However, what was a hope turned into reality.
When the gate opened, Mary found Roland smiling broadly at her.
"So, this is your plan?" asked Roland.
“Roland….”
“Where are you going, huh?!”
When Roland was about to approach Mary, a car parked behind Roland's car. Mary's eyes reflexively shifted to the presence of Satria, who was also stunned by watching this latest drama.
“What did you do to Mary!” Satria snapped.
Roland turned his head and stared at him like an eagle about to tear its prey apart.
"Who are you?! I have nothing to do with you! What do you want to do to this slut!”
“Hey, watch your mouth. Don't call her a whore when you are also using her and taking advant

Eddie can't be resuscitated, as mom said, he's an adult, Bas. I hope that with what I have said, you can accept it and be tolerant. The pain is definitely there, but it will hurt even more if you keep waiting for it, Bas..."Charlie smiled, he took a deep breath. His gaze returned to everyone at the dining table. Lea stroked his back gently while trying to give Charlie strength."No mom. Bas didn't wait for Mary, the feeling of love was still there but it had been covered with disappointment. Bas just wanted to know whether he was still alive or not, in a way, Bas felt guilty, all of this happened because of Charlie's current condition. But, hopefully after this Charlie can really be sincere and willing to face what has happened. "If he contacts you again later, Bas will leave a message, Ma, or Mama, just call Bas, so the three of us can talk," said Charlie calmly.Tia's sobs became louder and louder. The pain in a mother's heart cannot be expressed when the dau

"I don't know, even if I wasn't caught up in this affair, I'm still not sure if our marriage would survive. As I said, that feeling has completely disappeared, Satria... I'm not a hypocrite, since Charlie was paralyzed, happiness has disappeared and is bland... so, even though I'm not involved in an affair, the possibility that we won't be the same as before will still happen. , Knight….."Mary stared blankly at the window, observing every foreign and local tourist still wandering the streets."It turns out you are selfish, aren't you, Mary," said Satria.The car went faster and faster, Satria didn't pay attention to Mary who immediately frowned and looked at him questioningly.**"Why am I so anxious, huh?"Roland sat and leaned against the back of the bed. He looked at James who was fast asleep. Since earlier, all Roland had felt was anxiety, who knows where it came from, but Roland's heart was urging him to return to Mary's villa.<

The woman in front of her seemed to look away, maybe Mary was nervous and afraid to see the deadly gaze given by Satria.No conversation took place, Satria pulled the handbrake again and continued his unfinished journey.Mary could only look down, her heart a little doubtful and afraid that Satria would really be brave enough to take her away. He didn't have the courage to ask Satria to cancel this trip, he still needed Charlie's friend to share his sad story.“I feel like I want to give the money and all the assets I have to Charlie. That man is crazy, it would be wrong to marry a woman like you, Sis. Even I, who follows and watches you, can't stand your unpredictable attitude. Sometimes you feel like you want to let go, sometimes you also feel like you want to keep Roland. What's wrong with you? "I'm tired of your way of thinking," said Satria.“At least that is the question that is always present in my head. I don't know why I could have th

James is the same, the lake has started to have excess water, the reservoir is loose, it is out of control. Flash floods could occur if not treated immediately. The two of them who were now looking at each other immediately smiled broadly and ran towards the room quickly.You don't have to wait long, the rocking fight game starts right away. Sweat flows profusely even though you are using the air conditioner. Both of them were surrounded by deadly fire, if only one of them was present with slow movement, there would be a scream and a small blow on the back."Hurry up, bro!" James screamed. Of course, the tone of speech does not necessarily sound like someone who is angry. There's another note in the mix, dropping slightly at the end with a maximum groan as the sway comes back in full swing.“Tasty, darling? Scream!” Roland said loudly. He looked very satisfied because he had completely flooded the lake. The rats managed to get in and break into the l

Every time he travels like this, he doesn't use Mary's private car, he is at the stage of winning back Mary's heart, so as much as possible he doesn't want to show too much about himself taking advantage of Mary's wealth. However, this still had no effect, considering that he had already stolen hundreds of millions of money from each debit card belonging to the 36 year old woman."Ah! I should just take Mary's wallet. I only have one hundred and thirty-five million left now, I have to ask her again tomorrow. It's nice James, of course it won't be enough if I rely on the remaining money! The villa she chose also costs around four twenty-five million for one month. Why do I have to meet a woman as beautiful as James at a critical time like this, anyway?!" Roland complained as he stepped out of the villa gate. A truly unlucky man who only relies on his good looks and sweet mouth.The sound of the main door closing reached Mary's e

Roland looked at him sharply, he then pressed the gas and put the car in gear. Slowly the car drove quickly towards the gas station in front of them."ROLAND! STOP IT ROLAND! DON'T DO THIS! ROLAND!"Roland is still riding the drama perfectly, he won't stop before Mary cancels her desire to separate.The car was getting faster and closer to the gas station, Mary, who was increasingly panicking, finally gave up and said, "I beg you, Roland, stop! I won't leave your side! I beg you!"Just before entering the gas station area, Roland immediately pulled the handbrake, causing the car to stop suddenly.TEET! TEET!The sound of horns and curses from the drivers behind them began to charge. However, Roland didn't pay attention to that. His heart was very satisfied because the drama he created succe

