"Angelica!"In the midst of their activities, as everyone was looking at the decorations that were almost 70% complete, Richard suddenly arrived, joining those who were busy helping and occasionally just observing.Hearing her name called by Richard made the woman furrow her brow, flashing an ambiguous smile and look towards the man."Yes? What is it?" asked Angelica, approaching him.A faint sigh could be heard escaping Richard's mouth, drawing the attention of the other three people there.Angelica didn't understand why her brother seemed to be hiding something that made him uncomfortable being around there."Is everything okay? You look like you're hiding something right now," Angelica said, this time in a deliberately lowered voice, not wanting others to hear her words.Richard shook his head, letting out a long sigh."We're going home right now," Richard said, causing Angelica to clearly furrow her brow."But... the decorations aren't finished. I still want to help more, Richard!

The words that came out of Angelica's mouth this morning kept lingering in Brandon's mind.Especially when he saw firsthand how devastated that man was, it was convincing that Angelica's statement was indeed true.Brandon felt confused, he didn't know how to act anymore now. It was impossible for him to distance himself from Brianna just to protect Richard's feelings from misunderstanding, considering the many things that woman had done for him."Angelica? What happened to her, Mr. Brandon?"The faint voice that sounded hoarse snapped Brandon out of his reverie. He quickly got up, distancing himself from Angelica who was sleeping soundly on his bed."Miss Angelica had a mild drop, Sir. Because since last night she hasn't rested properly, forcing her body to keep working when it was time to rest," Brandon replied honestly.For a moment, Richard winced, feeling an intense pain in his head. "Do you have any headache medicine? My head feels so painful, do you have anything to relieve the

Kevin released his grip on Angelica's hand, letting the woman slip from his grasp.A crooked smile now formed perfectly at the corner of his mouth.He couldn't believe what he was seeing now - a man defending that woman, looking like some kind of wannabe hero for her."You shouldn't interfere with my business with my girlfriend, Mr. Brandon! You have absolutely nothing to do with the matters between me and Angelica!" Kevin stated firmly to the man.Meanwhile, Angelica quickly moved from her spot, running as fast as she could, away from Kevin who was trying to hurt her.Angelica ran towards Brandon, standing right behind him.Now, Angelica's usual haughty face was gone, replaced only by a face full of fear that made Brandon feel pity.It was unusual for him to find that woman in such a state."Girlfriend? The relationship between you and Miss Angelica ended when you decided to cheat on her, Mr. Kevin! Don't spout nonsense, everyone already knows about your relationship!" Brandon replie

Brianna checked the watch perched on her wrist.A while ago, Brandon had told her he'd excuse himself to the restroom for a moment.However, until this second, Brandon still hadn't shown his face, making Brianna furrow her brow in confusion as to where the man might have gone now."It's been almost 15 minutes, but Mr. Brandon still hasn't returned. Where has Mr. Brandon gone? Why hasn't he come back? He hasn't forgotten that there's an event coming up next, has he?"Brianna was still furrowing her brow as if it didn't want to leave her forehead.She was confused why Brandon hadn't returned yet, not knowing where the man had gone even though he had assured Brianna that he would only be gone for a moment and return soon.Even the dance event hadn't started yet because they were waiting for the man who was nowhere to be seen."I can't just keep quiet and wait like this. I need to find Mr. Brandon quickly. Something must not happen to him. I never know what danger could befall him," Brian

The inauguration ceremony has now ended, and many people have started leaving the event hall.Brandon repeatedly lets out long sighs.He doesn't know whether his current actions are right or quite the opposite.He's still trying to think through everything."Mr. Brandon!" calls Angelica, making the man turn around briefly."Yes? What is it, Miss Angelica?"Angelica seems unsure where to start her sentence, causing Brandon to furrow his brow in confusion at her behavior."I apologize for what happened earlier," says Angelica, which makes Brandon not understand; he doesn't know what Angelica means at that moment.Right now, Brandon also feels confused because the woman is not behaving like her usual self at all.All the attitudes currently shown by Angelica really don't reflect her personality anymore.How could they not, Angelica is acting as if she previously had a good relationship with Brandon when clearly the woman always behaves arrogantly towards him every day."I shouldn't have
