Zack shuddered at the anger in Joe's eyes. He wasn't bothered by Jesslyn at all, he was just afraid of Joe because the man had so much money that could get him in trouble.

Joe approached the two, he didn't explode. He just gave the code to Zack and Rosetta to go inside the house so that they would not be the center of attention.

"We'd better settle this inside, Dad." Joe said that to Ben so that the problem would no longer be complicated.

"Joe, they've been very mean to Daddy. Daddy has clearly refused them to come to this house." When Joe was about to answer again Ben didn't mind.

Ben already owed Joe a lot of favors. If it was best to talk it over in the dining room, Ben would comply.

"It's okay, Jes. If Joe thinks it's better that way. Daddy is even ashamed of not being able to hold back Daddy's emotions as a parent."

"But, Daddy is not wrong. They are the ones who don't know any better. I was patient yesterday but they are getting more and more outrageous." Zack wa

    Joe walked back and forth in front of the hospital treatment room. At the moment, his heart was in turmoil because he had not been able to heed the sudden shock of seeing his wife collapse right in front of his eyes. "Never mind, Joe. Jesslyn is just tired, she's fine. Don't worry too much about that woman, she does a lot of drama to get people's attention," Rosetta snorted, her eyes hurting from watching her son-in-law walking back and forth in front of her. "Watch your mouth, Rosetta. Jesslyn is your daughter. How can you accuse your own daughter of such a lowly thing?" Ben was furious, his anger that had subsided after Joe's arrival at his house earlier bubbled up again because he was provoked when he saw his ex-wife's behavior which he considered very outrageous. "What did I do wrong? I was just telling the truth," Rosetta defended. She snorted again, this time because she didn't like Ben's attitude that seemed to always beat her, even though she didn't feel wrong at all. "You

    "I hope that your life can get better from now on, Jess. I can only pray for you, because I realize the extent of my ability to make you happy. I realized too late that you are so precious that by the time I want to make you happy, I already don't have the energy and money that can support me to make you happy." Ben thought sadly, unconsciously he wiped the corners of his eyes that felt wet, and it was seen by Joe. Seeing that his father-in-law was not in a good mood, Joe coded to Jesslyn that he wanted to discuss something with Ben. Jesslyn agreed, she of course allowed her husband to comfort her father who was sad for who knows what reason. "Dad, can we talk for a minute?" Joe asked in a soft tone, which successfully surprised Ben who had been lost in his own thoughts. "What?" Ben was confused. He looked at Joe, then turned his attention to Jesslyn, then moved on to Rosetta and Zack who were also looking at him. Wordlessly, Ben seemed to be asking Joe what had happened that the

    "They didn't do anything. You misunderstand, Joe. I cried because I was touched. After all this time we can finally get together again like before," Jesslyn said with a sweet smile. Hearing Jesslyn's explanation, Joe and Ben finally looked at each other. They both simultaneously turned their heads and looked at Rosetta and Zack with suspicious eyes. Naturally they were suspicious, because before they left the room to go to the hospital cafeteria, Jesslyn seemed not interested at all in talking to her mother and younger brother. But after they returned, Jesslyn looked very happy, even Rosetta and Zack's position had also moved to the bedside, not in their original position on the sofa in the room. "Are you sure they didn't do anything to you? Did they threaten you so that you wouldn't dare reveal what really happened? Just tell me, Jess. Dad will definitely protect you from anyone who tries to hurt you. Whoever it is, including those two." Ben stared intently at Rosetta and Zack, t

    Kevin chuckled, slightly regretting his actions in exposing Sarah to a new type of drug that was very rare, but had a very enjoyable effect on the user. "I promise, I will carry out your task quickly, as long as you give me that stuff again, sir." "No. You can buy it with your own money. Aren't you the favorite daughter of that very rich Mr. Oddie? There's no way your father would let you live neglected, right? I think even if you ask for the latest car, he'll grant it, let alone just a small amount of money to buy it."Sarah shook her head quickly after hearing Kevin's statement. "No, sir. My father seems to have begun to suspect me, and I can't risk asking him for a large sum of money."Seeing Sarah's behavior that began to get out of control, Kevin's mind seemed to be transported to the time when he first met the woman, namely in the park where Jesslyn decided to come with Joe and it successfully provoked Sarah's anger because she felt abandoned. At that time, Sarah, who was ups

    Sarah was back at it again, approaching Jesslyn even though she was already too sick of the sight of her. Now, her main goal was not to get close to Joe who had caught her attention in the first place, but to get the file that Lucas had handed over to the man a few days ago, the file that contained the power of attorney where Joe could take over SkyLand Company without any conditions, except for one thing: the man had to take responsibility for the company and expand his influence to foreign countries. "No matter what, I must be able to get that file. I don't care how Joe responds to me after this, because the most important thing is that I must be able to get the drug again. I'm completely addicted to the effects of that drug, it's like all my problems can just disappear once I take it," she said talking to herself. "Hang in there for a while, Sarah. You just need to pretend for a while and I'm sure that stupid woman will fall asleep as usual, and when that happens, I should be ab

