All Chapters of How to Say Our Final Goodbye: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The luxury car sped down the highway. Henry glanced at Ava in the passenger seat through the rearview mirror, then leaned close to Lena’s ear, lowering his voice.“Lenny, why did you want to bring her along?”Lena noticed his furrowed brow. Whenever he spoke of Ava, his face carried that same old look of impatience, as though he genuinely loathed her very existence.He was certainly a great actor. He was so good that he had successfully blinded her for three whole years in her past life. It was not until she stumbled upon that two-year-old child on the street that she realized their relationship had been broken all along.Lena lowered her gaze, her voice flat. “Don’t you always complain about how clingy she is? I want her to see that you’re marrying me, and maybe then she’ll finally give up.”A look of unease crossed Henry’s face for a split second. His lips parted as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he let the explanation slide.Once they arrived, Henry led Lena in

Lena found herself taken aback. Watching the comfortable, familiar way Ava was laughing and chatting with Henry’s friends, it was obvious that this was not her first time hanging out with them.When exactly had Henry brought her into his inner circle? Lena had not suspected a single thing. When those exact friends used to welcome her into their circle, had they all been secretly mocking her, laughing at how completely oblivious she was to her fiancé’s straying affection?Her fingernails dug deeply into her palms as she stared fixedly at the scene inside the private room. They were currently playing Truth or Dare, and the spinning liquor bottle came to a steady halt right in front of Ava. The dare written on the card seemed to make Ava uncomfortable, and the surrounding crowd immediately started chanting for her to take a penalty shot instead.Ava blinked her tear-filled eyes at Henry. Without any hesitation, Henry grabbed the glass of liquor from the table and downed it. Setting the

Early the next morning, Lena was taken away by Henry’s men. She struggled with all her might, but her resistance only earned her a tighter, more painful grip. Before she could even shout for help a second time, a sharp blow struck the back of her neck, and the world went black.When she finally regained consciousness, she was surrounded by pitch darkness. Fists rained down on her body. The dull thuds of the blows mixed with her stifled groans of agony, and the pain was unbearable.Panic washed over Lena, and she could not help but scream out, “Who are you people? Why did you kidnap me?”The only response she received was an even more brutal beating. When the sickening crack of a dislocated bone echoed in her ears, Lena’s vision went white, and cold sweat instantly drenched her clothes. By the time the two-hour torture session finally ended, she was slumped on the freezing ground, too weak to even move a finger. Just then, someone kicked her in the side. As she curled up in pain, s

Lena sat alone on the bench in the police station, wrapped in a jacket a female officer had handed her, her body still trembling uncontrollably. Not far away, a few thugs were crouching in the corner, getting aggressively chewed out by a police officer.When Henry rushed into the station, his eyes immediately fell on Lena’s disheveled state. The cut on her hand was still oozing blood, her right ankle was swollen, and her dress was stained with dirt and grass blades. Frowning, he walked over quickly and bent down in front of her.“Lenny, what happened? Did you get into trouble again?”When he received the call from the station, he did not even listen to the full details before racing over in a panic.Lena raised her eyes, her gaze hollow. If she had not managed to grab her phone off the ground while fighting for her life, and if a passing patrol car had not happened to spot her, she probably would not have made it through. Yet, Henry’s very first reaction was to assume she had cause

Henry stayed in Malkovia for two days, using his connections to secure a VIP pass to the auction house. At precisely eight-thirty that evening, he made his entrance. Dressed in a black suit, he stood tall and carried himself with composure. Several socialites stepped up to flirt with him, but he merely raised his hand, flashing the ring on his middle finger. “Sorry,” he said flatly. “I’m engaged.”Seeing that, the socialites could only slink away in disappointment.When the sapphire necklace was finally brought onto the stage, the entire room erupted. The natural sapphire was crystal clear and free of any impurities. Bidding quickly escalated into a frenzy, driving the price sky-high.Henry sat calmly in the upper tier, waiting until the bidding finally began to slow before leisurely raising his paddle.“One billion!”The room instantly fell silent. In the end, Henry got exactly what he wanted, taking home the necklace for the staggering price of one billion dollars.Grant had
