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! If you hadn't joined the special task force and signed a confidentiality contract that prohibits you from returning to the country in

    "Thanks." Abelin took over the tissues and slowly lifted his head. He then started to wipe his face while looking at his reflection in the mirror.Bryce eyed his reflection in the mirror and lowered his head to wash his hands. Suddenly, he realized something and looked up at Abelin's reflection.His gaze was fixed on Abelin's eyes, hardening as he continued to stare at them.They were about the same height, and their eyes were almost on the same level in the mirror. It wasn't until tonight that Bryce realized his eyes were almost identical to Abelin's.They both had large, dark eyes with deep double eyelids, and their eyelashes were long and thick. Their angular eyebrows were similar to each other's—even the shape of their eyes and plump lower eyelids were identical.Apart from their eyes and brows, everything else looked completely different.Holly's voice immediately rang in Bryce's brain, "I saw your eyes the first time we met, and my heart ached for you. I really wanted to ca

    Bryce forcefully slammed the car door shut, rattling it for a good while. It would've fallen off if it wasn't for its sturdy build.Abelin's face fell slightly, and Holly hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Gabelman. He's had too much to drink."He replied, "It's fine."Holly noticed Abelin was slightly drunk as well. Slightly worried, she asked, "How are you getting back later?"Abelin replied, "Heidi is here. Don't worry."Holly said, "Alright. We'll head back for now.""Go back safely," Abelin said.His gaze, tinged with a hint of drunkenness, was unexpectedly gentle. He was too intoxicated to rein in his emotions, and his stare was more affectionate than ever.Holly didn't give it much thought, thinking he only looked that way after drinking. She then turned around and walked over to the other side of the car.Upon looking at her retreating back, Abelin suddenly shouted out, "Wait!"Surprised, Holly turned around and looked at him. "Is there anything else you need, Mr.

    Hunter was already asleep by the time they returned to the Fox residence.With the help of the bodyguards, Holly brought Bryce back to the bedroom and placed him on the bed.She helped him out of his shoes and clothes once the bodyguards left. She then went to get a pile of warm water to wet the towel before wiping his face and neck.When she reached his arm, Bryce suddenly held onto her hand and slowly said, "Even though… you looked… similar to Samantha… but—"Bryce's voice trailed away in the end. His eyes were shut, but his lips were still mumbling something unintelligible.Holly had to scoot closer to his lips to hear what he was saying. "But… I've never… taken you as her substitute. You and her… are both different people."His lips turned slack after finishing his words with difficulty, and his breathing slowly evened out. He had fallen asleep.Holly was puzzled. Why would Bryce suddenly talk about the past?However, she was rather happy upon hearing his words.She had

    Nine intricately carved dragons encircled a round, deep-red garnet at the center of the gold-rimmed signet ring.In the past, such symbols were associated with supreme authority. Regardless of who the owner was, this signet ring hinted at ambitions for sovereignty.Holly asked Abelin, "Where did the client find it?"Abelin replied, "It's from Silverbrooks River. There's a saying that goes, vast fortune awaits those who can decipher the riddle."Holly nodded and said, "I've heard about it, too. It's the lost loot belonging to the rebel leader named Xander Crowe. Rumor has it that a vast treasure lies beneath the river. Many have been searching for it for over a decade.""Yes."Holly lifted the ring and asked, "Why do you say there's a treasure map inside?"Abelin smiled and said, "You're the one who uncovered the treasure map in the Fox residence."Holly's eyes crinkled as she smiled. "Does that mean you're unsure of its existence as well and are just here to try your luck?"Ab

    Bryce answered the call promptly this time.Holly whispered, "Did you ask someone to transfer the money to me?"Bryce said, "Yes. It's originally your money anyway. You've worked hard to earn it." His voice sounded a little cold, yet she couldn't make out any emotions from it.Holly asked, "Why did you leave without informing me? Why didn't you pick up my calls? You didn't even respond to my text messages."Bryce said, "I needed to calm down."Holly's heart throbbed painfully. "Are you trying to break up with me? Just tell me outright if that's the case. You don't have to give me the cold shoulder like this."Bryce said, "Don't overthink it. I only needed to calm down for a moment."Holly paused before asking, "Are you keeping something from me? You should just talk to me about it directly. It's upsetting when you don't say anything. I'd rather argue with you than stay this way."Bryce remained silent for a moment. "I'm just feeling troubled now. I'll feel better after a whil

    Bryce's expression darkened slightly as he lifted the vodka bottle to pour more drinks.Yax snatched the bottle away. "It seems like I'm right. Tell me. Why did you guys fight now? You were so willing to risk your injuries days ago just to travel far to find her. Why are you drowning your sorrows in alcohol now?"Bryce looked down and mumbled, "She wants to break up with me."Yax burst out laughing. "Are you joking? Is Holly that strong-willed? She looked like an easygoing person. I've always thought you were the dominant one in the relationship."Bryce pursed his lips. His emotions were buried deep within his gaze.Not only was she strong-willed, but she had even considered his eyes as substitutes.Such a prideful person like him was rendered to just a small, insignificant substitute. How could he bear such humiliation?Yax picked up a jug and poured Bryce some water, pushing it over to him. "Have some water for now. I'm heading out for a call."Fearing that Bryce would start

    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
