Laura quietly left the house without Charlie's knowledge. She was really tired of being cooped up in the house. Laura felt that Charlie was now a useless man.

Laura didn't care even though she was mocked and gossiped about. She remained confident by pretending to be deaf.

"I have to see him," Laura said to herself.

Laura smiled when she saw that Daren had just left the Davidson Group company. Immediately, Laura quickened her pace towards Daren.

"Daren," called Laura, who immediately hugged Daren.

Getting a hug from his ex-wife did not make Daren feel happy. He immediately brushed off Laura's hug.

"Don't hug me, Laura!" said Daren sarcastically.

"Daren, I know, I was wrong. I betrayed you and even slandered you. I'm so sorry, Daren. And you should know one reason why I had to hurt you," Laura said softly.

Daren smiled slightly. He didn't care about anything Laura said. Daren walked back to his car.

    "Okay, Naumi, if that's your decision, I accept it. I can only say a thousand words of apology because I couldn't help myself that night," Daren said.

"You take it easy, Naumi, I will definitely keep your miscarriage a secret. I will ask the help of the doctors and nurses who have handled you to keep this secret," said Daren.

In the video, several consumers were seen complaining of stomach pains after drinking FruitWave bottled drinks produced by the Davidson branch of the company. In fact, there were several people who reportedly died due to the poisoning of the drink.Residents began to gather and protest in front of the bottled drink manufacturing plant."Make, this is a very serious problem! We need to get there immediately," said Daren. Daren and Make immediately went to the location. Daren would clarify the issue as much as possible."I'm sure, Young Master, there must be someone who deliberately wants to bring down FruitWave products. There must be sabotage!" said Make. "I think so, Make. Haven't FruitWave's packaging products been around for a long time? Why is there a problem now?"Dare

That substance is Diethylenglycol," Dr. Fram continued. "Diethylenglycol?" repeated Daren. "Yes, Mr. Daren, and Inspector Barra, we found excessive amounts of the substance in the drink. Diethylenglycol, a chemical that is commonly used as a solvent, preservative, and refrigerant. However, this substance is extremely dangerous if consumed in large quantities. The impact is like what happened to the victim. Using too much can cause poisoning, stomach pain, and even death," Fram explained.Daren nodded, "Oh, s

Some of her employees were busy tidying up items that no one was interested in buying. Since the death of Vivian, who was poisoned by Laura and Charlie, the boutique had been deserted.At first, before the case, Laura's boutique was very busy."Because of the case, my business is quiet. Is my mistake really that hard to forgive and hard for them to accept?" Laura muttered to herself."Nola Laura," called one of the employees at the boutique."Yes, what's wrong?" said Laura."How is it, Miss Laura. It's been a month since the case and our boutique has been quiet," the woman said to Laura. "Well... The rumors about the case spread quickly. Maybe people are afraid to come here," Laura replied casually.Laura let out a long sigh, even though she tried to relax it still stressed her out. "How can I get back on my feet?

Daren glanced around the factory, trying to figure out if there was anything suspicious."Richard, are you sure the security here has been tightened?" asked Daren, worried about a similar incident."Take it easy, Mr. Daren. We have increased security here, from CCTV camera surveillance to regular checks on employees and incoming raw materials," Richard replied confidently.Daren nodded, but was still not entirely convinced."How can we ensure

    "Hey, Young Master... " The beautiful woman smiled so sweetly, who else but Naumi. Daren was still stunned, hadn't Naumi decided to settle in London? The question hung in Daren's mind. Naumi, who saw Daren's stunned silence, could only smile widely while shaking her head. Then Naumi took Daren's hand. Suddenly, Daren's forehead wrinkled. "You'd better go home. Let your master come home with me," Naumi ordered Daren's driver. The driver would not leave without Daren's consent. Without thinking, Daren ordered his driver to leave.It turned out that Naumi took Daren to a café not far from the place. Daren and Naumi sat next to each other, the café was cozy, with sunlight streaming through the windows and giving it a warm atmosphere."How did you know I was here?" asked Daren as he sipped his coffee. "I found out from your assistant, Make. I was at Davidson's office," Naumi replied. Daren nodded, "So, why did you come back to this town, Naumi?" asked Daren curiously, looking int

    "Okay, Make. I'm going to the office now," said Daren who immediately turned off his phone. Getting out of bed, he picked up his not-so-wet clothes, lying on the floor. "So... you're leaving?" asked Naumi irritably. She pursed her lips, looking disappointed that Daren was leaving when they had just finished making love and it felt like Naumi still wanted more of Daren's touch. Seeing Naumi's innocent and vulnerable body made Daren feel guilty."Sorry, Naumi. I have to leave soon, there's a meeting at Davidson's company. I have to get there," Daren said as he put on his clothes. He felt bad, especially seeing Naumi's disappointed face.However, instead of accepting Daren's explanation, Naumi pulled Daren's hand with enough force that Daren fell back onto the bed. Their bodies pressed together again, and Daren could feel Naumi's racing heartbeat."Naumi, I really have to go. I promise I'll be back soon," Daren said in a tone that tried to be reassuring.However, Naumi didn't listen t
