No Longer By His Side

Elyse has been Tristan Brodrick’s exclusive "human pillow" since she was thirteen, accompanying the insomniac young master for ten years. She hides her humble crush, silently enduring his indifference and hurt, until she finally breaks after realizing she is merely disposable. Humiliated by Tristan’s mother and pressured by their contract, Elyse decisively ends their relationship and moves to London to start a new life. Without Elyse, Tristan’s insomnia worsens, and he belatedly realizes he has long been deeply in love with her. He chases her to London, watches her secretly, and even attempts suicide due to obsession. When they reunite, Elyse has grown into an independent and calm woman. She tears up the old wish coupon, declaring her love expired, and finally embraces freedom, leaving Tristan lost in lifelong regret.
