Chapter 6

作者: Nine Fifteen
Two years passed.

During those two years, something happened in Corelli City that everyone couldn't stop talking about.

The man once known as the ruthless, untouchable young heir of the Callier family had lost his mind.

He refused to hold a funeral for Roxy Kemp. He refused to accept that she was dead. He'd even bought up every last news report about the border attack, obsessively, just to destroy them all.

He resigned as CEO of the company and spent his days shut up in the guest room he'd f

  • Fate Buried in Snow   Chapter 9

    Felix watched the medallion that carried every ounce of my past devotion sink slowly into the filthy mud.He watched me walk away, my fingers laced with another man's.Felix's world came apart completely.A sharp pain tore through his stomach, and he collapsed stiffly into the mud, retching up mouthful after mouthful of blood.His vision blurred, and he reached out desperately toward the direction I'd gone."Roxy... help me..."He was counting on the instincts of a doctor to make me turn back, to make me run to save him.My steps did falter for a moment.But I didn't turn around. I only said calmly to Johnny beside me, "Sounds like someone fainted. Go ahead and call for an ambulance."Then I bent down, slid into the passenger seat, and shut the door.We drove off without a backward glance.In that moment, Felix's last hope died completely.He finally understood. I wasn't angry with him, and I wasn't seeking revenge.I had simply, truly, cut him out of my life for good.Fe

    Roxy's POV:The clinic's security guards threw Felix out.He refused to give up. He stayed camped outside my apartment building.After nightfall, a rare, violent storm broke over Swotzernland.Rain hammered against Felix's thin shirt, soaking him through. A fever burned through him, but he wouldn't move an inch.He was gambling that this kind of self-inflicted suffering would soften my heart, even just a little.Because in the past, all it ever took was the smallest furrow in his brow to make my eyes sting with tears.He stood in the rain the entire night, until morning finally came and my apartment door opened.I stepped out, calm and composed, holding a black umbrella.The moment he saw me, Felix dropped straight to his knees.The man who'd once carried himself as the untouchable golden boy of Corelli City's elite had thrown away every last shred of his dignity.His hands shaking, he pulled the shattered medallion out from inside his coat, along with a rain-soaked property

    Through more than ten hours of flight, Felix never once closed his eyes.His heart pounded hard enough to break through his chest, and his mind replayed a thousand different versions of their reunion.He was certain that if he admitted his mistakes, if he tore his bleeding heart out and showed it to Roxy, she would soften the way she always had before."She'll feel for me when she sees how much weight I've lost," he thought. "She'll touch my face and forgive me, and come home with me."By the time Felix stumbled up to the private clinic in Swotzernland, his eyes rimmed red, the setting sun had painted the street a warm, glowing orange.Through the glass door, he finally saw the figure that had haunted him for two years.Roxy was organizing patient files.She hadn't died. She was really, truly alive.Felix's tears spilled over instantly. He reached for the door, ready to push it open, when his foot stopped short.A male doctor in a white coat walked up beside Roxy.He held a c

He refused to accept that she was dead.

He treated even the half-empty bottle of lotion she hadn't taken with her as something precious.Every night, deep into the small hours, Felix would curl up on the bed where Roxy used to sleep.He clutched the medallion in a death grip, burying his face in the old clothes she'd left behind, breathing in a scent that had long since faded away.The moment he closed his eyes, it felt like his heart was being ground to pieces.

    The sound of the explosion through the phone seemed to slam straight into Felix's skull.The phone slipped from his hand, and the screen shattered on the floor."Roxy... Roxy!"His legs gave out, and he dropped hard to his knees.A wave of hot, metallic bile surged up his throat, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.He dragged himself back up and roared orders at his assistant to mobilize the private jet and a team of overseas mercenaries for a rescue mission.He refused to believe that the woman who'd loved him like her own life could be dead.Thirteen hours later, Felix stood in the middle of the ruins at the border conflict zone.Smoke hung thick in the air over the devastation.The bombed-out medical vehicle had been reduced to a heap of charred scrap metal, scattered with severed limbs and burned medical equipment."Mr. Callier, it's too dangerous here. There could be a second strike any moment. The search team is...""Get out of my way!"Felix shoved past his bodygu

    The next morning, Felix walked out of the master bedroom and found the guest room door standing wide open, the room empty.He frowned and walked to the desk, where the annulment statement caught his eye immediately.Tiffany stood nearby, feigning guilt, her eyes rimmed red. "Felix, is Roxy really angry with me? Maybe I should go find her..."Felix only scoffed. "Don't bother. She's just playing hard to get. She loves me too much to survive without me. She won't last three days before she comes crawling back."Felix was certain I was just throwing a tantrum.But a full week passed, and there was no word from me at all.No calls, no texts. Even the hospital said I'd already resigned.Felix's certainty slowly curdled into irritation.Then one day, walking down the hallway, something made him glance at a trash can that hadn't been emptied yet.A ring, caked in grime, sat quietly inside it.It was the engagement ring he'd had his assistant buy on a whim, just to placate his grandf
