Semua Bab The CEO Who Searched the World for Me: Bab 1 - Bab 10

"Miss Snow, the post-mortem service you purchased will take place in seven days, at the mudflats under Northern Gate Bridge. At that time, we will send someone down to 'rescue' you, retrieve your clothing as a keepsake, and then contact your family to inform them of your death. Please confirm, and we’ll begin the preparations.""No problem." Nicole nodded and transferred a sum of money.She recalled something Tristan Ford had once told her: “Nicky, I want to spend my whole life with you. Unless death separates us, I’ll search the ends of the earth to find you.”Fine, then she would die, so he could never find her.After booking the post-mortem service, Nicole immediately headed to a hotel."Are you canceling the wedding anniversary banquet scheduled with Mr. Ford in seven days?" Nicole glanced at a couple holding a wedding ceremony on the lawn and nodded. "Yes, cancel it.""But this venue was booked by Mr. Ford three years ago. He said it was your favorite and asked us to reserve i

After sitting in the lounge for a while, Nicole started to feel drowsy. She turned off the lights, hoping to catch some rest. Just then, a few people walked over to the water cooler nearby."Life’s really getting sweeter, isn’t it?" one of them remarked."Right? A little overtime at the office, and we walk away with a thousand bucks in hush money. Mr. Ford’s really getting generous.""All this just to keep Nicole Snow in the dark while he fools around with that starlet? Why not just get a divorce?""Watch what you’re saying! Mr. Ford made it clear that Miss Snow must never find out about his affairs. Don’t get reckless. Besides, what’s wrong with us getting paid? It’s been two years, and I’ve made quite a bit from this."Their conversation ended as they walked away, leaving Nicole trembling on the sofa.So, everyone in the company knew. They all knew Tristan was seeing another woman.Everyone, except her. For two years, she’d been the only fool left in the dark.Rising in the darkness,

Seeing her, Tristan couldn’t hide his excitement. He walked over and pretended to have a polite small talk with Lisa. But the way his hands fidgeted and the unspoken emotions flickering in his eyes didn’t escape Nicole’s notice. "Miss Snow, happy birthday," Lisa said as she handed over a gift. "This is for you. I hope you like it." "How thoughtful of you, Miss Evans." Nicole took the gift, though her expression remained far from warm. "Why is Lisa Evans here?" A few guests exchanged surprised glances. "Exactly. She’s just an actress. What’s she doing at an event like this?" "Careful what you say. Actress or not, did you notice the diamond necklace she’s wearing?" "My God, how could someone like her afford something so expensive?" Nicole’s gaze shifted to Lisa’s neck, and she noticed the exquisite necklace. She recognized it instantly. It was the same necklace Tristan had gifted her in their second year of marriage. He’d told her it was one of only two in the world

Nicole came back to her senses, gazing at the fireworks as she murmured, "The flowers still bloom in the gentle spring breeze, but the face I long for has vanished.""Why say something so sad?" Tristan pulled her into a tight embrace. "I love you, Nicky. Please, don’t leave me."Love?Nicole found it laughable. She wanted to ask him how he could profess love to her right after being with another woman in their bed. How could he feel no shame? How could he be so utterly brazen?She sighed. Forget it—all of it. She had already made up her mind. She would leave him for good.That night, the party went on until late. One by one, the guests eventually left.As usual, Tristan left early the next morning.Nicole picked up her phone and noticed a text message."Open your phone and watch Lisa Evans’s livestream. You’ll see what you want to see."The number was unfamiliar, but she had a pretty good idea of who it could be.She searched for Lisa’s livestream and clicked into it. Sure enough, Lisa

After being pulled from the river, Nicole took the documents prepared for her and boarded a plane bound for a new country. The roar of the engines filled her ears as she glanced down at the receding ground below. Taking a deep breath, she felt a sense of finality. It was all over. She was ready to embrace her new life. When the plane landed, someone was already waiting to take her to a small café. From the moment she discovered Tristan’s betrayal, Nicole had been preparing for this. Using the money Tristan had given her, she had purchased the café to start anew. Her new chapter had begun. Tristan was now a thing of the past. …Meanwhile, Tristan had finally returned home. Since the previous night, when Nicole called him, an unshakable unease had settled in his chest. A persistent sense of dread gnawed at him. So, when Lisa left the house that evening, he rushed home immediately. On the way, he stopped to buy a bouquet of white roses, which were Nicole’s favorite.As h
