The people who had previously felt in charge of the refugee camp were left with no choice but to share with the islanders they had evicted. Even so, William and his team divided the place between the two groups so that nothing bad would happen. Food and other daily necessities were divided equally so that there would be no more conflict.The man whose money was returned by William came to William and knelt in front of William. He immediately became a spectacle for the people who were there."Mr. Smith, please forgive me. I will never do it again."William just stared at him with both hands folded in front of his chest."I thought I warned you earlier that I didn't want to see your face in this refugee camp again," William said, not pitying the man at all,"Sir, I don't know where to go. There is no food in the forest and I have no shelter. Have mercy on me, Mr. Smith."William raised one eyebrow. "Why should I pity a man who has no mercy like you?""Mr. Smith, I have children and a wi
The evacuation began supervised by Joe. She was chosen to remain in the refugee camp as she had injured her leg and could not walk for long. Initially, William asked her to return by helicopter to get better treatment, but she refused and still wanted to help at the camp. Since it was her own wish, William gave his permission.The rumbling sound of the mountain, which seemed to be coughing, created smoke and ash. This again disrupted the evacuation. William was ready with his team for the second day of the rescue expedition on the island. Based on the drone monitoring, whose visibility was shrinking due to the ash, there were still several groups of evacuees who had not touched aid and were just surviving on what they could salvage from their farmlands before they were covered by hardened lava.Niall, the team member who brought the baby to evacuation tent number three had arrived. He was picked up by motorbike so that he could arrive quickly, as well as hand over the baby he found to
"What do you think? Is this good? He'll fit into this outfit, right?" Noah asked Selena for her opinion.Selena just nodded, forcing an enthusiastic look on her face so that Noah wouldn't know that she wasn't at all interested in the baby clothes that Noah took out of her shopping bag. Ever since receiving the news that William was going to bring home a baby who had lost his parents in the disaster, Noah had been excited. Noah visited the baby store and bought a lot of things for the baby boy, including cans of milk and toys that the baby might not be able to play with yet."You seem very excited about the baby's arrival," Selen said, giving Noah an annoyed glance, but Noah didn't notice.Noah nodded. "Of course, I like children. If there's no family looking for it, I'll ask William to adopt the child. We'll raise it as our own.""Even if there is a living family, of course they won't take it. They might use the baby to get close to Mr. Smith," Selena said skeptically."That could hap
William's breath caught as soon as he escaped the rolling waves. Unfortunately, he didn't know where he was at that moment. He was carried far away from where he was before. He pressed his head with both hands and his body trembled. She trembled not because of her body being drenched after being swept away by the high tsunami waves, but the intense fear whenever she recalled the events that happened earlier. She saw how everything was swept away by the waters, the people who were trying to be rescued so they came to that place, as well as the three people who came with her. There was no way they could have survived like him. He could still breathe at this moment because his shield ability was functioning properly."They're all dead," William whispered with his shoulders rising and his voice trembling with fear.[The system detects shocks in you]"How is this? They're all dead. I don't know what to do," William moaned again, rubbing his face repeatedly.[Do you want to exchange points
The news of the District Chief's corruption had spread everywhere after the video of William's interview. It had also reached Noah who had fainted because she didn't think William had died."Gregori!" shouted Noah who was already running out of her room. "Gregori! It's William!"Right at that moment, Gregori was also walking towards Noah's room to deliver the same news. Seeing Gregori, Noah immediately grabbed his arm."William is alive, he survived. I saw him on TV," Noah almost squealed with happiness.Gregori nodded. "You're right, I did want to come see you because I wanted to break the news. I just spoke with Mr. Smith. He's been evacuated from the island. He is currently returning to New Eden by private jet.""How long is the flight?" asked Noah."About an hour.""I'm going to the airport to pick up William. Get the car ready right now.""But, Miss, you'd better wait here. I'm sure Mr. Smith will come straight home."Noah shook her head no. "No, I won't. I'm going to the airport
"Look, I won't let you off the hook if there's something wrong in my marriage. You think I don't know that you have intentions behind your good behavior towards Noah," William said. "The only reason I let you stay by Noah's side was because I thought she needed someone. But, if I find out for once that you're trying to interfere with my relationship with Noah, I'll dump you right then and there."Selena who was threatened by William was only downcast. The day before, she was caught red-handed by William while he was talking to Jane. And that stupid Jane told William everything."Remember, Selena, I want you to leave my mansion after my and Noah's wedding is over," William continued.Selena's eyes widened. "William, don't kick me out. I don't have a home."William raised one eyebrow. "That's none of my business. You're an adult and can take care of yourself. You can find a man who wants to take you in and support you, isn't that what you're good at?"Selena held William's arm. "William
