Three yachts lined up to welcome the arrival of Andrew with William and three prospective investors. From each yacht, William's colleagues could be seen greeting those who had just stepped out of the car.
"Hey, I forgot the name of this young man. We haven't really been properly introduced," said one of the prospective investors, a large man with white hair caused by aging, as he patted Andrew's shoulder."Oh, my name is Andrew, Sir," Andrew nodded his head politely. The prospective investor named Abraham nodded back, chuckling."It's understandable that I forgot, I rarely remember people who haven't been beneficial in my life. But, William mentioned that getting to know you wouldn't be in vain. That's why I'm trying to remember your name. I'm sure William's words won't miss the mark."Andrew could do nothing but awkwardly smile, hearing the banter of the man in the leaf-patterned shirt. William glanced at him and whispered to Andrew, "Just go"You're so handsome! I really want to kiss those lips of yours!" Two women appeared to burst into laughter as they danced around Andrew at the party hosted by William's colleague. "Don't be so stiff. Why are you not enthusiastic and just standing there?" William nudged Andrew, his gaze shifting to the two women who were still waiting for Andrew to respond to them. "My body is still a bit jet-lagged from the trip earlier. Also, my strength is starting to wane, which is dampening my spirits. I just want to sit here, watch you guys having fun with these women." The two women, who had been dancing sensually, then stopped and looked at Andrew. "So, you're not going to pay any attention to us?" Andrew shook his head and said, "No, go ahead." The two women stomped their feet in frustration at Andrew's indifferent treatment. William seemed to chuckle, patting Andrew's shoulder. "They seemed to have high expectations of yo
The long journey of eight hours finally came to an end. When the plane had landed, William was still sound asleep, he had been sleeping deeply since takeoff. "Who wants to wake up William? You know that guy would go crazy if he's woken up, only Marcel can do it. I don't know why he didn't bring Marcel along." Andrew turned to William's three colleagues and said, "I'll wake up Mr. William, you all go out." "Okay, Andrew, we'll leave it to you." The three of William's colleagues waved to Andrew and left the private jet. Now there was only Andrew and William facing each other. Andrew flashed a wry smile, he looked back towards the back of the private jet and motioned with his hand to the cabin crew who were approaching to stay in the back area. Andrew had a plan, he wanted to observe William again. The moment he and William were in the same room with William unconscious was a rare occurrence. Andrew's hand began to touch Willi
William's sentence halted as he approached Andrew, who had just gotten out of a taxi. His eyes were fixed on the ring worn by Andrew. Clearly, William was surprised, because the ring was the one he gave to Lily, his beloved Aphrodite."Mr. William, is there something wrong? Why are you so amazed by looking at my ring?" Andrew smiled politely while looking at his ring, feeling quite pleased because William's surprised expression couldn't be hidden."Nothing, it's the beauty that left me speechless. I rarely come across a ring this beautiful. Where did you get it, Andrew?""It belongs to my mother, my sister was keeping it, and when I visited yesterday, I just took it. I'm just like you, captivated by the sparkle of this ring. I'm curious who got this for her; it feels like our father wouldn't have. He has been gone for a long time, and my mother never told me about him."William appeared to smile awkwardly, patting Andrew's shoulder and saying, "I'm sorry
Daniella turned to her son's presence, smiled, and handed him a half-empty pack of cigarettes."You haven't had dinner yet. Erica and I called you, but you didn't wake up. Seems like you're really exhausted. Is it because you saved Miller?" Andrew inquired."Yes, it seems so. Apart from the slightly distant journey, my energy was drained because of your brother, Daniella. So, speaking of him, how is he now?""He's doing fine. He had dinner with us earlier. I don't know what you said to him, but he's changed a lot. I mean, he's become like the Miller I knew as a kid. Even his eyes have a liveliness and a sense of peace. Another important thing, he's really close to Erica. They both seem to be attracted to each other."Andrew quickly shifted his gaze sharply toward Daniella. "Don't say anything about them. You're not trying to set them up, are you? I won't allow my sister to be with someone like Miller. He'll never be responsible. Three pregnancies at his y
Andrew halted his steps and turned back to Miller. The young man was looking at him with a confused expression. Andrew approached him again and waited for a word to come out of his stepbrother's mouth.Miller regulated his breathing repeatedly, appearing to struggle due to the mistake he had made. He held his chest and with a quiet voice, he began to speak to Andrew. "Are we in hell?""You're not dead, if that's what you mean. You were successfully rescued, your actions were foolish. Why did you want to end your life? Is it because you impregnated those three women?""Where did you find out? Did my mother tell you?"Andrew raised an eyebrow, choosing not to respond further, and promptly left Miller. However, just as Andrew was about to open the door, Daniella suddenly came in along with Erica."He's awake."Andrew's words made Daniella immediately approach her second son and hug him tightly. "Miller, you're awake!""He thought he was
"Is that the child you told me about?" Andrew asked as he poured orange juice into his glass."Yes, Miller is my child who received the yellow orchid. And since you're here, I want to take that necklace and hand it over to you, Andrew. He can't be responsible for using it. He came back because he got into debt due to impregnating three girls, they demanded accountability, Miller said he used the power of the necklace to make them submit, but it didn't work. I want him to stop. The necklace should be given to you."Andrew and Erica exchanged glances. Erica then gave a signal by nodding her head for Andrew to accept Daniella's offer."How do you plan to take it? It seems unlikely he'll give it to you," Andrew exclaimed."That's why I want you to take it, because only you can, Andrew. Use your power, the yellow orchid will submit to the Black Sapphire."Andrew smiled wryly, then patted Erica's back and said, "Forget about it, we can discuss it later.
"Andrew stood in front of Erica's house exactly at two in the afternoon. He looked left and right, checking to make sure no one was following him. As soon as the door opened, Andrew rushed in and threw himself onto his younger sister's sofa."Lucky I didn't go to the salon. Why didn't you let me know you wanted to come here?""Why do you want to go to the salon? Which man are you aiming for, Erica?"Erica squinted her eyes. "Don't think I'm dolling up for a man. Just answer my previous question.""I didn't inform you because I knew you wouldn't go. It's not important to discuss that. I want you to go to Daniella's house and stay there while I'm gone tomorrow. I'll be gone for three days with William. I'm afraid something bad might happen to you.""Where are you going, Andrew? And why should I go to Aunt Daniella's house? Can this house get any more secluded? It's far from the bustle, not on the roadside like your lover's house earlier
"I forgot, but that's not important. Go on.""Well, I managed to get the vision, but only for a moment. My body suddenly fell, and immediately, I felt my strength vanish, as if I turned back into a weak Andrew who was always bullied and underestimated in my office before. I thought it might be because I was too tired after meeting Daniella and our quite long journey, but I was wrong.I arrived at William's mansion, and Marcel gave me a black box containing a toy timer showing the numbers, 20.03. I used my power again to see who the culprit was, and I found Jeremiah. My chest felt hot, and what happened at the coffee shop repeated. I fell, helpless. When I wanted to drink earlier, I couldn't even stand up. My brain can't cooperate, I want to know what the meaning of 20.03 left by Jeremiah is. There must be something he meant."The time 20:03 became a decoration on Andrew's phone screen ever since he had the vision about Jeremiah."Shit! Why am I suddenly u
