"Huh?!"
The teacup fell from his hands with a crash after I said what I wanted. I just took a deep breath and looked at him seriously, not showing any feelings.
"A-Alyssa, w-what do y-you m-mean?" he stammered, his eyes looking everywhere but at me. Just like I thought, he was super surprised by what I just said.
"I'm serious, Ben. I want us to stop being engaged," I told him with a small smile.
The person in front of me was my fiancé... my fiancé who was also the Crown Prince. I knew it sounded crazy to break off our engagement because he was going to be the next Emperor. But... being his fiancé was really hard, especially with all the other ladies who saw me as their enemy.
I broke off our engagement because I knew what was going to happen in the future.
Basically... I woke up in this world again, in the world of a book I really loved. In the book 'My Precious Lover,' I wasn't the main good girl or the main bad girl. I was just a side character who died at the very beginning because the bad girl was obsessed with my fiancé.Maybe because the Prince loved me so much, he didn't trust any other women after I died. That is, until the main good girl came along and helped him out of his sadness.
The bad girl in the story is my older sister. The reason why she wasn't locked up or killed was because someone else took the blame for her.
So she lived...And that's why the Prince hated her. Even if he knew she was the one who did bad things, he couldn't do anything about it because he didn't have any proof. If he tried to accuse her without proof, it would just look like he was making things up because our family was way more powerful than the royal family.
Before I died because of my sister... I needed to avoid the thing that would lead to my death... and that was the Crown Prince.
I wanted to live a happy and free life. Since I was born rich, I could have anything I wanted!
So... I had to stay away from the story's main events."Alyssa... are you okay? Why all of a sudden?"
I heard him say as he suddenly held my hand tightly. I took a big breath and pulled my hand away from his. He looked really shocked, seeing how I didn't seem to care."I'm tired, Ben. I'm tired of everything because I'm with you... I want to live a long life. If I want that to happen, I need to break up with you," I told him, and he looked confused.
"Is this about Amelia? I promise I'll protect you! Please, just don't leave me alone!" he said sadly, but I didn't change my mind...
No matter how sad he looked... I didn't care because my life was more important than anything else... especially since I got a second chance to live.
It might sound selfish, but I shouldn't die so that the person he's really meant to be with can take my place.
This just shows that we're not meant to be together.
"Ben, because of your empty promises, I almost died when someone accidentally pushed me into the lake... I've had enough. Their mean jokes have gone too far. I want to break up," I told him, and he frowned.
I knew that Ben loved Alyssa more than anyone in the world. But he was going to fall in love with someone else, and that someone else was the main good girl.
"Alyssa... I can give you anything, but please don't leave me. I-... I can't live without you... Please," he begged, taking my hands and putting them on his cheeks as tears fell from his eyes.
I'm not a bad person... I'm a girl who feels sorry for people easily, but this was about me staying alive.
"Ben, stop... I'm tired. I don't want to die young," I told him and stood up from my chair. I bowed to him before leaving his castle.
The Crown Prince, who loved his fiancé so much that he stayed away from other women...If I was the real Alyssa... I wouldn't let the Prince go... But this was about me surviving.
I don't need to become the Prince's wife or the Empress.Because if all I wanted was money and power, I already had a lot of it.
I would rather choose to stay alive than to have love...
So, ladies, the Prince is all yours!!!
