Chapter 547
The letter that Bella had left behind didn't have a signature or an address, but Jack would not mistake Bella's unique handwriting for anyone else's.
"My dearest Big Bun, by the time you get this letter, I might already be flying toward the capital. I didn't want to leave, but I was given no choice in the matter. I'm not sure when I'll be returning to Alnewgo after I leave.
"Perhaps the next time I return, I'll just be a passing visitor. But I have no idea when I'll be back.
"That's right. I've decided to leave you. I don't know how long I'll be gone or when I'll be back. It could be a month or a year, or it could even be a decade or longer.
"Please don't be sad over me. Don't be upset, okay? Promise me that you'll have a smile on your face after reading this letter.
"The moon waxes and wanes, and all parties must eventually come to an end. But I don't want our story to end with a dirge. I truly hope that you can accept this new reality with a smile on your face. Read complete version only at Fɪnd-Novel.net
"Please forgive me for how distant I've been in recent days. I was worried that the more time I spent with you, the more difficult it would be to sever our relationship. I was afraid of making a decision I would regret.
"It took me a long time to decide if I wanted to write this letter to you, but my longing for you won out in the end. Please forgive me for not leaving any way for you to contact me. I'm afraid that I'll be unable to leave if I hear your voice.
"Do you remember how I once said I wanted to mold you into my perfect lover? At the time, I thought you would be the best partner for me, the best husband and father. Every time we were together, I would dream of our future. You had also proven yourself with your actions that you had the capabilities to carve out a wonderful future for me and our future children.
"In my heart, you're an irreplaceable hero. I truly believed that we would be able to grow old together one day, but reality has come to shatter that dream.
"I still remember the first time we met like it was yesterday. You looked so silly, but the smile on your face had been a genuine one. From that moment, I knew that you were someone special.
"Every moment that we've spent together has left a deep impression on my heart, especially that one night in winter when you drove your Bentley through the snowstorm. You told me about your achievements outside of school. And then there was that unforgettable night we spent together...
"But at the end of the day, we're still regular people. My mother once said that unless you have 10 billion dollars, she would never agree to us dating. I know that it's an impossible dream, but I couldn't go against her word.
"I once again ask for your forgiveness for leaving without a word. The future that we painted together was too beautiful to the point that it scares me. It was too unrealistic.
"I'm about to leave Alnewgo. I wanted to take our dreams with me, but I realized that the dreams were too heavy with you in them, so I might be leaving them behind forever before I go.
"I don't know when I'll return. It might be in five or ten years. I wonder if my dreams would still exist then? Could we still treat each other honestly like how we did when we first met? Please don't chase after me, okay?
"I'm looking forward to the day when you appear like a hero before me once again and use all your strength to destroy any obstacles in our path so that we can pick up where our relationship dropped off. I know that all of this is just an impossible dream. The distance between us is as vast as the Atlanticus Ocean, making it impossible to cross."
