Chapter 1617

Stella promised Taya that she would video chat with her every day, but on the 29th day, Stella didn’t

answer any calls.

Taya held her phone with a black screen, feeling increasingly uneasy and realizing that something was

wrong. Eric seemed to have set a deadline for a month…

She quickly left the study and went to find Griffon, only to see him answering a phone call with a

serious expression she had never seen before. She hesitated to approach, afraid of hearing bad news.

She stopped in her tracks, silently watching his tall figure.

“No matter what, you can’t give up, keep saving people,” Griffon instructed, hanging up the phone and

turning to look at Taya. He noticed the nervous and fearful emotions in her eyes and furrowed his

brows slightly.

“Is something wrong with Stella?” Taya stepped on the soft carpet, slowly walking towards Griffon. As

she got closer, she could see the regretful emotions in the man’s eyes more clearly.

Griffon didn’t want Taya to worry, but she would eventually find out about this matter. After a moment of

hesitation, he nodded gently.

“She committed suicide.”

The local police in Panama called and said that after Stella confessed and sent a message, she chose

to shoot herself. By the time they arrived, she had already lost too much blood and showed no signs of

life.

Griffon didn’t want to give up and insisted that the local police continue to try to save her, but even the

bullet pierced through the glass of the landing window, making it impossible to save her.

When Taya heard that Stella had committed suicide, her petite body suddenly stiffened in place. Even

her feet on the carpet felt cold, as if she had been placed in an ice cave and couldn’t feel the outside

temperature. It was so cold…

Griffon quickly reached out and pulled her into his embrace. His large, comforting hands gently stroked

her back.

“This was Stella’s choice.”

It was her choice, and no one could stop it, including Taya, who had tried her best to warm Stella.

Because from the beginning, they had misunderstood one thing: Stella still loved Eric. It was because

of that love that Stella felt life was unbearable and ultimately chose death.

If they had known from the beginning that Stella still loved Eric, they might have had a chance to save

her. But there were no “ifs.” Stella’s actions from start to finish showed that she no longer loved Eric.

Taya, leaning against Griffon, tightly grasped his shirt as a wave

of self-blame, regret, and heartache overwhelmed her, causing her tears to burst out uncontrollably.

If she had gone with Stella to the free clinic, Stella wouldn’t have had the time to do something foolish,

and Taya wouldn’t have had to hear about her suicide….

But Stella, she loved Eric so much. She loved him to the point that she didn’t even show a hint of grief

or anger after his death. She simply arranged everything calmly and then went to Panama to fulfill

Eric’s last wish, to be buried together with him.

At the moment when Taya’s tears fell, she finally understood the meaning of the 29 days. But why

didn’t she guess it earlier? It was because she thought that Stella didn’t love.

They all thought that, including Harper and Andre. Everyone around Stella thought she didn’t love Eric,

and some even hated him so much that they wished he would die.

Stella pretended very well, deceiving everyone, including herself. Because of this, even Eric thought

before his death that Stella didn’t love him…

Taya couldn’t perceive what Stella felt when she realized this, but she could only feel the regret in this

emotion.

The kind of regret that made her want to cry every time she thought about it. To think that someone Eric

believed Stella didn’t love him anymore, and died in such a tragic way. And to think that Stella

pretended not to love Eric anymore, and died in such a miserable way.

But they had never truly loved each other during their lives. Even during the few years they were

together, Stella deceived Eric without a trace of sincerity. So how could they not feel regret?
