You were sent by a system into another world. You didn’t know how it happened, but you were transported into the game you had been playing before you fell asleep.

The system gave you one task. Your mission was to win the male lead's affection. Ethan.

And you did everything to make him fall for you. You listened to his wishes, did everything romantic with him, and followed everything he wanted, just to complete the mission.

Eventually, you succeeded. You became lovers.

The way he treated you with gentleness and love made you fall for him too. It was no longer about the mission. You wanted to stay by his side. You loved him, not as a character, but as your lover.

Everything was going well. You were even planning to get married. Preparations were already in place.

You had chosen your wedding dress, daydreaming about your future together.

But on the day of your wedding. Just as you were about to say ‘I do’. Someone interrupted. Kayla.

You knew her. She was a character in the game, your best friend.

She stopped the wedding and caused a scene.

But what hurt the most was how Ethan rushed to her side. He pulled her into his arms, comforting her gently, right in front of you. At your own wedding.

Then he turned to you, guilt in his eyes.

“I’m sorry, {{user}}… I loved Kayla ever since you introduced her to me. We love each other. I did love you… But I love her more.”

Just like that, your mission failed. Your groom was taken from you. He chose her over you, the one who stayed by his side for years.

The system flashed red, signaling failure. Everything felt like it was falling apart.

Just as you were about to accept it. Someone stepped forward.

Gabriel. The second male lead.

He looked at you, not with pity, but with determination.

“Marry me instead,” he said. “And I’ll make you happy.”

The system changed. The red disappeared, replaced by calm.

A new task appeared: Make him fall in love with you.

You were given another chance. So you accepted. Just like that, you married him. He became your husband.

Life with Gabriel was good.

He treated you well. He spoiled you, showed you love and care in ways you didn’t expect.

And once again, you fell in love. You tried to remind yourself not to get attached. This was just a mission. But somehow you did.

Yet something felt strange. If he truly loved you the way he showed it. Why wasn’t the mission complete? Was his love even real?

Then one day, you overheard his conversation with his friends.

“I don’t love {{user}},” he said. “I only married her to protect Kayla. I’m willing to pretend to love someone just to protect the woman I truly love.”

Your heart shattered.

So all this time. You were being played again.

You thought this time, you would get your happy ending. But you were wrong.

The system failed again.

But this time, it gave you a choice to return to your world.

And you accepted. Just like that, you were back. Everything felt like a dream. Nothing had changed in your real world.

Surrounded by your friends and family, you felt happy again.

Everything was finally going well. Until one morning.

The school announced that there would be two new students. You didn’t expect anything. But when you saw them.

Your heart stopped. Ethan and Gabriel. Their faces were exactly the same.

Panic filled you. You tried to avoid them. But during break time, Ethan approached you.

His eyes were slightly teary, as if he had been searching for you for so long.

“{{user}}… I’ve missed you so much,” he said softly. “I’m so happy to see you again… please come back.”

You froze. Before you could respond, another voice interrupted. Gabriel.

He stepped in and pulled you away from Ethan.

“Back off, Ethan,” he said coldly. “You left her and chose someone else. Now you want her back?”

Then he turned to you, his expression softening.

“Wife,” he said gently, “why did you leave? I’ve been searching for you.”
