Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 16 - Ladies of the Miller Mansion
THE makeup on Hannah’s wrists was washed away after bathing Bridget. The bruises on her wrist are still there. She smiled bitterly, “I wonder how angry they would be if they had seen these bruises. Bruises that are hard to make excuses for. What could I tell them? I accidentally tied myself to the bed, then tried my best to free myself,” She mumbled mockingly to herself as she took a jacket to hide her wrists.Then she smiles at her reflection. She is thankful that the wound on her lip and bruise on her cheek are almost invisible and easy to hide using a light concealer.Soon she sat on the bed staring at her sleeping daughter. She sighed deeply and soon checked the phone Clarise had given her.She types in a number she remembers by heart, she’s about to press the call button but changes her mind.“Why do I miss him? All he gave me was coldness and humiliation,” She thought. She was about to sleep through her despair, but she suddenly received a message from Clarise. She opens it, and
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 17 - The Hive
EARLY in the morning when Hannah received a message from Atlas Carone.“The divorce has been finalized.” The text reads.In a heartbeat, her three years of marriage with Xander ended, and she was littered with mixed emotions. She wanted to cry and celebrate at the same time.She hadn’t thought of how to react when Clarise burst inside the room, “Have you received the message from Atlas,” She yelled out.Hannah nods.Clarise ran to her and gave her a warm hug. “You’re free from the Millers.” She added.Hannah smiled faintly and could only nod. “Yeah, but…” She paused. “It's just the beginning. We have joint custody of Bridget, so… I will still see Xander once or twice a week.” She explains.She lowered her head in woe, “I really want sole custody, but I think that’s the best option he could give me without any trouble.” She remarked.Clarise patted her back, “It’s okay. I might not like him, but he’s still Bridget’s father.” She sighed and then beamed as an idea came up to her. “How abo
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 18
DENISE can sense how Xander’s mood changes for the worse when Clarise announces the divorce in public.“Seems like Hannah is enjoying herself and can’t wait to have a new man around her.” She commented while smiling gleefully as she wrapped her hands around Xander’s arms.Xander glared at her the moment she spoke those words, and she slowly let go of his arm and could only grit her teeth discreetly.Oblivious to Xander’s bad temper, Ashton seconded Denise’s comment. “Seems like the gold digger has already given up bewitching you and looking for a new man to swindle. I pity the next guy.” He mumbles while eyeing the girls on the dance floor.“You should be enjoying yourself too. Especially when Denise is here.” He added without glancing at Xander. He didn’t notice that Xander had already left his seat.When Toby got back to their table, only Ashton and Denise were there.“Where’s Xander?” He asks.Ashton turned around and then shrugged. “He was just there a moment ago.” He remarks.Den
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 19
BACK at THE HIVE bar.“Xander’s car is gone and Hannah is not with her friends. Where could they be?” Denise yelled at the top of her lungs. “Denise, calm yourself,” Ashton mumbles softly while trying his best to contact Xander’s phone, but his calls remain unanswered.“It’s that bitch again. She’s trying to seduce Xander.” She accuses as she paces in the parking lot. Ashton lowered his head, “I can’t reach Xander anymore. I think he turned off his phone.” He uttered.“Did you know where she stays? Maybe Xander is in there too.” She said desperately.Soon, Ashton dialed a number, “Hey, it's me. Do you have an address for Hannah Smith?” He asks the man on the other line who is clearly awoken by his call.The man sighs, “Yes. I do.”Ashton grinned, “Great.”The man then proceeded to give the address.“Told tell my father about this,” Ashton remarks.Soon the call ended. He glanced at the distressed Denise. “I have an address,” he uttered. CONCURRENTLY, at the hotel.Breathless from a
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 20
DENISE and Ashton park their car a block away from Clarise's house. They watch how Clarise, Zane, and Leon return to the house.They even discreetly check if Xander is with them inside the car, but no trace of him or Hannah.Denise grew impatient and wanted to march in there and ask them, but Ashton assured her that even if Xander was left alone with Hannah he wouldn't do anything because Hannah was no more than a thing that he used when he was feeling lonely and that now Denise -- the love of his life was back he could simply pour all that to her.Denise did not feel better, and it only added more to her anxiety."Can you call Toby? Maybe he knew where they were. He is friends with that bitch." She cried out worriedly.Ashton cleared his throat, "Friend" is a strong word. Toby is just being nice to her because of Xander, but now that they are divorcing, I don't think Toby would care about her." He pointed out.She grunted, "Just call him." She uttered in annoyance.He sighed and then
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 21 - No More Than Trash
ASHTON frantically ran out of his car, ignoring that he had left all the lights and both doors open. He tried his best to stop the inevitable fight in front of him.On the other hand, the taxi sped away from the scene. As soon as the fight began, “Women,” the taxi driver uttered while glancing at his rearview mirror. “Denise!” He yelled out as he moved between the two ladies. Seeing Ashton mediating, Hannah took advantage of it and ran to Clarise’s house. Witnessing this, Denise pushed Ashton and sprinted her way to Hannah like a mad woman.“You! Where’s Xander?” She yelled out as she tried to reach for Hannah’s hair, but since it was a wig her efforts held nothing. She threw the wig on the ground and tried to attack again, but Hannah had enough of it and fought back. She yanked Denise’s hair using her right hand then continued to slap her with her left. Denise winces in pain but shows no sign of backing down.Ashton’s eyes widened in horror hearing and seeing Denise being bullied l
