A faint smile was perfectly etched on the face of a woman who now felt her mission had succeeded.

"I'll take the day off today. I'll stay with you until you feel better," said Catherine, flashing her sweet smile at Angelica. Suddenly, the woman had experienced a health attack after returning from the restaurant. The diagnosis was that she had eaten food that was forbidden.

Innocently, Angelica returned the smile, still clearly considering Catherine as her own best friend.

She didn't even hesitate to hug the woman, not harboring even a bit of suspicion in her heart.

Angelica saw Catherine as one of the people who cared about her, hoping for happiness to continually shine on her face.

In fact, far from all that, Catherine was just a woman who desperately wanted Angelica's life to be ruined, as ruined as possible, just like her heart that had been shattered by that woman all this time.

"I will take back what should have been mine," Catherine muttered in her heart.

    Angelica prepared before 7 PM, which was the time she had agreed with Kevin to have dinner together.Richard, who had just arrived after spending the whole day at the office, immediately approached Angelica to make sure her condition was indeed better or otherwise.The man's forehead suddenly wrinkled when he found Angelica all dressed up beautifully in her midnight blue dress."Wow! You look very beautiful and stunning wearing that dress, Angelica," Richard complimented the woman.Angelica turned, not expecting the man to come home at a time when she hadn't prepared to give answers to any possibilities of what Richard might say."Thank you, Richard."Angelica replied briefly, letting Richard walk over to her."You look so neat and ready to go out. Are you trying to leave?" Richard asked, looking intently at the woman.Without hesitation, Angelica then nodded her head, confirming all the questions that came from the man's mouth."Seriously?" Richard asked again to make sure.Angelica

    Brandon sighed. He couldn't believe what was going through his mind right now.His body felt shattered, hurting in a short time, remembering everything that had happened lately.Being too busy with the work Richard had given him to cure his arrogant sister, Angelica, had caused Brandon to neglect his own bankrupt company.Brandon sat up straight after previously lying flat on the bed."I can't keep being trapped in this situation. I should be able to do something to restore the company my late grandfather left behind," Brandon muttered, feeling the burden in his mind growing heavier.He let out a long sigh, thinking about what he might be able to do.Some of the people currently around him who had great influence in the business world could potentially have an impact on him.Even when he didn't have any business-related work relationships, Ariana had assumed he already had a much better life.So what if that actually became true?There was a good chance that his late grandfather's com

    Brianna flashed a smile at the man.She understood why he might say such a thing.With anxiety still lingering within her, Brianna straightened up and gestured for the man to sit directly across from her."Please have a seat first, Mr. Brandon. You'll feel more at ease when you're more comfortable," Brianna said gently.The smile that appeared on her face momentarily stunned Brandon before he finally came to his senses and decided to follow the woman's words."I apologize if I made everything seem excessive. I didn't mean to make you think I was toying with you. I did all this because there's something I wanted to discuss with you, sir."Brandon furrowed his brow, feeling the woman was being too roundabout and not getting straight to the point clearly and sequentially.She shouldn't need to beat around the bush like this.Seeming to understand the irritation enveloping Brandon, the woman smiled again and explained her intentions as a sigh was heard."Since our discussion the other day

    Brianna arranged another meeting with Brandon.This time, she planned for them to meet at a restaurant known for its luxury in the city.Brandon wanted to say she shouldn't do something so excessive.However, he felt he shouldn't voice that opinion.The man could only nod, agreeing to everything Brianna said.Brandon looked at his reflection in the mirror in his room. Tonight, he was wearing formal attire.A black shirt with sleeves rolled up to the elbows paired with dark gray trousers looked good on him.A rather long sigh escaped his lips. He wasn't sure what else was making Brandon doubt everything.Sometimes, he wondered if the decision he made was right or not.Ding!A message notification successfully diverted Brandon's attention, making him look at his phone which lit up.[This one?]-AngelicaA photo of a medicine bottle was sent to Brandon.

    "Can you drive faster? I'm in a hurry right now," Brandon said, hoping his words wouldn't be in vain.The ride-share driver, focused on the road, merely nodded to acknowledge Brandon's request.Brandon let out a long sigh. He couldn't understand how all this had happened.He had given Angelica the correct medication, so why had she lost consciousness?Brandon leaned back in his seat, trying to calm himself and figure out why this had occurred.As his mind wandered, he suddenly remembered their last interaction. Angelica had asked about what would happen if someone took more than the recommended dose of medication.Damn! Brandon only now realized the significance of Angelica's words. He should have understood earlier to prevent this from happening.His preoccupation with his new business affairs had made Brandon overlook Angelica's behavior, even though she was currently his responsibility."Excuse me, sir. We've arrived at the destination," the driver said, snapping Brandon out of his

