“Ms. Flair, are you sure you want to pawn your love?” Juliet Flair stared at the agreement in her hand and signed her name firmly. With a beep, the robot’s voice sounded. “Congratulations on participating in the Love-Pawning Shop’s experimental activity.” Juliet lay in the cold operating room with the chip pressed against her head, preparing to erase the sweet memories with her husband, Elijah Richter. The current tingled through Juliet’s scalp, prompting tears to stream down. She wanted to forget it gradually and leave burdenlessly in the end. After the experiment, her mind felt numb, and the doctor told her, “You need to participate in this experiment three times before you can completely forget it.” Juliet nodded, picked up her bag, and walked towards home. Walking alone on the bustling street, she heard the coffee shop playing the love song that Elijah had composed for her. The lyrics end with “I’ll wait until the day you say yes”. The girls passing by stopped and listened quietly, then sighed, “Elijah’s love for Juliet is so touching. All the songs he wrote are dedicated to his wife.” The manager of the coffee shop smiled, “Their love can be considered epic. They have been together for seven years, from high school to college, and finally got married. So many people envy their unwavering love!” A young man on a bicycle shouted, “Indeed! When Juliet had stomach cancer, it was Elijah who cut out a part of his stomach to save her life. Elijah also said that he didn’t want his wife to have children because seeing his lover in pain was worse than taking his life.” Well, everyone knew that Elijah loved Juliet wholeheartedly. Everyone knew that Elijah had lost part of his stomach for Juliet. Everyone knew that Elijah would prepare grand fireworks for Juliet every year. And everyone knew that Elijah’s albums were filled with his sweet love for Juliet. But such a person cheated. Juliet laughed sarcastically. She was utterly disappointed as she caught him repeatedly cozying up to the internet celebrity in his company and pulling all-nighters to boost her fame. As Juliet curled up in bed, crying, biting her lip, and looking through their unbearable photos, she vaguely remembered the young man who swore to her parents, “I will only love Juliet all my life.” She recalled that he held her face on their wedding night and said, “Although you look ordinary, I love your soul, and I love the charming characters you create.” Juliet was not a beauty, with sparse and dry hair like a bunch of dead grass and eyes as small as green beans. From childhood to adulthood, no boy had ever noticed her except Elijah, who, after reading a book she wrote, started chasing after her like a puppy. He even defended Juliet against bullies, ending up with three broken ribs. And he often penned songs to praise Juliet, declaring her the most unique and captivating person. Although Juliet gained a large number of fans for writing the novel Dawn, in reality, she was very inferior and had a strong sense of unworthiness. But Elijah would always hold her hand and say, “It doesn’t matter. I love everything about you.” Juliet believed it. She gave her heart to Elijah, only to be betrayed and trampled. Juliet raised her head stubbornly at the street corner and wiped away a tear from the corner of her eye. She thought, “When my love is gone, will you regret it?” Then, Juliet was about to take a taxi when an Audi stopped in front of her. Elijah got out of the car anxiously, holding a scarf and a thermos cup. “Why aren’t you at home? Why are you out for a walk on such a cold day? “I came to you right after I finished my work, but you didn’t answer my calls or reply to my messages. “You’re driving me crazy.” Juliet stared at the man. His concern and anxiety didn’t seem fake, but his infidelity was actual. Perhaps it was because people’s minds were complicated. She felt a bit exhausted and then replied indifferently, “I don’t want to disturb you.” Elijah’s eyes were filled with guilt. He patted his head and said, “I’m sorry. I was too busy with work and neglected you. “When I make enough money and write 1999 love songs, I will stay with you forever and never go anywhere.” Juliet forced a smile but thought, “We have no future because my love for you is fading.” Elijah helped Juliet get into the car. “I was afraid that you didn’t have any food, so I made some oatmeal and put it in a thermos cup. You can eat some first, and I’ll cook for you after going home.” Juliet opened the lid of the cup. The oatmeal, which was usually appetizing, now tasted mediocre. A text message came to