Holly was finding it hard to communicate with Merope. "It was a plane. On top of the unnecessary waste of human life, it's hard to plan a plane crash."

Merope sneered. "I heard all about it while I was coming here. The way the plane crashed indicated that it was deliberately headed toward the sea.

"In other words, something must have happened in the cockpit or, to be precise, something must have happened to the pilot."

She glared at Bryce in hatred. "With his power and wealth, meddling with a plane is child's play."

Holle frowned slightly. "Calm down, Aunt Trista. Don't blame anyone before the investigation is even over."

Merope roared, "How can I calm down? That's my son! He's the only son that I have. I pray with all my heart that he returns home safely, but all I get is bad news. How can I fucking calm down?"

Holly felt extremely guilty.

Abelin had indeed stayed in Jardington for her.

If he hadn't come to Jardington, he could be alive right now.

Sensing her guilt, Bryce pa

    Holly grabbed Bryce's arms tightly. "Have you found him? Have you really found him?""We have. The rescue team I sent out found him on a deserted island.""Oh, thank God!" Holly was usually quiet, but now, she wanted to leap for joy.Then, she thought of something. Carefully, she asked, "Is he okay?"Bryce patted her head, looking at her gently. "He's fine. The rescue team will be bringing him over soon."He caressed her thin face and said, "You need to eat up later on, or you'll run out of breath when walking. You won't even have the energy to see him."Holly felt moved and pained at the same time. "It's been hard on you these few days.""It's fine. As long as we've found him," Bryce said lightly.The attendant brought them some food. This time, Holly ate a lot.When it was almost sunrise, the rescue team called Bryce.They said that they had brought Abelin ashore, and they were currently waiting for the ambulance to arrive. They wanted Bryce and Holly to take a look at him.

    The medics carried Abelin into the ambulance.The moment the doors closed, he relaxed immediately.The doctor expertly treated his wounds.Abelin closed his eyes, his eyebrows furrowing. He put his arms on his abdomen, his face twisted in pain.He'd been keeping it together earlier. He didn't want Holly to worry, and he didn't want to let her see him in a vulnerable state.Men liked to act tough in front of the people they loved.A lot of his muscles had been torn. Since he'd been lost at sea for a few days without medical equipment, some of his wounds were already infected and were oozing with pus.His ribs were broken, and he was bleeding internally.Despite all that, he was alive.He was the only survivor so far.It would be easy to give up on living after drifting at sea for days, succumbing to fear, hunger, and exhaustion.However, the thought of Holly reignited his desire and will to live.It was just like 13 years ago when he was burned in the fire. His lungs were al

    In that instant, Holly felt like she didn't know Merope at all.Merope seemed like a harsh, unkind, and irrational stranger.She was no longer the gentle, kind Aunt Trista that Holly remembered.Holly wanted to get up and walk away right then and there, but she resisted.She would leave after she was sure that Abelin was safe.She said lightly, "Abel saved my life. I'm grateful to him. Why would I harm him?"Merope smiled coldly and stood up. "I'm going to the washroom."Holly nodded.After Merope returned from the washroom, she was wearing a different expression on her face.She took Holly's hand and said kindly, "Holly, Abel has you on his mind all the time. Look, he came to Jardington to find you the moment he was decommissioned. Just answer his prayers, alright?"Come with us to Calria. You're a restorer with a name for yourself. It should be easy for you to migrate. You and Priscilla can leave this place and live with us."Holly was stunned.Merope's anger from before

    Holly took the flasks from Bryce and pulled him aside to sit on a chair.She spoke with him for a while, then remembered that she had gotten food for Merope.She said to the bodyguards, "Give Mrs. Gabelman the food.""Very well, ma'am."The bodyguards handed the food over to Merope, saying, "It's mashed potatoes and chicken."Then, they pointed at the clothes. "These are clothes that Ms. Sinclair has picked out for Abelin."Bryce looked at the bags. She'd even bought socks for Abelin. His eyes dimmed.But his displeasure disappeared when he remembered the angry way that Holly had stood up for him against Merope.Merope said nothing, opening the packaging.The chicken was perfectly fried and crispy. The mashed potatoes glistened, covered in thick brown gravy.She frowned and said in slight disdain, "I don't eat these kinds of things."Holly suppressed her annoyance and said, "I asked you if you wanted anything, and you said you were okay with anything."Merope wasn't actuall