    Jesslyn smiled grinning after seeing Sarah's presence, she looked so cheerful after realizing that her plan was going smoothly. Yes, all the scenes seen by Sarah were fabricated by Jesslyn from the beginning, after she got the notification from Cristine. "You guys? What are you doing?" Sarah asked stupidly. A jealous expression did not escape her face, as if she had caught her own lover or husband having an affair behind her back. "What are we doing? Of course we're making out, just like any other married couple would do," Jesslyn replied casually.Seeing the strange look that Jesslyn gave her, Sarah quickly changed her expression. She began to look calm and even dared to enter the room, she did not even pay attention to the scene before her eyes which had not changed at all since she first caught the two. "Are you going to keep holding each other's laps like that?" reprimanded Sarah with an annoyed snort. Shamelessly, she sat right on a chair in front of Joe and Jesslyn and drank

    Oddie's body shook violently after receiving a call from the police who gave the news that his daughter had suffered a terrible accident on the road. "No way! Sarah must be okay!" His hands began to weaken, limping and eventually falling as he lost control of his own body. Oddie collapsed onto the floor, his eyes staring wide-eyed at the wall. His heart seemed to stop beating, he really didn't expect his daughter to have an accident that he never imagined at all before. "I have to go there immediately," he said repeatedly, but his body did not move at all. Her body seemed to refuse, and it made Oddie feel angry with himself. "You can't be weak. Get up, Oddie!" he snapped. With broken movements, Oddie finally got up and started walking towards the outside of his house. There was already his personal driver waiting, the man looked confused at his boss who looked different from usual, but he didn't dare to ask. "To the hospital now," Oddie ordered. The driver named Thomas was eager

    Oddie fell to his knees again, his heart wracked with shock after learning that it was his daughter who caused this traffic accident. "So, my daughter caused this to happen?" Oddie blurted out, her eyes instantly looking blank. The doctor nodded. "Yes, sir. Have the police not yet explained to you the reason for Miss Sarah's accident?" the man asked for confirmation. Oddie shook his head. "Not yet. This morning I only received a direct call from the police saying that Sarah was involved in a traffic accident. That's all, and I haven't had a chance to ask the reason for that horrific event," he explained. The doctor nodded, understanding that when Oddie got the news, he must have been devastated and hadn't had a chance to ask the police who called him anything."In that case, you'd better go to the police station first, Mr. Oddie. Your daughter's car has been taken there as evidence and is being examined. Who knows if there was any engine damage that caused the traffic accident, be

    Jonathan accelerated his footsteps towards the place his father had indicated. His heart was beating so fast it was hard for him to hold back his anger towards the man who had deceived him. "Yesterday, you got away because I was still kind to you, Mark. But not this time. I will make you feel what is called hell on earth!" Jonathan was determined. With one step left to the warehouse where his captive was kept, Jonathan tried to control himself. He inhaled and exhaled many times to keep his emotions and expressions under control, so Mark would have no opportunity to fight him later. "Wow, didn't I see it wrong? The person I thought had gone to the other side of the world is still loyal to this country," Jonathan chuckled. Not forgetting, he showed a cruel grin to intimidate his opponent. Mark, who Jonathan had already tortured, was naturally very scared now. If he were free from the shackles that bound him at the moment, he would indeed run as far away from the man as possible. "W

    Joe visits Oddie after not seeing the man for a long time. The relationship between the two of them was quite good, especially after Sarah died and Oddie decided to consider Jesslyn as his daughter. And now, Joe's purpose for coming to see Oddie was to discuss what was happening at Skyland Company. He wanted to get some advice that might help him to overcome the problems that were happening, especially since the man was quite an influential person and had a lot of experience. "So, the news about SkyLand Company going downhill is true?" Oddie asked. He, whose condition had improved, took a sip of tea served by one of the servants in his house. "Yes, Mr. Oddie. I would like to hear your opinion on the problems that SkyLand Company is facing. Moreover, you are one of the investors in my company, so you might be able to give some thoughts from your perspective as an investor," Joe pleaded. "Call me dad, Joe. Aren't we family now? Don't be so formal when we're not in the office," Oddie

    Joe returned to work as usual, and Cristine welcomed her boss with great joy. After a long time of authorizing Cristine to take care of the company, Joe finally sat down in his work chair as he began his task of solving the many problems that had befallen Skyland Company lately. "What about the investors who have withdrawn their funds, Cristine? Are they willing to come back and entrust their money to SkyLand Company after I start working again?" Joe asked Cristine who was handing over some important files that required the man's signature. "No, Mr. Joe." Cristine took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly to ease the tightness attacking her chest. "I've investigated everything, Mr. Joe. And there seems to be a reason why they withdrew the investment." Hearing the explanation from his secretary, Joe looked interested. He stopped what he was doing for a moment, then looked at Cristine and gave her the code to explain further."When you handed over the main task to me to lead SkyLan

