Farewell to Love: The CEO's Desperate Chase novel Chapter 384

Wyatt let out a cold, dismissive laugh before turning on his heel and walking away.

Emilia remained where she was, poised and composed, meeting the barrage of reporters with a practiced, graceful smile.

The crowd buzzed with excitement and speculation.

Not far away, tucked into the shadows of a parked car, Tyler Erickson sat silently, his gaze fixed on the storefront across the street.

His eyes were a stormy, impenetrable black.

He couldn’t help but remember—years ago, when the Erickson Group was just beginning its transformation, she had been there by his side. She had brainstormed with him, offered strategies, and rolled up her sleeves to help make it all happen.

That meant he still had a chance. She had even agreed to his invitation.

His mind wandered back to a memory—a sunlit afternoon at the port, where she stood, head bowed, carefully selecting spices while one of his sales assistants explained their uses.

He remembered her saying, “My boyfriend has trouble sleeping. I want to buy some calming herbs to help him rest better.”
