Aarav was too surprised to get the question that Hansen was pointing at.For a few moments, there was nothing for Aarav to do but think about what the right answer would be in return to that question. Aarav did not expect that Watson actually did the bluff that was said to Hansen, only because Aarav was getting bad treatment.Hansen looked at Aarav with narrowed eyes. He shows more and more suspicion towards Aarav."Why are you silent, Aarav?" asked Hansen after seeing Aarav unable to answer anything.Aarav still has no answer to say."If you tell me your restaurant just came back, it means your restaurant was still confiscated by the bank this morning." Hansen kept saying sentences trying to corner Aarav.But Aarav tries to stay calm. Now, he knew why Hansen had come and went to the extent of finding out the address of the restaurant. Because facing someone like Hansen, who already had thoughts of him, would not be easily shaken."So that's your reason for finding out about my restau
With the remaining money in Aarav's account, now Aarav is moving his residence.Aarav has already rented an apartment in a remote area. The size is not too big or luxurious. He had just moved some of his belongings at Ella's house—a while ago Ella contacted him to pick up his belongings at the place where they lived together.The rest of Aarav's belongings were still outside the apartment, before he could call for help. Her body is very tired today. Aarav had already bought a set of mattresses and sofas—the most important parts for him at the moment."Why do I feel like I have less energy today?" muttered Aarav as he lay down on the sofa in the living room.Aarav looked resignedly at the turned off television in front of him. For some reason, Aarav doesn't want to do anything anymore. Even to turn on the television just feels lazy.Meanwhile on the other hand, near the sofa in the living room of this apartment, Aarav saw his desk which had several documents on it. He intends to submit
According to what Aarav and Watson had suspected last night, a news article about the return of Kedai La' Encanto managed to stir up the internet.Aarav had read this morning. Pros and cons that internet users say via trending twitter. But most of them are enthusiastic about Kedai La' Encanto's new menus. For them, they had all been waiting for a very long time to see the arrival of the tavern again."The customer who comes for one week straight is the suspect who spread bad news about my shop?"Today, Aarav is in presence of Darius. He had come to La' Encanto because he wanted to talk about the conversation he had with Watson last night.After Aarav told him about someone who was suspected of being the reason bad news was spreading about his tavern, Darius looked like he couldn't believe it. But Aarav still shows his seriousness and shows he is not joking."You ... say what nonsense?" Darius chuckled which even sounded awkward to Aarav's ears.In front of Darius, Aarav sighed heavily
Instantly the look on William's face which was originally excited turned to worry. he seems to be restless about what Aarav will say."You... going to say what?" he asked.Aarav was silent for a few seconds, watching William in detail and intensely. He deliberately wanted to emit an intimidating aura so that William felt that he would not be able to move."If you are a loser," Aarav replied. "Are you the only one having a hard time? If you did something bad for your family, why don't you do something else for your family?"William didn't budge. I don't know what to think.Then at the end he replied, "I can, but it's the fastest way to make money."Darius suddenly laughed and shook his head. Darius had been holding himself back so as not to give any reaction. Meanwhile Aarav looks at her in shock."So you want to benefit yourself by sacrificing my tavern?" asked Darius. In an instant, the friendliness was gone. His eyes turned sharp and gave off a different aura. "Hey, you ... are you
[STARTLING! REVEALED THE ACTUAL PAGEMAN BEHIND THE LA' ENCANTO SHOP TWO YEARS AGO!][A MAN ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE HAD BEEN TAKEN BY A PARTY TO BRING DOWN LA' ENCANTO'S KEDAI][KEDAI LA' ENCANTO BREAKS BACK, WHAT ARE THE NEW MENU WILL BE PRESENTED Darius?][TWO YEARS DIMMED, KEDAI LA' ENCANTO COLLABORATES WITH OUR PREMIERE STEAK RESTAURANT! BRINGING NEW AND PREMIUM OPTIONS TO THE MENU!]The three titles on the newspaper made Aarav smile with satisfaction as he read them. It's been a week since he and Darius visited William's address—which turned out to be divorced from his wife, so many newspapers published.Almost all of the newspapers mentioned Kedai La' Encanto. Whether it's a culinary newspaper or gossip news, the name Kedai La' Encanto has really become popular.One day after Aarav and Darius struck a deal with William, William finally agreed to give confirmation to the media. The news spread so quickly that all the media covered William's confirmation.The case of Kedai La' Encanto
