"Who is he?" Laura asked impatiently. "That Mr. Daren, he's... ""Arsen!" Daren shouted, cutting Arsen off. "Hurry up and take that woman home! Hurry up!" shouted Daren sounding snapped. "Yes, Young Master!" replied Arsen. Laura was upset because she didn't get a satisfactory answer from Arsen. Plus, while in the car, Arsen deliberately used a headset so that he didn't hear the questions from Laura who kept pressing him. "Arsen! Quickly tell me, who is Daren?" Laura shouted. Arsen even nodded his head to the rhythm of DJ music. "How annoying. Daren must have warned this guy to keep his mouth shut! Ah why do I care so much? It's not important anyway," Laura grumbled. Daren called his father's personal driver to pick her up. Laura's car would be taken to the garage by the driver. "I should have just let Laura get raped!" muttered Daren, regretting saving that traitorous woman. Arsen had dropped Laura off, and he left immediately to avoid being questioned by Laura. Laura also
Laura was getting nervous and so was Charlie. "We need to do something fast, Charlie!" Laura said, "Daren is very dangerous!" Laura rubbed her face roughly. "Yes, dear. You stay calm. I will eliminate Daren as soon as possible. Before that, I'll tell the media that we're closing this case." Charlie tried to calm Laura down. "You always say that, Charlie. But until now you haven't done anything! You're too busy with work!" Laura snapped.Charlie immediately contacted someone, he would get that person to work together to eliminate Daren and also Inspector Barra. 2 days later, at Naumi Aurora's residence."Naumi, I remind you once again, don't be friends with a killer. Don't you understand the danger?" said Mrs. Pamela, Naumi's mother. "But, Mom, Daren's not a killer! He's just being slandered. Naumi already heard the story from him," Naumi argued. "Why are you bringing it up again? That sucks!""So you just believe it? Does she have proof? Or did he show you proof?" asked Mrs. Pame
At a café Varro and Albert sat across from each other over a cup of hot coffee.Varro looked at Albert with a serious look on his face, "What's up, Albert? I can't believe you asked me to meet you here. You're usually so busy with work." Varro smiled as he took a sip of his coffee. Albert also sipped his coffee for a moment, then looked at Varro, "I heard that Daren Navarro is your son, huh? Is that true? My daughter Naumi says Daren is your son."Varro nodded, "Yes, Albert. Daren is indeed my son. The Daren whose identity I have been hiding. So, Daren and Naumi have met?"Albert placed the coffee cup on the table, "Varro, you know how much I value our friendship, right? But, I must be honest with you. I reject our son's arranged marriage. I don't want my daughter to marry a killer. Where would I put my face if Naumi married a killer!" Varro tried to remain calm, though he was beginning to grow angry. "Daren is not that woman's killer, Albert!"Albert sighed, "You are his father, Va
Right in front of the orphanage gate, Daren got out of the taxi that had brought him. Daren had been given a luxury car, even a driver and bodyguard. A smile of happiness spread across his face as he saw the place that had raised him."I haven't been here in a long time," Daren muttered.The orphanage mother, a middle-aged woman with greying hair, welcomed Daren warmly. "Welcome back, Daren!" she greeted him as she hugged him tightly. "It's been a long time since you visited here, son."Daren returned her hug, "I'm sorry, Daren, ma'am, Daren just had time to come here again," Daren said with great emotion.They walked together to the orphanage's living room. There, the orphanage mother invited Daren to sit and chat. "Mom, Daren brought you my favorite cake," Daren said, handing the gift to the woman who had raised him. "Thank you, Daren, you still remember my favorite." The woman was so happy, especially when she found out that Daren was back with his father. "Of course, Daren wi
ONE WEEK HAS PASSED. Daren's condition had started to improve after a few days in the hospital. "Daren, are you fully recovered?" asked Varro. "Yes, Father. Why?" asked Daren. "Tonight there's a party at the club. I can't make it, I have some business to attend to. Today I'm going to Malaysia.""Going to Malaysia? Why so suddenly, dad?" "Yes, Daren. That's why if possible you should attend the event.""But, dad. They don't know my identity as your son," Daren said hesitantly. "I will tell my friends that you are my son. After the business in Malaysia is over, I will announce to the public about your identity," said Varro. "Okay, dad. Daren will go to the event. You be careful."Varro Davidson Alexander, besides being a successful businessman in several European countries, also had businesses in Asian cities, including Malaysia. Night fell. Daren entered a club filled with colorful lights and pounding music.Daren came accompanied only by Arsen, his assistant. "Young Master,
Laura sat in the living room, the woman still looking restless from last night. It stressed Charlie out, how else could he calm her down. "You saw it last night, didn't you, Charlie? Daren's alive!" Laura exclaimed in an irritated tone. "I don't think my life can be at peace if that man is in this world!" Laura rubbed her face roughly. Charlie snorted, he was getting fed up with Laura's frantic behavior. "Never mind, Laura. Besides, Vivian's murder case is closed, so Inspector Barra has no right to investigate. So, there's no need to worry." Charlie raised his voice as he couldn't contain his irritation any longer. However, Laura was still uneasy. She didn't want to go to jail. She was sure that Daren was actually finding out the truth."But, Charlie, what will happen if Daren tries to find out the truth about Vivian's death? We'll be in jail Charlie! Did you forget that we poisoned Vivian!" shouted Laura. "That's enough, Laura! You calm down a bit. Don't stress me out even more.