her phone. [You can’t be moved. You have to remember that he has cheated on you more than once.] Juliet glanced at it, turned off the phone, and closed her eyes. She couldn’t be soft-hearted because Elijah was a complete liar. He betrayed her love and trust, destroying all her fantasies about love. As soon as they got home, Elijah’s phone rang. Juliet stared at his back as he hid on the balcony to answer the phone. “Elijah, I’m wearing black stockings and high heels today. Are you coming?” Elijah’s chest heaved, and his eyes narrowed. He would go. Juliet smiled bitterly. Elijah turned around and saw Juliet behind him. He was startled and showed uneasiness on his face. “Something happened at the company. My agent asked me to go over. Why are you standing here?” Juliet suppressed the emotions surging in her heart and tried to answer as usual, “Nothing. Go ahead.” Her soft tone soothed Elijah, who then rushed out, skipping the promised dinner. Juliet was sitting on the sofa when her phone rang again. It was a message from Andrea Lopez, the boss of Love-Pawning Shop. In the picture, Elijah had another woman sitting on his lap, and his hands were on her chest. The caption read: [Your lover is now having sex with another woman. Please take good care of yourself and participate in the experimental removal plan the second time the day after tomorrow.] Juliet’s hands trembled as she repeatedly read the caption, her voice growing hoarse. “Yes, I will take good care of myself and gradually stop loving him. I will even take revenge on him…” Another option popped up on the phone. [Do you choose to give your lover a surprise, a dead body, when you finally leave?] Juliet nodded in agreement. Why not? He had lied to her more than once…
Juliet was about to go to sleep after dinner. But she received a call from an unfamiliar number. She clicked it with confusion but heard intimate sounds of kissing on the other end of the line. “Baby, you look so beautiful today. I love you so much.” It was Elijah’s voice. Juliet clenched her fists tightly, numb to the pain. “Elijah, am I better than her in bed?” Elijah paused and then replied, “Focus on it, and don’t talk about other things.” Then came the moans of the girl. Juliet couldn’t bear to listen to it anymore. She thought she would get used to it and become numb to it. But hearing it still filled her heart with endless sadness and loss. Juliet’s phone vibrated again. It was a text message from Shirley Capra, Elijah’s mistress. [You don’t know how handsome he is when he’s in my body and how cool he is when he hugs me and trembles. You may have never experienced it!” The picture showed torn black stockings and a tie Juliet gave Elijah. Somehow, Juliet felt nauseous. She rushed into the bathroom and wanted to vomit, her face turning pale. Coming out, she accidentally saw an exquisite gift box on the table. Juliet opened it and saw that it was a heart made of 199 condoms with a card underneath. She felt empty inside, picked up the card, and began to read it, which was like a sharp blade that suddenly pierced her soul. [Shirley, I like your red lips, which are full and attractive. I like your hair, which is soft and thick. I like your voice, which is sweet and pleasant. And I like your figure. None of these are like my wife, who is like an ugly duckling.] Juliet’s looks had always been a source of her inferiority. She breathed heavily, and her heart ached. However, Elijah came back at this moment, holding a small cake. “Juliet, I brought you your favorite small cake.” Juliet turned around stiffly, hid the things in her clothes, and then stood there blankly. Suddenly, the chandelier above her head shook and then fell. Elijah rushed over and protected Juliet. The chandelier hit his back, blood flowing out. Juliet lay in Elijah’s arms with a puzzled look in her eyes. Why would he save her since he didn’t love her anymore? Elijah thought Juliet was frightened, so he coaxed her caringly, “Don’t be afraid. I’m fine.” Then he endured the pain, helped Juliet up, and called an ambulance. Juliet saw that the broken glass on his back had sunk into his flesh, causing deep wounds, but she did not feel the slightest bit of distress in her heart. By the time the medical staff arrived, Elijah was almost fainting. Juliet accompanied him to the hospital as Elijah muttered incoherently. Juliet moved closer and heard him calling, “Shirley… Shirley…” She stared at Elijah intently with no love but coldness. Seeing Elijah come out of the emergency room, Juliet just asked indifferently, “Are you okay?” Elijah held her hand. “It’s