The servant shook her head, confusion written all over her face. "I don't know... I didn't dare look."Hearing this, Tristan became even more anxious. Without a second thought, he rushed upstairs and knocked on the bedroom door. When there was no answer, he kicked the door open. He and Eleanor stormed in together.What they found made them freeze.Samuel was unmoved by the loud commotion. His back was to them as he sat at the desk, mechanically repeating the motion of writing on the paper. Beside him was a stack of filled notebooks.Tristan and Eleanor moved closer to him, and both were shocked.Samuel had written over and over again: "Bella, I was wrong."The words were densely packed on the pages, as if he were trying to release the pain and regret from deep within his heart through this endless apology.Eleanor was heartbroken for her son, and she tried to console him through her tears. "Bella is gone. No matter how much you torture yourself, she won't come back. Who told you

But none of what those people said mattered to Samuel. All that mattered was what Isabella thought.Samuel was determined to spread the news as widely as possible, and he immediately instructed the PR department to upload the video to the company's official website. He even ran ads on mainstream social media platforms across the globe, replacing the usual company promotional videos.As for his phone, it remained on 24/7, always within arm's reach. He was afraid he would miss any news related to Isabella.Days passed, and while he received numerous calls, none were about what he truly hoped for. At first, it was just scammers pretending to have seen Isabella. They made up random stories about bumping into her in different places and tried to con him for money.Samuel had a vague sense that these were lies, but he clung to the faint hope they offered. He would rather pay them off than face the crushing reality.The days stretched on, and he lost count of how much money he had wast
A Whisper of Love's End Chapter 1
After signing the agreement, Isabella Jones stepped out and happened to catch a live interview with Samuel Grant on the news.The host asked, "Mr. Grant, you're so young and accomplished. What's your secret to success?"Samuel raised his left hand and pointed to the wedding ring on his ring finger. "The secret is simple. I have a wonderful wife."The host blinked in surprise. "Oh? I thought you'd share some insights about the industry and your future plans instead.""That's not important. All the wealth I have right now doesn't compare to even a single strand of my wife's hair.""Wow, I really envy your wife…"On the screen, Samuel glanced at his watch, then smiled at the camera. "Sorry, we'll have to pause the interview for a moment. Time's almost up. I'd like to use this live broadcast to say something to my wife.""Of course, Mr. Grant. Go ahead."Samuel's voice softened. "Bella, I just had someone bring you some ginger tea with honey. It should be arriving soon. Drink it an

Isabella pulled her hand out of Samuel's grasp."Maybe I lost it when I left the house this morning."Samuel immediately reached for his phone to dial a number. "I'll have someone go look for it right now."Isabella shook her head. "No need. Just consider it lost.""How can you just let it go? This ring is our wedding ring—it's proof of our love."Proof of their love?Their love had already been shattered beyond recognition by his countless betrayals.Isabella laughed softly. "It's just a piece of jewelry. It doesn't guarantee love."Samuel insisted, "Diamonds are the hardest thing on Earth. It represents my unchanging heart for you.""And what if one day, you betray me?""That's impossible.""I'm asking, what if?"Samuel looked at her, his gaze sincere, even solemn. He swore, "If I ever betray you, let me be pierced by a thousand arrows and die a painful death."Isabella turned her face away, not wanting to see the fake earnesty in his eyes.Back when she still loved him

Samuel thought for a moment, then nodded with a patient smile. "Okay, let's open our surprises together. It'll be more meaningful that way."Isabella suddenly had the urge to see Samuel's reaction when he found out she had passed away and when he saw the divorce papers after. Would he be shocked, confused, or... surprised?Samuel, ever the charmer, tried to cheer her up. "I heard there's a good movie out. How about I take you to see it?"Isabella wasn't interested, but the theater he mentioned was right next to their old high school. It was the place where he had confessed his love to her for the first time.Back in their school days, they spent countless romantic, sweet moments on the street behind the school. It was a place that witnessed the happiest days of their love.Since that was where it all began, it might as well be where it ended.When they arrived at the theater, it was a little crowded.Samuel wrapped his arm around her protectively, pulling her close to shield h

