Chapter 815:
Her voice seemed to fracture under an invisible weight, and she simply stared into the camera’s unblinking eye, her silence heavy with unspoken sorrows and borrowed grief.
Eventually, she pressed her palm against her lips, weeping as though her universe had shattered into irreparable fragments.
Concern rippled through the gathered crowd like wildfire. “Vivian, what troubles you? Has something gone wrong? Share your burden with us, and we’ll shoulder it together!”
Vivian brushed moisture from her cheekbones, shaking her head with practiced resignation. “This matter weighs little in the grand scheme of things. Something inevitable—something that was always…”
She summoned what appeared to be courageous acceptance, her smile wavering with feigned bravery. “My illness advances more swiftly than medical predictions suggested. I may not survive until the date I promised you earlier.”
The assembled crowd exploded into chaos and distress. Vivian’s devoted admirers dabbed at their streaming tears, grief etching lines across their faces.
“Please don’t mourn for me,” Vivian continued, her voice steady despite the performance. “This chapter marks the conclusion of my story. Whether I have one additional day or one fewer, the mathematics of mortality remain unchanged. It’s simply that…”
She turned her gaze directly into the camera lens, embodying tragic beauty wrapped in ethereal vulnerability.
“I had hoped to demonstrate how someone fights through their final earthly days, hoping my struggle might kindle strength in others… but now I simply cannot continue this battle.”
Vivian’s smile trembled through her tears, and under the carefully orchestrated lighting and camera angles, she appeared breathtakingly fragile, like porcelain on the verge of shattering.
“I offer you my deepest apologies,” Vivian whispered, bowing with profound theatrical reverence.

When she lifted her head, her voice carried toward the camera with the precision of a blade finding its mark. “Millie, when you sold that song ‘Glimmer of Love’ to me, you asked with such cruel delight whether it would become my funeral dirge. You couldn’t suppress your eagerness for my death, could you? Well, here’s your vindication—your twisted wish has bloomed into reality. My final breath draws near.”
The words hung in the air like smoke from a dying flame. Vivian’s composure crumbled as she “accidentally” lost her grip on consciousness, her hand flying to cover her mouth in apparent distress. Strong arms immediately caught her swaying form, and when she pulled her hand away, crimson stained both her lips and her trembling fingers.
In that electrifying instant, desperate cries of concern and anguished pleas for her to cling to life erupted from every direction around her.
Deep within her chest, Vivian savored the intoxicating taste of victory coursing through her veins.
She had mastered the ancient art of advancing through retreat, turning apparent weakness into her greatest weapon. This single theatrical moment would shatter every argument against her and rebuild her narrative from the ashes.
