Semua Bab Goodbye My Love: Bab 141 - Bab 150

Xander let the days pass. He wants to make sure of his theory before facing Hannah again. During those days, he took care of the issue with the Miller Group stocks. Despite that, he remained clueless that Charles Thompson had now owned 36% of the Miller Group shares as the company never used their real name. All the shares are owned by 20 different dummy accounts, all with offshore accounts in the Cayman Islands.Though Xander remained in the dark regarding the said accounts, it still took a toll on Charles’s plans, as Xander made it clear that he would repurchase all the shares that the investors no longer wanted.After the buyback, he made an official statement about his involvement with Denise and brought to light how he was also a victim of her lies and duplicity. Revealing to everyone that the aloof business tycoon known as Xander Miller has a vulnerable side. That he would let justice take its course not only to the lawsuit against Denise but also to his mother Lani Briar, who

“Xander!” Hannah called out to him angrily.He turned around only for his cheek to collide with her palm.~SLAP!Asher and Alister’s eyes widened in surprise, and they discreetly returned to the room.“You monster. You know he just got out of surgery, how dare you hurt him?” He held his throbbing cheek, “He stole Bridget's ashes—”She laughs.” And you stole her life from me—“It was an accident. It's not my fault—Of course, it's not. None of it is… it's not your fault that I was treated like trash for almost 4 years. It's not your fault that your mother took her from me. It's not your fault that you never listened to me or believed me. It's not your fault as always because you are so perfect…. Xander Miller can never do wrong.” She states with emphasis as she tries to speak in a low voice.She sniffs, “Burden, that's what we are to you… You and your family never treated us well. I was never treated as your wife or Bridget as your daughter. We are just noisy, pathetic strangers living

In the blink of an eye, Katarina was laid to rest. With the scandal still fresh, few people attended her burial. Of all the friends she used to have, only Jessica and her mother Josie attended.On the Miller Group side: Yuri, who facilitated everything, was present 100% of the time. A few employees and shareholders went to send their condolences but soon left after seeing Xander. Toby, as a good friend, remained at Xander’s side while Ashton was still in the hospital recuperating. Despite their altercation, Ashton did not forget to send his condolences via text. A gesture that Xander valued.As Katarina’s casket was lowered to the ground, Xander couldn’t help but glance around and check his phone, waiting for anything from Hannah. A simple condolence message would brighten his gloomy day.He waited till most of the mourners left and only him, Yuri, and Toby were left.“Do you want to go for a drink?” Toby asks to break the awkward silence in the air. Xander nods and then motions to

Ashton’s welcome party was one of the best nights of his life. His family is complete. The mansion is filled with his oldest friend and his newfound friends and a woman he never knew would complete him. As the night progressed, Clarise became intoxicated, as she enjoyed the expensive wine from the Monroe collection. She's so hammered that she can no longer stand straight. Leon could not stop himself from laughing, “You’ve overdone yourself, sis,” he muttered sarcastically.Shortly after, they heard the sound of metal hitting a glass. It's Asher trying to get everyone's attention.~DING!~DING!~DING!Asher cleared his throat, “Everyone. I don't want to spoil Ashton's night but… Before we end the party I want to tell you all that I'm heading back to Europe tomorrow morning.” He declared as he lifted his wine glass and drank its contents. “Already?” Alfie asked.Asher laughs, “I miss my wife and kids. What can I say, but don't worry, we’ll be here on Christmas and New Year.” He exclai

The supposedly happy lunch date was filled with awkward silence. Hannah and Ashton could only stare at each other while trying to savor the food in front of them. They can’t talk about work or personal life as Xander is with them, and he has no plans to leave. He kept reaching for her hand but she kept evading his touch. The tension increases as time passes by. Xander sliced his steak and then offered to feed her.“Come on have a taste,” he demanded as he wiggled his fork in front of her. She felt uncomfortable and unsure how to react.Ashton saw how her body stiffened in tension and uneasiness. He hates to see her that way. He wants to stand up and punch Xander in the face till he becomes unrecognizable, but he knows too well that in his current condition, he will cause more damage to himself than to Xander. “I’m sorry. I’m so useless.” He mumbled to himself while looking at Hannah apologetically.Without saying any words, she understood his gaze. She’s about to give in to Xander’s
