All Chapters of Love Like Seafoam: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Camille Ellery walked toward Stellan Loxley, one step at a time. She lifted her chin and asked, "What do you think? Should I make things official with him?"Beneath her deliberately cool tone was a hint of unmistakable curiosity and anticipation.Stellan's eyes reddened. His expression remained cold and defiant. "It's up to you. Maybe a shallow man would be tempted by your money, but not me!""Is that so?" Camille grabbed his wrist and let out a cold laugh. "If it weren't for money, would the once-proud Mr. Loxley be working as a waiter here?"Stellan jerked his hand free, disgust written all over his face. "No matter how far I fall, I'll never beg you for anything! I quit! Happy now?"Camille stared as he walked away without even a glance back, the sight reopening an old wound."Don't flatter yourself, Stellan. Even if you begged me, I'd never help a shallow man like you!"…That night, when Camille shoved Ansel Wells onto the bed and roughly tore open his clothes, showing him

Ansel didn't know how much time had passed before the sounds from inside the bedroom finally quieted down, like the tide receding from shore.Stellan emerged, shirtless, his body covered in scratches and love bites. He raised an eyebrow as he studied Ansel, who had only just gathered himself and was preparing to leave."Camille, how do you even know a merman?""I just picked him up by chance. After you went abroad, I went out to sea from time to time and returned to the spot where you saved me back then. I guess you could call it a form of self-torture. Luckily, I have you back now."While that memory filled Camille's eyes with deep affection, Stellan seemed reluctant to talk about it. For a brief second, a flicker of guilt passed through his eyes. He chuckled and changed the subject."Aren't all merfolk supposed to have beautiful voices regardless of whether they're male or female? How come the one you picked up sounds so raspy?""Who knows?" Camille answered with a shrug."The

Camille started to regret her decision.As she watched more and more sharks gather, all she wanted to do was jump into the water herself."Camille, don't do anything rash," Stellan said as he pulled her back, his voice soft and gentle. "He's a merman. The sharks are his friends. He'll be fine."His melodious voice seemed to echo from somewhere deep in her memories. After a moment's hesitation, she decided to listen to Stellan.But those sharks weren't Ansel's friends at all.Facing the bloodthirsty predators, he had no choice but to swim deeper into the sea, hoping to find a cave where he could hide. Wanting to swim faster so he could escape as quickly as possible, he endured the excruciating pain and transformed his legs into his tail.But the sharks were too fast, and they pursued him relentlessly.Just as they were about to catch up to him, faint glimmers of light appeared ahead. A pod of whales emerged, shielding him from the sharks.And behind the whales… were none other t

Camille barely considered it before refusing outright.Stellan's face fell."I knew your feelings for me weren't that sincere. In that case, why did you go to all that trouble to win me back? Don't worry. Even if I end up disfigured, I won't beg you for anything ever again."His voice trembled ever so slightly, and Camille's heart softened instantly. After a long moment's hesitation, she turned to Ansel."If my wish were for you to cut off some of your flesh to heal Stellan's wounds, would you be willing to do it?" she asked carefully. "If you aren't—""I'm willing."Ansel's voice was calm, his tone as calm as a stagnant pool of water."As long as it's your wish, I'm willing."This would be the 1,000th wish. He was on the verge of clearing his debt, but the heart that had once overflowed with love had long since been filled with nothing but pain and disappointment.Ansel picked up the knife and began slicing off pieces of his own flesh, one cut at a time. He was even grateful

Shortly after Camille left, Ansel got up to prepare for his own departure. He needed to retrieve his soul and return home.Once he walked out that door, he would never come back.However, the moment he opened the bedroom door, he found Stellan standing outside with a group of bodyguards, blocking his way.Stellan's expression was sinister, and his gaze was chilling to the extreme."Ansel Wells, did you save a girl who fell into the ocean ten years ago?""How did you know that?"The moment the words left his mouth, Ansel regretted them. Even after three years, he still hadn't learned to keep things to himself the way humans did.The first time he surfaced hadn't been when he was 18 years old, but when he was 11. Back then, he'd encountered a young girl who had fallen off a ship's deck.He was the one who pulled her to shore, and when he realized she was unconscious, he'd performed CPR and kept singing softly into her ear.Later, when he saw people approaching from the shore and
