She Wows the World Post-divorce Chapter 374
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

Yax followed behind Bryce, a bag in his hand. Upon seeing Samantha, he greeted her with a flirtatious "Yo" and said nothing else.They entered the elevator, and Samantha quickly slipped inside as well. She was peering eagerly at his figure from behind, shrinking and cowering like a pitiful person.Bryce stood tall and straight. He looked down and stared at the elevator buttons expressionlessly.Yax found Samantha's timid demeanor funny. "Why are you sneaking around like a snake, Ms. Cott? Are you thinking of stepping in now that Bryce and Holly have broken up?"Upon hearing that, Samantha blinked and asked eagerly, "Did they really break up, Yax?"Before Yax could even answer her, Bryce said without turning back, "Our relationship status has nothing to do with you. Stop being delusional."Samantha frowned. "We were childhood friends for over ten years, Bryce. Why would you rather consider an outsider like Penelope than me? I'm not any worse than Holly. I don't mind if you take me

Holly ended the call and blocked Samantha's number. Samantha's call no longer got through when she tried again.She was so upset that she had nowhere to vent her anger. She then got into the car and borrowed her driver's phone to call Holly again."Why are you acting all smug, Holly? You ended up getting dumped by Bryce anyway. He was even asking for hostesses to keep him company at Tentalion earlier. In his eyes, you're no different from those hostesses who would willingly sell themselves for money!"Holly's grip on her phone tightened. She icily replied, "Someday, that big mouth of yours will cause you trouble."After that, she blocked that number as well.How could Bryce call up hostesses when he was such a germaphobe? Samantha couldn't even lie properly.…It was still daytime in Calria due to time differences.Holly returned to her room after lunch to continue her work until nighttime.After washing up, she sat on her bed and picked up the signet ring. She then starte

Holly wanted to have a closer look, so she held onto the candle and slowly walked toward the signet ring. But the pattern disappeared as soon as she walked closer, and it also didn't appear when she backed away.Holly tried pacing back and forth repeatedly. She found the pattern was the clearest when she stood 16 feet away.She stared at the pattern on the wall and studied it closely. On the top was a mountain that resembled a dragon's head, with a huge boulder at its peak. The words "Mt. Dragonspine" were faintly visible on that massive stone. The garnet in the middle of the signet ring was projected directly beneath those words.It was easy to achieve such a projection technique using high-end technology in the technologically advanced world today. However, it was rather impressive for such a feat to be done at the end of Monclair era without the help of such advanced technology.The wisdom of those in the past shouldn't be underestimated, after all.Holly asked Cooper to ho

Holly was shocked by the sudden turn of events.They were both supposed to be so in love, but Bryce ended up getting drunk and leaving early without informing her. He then refused to pick up her calls, respond to her text messages, and intentionally gave her the cold shoulder.But tonight, he suddenly wanted to make amends with her.It was as if they were on a roller coaster ride full of twists and turns. It would be hard for her to endure it without some resilience.After staying silent for a moment, Holly said, "I need time to calm down as well. Let's just talk when we're both calmed down."She was turning him down.Bryce's heart sank. "I've always had a bad temper. It was even worse before this, but you used to tolerate me endlessly."Holly smiled slightly and said, "Perhaps one's personality is bound to change after going through some rough patches. Even their patience would decrease as well."Her heart had gradually hardened, and her disappointment slowly accumulated. This

During lunch the next day, Hunter told Holly, "I'll bring you to an auction later. I heard there are many valuable items."Holly loved going to auctions. Not only could she broaden her horizons, but she could even discover hidden treasures. It was especially so for overseas auctions—many collections that couldn't be found in her country were available.Just as women naturally loved jewelry and finery, Holly had a deep-seated passion for antiques. …When night came, Hunter and Holly went to the auction with their bodyguards.It wasn't a big-scaled auction like Kristy's or Sodaby's—it was a migrant-exclusive auction. All attendees were migrants.Holly indeed came across many valuable items. Overseas auctions were much more interesting than the ones she was used to.The lots up for auction included an ancient lyre and a colored statue both from the Toulouse era, the King's cup from the Monclair era, an intricately inscribed scroll, and an emerald pendant.There were also all sort

Holly placed the Edgewood vase down on the table. She then smiled and said, "I have been learning from my grandpa since I was three or four years old. I've been in this trade for almost 20 years now."Since I was young, I have restored the paintings of Stanley Warner, George Hughes, Daryn Talbott, and Zachary Quine, among others."Hunter casually stroked his chin and said, "Holly is a top-tier cultural relics restorer back in her country, yet she's been underestimated by all of you here. I'll advise you not to judge a book by its covers—you shouldn't be looking down on her."The crowd's perception of Holly slightly changed for the better after hearing them both.Among them, an old man in his 60s was studying the Edgewood vase by Holly's side with keen eyes. He asked, "Tell me. Why would you spend 20 million dollars to acquire this Edgewood vase, miss?"Holly's finger gently traced the pattern on the vase. She softly said, "This is not an ordinary Edgewood vase. The two tigers here

Zorro was very generous. He immediately took out his checkbook from his bag and wrote a check for Holly on the spot. It was more than 14 million in foreign currency.Despite looking calm outwardly, Holly was overjoyed.The tiger on the Edgewood vase was indeed hand-painted by King Konrad. The anecdote as well as the fact that she wanted to increase her luck were also true. However, Holly lied about wanting to add it to her own collection. She did that to increase the vase's value and gain more profit.They were willing to spend over 200 million dollars to acquire a royal goblet. It would be just a drop in the bucket for them to spend 100 million dollars on an Edgewood vase hand-painted by royalty.Hunter took a sip of his coffee before telling Holly, "This is Mr. Zorro Gabelman, Holly. He's Abelin's father."Holly couldn't help but marvel at Hunter's shrewdness. He only spoke up after she received the money. If he had told her about it earlier, she would have sold it to Zorro at

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