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 22 - Under The Bus
“YOU lied! You slept with him didn’t you!” Clarise accused. Hannah could only lower her head in shame. “I’m sorry. I don’t know why he has this hold on me, but I can assure you I'm done with him.” She mumbles in despair. Clarise's gaze softens, “Well. What can I do? We cannot undo what’s already done. Just make sure there won’t be a next time.” She said, then wrapped her in a tight embrace. MEANWHILE, Ashton’s gaze was fixed on the road when he suddenly heard a light thud. He quickly looked at the item that fell on the floor and saw it was Denise’s phone. He glances back at the road and, not seeing any cars nearby, he takes the phone and blindly hands it to Denise. "Hey, you dropped your phone." He mumbled softly.Not getting any response from her. He parked the car at the roadside and then turned on the lights in the car. He saw how pale she was. He held her face with trembling hands, “Are you okay?” He asked worriedly. Soon she began hyperventilating and lost consciousness. "De
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 23 - She's a Mistake
DENISE stood watch as Xander almost beat Ashton to a pulp while Toby was doing his best to mediate the situation.“Xander, stop. Ashton is our friend. He has already learned his lesson.” Toby yelled out as he tightly held Xander's arms.Meanwhile, Ashton was still stunned as he stared at Denise, who was unbothered by what she had just done to him. She didn’t even help Toby to pacify Xander’s anger or help him stand up as he was pinned on the floor. Ashton felt that everything moved slowly that day. Toby looked at Ashton’s bloodied face and he pitied his friend. Ashton could fight back, but due to height and physical differences, Xander would definitely win and it would also anger Xander more. Between the three of them, Xander is the tallest and has the best physical attributes. He is 6’3 and has a well-maintained body, while he and Ashton are around 5’11 and only do casual exercises. Toby was already breathless and, for the first time, got tired of settling the disagreement and fina

In the blink of an eye… Months had passed and Ashton still hadn’t proposed. He started to become busy with his company, despite that not even once did the ring leave his pocket.During that time a lot of things happened. Charles had successfully dominated the shipping business and ended Hannah’s contract. She’s free to work for any company she likes. Toby continued to visit Xander and was happy to know that he was starting to respond to psychotherapy.Lani is still in maximum prison, and she is treated like a slave by everyone. She never thought in a million years she would be pushed around like trash by women half her age. That she needed to massage someone's callus feet just to have protection from other inmates.Aside from the hellish treatments, no one had visited her ever since she moved there. Ron even stopped sending her letters. She never felt alone and helpless in her life.Meanwhile, for Clarise and Zane, the day they had been waiting to arrive. It's a love story more than a
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 161 - No manual for it
In Hannah’s ward. It was already 8 pm when Ashton returned. When he got to Hannah’s room, only Heidi was in there. “You’re back,” Hannah uttered in glee. She could sense that he was a bit calmer than before.“Have you eaten?” Heidi asked Ashton. He shook his head.“I’m buying us some food. Hannah wants some pasta. How about you? Anything particular you want?” Heidi asks. “Let me buy the food for us,” he suggested.Heidi shook his head, “You stay here. You should be resting not roaming around.” She insisted. “You kids stay here.” She added as she headed outside.He smiled and swiftly walked to Hannah to hold her hand. “I asked Clarise to buy me a hair clipper.” She blurted out while showing them to him.He narrowed his gaze, “Why?”“To cut my hair. So it will grow back the same length as my bald spot, and it would be all-natural. My hair grows back fast and it would be presentable enough at the time of Clarise and Zane's wedding. Would you help me cut my hair?” She asked as she ha

At Texas Southwestern Medical Center...“Ashton, where are you going?” Cyrene asked as she watched how his son got up from the bed and headed outside.“I want to see her. Where is she?” He replied in worry.She sighs, “She’s in the next room. Her friends are in there, and she’s still asleep. So calm yourself down. You just had 14 stitches on your chest and leg,” she explains.He shook his head, “I’m fine—”.Before he could finish his sentence, beeping sounds from the other room roared in the air, followed by shouting and cries.“Nurse!” “Nurse!” He heard Clarise and Zane’s voices in the hallway.He stood up immediately and checked what was happening.“Ashton!” Cyrene yelled, but all she could do was follow him.He entered the room next door and there she was being coaxed by Clarise and Zane to calm down.She’s having nightmares. Keeps seeing that she'll wake up in captivity and seeing a hospital ward is not helping her condition. She felt like she was still trapped in the cabin.She
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 159 - Dallas Farmhouse
