He lifted his head, eyen pleading, voice trembling “Please, Mira don’t do this Don’t leave me.”
Mia stood there, her face a munk of indifference. “Why do you think I hate you?” she asked flatly. “It took me several seconds to remember who you are. I don’t hate you Even when you hurt me, the pain has long been erased by the blankness of my memory “Her tone was calm, detached “My anger, that day, was from realizing I had been betrayed Before Host my memory, Imight have hated you with all my heart But now, I don’t feel anything for you. You’re just a stranger passing by on the street
She looked at him as if trying to understand the man kneeling before her, her voice unfazed. “Who could truly hate someone they don’t even remember?“.
Elias‘ throat tightened, a knot of despair forming deep within. The coldness in her voice, the indifference- those words cut deeper than any betrayal. He would have preferred her hatred, her anger. Anything but this hollow,

No love No hate How could he ever compete with that?
Mira began to turn away, dragging her suitcase as if nothing had happened. Elias remained frozen, unable to speak, caught between the longing for her to stay and the reality of her indifference
“Mira, look at this scaHis voice cracked as he renched up, pointing to the burn mark above his brow. “I got this when I saved your” His gaze was desperate. “Have you really forgotten me? Forgotten everything I did for you?”
An Elias spoke, he pulled out a knife and drove it into his own brow bone. The blade plunged deep, and blood. splattered across the pavement.

Mira gasped in shock, her heart racing in that moment, Frederick rushed forward, quickly positioning himself between her and Elias, his eyes filled with fury as he glared at the man like a predator.
Within moments, security guards from the hotel arrived, swiftly dialing for emergency services
“Miral” Elias” voice rang out, cold and full of menace, as he looked at their retreating figures. His smile was sharp, twisted with anger. “TI never let you go. No matter where you are, as long as I’m alive, you’ll never be with another
man”
Mira hurried into the car, her heart pounding in her chest. The last words she heard from him were his ominous threat, but what she didn’t anticipate was how quickly his name would resurface in the news.
It came days later, in the form of an arson case.
A fire had erupted in a residential building in Maryland, the flames raging fiercely in Room 903. The fire brigade worked desperately to

It was Vera–the woman notorious for interfering in other people’s relationships.
She had drugged Elas, bound his limbs while he was unconscious, and set fire to his apartment
Vera, in her confession, claimed that Elias had attempted to frame her child and that her actions had been at spur–of–the–moment, vengeful impulse
But as she sat in detention, the truth started to unravel. Soon, Vera discovered that her daughter was not actually Elias‘ biological child
The revelation hit her like a wave, and memories flooded back. After breaking up with Elias a year ago heartbroken and lost, she had gone to a bar, gotten drunk, and spent the night with a stranger.
A bitter laugh escaped her lips, her tear–streaked face twisted in a mix of disbelief and sorrow “Hahaha…” she chuckled, the sound hollow and broken
A week later, Elias, burned beyond recognition, lay in the intensive care unit. The devastating burns had ravaged 90% of his body, and his organs had begun to fail.
The hospital issued a critical illness notice
“Mira. “he whispered, his voice weak, as he lay covered in white gauze, like a lifeless mummy. The heart monitor beside him beeped faintly, its rhythm growing slower and slower
In the final moments, Elias‘ heartbeat flatlined, a steady, uninterrupted line.
Meanwhile, in the UK, far from the tragedy, Mira was at a wedding ring store. Frederick stood beside her, slipping
a dazzling diamond ring onto her finger.
He gazed at her with admiration, a sincere smile on his lips. “Wife, your fingers are delicate and white. You look beautiful with anything.”
Mira blushed, her cheeks warm with happiness.
Her new life, filled with love and joy, had only just begun.
