She Wows the World Post-divorce Chapter 45
"I brushed my teeth last night." Holly jostled him lightly with her shoulder and said cutely, "Brush your teeth, please?"Bryce gripped her shoulder with a smile. "You're a bit different compared to before.""How so?""You've learned how to act cutely now, and you've become a bit more talkative."Holly laughed. "Don't all men like women who act cutely?"Bryce smiled. "That's true."He let her go and entered the bathroom, Holly after him. His right hand was injured, which made it difficult for him to squeeze toothpaste on his toothbrush, so Holly did it for him. Bryce picked up his toothbrush with his left hand and started brushing. Maybe humans tended to be more emotional at night, but Holly started feeling a bit sad when she remembered that she wouldn't have many more days left with him. Unable to control herself, she looped her arms around his waist from behind and burrowed her head into the expanse of his back. She said nothing, but she couldn't bear to part with him

Holly's smile froze on her face as she gripped the handle of her cup tightly. Arthur watched her meaningfully. "The Gabelman and Cott families have had a close business relationship for decades. Bryce and Samantha grew up together, too. "We've always thought of Samantha as our future daughter-in-law. We chose you as Bryce's wife because Samantha had gone overseas, and you looked like her. "Bryce needed someone like that by his side. That person could be you, or it could be anyone else that looked like Samantha."Holly had always thought of herself as someone with strong mental fortitude, but now, she found herself unable to keep up pretenses. She pursed her lips tightly and said nothing, cradling her cup in her palms with her head lowered. Tears rimmed in her eyes, and she felt like they would stream down her face at the next moment. She heard Arthur say in his cold and unfeeling voice, "You gave up three years of your youth, and you'd been a great help to Bryce, but he'd he

Holly returned to Winona's ward. Priscilla noticed she looked very pale, so she asked worriedly, "What happened, Holly? Why do you look so pale?"Holly shook her head. She walked over to Winona's bed and sat down beside it. Then, she held Winona's hand and chatted with her, a smile on her face.Priscilla had a hot temper. Holly and Winona had only chatted with each other for a short time when Priscilla rushed forward and grabbed Holly's wrist. "We're going out there."When they were out in the corridor, she looked into Holly's eyes. "Did Bryce mistreat you again?""No.""Who made you sad, then? I'm your mother! Who else will you talk to when you feel upset if not me?" Priscilla was a bit anxious. Holly said calmly, "Arthur talked to me.""Did Arthur give you a hard time?""He wants us to divorce."Priscilla sneered. "Why didn't he force you to do that when Bryce was wheelchair-bound? Now that Bryce can walk, he's forcing you to divorce him! How heartless! "He took advantage

Bryce tucked his phone and documents into his briefcase before saying indifferently, "Might as well see it to the end."The word "end" made Holly's heart clench. After removing the brace, Horace gave Holly a lot of reminders and pointers, including how the physiotherapy process would go. Bryce typed everything down on his phone and sent it to Holly's phone after coming out. They returned to Winona's ward, where Hayden was conducting a check-up on her. Priscilla was chatting with Hayden with a smile. Upon noticing Bryce, she started speaking louder on purpose, saying, "Dr. Seales, do you have a girlfriend?"Hayden glanced at Holly. He said, "No."That aroused Priscilla's interest. "What do you think about Holly? She's been excellent in her studies ever since she was a kid, and she even skipped a few grades at school—she graduated from university when she was 19 years old. "She's an obedient kid, has a good temper, and isn't afraid of hardships either. And you know how good

Holly's heart skipped a beat. She didn't expect Bryce to figure it out so quickly. She thought back to Arthur's request that she keep their meeting a secret from him, in fear that this would ruin the relationship between the father and son. So, feigning nonchalance, she said, "You proposed a divorce long ago, and I told you I can't stand Samantha."Bryce rubbed her back in small motions. "That's a lie. I've been doing all I can to distance myself from her recently."The corners of Holly's lips lifted up, but there was no joy in her eyes. She said blandly, "The two of you have been friends since childhood, and your families are of similar social status, while I'm just a nanny you hired. Now that you can walk again, it's time for the nanny to leave."Her self-deprecating words made Bryce's heart sink. His arms tightened around her. He was usually cold and stony-faced, but now his words were so gentle. "I've never seen you as a nanny. Really. You're my wife, in name and in deed, an

On Saturday night, Holly and Bryce headed to Gabelman Manor together. The moment they entered the house, Olivia came up with a smile and greeted Holly jovially, "You're here, Holly!"Holly answered obediently, "Hello, Grandma.""Hello, Holly! Okay, have a seat, have a seat." Olivia took Holly's hand affectionately, and they sat down on the couch. She peered at Holly's flat abdomen and asked mysteriously, "Have you gotten pregnant, Holly?"Holly shook her head and smiled apologetically. "Bryce and I are having a divorce. Sorry about that."Olivia was stunned. Her smile froze on her face, and her eyes were filled with disappointment. "Didn't you promise that you'd give birth to my great-grandson? It's only been such a short time since then, so why has that changed?"Holly cast her eyes down in silence. She had thought that not having children was the right thing to do, but she started feeling guilty when she met Olivia's disappointed gaze. Olivia was an understanding person, and

His face dark, Arthur said, "You can't run a successful business if you're too kind and righteous. I'm a businessman, and businessmen prioritize the benefits we gain. "Businessmen who don't prioritize that are not up to the standard. I've already laid all the reasons behind my actions out in detail for Holly, and she'd agreed to the divorce."Holly thought back to the humiliating conversation at the café, and her scalp numbed. She really didn't want to experience that again. She pushed Bryce's hand away gently and stood up, saying to Arthur, "Father—No, Mr. Gabelman—I want to talk to you alone."Arthur glanced at her coolly. "Come with me to the study."Bryce got up, about to follow after her, but she said, "You don't need to come with me."Bryce pinched her hand and said gently, "Just leave if you feel unhappy. You don't need to hold your emotions in."Holly nodded in acknowledgment.She followed Arthur to the study, where Richard was also present. Richard was working on

Olivia got up from the couch and looked at Holly from afar. She tried to squeeze out a smile but to no avail.Holly went over to her and hugged her silently. After a while, she said, "Grandma, you have leg pain. Remember to eat your calcium supplements every day. You have to get more sunlight in the winter. "Don't stay under the air conditioner or overeat watermelon in the summer. Your stomach's weak. You shouldn't eat too many cold foods."Olivia suddenly understood everything after hearing what Holly said. Tears began streaming down her face.She wrapped her arms around Holly tightly. "Holly, oh, Holly, please stay. Please stay here, okay?"Holly was saddened. She sobbed and said, "Grandma, I… I've made up my mind."Olivia started to cry inconsolably. She hugged Holly even tighter. "Holly, our family has let you down. We've let you down. I don't want you to leave!"Holly felt as if she had been stabbed in the chest. "Thanks for everything you've done for me in the past thre

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
