a moment, she was overwhelmed by an urge to pinch his cheeks. Her hand even twitched toward him, but she quickly caught herself and pulled back, shaking her head to clear the thought.