okay. I’m fine!” Juliet had been staying to take care of him these days. They got along quietly, reminiscent of their early marriage days, stirring Juliet’s nostalgia. Juliet went back to get Elijah’s clothes and made oatmeal. But as she returned to the ward, Elijah was gone. There was a sticky note on the bed with his handwriting on it. [My new song is going to be released soon, so I’m going to the studio first.] Juliet sighed and went to the cat cafe where they used to pet cats, but stopped outside the glass door of the cat cafe. Inside it, Elijah looked at Shirley tenderly and tidied her hair. “Are you happy?” Shirley pouted and said, “If you could give me a kiss, I would be even happier!” Elijah turned and pecked her lips gently. “You are so beautiful!” But Shirley seemed a little unhappy. “Then you only like my face.” Her tone was a little depressed. Elijah held her waist and coaxed her, “You are full of energy. I like more than just your appearance.” Shirley responded to him enthusiastically, “Baby, you’re so sweet. I want to drink coffee. Remember…” Elijah said before she could finish her words, “Remember to add more sugar. Don’t make it too bitter!” Then, the two of them smiled at each other, which looked very sweet. Just then, someone patted Juliet’s shoulder. “Andrea?” Andrea was a bit fat, with wrinkles all over her face. “How about we have coffee and talk?” Juliet nodded. Then, Andrea passed her a pile of photos at the cafe table. Andrea coughed and said, “These photos were taken when different women were trapped in their marriages. Some of them are now living on the streets, but the mistresses and their husbands are living happily together. Some of them are even addicted to drugs, and some have serious mental illnesses due to failed marriages and are engaging in self-abuse.” A fire ignited in Juliet’s heart. “What can I do?” Andrea held her hand and said firmly, “You can save yourself first and then write a book about their stories to alert more women.” Juliet agreed and took a taxi back to the studio alone. The door of the studio was wide open, and Juliet walked in. Elijah was tidying up the bookshelf inside. Seeing Juliet coming back, he took out the gift and said, “It’s windy. I’ll give you a scarf.” Juliet didn’t take it but just stared at the books he packed and asked, “Why are you taking my books?” Elijah was stunned. “I have a junior who is learning dancing and wants to read more books, so…” Juliet glanced at him. “So you just took the books I carefully collected and gave them to her?” Elijah didn’t answer but frowned. “She just wants to read them. It’s nothing.” Juliet remained silent and then realized something. A relieved smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. “Then, take it! But I never share my books with others because I hate things that others have touched.” Elijah picked up the books silently. “Why are you so fussy about it? Just some books, okay?” Then he stuffed the scarf into Juliet’s hand and left. Juliet opened the scarf and saw the label on it was “SC”, which stood for the abbreviation of his lover Shirley Capra.
Juliet took a taxi as she was going to participate in the experiment the second time. The doctor asked for some details, “Do you still remember the sweet memories of the past?” Juliet thought for a moment and said, “I remember it, but I don’t feel it sweet anymore.” The doctor smiled, “It’s effective. The first electric current introduction is to numb your emotions, and your experience of love and happiness will drop rapidly. “The second time, you will truly forget it because when you feel that these things are not important, your memory will delete them. I will stimulate your memory to delete them.” Juliet asked, “Will I really forget the past?” The doctor patiently explained, “It is just to forget all the affection you once had for him, but its side effects will worsen your sadness and pain. It is best not to be stimulated by the outside world during this period.” Juliet wanted to end this memory quickly, so she lay down. The current was stronger this time, and Juliet’s grip left marks on her flesh. Her hair tingled, transitioning from severe pain to numbness. Her mind was blank, with only a faint recollection of Elijah. Juliet returned to the studio in a daze, sat at the desk, and thought about the plot for a long time. Her eyes felt a little sore. Elijah came back at three in the morning. “Why are you still in the studio?” Juliet glanced at the surveillance camera and found Shirley at the door of the studio. “What’s wrong?” Elijah didn’t answer but went to pour