Actually Aarav never hated anyone even though those people treated him very condescendingly.Too bad. The second Aarav realized that the man who was coming towards him now was Ezraf, then there was Ella appearing out of nowhere behind this man, Aarav just realized. His heart was still very hot when he witnessed the togetherness between Ezraf and Ella. He was angry, for the first time.Aarav knows when he is angry with something, it means that something has gone beyond normal limits.Ella's question has not been answered by Aarav at all. Both Ella and Aarav both froze and looked at each other. Somehow how Aarav looks now in front of Ella. But certainly, the look of hatred from the woman was already telling.Ah, jeez. I thought you had gone too far from this territory, Aarav. Ella added her sentence again, which she didn't care whether to hurt Aarav's pride or not.Aarav immediately hid his hands which automatically clenched into fists. Even though the last time he had met Ella, he had
"With guilt, I apologize for the commotion I caused."In the end Aarav ends up in the restaurant manager's room where the fight between Marcolin and Ezraf takes place.A while ago, Aarav deliberately asked Marcolin to meet the restaurant manager. Because there's no way the news of the commotion that happened on the second floor didn't spread to the manager's ears. Moreover, Aarav still has to maintain the image of Watson and Darius as the owner of Kedai La' Encanto.So Aarav is now standing in front of Pharrell—a restaurant manager who is watching him seriously."Sorry for the commotion just now, Mr. Pharrell. I didn't expect it and planned for it." Aarav replied to Marcolin's words, who had apologized to Pharrell.Pharrell was still propping his chin with his fists. His eyebrows had been furrowed the whole time he was watching Aarav. I don't know what Pharrell was thinking, because it felt like something was being considered.Aarav was just guessing silently."Aren't you going to say
One week has passed finally.After the hype about Kedai La' Encanto's comeback to the public, Aarav felt that things were going pretty easy. Internet users who were initially against the emergence of taverns, gradually gave their support and enthusiasm.Moreover, there was confirmation from William that the bad news case two years ago about Kedai La' Encanto was fake. William's only contrivance to bring down the tavern.Everyone flocked to show their impatience at Kedai La' Encanto's website, which had just been launched a week ago. Especially in culinary forums.That way, Aarav won't have to worry too much about marketing his restaurant. Because Kedai La' Encanto has even attracted the attention of culinary connoisseurs and past customers. But something that has been on Aarav's mind is how to balance Kedai La' Encanto so that it won't be embarrassing when they both release.For one week in a row, barely sleeping, Aarav and Darius have been busy preparing an interesting collaborative
Aarav's senses became uneasy after seeing the arrival of the two strangers.When the two men's car had disappeared completely and Helena, the articles editor, had walked in, Aarav hurriedly got out of the car. Benzala and Robert walked behind Aarav, keeping an eye on the surroundings as they walked down the path of Helena's yard.When Helena's footsteps reached the door, Aarav immediately stopped walking. This made Benzala and Robert stop their steps as well.Aarav was deliberately silent for a split second because he knew Helena was aware of his presence. Helena's head slowly turned back and was somewhat surprised by Aarav's arrival.Benzala and Robert stiffened at Helena's sharp, wary gaze."Miss Helena?" called Aarav in a cautious voice.Helena watched Aarav through eyes that seemed to guess who Aarav was. After a few seconds, Helena - with a calm gesture - took a deep breath and exhaled."Who are you?" she asked. One hand silently moved to the back of her body. "How do you know my
The holographic light screen in front of Aarav's face suddenly appeared. Aarav was startled and stopped himself from standing up from the living room chair. When he realized that the hologram screen was faintly displaying Watson's figure, Aarav suddenly panicked.Aarav's situation was now in the middle of Benzala, Robert, and Vito. He couldn't possibly communicate with Watson through the system in front of all of them. They wouldn't be able to see the system in front of Aarav's face and would suspect something important he was hiding."Why, Aarav? Is there something you need again?" asked Benzala after seeing Aarav sit back down.With an awkward gesture, Aarav tried to find a lie to avoid Benzala's question. When his eyes accidentally glanced at the backyard, Aarav finally found the right excuse."Can I go to the back garden?" Aarav asked Vito.Suddenly Aarav's question surprised Benzala, Vito, and Robert. After Aarav asked the question, Vito was silent for a moment. He looked confuse
