Semua Bab Farewell to Love, Farewell to Us: Bab 1 - Bab 8

Winnie Jewel's POVAfter receiving my aunt, Gianna Jewel's, affirmative reply, I intended to leave, but my feet remained rooted to the spot outside the hospital room, refusing to budge.Inside, mocking voices continued.Caleb Smith's best friend, Kevin Baker, bragged, "Vivian, you don't know the full history of our pranks yet, do you? Let me fill you in now."The first April Fool's Day after Winnie returned to the family, we tricked her into believing that Caleb's company was going bankrupt and desperately needed three million dollars. She drained her entire savings and even took out a bank loan to cover it. Caleb later used that money to buy you a dress."The second year, we prepared the ugliest dress imaginable and told her that Caleb wanted her to wear it to a gala. She actually showed up in it. Thinking back on how everyone laughed at her still cracks me up."Kevin laughed and continued down the list. "The third year, we told her that Caleb was exhausted from courting her and

Winnie Jewel's POVEver since I gave Caleb the cold shoulder yesterday, he had been taking me everywhere with him—even to the bachelor party Kevin threw for him.The moment we stepped into the private room, my eyes immediately locked onto Kevin—the same jerk who had been maniacally laughing at me in the hospital room. Yet there he was, greeting me as if nothing had happened."Hey there, future Mrs. Smith!"Before I could respond, the door swung open again. It was Vivian, walking in with a young man.I clearly saw the malice flash in Caleb's eyes the moment they landed on the young man. His grip tightened around the whiskey glass, threatening to shatter it.Caleb couldn't contain himself for even a second. "Vivi, why did you bring a stranger here?"I had no interest in watching their drama unfold, so I excused myself to the restroom. To my surprise, Vivian followed me.The moment she caught up, a smug look spread across her face. "Winnie, guess where Uncle Caleb took me the othe

Caleb Smith's POVI couldn't put into words the turmoil I felt on the drive back to the villa. It wasn't until I opened the door that I realized that the place was completely empty.The wedding decals had been stripped from the walls, leaving the stark white paint looking even more barren.I called my assistant and ordered him to track Winnie's location. When I learned she was in Ironden, I hurled my phone across the room.My eyes drifted to the table. A note and a bank card that the bridal stylist had handed me earlier sat there.The bank card held ten million dollars. It seemed that this was her way of settling the score for the kindness I'd shown her all these years. The note, however, bore only one line in her handwriting: "Caleb, I wish you and Vivian a happy marriage."I crumpled the note in my hand, then booked a flight to Ironden.During the entire ten-hour flight, I didn't close my eyes once.My mind was a tangled mess, scene after scene flashing before me—the genuine

Caleb Smith's POVWhen Winnie first returned to the Jewel family, she followed Vivi's lead and called me "Mr. Smith".But once she realized her feelings for me, she only called me by my first name.So when she used that title again, she was trying to tell me that our relationship was finally, truly over.I immediately understood. That address had drained the color from my face. I lifted my hand to reach for her again, but in the end, I let it drop.I stood there, watching her disappear into the distance, until a single tear slid down my cheek and hit the floor.That was when Vivi stepped out from the shadows.She clung to my arm, her face wearing a mask of hurt innocence. "Caleb, aren't I the one you love? You pulled all those pranks on Winnie because of me. You planned this entire wedding for me. I'm the only one who's supposed to be your wife."I shoved her away, and my brows furrowed. "I never once told you that I loved you. The only woman who will ever be my wife is Winnie.
