Alexa nodded. "If that's what you want, it's very easy for me to do. But, of course, there are things you need to do before that." Alexa rested her chin on her hand.Before Niko could respond, the waiter arrived with their orders and placed them on the table. Alexa immediately picked up her chopsticks and started eating her spaghetti without continuing her sentence. "What do I need to do?" Niko asked."Well, I'll tell you later when you take me home," Alexa continued eating, and Niko followed suit, finally enjoying a meal with Alexa after a long time, feeling strange because this time he was sitting next to her.After a few minutes of eating, Niko promptly escorted Alexa back to her apartment. He still didn't understand what Alexa meant when she mentioned payment or what she needed for proof. But as long as Alexa didn't say anything, Niko just had to wait. He couldn't force Alexa, or she might back out."That restaurant wasn't enjoyable at all. I actually don't like eating there, but
Niko hurriedly walked towards the room occupied by Daniel. Inside, his assistant was waiting, wearing a serious expression as he faced his laptop. Niko had already sent a message to notify his arrival."Young Master," Daniel stood up and bowed respectfully."Here's the file I meant. Keep it safe, and make sure no one knows about it until it reaches the hands of the police," Niko requested quickly."Understood, Young Master. I'll keep it safe.""In that case, I'll get back to work. Act as usual throughout the day and don't take any action until you receive orders from me."Niko rushed out of Daniel's room and headed to his own. He couldn't wait for the night to come so he could expose all the wrongdoings done by Justin.As the day turned into night, Niko returned home with Daniel as usual, but his assistant left without stopping by first. When he arrived home, there was no one to greet him. However, he felt indifferent. After all, there was nothing special about him.After cleaning up
For the sake of clarity and coherence, I've translated the story into English without changing the plot, dialogs, or sentences:"Alexa has called Niko's number fifty times since last night, but most of the calls went unanswered, and the rest of them were met with silence. She also sent numerous short messages expressing how much she missed Niko, but there was no reply. As she drove her car, Alexa was speeding, eager to meet Niko and find out why he hadn't responded to her calls. Arriving at the office parking lot at exactly 8:30 AM, she quickly got out of her car, only to find Niko there. Niko had just stepped out of his car, holding a brown paper bag that seemed to contain something important, but Alexa didn't care about that; she only wanted to know why Niko hadn't replied to her messages."Niko, for heaven's sake, why didn't you respond to my messages or pick up my calls? Am I not important to you anymore? I was really worried; fortunately, you're okay. I thought you might be sick
Niko let out a heavy sigh. He realized that Elina was now angry with him, for reasons unknown to Niko. As far as he could remember, he hadn't done anything wrong, but Elina seemed so upset with him at the moment. "Well, fine then," Niko finally surrendered.Elina entered the building, leaving Niko sitting there, waiting for her to return. True to form, about fifteen minutes later, Elina came back down and walked straight past Niko, trying to avoid him. However, Niko immediately chased after her. "Elina, what's going on with you? You're acting really strange," Niko snapped. He reached out and grabbed Elina's hand. "Come with me now. I want you to come with me today.""No, I don't want to, Young Master. I have to go home right away because there's something more important," Elina said. She tried to resist Niko, but he paid no attention and continued to pull her towards his car. "Help!" Elina cried out for assistance, but no one came to her aid, even though the place was crowded. No one
Niko felt tired and sleepy as he stepped out of the car. After a satisfying walk and dropping off Elina, he had finally arrived home, and it was already eleven at night. Some lights were off inside, indicating that the residents were sound asleep in their respective rooms.Niko used a spare key to quietly open the door, careful not to make any noise as he slowly made his way up the stairs, choosing to walk in the dimness without turning on the lights.As he ascended just one step, Niko's attention was drawn to a sound coming from the side, near Arshad's room. Curiosity got the better of him, and he followed the sound until he reached the wall separating the living room from Papa Surya's room.His eyes squinted when he saw Reni standing there with her back to him, talking on the phone. Thinking it was none of his business, Niko intended to continue towards the upper floor. However, his steps froze when he heard Reni call someone at the other end affectionately."Yes, Darling. I promise
Niko was truly uncertain whether to disclose this fact to his father right now or not. He wasn't even sure if he was certain about the facts he had just discovered. "I really didn't expect him to be having an affair with Benny. If I report this to Dad, it will surely escalate into an even bigger mess. But if I don't tell Dad, he might cross even more boundaries than this, possibly. Damn, why did I have to catch him in such a family crisis," Niko muttered. He left the place and got into his car.He didn't immediately start the car's engine but instead pondered over what he would do next. He took a sip from the bottle in his hand, then, after finishing, left the place and headed somewhere unknown. He felt a sense of mission about the affair he had witnessed. While on the road, he pulled over and called Daniel again. He had to do something about this. "If I stay silent, he might do even more things that could harm my family or Dad. I'm afraid Dad will be further exploited by that woman.
After all the thugs had left, Elina's family gathered together. Niko appeared happy because Elina and her family didn't have to leave their home, and they were all safe. "Niko, thank you. Thank you for saving our family. We don't know how to repay such a large sum of money. Because of Okin, we ended up like this. We're so grateful to you, Niko," Maya said to Niko, wiping away her tears."We're really thankful to you. We have a lot of forest," added Triya."No need, it's okay. The most important thing is everyone's safe," Niko replied.Listening to the conversation and his family made Okin feel guilty for his impulsive actions. He admitted that he had truly done something terrible that had harmed his family. It seemed that Okin realized that even a thousand apologies wouldn't be enough to alleviate his current guilt. "I'm sorry, Ma, I'm truly guilty. I thought it wouldn't end like this, I thought I would win because I believed in what I would gain, but it ended up like this," Okin said
Niko felt incredibly happy now that he and Elina were officially a couple. That evening, Niko intended to introduce his beloved to his extended family."Isn't this a bit rushed, Niko? I'm feeling a bit nervous," Elina wiped her sweaty palms. Despite knowing most of Niko's family, she still felt inadequate, afraid of being rejected due to perceived differences."Don't worry, it's just a regular dinner and meeting. I promised to introduce you to Dad officially if you accepted me as your partner."After some persuasion, Elina accepted Niko's offer to go to the Nikholas residence.During the ride, both were silent, each battling their nerves. Niko held Elina's hand to provide comfort.Surya, Arshad, and Reni were already at the dinner table when Niko arrived. Raditya was absent, working on an assignment outside. Out of all the pairs of eyes, only Reni appeared surprised that Niko didn't come alone. They had met a few times at the office."Good evening, Dad, Grandpa, Mom.""Good evening, U