"How are Mr. Watson and Darius?" Aarav asked Robert and Benzala who had just arrived at the hospital.After leaving William's secret hideout, Aarav told Robert and Benzala to take Watson and Darius to Aarav's house. Meanwhile, here Aarav is now, standing guard at the hospital during Marcolin's bullet removal surgery."They are fine. But unfortunately, they are still in shock because of the incident where Marcolin was shot," Benzala replied, sitting beside Aarav with a heavy sigh."How was the surgery to remove Marcolin's bullet?" Robert asked after sitting on Aarav's empty left side.Aarav looked up at the crest above the operating room. There the green light was still on, indicating that the operation had not yet been completed."You just look at that sign. It's still on. Marcolin's surgery isn't over yet. The doctor said there are indications of serious infection from the gunshot wound. Especially since the pistol bullet landed right in the spinal cord."Hearing Aarav's statement, R
The operation to remove the bullet in Marcolin's body was successful.On the other hand, Marcolin's condition could not be the same as before due to the spinal cord injury he suffered. Marcolin was unconscious and had to rest completely. That meant Marcolin would not participate in Aarav's plan to avenge his cruel conglomerate allies.Aarav had left Marcolin to be guarded by seven personal bodyguards. Peter was also there so that he could call Aarav if anything dangerous happened.Marcolin's hospitalization room was also VVIP class. Aarav deliberately chose the room because it had a special door that could only be opened using a password."Can you carry out your plan without Marcolin, Aarav?" asked Robert beside Aarav.Aarav with Robert and Benzala in the car. As planned, Aarav was going to the writer's home address. Luckily, Aarav still had the paper given to him by Vito, the editor of the article."I can do that, even though it's really hard," replied Aarav, who was still looking ou

Aarav didn't realize that Marcolin had planned the details so carefully.Moments ago, before entering the operating room, the doctor who handled Marcolin gave him a small tool box. A camera that was so small that it could not be seen. Aarav was actually confused as to why Marcolin kept such a small camera.Now that Aarav was watching on the laptop screen, he was shocked. It contained footage from behind Marcolin's back. Aarav, Benzala, and Robert didn't even realize that Marcolin had secretly placed a camera in his back area.The camera was recording everything. It was very clear.Starting from the moment Marcolin fought with William, William who kicked Marcolin's back - at this moment Aarav somehow believed Marcolin deliberately turned his body, and also included the moment William brandished a gun until Marcolin's body collapsed.There is one scene where Marcolin stands back so that the camera captures William torturing one of the bodyguards in the basement.Watching all these video
"How are Mr. Watson and Darius?" Aarav asked Robert and Benzala who had just arrived at the hospital.After leaving William's secret hideout, Aarav told Robert and Benzala to take Watson and Darius to Aarav's house.

BRAK! BRAK!The sound of loud wood banging could be heard from the door of the room being kicked with force. With his heart racing, Aarav tried to get the door open. Next to Aarav, Peter took turns kicking the door.The door in front of them was the only way out. Before William could escape from Marcolin and Peter's trap, they had to knock down the door immediately.Aarav and Peter's breathing was ragged as sweat dripped from their temples. In front of them, the bolts of the wooden door mounted with a broken padlock had begun to loosen."Is there a tool to break the lock?" asked Aarav between his labored breaths.Robert and Benzala immediately exchanged glances. Benzala, who found it first, asked Marcolin to carry Watson. In a hurry, Benzala grabbed an abandoned fire extinguisher.After bringing the canister to Aarav, Benzala didn't allow Aarav to try it alone. Benzala then held the canister tightly together with Aarav and Peter, Benzala's younger brother."One... two... break it!"On
"Aarav, what the hell is going on?!"Aarav didn't answer Benzala's question at all. After the video call was unilaterally switched off by William, Aarav felt his anger rise that very second. His mind couldn't stop imagining the worst possibilities.Aarav had no idea that William was secretly seeing Watson. Also, who knows how long William had been keeping Darius with Watson. Now, Aarav decided to leave Vito's house. Of course, Vito had already given the address of Leon-the author of the article about Seawolt Dante Company. But Aarav canceled his plan to go to the writer's house."Do you know why Darius can't pick up my calls?" asked Aarav when he was already in the car with Benzala and Robert.Benzala was preparing to fasten her seatbelt to her body. She looked curiously at Aarav."Did something happen to him?" guessed Benzala."Wiliam," Aarav said, pausing as his temper rose. "He came to Mr. Watson and kept him with Darius. I don't know when William came. But he was very anxious to
