The clock on the wall was already past seven in the evening. The family should have been eating their dinner with relish. However, due to the absence of just one person, they were asked to wait until that person arrived.The only woman with bright red lipstick nearly slammed down the spoon and fork she was holding. Her stomach was already rumbling, but she was asked by her husband to hold on a little longer."Don't let Michel eat alone," Alberto muttered."Then let us all starve?" interrupted Michel's stepmother Claire.If only she hadn't been taught to be a noblewoman, she would have snatched the roast chicken and taken a bite right away. However, just imagining it felt horrible. There was no way she could do that."Father, let us eat first. It's not like he'll be home in a few minutes," Michel's half-brother Brion complained."In a few minutes. In a minute," Alberto said.In that house, Alberto was the only one in charge. If Alberto said no, it meant that no one had the right to res
Hearing what Brion said, Alberto immediately looked at the man sharply. Brion could only sigh, he was silent and continued eating dinner.Meanwhile, at Erick's apartment."The Michel I met at the boutique yesterday was not Michel-my poor ex-husband. You should know, darling, he's well-dressed. From head to toe, even the vehicle that carries him is all expensive goods. I know it's all genuine. I'm quite observant," said Elera yesterday after returning from the boutique and admitting to meeting Michel.Erick clenched one hand ready to throw his fist at the wall. I don't know why he was still reminded of Elera's story last night. Between believing and not, but Elera's words were so convincing."How can someone's life change in just a moment? Where did Michel get his wealth?" Erick muttered angrily.He didn't like it when Michel was above him. Erick wanted the man to suffer, and end up having nightmares every night.After the incident where Michel found out that Elera was having an affair
The house was quiet. Alberto folded the newspaper and placed it on the glass table in the center of the sofa.One of the servants who worked with him passed by carrying cleaning tools. Alberto called out, the servant turned around and approached his master."Where is my wife? Is Claire still in her room?" asked Alberto looking upstairs for a glimpse."Yes, sir," replied the servant nodding."Claire didn't come out at all?" Alberto asked again."No, sir. Madame Claire asked me and the other maids to take care of her today. She said she was too lazy to leave her room."The maid's explanation was enough. Alberto asked the servant to go back to work. Meanwhile, he was about to go to his room to see Claire.I don't know if it was just Alberto's feeling or not. This morning Claire seemed to have deliberately not come to the dining room because she was still angry about last night's dinner.Alberto let out a long sigh. Isn't Claire's nature very childish if that's true? Alberto didn't expect
"Where the fuck are those two guys." Erick hissed, throwing his cell phone on the sofa.Not a single call was picked up by James or Rio. Erick had no one but the two of them to ask for information about Michel.Erick had tried to contact the two men a dozen times. Sent messages, but none were read."Actually, where are the two of them? There's no way that after receiving money from me, they decided to leave, right?" Erick wondered.Even the money Erick had given them was very small. It wouldn't be worth the monthly salary they received if it was collected in just a few months. So, it was ridiculous.Erick then sat on the sofa. He put his feet up on the table. He tried to calm down, neutralizing the angry feelings that were building up."I'll go crazy if I don't find information about that poor guy." Erick propped up his chin. "Elera's story was very convincing yesterday. There's no way she lied to me. What's the point?"Erick was very curious about where Michel got that wealth. The ca
"James!" exclaimed Michel.The call that came from their CEO got the attention alone of the remaining people in the room. James stopped at the doorway, cursing inwardly at having his movements discovered by Michel."Damn it." James raised a hand almost grabbing his own hair.Rio heard Michel calling James in a fairly loud voice. Rio slowly approached Michel, then made small talk.James saw the reflection of Rio and Michel from the glass window in front of him. This was used as an opportunity by James to get out of there before he was detained by Michel."What is it, Mr. Michel?" Rio asked, distracting Michel."Wasn't that James?" muttered Michel pointing to the man who had now disappeared behind the door.Rio followed where Michel's fingertips pointed. "Oh, right, it was James. But, what did Mr. Michel call him for? Isn't the meeting session over?"Michel shifted his gaze from James to Rio. "Where does James want to go? The meeting session is already over. But, it's still working hour
