"Take a break!"Audi came in carrying a tray in her hands.Currently, Xavier looked as usual with his expressionless face observing the contents of the woman's room."If you don't remember, don't force yourself."Audi placed the tray in her hands right on the nightstand next to her bed.The woman then approached the man sitting on the edge of his bed, looking through the box of cardboard containing items from the past."All of this? Real?"Audi rolled her eyes. "Come on, like I'm joking!"The woman seemed to pout in annoyance. After tangible evidence was there, the man still considered it all just a fabrication."I just found out that all photos and writings can be fabricated. Even there, it's very clear how the photos are aging due to time."Xavier didn't respond. He was focused on all the photos there."Hey! Don't touch my photos alone!"Audi quickly snatched some photos that only contained herself. "Why?" Xavier asked with his usual expression."Well... you're only allowed to look
Zavier arrived at Baxier's office with a beaming smile still on his face. As the middle-aged man stepped out of the car, Victor respectfully welcomed him."Good morning, Sir! I've sent the exact number of employees you requested."While greeting him politely, Victor reported the tasks that he was supposed to complete."Excellent, Victor. You've shown commendable progress. I'm pleased to see you changing your previously detrimental attitude towards the company."Victor nodded with a forced smile.Although Zavier was aware of Victor's lingering resentment, the middle-aged man seemed to ignore it. It was common for him to encounter employees who disliked their superiors, especially those who pretended to be pleasant. This was not a significant issue for Zavier."Has Mark arrived early?" Zavier asked, acknowledged by Victor.The man then took something out of the paper bag in his hand."He's waiting in the lobby, Sir. Oh, and I bought your favorite hot coffee latte for you, Sir."Zavier l
Zavier restarted his car's engine and headed towards the direction of his mansion. A satisfied smile was evident on the middle-aged man's face. He then tuned in to the car radio, enjoying the quiet morning drive with soothing music.A faint hum escaped the middle-aged man's lips. "I'm truly grateful for all of this. All the employees must be so happy after getting that bonus," he mused.Zavier felt content as his luxury car smoothly navigated the capital's streets. Despite its age, he confidently overtook other cars. His driving skills, honed during his youth as a leader in motorcycle and car gangs, were unquestionable.As Zavier approached a convenience store, he pressed the brakes, only to find them non-responsive. "What's happening? Why are the brakes suddenly not working?!" Despite the alarming situation, he tried to stay calm.With trembling hands, Zavier attempted to call his son using his phone, still driving without any ability to brake. "I need to inform Xavier." He persisten
Audi seemed so devoted to being by Xavier's side. Not once did she leave the man alone."Have a drink first. Do you want to eat something? You've only had a sandwich for breakfast since morning. Have some food. It's not good in this condition to have no energy intake."Xavier shook his head firmly, indicating his disagreement with the woman's statement.Seeing that, Audi could only sigh deeply.There was nothing she could do when the man rejected every offer from her.The operating room light continued to be red, indicating that the surgery was not yet finished.They had been waiting in front for over an hour.Currently, Xavier's face was getting paler, leaving Audi with her own heartache, feeling unable to bear seeing Xavier's current condition."Uncle Zavi, please wake up, Uncle. I really can't bear to see Xavier's current condition. Uncle Zavi has to wake up."Audi murmured in her heart.A drop on one side of her cheek made her quickly wipe it away. She didn't want to appear weak i
Ring! Ring!Notification sounds keep coming into Victor's phone.Unlike others who might find the noisy alerts bothersome, he instead flashes a wide smile upon receiving all those notifications."I know. They surely won't donate less than 50 million."True. Victor intentionally shared the sad news about Zavier's accident with their colleagues at the big company."This is unexpected fortune. I managed to get rid of that troublesome old man and also made money without having to take it from this trashy company."Victor grins, deciding to activate the automatic reply on his phone."Now I can be a hero for Elnora and indulge in the fruits of my efforts."Victor then hurries to the boutique where his lover is.Even on the way, colleagues continue to send large money transfers as their condolences to Zavier."Haha... fooling them all brings great joy. I'm confident this will be enough to pay all of Elnora's bills and cover my living expenses for some time."Victor drives at a moderate speed
With great care, Xavier opened Zavier's hospital room door.The initial sight Xavier encountered was Audi, deeply asleep while holding Zavier's hand.She seemed undisturbed sleeping at an angle in a seated position."Daddy was right. You're a good person. I shouldn't have been harsh on you."Xavier sensed another side emerging within him. However, to maintain the firm and cold image he had long established, he wouldn't openly show acceptance.He halted his steps near Zavier's bed, precisely behind the peacefully sleeping woman.A long exhale escaped Xavier's mouth as he noticed Audi's pale face. He also realized she occasionally appeared disturbed in her sleep. It seemed Xavier knew what her issue was.He then reached into his pocket, contacting none other than his right-hand, Zeyn.Shortly after, Zeyn arrived. Xavier signaled him to keep his voice low."I need to take Audi to get some food. She can't sleep hungry like this. Please ensure Daddy is in a safe haven. I don't want to hear
"Slow down, Xavier! Wait for me!"Audi tried to match her steps with the man now far ahead of her.Despite Audi's fear, it couldn't prompt her to catch up with the man's broad strides."What's going on?! Why is he running so fast?"Audi attempted to understand the sudden departure of the man.Even though she barely heard Zeyn's words from the phone, Xavier had already concluded something that now urged him to leave."Wait! If that sentence makes Xavier run back to the hospital like this, it means there's a connection to Uncle Zavi. Uncle Zavi means..."Realizing it all, Audi quickly accelerated her pace.Now she was sure something had happened to the middle-aged man.Look, Xavier was like a possessed person unable to control himself."I need to get to Uncle Zavi's room immediately. Something must have happened there."Bam!Without considering what was inside, Xavier forcefully broke through the door.His breath roared, followed by Audi, who, in a similar state, patted Xavier's back as
Victor was so happy with all his achievements. His gaze then shifted to a woman lying only covered by a thick blanket right beside him."I can get any woman just by relying on my intelligence. You're very smart, Victor."The man seemed to praise himself. Victor certainly felt proud because by making Elnora feel indebted to him, all his requests would surely be fulfilled by her.It wasn't a big deal for Victor to spend a lot on Elnora because everything was easily obtainable for him."150 million. Wow! This is the largest transfer amount sent by a colleague in Baxier."A sly smile now appeared on Victor's face.With just the broadcast message mode on his chat app, he could now earn hundreds of millions at once."I'm wealthy. I can do anything I want."Ping!A notification from a foreign number suddenly appeared on Victor's phone.However, not from his usual phone, but from the old one he deliberately bought to assist his mission.There was only one number stored on that phone, his enfo
