Chapter 8
In the emergency room, even the nurses were stunned to see that there was no intact skin on Marlene’s back.
During the process, Marlene endured the pain and didn’t utter a word.
When it was done, she was nearly unconscious.
Lying on the bed feebly, she grabbed her phone.
It was 1 a.m. the next day. A day had begun. Today, her resignation procedure would be completed.
Regardless of the doctor’s objection, Marlene left the hospital after her wounds were roughly dressed.
She came to the company too early. No one else was in the office.
Looking at her desk, where she had worked for five years, she began clearing it. There weren’t so many things to take. Her bag was big enough to hold everything.
When she was waiting for the elevator, she ran into Kenyon, who was getting out.

Chapter S
In the past five years, Marlene had grown mature from an inexperienced graduate.
The timid, imprudent girl had become a career woman capable of handling difficult tasks. Kenyon had taught her the most unforgettable lesson in romance.
As a professional, Marlene put on a standard smile. After entering the elevator, she said, “I’m fine, Mr. Burt. I have to go. Bye.”
The doors closed slowly. Kenyon watched as her face became smaller and eventually went out of sight.
Inexplicably, he felt a fit of unease.
After being together for five years, he had gotten used to Marlene’s sweetness and obedience. She’d do everything he asked. But not this time.
She remained sweet and obedient. But things seemed to be getting out of
his control.
Marlene trotted out of the office building, tapped open WhatsApp, blocked Kenyon, and removed him from her contacts.
After that, she removed her SIM card, broke it, and tossed it into the trash
can.
So long, Kenyon.
