Knock knock ....Someone knocked on the door of the study while Antonio was deep in thought. He was facing the large window in his room, but it was poorly lit.Even so, Antonio could still clearly see Violet entering after knocking on his door.Antonio gave no reaction, and went back to looking out the window from his chair."Dad...," Violet called, "I heard that you missed tea time with mom, so I made you some herbal tea. Are you okay?"Antonio turned his head and looked at Violet who was still standing at the door, carrying a cup of tea. He sighed and turned his face away."You're home, Violet. Are you tired of living alone in your apartment?" asked Antonio, not answering Violet's question. "I shouldn't be. You asked to live in an elite neighborhood, there should be no complaints to bring you home."Violet didn't answer. She hesitated to say that the reason she was going home was because she didn't want to be around Victor, who had put her in a bad mood because of their argument tha
Victor was surprised when someone pulled him up suddenly, but he was surprised a second time when he found out that it was Violet."Violet?" Victor called out to her with a confused face. "What are you doing here?""I should be the one asking that! What are you doing here? Do you intend to meet Vania?"Victor didn't answer. He was silent and averted his gaze like a man caught in the act. Violet said again. "I expected that you would see Vania again after that night. It's a good thing I came here anyway to make sure."Hearing that, Victor frowned. "You come to this place... every day?"Violet replied. "Of course I do. I have to make sure you don't cross your limits."Victor was silent. He was quite dumbfounded by Violet's words, and how she was trying to make sure that Victor didn't see Vania again."What's going on? You said yourself that Vania was the best candidate you had in mind to be part of my company, I came here to make sure I got Vania as my member. But what happened? You're
Damian paused, stopping to rub Vania's wounds when he heard her begging to be released.He looked at Vania slowly, but it only made her more frightened."You don't want to stay with me? You don't love me anymore, Vania?" Damian asked, making Vania panic and fear."No, I don't. I love you, Damian, I love you very much. But please, don't treat me like this. Please let me get out of this place and live my life freely like before."Damian didn't respond, but his face was still tense as if he was afraid Vania no longer loved him."I want my free life back. You also know that the company is looking for me, right? I can't ignore my work any longer, Damian." Damian still didn't react, making Vania even more afraid that her request would be rejected. "I promise I won't disobey your orders."When she said that, Damian turned his head and looked at her."I promise I won't betray you. I will not have relations with other men. I will only be loyal to you, I will only love you, Damian. Please."Van
Victor glanced at the man who was secretly watching Vania. It looked like he was the one Damian Huppert had told to spy on his own girlfriend."This is getting interesting." Victor sighed and stood up straight, trying not to show that he had come to make sure about Vania and Damian's relationship. "How are you, Vania?" Victor asked."You can see it yourself. I'm perfectly fine," Vania said, coldly dismissing Victor's visit to her. "What are you doing here? If it's to talk to me, then I'd say I don't have time to talk to you. I have a lot of work to do.""Of course, it's a lot, it must be the work that's piling up even more since you ignored them for five days, right?"Vania was surprised for a moment, then she looked at Victor sharply. "How did you know that? Did you dig up anything about me?""Of course, Vania, I planned to see you. How could I not find out where you were first. And it was quite a surprise that you didn't come to work for five days straight." Vania averted her gaze,
Dylan Rall sat in the car with a slight nervousness, looking at the tall building across the street. He looked up at Victor in the driver's seat with a worried look on his face."Hey, Vic, are you sure we can do this?" asked Dylan, looking unsure of Victor's plan.Victor replied. "I'm sure because you're with me.""Why are you sure to jump into a deep hole just because I'm with you? We could be arrested for kidnapping, Vic!""We're going to do a kidnapping, but not for something bad."Dylan was silent, confused by Victor's answer.Victor who realized that, just turned around and said, "You don't have to worry, I'll take responsibility and make sure you're okay. You just need to help me carry her. Do you remember what she looks like?"Dylan looked back at the photo of the woman Victor had given him and answered in a doubtful tone. "Yes, I already remember her.""That's good. In five minutes she'll be out for lunch. She doesn't like the menu at her office café and prefers to eat at the
Dylan and Vania sat facing each other in the small room.Vania looked around, it seemed that this was Dylan's living place, because the man seemed to be casually getting water from the refrigerator for Vania."Is this your house?" asked Vania, after Dylan put down the glass of cold water for her."It's where I live when I have to go back and forth to college. My real home is in the countryside and quite far from the city core.""So, what are you keeping me here for?"Dylan was surprised when Vania said that. He shook his head."I didn't mean to kidnap or keep you, miss. I'm just trying to help Victor," Dylan said, Vania just looked at him sharply without speaking. "And of course, help our business to grow better."Vania sighed and rolled her eyes, sick of it."I've repeatedly told Victor that I'm not interested in being part of his company.""Even though Victor has offered you a handsome fee?""I've also told him that it's not just about the pay.""Is it about your lover's permission?
Vania walked alone along the sidewalk, like a slightly lost person. She looked confused, not knowing what she should do after her conversation with Victor's friend.Dylan had just locked the door to his apartment, preparing to meet Victor."How is Victor? Is he okay?" Dylan paused at the door, feeling anxious again at the thought of Victor's unknown whereabouts."His head is bleeding from the impact. Is it bad? There's quite a lot of blood."Dylan was anxious, but he couldn't reach Victor's cell phone.The man walked down the stairs, hoping that at the end of the alley door he would find Victor in good condition."Victor?" Dylan's hope came true. He saw Victor's car pulled up in front of the alley, still with the same damage, but even worse. "Vic, are you okay?"Dylan hurriedly approached, confirming Victor's condition.But when Victor got out, Dylan was silent with his mouth slightly open."Hey, Vic?" As Dylan approached, he was surprised and even more anxious to see Victor in a worse
Dylan was shocked when Violet suddenly gave Victor a hard slap on his left cheek.The man's face even got reddish and the sound of hitting sounds like echoed in the room."Miss Violet, what are you doing?" asked Dylan in panic. "Victor has been injured and just woke up after being unconscious for 7 hours straight!""I've told you before, Victor. But what did I just hear? You're trying to kidnap Vania?" Asked Violet in anger, without responding to Dylan's words.Victor looked at Violet calmly, even though he still felt the heat of his hand in his cheek. He said, "Where did you hear that from?""Don't mind about that! The only thing that I want to say to you is just stop getting in their line!""Violet, I don't want to argue with you. My head is f*cking dizzy and don't you see the bandage wrapped up over my head? Don't you want to pity me?""No, I don't!" Violet retorted. "I tried to take enough care of you, I tried to help you but you don't take my words seriously! I'm feeling embarras
