"Mr. Scott, I've made up my mind. I'm going to Euressa to pursue my career."On the other end of the phone, Jefferson Scott was all smiles. "You should've done this sooner. With your talent, if you'd come earlier, you'd definitely be an internationally renowned photographer by now."Hendrix Gorman smiled politely. "Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Scott.""When are you planning to come?"Hendrix thought for a moment before responding, "Probably in about two weeks. I still have some things to wrap up here.""Alright. You know, Nicholas passed away early. Sabrina has been looking after you for all these years. She's been incredible to you. Now that you're planning to settle abroad, you should have a proper talk with her."After hanging up, Hendrix glanced over at the woman who was trying on her wedding dress in the distance and the man standing beside her with a smile. He couldn't help but give a bitter smile.Sabrina Reed had indeed taken great care of him. She had been attentiv...

Chapter 2
Hendrix didn't get home until the early hours of the morning.Making the decision to leave had been instantaneous, but the bond he'd had with Sabrina for over 20 years wasn't something that could just vanish. He wasn't that strong to simply let go.To avoid any regrets, he figured it was best to stay away from Sabrina for the next couple of weeks.When he got back to Gorman Manor, the house was pitch dark.Hendrix didn't bother turning on the lights. He dragged his tired body straight toward his bedroom.But then, a voice called out to him from the living room, "Hendrix."He turned around and saw someone sitting on the couch."Yes, Mr. Shepard?"Rowan was wearing a black silk robe. It was a robe Hendrix knew too well.Sabrina had one just like it, but in red. It was obviously a matching set.Rowan gave a slight smile. "Bri got this robe for me. Do you think it looks good?"As he sat up straight, the red marks on his body gradually became visible. Against the black silk, they

Chapter 3
As Hendrix exited the office, he saw Sabrina leaning against her black Cullinan, lost in thought.He walked closer and finally saw what Nathan had meant by "surprise". The car was filled with fresh, red roses.The front passenger seat was the only place not covered in roses. Both the back seat and the trunk were packed to the brim with them.Behind him, Hendrix could hear the laughter of a few female colleagues, whom he usually got along with. Hiding behind the company sign at the entrance, they were secretly peeking over and giggling.Sabrina had always brought him small surprises when she picked him up—figurines, game merch, or food he liked.The colleagues had seen it all before, but they still always teased him about it. "Every time Sabrina comes, the whole office gets a treat. We're all just lucky to be around Hendrix."Hendrix usually just laughed it off and divided up the treats Sabrina brought for everyone.Now, it seemed like everyone was just waiting to get their share

Chapter 4
Upon hearing Hendrix's question, Sabrina slammed her cup onto the table. "I let him in. Any problem?"Hendrix's voice rose. "Without asking me? How can you let him invade my room and mess with my things?""Hendrix, I bought everything you own. Since I bought them, Rowan has every right to touch them."Her words hit him like a cold slap.Rowan gently chided, "Bri, don't talk to Hendrix like that. You'll hurt his feelings."Then he turned to Hendrix and said, "I heard from the household staff that Bri's clothes and shoes used to be kept in your room. Apparently, she had so many that they took up half your closet, and you had no space for your own. So I thought I'd help and move her stuff to our room."Sabrina used to cling to Hendrix all the time. Growing up, he had never received a single love letter—Sabrina had intercepted every one of them.Later, she had gone as far as moving all her clothes into his bedroom, claiming it was so she could wear the dresses and heels Hendrix pick

Hendrix hung up the phone. He took a deep breath and began quietly cleaning up the mess on the floor. "Mr. Scott's visa expired. He's too old to be traveling back and forth, so he asked me to help sort it out."Sabrina looked at him suspiciously. "But isn't his daughter in the country? Why doesn't he have her handle it?"Hendrix snapped, "Why don't you call him and ask?""I'm not that free.""Then stop asking so many questions."Hendrix spent the entire night cleaning up his bedroom.The clothes and shoes Rowan had left in a mess weren't worth packing, so he piled them in the corner of the closet.He did manage to salvage a few rolls of negatives. But having been soaked in water, they were ruined beyond repair.Rowan sent him a message. "Today is just a warning."It stayed on the screen for two minutes before it was deleted.That way, Hendrix would see it, but there would be no proof left behind.But after what happened last time, Hendrix was prepared. As soon as he saw th