a glass of water and said, “Drink some! Take care of yourself.” Juliet smelled a strong smell of alcohol. “You… drank?” Elijah’s cheeks flushed. “I’m happy today, so I drank some. I want to ask you for a favor. Can you help me revise the script?” Juliet’s heart skipped a beat. “What script?” Elijah handed her a script of The Saintess. Juliet had not yet flipped through, but she noticed a label stuck in the middle that read “To my love Shirley”. Juliet realized that he wanted to make Shirley famous in the entertainment industry. She thought, “When a man falls in love with a woman, he will consider her future.” It turned out that Elijah had transferred his affections to someone else. But Juliet didn’t feel sad. She put the script aside and said, “I’ll take a look later.” Elijah looked sincere and pleaded again and again, “This script is essential. I invested a lot of money in it. You must help me revise it. When I make money, I will take you on a cruise.” He turned sideways, and the dim light illuminated the date on the calendar. “Do you… remember what day it is today?” Juliet thought for a long time and finally asked hesitantly, “What day?” Elijah lowered his eyes. “Nothing.” Juliet sneered, “I have work. Help yourself!” Elijah stared at Juliet’s cold face and felt his heart was torn. But he still turned and left. On the surveillance camera, Elijah was kissing Shirley passionately at the door of the studio. Elijah likely forgot he installed the camera, as he had once constantly hovered around Juliet, who was always writing. He said, “Then I can install surveillance cameras in your studio so that I can see what you are doing whether I am on a business trip or at home!” But now, his cheating performance was being played out on surveillance video, and Juliet became the spectator. The wind blew down the script on the table, and many small pieces of paper flew out. Juliet squatted down and noticed each small piece of paper was covered with words which Elijah wrote. [Shirley, your acting of the character is not yet in place. It would be best if you incorporated your own understanding.] [Your performance is a little stiff. If you can practice it, it will be more natural.] Juliet recalled that when she was writing articles, Elijah would always accompany her to look up information, carefully warm milk for her, and even make a pair of heating gloves in person for fear that her hands would be cold. Now, he had given all his love to someone else. Juliet tore the small notes into pieces bit by bit. She found it boring and meaningless. Juliet sat at the table, drawing an outline and typing out a first draft word by word. She read it again and again but always felt that there was something wrong. Juliet then went out to collect some materials, and before leaving, she did not turn off the computer. A figure came in stealthily. It was Shirley. She reached across the computer and hit the delete key, covering her mouth and laughing, “What are you writing about? Bullshit! Rubbish! “Only your claws are useful. I wish they were stomped off.” When Juliet came back, it was almost dawn. She was very sleepy and wanted to revise the draft again. But she looked for it for a long time and didn’t see it. She rubbed her eyes and thought she hadn’t sobered up. After drinking some ice water, she still didn’t see the manuscript she had written. Juliet murmured to herself, “It can be repaired. I can check the recycling bin!” She even wanted to go into the computer to look for it, but the manuscript just disappeared out of thin air. Juliet suddenly noticed that the computer had been tampered with, so she quickly turned on the surveillance camera. Witnessing that her manuscript had been deleted, she was utterly devastated. Juliet screamed, “You can steal my man, but you can’t delete my manuscript!” She fell to the ground, too exhausted to get up. Finally, Juliet fainted.
The next day, Juliet returned home with a chaotic mind but found a strange woman in the house. Elijah explained anxiously, “I… She is the heroine of the script I invested in. I was just talking to her about the script.” Juliet forced a sneer on her cold face. “Really?” Her eyes cut through the two of them like a sword. “Then I shouldn’t have come back?” Elijah’s eyes wandered, and he kept shaking his head. “How could that be! I just wanted to call you!” Juliet stared at Elijah. His face turned red, and he began to stammer. “What would you like to drink? I’ll get it for you.” Juliet asked sarcastically, “You are my husband. Don’t you know what I like to drink most?” Elijah nodded repeatedly, walked