    Holly ran her hands through Bryce's hair, sighing to herself. Boys would be boys. She understood that now.Bryce was mature and cold on the outside, but when he was alone with her, he was all mushy and soft.Bryce pinched her waist. "Don't get distracted. Say it to me."Holly smiled. "I love you. I love you. I… Mmph—"Bryce kissed her lips as he caressed her face.They had been tense for a long time. Now that they'd found Abelin, they relaxed considerably.If they hadn't found him, Holly might spend the rest of her life haunted by him.…Meanwhile, in the hospital, Abelin was wheeled out of the operating room.He was out of danger. They pushed him into his designated ward.After waking up from the anesthetic, he stared at the ceiling, saying nothing.Merope shoved the straw through the cup and fed him, but he didn't even move his lips.Merope sighed. "I've asked her to come to Calria with us, but she refused. She has her sights set on Bryce. "Just let her go. Don't come

    Ten minutes later, Holly got up and said her goodbyes.When she walked out, she met someone familiar.He was about 70 years of age. He had a head of white hair and a thin figure. He was wearing plain clothes and shoes. His gaze was intense, and his eyes were bloodshot.It was Zorro.Holly smiled and greeted him, "Hello, Mr. Gabelman.""I heard that you found my son. I sent out rescue teams, and they searched for days but couldn't find him. I'm so incredibly grateful to you. I must return the favor by bringing you out for a meal."He wanted to treat Holly and Bryce to a meal.Holly agreed to it.They would meet at noon the next day in a fancy seafood restaurant.…The next day, Holly and Bryce went to the restaurant Zorro picked out.Zorro and Merope were already waiting there.A platter of food covered the table.Zorro was generous and welcoming. He talked to Holly and Bryce, refilling their wine.Everyone had been on edge for the past few days. Now that Abelin was rescue

    Bryce and Holly rushed to the washroom at the speed of lightning.They saw Arthur dressed in a suit, his face twisted in agony. He clutched at his bleeding stomach, lying weakly against the wall.His suit was drenched from the waist down. His blood pooled on the floor. They were all over his pants, too.It looked like he hadn't been stabbed just once or twice.There was a golden hairpin on the ground. It had pearls and gems embedded in it.There was blood on the length of it.Henry was calling the ambulance frantically.His bodyguards were all in shock.Bryce interrogated them coldly, "Is this how you protect your boss?"They looked uncomfortable. "Mr. Gabelman Senior told us to leave because he wanted to talk to that woman in private. We didn't think that this would happen."Bryce glared at Arthur and smiled coldly. "Telling them to leave? Did you think you'd be able to make things up with her? And what did that get you?"Arthur was still clutching at his stomach. Sweat bea

    Bryce was about to tell the truth when he stopped himself. "It's Abelin Gabelman, Zorro Gabelman's son."That sounded like someone unimportant. Arthur closed his eyes and said nothing more.He was sent to the emergency care unit to have his wounds treated.He was stabbed thrice in the abdomen. They were about two to three inches deep. It was clear that Merope really hated Arthur.It was fortunate that she hadn't punctured any vital organs and that the wounds weren't that thick. He could be stitched back together.After the surgery was done, Arthur was wheeled into the hospital ward.They put him on an IV drip.The anesthetic was slowly wearing off. It began to hurt uncontrollably.Arthur lay in bed, his face contorted in pain.Bryce stood next to him, his phone in his hands. "Do you want to file a police report?"Arthur shook his head slightly. "Forget it."Bryce raised his eyes mockingly. "And what could be the reason for your generosity?"Arthur said through gritted tee

    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
