Chapter 1

I transmigrated into a tragic romance novel and spent five years trying to win over the female lead.

I fell in love with her when she weighed two hundred pounds.

I didn't hesitate to spend every single one of my system points to make her thin and beautiful.

I really thought we would make it to the end together.

But we have had five weddings, and she ran away from every single one of them because of her first love.

At the fifth wedding, she even kissed him passionately right in front of the guests.

Everyone expected me to go crazy or have a complete breakdown.

But I didn't. I simply told the system in my mind, "I want my points back. Let Gia go back to being two hundred pounds."

1.

Our fifth wedding was interrupted by her first love, Zane Miller, just like all the others.

"You only love Gia for her looks!" Zane shouted.

"But I love everything about her. Do you have any idea how much I stayed by her side when she was at her lowest?"

He stood below the altar in a white suit, looking indignant.

Gia let go of my hand, exactly as she had done the four times before.

"I'm sorry, Xander. I can't let a man as good as Zane down."

After saying that, she rushed off the stage and kissed Zane passionately in front of everyone.

As the groom, I watched my bride lock lips with another man.

The entire venue erupted into whispers and gasps.

They all expected me to collapse or scream in rage.

But I just stood there, my expression completely calm.

I was exhausted. I didn't want to waste any more emotion on someone who wasn't worth it.

When their kiss finally ended, Gia and Zane stood there with their fingers interlocked.

There wasn't a hint of guilt on Gia's face. She just said coolly, "Xander, Zane stayed with me during my darkest days. I can't marry you."

The darkest days she was talking about were when she weighed two hundred pounds and everyone treated her like trash.

Everyone believed she got thin because Zane stayed by her side and encouraged her to work out until she became a beauty and moved abroad.

To anyone listening, it sounded like a beautiful story of a loyal first love.

But Gia only had what she had today because I, the transmigrator, traded all my points for it.

The system just made everyone believe Zane was the one who helped her to keep the world stable.

"Fine," I said softly into the microphone.

"I wish you both the best."

I looked into her bright eyes. I used to love her more than my own life.

But now, I was truly done.

Her pupils flickered with surprise.

Even Zane and the guests looked shocked.

Based on my past behavior, this wasn't the reaction they were expecting.
