Five Years of Marriage to Mr. Bradford (by Koi Fish) novel Chapter 535

While Rebecca was leaping and soaring like a graceful deer on the Edinburgh stage, Vance sat in a hospital room in Paris, watching the performance videos.

She was so beautiful and talented. In the videos, she looked exactly like the lively, sprite–like girl she had been in high school.

This was who she truly was and who she was always meant to be. She wasn’t a bird with broken wings or a caged canary. She had always been a forest elf–light, agile, vibrant, and full of life.

The moment she appeared beside an ordinary man like him, she lit up his world. He watched the videos over and over, asking himself again and again, “Vance Bradford, how could you have brought yourself to hurt such a beautiful elf?”

Now the elf had flown back to the forest and would never return to him. Yet somehow, he felt that it was right.

“May you fly toward what you love, without hesitation or doubt. May your heart lead you across boundless starry skies,” he muttered.

Anna walked in with a stern expression. Ever since the night he had been injured, her face had remained tight with disapproval

“Mr. Bradford, you cannot let yourself get hurt and bleed again!”

He put his phone away obediently.

“I understand.”

“You had internal bleeding!”

“It’s stopped now, hasn’t it?”

“The doctor said there can’t be a next time. Really, there can’t.”

He smiled again and showed her the phone.

“Look how beautiful she is. It’s a shame I couldn’t see it live.”

“So what? She’s not yours anymore.”

He gazed at the woman on the screen and smiled.

“But I’m still proud of her.”

“Wait, why is she dancing the female lead? Didn’t they have another dancer?”

“Yeah, I was wondering the same thing. Why wasn’t it Willow? And the understudy took the male lead’s role. Look.”

“Indeed… Did they fight?”

Vance thought about Desmond’s recent behavior and shook his head.

When Rebecca returned from Edinburgh to Paris, Gabriel came to pick her up personally.

The entire dance troupe was on the same flight, including Willow and Desmond. The two of them had flown over on a separate flight but were returning on the same one as everyone else.

Gabriel had brought a whole fleet of cars to pick them up. He also arranged a celebration party to lighten up the mood.

Desmond walked at the back of the group, his eyes fixed longingly on Rebecca, who was walking in front with Gabriel’s arm around her shoulders.