    Brandon deliberately stopped walking. He knew the woman wouldn't let him go even if he tried to ignore her."Why didn't you come? I asked you to come, didn't I?!" Ariana snapped, glaring at him.Brandon responded to her anger with a furrowed brow, deliberately folding his arms across his chest. He stared back at her just as intensely."Stop looking at me like that! You have no right to look down on me!" Ariana declared, feeling insulted by Brandon's gaze.A smirk clearly appeared at the corner of Brandon's lips. That was precisely his intention in giving her such a look."Who do you think you are? Why should I come and meet you? What right do you have to order me around?" Brandon fired back with a series of questions that left Ariana speechless.She hadn't expected him to speak to her like that."Stop talking nonsense, Brandon! You know what's been happening lately, don't you?! Explain to me, what have you done to my brother, Ryan?!" Ariana shouted, leaving Brandon confused.He didn't

    Brandon opened his eyes when he faintly heard noisy sounds coming from the entrance of the hospital room.His eyes suddenly opened wide as he saw several people entering to check on the current condition of the woman who was still lying weakly in the hospital."Honey? How did you end up like this? What happened to you?" asked Kevin, who had just arrived with Jose behind him.The woman seemed to be observing Angelica from afar, specifically at the end of her stretcher.The rapid breathing indicated how Kevin's feelings were racing at that moment. He really couldn't believe what he was seeing right now.Angelica's condition, lying unconscious, made the man furious, especially at the man who had been entrusted to take care of her all this time."Bastard! What did you do to Angelica?! Were you trying to kill her?!"Kevin glared fiercely at Brandon, who at that time didn't understand at all what was happening.His brow furrowed, questioning Kevin's emotion directed at him.Feeling that Bra

    After all the commotion was successfully controlled by Brianna.The woman appeared to turn towards Brandon, she was about to step closer to the man but Jose quickly followed her steps.Jose seemed to put on a worried expression, making Brianna suddenly clench her fist."Are you alright, Mr. Brandon?" asked Jose while holding the man's body with great concern."I'm fine, Mr. Jose.""Let me help treat your wounds, Mr. Brandon," said Jose, looking hurriedly for supplies to treat the man's injuries.With great dexterity, the man searched and began to treat Brandon's wounds. As someone who greatly admired Brandon, Jose felt happy to be able to help the man."Tell me if what I'm doing makes you feel more pain," said Jose as he applied the cotton with betadine.Brianna looked away, trying to control herself so as not to appear too close to Brandon, remembering that she had to be professional this time."Thank you, Miss Brianna. You came just in time and reminded me," said Richard approaching

    All day long, Ariana was in her room. She kept shedding tears, so sad that Brandon had left her. They were going to get married soon, but why did something so unwanted have to happen?"Why did you decide to leave me, Brandon? Can't you just give me one chance?"Ariana kept trying to call him, but until now, Brandon hadn't picked up the phone. Many times Ariana made calls, but still Brandon had no intention of picking up the phone from her. However, Ariana doesn't want to give up so easily. She would keep trying to call Brandon until he picked up the phone.Feeling annoyed because she had tried several times to call, Ariana rudely threw her cell phone in all directions, so angry with the man who did not want to pick up the phone from her."Shit! What do you want from me, Brandon? How can you ignore me like this!" Ariana screamed in her room, letting out her emotions to everyone around her.Eli, who was outside the room, was worried and saddened by Ariana's situation. He had tried to pe

    Brandon flashed a smile. He could of course deduce from his mother's lucky question that she was really worried about him. Brandon was grateful to have a mother who loved him so much and was always there when he was in trouble."Brandon is fine, Mom. There's no need to worry," Brandon finally said.Brandon's mom nodded her head, truly relieved that nothing major had happened to Brandon. The middle-aged woman put down the fruit she had bought before deciding to return to the room. After putting the fruits down, she pulled out the chair next to Angelica and began to sit on it."Oh yeah, I just saw Ariana. Why didn't she leave quickly? Did she come here already?"Apparently Brandon's mother still didn't know that Brandon had actually remembered everything. The man didn't want to accept back Ariana who had betrayed him. Even though she had tried to change, Brandon couldn't accept her back. If it was just to forgive, Brandon would have forgiven, but if it was to return, don't expect Brando

    "Brandon, what do you mean?"With her heart pounding, Ariana approached the bed where Brandon was being treated. She was a little worried; if he remembered everything now, then what about him? Would he leave her?Angelica remained where she was, looking at Brandon and Ariana in turn. Of course, she also felt curious about what had happened to Brandon. Why did he suddenly seem to have forbidden Ariana to come? Hadn't they been so close the past few days? In fact, Angelica had seen the two of them making out in the living room."What are you doing here, Ariana? I didn't ask for your presence at all," Brandon insisted, glaring disapprovingly at the woman who was now walking towards him. I don't know why she was here all of a sudden, when their relationship had been over for quite some time."I don't understand what you're saying, Brandon. Aren't we...""We're not in a relationship anymore, Ariana. And aren't you ashamed to come here after what you did to me?" cut in Brandon quickly, glar

