FreeNovelChapter 336 Devin had somehow borrowed a laptop, and Curtis slipped the SD card into it.
The contents loaded quickly, and a flood of photos filled the screen. Curtis knew instantly what they were.
Photos of him and Leanne from their days in Northwood, pictures he had taken himself.
He had wanted to take them when he left for a trip to Emberland Country, but the memory card had mysteriously disappeared.
Turns out, she had taken it.
Despite how much he had hurt her, she had held onto their best memories.
It felt like a punch to Curtis' chest-sour, bitter, and painfully warm.

Curtis clicked through the photos one by one.
Leanne napping on the couch, a beige knitted blanket draped over her, her face peaceful in sleep.
Curtis remembered that day. She had casually picked up a copy of "Knight's Visual Anatomy Atlas" to browse through, revealing to him that she had packed several medical textbooks for their honeymoon.
She had dozed off after only a few pages, leaning on the couch.
- Two snowmen stood side by side in the yard, one with big round grape eyes, the other towering next to it. That day, her hands had turned red from the cold. When they got home, Curtis warmed her hands under his coat. She was still not used to being so close to him and blushed intensely.
her - Leanne resting her chin on her hands by the window, watching the heavy snow fall in the dark night, a few strands of hair falling across her forehead, her lashes curled up, nose slightly red, her lips softly parted. Curtis remembered that day clearly.
After taking that photo, he had set the camera aside and kissed her. It was a moment full of heat, right in the middle of that gorgeous snowy night.
The memory card held over a thousand photos, each one bringing a vivid image of Leanne back to life. Devin watched quietly from the side, a rare moment of silence.
1/2 Chapter 336 The emotions Curtis felt when capturing those moments were not something that could be recorded in words or data but were forever preserved in those still images.
Devin wasn't usually interested in matters of the heart; to him, women were less intriguing than video games.
He had never deeply understood the relationship between Curtis and Leanne. Like a single-thread processor, Devin would get along with and respect anyone Curtis was into.
But now, seeing these photos and videos, the simple words took on real flesh and blood.
"Bro, you really love her." The others nearby were curious and tried to peek. “What's that? Letsee.....” Curtis slammed the laptop shut. "Back off." They obediently returned to their seats.
Curtis looked up and noticed that the table was now empty.
The restaurant no longer held that poppy-like splash of red.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHad she left? She had appeared wearing the couple's watch he gave her, letting him know she was there but refusing to sit with him.
She didn't celebrate his birthday with him but left the memory card as a gift before disappearing without a trace. Was she just toying with him? It was more than that; she was playing him like a fiddle.
Leanne had grown a lot in these three years.
Curtis removed the memory card, stood up, and said, “Have fun," before grabbing his and striding out.
"Curtis is leaving already? We haven't even had the cake."
Devin, for once, didn't mind his brother leaving early. He sat down and began eating Curtis' piece of cake. "His soul's been hooked away by his wife."
Leanne stepped out of her car at the entrance of Golden Grove Manors, walked to the elevator andpressed the button for her floor. Just as the elevator doors were about to close, a hand stopped them, and they slid back open. Seeing Curtis' face outside, she started to ask how he had finished so quickly.
But before she could speak, he stepped in, pushed her against the wall, and kissed her fiercely, his passion uncontrollable, pressing intensely against her tender lips. Leanne, initially stiff, gradually relaxed into his embrace, opening her lips slightly to welchim.
