This better be important.” She yelled angrily while fixing her robe.His head is lowered in dismay, “If it weren't for you, Bridget would have been happy with her mother. Now I can't watch her grow up.” He uttered in bitterness. She huffed, “Don't be overdramatic. You could have more kids with Denise.” She reasoned.He slammed his fist on the door. "Shut the fuck up! You are a meddling witch."Her eyes widened in disbelief, “What's this attitude? Have you forgotten I’m your mother?” She yelled angrily.“I haven't and that's the only thing keeping you safe right now," he warns.He stared at her intently. His eyes expressed deep disappointment, "The things that you did, and you still act like you did nothing wrong. You are a mother and yet you restricted Hannah from seeing our daughter for the last time."She smirked, "I knew i
Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 55 - Did He See Us Ki...?
Hannah was lying on her bed. Her body is drained, but sleep still eludes her. No matter how much she works herself to exhaustion, the longing and the endless despair of losing Bridget still drowns her in pain.Nights are as sleepless as always. The only thing she’s thankful for now is that she’s alone and can cry herself to sleep. She doesn’t want to burden her friends anymore as they’ve done enough to help her. This is also why she forbade Clarise from moving in with her and needed to come up with a lie that the Miller family might target them. It’s a lie she made up. She knew the Miller family would no longer be interested in her, as everything that connected her to Xander was gone.That’s also the reason why it is a big surprise to her to see Xander in her driveway, acting as if he's a concerned husband. —Well, he is more than 3 years late for that. Now that everything has been concluded, his concern is no longer appreciated and is considered an intrusion. The only thing Hannah

ASHTON held Hannah’s wrist to stop her from leaving. He wanted to buy her dinner as a “Thank You” for helping him with Linnea. But to his surprise, he was greeted by Xander’s cold blue eyes. He soon slowly let go of her hand. “What the fuck is going on here?” Xander stared at them with a darkened gaze, “Don’t make me repeat myself!” He exclaimed while looking at Hannah and Ashton back and forth.With a trembling hand, Hannah spoke, “Nothing.” She mumbled.Xander scoffed with a doubtful glance.Ashton sighed and was about to speak, but Hannah spoke again.“I can’t sleep and want to drink. Why are you so invested in my life, Mr. Miller?” She stated while crossing her arms. He frowns, “Mr. Miller!?” he repeated under his breath.He smirked, “What are you even wearing?” He judged as he looked at her from head to foot.Hannah didn’t like how he stared at her and began covering her chest with her hand.“What are you even trying to prove by wearing such clothes? You look like a cheap prost

This is to search and locate the redheaded girl—Xander Miller’s real savior.Hector soon arrived at the run-down office at the end of the numerous cabins that had seen better days. He sneered at the sight, “This place should be closed for renovation or maybe for good.” He uttered.Shortly after, he knocked at the admin office and a female staff member greeted him. “Hi, good day sir. How can I help you today?” She asks while smiling. A type of gesture that she had uttered many times before. He smiled back, sighed, and tried his best not to cause an unwanted reaction to the stench in the air.

Goodbye My Love CHAPTER 58 - Trending Again
IN ARDMORE, OKLAHOMA…Clarise was scrolling down her social media when she came across the trending page. Denise was going to be the lead star in a TV series, and it was rumored that her boyfriend, Xander Miller, invested money in the series. “How shameless?” She muttered to herself. Previously, she would show this news to Hannah, but since she’s not in the best mood due to recent events, she can only sulk on her own and focus on many important things.During the custody battle, they sold some of the Genesis Media shares to fund their legal team and the company also suffered a huge loss when the opening of the Texas branch was postponed.

HANNAH stood still on her balcony while looking at Xander’s gifts and the trending images on her phone. Soon an idea entered her mind.“This is the right time.” She mumbled under her breath, then dialed Clarise’s number.Clarise was crying her eyes out as Hannah decided to move somewhere to start a new life. “Why a short notice?” She asks.Hannah held her shoulder, “It is the best time to do it. Xander is preoccupied with Denise. I want to take advantage of it.” She explains.“If that’s your plan, why did you invite us to your home? It might alarm Xander.” Clarise asks in confusion.Hannah’s eyes welled up, “It might, but I want to bid farewell to all of you properly. I didn’t have the chance to say goodbye to Bridget. I don’t want to feel the same despair when leaving you.” She stated. Clarise touched her cheeks and wiped the tears from her eyes. ”You don't make sense. Oh! You silly goose,” she uttered, then hugged her. As a final goodbye, Hannah invited her friends and personally

She purchased a ticket for every single possible flight, but never boarded any plane,” he explains.Xander gasped, “Why would she do that? Is it because she didn’t like the car?” He inquired concernedly.Yuri's eyes enlarged in disbelief.

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.

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

~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

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?