"Where are you, Nanda?"This was the third time Vera asked Mary the same thing. Since earlier, Mary had been silent because she was confused about how to answer. Meanwhile, Roland's eyes widened as he told Mary to immediately answer her mother's question."Mary Ananda, are you listening to what I'm asking?"The sentence had become full of emotion, the soft voice accompanied by crying could no longer be heard. Mary immediately panicked and answered, "SS-Mary... in Seminyak, Ma.""Oh, in Seminyak. IN SEMINYAK! BECOMING A SLUT?! YOU'RE SELLING YOURSELF, NANDA! YES?! ANSWER!"Immediately Mary gasped, her body trembling. That sentence tore his heart. So far, Mary has never received harsh words from her mother. Plus, Vera also conveyed it with heart-wrenching tears. The anger and sadness were palpable.

Exactly at four in the afternoon, Roland woke up. Mary, who was closing her eyes in anxiety next to her, immediately sat down and waited for the promise that Roland had given her earlier."My darling…"Roland stretched his muscles while greeting Mary. His face looked happy, after getting to know James, for some reason Roland seemed to have new enthusiasm to continue the days which had previously only been filled with gloom and evil intentions to continue eating away at Mary's wealth. Yes, although the intention is still there, his heart is not so bad now.Mary smiled, even though her heart was anxious and very annoyed with Roland, she didn't want to show it. This was all for the sake of being able to talk to Evelyn.“Honey… how?” asked Mary, she couldn't even continue her sentence because she was so annoyed with the man in front of her."What do you mean by that?"Roland got up and kissed Mary's face tenderly.<

“Eddie, you need to think this through,” his secretary, Lisa, urged as she shuffled through papers on his desk. “Keeping your distance from Agatha might not be the best strategy right now.”Eddie leaned back in his chair, rubbing his temples. “You don’t understand. I can’t afford to get too close to her, not after everything that’s happened.”“Look, I get it. But you’ve already agreed to help her with her family’s company. If you cut ties now, it’ll look suspicious,” Lisa replied, raising an eyebrow.Eddie sighed heavily. “It was a mistake to agree to that in the first place. I should have never involved myself in her family’s business.”“Eddie, this is a complicated situation. You know Agatha needs your support,” Lisa pressed, her voice steady. “She’s promised to start fresh, to make this work. You can’t just back out.”“Her promises don’t mean anything if it jeopardizes my own company,” Eddie countered, his voice rising slightly. “I have to think about my future, my business. I can’

“Eddie!” Jennifer called out as she stepped into the house, her heart racing.Eddie emerged from the kitchen, looking worn out and a little worried. “You’re back! How was your trip?”“It was beautiful, but… we need to talk,” Jennifer said, struggling to keep her voice steady.“Talk about what?” Eddie asked, leaning against the kitchen counter, sensing the tension in the air.“Andrew… he wants to marry me,” Jennifer blurted out, the words escaping before she could rein them in.Eddie’s brow furrowed. “What? You’ve got to be kidding me. You just got back from a vacation! Why would you even consider that?”“I know it sounds crazy, but he’s serious. He wants me to leave everything and be with him,” she replied, panic rising in her chest.“Leave everything? Jennifer, are you really thinking about this? What about us?” Eddie’s voice rose slightly, betraying his frustration.“I’m not saying I will! I just… I need time to figure things out,” she stammered, trying to make sense of her feelings.

Eddie leaned back in his chair, staring out the window as he waited for Agatha to arrive. The morning sun filtered through the glass, casting shadows across his desk, but the warmth offered little comfort. His mind raced with possibilities, scenarios of how this confrontation would play out. He could almost hear the tension humming in the air, a warning that things were about to get messy.When Agatha finally entered, she was all business, her heels clicking sharply against the hardwood floor. Her expression was calm, but Eddie noticed a flicker of something in her eyes—nervousness, perhaps, or anticipation.“Eddie,” she greeted, her tone cool. “You wanted to see me?”“Have a seat,” he replied, gesturing to the chair across from him. He needed to maintain control, to keep the upper hand in this conversation.Agatha sat down, her posture elegant, but there was a slight tension in her shoulders. “What’s this about?”“Let’s not pretend, Agatha. You know exactly why I wanted to talk to yo

