Chapter 51

Noella’s POV

I waited upon him in his chamber for days without seeing daylight and yet he didn’t come. I yearn to see him but he is nowhere to be found, I also wish I could drink at least water since they deprived me from eating—nothing came.

I was hopeless and lonely, with no one to encourage or tell me—”You did what you did, chin up.” And I also choose not to build regret in my heart because that was the needful thing I had to do as a filial child.

I swallowed my saliva and also gasp for air, my life right now was hell on earth.

While training, I didn’t think about the what-ifs. I didn’t prepare any plan for my failure.

I was so confident that I would win over him and also be the lead but my failure crumpled me into pieces that I can never be fixed by the best puzzle player.

If I had prepared an after-failure plan at least I would have had a solution to my current situation rather than sitting on the floor pitiful like a bag of cement.
