Holly looked at her watch and asked, "How much longer before your flight?"

Abelin replied, "I'm about to leave soon."

He then looked at Bryce and said, "Protect her well."

Bryce nodded. "All the best."

Abelin looked at him with an intensive gaze. Suddenly, he walked over to Bryce and did something no one had expected—he hugged Bryce in a loose embrace.

Bryce hesitated slightly. He instinctively recoiled from the hug. He wanted to push Abelin away, yet he gave up, worried that he might hurt Abelin's pride.

Abelin whispered softly, "You saved my life in the plane crash previously. Just let me know if you need anything. I don't want to owe you favors."

Bryce calmly replied, "You saved Holly's life, and I saved yours. We're even now."

"No. Holly and you are different people. Just let me know if you need something. I'll stand by you no matter what," Abelin said before letting him go.

He then walked away quickly and resolutely toward the boarding gate. It was as if he might be reluc

    After a long while, Bryce said, "I've had someone investigate Whitney. She took a break from university back then because she fell ill, not because she was having a child."Yoel slowly clasped his hands together. His expression changed slightly. "Have you figured it out?"Bryce hummed and calmly replied, "Don't worry. I've already gotten someone to change Whitney's from gynecology to obstetrics. It'll seem more convincing that way."If someone were to investigate again, they'd find that she has had a child. No matter who looks into it, Holly will be the daughter of you two."Yoel's expression stiffened. He remained silent for the longest time. Various complicated thoughts and feelings flooded his mind. He didn't know how to respond to Bryce.Bryce calmly said, "Now that we're in the same boat, you don't have to hide it from me anymore."Yoel started smiling only then. "You're pretty smart, aren't you? It's all my fault for forgetting about the medical records."Bryce said, "The

    The echoes of footsteps pulled Bryce out of his reverie. It was Linda Caroll, the nurse who took care of Queenie.Bryce handed the flowers over to her. "Please pass this to Aunt Queenie."He would visit her twice a month. Sometimes, he would pay for Queenie's medical bills, and other times, he would bring some daily necessities over. Linda was long associated with him. She took the flowers and smiled. "I'll thank you on her behalf, Mr. Gabelman."Bryce nodded slightly. Linda then opened the door and walked in.As the door crack grew wider, Yoel could now see Queenie's pale face clearly. Despite looking haggard, she still retained her looks from her youth.He played around with the jewelry box inside his pocket. The velvet edges of the jewelry box had turned white from countless touches. It bore the marks of aging.Kept within was a ring he bought many years ago.Since they were young, Yoel and Queenie had studied arts with a famous painter in Jardington. She was older than h

    Yoel raised his hand and slapped Quirina across the face.Quirina was caught off guard by the sudden slap. Her ears rang as her cheek throbbed in pain. She dropped her act and yelled angrily, "How dare you hit me, Larsen!"Yoel took the disinfectant wet wipe from Bryce and slowly wiped his hands. He calmly replied, "Sorry. I couldn't help it.""You couldn't help it? Does that mean you could just hit me like that?" Quirina rushed toward him with a raised hand. She wanted to repay him with a slap.Abraham pulled her by the arm and said, "Watch what you say next time. Don't make unnecessary comments."Despite being held back, Quirina still wanted to rush forward. "What I said was the truth!""Enough. Let's just head back. We can visit Queenie another day." Abraham pulled her along to leave.Yet Quirina was reluctant to leave. "We should just see her since we're already here."Bryce looked up to Linda, who was standing by the side. "Don't allow these two to visit Aunt Queenie anymo

