📖 Story Synopsis:
I had clearly achieved the top score in the entire province, yet I secretly applied to a remote National Defense University instead of telling my parents and my fiancée. I decided to live the rest of my life under a hidden identity, dedicating myself to scientific research, and never wanting to see them again.
In the week before leaving, I decided to spend time with them peacefully.
I no longer got angry because my parents favored raising my cousin Makoto.
When my parents asked me to give the best things to my cousin, I neither quarreled nor resisted.
When they wanted me to give up my university admission spot, I just nodded calmly.
Even when my fiancée decided to marry my cousin, I did not hesitate to call her “my cousin’s wife.”
Everyone thought I had finally grown mature.
However, after I left, they eventually discovered Makoto’s true nature. By then, regret came too late, and they could only spend a lifetime seeking redemption.