"You bastard! Don't make accusations!" Charlie snapped with emotion."Accuse? I'm not making accusations, Mr. Charlie. I certainly have my reasons for releasing Daren," Barra said casually. "Damn it!" unable to contain his anger, Charlie kicked Inspector Barra's ass. Did this Inspector Barra really know the truth? The thought began to creep into his mind, but anger still dominated. Charlie continued to beat Barra, making the inspector look overwhelmed."Don't try to spread slander!" growled Charlie who continued to attack Barra. Suddenly, Laura appeared and tried to stop her lover's reckless behavior."Stop, Charlie!" Laura held Charlie back from attacking Inspector Barra again. "Laura, why are you preventing me?" snapped Charlie, confused by the girl's actions. Laura whispered softly in Charlie's ear, "You can't be stupid! This is a filming location. If they get suspicious, what then?"Charlie was taken aback, fully absorbing Laura's words and trying to compose himself, altho
3 DAYS LATER. "Are you ready, my son?" asked Varro as he adjusted his son's slightly askew tie. "Daren is ready, Dad!" said Daren firmly. "Good! You are very handsome and dashing, Daren. Your ex-wife will be very sorry when she finds out who you really are," said Varro. "Yes, Father. Daren is sure she will regret betraying a billionaire's son," Daren said with a faint smile. "After this, you must clear your name," said Varro. "Yes, Father. All the evidence has been collected. Daren will surely spread the evidence."Varro tapped Daren on the shoulder, "Now let's go to the hall. The reporters are waiting for us there."Daren nodded firmly. The reporters had gathered in the luxurious hall of Varro Davidson Alexander, the billionaire who had called the press conference.No one knew what topic the super-rich man would announce, but everyone was curious about the big information that might be revealed today.Varro walked to the podium with a calm and confident stride, accompanied by
Daren and Naumi take their children, Alexander, Lucas, Bella and Rose to the place where Daren's mother and father last met. Although Daren had met his mother and father in a dream last night. However, it felt like something was missing if he didn't visit the grave of his father and mother. "Hello, Dad, Hello Mom," Daren said as he placed flowers near his mother and father's tombstones. The children were in the baby box trolley. Daren's eyes were already red. Although he tried to be sincere. But it was still difficult. After he achieved tremendous success in a short time, but unfortunately the success that Daren had achieved, without being accompanied by his father and mother. "Dad, Mom, Naumi and Daren are here to introduce our children, grandchildren to you," Naumi said, seeing that Daren seemed unable to speak, so Naumi took over. Daren wiped his tears, then kissed t
Daren stood in front of his bedroom window, looking out, thinking about his tumultuous life journey. Soon, he would be inaugurating five hotels and five restaurants that he had built with his team. However, before the big event, there was one thing he needed to do. "Mr. Daren, are you ready?" Make appeared in the doorway, interrupting Daren's reverie. "Yes, Make. Let's go," Daren replied as he grabbed his jacket. The two of them left for the hospital where Charlie, Daren's ex-in-law, was being treated. Charlie, who had slandered Daren for the murder of his mother-in-law, was now lying weak, no longer having any strength. The police said that Charlie's condition had deteriorated over the past week. When they arrived, the police took Make and Daren to Charlie's room. The man woke up and looked at Daren with tired eyes. "Daren...," Charlie whispered hoarsely. Daren looked at Charlie with a sardonic gaze, but actually he was very sorry, "Charlie, I didn't come to bring up the
Chapter 179It had been two months since the last meeting, and the atmosphere at all the project sites was full of enthusiasm and dedication. The admin staff, laborers, and all the workers and teams involved were enthusiastic about completing the hotel and restaurant construction projects in five cities.At one of the project sites, one of the head supervisors stood in the middle of the field with the laborers who were busy working. "Come on, everyone! We're already at 90%! We can finish this on time if we keep working with this kind of enthusiasm!"A laborer who was transporting materials shouted, "We will do it, sir, so that this project can be completed as soon as our superiors want!"At another location, one of the admins in charge of organizing logistics was talking to a truck driver. "Make sure all these materials get to the site, no delays as ordered by our superiors!"&nb
A few weeks later, Daren and Naumi had a big party prepared by Make and Evelyn. It was held in a large garden that had been beautifully decorated with flowers and sparkling lights. The party was to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the Davidson company and to celebrate the birth of Naumi and Daren's quadruplets. Guests begin to arrive, dressed in outfits that match the theme of the event. The atmosphere tonight is absolutely buzzing.Daren and Naumi stood at the entrance, welcoming the guests with big smiles.Their four babies were in baby boxes. "Welcome, thank you for coming," Daren said as he shook the hands of the guests. Naumi was so happy tonight, she looked like a fairytale queen. In the midst of the crowd, Make and Evelyn made sure all the preparations went smoothly."Make sure there's food on every table," Make told the catering staff. "And don't forget to always check the drinks."As for Evelyn, she directed the guests to the seating area. "Please sit here, the show
