Morel sat in a brightly lit office at his large, file-filled desk. In front of him, Marisa stood at attention, showing him the documents she had just finished. Her hands nimbly turned the pages of the report she had carefully prepared, explaining every detail to Morel.

"Everything has been organized according to your request. I have also double-checked the financial report, and there are no errors. The marketing plan for the next project is ready to be presented to the team," Marisa said, pointing to several key points in the document in her hand.

However, after she finished speaking, Morel did not respond. Morel's eyes were focused on a single point in the room, but they seemed blank as if his mind had drifted away to another place. His usually nimble fingers signing documents were now silent, lying on the table.

Marisa looked at her boss with some hesitation. "Morel?" she asked slowly, hoping to get his attention.

Still no reaction. Morel remained silent as if the world around him d

    Marisa smiled again with conviction. "It's just a feeling. Remember that your actions are far more important than mere words on paper. What matters is what you do and how you act on your beliefs. Don't let that letter interfere with your decisions and actions that have proven good so far."Morel, starting to feel calmer, replied with a small, grateful smile. "Thank you, Marisa. Perhaps I did overthink and let little things affect my mood. I really appreciate your support."After lunch, they exited the restaurant and walked around the area leisurely. While enjoying the fresh air and sunny afternoon, Marisa pointed excitedly toward a large building that appeared to be under construction."Look at that building," Marisa said with a wide smile, directing Morel's attention towards it. "It's a big project in the works. I'm always interested in seeing how things are built from start to finish."Morel turned his head and looked at the building under construction with interest. "Yes, it looks

    Marisa and Morel sat tensely in the security room, their eyes staring intently at the CCTV footage's screen. Their focus was on only one thing: finding clues as to who had placed the mysterious box on Morel's desk. Several minutes passed, but nothing seemed out of place. The footage showed that no one had entered Morel's workspace, as if the box had appeared out of nowhere.Morel began to feel frustrated. "This guy must be perfect," he muttered, more to himself. "He must be a professional. There's no way he could have done this without being detected."Feeling angry, Morel turned his chair around and looked at the two guards standing stiffly behind them. He had an annoyed look on his face. "Can't you guys work properly? How could you not know that someone could come into the study and place a box on my desk without being caught?" his voice grew louder with each word, showing his growing frustration.The guards exchanged glances, looking nervous and not knowing what to answer. They kne

With every effort to calm his employer's nerves, Doris tried to ease the tense atmosphere with a confident demeanor. "Master, there's no need to think too far about this. I will find out who the person is who dared to disturb the master like this and disturb the tranquility that has been established. I promise to find the culprit and make sure they receive the consequences," Doris said in a confident tone, trying to give Morel a sense of calm and confidence.However, Morel's piercing gaze did not budge in the slightest.

    All of Morel's childhood memories came flooding back into his mind, making him dizzy and tormented. He remembered Merian Spencer, his father, a rigorous man who never gave him any love. Merian always demanded Morel to be perfect, strong, and tough just so he could fulfill the expectations of being the next head of the Spencer family. However, the demands did not stop at words. His father often used violence to 'educate' Morel without caring about the scars, both physical and emotional, he left behind.Whenever Morel failed to live up to his father's standards, physical and mental torture came without mercy. He remembered how small he used to be, always living in the shadow of fear of Merian's anger. The beatings, shouts, and disappointed looks from his father were part of his daily life as if love and acceptance were things he didn't deserve.Morel remembers the dark days in this villa when he was a child and often faced the wrath of his father, Merian Spencer. One day, he had just re

Unable to bear being in a place filled with the scars of his childhood, Morel decided to leave, returning to his home.When I arrived home, the atmosphere was calmer but not entirely soothing.

    "Master Morel, I've brought the financial report that needs your signature..." Doris' voice sounded low but expectant as he stood at the door of Morel's room. He waited anxiously, hoping that Morel would respond. However, only silence answered him.After a moment, Doris continued, trembling slightly, "Master, please... I'm apprehensive. You haven't been out for a week. You need rest and care." But still, there was no answer. Reluctantly, Doris left the documents in front of Morel's bedroom door, as he had done many times before. This week, he took over all of Morel's work, from the simplest to the most urgent. However, his burden was getting heavier and heavier, not just because of the job but because his concern for Morel was becoming unstoppable.Every day, he tried everything possible to get Morel to open up. In fact, several times, he brought a doctor to examine his master's condition, but the results were always the same. Morel always refused angrily, chasing them out of his roo

    Marisa bit her lip anxiously before speaking again. A trembling voice could be heard as she asked, "Mr. Doris... What exactly happened to Morel? Why is he like this? What made him change so drastically?"Doris was silent momentarily, feeling a little hesitant to speak, but finally let out a soft sigh. "Actually, Miss Marisa, Master Morel... underwent a great change after he returned from Amiste village.""Amiste village?" Marisa repeated, confused. "What happened there?""After the visit to the village, Morel looked very different. He started shutting him self up in his room, refusing to see anyone and refusing all the work he usually handled. We were all worried... including me. He's never been like this before." Doris spoke cautiously, not wanting to add to Marisa's worries, yet he knew this truth could not be hidden.Marisa was silent, trying to digest the information. "Did... something happen there?" she asked quietly, curious and anxious."We don't know for sure either," Doris co

    Marisa was silent momentarily, her heart breaking to see Morel in this state. But she didn't want to give up. "All right, Morel," she said softly, trying to contain her emotions. "I will go out... but I will come to this house often. I'll wait until you're willing to talk to me until you're ready to tell me what happened."Without waiting for an answer, Marisa got up slowly, stepping towards the door. However, she wouldn't really leave Morel alone. She knew that behind the coldness and distance Morel created, there was something weighty that the man had to deal with.Marisa sat in her office with both hands supporting her face, her eyes blankly staring at the documents scattered across the desk. But it was all meaningless. Her mind kept returning to Morel, trapped in an increasingly suffocating worry. The image of the man sitting alone in a dark room, his face a mess, as if alienated from the world, haunted every corner of his mind."What happened to you, Morel?" he whispered softly,
