Chapter 0056
Hansel burst into his bedroom and flung the closet doors open like a madman. Then, he rushed to Miranda’s walk–in closet.
All the designer bags, clothes, watches, and jewelry he had gifted her were neatly arranged inside. Not a single item was missing.
Hansel’s gaze landed on a cherry quartz bracelet. His breath quickened, and a dangerous glint appeared in his eyes.
He clearly remembered that it was a birthday gift he;d brought back. from abroad for Miranda during their third year together.
Cherry sounded like the word, “cherish“. This gift was a reminder to Miranda that she was the most cherished person in his life. Back then, she’d loved the bracelet dearly and had worn it all the time.
And yet, she’d even left the bracelet behind, as if she’d abandoned her love for him along with it.
Hansel sank onto the edge of the bed. He suddenly realized that Miranda wasn’t throwing a tantrum. She truly meant every word she’d said. This time, she was really serious about breaking up with him.
Suddenly, Martha heard a loud crash. Startled, she quickly ran upstairs.
As she reached the entrance of the walk–in closet, she ran into Hansel, who stormed past her. His expression was dark and foreboding.
“Mr. Johnson…” Martha called out. She wanted to ask what had happened, but he didn’t even spare her a glance as he walked away.
Martha turned her head and gasped in shock. The walk–in closet was a complete mess.
The expensive jewelry cabinet had been smashed to smithereens, new clothes with tags still attached to them were strewn everywhere, and
the bohemian rug had been ripped to pieces.
Martha recalled how she’d just cleaned the kitchen and disposed of a
pot of spoiled soup, and now she had to clear away the wreckage in the bedroom.
She could only sigh. The life of a hired help was truly a tough one!
The club was filled with psychedelic lights and scantily clad young people dancing to tacky numbers in the center of the stage. Hansel sat in a corner, drinking alone.
He ordered a bottle of whiskey and downed large gulps one after another. He didn’t seem to be enjoying the drink but more like venting his frustrations.