"Eddie, calm down. You're jumping to conclusions." Agatha’s voice was smooth, too smooth for Eddie’s liking. She sat across from him, legs crossed, sipping her tea as if the world wasn’t on fire.Eddie clenched his fists, barely able to control his rising anger. His office felt smaller, suffocating, as if the walls were closing in on him. “Calm down? Agatha, one of my subsidiaries just got shut down for a violation, and it happens to be the one your man, Charles, oversees. You expect me to believe that’s just a coincidence?”Agatha didn’t even flinch. She set her cup down delicately, her sharp eyes meeting his. “I understand your frustration, Eddie. But accusing me without evidence won’t solve your problem. Charles has been nothing but loyal, and whatever happened at that company was not my doing. You’re letting your emotions cloud your judgment.”Eddie’s jaw tightened. “You think this is about emotions? Agatha, I’ve been in this business long enough to know when something stinks. I j

"Jennifer, you need a break. We've both been working nonstop, and honestly, I think a vacation would do us both some good." Andrew's voice was steady but held a hint of concern as they sat across from each other in the quiet corner of a café.Jennifer stirred her coffee absentmindedly, her mind elsewhere. "I don’t know if I’m ready to go anywhere, Andrew. There’s too much going on, and I can’t just leave. Especially with everything at the office." She sighed, the weight of Frank's death still lingering in her voice, even though she had started to heal.Andrew leaned forward, his eyes locking onto hers. "You can't keep burying yourself in work, Jen. It's not healthy. You’ve been carrying a lot on your shoulders, and I get it. But you need to take care of yourself too. Just a few days away. Let’s go somewhere quiet, where you don’t have to think about business or Frank for a while."Jennifer hesitated, chewing her lip. She knew Andrew was right, but the thought of leaving everything beh

“Grace, I need to know exactly what’s going on,” Eddie demanded, pacing around his office. His voice was sharp, filled with frustration. “We can’t afford any more surprises, and this Wilford situation has already cost us enough.”Grace, sitting calmly across from him, nodded. “I understand, Mr. Cameron. I’ve already started pulling reports from the other subsidiaries. But, honestly, I think we need to have a bigger conversation about oversight. This isn’t just about Wilford anymore.”Eddie stopped pacing and turned to face her. “What do you mean?”She handed him a folder. “I’ve been digging, and there are minor discrepancies in a few other subsidiaries as well. It’s not at the level of Wilford, but it’s enough to raise concerns.”Eddie flipped through the documents, his brow furrowing deeper with each page. “How did this happen under my watch? I had systems in place, checks and balances—how did we miss all of this?”Grace gave him a sympathetic look. “Honestly, I think the company has

Eddie sat at his desk, staring at the numbers on the financial report in front of him. His heart sank as he scanned the figures again, hoping he had somehow misread the data. But there was no mistaking it—his company had taken a sharp hit, and the numbers reflected a significant loss.“This doesn’t make sense,” he muttered to himself, furrowing his brow. He quickly picked up his phone and dialed his personal secretary, Grace.Moments later, Grace appeared at the door, clipboard in hand, her face calm as ever. She was always efficient, always on top of everything, and Eddie trusted her implicitly. But today, something felt off, and he needed answers.“Grace,” he said, his voice sharp with urgency. “What’s going on with the numbers? Our revenues have dropped drastically. I need you to dig into this and find out where the problem lies.”Grace nodded, her fingers already flying over her tablet as she pulled up the latest data. “I’ll get to it right away, Mr. Cameron. I’ll have a detailed

Eddie paced back and forth in his office, his phone gripped tightly in his hand. He had just read Jennifer’s text: *"We’re heading to Aruba. I’ll be fine, Eddie. Don’t worry."* His gut told him something was off, but he didn’t want to overreact—at least not yet.He opened his contacts, his thumb hovering over a few trusted names. Maybe he could ask one of them to keep an eye on Jennifer while she was away. But before he could make a decision, Agatha appeared at the doorway, her presence calm and poised.“Eddie, what’s going on?” Agatha’s voice was smooth, almost soothing. She noticed the tension in his shoulders, the way he clenched his phone like it was the last tether holding him together. Eddie exhaled heavily, running a hand through his hair. “Jennifer just texted me. She’s heading to Aruba with Andrew. Something feels… wrong.”Agatha raised an eyebrow, stepping further into the room. “Aruba? With Andrew? That doesn’t sound too bad, does it?” Her voice had a lilt of casualness, a

Andrew watched Jennifer run toward the car, her decision clear as she fumbled with her phone. His face twisted in frustration, his mind racing. He had spent weeks meticulously planning this, gaining her trust, making her think he was her escape. And now, Eddie had ruined everything. His phone buzzed in his pocket, but he ignored it, clenching his fists. Jennifer had already stepped away, halfway across the tarmac, but Andrew wasn’t ready to let this go so easily. With determined steps, he caught up to her, his voice low but urgent as he reached out to grab her arm. "Jennifer, wait."Jennifer stopped, startled, but didn’t turn around immediately. She seemed to wrestle with herself, not quite pulling away from him yet. Andrew took that as a sign to keep going."Just listen to me," Andrew urged, trying to soften his tone. "You don’t have to believe anything Eddie says. He’s trying to confuse you, make you doubt your own decisions."Jennifer shook her head, her voice barely above a whis
