Soon, a car arrived.

Tobin opened the door for Bryce to get in.

His bodyguard put the suitcase in the trunk.

Half an hour later, they arrived at Hunter's house.

Bryce smoothed out the wrinkles on his pants and brushed his hair back. He stepped out of the car after deeming himself presentable.

Tobin went up to the door and pressed on the doorbell.

Bryce cleared his throat, thinking of what he'd say to Holly when they met. He reminded himself that he had to keep his cool.

The maid opened the door.

Hunter welcomed him personally. With a warm smile, he asked, "What brings you here, Bryce? You should have told me you were coming so I could've gone to meet you."

Bryce smiled slightly. "I'm here for a project. I happened to be nearby, so I'd like to just say hi to Holly before I leave."

"Alright." Hunter brought him in, saying, "I've never seen a kid as hard-working as Holly. She forgets to even eat or sleep. It's not good for her health."

Bryce's heart ached when he heard that, bu

    Bryce frowned a little and scoffed.Penelope chuckled. She teased, "Are you always this quiet, Mr. Gabelman?""Depends on the person. I talk a lot with Holly."The smile on Penelope's face froze. "I see."A gentle breeze blew past them.Bryce suddenly smelled something fragrant.It was Holly's unique scent.He looked at someone from afar. Holly was walking toward them.Bryce strode toward her. "Holly," he said in a low voice.There was unmistakable joy in his voice.Holly said nothing. She stopped in her tracks and looked at Penelope. There was an odd look on her face.She wasn't expecting them both to turn up at Hunter's house at the same time.They were talking and laughing together.She remembered Penelope swearing to win over Bryce.A fire burned in her chest.Penelope answered, "We were on the same flight together, and we're just here to see Mr. Fox. I hope you don't mind, Ms. Sinclair."She'd been vague with her words on purpose so that Holly would misundersta

    Bryce's heart felt like it was floating. Something like a rose was blooming in his chest.He was deeply moved.He was touched to hear such words coming from Holly's lips.It turned out that she had married him for him, not his family or his riches.He held her tightly against his chest, wrapping his arms around her frail shoulders.He was holding her so tightly that Holly couldn't breathe. Their embrace was so tight that they could feel each other's heartbeat through their clothes.It was a warm feeling.A solid minute later, Bryce said, "Three years ago, I was a cripple. I couldn't even take care of myself. What was it that attracted you?"Holly couldn't bear to hear him degrade himself.She squirmed out of his arms and held his face, gazing deeply into his eyes.His eyes gleamed darkly, like the stars in the sky. The gloominess from three years ago had completely disappeared.But she would never forget the way he had looked.His handsome face had looked so frail.She s

    Penelope would still ask away, although she knew Holly wouldn't mind. It was really manipulative.Holly smiled lightly and nodded, saying nothing.Hunter had a chef who specialized in Jardington cuisine. Dinner was hearty, with a total of eight courses.Hunter said, "Holly, you should eat more. You've been hard at work restoring the paintings. You've grown thin."Holly smiled. "Thank you, Mr. Fox."Bryce served her a bowl of oxtail soup. "Here. Have some soup."Penelope immediately followed suit, bringing a plate of roasted quail to Holly. "Have some quail, Holly. It's roasted to perfection."Holly smiled. "I'm afraid I'm not a fan of roasted quail."Penelope's smile froze. "Well, what do you…"Holly said calmly, "I can get my own food. Thank you very much."Penelope looked a little embarrassed.Her phone vibrated. Someone had messaged her.She took out her phone and glanced at it. Then, she smiled at Hunter and said, "My father sends you his regards, Mr. Fox. He personally