"Why, you don't want to help me anymore?" Erick scolded with a sharp look.James was in an awkward position. Because he had promised Michel that he would not have any more contact with Erick. Moreover, helping the man find out all the latest things about Michel is full of mystery."That's not it, Mr. Erick," squeaked James rubbing the back of his head."Then, what? I'll pay you handsomely. As long as you get the information I ask for. Not hard, is it?" asked Erick. James shook his head quickly.If he took Erick's offer, then the consequences James would receive were worse than yesterday. Michel threatened to fire him if he was caught working with Erick again. But, on the one hand James couldn't refuse the money the man was offering him."Give me some time, sir." James pointed one finger. "However, Michel is not an ordinary staff member anymore. He goes around accompanied by an assistant. If I make the slightest misstep, my life is ruined." James explained so Erick wouldn't misundersta
Erick's story about Michel is still ringing in Elera's ears. Too much change makes Elera between convinced and unsure.Her poor ex-husband is now the leader of a big company. Everyone is subservient, respecting Michel for having power.Elera lightly applied lipstick to her lips before adding more. "It can't be helped. I have to see it for myself. Hearing from other people's stories sometimes makes me question whether it's the truth or not."The beautiful woman got up from her makeup chair. She grabbed a shiny black handbag. "Today I'll make sure of everything. But if it's true that Michel is now rich. I would feel sorry. I know I'll still make him my husband." Elera cigars.Elera secretly went to Michel's office this morning. Investigating, Michel's ex-wife wanted to confirm the stories from the people herself. Even though the first person to spread that Michel had changed was shr herself. Or ... is this just Elera's tactic because she wants to get the man back after throwing him away
The cell phone in Elera's bag rang loudly. One hand rummaged through the contents of her bag and pulled out the square object. Elera picked up the call as soon as she realized who was calling her."Hello, darling." Elera greeted sweetly and affectionately."Elera, are you away today?" Erick asked. Yes, the person who called her was Erick.Elera didn't want to be caught by her boyfriend. Therefore, Elera quickly picked up the call."Yes, dear." Elera moved her cell phone to her ear. "I asked your permission yesterday. Today I want to go shopping. I want a bag from one of the famous brands. I want to wear it to my friend's birthday party this week.""Shopping?" muttered Erick."Yes. What's wrong, darling?" asked Elera nervously.From the way Erick spoke, it was as if he didn't believe her. Or did Erick know that Elera was stalking Michel? Elera immediately panicked."Are you sure you're going shopping, darling?""I'm sure... I am." Elera rubbed the tip of her forehead. "Honey, you can't
Mr. Alberto, who was already angry, did not want to complicate the matter further, such as quarreling with Catherine who was involved in Michel's entrapment plan. He immediately acted seriously and firmly on Brion and Catherine. First, Mr. Alberto met someone who had a high rank in the police. For what else if not to give an order to arrest Brion. "Long time no see, Mr. Alberto." The uniformed man greeted Mr. Alberto, whose face was sour. "Sorry to contact you so suddenly. But, I didn't want to take too long to make an arrest report," explained Mr. Alberto, in other words he was taking advantage of his relationship in the police force. "Is there anything that needs to be resolved?" asked the man in uniform named Alex. Mr. Alberto sighed heavily, then he nodded. Even though he was angry, it was still his own son he was reporting. "Arrest my son. Brion."Alex was stunned, he seemed to have misheard Mr. Alberto's order. Because even if it was a little, Alex knew who Brion was. "Ar