    Aaron and Esther left Zack who was still faithful to shouting incoherently, berating and insulting Aaron so that the man would come back and deal with his current behavior. Unfortunately, Aaron was not provoked at all. He didn't care about Zack's screams, and neither did Esther. After coming out of the room that held Zack, Esther immediately dropped her body onto the sofa located not far away. She looked tired. "It turns out that dealing with someone like Zack is tiring too, huh? I didn't expect him to still be able to fight back when he's in such a tight spot." Esther chuckled, as if she had forgotten what Zack had done to her earlier. "Zack is like that. Why do you think Joe chose to kick him out of the house instead of forgiving him?" Aaron narrowed his eyes, then snapped his fingers as Esther looked back at him with furrowed brows. "Yep, Zack is the type of person who doesn't know himself. That's why, Joe would rather let him go than have to live with him for the rest of his l

    Joe took a deep breath, he asked Cristine to go home first and he would think about what he would do next. Ben, who was visiting his daughter at the time, immediately approached Joe and patted him on the shoulder. "You can focus on your work again, Joe. As for Jesslyn, let me take care of her. When she regains consciousness, then I'll let you know." "But, Dad?" Joe wanted to argue. He wanted to be by his wife's side at all times. He doesn't want that when she woke up, he wouldn't be by her side. Joe knew that Jesslyn would be devastated to learn that their future child had died in her womb, and he wanted to be by her side to give her encouragement and strength. "There's no refusal, Joe. This is all for the good of everyone." Ben tried to open Joe's mind. "Think about it, if your company were to go downhill, you would have to cut back on employees, which would affect the families of those employees because the head of their family would no longer have a job. In addition, your finan

    "We're sorry, your future child cannot be saved. Mrs. Jesslyn's condition is also still not improving, she is still in a critical condition and will have to be admitted into the ICU after this. This is because she was brought to the hospital too late, and the patient has already lost a lot of blood." The doctor's explanation was like a sledgehammer hitting Joe's heart. He sat down, then covered his face. Not long after, there was a numb voice. The man was crying, because he had to get such a painful fact when his life was already on top. Joe didn't expect that this painful thing could happen to him. And this time he couldn't do anything but wait for his wife's condition to improve. "Joe." Rosetta approached her son-in-law and put her hand on his shoulder as a form of transferring strength and encouragement.Honestly, in the deepest corner of her heart, Rosetta felt very guilty for having to lie about the real reason for Jesslyn's fall. However, she was forced to do this so that Zac

    Rosetta rushed over to her daughter who had fallen and was moaning in pain. With shaky steps from shock, she struggled to help Jesslyn up. "Argh! It hurts!" Jesslyn cried out, her breathing labored and her face starting to turn pale. Rosetta was getting more and more worried and scared when she saw the condition that befell her daughter, her mind was too raging that she couldn't think clearly to find another way out so that her daughter could be saved immediately. Meanwhile, Zack, who didn't know that the impulse he was making had a very bad impact, immediately trembled. Instead of helping his sister, Zack pulled his mother and threatened the woman who had given birth to him. "Mommy, don't tell anyone what happened today! If you dare to do that, then I will act recklessly!" After saying that, Zack quickly left Rosetta who was rooted to the spot. The middle-aged woman's mind was raging, and her consciousness seemed to return after hearing Jesslyn moan for the last time before col

    "Yes, Mommy was expelled by Grandpa from the house after the resistance she put up. I'm actually confused as to why Mommy even fought back, even though from the stories of some of the bodyguards, since the beginning of Mommy's punishment she doesn't dare to fight Grandpa. Even facing or looking into Grandpa's eyes, Mommy doesn't dare." Jonathan explained. "Then, where did Aunty Quina go? Does she have somewhere to sleep tonight?" Joe asked, wanting to extract more information from his cousin. "I don't know because I didn't have time to ask Mommy either. Mommy chose to leave after being kicked out and she doesn't say anything either. But, I think Mommy must have somewhere to go whether it's a hotel or an inn to sleep tonight. Moreover, Grandpa also gave her money before Mommy." "So, that means aunty Quina didn't leave empty-handed, right?" Joe asked again, which was immediately greeted with a nod by Jonathan. "But why did Aunty prefer to go together with Aaron instead of looking fo

    Quina was sitting restlessly at the front of the cafe near her house that provided a place to relax for customers who wanted to enjoy the outdoor atmosphere. "Where's Aaron? What took him so long?" Quina chuckled in annoyance. Every now and then she took a sip of the coffee she had ordered in order to sit in that part of the cafe. After taking a sip of the coffee, Quina's face looked different. Her brow furrowed, and her eyes narrowed. "What is this coffee? It doesn't taste very good." Quina looked disgustedly at the coffee, then pushed the glass away from her body. "It turns out that I was right in my assumption that the food and drinks usually consumed by the lower middle class are very bad. I feel like spitting out the coffee I just drank." Quina said quite loudly, and her words provoked various reactions from the people around her, especially the visitors who were mostly students. Those who heard the inappropriate sentence immediately booed Quina openly and it made her even mo
