BOOKSDRAMA Chapter 671
Chapter 671:
As he secured the package, something caught his eye-a card tucked inside. Without hesitation, he handed it over.
Brian flipped it open, instantly recognizing Rachel's delicate, familiar handwriting.
"Brian, by the time you receive this, Jeffrey and I will already be gone. We're not missing I just want to take him on a journey, to let him see the breathtaking landscapes and beauty of our country. He doesn't have much time left. For this..."
"Final trip, I want to grant his wishes and be by his side. For the sake of what we once had, I ask that you don't come looking for us. Please, don't interfere. Also, I've signed the divorce agreement. I hope you'll respect our decision and sign it as well. When I return, I'll collect it. I trust you'll comply."
Rachel's letter was firm, leaving no room for doubt.
Brian read it in absolute silence, the weight of her words sinking deep.
He didn't say a word for the rest of the day, nor did he step outside his office. The light in his office burned through the night, untouched.
By the time Ronald arrived the next morning, Brian's office door was still tightly shut.
She had made herself clear-she didn't want any disturbances. The last thing she probably wanted was to see his name on her screen. Even knowing this, Brian couldn't stop himself. After agonizing for what felt like forever, he typed out the simplest message. "Take care." As expected, he received no reply.

The rare breaks he allowed himself were spent with Carol. Beyond that, his world revolved around relentless deadlines.
Rumors spread that his unyielding drive sent the company's stock soaring, much to the delight of shareholders. Yet, none of it brought him any satisfaction.
After all the back-and-forth, the successes and sacrifices, one truth became painfully clear he had lost the most important person in his life. Rachel's absence left a hollow space inside him.
Rachel and Jeffrey had taken the bus for one simple reason.
Tickets could be bought on board, bypassing the need for real-name registration -a quiet way to disappear.
Brian scoured the entire city the day Rachel vanished, yet there was no trace of her or Jeffrey.
They paid for everything in cash, leaving no digital trail behind.
