"I..." For the first time, Chester couldn't find his voice in front of Alice.
His troubled expression, his lingering hesitation, the explanation he struggled to utter—all proved that she had guessed his thoughts.
"It's because I'm too useless. Even after flying to T City, I still couldn't let go of you and Rachel, unwilling to give up on our relationship just like that... So I chose to compromise, to take this step back. But your ruthlessness, your coldness, truly showed me how you feel about me..." Alice laughed bitterly, mocking herself, "Alice, you're a real failure in this life. Now, even when you cling to someone, they need to consider whether they want to be with you... You pathetic fool, you should never have believed you could find happiness, because you are a damned pathetic fool..."
In the next second, she turned without hesitation, twisting the room's door open, and ran into the elevator crying...
Ada saw this and covered her mouth in astonishment.
"Alice!!"
