She wrote, [My good friend!!]
I wasn't surprised at all.
At this moment, I felt neither disappointed nor angry, but extremely relieved.
Hailey was right. How could I, a girlfriend compare to her?
Everything remained the same before we went on the trip when I returned to the apartment.
That meant Jacob had not been back for the past few days.
It was already late at night after I cleaned up tiredly. When I was about to take a shower and go to bed, I received a message from the Chief Editor.
[Are you sure you don't want to sell the copyright, Lily? The copyright holder wants to buy your book at a high price and turn it into a movie, and there's an exclusive interview later...]
Lily was my pen name.
I once wrote more than half of a book but gave up because of the game.
The Chief Editor had contacted me about the copyright for many times, but I rejected him.
Jacob had once shut himself off because he wasn't as talented at the game as I was.
So I was afraid that if I became more famous than him by being a writer, I would hurt his fragile self-esteem.
"You've done a good job. I'm sure you'll make a name for yourself after turning it into a movie! Think about it. Countless writers can't even dream of it."
"Okay, Chief Editor, I'll sell the copyright after I finish it."
"Great!" The Chief Editor was so excited that he was almost lost in words.
"I haven't written for a long time. Give me some time and I will try to finish it perfectly."
In the past two years, there was nothing in my life but Jacob and games. As long as he needed me, I would immediately follow his orders no matter what happened, even if I needed to refund double the price and apologize in order not to get a bad comment.
I had completely lost myself.
But when I needed him, he was always by his so-called friend’s side.
I really felt that it was not worth it. I was tired physically and mentally.
Fortunately, it was not too late for me to live a wonderful life for myself.
I wanted to break up with Jacob directly, but he thought that I was making trouble on the phone.
Now I wanted to focus on finishing the book.
In order not to waste time tangling with him, I decided to wait and see.
I sorted out the plots of the book and analyzed the climax and the missing plots one by one.
Sometimes I deleted the outline, sometimes I changed it.
Once I got busy, time passed quickly.