    Holly would frequently receive gifts from Bryce soon after.One day, he gifted her a lifelike Barbie doll—the kind where you could change its clothes. It came with a variety of princess dresses, as well as a mini comb, necklace, high heels, and all sorts of accessories.Another day, he would send her stuffed toys—a fluffy bunny, dolphin, cartoon cat, giraffe, and others. They were all in pastel colors and looked cute.Holly was amused. She wasn't even interested in these toys when she was younger, much less now.Tonight, Bryce brought a huge teddy bear back as he returned from work.He looked mature and smart, dressed in a suit and tie, yet he was hugging a huge cartoon plush. It was a contradictory sight.Holly couldn't help but say, "You shouldn't bring those to me anymore."Bryce placed the teddy bear on the couch. "Do you not like them?"Holly looked at the five-foot-long brown teddy bear—there wasn't any space to place it. "I'm already 24 years old. These are all things th

    Even Annie thought that something was off with Bryce. While he was away, she whispered, "Mr. Gabelman has been acting a little strange recently."Holly agreed, "You're right."Annie asked, "Is he cheating on you?"Holly didn't think so. "It shouldn't be. He's been treating me really well recently. He's sending me all sorts of toys daily. "He sends me over ten messages and calls me at least three times per day. He comes over to spend time with me as soon as he's off work. Even so, he'd also need to have the time to cheat on me."Annie was completely baffled. "How unfathomable is a man's heart!"Holly asked, "How are things between you and Caleb now?"Annie coughed. "What could still happen between me and that silly guy? We're just friends."Speaking of the devil—Annie's phone rang.When the call was connected, Caleb's casual tone could be heard from the phone. "I'm currently at the pub two miles away from Winds Residences. Come over for a drinking contest!"Annie perked up in

    Even a country bumpkin could easily transfer 15 million in foreign currency. It would have been over a million if converted.Unless Samantha obtained her inheritance, she would never have such a huge sum of money at her disposal.She felt a painful sting upon recalling the more than 50 million dollars Holly had swindled from her months ago.…Once Holly and Cooper left, Samantha withdrew some money and handed it over to her driver to carry.She got into the car and gave Arthur a call, over-exaggerating the matter. "I saw Holly in the bank earlier, Uncle Arthur. She transferred over a million to some Aunt Merope or Abel. "That money must've been yours, right? How could she transfer your money to someone else?"Samantha expected Arthur to be furious and harshly scold Holly. She didn't expect him to leisurely reply, "Holly has made quite a bit of money. She could use her own money however she likes."Samantha was stunned. After a while, she muttered, "You're quite generous now, a

    Abraham was smoking by the window. He heard all of Quirina and Samantha's conversation.He put out his cigarette and turned around. He then told Quirina, "Bryce will be going on a business trip to Haryndale tomorrow. He'll be meeting up with some material suppliers to sign contracts."Get some burner phones and handle it discreetly."Quirina's eyes lit up upon hearing that there was an opportunity. "How do we handle it?"Abraham stared at her for a moment. "Forget it. I'll just send my men for it. You both lack knowledge and are incompetent."Quirina was unhappy. "Don't look down on us. I could still break Bryce and Holly apart using my methods."Abraham chuckled and said, "With your amateurish tactics, not only didn't you manage to break them apart, but you even sent Samantha to Levi."His expression hardened. He saw a tall figure standing behind the foyer. Upon closer inspection, he found that it was Moses.The smile on Abraham's face froze. "When did you get back, Moses? Why

    Bryce got up when they were done with dinner, with Jacob and Andy following suit. Max and the others walked them back to the hotel. Their hotel was right upstairs.With his keen observation skills, Tobin had figured out the reason Bryce had been eying Mariposa's wrist. After all, he had prior experience from buying countless dolls and toys on behalf of Bryce recently.Once Bryce went into his room, Tobin called Mariposa. "May I ask where you bought the bracelet you were wearing tonight? What brand was it from?"Mariposa replied, "I bought it from Gwenzel. It's a Cartier bracelet."Tobin replied, "Alright. Thank you."It was merely an innocent question, yet it made Mariposa start speculating once again. She assumed that Bryce had prompted Tobin to give her a hint.Coincidentally, Max brought a set of documents over to her. "Send these documents to Mr. Gabelman's room, Ms. Perez. Whether tomorrow's deal can be closed depends on you now."They were well aware of the unspoken rule

    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