Carley was surprised as well. "Hendrix, I get that you want to help out, but we could just donate money. Why donate all your clothes? It's getting cold. What are you going to wear?"Hendrix looked at Sabrina and chuckled lightly. "You said you'd help Rowan compensate me, right? These clothes are old, and I don't need them anymore. I'll use the money to buy new ones. Is there a problem with that?"Sabrina stared at him for a moment before nodding. "Fine, how much do you need? I can transfer it now."Hendrix raised one finger."A million dollars? Okay," Sabrina agreed."No," Hendrix replied."Ten million?"Rowan immediately panicked. "How are a few clothes worth ten million dollars?"Hendrix gave him a cold look and then turned to Sabrina. "One dollar."The clothes were all gifts from Sabrina. Now that he was leaving, he didn't want to take her things or her money.Just like she said, he was an outsider.One dollar was a fair exchange. Over 20 years of feelings would be wiped

Chapter 7
The moment the plane touched down at Merona Airport, Hendrix felt a sense of relief wash over him.Jefferson had said he'd be coming with his wife, Jocelyn Christensen, to pick him up, but he could clearly see there was someone else with them."Hendrix! Over here!"Hendrix walked over with a smile and first gave Jocelyn a hug. "Mrs. Scott, you're still as young and beautiful as ever."Then he waved to Jefferson. "Mr. Scott, if you don't start taking better care of yourself, you won't be worthy of the young and beautiful Mrs. Scott."Jefferson laughed heartily. "You brat. I haven't seen you in years, and you start mocking me the moment we meet!""I'm not mocking you. I'm complimenting you! That big beard of yours screams seasoned photographer."Jefferson laughed and scolded him, "Hey! You've been spoiled by Sabrina, haven't you? Always so cheeky."At the mention of Sabrina, Jocelyn asked, "Did you come alone? Didn't Sabrina come with off?"Jefferson looked behind Hendrix. "Mayb

Hendrix's unexpected question left everyone momentarily stunned.Jocelyn covered her mouth to stifle a laugh and then gave Jefferson a knowing look. She nodded slightly as if to say, "There might be a chance!"Jefferson immediately caught on and smiled.Even Helena was caught off guard. She wasn't sure what Hendrix's question meant.Hendrix clarified, "The front passenger seat is kind of special. If you have a boyfriend, I could squeeze into the back with Mr. and Mrs. Scott."Helena waved her hand quickly. "I don't have a boyfriend, so just sit there."Only then did Hendrix finally get into the car.As the car started, Jocelyn said gently, "Hendrix, you don't have to act so distant. You and Helena aren't strangers, after all."Hendrix replied politely, "Even with people we know well, it's important to respect boundaries."This was a lesson Sabrina had drilled into him—a vivid and unforgettable one.Jocelyn smiled at Jefferson. "Look at Hendrix. He's so polite and well-mannere

Chapter 9
The sound of the phone hitting the floor echoed. Sabrina froze, as if her soul had been drained from her body.Fortunately, the phone was durable. It bounced off the ground, turning the speakerphone on.The voice of the officer, Luca Smith, came through the line. "We found a male body in a reservoir in the east suburb. Given the age and clothing, there's a high probability that it's Mr. Gorman."Rowan stood there, stunned.Hendrix was dead?Had he killed himself?Was he so deeply in love with Sabrina that he had taken his life on her wedding day?But in the next instant, Rowan's thoughts shifted to something else.Sabrina's feelings for Hendrix ran so deep that if he were to die because of her, she would undoubtedly blame Rowan.Meanwhile, Hendrix would always be her first love, a love that no one could surpass or replace. No one could ever compete with the memory of a first love who had passed away.But so what?If Hendrix was gone, Sabrina would be Rowan's alone. No one wo

Chapter 10
Sabrina drove home at breakneck speed. As she reached the entrance of her neighborhood, she ran into the delivery person, but he didn't have any packages with him."Where's my package?" Sabrina grabbed the delivery person by the arm. "You said there was a package from Hendrix for me."The delivery person was startled. "Are you Ms. Reed? Your husband already signed for it. I just delivered it inside.""I don't have a husband!""What? But the man I just spoke to said he was your husband..."Sabrina rushed straight into the manor. "Rowan Shepard! Where are you?"At that moment, Rowan, who was in the bathroom, was startled.He threw the item in his hand into the toilet and frantically pressed the flush button. But the next second, the bathroom door was kicked open by Sabrina.She snatched the box from his hands and began frantically flipping through it.It was filled with photos—images of her from childhood to her transformation into a mature and captivating woman.There were pho
