The documents fell to the ground loudly.

Wendy Myers, the secretary, knocked on the door and entered with a cup of coffee.

They bumped right into each other, and she was shocked.

After placing the coffee on the table hurriedly, she bent down to pick up the documents.

After picking them up and placing them on the table, she carefully observed Bryce's mood.

Although he looked calm, his gaze was cold.

It was like the rushing current under a calm sea, and a tidal wave could happen at any moment.

Wendy was so scared she couldn't breathe. She carefully said, "Mr. Gabelman, here's your coffee."

Bryce glanced at the coffee with his frosty gaze and didn't say a word.

Wendy held her breath and carefully walked out.

She was afraid of angering him again if she walked too loudly.

After a few steps out of the office, Wendy heard Bryce pulling out his phone. He made a call and asked, "How do you feel on your first day of class?"

His tone was gentle like a breeze.

Wendy was stunned when s

    Holly arrived at Priscilla's house after half an hour.Before she even got close to the door, she could hear loud noises coming from inside the house. It sounded like there was a fight, and things were being thrown.There was also a man scolding Priscilla.Afraid that Priscilla was being bullied, Holly anxiously grabbed her keys and opened the door.After entering the house, she saw that the living room was in a mess.Broken glasses were everywhere.There were also pillows, remotes, and fruits thrown all over the ground.The chairs were crooked, and the couch and coffee table were out of place.Priscilla's hair and shirt were messy.An unfamiliar man had his hands on his hips as he said, "Give me five million dollars, or you'll be sorry!"Priscilla angrily yelled with her reddened eyes, "Give it up! I won't give you a dime!"Since the two were in a heated fight, they didn't even realize someone had entered the house.Holly coldly looked at the man and asked with her voice r

    Priscilla was in the passenger seat, and she said in disdain, "He's no Holls' dad! He's a monster!"Feeling puzzled, Holly asked, "Mom, why is he asking for five million dollars from you?"Priscilla's gaze flickered as she answered, "His business failed, and he's in a lot of debt. I guess he's desperate."Holly bit her lip slightly and didn't say anything.She kept quiet as she blocked her bleeding nose with some tissues.Suddenly, Priscilla remembered something and reminded, "Holls, if he goes asking for money from you, you can't give him anything. No matter what excuses he gives, don't give a single dime. That monster is a liar. Don't believe anything he says. Got it?"Holly nodded.When she asked Priscilla about Lucas previously, the latter would always avoid the question.If Holly insisted on asking again, Priscilla would get angry.Since it was rare for them to talk about it, Holly couldn't help but ask, "Mom, why did you get a divorce back then?"When Priscilla heard th

    Everyone's scornful gazes were like arrows shooting at Quirina.Quirina was a wealthy lady and was used to living luxuriously.Everyone would flatter her wherever she went, and she had never experienced hostility like that before.Her face fell, and everyone could tell.Quirina turned to her caretaker behind her and said harshly, "What are you standing around for?

    After their meal, Bryce asked, "Have you taken your medicine?"Holly nodded obediently. "Yes, I have.""What about the supplements?"Holly lightly smacked herself on her head and chuckled. "I forgot."She had never heard of anyone taking supplements after having a nosebleed before.Bryce gently flicked her forehead. "You silly goose. Where did you leave it? I'll grab it for you."Holly rubbed her forehead and smiled. "It's in my bag. I left them on the shoe rack."Bryce got up and went to the shoe rack.When he opened the bag to take the supplement, he saw the silver dagger inside.The dagger was exquisitely designed.It looked unlike any other daggers.There was a flower carved on it, along with some letters.Bryce took it out and unsheathed it. The sharp silver blade was revealed, and it shone brightly under the light.He soon realized it wasn't an ordinary dagger.It was one of the best combat knives in the world.It could do serious damage. The knife was capable of s

    After resting for a day, Holly returned to Trevor's Pavilion.In the morning, Trevor taught her the basics, like how to clean antique vases.While cleaning, they had to use a special chemical. She had to learn how to mix the chemicals.Although Holly wasn't good at relationships, she had a talent when it came to antiques. She picked it up from Trevor easily.Life was fair.No one was perfect.…Holly was busy the whole morning.Time passed by quickly.After lunch, Trevor wanted to bring Holly to the antique shop next door for a visit.Holly didn't dare to disobey him.So, they went together.After they entered the shop, Trevor said loudly, "Damie, get down here! I want to introduce my mentee to you!"Anyone could hear that clear voice from any floor.Damian Cott heard it as well and walked out from the appraisal room upstairs. Holding onto the railings, he slowly came downstairs.Holly looked at Damian. He looked to be at least 80 years old, which was around Trevor's age