After lunch, Zane and Clarise drove to one of their vendors.Zane couldn’t stop staring at his soon-to-be wife. She tried her best to smile, but she could not hide the uneasiness in her movements.He could no longer take it and finally voiced out his concerns. He closed the binder he was holding, "Do you want to postpone the wedding and wait for Hannah to return?" He asked in a soft voice.She shook her head, "She won't like that. She would hate to know that we delayed our wedding because of her. Aside from that, we have already paid for our vendors," she explained.He sighs, “I don’t want to say this... You know that... I love Hannah. She’s like a sister to me but… What kind of friend leaves her friends like that? She knew we were getting married, and she just left.” Her hands trembled. He felt fear in her. She inched close to him and glanced around the room, “The type that’s been abducted.” She said in a low voice.“Abducted?” He repeats in a louder tone.She covered his mouth imm
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 158 - You’ll be home soon
~Toby and I tried to call you, but you didn’t answer.~Ashton’s voice woke up Hannah from her slumber.“Ashton?” She called out. Her eyes expressed glee to hear his voice. She glanced around only to realize she was still trapped inside the room. ~You know I need to go back to dating~~You know I need to go back to dating~His recorded voice kept on repeating for a few more hours. Shortly, Xander arrived with a smug look on his face. “You’ve heard the recording. Ashton is back to his old ways. Drinking and partying with a random woman in the bar, like the filthy animal that he is. He'll sleep with anyone available.” He says mockingly.“Do you still think he is better than me?” He added as he caressed her face.She evaded his touch by hiding under the blanket. She remained silent. There’s a part of her happy that he is moving on with his life, but she can’t ignore the fact that it hurts so badly. It's like confirmation that she has already lost her chance to be happy.“How long am I i
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 157 - Playing God
Hannah woke up with the smell of savory food in the air.She could feel her stomach gurgling. “Are you hungry?” Xander asks her. She nods. He smiled eerily, “I made tomato soup and salad. Come get your food.” He suggested as he motioned at the table. She slowly rose from her bed, but before she could take her first step she noticed one of her feet was chained to the bed. There was confusion on her face. She slowly turned her head to him.“What games are you trying to play this time?” She asks with a trembling voice.He shrugs, “Say ‘Please’ and I'll move the table near you.” He uttered. “I will even throw on a piece of bread if you sound a little sweeter.”She doesn't want to do it, but she's hungry, thirsty, and weary. She lowered her head to hide how annoyed and angry she was, “I want to eat, please.” She uttered in a low sweet voice.He moved the table near her and then patted her head, “See, that’s not hard, is it? I knew you just needed to be retrained to be obedient. If you
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 156 - Lies Unfold
Ashton’s hands are sweating. Now that his and Clarise’s suspicions were proven correct, he needed to act fast to look for Hannah. Despite that, everything must remain in secrecy as one wrong move might alert Xander, and he might move her somewhere farther away. As he stopped his car at the intersection traffic light, he began to utilize Galvin and his team to help him search for her. He dialed Galvin and he was soon answered. “Galvin, how are we on the list of Xander's properties?” “Check your email. I just sent it to you.” He replied.“Good. I want you to do something for me. Station a person in the Miller Mansion and document any movements.” Ashton demanded.“Sure, anything else?” Galvin uttered. Ashton sighs. Something is bothering him. First is the letter, then Xander is staying in the Miller Mansion, while Hannah is in Asia.It doesn’t add up and it doesn’t make any sense. A dozen questions are inside his mind. “Did Xander threaten her to write the letter, and she chose to l

“Come on, eat your pancakes,” Xander suggested as he pushed the paper plate at her.She began stabbing her food with the plastic pork in exasperation. “What did I ever do to you for you to treat me like this? You already know the truth that I’ve saved your life and this is the thanks I get. Imprisonment in this place…” She yelled at him. He raised his arm, and she flinched in fear and shielded her head with her hand. He lowered his arm and sighed deeply. “Why won’t you just be obedient? Like before?”She laughs mockingly, “And where will it take me? Years of misery? Whatever I do, you end up hurting me.” She remarks.“You don’t understand I’m just protecting you from making more mistakes in your life.” He explains.“How about you protect me against yourself? Let me go and never show yourself ever again,” she suggested.He shook his head, “I can’t. I won’t.” He held her shoulders firmly, “You’re the only one that genuinely cares for me, and you’re the only one I have.”“I used to car
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 154 - In a Nightmare
Ashton effortlessly carried the boxes of Hannah’s files inside his room. Searching for anything that might point to where she is.But all he could find were the documents about her research into Denise, Lani, Ron, Donnie, and Hector Reese and the crimes they committed.On how she will convince Donnie to bring down Hector and Denise. While reading through the mountain of paperwork she had, he felt so proud of the effort she put through.“You are so amazing,” he mumbled.He then remembered Clarise’s words.~Someone might have threatened her.~“Xander,” he thought to himself.Soon he decided to message the investigator to get him a list of all of Xander’s property as he might have her held captive. “If he took her, could she be in the Miller Mansion?” He asked himself.Soon Toby’s statement lingered in his head.~He locked himself inside the mansion.~He starts pacing back and forth as he questions everything that has happened.“But… If that’s the case, how did he get her?
