They got into the car with Nate driving. On the way to the restaurant, they chatted with each other. But Erica was curious where Nate would take her because she didn't know which restaurant Nate would choose for their dinner. Because Erica let Nate choose the restaurant he wanted.

But, their car headed to the city center where all the luxuries were there. All the buildings, hotels, and restaurants were full of glitter and it amazed Erica, but also made her nervous because she was afraid whether she had enough money to pay for all the food prices at one of the restaurants there.

Nate then took Erica to one of the VVIP restaurants. It was a special restaurant for rich people who spent their money without thinking. And not everyone can rent a place there because the price is expensive.

Erica was surprised to see Nate take her there, she was worried, but she had promised to treat Nate. Erica thought, maybe Nate had never eaten at a fancy restaurant and wanted it so Erica let him have it j

    Erica was frightened by Raymond's threat. Her hands were shaking but she hid them behind her back so that no one would notice. She didn't know how to act in front of Raymond because she was afraid that Raymond would do something bad to her family."You seem to have gone too far," Erica said defensively. "Why are you suddenly coming and bothering us? We never even bothered or hurt you!" Erica exclaimed. Her eyes were red with tears, but she tried to stay strong because she didn't want to be further humiliated by Nancy and Raymond."Your mistake was marrying a poor, stupid man like Nate," Nancy said, still taunting Nate. "If you were married to a rich and dignified man, you wouldn't be treated like this, Erica.""But that's none of your business...."Nate glanced at Raymond and Nancy, and remained calm while looking around the menu as if he didn't care about Raymond's existence and threats. Because he knew, whoever tried to disturb him, they would never get away with it and would be pun

He just kept staring at the restaurant manager because he knew that the restaurant manager knew his true identity and would not dare to disturb him.

    Erica was scared to death because her cell phone suddenly rang and a woman screamed from the bathroom stall, making her body tremble violently. She struggled to turn off the call many times until she managed to turn off her cell phone.She took a deep breath, but it seemed that the woman outside was not happy because they thought that Erica was eavesdropping on their conversation, or worse, they thought that Erica was recording their conversation."Who's inside?!" she shouted so loudly that it scared Erica. Her hands were shaking as she hugged her cell phone and she didn't know what to do. Her mind was so muddled that she couldn't think straight. All she could do was stand at the end of the booth praying they would leave quickly and not do anything bad.What should I do? Erica thought to herself.Until she no longer heard the knocking on the door. Erica felt a little more relieved because she thought they had left.

    "Why?" asked Nate, confused by what the guard had said.He just wanted to enter the monitoring room to see the CCTV footage there to find out where Erica had gone. So that Nate could find out what happened to his wife who suddenly disappeared and did not return after more than an hour in the restroom."Because this is a place that cannot be visited by just anyone," he said."Just anyone how? I already told you that my wife is missing and I only found a bag in the restroom. I want to see the CCTV to make sure where she went. Is that wrong? After all, I'm a customer here. Of course, I can go inside," Nate insisted.The only thing he could do was look at the CCTV footage. He couldn't go to the police station because it hadn't been one twenty-four hours. So the police would not act. Moreover, Erica was an adult woman who clearly had the right to travel and could take care of herself."I'm not sure if you are a customer here. Are you serious that your wife is missing? Because this is a fan

    "WHAT?!" Nate yelled as one of the women who came out of the toilet shouted at him and accused him of peeping when he had done nothing but look for his wife's whereabouts.Nate, who had been desperate because of Erica's disappearance, could not say anything when she pushed him hard and pointed at his face while cursing him."You perverted man! Are you crazy to peek into a woman's restroom so blatantly like that? I think you're out of your mind!" she yelled while gyrating her waist.Nate didn't understand why she was calling him that when he was just standing next to the restroom door and not looking in. He had manners and knew that peeking was embarrassing and he shouldn't have done it. And indeed he didn't."Miss, I'm sorry. But I think you misunderstood," Nate tried to explain. Several other women who had come out of the restroom and were about to enter stood there looking questioningly at Nate as if they were trying to convince themselves that Nate was not peeping and was just wait

He was very worried that something bad would happen to him and he couldn't bear to see his wife hurt.He wondered what else he should do to find Erica. Should he drive around again to make sure where Erica was?

She had been drugged by Irene and brought to the hotel by her subordinates. And until now, Erica is still unconscious due to the anesthetic she inhaled.Irene deliberately kidnaps Erica because she is attracted to her. At first, she thought of killing her because Erica was going to tell everyone about the women's auction she was secretly holding at the restaurant. But seeing how beautiful Erica was, Irene thought that Erica might be suitable to be the woman of Alessandro's Mafia."I'm sure I can get more money than the girls I auctioned off before. Mr. Alessandro will definitely be happy and like her," Irene said as she looked at Erica who was still unconscious.Erica had a well-proportioned body, neither skinny nor fat, her curves at the waist were so shapely that men would definitely like her. Her face was very beautiful like a red ros

    The manager ordered the guards to help Nate find Erica's whereabouts. The guards checked every corner of the restaurant and the rest checked the CCTV footage together with Chevron and Nate.But what surprised them was that they didn't find the video where Erica entered the restroom. The footage was lost as Erica made a turn towards the restroom, covered by one of the passing waiters and when they checked the footage in the next place, they didn't find the piece of footage where Erica should have appeared. This was especially strange because Chevron was sitting in front of the surveillance cameras all the time so it was impossible for anyone to tamper with the footage."This can't be happening. How could she just disappear," Chevron said with his mouth agape. "I swear I sat here the whole time checking the monitors.""Then how did this happen?" asked Nate."Oh! Was it when I approached you in the restroom during the argument? I took the other guards with me so there was no one to guard

He was confused about whether he should ask and tell Morgan about his relationship with Erica, which was currently on the rocks. It's been a few days, even more than a week they fought and Nate doesn't know what he should do to make their relationship better again.Morgan frowned in confusion because Nate was suddenly silent and did not continue his words and instead daydreamed. Lately, she felt that Nate looked very sad."Sir, what did you want to ask? Why are you suddenly silent?" Morgan asked."Oh! Yeah, I... I wanted to ask you something about....""About Miss Erica?" asked Morgan, who quickly interrupted Nate's speech. She smiled when she saw the surprise on

    That day, Erica had a lot of work to do. After being dropped off by Nate, she went straight to her office, preparing some documents before she attended a meeting at nine in the morning with the staff. They were also discussing the ongoing evaluation.Erica organized everything as best she could so that no mistakes would be made and everyone would get a good score on their evaluations. Because Erica didn't want any bad comments about her staff where her grandmother was. Because that would show what kind of leader Erica was in the company and how she managed her office staff.Because if the office staff had bad evaluations, of course, it was the leader who had the problem. And if that happens, it is not impossible for her grandmother to revoke Erica's position as CEO of the Starry White company.Erica had earned the position of CEO at the Starry White company with the persistence and hard work that she had done desperately.