    There was disdain in his tone.Trevor was provoked by Damian's attitude.He slammed hard on the table. "I don't care! Holly is my mentee now, and I'm proud to have such an impressive mentee!"Holly couldn't help laughing.She didn't expect Trevor's personality to be like that.He was an extroverted and stubborn old man.He was different compared to her grandfather, who was strict and liked to lay lowHolly took a bottle from the third staff.Before she even took a closer look, she pointed at the drawing on it and said, "It was painted with modern-day materials."Then, she flipped it around and looked at the bottom."The letters on the bottom are too tidy.

    Sitting by Bryce's bed, Holly softly held his slender fingers as if such a move would keep him safe.She must have been exhausted or emotionally spent, as she soon fell asleep by the bed. She then suffered a nightmare, in which Bryce stood in front of her, covered in blood from head to toe. Forcing a smile, he said to her, "Holly, I can't stay by your side anymore. You need to take care of yourself and be strong."After that, he turned into wisps of smoke and vanished right in front of her eyes. She frantically reached out to hold him, but she was clawing at the air.She waved her hands madly to take hold of him and run after him. Her voice was hoarse from all the yelling. "Bryce! Bryce Gabelman!"Her shouting was futile. Jolting awake, she gasped for air. Her forehead was drenched in sweat, and her eyes were wet from crying.She noticed that she was lying in the caregiver's bed. Someone—perhaps Bryce—had carried her to the bed.Bryce managed to get out of bed and lay by her

    "You're injured. Don't stay on the floor—it's cold. Get up now!" Holly cautiously pulled Bryce up from the ground.He was speechless at her response. Any other woman would have happily accepted the ring and put it on.Perhaps, the woman he loved was different from the others.Going on one knee, Bryce refused to get up. He tenderly stared at Holly. "I'll get up after you agree to remarry me.""Get up now, and I'll agree to it."Defeated, he stood up, held her hand, and tried to put the ring on her finger when he was overwhelmed by a wave of dizziness. He lost his balance and collapsed forward onto her.Holly quickly held him and asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"Bryce's lips parted. He wanted to reassure her that he was fine, but he couldn't utter a word. Soon after, his fingers that grasped the ring went numb. The large diamond ring dropped to the ground, spinning and clattering until it came to a stop.Panicking, Holly patted his cheek. "What's going on?"However, Bryce didn't

    Looking at the man in Holly's embrace, Abelin turned his attention back to his phone. He asked inquisitively, "Who are you?"The person on the other end of the line was filled with anger. "I'm Bryce. I called her phone, but it was switched off."Abelin replied honestly, "She lost her phone.""Where is she right now?" Bryce questioned indifferently.After Abelin told him the villa's address, Bryce hung up.Abelin once again glanced at his phone before looking toward the dazed-looking Holly. "Holly, I think this man might not be Bryce."Holly shook her head. "You don't need to comfort me.""I just got a call from Bryce. He's on his way here."Holly thought he was lying and refused to believe him. When Abelin wanted to pull her away from the corpse, Holly got triggered and pushed him away. "Don't touch him! He'll be in pain!"Seeing Holly in such a dazed and abnormal state, Abelin felt a sense of pity for her.A tall figure emerged from the door about 45 minutes later. He was we

    Abelin wanted to follow through with the protocol, but Holly refused.Realizing they weren't locals, the police decided to let them be. Thus, Abelin sent Holly and the corpse back to a villa their family seldom stayed in.Upon arriving at the villa, Holly did nothing but hold onto the bloodied man dazedly. Her heart felt heavy and chaotic. She was filled with regret and self-blame.Did she regret breaking up with him? The answer was no. Instead, she regretted not being firm enough with her decision. If she had been more resolute and didn't give him any hope of reconciling, he wouldn't have flown to Calria to find her. Correspondingly, he wouldn't have gotten into a car accident and died.Death was such a dreadful word. Bryce was gone, forever disappearing from this world. Holly would never hear his voice or see his smile and face. It was all gone.She would never see him again. She would rather he had lived, no matter who he ended up with in the future. She just wanted him to

