Dustin left the important meeting hall and quickly got into the car parked neatly in the parking lot. He started the engine. However, his cell phone rang just as he was about to step on the gas pedal. There was a phone call from Karina.Dustin immediately picked up the call. "Are you there yet?"Karina, on the other side of the phone, nodded her head. "Yes, we got here a few minutes ago. Am I disturbing you?"Dustin shook his head. "No, no. The account just came out of the building and is in the parking lot."Karina nodded her head. Her voice sounded cheerful. "Is there anything else you want to do?""No, I don't. I had intended to go straight there to meet you guys. I just started the car, but you already called." Dustin smiled as he slowly stepped on the gas pedal, moving the vehicle forward."Alright then, be careful. We're waiting for you." Karina disconnected the phone first.Dustin put his cell phone in his coat pocket and drove to where Karina and Ludwig were. They had promised
Karina looked visibly embarrassed to hear those words come out of Dustin's mouth in front of Ludwig and the guards standing guard there. Her face instantly turned red like a boiled crab. She looked around, fearing they would hear what Dustin had just said."Honeymoon?" Ludwig, who had heard what Dustin said, approached his parents. "What's a honeymoon?"Suddenly, Ludwig's question made Karina and Dustin a little surprised. They looked stunned, mainly because they felt even more embarrassed. After all, this conversation should not be heard by Ludwig, who was still a child.Karina wrote for a moment toward the bodyguards not far from them. She hoped that the guards would not hear this conversation. Karina bent half of her body while stroking Ludwig's back. "Honey, the honeymoon is a special vacation for married couples. It's meant to be an attempt to have a baby.""A baby?" Ludwig scratched the back of his head, which was not itchy. He didn't quite understand what Karina was saying. "Is
Karina and Dustin drank alcohol while discussing things that brought their relationship closer and made Karina feel comfortable. Karina felt that moments like this were the most critical moments in their marriage because it was rare for them to talk about small but meaningful things together like this.Karina sipped her drink as she leaned back in the chair. "You remember how when Ludwig was three years old, he almost made my hair fall out because he didn't like it when I moved my hair."Dustin chuckled, remembering that precious moment. He nodded his head while looking at Karina. "Yes, that was very funny. So that's why when you're done washing your hair, you tie your hair up immediately after you're done drying it.""Yes, that's right." Karina chuckled while covering her mouth so that her laughter wouldn't be too loud and disturb Ludwig because their voices would sound even more prominent than usual in a large area like this.Dustin poured the alcohol back into their glasses, and th
In the morning, Karina woke up and didn't find Dustin beside her. "Where did Dustin go?"Karina blinked her eyes a few times while yawning widely, then looked around. Her eyes widened instantly when she saw the sunlight that had infiltrated the room. For example, it surprised her that she had overslept. Karina immediately threw off the covers and put back on her nightgown beside the bed.Karina stomped on the floor with a look of annoyance because Dustin didn't wake her up first, which meant she didn't have breakfast with Ludwig. "Ludwig will definitely be disappointed that he didn't eat with me. Why didn't Dustin wake me up? That guy!"Not long after, Dustin walked into the room with a breakfast tray for Karina. He had a happy look on his face. "Good morning. I see you're awake."Karina stared at Dustin with a sharp gaze while folding her hands before her chest. "Why didn't you wake me up? I overslept because of you."Dustin smiled at Karina, who had returned to sit on the edge of th
"Ludwig!" Karina was shocked by Ludwig's shout. She cried as she saw her fearless son lying on the ground. Ludwig cried hysterically and tried his best to back away from the bear. However, the movement made by the lazy Ludwig made the bear more aggressive and ran faster towards Ludwig. Holding a gun, Dustin immediately ran and moved his weapon towards the bear. In just one shot, he managed to hit the head of the large wild bear. "Ah!" Ludwig screamed hysterically, crying in fear as blood spurted onto his face and body. The bear fell to the ground with its head covered in blood. Ludwig's eyes widened perfectly because this was the first time he had ever seen that much blood, and to add to his shock, the bear's blood was all over him. He had never seen a wild bear in person at such close range. Karina immediately ran over to Ludwig. Karina hugged Ludwig, who looked very shocked and did not stop crying. It also made Karina cry while rubbing the back of Ludwig's head. "I'm sorry for no
2 years later, Karina accompanied Ludwig to practice archery with Albert in the backyard. Ludwig's skills in archery became more pronounced and more mature. Ludwig could even shoot targets at more than two hundred meters. This really made Karina and Dustin feel more proud of Ludwig.Karina smiled, watching Ludwig from a distance. "You're amazing, Ludwig!"Ludwig briefly turned to Karina, smiling with a cold look, precisely like Dustin. Ludwig again aimed his arrow towards a target farther away than before, 350 meters from where he was standing.Karina clapped her hands as Ludwig hit the target again. However, Karina's head suddenly felt dizzy. Karina lowered her head while holding her head. "My head is so dizzy."Karina raised her head slowly and looked around. Her eyesight was blurry, and she could not see Ludwig clearly. Her head was getting dizzier and dizzier as Karina's consciousness dwindled until finally, Karina fell unconscious. Suddenly, everyone there panicked."Miss Karina!"
Dustin stood looking at the large building that had just officially opened in the last few months. A spacious building located right at the foot of a mountain with a view of nature that offered beauty.He was in a very distant place. The mountains were not far from the oil refinery area. Dustin had not been there long because he was busy taking care of several new businesses and realising Ludwig's genius design."Dustin." A woman approached Dustin in a friendly manner. "It's been a while since we've seen each other."Dustin nodded. "Yes. I just had time to come again because I was caring for something else.""I see." The woman nodded, then extended her hand to Dustin. "Congratulations on the birth of your second child, Dustin."Dustin smiled, welcoming the hand of the woman in front of him. "Thank you, Christina."Christina only smiled. This company that stood in the village at the foot of the mountain was his joint project with Karina. It had taken several years of research to run th
Karina glanced at the clock in her hand. I don't know how many times it has been. She looks uneasy while occasionally looking at her cell phone. Karina bit her lower lip, typing something on her phone. It was the tenth message she sent to Dustin.Karina pushed her hair behind her ears, exhaling a rough breath. "Why isn't he back yet? It's been three hours since he sent me a message about coming home."Karina redialed Dustin's phone number, but it never connected, always out of range. Karina felt uneasy.Karina's gaze drifted to Albert, who came to her respectfully. "Miss, I'm ...." Albert seemed hesitant to speak to Karina."What's wrong?" Karina examined Albert's face, which looked full of worry. She was curious about that. "Did you hear from Dustin?" His brow furrowed. "I've sent him messages and tried to call him several times, but his number is always out of range."Albert was silent with his head bowed. This made Karina feel even more curious. Especially when Albert opened his pa
