Chapter 81: The Talk Barbara was sitting in the guest chair, with a cup of tea and several jars of cookies on the table. It was the perfect time for him to relax after working for more than 14 hours. Coincidentally, his wife was away visiting they son, who was at Ben and Terry's base. So he had some me time all to himself.It was supposed to be the perfect time to relax. However, that plan was ruined when he saw Kai sitting across from him with his face bent. Barbara furrowed his brow, feeling strange about Kai's uninvited presence. It was impolite to tell him to leave. Barbara closed his eyes while letting out a tired sigh."Mr. Kai, I didn't mean to send you away. But why did you come this late?" Barbara said as he massaged his throbbing forehead.Kai was silent for a few moments. He did not reply to the question and chose to stare at Barbara with a sharp gaze. His mouth was locked tightly so that it formed a straight line on his lips.Not getting the desired response made Barbar

Chapter 83: Confession (short version)Hearing that, Steve rounded his eyes. His hands were clenched tightly, accompanied by a low growl coming out of his mouth. "Kai," Steve called Kai in a low voice, ignoring the fear that had gripped his body. "Let her go."Kai smiled wryly. His eyebrows rose with a meaningful look, clearly reflected in his amber bead. "Why would I do that?" He challenged."Because she has nothing to do with either of us," Steve replied, trying to remain calm and unruffled. The man took a deep breath to neutralize his emotions, which were about to boil over.Kai chuckled. He immediately got up from his chair and stood next to Steve with his arms crossed in front of his chest. His eyes turned to Ivy, who was currently rebelling within the confines of his two men."But she's the one who made our relationship like this. And you should know I'm not one to forgive someone easily." Kai said it in a flat tone. The change in his expression was drastic. The small laugh di

Chapter 85: Missing!Jessy let out a rough sigh while bending her face. Her lips looked pouty. Her brows were deeply furrowed with puffy cheeks. In her hand, there was now a tray of Italian lunch food, with some fresh fruit and also a large carton of milk on top.Behind Jessy was a shaggy-haired man with an exotic tan who was currently carrying a medium bag filled with clothes. The man wore yellow glasses perched on his nose.At first, the atmosphere was calm and peaceful. The man gave a small whistle as he walked towards his destination. However, the atmosphere was immediately wiped out when Jessy let out her voice."Akh, why do I have to get the job of delivering food to that woman?" Jessy complained in an annoyed tone. The man behind her let out a long sigh with his eyes closed. His feet did not stop walking down the long hallway that connected the room where Minji was detained with the main building."Because you're the only one with leisure time, Miss Jessy," he said nonchalantl

Chapter 87: Different TreatmentsJust as Kai was about to raise his voice, suddenly the voice of a food delivery man was heard at the door, cutting off the conversation between the two. Kai sighed, then immediately glanced at Steve with an awkward look. "We'll talk about this later." Kai immediately walked towards the door to get the food he ordered. Once the food was in hand, he returned to Steve with two large bags in both hands."What did you bring?" asked Steve with raised eyebrows. His tone seemed so curious. With his hands folded in front of his chest."Some pizza boxes and sodas," Kai said as he picked up the table in the corner of the room, then shifted it right next to Steve's right. After that, Kai immediately arranged the food that had just arrived on the table."Junk food? Are you sure we're going to eat this?" Steve said doubtfully. The reason was that he had been eating that kind of food for the past few days. He just didn't want to gain weight because of the food he

Chapter 89: The Struggle Minji continued to run without stopping. A look of fear was clearly visible on her face. She ignored her heart, which was beating fast, as if it were about to burst out of its place. Sweat had already flooded her entire body. Every now and then, Minji turned her head towards the back to see if anyone was chasing her or not. Fortunately, her brown eyes did not catch anyone back there.Exhausted, Minji decided to rest for a while. She leaned her body against a sturdy-looking tree trunk.The tree was so shady, making Minji feel relaxed, even if only for a moment. Her chest felt very tight from being forced to do activities that she rarely did. She drew in her ravenous breath."Thank goodness, they didn't chase me." Minji breathed a sigh of relief. She immediately sat up and joked. Her clothes were soaked with sweat. Minji enjoyed the wind that was now caressing her face.She noticed that her feet were full of wounds, considering that she had not worn any footw