    The driver pressed the pedal, made a U-turn, and accelerated. When Holly arrived at the address Tobin sent, she saw two deformed cars at the crash scene. However, she didn't find anyone there.Holly's heart skipped a beat. She could only call Tobin repeatedly. However, the call didn't go through.Bryce and the others didn't own a car, only renting one after they got off the plane. Thus, Holly didn't know which car belonged to them.The driver continued driving a bit further until they came upon a collision between a car and a truck. The car's front end was completely obliterated. The driver was cut in half at the waist, and the person in the back seat was so badly mangled that his face was unrecognizable.A loud roar echoed in Holly's mind as it went blank. Her gaze fell on the man's blood-soaked suit. This was the deep-colored suit that Bryce always wore. The man had long legs. The wrist that was hanging out of the car wore a Patek Philippe Celestial watch.Holly remembered the

    The moment Bryce reached Calria and got off the plane, he received a call from an unknown number. He took the call with furrowed eyebrows. "Hello. Who are you?"Zenia fumed. "I'm Zenia. Holly and Abelin's wedding is today. Your woman snatched away the man I loved!" She hung up the call after that.Bryce didn't believe her. He tapped into his messages, and several wedding photos came into view. Although the images were not high resolution, one could at least make out the newlywed's features.The groom wearing a suit had striking facial features, and Bryce recognized him as Abelin. Meanwhile, the woman was dressed in a fitted floor-length gown and wore a white veil. Under the thin veil, Bryce could make out her defined features. The woman was none other than Holly.Bryce felt like he had been struck by lightning. His mind went blank, and the hand holding the phone turned cold.He could feel his heart sinking and his blood going cold. Instantly, he felt he got toyed and betrayed

    Michelle was gravely ill, with her vision and hearing failing. Thus, they should be able to deceive her.While Abelin let out a sigh of relief, Merope threw daggers at him. She couldn't believe he was stupid enough to let go of such a good opportunity. She wondered why someone as smart as her would have such a dumb son.As it was almost time for the wedding ceremony, Merope wheeled the sickly Michelle out. Michelle's complexion seemed better than a few days back, perhaps due to the joyful event or the effects of terminal lucidity. Her dull eyes were shining when she saw Abelin and the fake bride on the red carpet.Michelle pursed her lips and asked Merope, "Is he really getting married to Holly?"Merope replied unwillingly, "Yes.""Bring me over to have a look," Michelle ordered. When Merope wheeled her over to the fake bride, Michelle took her reading glasses from her pocket with trembling hands.Abelin held his breath as Michelle eyed the fake bride up and down. He was fear

    Merope pleaded earnestly, "Abel, your grandmother is on her last breath. Please try to fulfill her last wish for her."Abelin didn't seem to reject this plan as much as before. "Wedding arrangements are already in place, and I've notified a couple of cousins. I'll try to make the entire wedding as genuine as possible."Merope was overjoyed. "Why did you suddenly change your mind? Is Holly the bride?""No. I found a woman who looks quite similar to her. Grandma is old and has blurry eyesight. I doubt she'll recognize her."Merope rebuked, "Your grandma isn't blind!""Well, that's all." Abelin then hung up the call.…Three days later, many relatives gathered at the Gabelman residence. The brightly decorated courtyard was filled with people. Abelin hired a professional wedding team in advance, making sure the officiant, red carpet, circular arch, fresh flowers, and bridal bouquet were all in place. A professional violin team was also playing the wedding march.Although it was a

    Abelin called Priscilla's bodyguards, and they arrived at the Calria police station together.The bodies were stored in the morgue. Since they weren't Calrians, the police couldn't find any information on them or confirm their identities.However, they were sure that the two bodies had something to do with Priscilla because one of the bodyguards left a long scratch mark on one of the culprit's arms. At that moment, the mark was rotten due to being submerged in the water. The skin was peeling, and it was a horrifying sight.Clearly, the person behind the culprits was worried they might get caught and expose their employer's identity. So, someone was sent to silence them right away. It was easy for someone like them to kill a person.After giving a statement, the police told Abelin that they were going to do an autopsy on the bodies. Once they had news, they would call him again.After coming out of the police station, Abelin got into his car and called Bryce. "The two guys who hu