hurriedly to the kitchen, and brought a cup of coffee. Juliet was utterly stunned. But Shirley leaned on the sofa and laughed, “Elijah, you are wrong. I like coffee the most!” Elijah’s hand trembled, and the coffee spilled out. “I was wrong. I was wrong. It should be juice. You think coffee is unhealthy.” Juliet didn’t want to watch their ridiculous performance, so she turned around and went back to her room. Half an hour later, there was a knock on the door. Shirley raised her eyebrows at the door, holding her waist, and said, “Well, you don’t know that he was like a bull last night. His brute force almost broke me apart.” Juliet looked her up and down. “What do you want? Did you delete my manuscript yesterday?” Shirley flicked her fingernails. “What manuscript? I don’t know!” Then she raised her voice and continued, “I just want to tell you the story between him and me.” Juliet grabbed her hand and roared, “I only care about my manuscript.” Shirley rolled her eyes. “When he met me, he couldn’t hide the amazement in his eyes. “He said he had never seen a girl as pretty as me, that his wife was as ugly as a toad, and that I was his angel.” Shirley then pulled out the photos and displayed them to Juliet. “This is the first time he kissed me. This is him and I having sex. This is him celebrating my birthday…” Juliet watched Shirley’s performance expressionlessly. After she finished speaking, Juliet frowned and said, “You can go now. I will sue you. “Because you deleted my manuscript.” Shirley took out a pregnancy test form from her pocket and threw it in Juliet’s face. “I’m pregnant. He said he would divorce you and marry me. I’ll save some dignity for you, and you can go now.” Seeing the pregnancy test report, Juliet was stunned for a moment. She didn’t expect that… they were going to have a baby… Shirley flipped through her phone. Then, Elijah’s coquettish voice played. “Shirley, I want you to take care of me. I want to stay with you.” Shirley walked away with her head held high. Reaching the door, she glanced at Juliet and said, “You are really an eyesore.” Juliet shut the bedroom door, feeling her brain’s blood vessels ready to burst. Her body trembled with icy hands and feet. Feeling nauseous, she hurried to the bathroom, retching persistently. Finally, she glanced at her reflection, ugly in the mirror, and shattered it with a punch. The glass shards sliced her hand, likely overshadowed by her heartache, as she felt no pain. The phone beeped again. [Do you want to perform the final memory clear?] Juliet laughed with tears, “With one last time, I can forget these disgusting things forever.” When Elijah came back, Juliet had already fallen asleep. He carefully tucked in the quilt for Juliet and then kissed her. Elijah took off his clothes and got into bed but accidentally touched Juliet’s injured hand. “It hurts…” Elijah asked nervously, “Did I hurt you?” Juliet moved back and said stiffly, “Why are you back?” Elijah felt a little aggrieved and then angrily scolded, “Can you take care of yourself? What’s wrong with your hand? Show me.” He forcefully grabbed Juliet’s hand and checked it. “You got hurt when I was away for a while. What happened?” Juliet looked a little dazed and blurted out, “Who are you?” Elijah’s eyes were full of worry. “I am your husband, Elijah!” But she pulled her hand back. “She’s gone.” Elijah’s heart beat faster. “I know! What’s wrong?” Juliet checked her phone and said, “It’s two o’clock in the afternoon now. You went to buy fruit at nine in the morning. It’s been five hours.” He lowered his head and said, “I saw that you were not happy this morning, so I told them not to come.” There was no trace of emotion on Juliet’s cold face. Elijah said tentatively, “I admit that I have neglected you recently. There is a class reunion tomorrow with all our old friends. How about we go together?” Juliet’s pallid expression lent her a frozen, lifeless appearance. She turned around. “Alright! Whatever!”
