Fake heiress Real heroine

Chapter 161 The three of them quickly hopped on the plane to head back.

Years ago, Gregory had passed away here while getting treatment. His parents believed his spirit still lingered in this place, so every summer, they would return to stay for a while. Elsa, Gregory's girlfriend, calong, even though he had already passed.

When they arrived at the hotel, Calvin remembered how Gregory's parents looked so heartbroken outside the police station carlier. He asked Quinlyn to go upstairs and call Elsa for him. He needed to talk to her.

Since Quinlyn had already agreed to help, she didn't mind going through the trouble. She nodded, quickly got out of the car, and went inside. She asked the front desk to call Elsa's room, but no one answered.

"Sorry, our manager just knocked on her door, but there was no answer. Letcheck the security footage for you, Ms. Yates," the staff member said.

The hotel had business ties with Zhao Shi, so the staff was very efficient. In just a few minutes, they discovered Elsa had left the lobby about fifteen minutes ago.

"The other guest in a different room is still here. She seemed a bit unwell, and not long ago, she cdown to ask where the nearest pharmacy was. If you'd like, we can check with her about Ms. Yates," the staff member offered.

Quinlyn shook her head and walked back to the car, her brow furrowing deeper.

"She's not here. We can wait. What's wrong?" Jolie asked, noticing something was off with Quinlyn.

"It's not right." Quinlyn felt uneasy. She stared at the hotel from the car window. "She comes here every year with Gregory's parents. She should have been by his mom's side, especially if she was sick. But now, she's gone." Jolie instinctively replied, "Maybe she went out for something." "She's not from here." Quinlyn pointed out the key issue.

Elsa only chere because of Gregory. She didn't have any family or friends here, and there was no work reason for her to be around. So, her leaving like this felt really strange.

Jolie began to sense something was wrong, too. "She has a history of depression. We should call Bennett to help find her." They couldn't file a missing person report yet, since it hadn't been twenty-four hours, so now they had to use their connections.

Quinlyn was about to pull out her phone when Calvin, looking pale, said, “I think I know where she is." The car sped up again, heading straight for Broadpeace Bridge in the city.

After having frequent nightmares, Calvin often cto this bridge, standing by the big stone that said "Broadpeace Bridge" and staying there for hours.

When his parents asked him what he was doing, he'd just say he was waiting for someone. He couldn't remember clearly who he was waiting for and why he went there.

It wasn't until recently when he dreamed of Elsa that the memories of the bridge flooded back.

Calvin said, "In my dream, I was diagnosed with cancer back then. It was already at the terminal stage with no cure. I struggled a lot, but eventually, I accepted it and decided to wait for death at the hospital.

Calvin choked up, his voice thick with pain. His heart, still in one piece, ached as if it was breaking again. He bent over, durching his chest with tears rolling down his face.

He said, "I didn't know what to do. All I felt was pain. If fate wouldn't let us be together, then why did it let us meet in the first place? It's so unfair to her Quinlyn didn't fully understand the love and heartbreak between adults, but she could clearly see his small and hunched back. A heart that wasn't even originally his, and yet, it had to endure so much pain that someone his age shouldn't have to carry, "I see her! Over there. Oh, my God," Jolie suddenly shouted, pointing at the bridge railing ahead, her face filled with shock.

Quinlyn turned to look, and there she was-Elsa, wearing a white dress with her long hair trailing behind her. She had already climbed over the railing. She was standing there, screaming something in desperation.

With a screeching sound, the car slammed to a stop, and everyone rushed toward her in a hurry.

The wind on the bridge was strong, but Elsa's screams were louder. "Gregory, can you hear me? If it's really you, then cback to me. I don't want any substitute. I just want you. That boy is not you!" They had ten years of love from their youth to the promise of growing old together. Elsa had even grown her hair long just for him. Now, her hair reached her waist, but he was gone.

He had died the year he was accepted into the PhD program. She had even found the ring he'd been planning to give her. It was supposed to be a surprise to go with the acceptance letter.

But after learning he had cancer, he had hidden everything away at the bottom of a box.

If Elsa hadn't missed him so much or hadn't gone through every book in his room, she might never have discovered his plan.

The ring was hidden in a poetry book in the corner, and on the page where the ring was tucked, there was a love poem. He had once praised it, saying, "If we ever get married, I want to use this as my vow." But everything had been ready, and fate had unfairly taken him away.

"Gregory!" Elsa's tears streamed down her face. Through the distant mountains and sea, the howling wind seemed to call out to slost soul, as if summoning someone who was lost, and in her despair and pain, she leaped forward.

Behind her, Jolie, who had lagged a bit behind, let out a scream.

"Elsa!" Calvin and Quinlyn, who had rushed forward to the railing, were too tall to get through the gap. They could barely grab hold of her clothes.

Quinlyn's heart skipped a beat, and her breath caught in her chest.

The next second, two strong bodyguards grabbed Elsa by the arms, pulling her up forcefully. With their help, Elsa's attempt to end her life was stopped.

A few seconds later, Elsa was back on the ground. Calvin opened his arms and hugged her tightly.

He said, "I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have shown up. It's all my fault. Don't do this. Don't let yourself fall apart.

It's not real. It doesn't count. Please don't jump, okay?"

Calvin cried harder than she did. At that moment, he finally understood that living could be more painful than dying, and he regretted so much rushing over to find her. 019 He duwde Curry we under kaxe ben bulding om ber Maybe she could start a new life without fúm.
