"Do you still keep in touch with him now?" Magnus asked.

Denise shook her head. "We haven't been in touch for a long time. I heard he's already married and has a child."

She appeared to be quite nonchalant.

Magnus, however, perceived a sense of loss deep within her eyes, which inexplicably stirred discomfort within him.

"So, he knew about your family situation and that was why he agreed to break up with you?" Magnus probed.

Magnus kept questioning her, which made her somewhat unhappy. "What's the matter with you today? Are you investigating my past?"

"I was just asking."

Quickly, Magnus lowered his head, sipping the oatmeal from his bowl.

Even though it was sweet, for some reason, it tasted somewhat bitter to him.

"What's there to question?" Denise articulated each word meticulously. "Isn't this just how the adult world works? We're not living in a TV drama. Everyone's just trying their best to survive, not wanting to be a burden to anyone else."

Magnus kept his head down, not daring to meet Denise's gaze again. "If it were me, I wouldn't have done it."

"Maybe it's because you had such a good life before," Denise speculated, now certain that Magnus must have been the son of a wealthy family in the past.