The next day, Elijah took Juliet to a class reunion. There were several familiar high school classmates in there. They smiled and said, “We’ve been watching you since high school. You’re still in love after all these years.” Their classmate Dylan Higgins patted Elijah on the shoulder and said, “A good man should be like you.” Elijah put his arm around Juliet’s shoulders and said, “Juliet is the love of my life.” But Juliet struggled unnaturally. “Take a seat first!” Elijah didn’t feel anything wrong. Having dinner, they started playing games. But when it was Juliet’s turn, she lost. “Truth or dare?” Juliet chose the truth, and everyone asked, “Where was the first time you kissed Elijah?” Juliet thought for a long time and answered, “I can’t remember. It’s been too long.” Elijah seemed unable to believe it, standing up abruptly. “I remember everything. How could you not remember?” Juliet remained silent. Elijah angrily slammed the table and yelled, “Don’t you love me anymore?” Dylan tried to smooth things over. “Come on. The next round.” Juliet lost this round again, and she chose the dare. Elijah suggested that she hide for an hour. And no one could discover her, or she lost. Juliet went out and hid in the women’s restroom. Half an hour later, she heard Elijah’s voice coming from the men’s restroom opposite. “You just can’t control yourself, huh? You’re pregnant.” “Come on!” It was Shirley’s seductive cry. Juliet moved closer step by step, and the voice became more evident. “Baby, I miss you so much. I really want to be with you every day.” The restroom door suddenly opened a little, and Juliet saw Elijah holding Shirley’s body with his head on her neck. Shirley pouted and asked, “Do you think Juliet is ugly?” Elijah paused and replied in a hoarse voice, “Yes! Yes! Yes! Are you happy now?” Juliet sent a message to Elijah saying that she was scared to be alone. But Elijah replied: [You forgot our past. This is your punishment.] Juliet stood there numbly and motionlessly. She clutched the wall with a sudden stomachache and left. Walking on the empty road, she couldn’t help but tremble. It started to rain, causing Juliet’s dizziness. She stumbled to the hospital and then fainted. Waking up, she heard the doctor say at the bedside, “You are six months pregnant.” The news left her feeling dazed and her head buzzing. She stroked her belly and thought absentmindedly, “This baby came at a terrible time.” The doctor left her alone, and Juliet curled up and sat motionless until dawn. As Elijah woke up in the morning, the first thing he did was put on his pants and look for Juliet. But Dylan stopped him with a smile. “Why are you in such a hurry? Your wife won’t be lost.” Elijah’s face darkened. “Get out of the way.” Returning home, he found Juliet was trimming the branches of flowers. Elijah’s heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. “They gave me too much to drink last night…” Juliet interrupted him, “I understand. Go and have a rest.” Elijah’s discomfort subsided, and he went into the bedroom. After he fell asleep, Juliet sat at the head of the bed and looked coldly at the dark circles under his eyes. He seemed so tired. He must have had a passionate night. Juliet’s gaze shifted away from Elijah’s face, and she took down the sunny doll hanging by the window. It was given by her brother, Antonio Flair. Antonio loved Juliet very much and was the person she trusted the most. Today was his memorial day. The sunny doll was a little strange. Juliet observed it for a long time and found that a ball of paper was stuffed inside. She took it out and unfolded the paper. There was a sentence written on it: [Do you want to know the truth? Come to your brother’s tombstone tonight.] Juliet’s heart clouded over. Noting Elijah’s deep sleep, she set out for Antonio’s tomb. Arriving at the door, she found an express package, inside which was a recorder. Juliet opened it and heard Elijah’s voice. “I hate Juliet’s brother the most. I can’t stand his arrogant attitude.” There were a few small notes inside. [Juliet, do you want to know why Elijah didn’t go back on the day your brother died?] Juliet was stunned, her mind in a mess, and she couldn’t concentrate. She checked another small note. [Come to your brother’s tombstone. That’s where the truth is.] Juliet hurriedly got a cab. Antonio loved her the most. He even got crippled to save her. He had protected her since she was a child and gave her everything good. When Elijah had nothing, it was Antonio who gave him the start-up capital. At that time, Elijah promised to treat her well for the rest of his life. Juliet rushed to Antonio’s tombstone, only to find a familiar woman pouring ink on it. She stared at it for a long time and found out it was Shirley.
