“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’

"Learn to be a good person and never come back here."Eddie's body was gently patted by a prison guard as he stepped out of the place where he had been for the past three years. Eddie's light brown eyes gazed far ahead where the pathway lay."Well, this is it, what I've been waiting for finally arrives. I can't wait to go back home and sell it immediately, I have to leave this town," murmured Eddie.His skinny body and beard-covered face made Eddie look quite shabby, even the white shirt he wore looked yellowed from wear.The sound of coins given by Eddie's fellow inmate for his fare home accompanied his steps toward the front gate of the prison. Eddie's heart raced as the gate was opened; he still felt like this was all just a dream.Three long years in prison for a mistake he never committed left Eddie devoid of hope to carry on with life. Everything that happened from three years ago, the night when he was apprehended by the police after aiding his friend Frank, now plays vividly i

"Hey! Don't run! Eddie!" Jennifer's shout made Eddie accelerate his pace even more, bumping into several pedestrians along the way. "Darn it! Instead of stopping, he's running even faster! Argh!" Jennifer looked frustrated, sweat dripping down her forehead, causing her to stop her chase. Jennifer's plan to stop Eddie immediately clicked when she saw a police car parked not far from where she stood. A wide grin spread across her face as she wiped the sweat from her forehead and approached the young officer writing something near the car's door. "Hello, Officer, please help me!" Jennifer put on a panicked expression as she approached the young officer. The police officer turned, and the young man with a thin mustache nodded slightly. "Yes, Lady, what's the matter?" "I need your help, I was just harassed by a man running over there, he tried to grab my breast and I couldn't chase him! He ran in that direction, and I remember his face vividly!" Jennifer's convincing act made the off

Nearly half an hour of silence passed after Eddie and Jennifer were inside the car following their conversation at the police station. Jennifer seemed engrossed with her phone, while Eddie gazed outside, observing the luxurious settlements that were now becoming visible. Jennifer glanced at Eddie, then sighed heavily. "The Jehemian mansion is much bigger than the houses you've been admiring. When you see it, I'm sure your spirits will lift." "I'm not interested in all this luxury. I just don't know where to look, except at the scenery outside. I want to talk to you, but it seems you're more preoccupied with your social media followers," Eddie retorted. "Are you spying on what I'm doing? Damn it, Eddie. Just because you're out of prison doesn't mean you have to maintain your bad attitude! Come on, you understand the meaning of privacy, right?" Jennifer shot Eddie a stern look. Eddie smirked and glanced at Jennifer's phone screen, which displayed a photo of her in a bikini, posing so

"We should talk in the car, come on!" Gilbert hurriedly pushed Douglas to leave the terrace of his house.However, Douglas, still shocked by Eddie's statement, chose to stay and said, "Wait, Gilbert! How could you not tell me about this guy's presence! I mean, this is a ridiculous thing happening in my life! How can a convict become an investor in my company?!""Calm down, Dude!" Eddie chuckled.A grin spread across his face, all the fear and nervousness that had come rushing in earlier had completely disappeared. Eddie seemed like a different person; he was much more confident to refute every word coming out of Douglas's mouth."Okay, the situation is getting weirder now, as I said before--." Gilbert's sentence stopped when Eddie signaled him to be silent."It’s okay, Gilbert. Even if he doesn't want to work with us, it's not a big deal. I am an investor, and it's clear here who needs whom, right?""Ah, you want to act arrogant just because you're Mr. Jehemian's heir? Damn it! You're

The festive atmosphere of the party held at one of the renowned and most luxurious beach clubs was already evident from outside the entrance gate. The booming music and cheers carried by the wind reached Eddie's ears."Fascinating, I've never experienced a party like this before, just some dinner parties with wealthy people who barely even know me," Eddie said to Gilbert."It's a bit strange to hear that, considering you're a vice-director; many people should know you," Gilbert replied."It's not that easy, Gilbert. In fact, you could say, I just realized now, I'm rarely involved in company matters. Frank just used my name to fill that position and shifted the blame onto me. I only often deal with lawyers or things related to the law. I should have realized it from the beginning. I was always stuck on the kindness given by Frank's family; I was just a poor guy who then became close friends with Frank and finally got the chance to become a vice-director. Isn't that like a treasure for

Gilbert's face looked like crumpled paper as he hung up the phone, directing an irritated look at Eddie as he said, "Thanks to you, my phone hasn't stopped ringing. You know, after father's death, everyone who worked with him is supposed to contact me if they want to do anything. Your sudden appearance in the news made them all bombard me until my hands ache!""It's only natural, right? Considering you're my brother and essentially my companion, Gilbert. Just enjoy it," Eddie said casually as he sipped his cocktail.Gilbert sighed heavily and rubbed his forehead. "Your introduction should have happened at least two or three days after this. I wanted to invite everyone for dinner and talk about you. If I may offer some advice, you seem too consumed by ego now. I mean, I'm glad to see you're no longer trapped in fear, but you also need to relax a bit.""Relax how? I've been relaxed for too long, living life being stuffed by people like Frank. Let me be arrogant, conceited, and tacky; I

Angela's bedroom door was roughly opened by Eddie. His hands were busy carrying Angela's body while kissing her lips. He was so passionate that he accidentally slammed Angela's body too hard onto the bed."Wait!" Angela stopped Eddie's attempt to touch her again. "I don't have any condoms. Can you buy them quickly? There's a store at the end of the street."Eddie's aroused expression turned disappointed, but he chose to comply with Angela's request. For him, the opportunity to sleep with a woman as beautiful as Angela was something to be seized."Wait, then, and do something that makes me crazy when I’m back." Eddie gave Angela a kiss on the lips and immediately left the room.Angela hurriedly got up from her bed and peeked at Eddie through her window. Just as the car started moving, Angela pressed a number on her phone and made a call."He's gone. You can send the money now, or I'll expose everything you've planned. Always remember who's protecting me, Frank!"Angela grinned widely a
