"Argh... Damn you, Joe! I swear I'll beat you next time and never let you taste happiness!" Aaron exclaimed angrily, with his face bright red from his current anger.

Aaron was so angry because he lost again to fight Joe in court. Luckily, this time, it was only Amber who received all the consequences because he put himself as the one who moved behind the scenes from the beginning.

"Luckily, I didn't show up and clarify the connection between me and Amber. So, only that stupid woman was punished for making a false report by distorting the facts." Aaron felt a little grateful behind the anger filling his heart.

"But I can't stay still. I don't want to lose! I never lose! I have to devise a better plan and ensure that I will succeed in destroying Joe to his roots. Argh! You bastard Joe! Why does Goddess Fortuna always favor you, huh?!" He was moving angrily again.

Just as Aaron focused on his anger, a knock on his study door distracted him momentarily. He put his anger aside and got up a

    Inside the prison, Amber banged her head repeatedly against the wall to relieve the stress and headache she was currently feeling. She cursed herself for falling into the trap set by Joe."I shouldn't have granted Ed's request, who wanted me to report that bastard Joe to the police! I should have been suspicious and more careful because Joe would never forget the person who ruined his business."As she cursed and scoffed at herself, Amber's memory seemed to be drawn back to the events of a few days ago, precisely at the trial.***"What do you mean, Mr. Joe?" The judge asked Joe about the ambiguous statement made by the man.With a mysterious smile, Joe coded Rossie to give the judge another piece of evidence he had kept for a long time."Please judge for yourself, Your Honor Judge." Joe exhaled slowly, then continued, "The document contains the losses I incurred while running the business and eventually ended up in bankruptcy. The bankruptcy made me delay payment to the employees for

    After Rosetta's first arrival a few days ago, the woman started visiting her daughter regularly every day.Jesslyn could only accept her mother's arrival with mixed feelings because the relationship between them was not that close to visiting each other every day. Moreover, the last time they met ended in a big fight, so the event was firmly entrenched in her brain and made her uncomfortable with her mother's daily visits."What is it again, Mom? What excuse are you going to use this time?" Jesslyn went straight to the point with her mother. She couldn't hold it in any longer."You don't want to allow me to enter before asking that sarcastic question, my daughter?" Rosetta snorted. She looked annoyed but tried her best to manage her emotions so that her relationship with the princess would not be further strained.Jesslyn rolled her eyes lazily, then allowed her mother to enter her apartment. "Sit down, Mom. Then, tell me the reason why you came here?"Rosetta started her act, she did

    The next day, Rosetta didn't come back to Jesslyn's apartment. She still harbors resentment towards her daughter for what happened yesterday."Why is Mom home today? Did Mom not go to Jesslyn's apartment today?" Zack asked. He was surprised his mother still needed to carry out their plan to approach Jesslyn for money."Later! I'm still pissed off with that kid!" Rosetta snorted in annoyance. She took a quick sip of her coffee, letting the caffeine-filled beverage enter her body and improve her mood."What happened?" asked Zack curiously. "If it was just because of Jesslyn's snide remarks, Mom should have held back. Aren't we used to her sharp words?" He continued."It's not just because of Jesslyn's sharp words, but she's done worse than that to me!" Rosetta pointed at herself. The irritation that had slightly diminished after drinking the coffee returned as she recalled yesterday's events. "She threw me out violently after I gave her a fancy dress! Can you imagine that? She kicked me

    Sarah massaged her aching temples, having overthought the threat Aaron had given her.Remembering the threat, Sarah seemed to want to curse the meeting between her and Aaron one month ago.***"Hey, do you want to dance with me?" Aaron asked Sarah, who also happened to be attending the wedding invitation party of one of the famous restaurant entrepreneurs."Yes?" Sarah looked selectively at Aaron because she didn't know him."Are you willing to dance with me?" repeated Aaron. This time, he reached out while bending his body, making Sarah uncomfortable about refusing his invitation, especially now that several pairs of eyes were watching them."Of course," Sarah welcomed Aaron's hand, and then they both danced in a reasonably close position.Whispers were heard as the two of them danced. They all agreed to praise the two who looked very suitable."Very lucky, Mr. Aaron, to invite the daughter of the very influential Mr. Oddie to dance," said one of the young men, who had been looking e

