Craig's handsome face darkened, and with a frustrated sigh, he sent her a period, hoping to add her as a friend again and transfer the money to her.

But instead of a prompt to accept the friend request, WhatsApp showed a chilling message:

[Message sent, but rejected by the recipient.]

So, he hadn't been simply deleted; he had been blocked.

It looked like Aurora had made up her mind to cut off all contact with him.

In a way... this was what Craig had wanted to see.

But when he fully realized it, his heart felt like it was being squeezed, causing him physical pain. He even had to clutch at his chest.

Standing frozen for what felt like an eternity, only moving again when daylight started to seep through the windows, Craig finally shuffled back to the bathroom to continue his "regular" life. Shower, sleep, wake up, work for a living.

Maybe at twenty, with youthful ignorance and energy, he could have believed in a chance for something more.

But now at thirty, a high school dropout, what kind of future could he possibly dream of, especially thinking he could share a life with the heiress of the Lopez Corporation?
