Farewell to Love: The CEO's Desperate Chase novel Chapter 21

She had already made up her mind—she was ready to let him go.

Sophia nodded, deep in thought.

Instead of Alden General Hospital, Sophia worked at a private wellness retreat, one with all the necessary credentials.

Their clientele consisted mostly of the ultra-wealthy.

People who valued absolute privacy and comfort; their medical records were kept separate, stored only within the clinic's own system.

That was exactly why Emilia had chosen this place in the first place.

She didn't want anyone else to know about her illness.

Not even Joyce, her closest friend, had any idea what she was going through.

After a few more words of gentle counseling, Sophia finally wrote Emilia a prescription.

Emilia left the retreat with the medicine in hand, returning to her car.

The dosage instructions were printed on the side of the pillbox.

She had a bottle of water right beside her; if she wanted, she could take the medicine right now.

But Emilia hesitated.

She glanced down at her stomach.

I'll wait until after the procedure, she thought. A few more days wouldn't make a difference.

With that in mind, she tucked the pills away.

She had barely finished when her phone buzzed with a flurry of notifications.

A quick glance told her they were all about Voice of the Divine.

She clicked out of curiosity, only to find the headlines were dominated by one name: Vivienne.

At the very top of the trending topics, in bold and bright letters:

#VivienneJoinsVoiceOfTheDivine#

After the quoted segment, the entertainment news channel added their own commentary:

"According to insiders, this song—written, composed, and performed by Vivienne herself—is of exceptional quality. We've heard that many people cried during the recording session."

"Who would have guessed Vivienne's talent went beyond floral design? Her songwriting skills are incredible too."

What followed was a cascade of praise.

A short 25-second snippet—allegedly from Vivienne's original song—leaked online and quickly went viral.

Countless video creators started using those 25 seconds as background music, whether for heartfelt stories, beauty vlogs, or even pet videos—each one exploding in popularity.

Under Vivienne's video, a flood of comments poured in:

"Oh my god, I had no idea Vivienne could write songs this well! I've had that 25-second clip on repeat—can't wait for the full track!"

"It's so heartbreaking. Vivienne isn't just beautiful, her flower studio is amazing, and now her songwriting is this good. I can't believe she only has six months left to live—I want to cry."

"Emilia's worked her whole life and still can't compare to Vivienne's 25 seconds."