After the lavish wedding, William and Noah were in their bridal suite. Noah's reception gown has changed into a more revealing lingerie so that the curves of her body are clearly visible.Noah lay on the bed without covering her body with a blanket, letting her smooth white skin be presented to William who had officially become her husband. However, William stood beside the bed with a gaze that was not directed at Noah.[Congratulations on your marriage][The system gives a gift of a private island complete with a castle and servants]William raised one eyebrow at the notification from the system. He and Noah were planning to have a series of honeymoon events. William had intended to take Noah to the northernmost country to enjoy the glacier mountains. However, it seemed that plan changed after the system gave him an unforgettable gift."My dear, why are you just staying there? You're not interested in me after becoming your wife?" asked Noah with her voice made as deep as possible as
"This castle is so beautiful and majestic. I really like it here, darling," Noah said as she wrapped her arms around William's stomach. They had just finished making love together. William gently kissed the fragrance that came from Noah's hair. She also nuzzled into William's broad chest. Both of them were enjoying the beautiful togetherness. The sound of the waves breaking against the reef below could be heard. A coastal breeze entered the room through the open window. The smell of the sea and the squeak of seagulls added to the romance of the two of them."As long as you are happy, I will do whatever it takes for you, darling.""Really? I want to go around the island, darling. Is that okay?""Of course. Where do you want to go first?" asked William as he kissed Noah's forehead."Um, how about we walk by the beach first. Ah, no! I want to explore the south side of the island. What's inside this island, dear?" asked a curious Noah. She looked up at William who was gently stroking the
After the vacation at the castle ended, William brought Noah and Micah back to stay at the mansion. Upon returning from there, Noah felt that all her memories were impossible. She felt that she had never met William before. So she just felt that the memories were fake. Although in her mind, Noah already felt comfortable with William. He was very warm and responsible. Even Noah was always cared for without being restrained. Noah, who had resumed her activities as a model, began to occupy herself with her world. She didn't want to get lost in her uncertain feelings. She was happy to see Micah actively playing and occasionally missed William when he was out of town on business. However, Noah tries to suppress her feelings. Being a model and brand ambassador gave her a little distraction from her feelings.A hundred days had passed, but Noah decided not to accept William, even though she was secretly in love with the man. She just didn't want to become William's past. Even though William
Noah continued to think about William's offer after returning to her hotel. She felt that William's story didn't make sense. How could he die and come back to life in the same body. However, when she said goodbye earlier, Micah cried to keep her from leaving. At that moment, Noah's heart was touched and she was a little convinced. "Is it true what William said?" Noah was confused alone in her hotel room. Not long after, her cell phone rang and it was a call from the agency. Noah lazily answered the call. The voice on the other end was shouting and wanted Noah to come back from her vacation quickly. "Hurry back and work again Noah! I allowed you only two days of vacation, but it's been more than two days!""I'm just exercising my right," Noah said."Don't mess with me, Noah. Who would you be if it wasn't for the agency that raised you? You think you can make it to the top of popularity like this on your own!"Noah hung up and threw the phone away. She began to rethink William's offer
Noah has been having nightmares again, lately if she has a lot of thoughts or is too tired she always has nightmares. Noah often wakes up in the middle of the night because of her dreams. A murder against her. Noah was always frightened and couldn't sleep anymore if she just had the dream. Noah would spend her time waiting for the morning by opening her bedroom window and looking at the view of the city with the flickering lights decorating it.Noah actually wanted to go to the doctor to consult her dreams, but she didn't have much time. Her manager was always giving her endless work. She was like a cash cow for the agency, but she still couldn't rebel. She doesn't have enough courage to rebel. Because it was the agency that made her the super model she is today. Returning the favor is like a mantra that binds Noah to her agency.The cell phone rang from the nightstand, Noah glanced at the flat object and just let it flicker. She didn't move from the side
