She Wows the World Post-divorce

Holly's emotions were all jumbled up, and she didn't know how to answer him.She turned around slowly and looked at Bryce. He didn't smile often, but he had a gorgeous smile when he did. It was as gentle as a spring breeze, and his eyes were as dark as ink but bright as if there were a sea of stars in them. He must be elated because he was about to be with the love of his life. Holly smiled, too, but hers was the smile of the heartbroken. "I hope you're happy, too," she said. Then, she turned and got into the car. The moment the car door closed, tears trickled out of her eyes. She felt as if old wounds had been ripped open before she could even recover from the newest blow, and it made her want to curl up in pain. The driver put her suitcase into the trunk, got in, and started the engine. Bryce watched the car speed off, and his smile stiffened as the light in his eyes grew dim.… Holly reached the Sinclair residence and entered, dragging her suitcase behind her. Priscilla Sax

Samantha's pale, tiny face looked scarily similar to Holly's. She couldn't pinpoint what was similar about them, but there was an immediate resemblance. It would take a second glance to tell them apart. When she looked closely, she saw that Samantha was the frail, feminine version of herself. She had curved eyebrows, and her forehead was wrinkled slightly. She had a button nose and a tiny mouth, and her features seemed fragile. In contrast, Holly was calm and composed, and there was resilience in her. At that moment, Holly realized that she had always been a replacement in Bryce's heart. She laughed at herself. No wonder he had promised to marry her once he saw her. This was the reason. "Bryce, y-you've come, too." Samantha's mother, Quirina Habel, greeted them with a forced smile. Her gaze sharpened as it swept over Holly. Bryce inclined his head in greeting. Quirina walked over to the bed and patted Samantha's shoulder gently. "Samantha, Bryce has come to see

The tall and skinny one fell onto the ground with a hard thump. His body seemed to contort like a ragged sack. His legs kicked out, and then his eyes closed as dark blood seeped out from under his head. The dogs in the yard barked incessantly. The bald one was about to escape the commotion when the police surged up and pressed him onto the ground. They snatched the painting from him and handcuffed him.Holly's hands were still pressed to the window frame as she stared at Bryce, who had fired the gun. She had been married to him for three years, but she had no idea that he knew how to use a gun or that he was such a good marksman. In that critical moment, a tiny deviation in speed or timing would have been a deadly blow to her.Bryce threw down his gun and strode over to her. He carried her off the windowsill and carefully took care of the wound on her neck. He hugged her tightly, and his fingers softly caressed her face, which was pale with fright. He asked gently, "You mus

Without warning, Samantha was slapped in the face a few times. She was completely dazed. Her face burned with pain, and there was a ringing in her ears. She saw stars. No one had ever dared to touch her in her entire life.She was furious, and she grabbed the other party's arm and began scratching her. The two of them were locked together in a fight. The Cotts' driver hurriedly came out from the corner where he had been hiding and pulled them apart. Samantha finally saw that the person who had hit her was Bryce's sister, Nina Gabelman. She was shocked.Holly was also very surprised to see Nina. She was afraid that Nina would be hurt, so she hurriedly stood in front of her.Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Nina's wrist was bleeding from where Samantha had scratched her. Holly's heart hurt. She took out a bandaid from her bag and carefully put it on. She asked gently, "Does it hurt?"Nina took a sharp intake of breath from the pain and said, "It's fine, Holly

Thinking that Bryce was in trouble, Holly grabbed her coat and shot to her feet. She didn't even say goodbye as she headed for the exit.Hayden ate at the same table as her. He noticed something was wrong. So, he grabbed his car keys, ran after her, and asked, "Has something happened?"Holly forced a smile. "I'm going to Tentation to do something. Please enjoy your meal without me."Hayden raised his car keys. "I'll drive you there."Holly didn't refuse his offer since she was in total panic mode. Instead, she thanked him.…They arrived outside Tentation 20 minutes later.Holly got out of the car and ran toward the entrance. The wind blew, lifting the hem of her coat slightly and revealing her slender calves.She quickly took the elevator to the private room on the third floor. Holly barged into the room, only to see Samantha bringing a spoonful of soup to Bryce's lips.The two sat side by side. Samantha's cheeks were pinkish, and her eyes glistened under the light. She was
