Kumar pulled the corners of his lips into a smirk. He stared at the young lady in front of him with a longing gaze.“I told them all to leave this room so that it would be quiet, Ms. Braun. That way you will be able to more concentrate on understanding the script,” he replied with a reassuring smile.Zara frowned. “But I don’t think their presence here is disturbing at all. They didn’t even make a sound.”Kumar huffed. “Miss Braun, I want them to leave so that we can be alone here.”His revelation sent a shiver down her spine. She gulped harshly as she was about to get up. But before Zara could run towards the door, Kumar quickly pulled her hand and made her sit down forcefully in her chair.“Let me go! What are you going to do?!” Zara exclaimed as she tried to free her hand from Kumar’s grip.“Calm down, pretty girl. I won’t hurt you.”Kumar closed the distance between them while still holding Zara’s hand. She averted her gaze in disgust to find the middle-aged man staring at her wit
Kumar, who was already shirtless, pulled Zara's hand and pushed her until she fell face down on the floor. Tears dripped down her cheeks. She regretted her decision to come to this room so much. If only she listened to her gut instinct, she would not have ended up here.The man put his hands on his hips while watching Zara who had fallen on the floor. "Oh Zara, I actually didn't want to be rude to you. But you asked me to do this," he stated, interspersed with a mocking chuckle.Zara tried to get up from her fall. She saw her bag that had fallen on the floor in front of her. She quickly got up and grabbed the bag. She took her cell phone out of her bag to call for help.Seeing Zara who was about to call someone, Kumar ran towards her to grab the phone from her hand.Zara's finger managed to press the call button on Arnold's contact. But when the call just rang, Kumar snatched the phone from her hand.Zara's eyes widened in surprise, and she turned to look at the middle-aged man. Kumar
Arnold tried to call Zara, but her number was not reachable. His worry escalated, remembering her last message that stated that she had a bad feeling when she was asked to come to the producer's room.He quickly contacted Alastair and ordered him to come to the address that Zara had told him. He deliberately asked his bodyguard to come there first so that nothing unwanted would happen to Zara.Arnold felt a little relieved when he saw the reply message from Alastair. His personal bodyguard was in a hotel that was very close to the Red Sapphire Hotel, even only a 5-minute walk away. He sent all the evidence to Alastair so that his bodyguard could show it to the receptionist.[Alastair: I'm coming there right now! I promise to bring Miss Zara safely.]Arnold made his way out of his room. He rushed to the Red Sapphire Hotel to help save Zara. Even though he had sent Alastair, he was still someone more responsible for this.Alastair had arrived at the reception desk. After explaining his
Kumar got up from his fall while stepping back to get away from Alastair. He ran towards the table to grab his phone so he could call his bodyguards. Alastair clenched his fists with a rough breath. With swift steps, he walked towards Kumar. Kumar's eyes widened in fear seeing Alastair who was furious walking towards him. He cursed in annoyance seeing his call not getting an answer from his bodyguards. "What the hell!" He slammed the phone in annoyance, then his gaze shook seeing Alastair reaching for his body. "What are you doing? Put me down! Put me down!" He shouted for help, but no one paid attention to him. The security guards who witnessed the unfolding scene were silent, even though Kumar was a VIP guest at the Red Sapphire Hotel. What they saw when the door opened explained everything that happened here. Kumar was the guilty party, so the hotel would not protect him. The burly man lifted Kumar's body into the air as if he were lifting a doll. Kumar screamed in fear
The lady was taken aback. Arnold's statement sent shivers down her spine, especially since she was the one who had suggested Zara Braun come to Kumar's room. She didn't expect her boss to do something this lecherous, considering that the man was a generous figure.According to his subordinates, Kumar was not only generous to his employees, but he also cared deeply about the less fortunate. The middle-aged man even owned an orphanage."I will take this case to court, and your bastard boss will rot in prison!" Arnold threatened while pointing his finger, then he turned around and left the room.Arnold and Alastair rushed into the car and headed to the hospital where Zara was being treated. Arriving in front of Zara's room, they sat on the chairs to wait for the doctor to invite them to enter.Not long after, the door swung open and revealed a female doctor. Arnold and Alastair immediately got up from their seats and approached the doctor."Doctor, how is Zara? Is she okay?" Arnold asked
Arnold looked Zara straight in the eye, his face showing a reassuring expression. “Zara, leave it all to me. I will stand for justice for you, and I will make sure that man will disappear forever from the entertainment world! I am sure Madam Elizabeth will definitely be able to win this case,” he said determinedly.She nodded believing Arnold’s words, even though there was doubt in her heart. Arnold averted his gaze from Zara because of the awkwardness that enveloped the atmosphere. At that moment, he realized that he had made a mistake that could make Zara suspicious. He forgot that he should have called Zara with a formal call instead of her name.With a guilty expression, he apologized to Zara. “Miss Zara, please forgive me for calling your name impolitely,” he said in genuine remorse.Zara chuckled at Arnold’s apology. She didn’t even mind at all if the man called her simply “Zara.” She had considered Arnold as a friend, especially since he had saved her life.“You don’t need to c
The lady shrank in fear. Hesitantly, she told them about Kumar's room number. After getting information about the room where Kumar was being treated, the three men left from there. In his room, Kumar was lying weakly with his upper body wrapped in bandages. His body was so stiff and difficult to move. He would continue to be like that until the treatment process was successful, because this would take quite a long time. In that room, there was only his assistant who accompanied him while waiting for his family to arrive. "Levi!" Kumar shouted calling his assistant. Levi who was sitting on the sofa, glanced at the bed while sighing in annoyance. Kumar had called him more than ten times to ask unimportant things. If it weren't for the high pay, then Levi would have chosen to leave this room at that very moment. He reluctantly walked closer to the middle-aged man's bed. While forcing a smile, he asked him. "What's the matter, Master?" "Have you made an announcement to the other produ
Arnold was silent for a moment. An orphanage reminded him of his childhood. He loved children so much and cared deeply about the less fortunate, but this did not make him forgive Kumar so easily.Arnold would still hold Kumar accountable for his actions, but he would not let the orphanage close due to a lack of funds. In the blink of an eye, he had made a decision.With a calm but firm voice, Arnold declared. “I will buy the orphanage. Tell me how much I have to pay!”Arnold’s response made Kumar gasp, because this was not what he expected. “I can’t hand over the orphanage to you. It is an orphanage that I have owned for the past 20 years. I will not hand it over to anyone!”Arnold furrowed his brows. He raised his palm and was about to land it on Kumar’s face.With a trembling voice, Kumar begged. “Please don’t torture me, Mr. Winster. I will hand over the orphanage to you.” He paused, his breath catching slightly. “300 million dollars. This is the price you have to pay if you want i