Samuel didn't return until the movie was almost over.He still smelled of that sickly-sweet, pungent scent.In addition to that, he brought a box of popcorn."Bella, I'm sorry I'm late. The popcorn machine broke down at the theater, and they spent forever fixing it. It's freshly made, though. Eat it while it's warm."Isabella waved her hand. "I don't want any.""Not even the ginger tea with honey?""I don't want it.""Alright, no food, no drink, then. Let's just watch the movie."Isabella scoffed. "The movie's almost over.""It's all that technician's fault. He took so long to fix the machine.""So, for the last three hours, you've just been waiting for him to fix it?"Samuel nodded earnestly. "Yes. Isaac can vouch for me. If you don't believe me, you can ask him.""No need," Isabella said, grabbing her bag and walking away.Samuel hurried after her, holding her coat and the popcorn. "Bella, just tell me what I did wrong. I'll change, okay? Don't ignore me. I'm scared.""
A Whisper of Love's End Chapter 5
Being held by Samuel used to feel like happiness. But now, Isabella only felt discomfort.She broke free from his embrace and stepped away from him, putting a few paces between them.Samuel seemed even more panicked and rushed after her. "Bella, do you want to go on a trip? Next week, I promise I'll clear my schedule and spend all my time with you. Don't be mad. Don't leave me, okay?"Isabella only felt a cold emptiness inside.The man who was begging her not to leave, pleading like this—was he the real Samuel? Or was it the man she had seen on the video, tangled up with Jennifer?Isabella couldn't tell anymore.But it didn't matter. Soon, she would leave him forever. Whether she knew which version of him was real, it wouldn't make any difference.She spoke flatly, "You're overthinking. Didn't you say we're having a ceremony for our anniversary?"Samuel still didn't believe it and continued to pester her. "But what about the new documents you mentioned? What documents did you g

In the following days, messages from Samuel and Jennifer kept coming in.Three days before their anniversary, Isabella checked her messages.Jennifer: The sea breeze in Hawaii is so nice! The seafood is delicious too, but he says I can't eat seafood because I'm pregnant. So, he ran really far to buy me Eastern food!Attached was a picture of a Hawaiian beach scene.There was the sand and a coconut grove. Not far away, Samuel was opening a take-out box.Samuel: There are so few choices of Eastern food here. I had to travel far to find some. Bella, what did you eat today?Isabella had spent the day with her close friends.They had a barbeque and had a great time.After all, she was about to change her identity and leave. It would be hard to see them again, so she wanted to cherish this last time.Two days before their anniversary, Isabella's phone vibrated with incoming messages.Jennifer: The baby is only a month old, and he's already studying early childhood education. He's g

It wasn't until they brought her into the operating room that Jennifer finally let out a scream. It was loud and raw, and she sounded like an animal being slaughtered."How dare you touch my child! I'm carrying Samuel's firstborn son! He's going to inherit the Grant family's fortune!""Enough yelling," one of the men in black suits replied coldly. "Mr. Grant ordered us to terminate the pregnancy. That's what we're doing.""What...?" Jennifer's voice trembled in disbelief.Samuel was even more ruthless than she had imagined.-When Samuel received the news, he didn't even bother to hear the whole story. With a cold expression, he waved his hand dismissively. "As long as it's gone, that's enough. Don't tell me about her again. If she causes any more trouble, handle it quietly.""Yes, sir," his assistant, Frederick Lane, responded quickly, but then changed the subject. "Mr. Grant, there's one more thing. A private investigator in Aldoria found someone who looked very much like Mrs.

Using her body to get what she wanted had become second nature to Jennifer.The words hung in the air, and the crowd of onlookers shifted. A few men's faces twisted with greedy desire, inching closer, clearly eager to take advantage. Thankfully, others in the crowd acted quickly, pulling them back before they could make a move.One man, clearly frustrated, shook off his companion's grip. "What are you stopping me for? This is a great deal!"The man was worried if he moved slowly, someone would be the one to offer Jennifer a piece of clothing first. He knew that chances like this didn't come around often.His friend snapped at him, "Wake up, man! This woman's easy, but she might have a disease or something!"The others who had been inching closer to her hesitated, unsure now.That made sense. Nothing came cheap. Jennifer was young, beautiful, and bold—why else would a man strip her and toss her out the front door like that? There had to be something wrong with her.Even the man