Juliet rushed over and asked her angrily, “What are you doing?” Shirley cursed arbitrarily, “You ugly bastard! I want to vomit whenever I see your face.” Juliet could no longer bear it and yelled at her, “I’m not someone you can easily mess with. If you dare to insult my brother, I will kill you.” Yet Shirley smiled grimly, “Back then, I had a stomachache during my period, and Elijah drove to take care of me, so he wasn’t with you when your brother died. “On the night your brother was buried, Elijah held me and made out with me in front of your brother’s tombstone for five hours. You may not know this, right?” Shirley sneered, “Do you think Elijah really loves you? He said he was tired of you a long time ago. If it weren’t for his reputation, he would have already dumped you. “And Elijah said that your brother was an uneducated upstart who made a fortune by relying on some small tricks. He deserved to die early.” Shirley’s words were the last blow, shattering Juliet’s remaining rationality. She widened her eyes in disbelief, then lunged at Shirley with a snarl. “I’m going to kill you… “You two scumbags…” Shirley’s neck was tightly pinched, and she soon turned blue. Juliet’s tears flowed, and she just wanted to kill the person in front of her. That was her brother! Shirley found the right moment and kicked Juliet hard in the stomach with her high heels. Juliet curled up in pain. Shirley seized the moment, taking off her high heels to strike Juliet. “You ugly bastard! You look like a toad. Go to hell! Go to hell!” Juliet covered her head, a lot of blood flowing from her lower body. Shirley stood up shakily and spat, “What bad luck.” And then she left. Juliet screamed at the top of her lungs, her wet hair sticking to her forehead. “Why! Why do you treat me like this…” Her eyebrows were twisted, eyes popped, nostrils flared, and veins bulged as she breathed heavily with a hoarse voice. Juliet abruptly recalled something and took out a small gift box from her pocket. After opening it, her phone made a beep, and there was a link. Juliet clicked on it and found that it was a video. The woman in the video had scars, and her right arm was peppered with pinholes. She stared at the camera and said quietly, “Whoever sees this video, you have pawned my help. I met my boyfriend in college, but he tricked me to an isolated island. I became a toy for the rich, and finally, I contracted a sexually transmitted disease and was thrown on the street.” The video ended with, “Please stay strong and live on. Please stay strong no matter what.” As Juliet was about to lose consciousness, a plump woman approached the gravestone and embraced her tenderly. “I have been betrayed before, so I opened this shop to help more women escape the whirlpool of marriage.” Juliet held her hand tightly and saw her face clearly. “Andrea, I… I want to live…” When Juliet woke up, she felt cramps in her lower abdomen. “My baby…” Andrea’s eyes revealed pity. “Your baby is gone…” Elijah called at this moment. “I need to go to Austal for a concert. It will take about a week.” Juliet said “Okay” coldly and hung up the phone. Then, she was drowned in her thoughts. Andrea suggested that she check social media. Juliet checked it and saw that the video of herself and Shirley was edited into her beating Shirley, with the title “The famous writer beat up an internet celebrity in the cemetery and even looked down on her.” The popularity of the post soared, and many netizens cursed. [I never thought she was such a person. I used to read her books…] [She is not only ugly in appearance, but also ugly in heart…] Juliet felt dizzy as if the world was spinning and she had lost her sense of direction. Andrea supported her. “Don’t worry. I got this. We are here for you! But your top priority now is to take care of yourself first!” Juliet hugged Andrea, her eyes empty, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. She tried to hide her collapse with a smile, but her smile was more miserable than crying, and tears were welling up in her eyes. “I want to perform one last memory wipe.” Andrea nodded. Juliet stripped and underwent the final memory wipe, involving a non-invasive brain surgery. The doctor said hesitantly, “You can’t use anesthesia. Are you okay with that?” Juliet didn’t waver at all but nodded firmly. Countless tubes were inserted into her body, including one down her throat. She couldn’t stop vomiting, and sweat was pouring down her forehead. Juliet’s scalp was nicked by a small knife, causing her to arch her back and break her nails gripping the table. Andrea looked at her with concern. In the meantime, Shirley posted on her social media account. [My boyfriend accompanied me to Austal for a trip. Look at the ring, flowers, and gifts he gave me. He said he would propose to me in Austal.] With Juliet’s scream, she finally cleared all her memories about Elijah. However, someone broke into the experimental base. Elijah pushed open the door, looking at Juliet in astonishment and asking blankly, “What are you doing?”
