And behind every step he took toward Sara, there was a new dream being woven—a dream of starting over with his life, though he didn’t realize that behind it all, his father had his own agenda that could possibly shake the world he was building. Upon arriving outside the Blue Net Group building, Sebastian felt his heart pounding. The grand building stood tall before his eyes, towering with a professional and prestigious air. He swallowed, feeling a mixture of excitement and anxiety as he entered a new world. However, as soon as he stepped forward, he was stopped by the security guard standing guard at the entrance. “Excuse me, sir,” the guard said in a formal tone, “but we cannot let you in with such casual attire. Only employees who are properly dressed are allowed to enter this building.” Sebastian looked at the guard in frustration. He was wearing jeans and a plain jacket, perhaps not fitting the formal look expected in this building. “I’m Sebastian,” he replied with a slight

After saving the woman, Sebastian took a closer look at her face and quickly realized that she was not Sara, but a woman who had been his co-worker. She was known for her beauty and always exuded a charming aura, but their circumstances had never been close. He remembered how, during their time working together, he had often kept his distance because he was married and wanted to avoid unnecessary gossip or rumors, especially because his wife was known to be abusive. “Thank you for coming on time!” the woman said, her voice calm and nervous. She was still sobbing a little, and Sebastian could see the fear in her eyes. “I’m not sure what would have happened if you hadn’t shown up.” Sebastian tried to reassure her. “You’re safe now. But how did you get into this situation?” he asked, trying to catch his breath. The woman shook her head, her face pale. “I was invited to meet some of the employees here, so I came to the office and… he just came up to me. I didn’t know what to do,” she

The manager stood his ground, refusing to let Sebastian go. “You’re not getting away with this after all you’ve done! If you dare threaten one of our employees, I won’t hesitate to call the police and make your life even harder,” he said, his voice full of challenge. Sebastian felt a surge of anger but tried to remain calm. “I didn’t threaten anyone, and I will explain myself to the management. I have no intention of dealing with people like you, but if necessary, I will not let this situation go.” With that determination, Sebastian refused to back down. He knew that it was important to maintain his integrity, especially after saving Lila. He had no choice but to stand firm in his belief that what he did was right. However, the manager seemed to be getting more and more agitated and called out to the security guards who were hanging around. “Looks like we’ll have to settle this in a more… direct manner. Take action now!” Sebastian stared at the door as the two security guards

Lila held Sebastian’s hand, feeling the throbbing of her own emotions rising. “Sebastian, let’s go,” she pleaded in a calm voice, but Sebastian felt the anger boiling inside him. In that moment, he realized that this whole situation wasn’t just about him—it was a battle to protect Lila’s integrity, too, and nothing would destroy the peace they deserved. With renewed vigor and determination, he said, “We will get out of here, and no amount of threats or taunts will stop us. We will face any challenge and show who we really are.” Those moments were pivotal for Sebastian—he knew that this situation would shape the next steps of his life. And while it all seemed hopeless, he was determined to never be left behind by this sickening situation again. They may face many difficulties, but with courage, they can find their way out. Sebastian escorted Lila to the front lobby of the Blue Net Group building, feeling relieved that they had managed to get out of the tense situation. He looked

Sebastian felt confused and frustrated. He didn’t want to get caught up in this devious adult game. Deep down, he wanted his father to want something more genuine and meaningful for their relationship. “But this isn’t what I expected, Dad. I wanted us to build a stronger relationship based on honesty, not manipulation,” he insisted, feeling the emotions roiling inside him.   Of course, his father remained firm. “I know this seems difficult, but we have to play this game for our own good. Let them help us with connections and business opportunities. It’s all for your future,” he said again, trying to defend his position.    Sebastian still couldn’t believe that his father hadn’t changed a bit. Deep inside, he felt a combination of anger and deep disappointment, but he realized that some things couldn’t be changed that easily.  Read more

Sebastian seemed at a loss for words. He was not only angry with Sara, but also with himself for still paying attention to her argument, even though there was clearly injustice in this situation. “You really have no shame,” he said, staring at her with a sharp gaze. He was sure that all of this was not solely about Dinda, but more focused on Sara’s personal interests and the egoism that always overshadowed her decisions.    “I’m just doing what’s best for Dinda. You should understand, this isn’t just about the two of us—she’s the most important,” Sara said coldly, as if she was trying to dramatize the situation to gain sympathy.   Sebastian bit his lip, feeling the emotions inside him rising. “You may be able to pretend like you care about Dinda, but everything you do is only for your own benefit. If you truly want what’s best for

“She’s Sara’s child!” his father retorted, as if trying to emphasize that Dinda wasn’t entirely his. “You’re just caught up in these emotions. This isn’t the way to solve problems, Sebastian.”   “It may not be the way you want, but it’s the way I believe in,” Sebastian said, his tone firm. He knew that his father didn’t want to understand what he was feeling. “I’m not going back to Sara. She stabbed me in the back, and I’m not going to let myself be tied down again to someone who betrayed me.”   His father fell silent, perhaps surprised by Sebastian’s assertiveness. “But legally, this could be a serious problem. You can’t live your life based on feelings alone,” he tried to explain, but Sebastian no longer paid attention to his words.   “

“No. She doesn’t want to see you anymore. ‘Poor daddy’,” Sara replied sarcastically, as if belittling Sebastian’s efforts to be involved in Dinda’s life. Every word that came out of her mouth was like a needle that stabbed his heart deeper.   Sebastian felt pent-up anger. “This is too much, Sara! I’m not the ‘poor daddy’ you mentioned! I may not be Dinda’s biological father, but I want to be a part of her life,” he said, his voice rising, but he tried to make sure he remained polite despite the anger.    But Sara just smiled sarcastically, making him feel even more hopeless. “She might be better off without your drama-filled presence. Why don’t you just focus on yourself?” she replied, shrugging as if none of this mattered to her.    Sebastian was completely fed u

She only realized how important Sebastian was after finding out that he was the 'heir' of a large company. Everything she had previously considered trivial about Sebastian now seemed valuable in her eyes. She had once underestimated his struggles, thinking that Sebastian was just a part of her past, but now she felt as if she had missed a great opportunity.     Even though regret was on her mind, Sara quickly pushed it aside. She had already committed herself to marry Rendy, who clearly had wealth and a strong social position. Money was the most valuable thing to her, and she knew that in order to get what she wanted, she had to be consistent with her choice.     “There’s no going back,” she thought firmly. “Everything is done for money.” She knew that even though her feelings for Sebastian might still be there, her decision to unite with Re

Sara woke up in the middle of the night feeling restless. The room was quiet, but suddenly a weak groan came from Dinda's room. Her instincts immediately told her to get up and check on her daughter. With quick steps, Sara headed to Dinda's room, and when she approached the small bed, she saw Dinda's face sweating and looking restless in her sleep.    "Dinda?" Sara called softly, trying to wake her daughter who looked disturbed in her sleep.    However, Dinda only groaned softly, her small body writhing restlessly. Sara felt her heart sink in worry. When she touched Dinda's forehead, she was surprised to find her daughter's body very hot. The heat was so high that Sara pulled her hand away quickly as if stung.    "Oh my God ...," Sara muttered, her heart pounding. Panic immediately surged in her chest. She knew this was no ordinary fever. Without thinki
