Whatever Beckett wanted to say in the end, I didn’t care.
After eating, I went back to my room.
Inside were the household items I had gradually acquired after we got engaged.
I sorted everything out, piling it all on the bed.
Looking at these things that I had once happily chosen while dreaming of our future in my past life, I silently packed them all into a large bag.
My cousin’s wedding was at the end of the year, and my uncle’s family wasn’t well off. These things had cost quite a bit of money to prepare, and it would be a waste to throw
them away.
So I packed everything up, planning to take it all to my cousin tomorrow.
There was a knock at the door, and I paused in my sorting.
“Cora, um, can we wait a few days to buy that jewelry? A, uh, a friend of mine is in urgent need.” Beckett’s voice came from outside the door.
Jewelry?
I was stunned for a moment before remembering that at this time in my previous life,
Beckett had said he would take me to buy some jewelry.
I remember waiting happily at home all day, but in the end, Beckett never came back.
Of course, we never bought the jewelry either.
I gave a faint “Mm,” and continued packing my own things.
Whatever I said was fine anyway, he wouldn’t be coming back.
After waiting a while outside the door, I finally heard footsteps leaving.

I continued sorting my own things.
Actually, I hadn’t moved in here for very long, so I didn’t have many personal belongings.
One suitcase was barely enough to pack everything.
What troubled me were some rarely worn clothes.
When I moved in, thinking we would be getting married soon anyway, I had brought a large portion of my clothes from home.
Looking back now, that was really a mistake.
Now, I could only find another large bag, fold these clothes neatly, tie them them back home first.
up,
and send
I went downstairs and found that Beckett had already taken the bicycle. I could only carry the heavy bag of clothes on my shoulder and walk for over half an hour before finally reaching home.
My mom saw me and thought Beckett and I had a falling out.
To avoid affecting my future college plans, I had to keep this a secret for now.
I just said I was going to buy a lot of new clothes in the next few days and didn’t have room to store these, so I brought them back first.
My mom finally relaxed.
Otherwise, if my mom knew I was planning to break off the engagement with Beckett, she would probably chase me with a knife for three blocks.
Yes.
Chase me with a knife.