Under a cloudy sky, Daren and Naumi walked slowly towards Green-Wood Cemetery, the final resting place of Daren's parents. Their graves were located side by side, with sturdy and well-organized tombstones.Daren grasped Naumi's hand tightly. "This is my mom and dad's grave, honey."Naumi nodded slowly, sensing the sadness on Daren's face. Then, Daren and Naumi knelt in front of the tombstones."Mom, Dad, this is Daren. I've come with Naumi, my wife who is pregnant with your grandchild. Daren wants to ask for your blessings and prayers so that Naumi's pregnancy is healthy, runs smoothly and our baby is born healthy," said Daren. "Please pray for Naumi, so that Naumi is strong and healthy," Naumi added. Daren and Naumi took a moment of silence, letting the silence speak between them. After a while, Daren hugged Naumi tightly."I wish my mom and dad were still alive," Daren whispered.Naumi smiled softly. "God loves your mom and dad more, honey, that's why God took your mom and dad. Y
The next morning, the doctor came to check Naumi's condition. Daren sat by his wife's bedside, waiting anxiously as the doctor performed the examination."How is she, Doctor?" asked Daren in a worried tone.The doctor smiled soothingly. "Miss Naumi's condition is stable, but she still needs intensive care at least until the day after tomorrow. We want to make sure everything goes well."Naumi breathed a sigh of relief at the doctor's explanation. "Thank you, Doctor."Daren decided to have a further consultation with the doctor after the examination was over. "Doctor, may I speak with you privately?""Of course, Mr. Daren," the doctor replied. They moved to a corner of the room to talk further."Actually, Naumi has had two miscarriages before," Daren said in a low voice. "I'm very worried that it could happen again."The doctor nodded with understanding. "I understand your concern, Mr. Daren. We will do our best to maintain Naumi's condition and her pregnancy. There are some things we
Two months later, at the Davidson Mansion, Naumi sat in the dining room, feeling sick to her stomach. Her head felt dizzy, and her vision was foggy."Evelyn, I don't feel well," Naumi said, holding her stomach.Evelyn immediately approached, worried. "Naumi, you look pale. What are you feeling?""My stomach is really upset, and my head is dizzy. I think I need to lie down," Naumi replied in a weak voice.Evelyn helped Naumi up and led her to the room. However, before they reached the room, Naumi suddenly vomited and then fainted."Naumi!" Evelyn shouted in panic. She immediately called the maid. "Quick, help me get Naumi to the car. We need to take her to the hospital."The waiter immediately helped lift Naumi up and carried her to the car. Evelyn drove the car quickly, heading for the nearest hospital.Meanwhile, outside the city, Daren and Make were checking on the construction of the project that had only reached thirty-five percent. "Mr. Daren, we are short of materials and labor
Daren immediately contacted Evelyn and Make, asking them to meet at a café. Evelyn arrived first, looking agitated and worried."Daren, what's wrong? Why did you call me here?" asked Evelyn in a worried tone."Take it easy, Evelyn. I just want to talk about something important," Daren replied calmly.Not long after, Make arrived. He looked nervous, but tried to keep his composure. Daren directed them to a table located in the corner of the café, ensuring that their conversation would not be interrupted."Mr. Daren, is there anything important you want to tell me and Evelyn?" asked Make, trying to hide his nervousness in front of Daren. "I want us to discuss your relationship," Daren said firmly."What do you mean, Daren?" asked Evelyn with trembling lips."I saw you two on top of the building." Daren smiled a little, he showed a photo of Evelyn and Make making out, Daren had captured the hot and passionate scene. Evelyn and Make looked at each other worriedly. "Daren, I can explain,
Daren entered the meeting room with a stern demeanor. Inside, the replacement architects were waiting, ready to present. Make and Billy were also present. "Good afternoon everyone," greeted Daren in a firm tone, "I'd like us to start by discussing the new design concept. The previous concept will not be used anymore, and I hope you are ready for this challenge," Daren said seriously. An architect named Malvinas came forward. "Young master, I have prepared some ideas. I hope that these concepts will match your company's vision," he said calmly. Soon Malvinas began his presentation, showing various sketches and design concepts on the screen. Daren watched closely, making a few suggestions and corrections here and there. "I want there to be more green elements in this design," Daren says, pointing to the sketches on the screen. "Parks and open spaces are very important for this project.""Sure, Mr. Daren. I will add more green elements according to your request," Malvinas replied. "
