Part 2Saving the Villain... Twice

My mission in this world was to save the villain, Caleb.

In the original book, he was the most vicious, gloomy villain.

Abused by his family since childhood, his personality became extremely twisted.

After reaching adulthood, he would turn dark for various reasons. Not only would he kidnap and imprison the female lead, but he would also destroy the male lead's career and orchestrate a car accident to cripple him.

And I was the wealthy fiancée forced to marry him.

To prevent him from turning dark, the System tasked me with teaching him what love is.

But all I knew how to do was act cute, spend money, and be clingy.

Since arriving in this world.

I followed him around all day, calling him "hubby" non-stop.

Our families had arranged our marriage since we were kids, so calling him hubby seemed justified.

But he always reacted strongly, covering my mouth as if he couldn't stand it.

"Don't call me hubby."

"Just tell me what you want."

I blinked, cleverly changing my tune: "Brother Caleb, I want to buy a bag."

He opened a supplementary card for me decisively, his attitude impatient:

"Don't appear in front of me in the future. I don't like materialistic women like you."

I agreed readily, then turned around and moved into his house.

Not only did I bring my luggage, but I also went on a shopping spree with his card. Every day, I dressed up like a little cupcake and barged into his black-and-white world.

He was gloomy and sullen; I was lively and cheerful.

Whenever he resisted me, I cried.

The System mocked ruthlessly: "The villain is cold by nature. He was indifferent even when his own mother died. He's an emotionless monster."

"Do you really think shedding a few crocodile tears will move him?"

Is that so?

Then what was that thing poking me from behind when he got drunk before?

And who was the one stealing kisses while I was asleep?

I said nothing, just cried.

Tears streamed from my big, watery eyes. I didn't make a sound, just looked at him with a pouting, aggrieved face.

One second.

Two seconds.

He sighed helplessly, resignedly picked up a tissue to wipe my tears, and coaxed in a low voice:

"Why are you crying again?"

"So delicate."

"Didn't you like that new bag at Ginza the other day? Ask Uncle Li to take you to buy it. And that mochi ice cream you were crying for yesterday, I bought it and put it in the fridge. Ask Auntie Qiu to thaw it for you later."

"Stop crying, okay? You'll blame me if your eyes hurt later."

The System was dumbfounded.

"I thought he was a gloomy villain? How did you train him into a sugar daddy boyfriend?"

Who knows? Maybe spoiled women really do have the best lives.

Two years passed. Not only was I not kicked out of the Caleb household, but I also married Caleb and became his reason for living in this world.

The System announced his darkness value was cleared and he wouldn't disturb the protagonists' lives anymore, then disappeared.

Now, I had to summon the System again.

"System, what's going on?"

It arrived late, reacting slowly:

"Sorry, host. There was a problem with the villain in the previous timeline, causing him to turn dark prematurely. If left unchecked, the whole world would collapse, so I had to temporarily send him to this timeline."

"What you see now is seventeen-year-old Caleb. His darkness value has reached 99%."

"If possible, please save him again. Please."
