Chapter 8
This is their shares home, but most of the time it was her who took care of it, and she managed everything in an orderly manner.
There were housekeepers and servants in the villa, but she still personally took care of the flowers and plants, and installed a lammpton the rooftop terrace.
She said that it was specifically installed for him
He would always see a light on for him at home when he got ott work in the evening
Stanley pushed the door open and found that the atmosphere at home remained warm and peaceful, just like before
He looked at the flower bed and involuntarily imagined karissa vutting a few branches of dewy tuses and placing them in a vase in the living room
The years were truly indescribably peaceful
Stanley walked quietly through the hallway, wanting to surprise karissa, but he couldn’t find her anywhere on the first floor. He furrowed his brow and went to ask the servant wiwwas working shiligently. “Where is Mrs.?
The servants immediately stopped their work and looked at each other in suprise for a while
Stanley grew impatient and said, “Where did Karissa pa?”
“We didn’t know either. Madam seemed to have left in the afternoon, saying, she was i
poling to the mountaintop to watch the stars,”
Stanley instantly became angry: “What time is it already? You all don’t even know it she has come back home?!”
The other party could no longer pretend to be deat and dunnb, so they had to grit their teeth and say, “Maslany said that we don’t have to wait for her anwmore, we can rest after finishing the work ourselves…”
The others nodded in unison, seemingly pennely maware of Karissa’s whereabouts.
Stanley immediately became dissatisfied with the household servants and wished he could imminediately dismiss a group of them who were not working dilipatly.
But he was determined to see Karissa, to have a chat with her about how to celebrate tonwrrow’s anniversary, so he quickly went upstairs and headed straight to the bedroom
“Karissa!” he exclaimed, pushing open the door and finding nothing but an empty room.
There was no one in the one–and–a–halt room. A gust of wind blew through the hallway, and only the curtain by the French window swayed in the wind. As it brushed against the edge of the glass, it made a rustling sound.
Stanley’s heart tightened, just at the moment when he was most puzzled and contuseid, he suddenly caught sight of something extra on the bedside table.
A delicate box
that Karissa prepared for him?
Wasn’t this the five year anniversary gift i
Stanley walked over with a confused mind, only to discover that there was an envelope pressed under the box.
After he read the signature above, his heart suddenly trembled, and then a sense of foreboding occupied his entire chest.
This is what Karissa left for ham.
They were a nutried couple, having each other’s phone numbers and WhatsApp. If there was something they needed to intermeach other about, there were faster methods available. What kind of matter would be so cautions to use such an old fashioned way?
It was probably a surprise from Karissa, yes, it must have been like that…
With this thought in mind, Stanley picked up the envelope with trembling hands, which had started shaking at some point unknown to him Inside, there was only a thin sheet of paper, and the contents could be easily seen once unfolded.
Kanica’s handwriting was as elegant and neat Calways, clearly written in a calm and composed state of mind: “Stanley, I don’t know
i you will receive this better
eally matter if I can’t see it.
It doesn’t really
Because I had already left your world.
I knew about you and Monique, and I also said that it you betrayed me, I would disappear forever
Soon, you will know that I keep my word.
Karissa found out about his affair with Monique.
How could she have known?!
Monique had always promised to keep it a secret, even though he had been hiding
Which link exactly went wrong?!
At this moment, Stanley’s phone rang
g it so well
“Hello, is this Stanley? We are the police. Someone found your wife’s blood–stained clothes in the valley. We suspect that your wife may have fallen to her death from the top of the mountain. Could you please come to the police station to identify the deceased’s belongings?”