    Aaron sipped his wine in a pleased mood, as his second plan seemed to be going smoothly, smoother than his plan to take down Joe through Sarah."Let's count, 1, 2, ... 3," Aaron raised his fingers one by one, and right at the count of three, he saw a semi-conscious Zack being pulled out of the room he was sharing with Delia."He's strong too. Can spend all night just making love," Aaron muttered.Zack, who was still semi-conscious, could only stare at the bodyguards who were still pulling him roughly with a stupid look. Inwardly, he thought, "What the hell is going on?"With a single jerk, Zack's body was pushed to the floor right after he was given a slap on the side of his face."Ouch! What are you doing?" Zack shouted. His life seemed to be forcibly pulled from another world until his head felt even more dizzy because he was still suffering from a hangover."Why did you hit me?" Zack got up with staggering movements, staring stupidly at the bodyguard before him."You're still askin

    Zack returned to his house happy, even though his face showed the opposite."Zack, what's wrong with you?" Rosetta panicked when she first saw the condition of her son, who came home with several bruises on his face. "Who dares to do this to you? Tell me, let me get back at them!" She said confidently, which immediately provoked a rude snort from Zack."How can Mom get back at the people who hurt me, huh? I can't even withstand their blows, let alone you," He mocked.Rosetta's expression, which initially looked worried, instantly turned into annoyance. "Whatever! Treat your wounds yourself!" She said in exasperation."Uh, Mom!" Zack held back his mother's hand. He couldn't afford to waste an opportunity to talk privately with his mother, especially now that Noona wasn't at home, and now was the most appropriate time to convey the plan he had laid out."What else? You still want to belittle me?" retorted Rosetta, rolling her eyes in annoyance."No, that's not it. I have something that

    Rosetta returned to her house to meet Zack, the purpose of course being to give her son the item he had requested."Zack, wake up," Rosetta pleaded as she shook her son's body. Occasionally, she checked right and left to ensure Noona was away right now."Zack!" This time, Rosetta shook her son's body more vigorously."Uhm, mom?" Zack rubbed his eyes, then looked at his mother, who was carrying a bag she had been taking a lot lately. "What's wrong? I'm so sleepy," He complained."Here, I have successfully retrieved the data you are referring to," Rosetta said quickly. Her eyes still seemed to sparkle, and a sense of happiness surrounded her heart because she would soon get a lot of money."Re-really?" Zack sat up quickly, making his head dizzy from the sudden movement. "Here! Let me check! Where's the flash drive?" He asked, holding his hand.Instead of giving him the pen drive, Rosetta gave him her bag. It was a large bag that she had been using to hold her clothes when she went to Je

    "What do you mean, Mr. Oddie?" Joe asked the same question that everyone in the meeting room was thinking."Well, I got the same plan from someone yesterday. Someone who came to me personally, and asked me to work with his company," Oddie explained."How could that happen? While this design is purely the result of my thoughts," Joe defends.Oddie was silent, he didn't respond to Joe's defense, because he already felt disappointed by considering the man as a plagiarist."If this is the design you are referring to for the new project, then I choose to cancel our partnership, Mr. Joe. I can't work with someone who takes ideas from others," Oddie said. He got up from his seat, followed by the other investors."Wait! You can't do this, Mr. Oddie. You've signed a partnership between our companies, and You can't just cancel the agreement." Joe looked at Oddie with a deep gaze, as if giving a code that what he was saying now was the truth. "Have a seat, Mr. Oddie and to the other investors."

    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?

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