    Brandon's mother came out of the house with an inexplicable feeling; worry was overwhelming her. She was so worried about Brandon's condition. Why was he suddenly in the hospital? Didn't he ask permission to go to a café earlier? Then why was the call from the hospital suddenly saying that Brandon had been in an accident?Brandon's mother continued to run towards the highway, hoping to find a taxi that would take her quickly to the hospital.Angelica, who happened to be leaving the house, frowned when she saw Brandon's mother in a hurry. She looked confused at Brandon's mother. Quickly, Angelica decided to approach her, especially now that the middle-aged woman looked so hurried that it made Angelica feel a little worried."Tante, what's wrong?" asked Angelica as she tapped Brandon's mother on the shoulder.Brandon's mother instantly turned her head when she felt her shoulder being held. The middle-aged woman was almost in tears when she said it. "Brandon had an accident, Miss Angelic

    The unsuitable meeting with Brandon made Ariana feel upset, but she would still try to get Brandon's mother to approve their relationship to the level of marriage.After meeting with Brandon at the cafe, she decided to go home. She had no intention of going anywhere, as she was currently feeling upset and in an uncomfortable mood.Ariana climbed the stairs as soon as she got home, but her steps were immediately halted when suddenly someone called her. That someone was none other than Rian; surely her brother was curious about the look on her face right now."Did something happen, Ariana? You looked so happy earlier, but now your face looks dull."Rian looked suspiciously at the woman who had just arrived. Of course she could guess what had happened to the woman, considering how she had reacted before leaving, and now the dull face she showed when she had just returned indicated something had happened to her.Ariana sighed. She turned to Rian, whose hands were currently folded over his

    "Have a seat, Ariana."Brandon pulled out a chair for Ariana so that she sat across from him. Ariana nodded, feeling happy for the attention Brandon was giving her. Was he doing this because he was going to marry her soon? Imagining that made Ariana feel calm. She nodded and sat down in the chair provided by Brandon."I'm sorry if I made you wait so long, Brandon," Ariana said after sitting in the chair, looking at Brandon guiltily for making him wait. Ariana was sure that Brandon must have waited a long time, considering he was still talking to Ryan, his younger brother.Brandon just nodded and decided to sit back in his chair. After that, he called a waiter to immediately prepare food for the two of them."What would you like to order, Ariana?" asked Brandon after receiving the menu book from the waiter. He then handed one of the menu books to Ariana.Ariana immediately grabbed the menu book offered by Brandon and read all the options in the cafe. After finding the menu she wanted,

    After telling his mother everything about getting married, Brandon felt a little relieved. At least, his mother already knew that Ariana wanted to get married, it's just that his mother still didn't agree with rushing to decide to get married. Currently, Brandon was at a cafe quite close to Ariana's house. He decided to meet with her and talk about this, hoping that she would understand. After all, he himself was still not ready to take things to a more serious level. Meanwhile, Ariana, who was still at home, was wearing make-up with a smile on her face. She was happy that she would soon be married to Brandon, especially after he expressed his wishes. She was sure that Brandon would talk about their wedding at the café. Still in her room, Ariana wore quite a bit of make-up, hoping that even with the light make-up, Brandon would always be mesmerized by her. As Ariana was getting dressed, someone suddenly opened the door. She had no intention of turning around because she was too fo

    After Ariana's departure, Brandon was silent on the couch, thinking about what they had talked about this time. She already wanted to marry him, and Brandon, ready or not, had to tell his mother this. After all, they had been engaged for quite some time, which meant it was appropriate for them to take things to a more serious level."Will I eventually marry Ariana?"Brandon was pensive as he stared out the window. His mind was currently completely occupied with Ariana's request for marriage. They couldn't possibly continue like this without a more definite bond. Although it was only an engagement, they had been engaged for quite some time.Brandon sighed, a little annoyed by what he was thinking. Honestly, the man still had no plans to get married. However, he also couldn't possibly keep making promises to Ariana. She might turn and leave him, looking for someone more serious, and Brandon certainly didn't want that to happen."What should I do?"Hearing the sound of the car that had j

    "Does Angelica come here often?"It was only after Angelica's departure that Ariana asked Brandon. Of course, she was quite surprised by Angelica's sudden arrival, and she had even interrupted her moment of intimacy with Brandon. How could she just walk in without knocking first, something he had never imagined before.Brandon was a little uncomfortable with the questions Ariana had just asked about Angelica. He knew that Angelica had just made a mistake, but did Ariana have to talk about her?Brandon was silent for a moment, trying to find the right words so that Ariana wouldn't suspect him. After all, he didn't have a special relationship with Angelica either and had never had feelings for her."She's my patient, Ariana. You don't need to worry about that."Those seemed to be the right words for Brandon to say at the moment, hoping that the woman beside him would understand and not prolong the matter, despite his efforts.Hearing the words that Brandon had just said, made Ariana sil
