Chapter 313 The Thread Finally Broke
The next day, Be received a call from a hospital where she had previously applied for a job, notifying her that she could start working there.
She numbly epted the offer but couldn''t bring herself to feel happy about it. Did this mean that Dominic had finally let her go for good? In that case, why didn''t she feel the anticipated relief and freedom? The invisible thread connecting them had finally snapped.
She went to the hospital in the afternoon toplete her onboarding procedures. She was scheduled to start the next day. Since the cardiac department wasn''t short-staffed, she had been assigned to the emergency department. Though the emergency department was hectic and required frequent overtime, that didn''t bother her. The busier, the better. Keeping herself upied was the only way to keep her mind from wandering.
Later that evening, Lia returned to their apartment. When Be mentioned her new job and suggested going out to celebrate, Lia''s first reaction wasn''t joy but rather a concerned question. "So... Dominic has really let you go?" Be forced a lighthearted smile. "Isn''t that good? If he doesn''t let me go, I won''t be able to live my life."
Lia sighed. "I didn''t expect you two to get together, only to break up so soon."
Be didn''t want to relive their argument on the day they broke up. Dominic had said some truly hurtful things in his anger, holding onto past grievances for years. He even dragged Dorothy into it, leaving her feeling utterly devastated. At that moment, she truly realized that their rtionship was beyond repair. The deep-rooted thorns embedded in their hearts couldn''t be removed. Every time they red up, they would

This was the fundamental reason for their breakup-everything else was just a trigger.
Since the hospital where she worked was far from Lia''s apartment, she began looking for a ce to rent closer to work, making hermute more convenient.
After a week on the job, she moved into a rented ce. It was a simple studio apartment. Although it was small, it was enough for her to live alone.
Thendlord was a woman about Be''s age who had decorated the apartment tastefully. Her only requirement was that Be take good care of the ce.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Although Be didn''t have much money, she valued a certain quality of life. Due to her profession, she had a bit of a cleanliness obsession, so thendlord readily agreed to rent the apartment to her at a reasonable price.
As she gradually adapted to her new surroundings, she started getting to know her colleagues/ in the hospital. Being a slow adapter, she wasn''t particrly good at initiating social
interactions.
Besides Lia''s fiery personality, it was unlikely that she would be close friends with anyone else. Most of her friendships remained casual acquaintances. She still maintained her usual independent lifestyle. e night after work, she returned home, showered, and heated some sausages. Just as she sat down to fill her stomach, the doorbell rang
Since she didn''t know anyone in the area, her first thought was that she had made too much noise and disturbed a neighbor. She hurried to the door and was surprised to see Felix standing outside.
She hadn''t informed him that she had moved here, so she asked in surprise, "How did your know I was here?"

Felix held tworge shopping bags in his hands. "I asked Lia. You don''t tell me anything. Do you not consider me a friend?"
Be scratched her head awkwardly. "No, you''re overthinking it. Come in and have a seat."
As he entered and ced the bags down, he looked around before his gazended on the bowl
of freshly heated sausages. "Nice setup; it''s cozy. I figured you''d be too busy to take care of yourself. Sure enough, you''re eating sausages sote. I brought you some convenient ingredients."
