The rainy spring night was as cold as deep antunts.
Rowan sat on the stops at the villa entrance, letting the cold rain heat against his face, holding the video of her burning there wedding pho
She stood in the courtyard, her expression desolate, eyes moist as she looked at the camera, as if balding farewell to comeone acrore dist
and rivers
Then she lit the lighter and threw it into the bucket without hesitation.
The photos burned. The past burned.
He stared at himself in the video laughing and chatting on the phone like looking at a walking corpse
At that time, he was laughing, sending voice messages to Moira Ashenford.
His lips trembled slightly: “…Why didn’t I chase after her?”
Rainwater slid down his cheeks, mixing with hot tears.
Behind him, his Beta held an umbrella.
After a long silence, he finally heard Rowan’s command:
“The jewelry she sold – buy it all back and put it back where it belongs.”
“Yes.”
“Recreate the wedding photos from the originals, same frames, hang them back in their original positions.”
“Understood.”
The Beta said nothing more, simply agreeing to each instruction. He couldn’t interfere in the Alpha’s private affairs, but this scene didn’t surprise him at all.
He only sighed silently in his heart:
What’s sold can be bought back, what’s burned can be copied, but what about Luna’s heart?
Just then, Rowan’s phone vibrated.
He was stunned for a moment before slowly answering.
“Alpha Rowan, we’ve traced Luna’s whereabouts. Yesterday afternoon, she used her card at a mall in Singapore.”
“Singapore?” Rowan’s brow furrowed deeply. “Impossible. I found no record of her boarding any flights.”
“She took a private Gulfstream G650. We confirmed the departure records, but the plane owner’s information is classified – they won’t reveal it.”
Rowan’s expression instantly turned cold.
He hung up and strode into the wind and rain “Notify the crew, I’m flying to Singapore immediately. Also check if Garrett Wylder went there too.”
In all of New York, only Garrett Wylder could take Elara away right under his nose without a trace!
He should have thought of it earlier.
**Liara’s Peruperitve: **
Meanwhile, in Singapore.
The secretary is even more beautiful than a beauty queen”
“Manager Weber is too kind, 1 smiled politely.
He accompanied me on a tour of the entire facility, including the administration building, workshops, and cafeteria. I motfodically ventured abras various production processes, occasionally taking photos with my phone, saying I needed to bring them back for the Alpha’s references
Manager Weber cooperated with a cheerful smile.
At noon, I said I wanted to experience the employee cafeteria.
I queued with regular employees for lunch and deliberately sat beside several female workers.
“I heard this place is… haunted?” 1 deliberately lowered my voice.
“Where did you hear that?” One worker looked shocked.
“The executives at headquarters mentioned it.” I took a bite of vegetables, speaking casually. “They said there are two people who clock in daily, box no one has ever seen them.”
They froze, complex expressions crossing their faces – confusion mixed with panic.
“Are they… one named Chloe and one named Hannah?” The oldest worker finally spoke.
My eyes lit up. “So you do know about them.”
“I’m a longtime employee. Those two arrived recently, but the problem is – no one has actually seen them.”
She paused, her tone tightening slightly. “At first, no one paid attention – everyone’s exhausted like dogs. Later, someone thought back and realized no one had actually encountered those two.”
“Did you ask the supervisor?”
“We did. The workshop director told us to ‘mind our own business.”
Another worker, chewing her chopsticks, suddenly said: “Then who’s doing the clocking in? Ghosts?”
“Maybe someone died? Haven’t you heard? Things people did day after day before death, they repeat after death too.”
I said nothing, but the recording device in my bag was quietly capturing every word.
That afternoon, I called the workshop director, HR, finance, and Manager Weber to the office.
I smiled at them: “I’d like to meet Chloe and Hannah.”
Several people froze.
The workshop director walked to the door and locked it with a “bang.”
