All Chapters of To Love is To Let Go: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The counselor lit up instantly. "That's wonderful, Bella. I'm proud of you. This country needs more young people like you, who are willing to give of themselves. But the program is tough. Remote locations, difficult conditions. Will your uncle even agree to let you go? He's always been so protective of you."Bella tightened her grip on the phone. Her voice came out steady, no room for doubt. "I don't need his permission. I can decide for myself."The moment she ended the call, the strength drained from her. Her legs felt weak. She wanted to lean against the wall and catch her breath.But when she stepped back, she collided with a firm chest.Startled, Bella's body tensed. Seth frowned."Who were you on the phone with? What were you talking about joining?"Bella hesitated, then replied calmly, "Oh. A teacher asked if I wanted to join a school club."Seth didn't press her. Instead, his tone shifted, firm and impersonal. "The surgery is scheduled for next week. In the meantime, I'm

Bella lowered her gaze and gave a quiet smile, masking the scorn and bitterness in her eyes."Uncle, I really don't love you anymore. You don't have to humiliate me like this."With that, she turned and walked out of the villa, leaving Seth frozen where he stood.She took a cab to campus—there were still documents left to fill out for the Caledon Volunteer Program. After submitting the last form, she stepped out of the office and suddenly felt countless eyes turning in her direction. There were murmurs, snickers, and unmistakable ridicule in the air."Oh my god, is that real? Rich people are wild.""The more proper they look, the freakier they are in private.""I've already got the novel title in mind—The Tycoon's Kept Canary."Still clueless, Bella was pulled aside by a panicked dormmate."Bella, check the trending list—now!"She took out her phone. Right at the top, a headline jumped out at her: [Rogen Heir's Forbidden Love Exposed!]Her fingers trembled as she tapped the l

Not long after they returned from the hospital, Seth received a call from the auction house.When he told Faye, she lit up with excitement and ran back to her room to pick out clothes.After a moment, he looked over at Bella, sitting quietly on the couch. He said, "You can come too. Consider it a favor, since you donated blood to Faye."Bella opened her mouth to refuse, but he was already walking back to his room. He hadn't left her space to answer.…At the auction, Seth didn't hesitate. Anything that caught Faye's interest, he raised his paddle and bought.Bella sat still beside them the entire time, her expression vacant and disinterested. She didn't raise her paddle once.Then, a hush swept through the room as a new item was brought out—an exquisite jewelry set of rare value. Gasps rippled through the audience.Faye leaned in, her voice soft and coaxing, "Seth, I want to wear that on our wedding day. It'll be the perfect moment."Without a second thought, Seth raised his

The wind howled outside the window, its force enough to make Faye shrink deeper under the covers.Seth noticed and immediately got up to shut the window. As the wind swirled outside, wild and untamed, a sudden image flashed through his mind—Bella.She had looked so fragile today, like a wisp of smoke that the wind could carry away without effort. Just looking at her, he could almost feel her pain.If he had chosen to give her the anesthesia back then, would she have been spared that agony?The thought made Seth lift a hand to his forehead, trying to silence it.No—if he had chosen Bella, then the one enduring the pain would've been Faye. She had feared pain since she was a child. Bella would understand. She had to understand.With that conclusion settling in his chest, Seth turned toward Faye and looked at her with a softness in his eyes. Then he leaned down and pressed a long, silent kiss to her forehead.…Five days later, Faye was discharged from the hospital.It wasn't unt

On the massive screen above the altar, a video began to play—intimate, explicit footage of a man and a woman tangled together. But it wasn't just anyone. The woman in the video was the bride herself—Faye.In the video, she looked nothing like the demure, obedient woman she always was before Seth. She was bold, wild and unrestrained. And as the footage kept rolling, it became increasingly clear: the male partner was different in every clip, but the woman never changed.Seth stared, stunned. He couldn't reconcile what he was seeing with the woman he thought he knew. Faye had always claimed she was saving herself for their wedding night. Now, all he could do was question everything—was this truly Faye?Gasps rippled through the wedding guests. Some began filming the scene with their phones. Faye, realizing what was happening, grabbed Seth's hand in panic."Seth, those videos were doctored, I swear! You have to believe me—I would never do something so filthy."Before he could respond,