    Penelope could've caught the phone, but she just let it drop to the ground.The screen cracked at once.Penelope bent down to pick it up, feeling a little humiliated.It wasn't because of the phone screen. It was because of Holly's words.Penelope wanted to throw a tantrum, but she resisted the urge to.She had worked for several years now. She was able to control her emotions since she had taken on a managing role.Mockery flashed through her eyes. She said breezily, "You're divorced, Ms. Sinclair. As long as you've not remarried yet, Bryce is not yours. Even if you sleep together, you're nothing more than a sex partner."Holly smiled.It felt much better to have Penelope reveal her true colors.At least now Holly could deal with it openly. It was better than keeping it all inside.Holly said nonchalantly, "Divorce doesn't mean we don't love each other. As long as there's love, he is mine. "On the other hand, you have to hide your feelings for him. I just don't understand

    However, Penelope couldn't vent it out. The emotion stayed in her chest, suffocating her."Figure it out yourself since you're so smart. There's no point in making yourself unhappy." With that, Holly turned and left.Suddenly, a man's voice said, "Holly, what are you guys doing?"Before Holly could speak, Penelope smiled and said, "Ms. Sinclair and I are talking. She's a great conversationalist. We're having a good time."Holly smirked. Penelope was even more two-faced than she thought.Bryce went up to them and caressed Holly's head, gazing at her. He was silently asking if she was okay.Holly sensed it and said, "I'm fine. It's all thanks to the sharp tongue that my mom gave me."Penelope's expression shifted. She smiled and said, "Holly's pretty good with her words."Holly snaked her arm around Bryce's waist and smiled. "You can keep looking at the moon, Ms. Zeller. My man and I are going to rest."Holly had emphasized the words "my man and I". Her intention to assert d

    After breakfast the next morning, Bryce went to the research company to talk about the project.He was dressed formally because it was an important project.He wore a neat gray suit that accentuated his figure and slim legs. His hair was slicked back perfectly.He already had a perfect silhouette. Now, with the suit, he looked extremely handsome, like the men on the cover pages of business magazines.Holly put his tie on for him.After that, she stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the lips. Her eyes shone. "My man is really hot today."Bryce pinched her soft cheek and said, "And I have a beautiful girl."Holly laughed. She straightened his collar. "Go. I hope it turns out well.""Wait for me here."After saying goodbye to Hunter, Bryce left with Tobin and his bodyguard.Not long after, Penelope left with her bodyguard, too.Holly went on with her restorations.Bryce came home in the afternoon.The meeting had gone successfully. He was in high spirits. He said, "Dress yoursel

    Rich people were all a little eccentric.Holly was used to it.The living room was as wide as a basketball court.There were already a lot of guests inside. They seemed to be all from different countries.Most of them were young. They had glasses of wine in their hands. It was a lively atmosphere.Bryce and Holly stepped in, receiving attention from the crowd at once.They simply looked too beautiful to be real. They were like angels, with their little halos over their heads.The room fell silent at once.After a momentary silence, a man said warmly, "Look who's here! It's Bryce!"Johnny was in a black suit. He jogged up to them and wrapped Bryce in a giant hug.Bryce patted him on the back and handed him his birthday gift.Johnny took it and thanked him. Then, he turned to Holly, exclaiming, "I know you! You're the mysterious painter girl! I've seen you on TV before!"Holly figured he was probably talking about "The Crane" on Treasure Talkers."You painted that in such a

    However, Abelin seemed oblivious to Heidi's meaningful glance. He showed no reaction at all, making Heidi anxious to no end.Once Bryce and Holly left with the others, Heidi immediately grabbed Abelin by the sleeves and pulled him into an empty room by the side.As soon as the door was closed, she gestured urgently and said exasperatedly, "My dear brother, if you don't act as soon as possible, Holly will remarry her ex-husband soon!"Abelin was leaning against the wall with a hand stuffed into his pocket. He leisurely said, "Whether they're divorced or remarried has nothing to do with me."Heidi asked, "But you love Holly! Don't you want to have her?"Abelin fell silent. He then forced a smile and calmly replied, "I don't need to have someone to love them. What matters most is her happiness."Heidi said, "But she should've been yours to begin with!

    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
