"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

    After Sarah's funeral, a grieving Oddie decided to go into his room after making sure that the guests who had come to condole his daughter's death had gone home. "Why did you leave me so soon, my daughter?" Oddie thought to himself. He had really fallen into a slump, and he didn't know when he would be able to return to his usual activities. While savoring the sadness that engulfed his heart, Oddie hugged the doll that he had once gifted to Sarah. For the time being, he didn't want to take advice from anyone who wanted him to move on and let go of his daughter's death, because all he wanted right now was to remember every moment he had spent with Sarah. While he was busy enjoying his daydream, the door of his room was suddenly knocked by his servant. With a lazy movement, he got up from his lying position. He wanted to ignore the call, but he knew that the servant wanted to tell him something very important, because before he entered the room, he had given an ultimatum that he did

    The next day, without waiting any longer, Oddie decided to meet with Joe and Jesslyn to ask for an explanation directly to the two people he had trusted so much. All night he thought hard about the package, until his brain was slapped by the reality when he received a direct message from Joe that the man really felt sorry for Sarah's passing. With the entry of the message to his cell phone, he was slapped by the fact that Joe and Jesslyn were not the ones who would scold anyone for no apparent reason. "Benjamin, get my car ready," Oddie ordered his assistant. With his heart in his throat, as well as evidence in the form of the contents of the package he received last night, Oddie went to SkyLand Company after getting an agreement from Joe that they could meet and discuss this matter. Arriving at SkyLand Company, Oddie was immediately directed by Cristine who was already waiting on the ground floor or lobby of the company. Apparently, Joe had guessed that Oddie's arrival at his co

    In the end, Oddie came to the hospital along with Joe and Jesslyn. The man deliberately asked for help from the two people, because he was afraid of hearing other bad facts about his daughter because since Sarah's death yesterday, there were already quite a lot of facts that he had received and none of the good facts. All he heard were bad facts, such as his daughter driving recklessly, to the fact that his daughter was trying to snatch someone else's husband. "Are you ready, Mr. Oddie?" He asked reassuringly, as they pulled into the hospital parking lot. Oddie exhaled deeply, trying to control his feelings. He didn't want to look weak for now. It was enough that yesterday he looked so lost, and he was sure that his portrait of weakness would definitely be used by his enemies to start launching attacks to bring him down. "Yes, I'm sure. No matter how long it is delayed, the facts regarding the reason behind Sarah's accident will not be changed at all. So, it's better to find out s

    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
