Chapter 31
The next morning, just before the door was about to open, Bryce instinctively hid in the nearby bushes.
Through the lush bushes, he saw Antonio holding an umbrella, protecting Grace in his arms, not a drop of rain falling on her.
The smile on her face was indescribably sweet, as she nestled tightly in Antonio’s arms. The atmosphere between the two of them was impenetrable by anyone.
A strong sense of inferiority engulfed his whole body, making him feel unworthy.
It was not until a long time after the two of them had left in the car that Bryce emerged from the bushes.
I didn’t know if the moisture at the corner of my eyes was tears or rainwater.

The rain washed away the fallen leaves from his body as if he had never been there.
In the evening, Grace returned home and saw a box of jade bracelets at the door.
There was a sticky note on top of the box, with lively and flamboyant writing:
“Sorry, this is an apology. If I could do it again, I would take a picture of your parents‘ belongings for you. I wish you happiness in the future, and I won’t bother you anymore.” – Bryce
Chapter 21
Upon seeing this sentence, Grace remained silent for a long time but eventually accepted the box of jade bracelets.
Then, looking at Antonio, he urged, “Why haven’t you opened the door yet?”
After the two of them entered, the door closed again.
Bryce in the bushes was already in tears.
“Is it only by using this method that I can apologize to you?”
“But, the first half of the sentence is true, and the second half is false.”
“Grace, I couldn’t let go, I couldn’t sincerely wish you well. But… if this. can make you happy, I’m willing to do so.”
He murmured, his words dissipating in the wind, only audible to himself.
Having loved her for so many years, how is it possible to let go with just a casual remark?
In the past, his love for her was true, but the wrongdoings he committed. and the harm he caused her were also true.
He couldn’t make her forgive him, so he could only seek peace of mind in this humble way.
Finally, even Bryce himself didn’t know how he had left.
When he got back home, he packed his luggage and prepared everything. As he was about to step out of the house, he was stopped by Alden.
“Bryce, where were you going?”
Alden furrowed his brow and asked, puzzled.

Bryce looked indifferent and said, “I’m going to the club, planning to have closed training to prepare for the next game.”
“I no longer had the advantage of age in the competition, and to win in the next competition, I needed to strengthen my training.”
Afterward, he carried his suitcase and walked out, never to turn back.
again.
Alden was stunned, feeling inexplicably that the whole house had become much quieter.
There was still something I didn’t have time to say to Bryce, and he got in the departing car.
Looking at the evidence collected in his hand, Alden’s face instantly darkened, and he felt a suppressed aura surrounding him.
He stepped into the house, and the next second, a fragile body pressed against him.
Suddenly, his expression cooled imperceptibly, and he skillfully avoided. Arianna’s hand without leaving a trace.
“Alden, Bryce suddenly wanted to leave, I couldn’t stop him. I hope nothing has happened to him, right?”
Watching her feigned worried expression, Alden’s eyes grew deep and fixed as he tried to see through the depths of her innermost thoughts.
At this moment, Drake emerged from behind Alden, his slender fingers casually playing with his phone.
“Worried about Bryce? Why don’t you first worry about yourself?”
“What?”
