After enjoying a cup of coffee, Daren took out a flashdrive from his desk drawer."I have something I want you to see, Inspector," Daren said as he handed over the pendrive.Barra accepted the disk and inserted it into Daren's laptop. A video appeared on the screen, showing a conversation between Charlie and Fernando.Barra looked at Daren with wide eyes. She had no idea that Charlie would still dare to commit a crime after the death of Vivian, his own wife, who he killed with cyanide poison. "Is this true, Daren? They planned to kill you? Then, where did you get this evidence, Daren?"Daren nodded. "Yes, that's why I asked you here. I wanted to hand over this evidence to you so that they can be arrested immediately. I got the video from Luara," Daren replied. Barra sighed, "Charlie is very dangerous indeed. You should have thrown him in jail instead of teaching him a lesson," Barra said, "But this evidence is not strong enough. We need to get more evidence. Because you closed Vivia
"I will never let you go, Laura! You are mine!" Charlie pulled Laura's hair roughly, causing her pain. "It hurts, Charlie!" cried Laura trying to break free from Charlie's grip, but she couldn't. Charlie dragged Laura into the room. Charlie dragged Laura into the room. He pushed her very roughly onto the bed. Then Charlie got on top of Laura. As he was about to fuck his wife's neck, he was surprised to see a red mark on Laura's neck. "Laura, you have a red mark on your neck. Who have you been fucking, huh?" Charlie snapped, grabbing Laura by the mouth. Laura shook off Charlie's hand and smiled mischievously. "I had sex with Daren, my ex-husband," Laura replied casually. "Asshole!" Charlie was so angry, he slapped Laura roughly across the face. "You dare betray me, Laura?" snapped Charlie. An angry Charlie took Laura's clothes off with force until she was naked. Laura screamed in pain, her husband was playing very rough this time. ***"What? Naumi is going to London?" Dare
Daren felt his body getting sick and weak. Until now his body had been tightly bound to a large tree in the middle of the forest."I have to get out of Charlie's grip! I don't want to die at the hands of that bastard!" Daren tried to untie the rope binding his body.But he couldn't. The ropes were so strong. Plus, Daren's body was starting to weaken.Suddenly, Daren heard footsteps. The footsteps were getting closer.Daren thought it might be Charlie and the burly men who came. But apparently, Daren's guess was wrong.It turned out that the one who came was a familiar figure to him. A woman emerged from the darkness.The woman was Laura, his ex-wife. She seemed brave enough to enter the forest against the fear she felt entering the forest in the middle of the night like this. "Daren, be patient. I'm going to untie you now," Laura said cautiously as she untied the rope binding Daren's body."How did you know I was here, Laura?" asked Daren in a hoarse, weak voice."I overheard Charlie
Charlie was sitting in his living room with Laura. Charlie looked upset, until now he didn't know why Daren had escaped?Suddenly there was a loud knock on the door. He was surprised by the sound of the door knocking so loudly."Laura, open the door," Charlie ordered."Open it yourself, I'm busy!" Laura replied gruffly. Since Laura was too lazy to open the door, Charlie immediately stood up to open the door.As soon as the door opened, Inspector Barra and several policemen arrived."Charlie, we're arresting you!" Inspector Barra said sternly as he handcuffed Charlie's hands."What? Wait a minute! What are you arresting me for!" Charlie exclaimed, completely confused."We have strong evidence that you had planned to kill Young Master Daren, and the case of Vivian's death poisoned by you using cyanide is reopened," explained Inspector Barra mercilessly.Charlie was so dumbfounded, he rounded his pupils to perfection."No, that's not true! I never planned such a murder!" said Charlie, h
"Just what, Daren?" asked Varro, eager to hear Daren's reasoning. "I just want to take advantage of the situation. Daren can't go back to the woman who hurt his feelings. What Laura did back then was outrageous! And until now, I can't forgive her," Daren said. Hearing Daren's answer, Varro was relieved. He thought that Daren really wanted to reconcile with Laura. "So, why don't you just throw Laura in jail?" Again, Varro asked. "No need, father, just let her go free. After all, even if she is free, her life will never be at peace. Yes, think of it as payback for Laura helping Daren," Daren said. "Okay then," said Varro. Varro left the ward after making sure his son's condition had improved considerably. Meanwhile, Laura stepped into the hospital ward with a beaming face.Laura was going to see how Daren, her ex-husband, was faring there.Now that Charlie, her husband, was in jail, Laura felt very happy. "Soon I'll be Daren's wife," Laura said to herself, so confident was she.
One week had passed.Daren stood in front of the mirror, today was the day he and his father were most looking forward to. "I hope today's event goes well," Daren said hopefully. Daren was dashing and handsome. At exactly ten o'clock in the morning, the Davidson Group of Companies would be inaugurating the launch of a new product. Although the problems at the branch company had not been resolved, sales were still sluggish. The new product launch had to go ahead so that Daren could focus on his new venture that he had put off. "Where are you, Naumi?" asked Daren after his phone was answered by the woman who was now his girlfriend. "I'm already here, darling, at your company," Naumi replied. Three days ago, after Daren's condition had improved. He went to London to pick up Naumi, explaining everything that had happened. Thankfully, Naumi understood Daren's reasons for using Laura for Daren's benefit. In addition to the launch of the new product, Daren planned to announce his rel
Daren and Naumi stood on stage confidently, ready to announce their relationship. Daren believes now is the perfect time to show off Naumi as his girlfriend, as well as his future wife.Daren and Naumi look at each other and smile. Naumi was very happy tonight. "Attention please," said Daren, he was still holding Naumi's hand. "In addition to inaugurating a new product, I also want to announce something very important to me," said Daren."The woman standing next to me is..."DOR, DOR, DOR! Namin, suddenly the sound of gunfire echoed through the room. Before Daren could react, Naumi fell to the floor with blood pouring from her stomach."Naumi!" shouted Daren frantically, kneeling beside Naumi who lay limp.The bodyguards in the room immediately moved to look for the mysterious shooter, but the shooter managed to escape quickly."You guys take Naumi to the hospital, now!" Daren ordered. Naumi's mother and father were shocked to see their daughter shot. So was Varro. This terrible in
Daren sat by Naumi's bedside, his eyes fixed on the girl who was lying weakly. His hand held Naumi's hand tightly, as if to give her strength. Daren's face looked pale and tired, he had been looking after Naumi for three days."Naumi, come on ... open your eyes. How long will you keep sleeping, huh? Aren't we planning to get married?" Daren whispered. Although there was no love in his heart for Naumi. However, Daren also couldn't bear to see Naumi's weak and helpless condition like this.At that moment, the door to the VIP ward where Naumi was being treated opened and Varro immediately entered the room. His face looked serious, and his steps looked heavy. Perhaps it was time for Varro to say something that had been plaguing his mind at the moment. "Daren, we need to talk," Varro said in a heavy voice.Daren turned to his father, "What is it, Dad? Any word on who shot Naumi?" asked Daren, he had been so focused at the hospital that he hadn't had time to investigate who had shot the w
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. "
