All Chapters of A Whisper of Love's End: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

After signing the agreement, Isabella Jones stepped out and happened to catch a live interview with Samuel Grant on the news.The host asked, "Mr. Grant, you're so young and accomplished. What's your secret to success?"Samuel raised his left hand and pointed to the wedding ring on his ring finger. "The secret is simple. I have a wonderful wife."The host blinked in surprise. "Oh? I thought you'd share some insights about the industry and your future plans instead.""That's not important. All the wealth I have right now doesn't compare to even a single strand of my wife's hair.""Wow, I really envy your wife…"On the screen, Samuel glanced at his watch, then smiled at the camera. "Sorry, we'll have to pause the interview for a moment. Time's almost up. I'd like to use this live broadcast to say something to my wife.""Of course, Mr. Grant. Go ahead."Samuel's voice softened. "Bella, I just had someone bring you some ginger tea with honey. It should be arriving soon. Drink it an

Samuel thought for a moment, then nodded with a patient smile. "Okay, let's open our surprises together. It'll be more meaningful that way."Isabella suddenly had the urge to see Samuel's reaction when he found out she had passed away and when he saw the divorce papers after. Would he be shocked, confused, or... surprised?Samuel, ever the charmer, tried to cheer her up. "I heard there's a good movie out. How about I take you to see it?"Isabella wasn't interested, but the theater he mentioned was right next to their old high school. It was the place where he had confessed his love to her for the first time.Back in their school days, they spent countless romantic, sweet moments on the street behind the school. It was a place that witnessed the happiest days of their love.Since that was where it all began, it might as well be where it ended.When they arrived at the theater, it was a little crowded.Samuel wrapped his arm around her protectively, pulling her close to shield h

Being held by Samuel used to feel like happiness. But now, Isabella only felt discomfort.She broke free from his embrace and stepped away from him, putting a few paces between them.Samuel seemed even more panicked and rushed after her. "Bella, do you want to go on a trip? Next week, I promise I'll clear my schedule and spend all my time with you. Don't be mad. Don't leave me, okay?"Isabella only felt a cold emptiness inside.The man who was begging her not to leave, pleading like this—was he the real Samuel? Or was it the man she had seen on the video, tangled up with Jennifer?Isabella couldn't tell anymore.But it didn't matter. Soon, she would leave him forever. Whether she knew which version of him was real, it wouldn't make any difference.She spoke flatly, "You're overthinking. Didn't you say we're having a ceremony for our anniversary?"Samuel still didn't believe it and continued to pester her. "But what about the new documents you mentioned? What documents did you g

On the other side of the airport, Samuel's car was parked on the side of the road. The car's special that no one could see inside. But the car was shaking more and more, the movements growing quicker and more forceful.Jennifer was nestled against Samuel, pouting and trying to be playful. "You're really going to go ahead with that five-year anniversary celebration with her tomorrow? I don't want to let you go. Can't you stay a little longer with me and the baby?"Samuel pinched her cheek, offering a half-hearted reply. "Be good. Remember that purse you liked? I'll transfer the money to you. You can buy it yourself."Jennifer's eyes lit up. "You better not be lying to me.""When have I ever lied to you?"As Samuel listened to her voice, he suddenly felt like it was grating on his nerves. Needing some peace, he immediately grabbed his phone, transferred the money, and added the note: voluntary gift.Jennifer hugged him tighter, kissing his cheek in return. He held her in his arms

"This can't be... this can't be happening!"Bella is afraid of heights! She wouldn't fall from the mountaintop—she's always so careful! You're lying to me. You have to be! Bella's just playing hide and seek with me! She's just mad at me. She's upset I haven't been spending enough time with her. She's hiding somewhere. I just need to find her."Bella! Bella, where are you? I'm coming to find you..."The world seemed to spin. Samuel felt like the earth itself was collapsing with Isabella's disappearance.He rushed out of the bedroom, flinging open nearby rooms, one after the other. Then, he rushed down the stairs, frantically searching every corner of the house.But there was no sign of Isabella.Not just her—her clothes, shoes, bag, even her cup, towel, and toothbrush... all of it was gone.It was as if Isabella had never lived in this house at all!A wave of panic suddenly hit Samuel, and an unprecedented fear washed over his entire being.Isabella had told him in that letter—
