Chapter 401
Colin felt sorry for me. He reached out his hand, wanting to hug me. However, we were not just
separated by two screens; we were thousands of miles away.
He extended his fingers to wipe away my tears on the screen and tried to reassure me softly. He asked
me to wait for him patiently and that he would be back soon.
But I knew it was all empty words. “Soon” was still two months away; it wasn’t going to be a day earlier.
Moreover, two months was only an estimate. If he could not return in time, there was no telling when
we would reunite.
We had just started dating, and now he was off to a distant ce. How was I supposed to survive
alone?
I cried uncontrobly, as though I could already foresee his apologetic announcement. Our separation
would be prolonged indefinitely, with no end in sight.
At that time, I was merely specting. Little did I know, my predictions came true. I loathed how my
negative forecasts always turned out to be true.
Queenie was one of the top students at Lincoln University among her peers. The school had a good
reputation, and she graduated with flying colors. After a brief search, shended a job she liked at a
foreign tradepany not far from Jinovy.
She was anguage whiz, fluent in Eshton, Flingon, and Gurbit. She was also self–taught in Koproan
and Sebern, though not as proficient. At thepany, she handledmunication with foreign clients.
If she performed well during the three–month trial period, she could join the trantion team as a
professional trantor.
On the day Queenie passed her interview, it was the first time I saw her smile so happily. She said that
she had always dreamed of being a diplomat since she was a child. Since she wasn’t able to be a
diplomat, bing a trantor was the next best thing.

When Queenie became the chief trantor in the team, she could follow her boss to travel the world
and immerse herself in different cultures andndscapes. It was the perfect life to be able to travel for
free while earning a sizable ie.
Her eyes gleamed with excitement as she shared her ns. It was as though she radiated with
newfound confidence. Perhaps it was the right decision to leave Flynn.
As I watched her speak so passionately, I couldn’t help but think that this was the Queenie at her full

months as promised, I would search for another person who was willing to take care of me. I wondered
about his reaction when he heard thest one. Maybe he woulde back immediately just to strangle
me. Anyway, I just wanted to make him a little nervous.
Since Queenie and I got upte, we didn’t have breakfast. After getting ready, I took her out for lunch.
I had sses in the afternoon, so Queenie said she would take a walk around nearby and see if she
could find a suitable job. I gave her a set of keys and asked her to be careful and to call me if anything
happened.
It was good to go out for a walk. A change of ce could change one’s mood and way of life.
People still needed to live even without love. And with a job to keep her busy, she should be able to get
over the gloom sooner. She might even find her soulmate.
Colin video–called me at around five in the evening.
I was reading in my room, so I quickly answered the call. As soon as I saw his chiseled handsome face
on the screen, I teared up due to my fragile emotions. I gave him a puppy look, silently using him of
abandoning me.
He felt sorry for me, but he couldn’t hug me through the screen. We were so far apart from each other
right now. He could only tell me to wait patiently and that he would be back soon.

version of her was the real Queenie! It might just be the right decision for her to leave Flynn.
I lived a simple life. During the day, I attended sses while Queenie went to work. In the evenings, we
stayed at home and experimented with recipes. I was preparing to be a good wife in the future
while she was keeping herself busy to avoid dwelling on the past.
She hoped to quickly get over the painful memories of Flynn.
Speaking of Flynn, it had been almost two weeks since Queenie arrived, and I hadn’t seen him call her
even once. I wasn’t sure if he was busy keeping Danipany and had forgotten about Queenie.
Every day, it pained my heart to hear Queente quietly cry under the covers for almost half the night. I
felt utterly powerless and heartbroken.
Sometimes, I contemted confronting Flynn to ask if he was truly so heartless. How could he
disregard the years of love they shared? Why was he willing to settle for a shameful marriage just for
the sake of his family’s interests?
Since Queenie didn’t question Flynn, I felt it was inappropriate for me to do so. Moreover, I was worried
that my interference might disrupt the peace that Queenie had finally found.
Queenie’s mood was bing calmer day by day. However, she was still noticeably fragile and thin. I
couldn’t see the wounds in her heart, but it seemed to me that she was slowly epting the reality of
life without Flynn. She was starting to embrace the idea of living a new
life.
One day, Queenie would be able to forget all her unhappy past and find sce in someone who would
mend her broken heart.
