บททั้งหมดของ Love Burned to Ashes: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 29

The freshness of being married left Samantha feeling a bit lost and unsure of how to navigate the shift.Matt immediately headed to the underground warehouse. As he opened the door, the thick, sticky air—blended with something unspeakable—assaulted his senses.He instinctively pressed his hand over his nose.Connor was sitting on the floor, a kiss mark still visible on his neck, an obvious reminder of the chaos that had just unfolded."What are you here for?" Connor glared at Matt, his mind clearing up a little as the fog lifted."Let them go." Matt's eyes were filled with disgust."Where's Samantha? I want to see her! If you don't let me see her, I won't leave!" Connor stubbornly refused to back down.Matt curled his lips into a slight smile. His gaze swept over Hannah with a look of revulsion. His tone was laced with an underlying meaning as he spoke. "Is this really how you want to see Samantha? Are you sure you want her to witness this filthy scene?"Connor froze, momentari

[I'll love you forever. Will you come back to me?]Connor's antics were too loud, and within half a day, he had made it to the trending list.#Reystein City's Parker heir, Connor spends a fortune to confess# #Connor goes all in for love#Samantha finished her meeting and returned to her office, rubbing her sore shoulders. When she looked up, her eyes immediately landed on the drones outside, all flying in sync to deliver a message of love.Her mouth dropped open in shock.At the same time, her phone buzzed relentlessly with messages flooding in.[What's going on with you and Connor? He's confessing his love to you! So romantic.][Samantha, you're really not dead? I saw the news, it's all over.][Heard you're married. Congratulations!]Samantha sprang out of her chair, fury boiling in her chest, and quickly strode out of the office."Connor!"She called out to him.Connor, who had been slumped by the roadside, heard her voice and looked up, his face lighting up with excite

"You're delusional," Samantha said, her voice trembling despite her effort to stay calm. "Even if I die, he won't love you. Haven't you figured out what kind of person Connor is? He's never loved anyone—not once. From beginning to end, the only person he's ever cared about is himself."Hannah faltered, just slightly. The knife in her hand didn't waver, but her grip loosened, her eyes flickering.Sensing the shift, Samantha pressed on. "And I wasn't the one who ruined you. It was Connor. After everything he's done to you, you still want to marry him? Do you really want to spend the rest of your life being tortured by that man?""No, no!" Hannah shook her head violently, her bloodshot eyes fixed on Samantha. "You're lying! You're just trying to drive a wedge between me and Connor. Don't think I don't see through you!"Samantha fell silent. There was no reasoning with her. This woman was lost.By now, Hannah had stepped in close, the blade of her knife pressing against Samantha's nec

"Relax. Make yourself comfortable. It's just the two of us tonight—I booked the whole place.""Alright." Samantha forced a smile and said nothing more.Before the food could even arrive, everything fell apart.The fire alarm suddenly blared through the quiet restaurant, sharp and jarring.Trained staff, usually calm and composed, now moved in chaos."Fire! Run!" someone shouted.Panic broke loose as people scrambled toward the exit.Matt immediately grabbed Samantha's hand and pulled her with him. "Don't be scared, it's alright. I'm here."They made it outside and stood there for a few minutes. But from where they were, there wasn't the faintest sign of a fire inside the restaurant."What the hell is going on?" Matt demanded, turning to the manager."I—I don't know, Mr. Wilson. Please don't worry, I'll send someone in to check it right away.""Hurry up."He turned his head—and froze. Samantha, who had just been behind him, was gone.It took him less than a second to real
