NovelEnglishChapter 187 Elizabeth walked a while longer, her footsteps slowing almost imperceptibly before she instinctively
glanced back.
Elijah’s car had already exited through another path, vanishing into the night without so much as a pause.

This was the reality she had been avoiding for years.
She had always been the one to bow her head, to offer apologies before tensions could brew into storms.
It had created an illusion of harmony, of stability.
Now, standing her ground, she realized how fragile that illusion had been.
The moonlight bathed the world in a silver glow, soft and dreamlike, but Elizabeth found no solace in it.
Forcing her thoughts away from the hollowness in her chest, she focused instead on the scenery.

of her script.
The company’s story outline was riddled with logical inconsistencies.

perfection.
She was determined to refine every detail.

When she finally looked up, an unfamiliar landscape surrounded her.
Realizing her disorientation in Foxfire County, she reached for her phone—only to find her pocket empty.
