I turned quickly, discreetly wiping them away. Grayson grabbed my arm suddenly. "Alicia… she…" His face was full of shock, his pupils contracting as if he had seen something he couldn't comprehend. I seized the moment to pull away, my voice calm but final. "We're leaving. Goodbye, Mr. Ulrich." That was our last goodbye. That day, I took the passports I had prepared long ago, packed our bags, and booked tickets to Furlance. We didn't speak of Grayson again. Alicia even pretended lightly, talking about emailing M

Every second I spent with her, I treated her as if she were the eighteen-year-old you. At those words, my heart stirred nothing at all. He stepped forward, trying to say more, but Julian stopped him. Julian bent down and swept me up into his arms. My white wedding gown trailed along the floor as he looked down at Adrian from above. "Sorry. I'm whisking my bride away." Adrian could only stand there and watch as I was carried away. The media rushed after us, and the wedding venue emptied out in an instant.

"You and Elroy were never friends. You've been rivals forever. Watching him fall apart—it made you happy, didn't it?" He dropped the act. Smirked. "Yeah. It did. Oh—and he's dead. Thought you should know. You're sharp, Celine. I wish you happiness." My pen hovered. Ink bled into the page. I tore it up, tossed it out. "Happiness isn't for me." I'd had it once. Look where that got me. He gave a soft laugh. "Goodbye. I hope you find freedom." This time, I nodded. Freedom—that, I could want.

I stopped at the table in the leaving room. “Goodbye Mr. Graham and Ethan graham” I whispered as I dropped the divorce papers and the severance papers on the table. I cleaned the last trail of tears on my face and walked towards the door, as I opened it I could feel my expression shift to annoyance. “You ungrateful brat”

“You didn’t tell me Martins will be here.” Adaobi just smiled mischievously and shrugged, trying not to laugh. “Surprise, maybe?” Before Amara could respond, the music stopped abruptly. The crowd turned toward the stage as the red cloth that covered one side of the wall suddenly lifted, revealing a giant inscription in golden letters: WILL YOU MARRY ME, DEAR AMARA?

He didn't give you a hard time?" Ryan replied with an innocent emoji: "No idea, lol. Maybe he's running the family business." I scrolled through the post, expressionless, and backed out. Another message from Claire came through.

Thankfully, every item that followed ended up with me, and the gloom weighing on me finally lifted. The biggest surprise was the final necklace. Jonathan had personally crafted it for my 21st birthday, and it had been lost years ago during a territorial clash. I no longer loved him, but that necklace carried too many memories. Kelsey seemed to know its history. She bid aggressively, attempting to price me out of the room. She was convinced Jonathan wouldn't spend that much on me. After the auction ended, Jonathan and I were led to finalize the purchases. Halfway there, the manager hurried over and pulled him aside.