Jennifer had often sent these twisted justifications in messages to Isabella, trying to provoke her, convinced that this tactic would work. But Isabella had never once responded, making her believe that her strategy was actually effective.What she didn't know was that Isabella simply didn't waste time on people who weren't worth it.The crowd listening to Jennifer's rant initially looked confused and shocked, but soon, they couldn't help themselves and burst into laughter. It was the first time many of them had heard something so ridiculous in person.Jennifer heard the laughter growing louder around her and realized she had put her foot in her mouth. She wished she could just disappear into the ground, but there was no escape.To make matters worse, someone in the crowd seemed intent on stirring things up further. A voice rang out, loud and mocking, "If love has no first or second place, that man must truly love you, right?"Through gritted teeth, Jennifer snapped back, "Of cour

The security guards were paid to do their job, and they wasted no time in carrying out their orders."What do you think you're doing?" Jennifer hadn't expected Samuel to go through with it. She screamed in terror, "Samuel… Master! You can't be so heartless…"Before she could finish, two security guards grabbed her by the arms, one on each side. They lifted her off the ground as if she were just a piece of luggage. Then, they quickly dragged her out of the living room, through the yard, and unceremoniously tossed her onto the pathway outside. The door slammed shut behind them as they returned inside to report back.The sudden rush of cold air outside jolted Jennifer to her senses, and she realized just how inappropriate her state of dress was for being outside. Shivering, she wrapped her arms around herself, her voice breaking as she rang the doorbell again. "Samuel, I know I was wrong... Please, for the baby I'm carrying, you can't do this to me..."Her words were full of bitternes
A Whisper of Love's End Chapter 14
Jennifer was half-dressed and vulnerable, and she looked extremely pitiful. She didn't believe Samuel would remain unfazed by her state. After all, it was how she had lured him in the first place—throwing herself into his arms. Samuel liked to put on the image of a respectable man, always wearing his wedding ring, but when it came to getting into bed with her, he hadn't exactly held back.But this time, things were different.Samuel looked at Jennifer, her face flushed with feigned shyness as she tried to seduce him again, and he felt nothing but disgust.With a sharp push, he sent her stumbling away. His anger was now undeniable as he coldly demanded, "Why did you send those disgusting messages to Isabella?"Jennifer's heart skipped a beat. She hadn't expected to be caught so quickly. Trying to feign ignorance, she asked, "What messages? I don't understand what you're talking about."Jennifer hadn't expected to get away with it forever. But with someone as mild-mannered as Isab
A Whisper of Love's End Chapter 13
Jennifer somehow managed to get her hands on Isabella's number, and she had been sending messages relentlessly. The latest one, sent just yesterday morning, left Samuel feeling a mix of emotions he couldn't quite put into words. Fighting the urge to vomit, he scrolled through her messages one by one.[Mrs. Grant, you must know by now, right? Samuel only feels an obligation towards you now. If not, how could he fall for me? A woman with no love really is pitiful.][Look, this is the necklace he personally designed for me. The diamond is even bigger than your wedding ring.][It's my birthday today. He probably lied to you and said he was seeing a client. Heh, but I was right next to him when he called you.]Among the messages were several photos, including some obscene ones of the two of them in bed.Samuel felt a cold chill spread through him. He had always thought of Jennifer as just another vain woman, someone who could be easily dismissed with money. But now, he realized her

Samuel did see it.The divorce papers had been tucked inside the carefully prepared gift she had left for him. She had said it was a surprise for him.Had Isabella already made up her mind to leave him early on?As he stood there, Jonathan calmly pulled out another copy of the document from the desk behind him and handed it over.Noticing Samuel's dark expression as though he was about to tear the paper again, Jonathan spoke in an even tone, "If you're not tired of tearing them up, feel free to. I have a printer here. I can print as many copies of the agreement as you need, anytime."Samuel deflated like a wilted plant. His frustration mounted, and he ran his hands through his hair, trying to calm down. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have let my emotions get the best of me. But I can't live without her... Please, can you tell me if... if she really went to the mountaintop?"Jonathan shook his head. "I'm sorry. I'm only here to handle the divorce. I don't know anything else."Samuel clu