"I'm sorry I took up your time," Noah said as she faced William."No problem. I don't have any work today. Just checking the employees' work.""That's good, so I don't feel too guilty.""Never mind. Whenever you need me, just call. I'll come," William said.Noah nodded, she flashed her sweet smile and William responded in kind. They talked about many things, not about work or personalities but about general things that happened. Noah didn't talk about the incident in the park, nor her problem with Mr. Samael who asked her to be the lead in the movie that the producer was going to work on.William told her more about the tourist destinations he knew. All the places William mentioned were places he had been to with Noah. He wanted to know the reaction of the woman in front of him when he heard about those beautiful places. However, Noah just didn't move. She just listened as William told the story, her face was flat. "Have you bee
"Aaargh! Let go! Please don't hurt me!" Noah begged while continuing to curl up in pain. Her legs and hands were tied and the man, whose face was unclear, approached her with a crowbar. Noah struggled with a pleading look in her eyes, shaking her head and asking the man in front of her not to hit her. Unfortunately, the crowbar flew at Noah's head. The woman let out a long scream. Noah was breathing heavily, she was in her own room. Her head felt dizzy with her heart racing. Noah looked around, it was her room then she grabbed the glass of water on the nightstand. She gulped it down, the dream just now really drained her strength. She took a deep breath to normalize her heartbeat."It was just a dream," Noah muttered. She rubbed her face lightly, sweat soaking her face and body. Even though the air conditioning was at its maximum, Noah was still sweating. She looked at the clock on the wall, it was already 4am. She went to the window and opened the curtains. There was a marvelous vi
Noah's screams made William immediately run to the set. Flames were splashing from one of the flash lights mounted in the corner. He saw Noah look down in fear as the flames from the lamp almost hit her. William hurriedly took off his suit and covered Noah's head with it. He then carried Noah out of the room. Noah was almost killed if William didn't move quickly. Mr. Ramos approached the two and apologized for Noah's accident. The woman was still in shock and just nodded. Then Mr. Ramos excused himself to see the condition of the filming site. William took Noah away and sat her on the sofa he had been sitting on with Mr. Ramos. He saw Noah's face pale, the woman in front of him was really scared."Are you okay?" asked William."I'm very scared," Noah said."Calm down. It was just an accident, now you're safe, Noah.""Thank you, Will. I don't know what would have happened to me without you.""No problem. I also had a meeting with Mr. Ramos earlier. So I came here," William lied a litt
Noah tipped her hat as the wind picked up. Her flowing hair was a little messy because she had long hair. Not all of her hair was covered by the hat, making it difficult for Noah. She held her hat and hair with both hands. Her gaze lowered, not knowing that someone was nearby. Noah was surprised when the person cleared his throat, scaring her. She was about to move from her seat but someone sitting not far from her pulled out a pocket knife from his pocket, Noah widened her eyes and shook her head slowly."Where are you going, Miss?" The person played with the switchblade in front of Noah. The woman looked around the park, it was quiet. She didn't realize that twilight had passed and turned dim. The park was deserted, there were probably a few people still in the park. Mostly lovers who were busy with their own intimacy. The distance between Noah and the couple was also quite far. Maybe if she screamed, people would ignore her. People would think that Noah was fighting with her boyfri
"Good morning," greeted William as he approached Noah. He was taking a walk in the park. Little did he know that Noah was already there promoting the new summer edition of the drink. She was doing a photo shoot for this season's cooking magazine. William smiled, while a look of surprise was evident on Noah's face."Hi, why are you here?" Noah asked."Looking for some fresh air," William said."Heem, it's fresh here in the morning. I deliberately chose the morning time when I was offered a photo shoot for this summer drink.""Yes. I like the morning atmosphere here too. The sun is brighter this summer.""You're right," Noah agreed. They engaged in small talk that morning. William deliberately waited for Noah to finish the photo shoot. Then they went for a walk not far from the park. A classic coffee shop with a European feel became their choice to chat. Noah deliberately chose a seat close to the window. From her place, she could see the yellowing maple leaves. The streets were also st
Noah, who got a lot of surprises that day, found out that it was all from William. She wanted to return a set of jewelry that William had given her, but her manager forbade it. After Noah thought about it, it was better for her to keep the jewelry to appreciate William. After all, William was not like those businessmen who liked to look down on models like her."Great performance," William said, clapping his hands as he met Noah in her office."Thank you. You're not home yet?" Noah asked conversationally."Waiting for you. How about I drop you off?" William offered. However, Noah politely declined. She said she would go to her agency's office first before going home. A disappointed William excused himself, a look of sadness and disappointment on his face and in his eyes. This made Noah feel guilty. However, she also didn't want to give William hope. Her heart is still closed to William.The man with thick eyebrows and blue eyes drove his car to his mansion. He had done a lot for Noah,