In an all-white room, a man was seen blinking his eyes. Staring in confusion at the ceiling of the room that felt unfamiliar."Where is this?"Beside him a man stared in disbelief at what he saw. The man blinked, a little surprised to see someone who had been lying on a hospital gurney for quite some time, now opening his eyes."Mr. Michel," muttered the man after ending his shock.Michelle, who heard her name being called, turned her head. Quite surprised when she saw who the person currently beside her was."Daniel?"Daniel nodded, feeling happy that the man had finally regained consciousness. "Don't move yet, Mr. Michel, I'll get the doctor," Daniel said when he saw Michel who was just about to move his body.Michelle just nodded, agreeing to what Daniel said. Her mind was currently confused. His memory was instantly spinning in his head, Michel last remembered if he was at home and was about to go out. But suddenly his head was dizzy and a light flashed until he fainted unconsciou
Aliya still couldn't believe what she had just heard. Even though it had been explained and it didn't seem like Michel was lying at all, it was still so hard for Aliyah to believe what the man in front of her was saying.Had something like that ever happened to anyone else? Aliyah had never even thought about this before. She only thought that her husband had changed and started to love her. But now what were the facts? Aliyah could not believe it."Morgan, please don't say something impossible."Aliyah then tried to put her palm right on Michel's forehead, trying to see if the man was currently sick and was delirious and saying such impossible things.But Michel's body temperature was normal, indicating that the man was not sick and was fine. Michelle tried to gently push Alliyah's hand away, then shook her head softly. "I'm not sick Alliyah, what I said is true Alliyah. I'm not lying."Alliyah shook her head, and then said, "Have you found a woman that you are comfortable with? Tha
Michel pulled the corners of his lips up after getting the footage he needed. He then put his cell phone back as proof of his innocence.He turned his gaze back to the man who was currently rambling. The man was still talking, as if the man was indeed in the middle of being drunk and did not realize what he was talking about.It felt like Michel wanted to rush away and leave Brion alone. But for some reason Michel now approached Brion and began to hold the man's shoulders."Come on, I'll take you home." With Brion on his shoulders, Michel began to walk out of the room. Some of the customers stared at the two of them, as if they were in the middle of watching a movie.Michelle, of course, paid them no mind. She continued to carry Brion away and got into Brion's car which was parked in the parking lot.It was already 11:00pm, but for some reason Michael thought that it was really late, as if Michelle couldn't wait to get home.He sighed as he looked back at the man beside him who was de
Michelle, who was still in the bar, sighed when she saw Brion still with the women. Even though previously the man had felt dizzy and heavy in his head, but now this still continued with the women pouring drinks into Brion's glass again.Brion who felt happy of course immediately drank everything given by these women. He didn't even care if he got drunk and made a mess."You'd better stop Mr. Brion, you've had too much to drink."Even though Michek had tried to get the man to stop drinking, the man did not listen to him at all. Michek was able to regain his breath when Brian did not heed his words."You'd better shut up, sir, here you are just a subordinate of Mr. Brion."Monica, who was already annoyed because the man in front of them wanted to ask Brion to leave, unconsciously began to insult Michel. Michel did not listen to what the woman named Monica said. He also preferred to look the other way rather than see what the two of them were doing. If only he was still at the discoth
"I didn't expect you to actually have crazy hallucinations, Miss." Monica gave a satisfied smile that mocked Nesya. Nesya immediately glared at Monica's mockery. Of course, those words really hurt Nesya's pride. "It turns out you're just an ex-lover who can't forget Brion. What a pity," Monica continued to add to her mockery. "Woah, are you mocking me?" Nesya quipped in an exasperated tone while laughing sarcastically. "You just met Brion and you're already acting like you're going to be liked by Brion?" Monica folded her arms across her chest and wore a proud expression. "Of course. A moment ago Brion told me he was interested in me," Monica said proudly. Nesya's forehead wrinkled in displeasure at Monica's words. Nesya immediately looked at Brion sharply as if asking for clarification from the man. "That's right. I am indeed interested in Monica. We're not in a relationship anyway, Nesya. Why are you mocking Monica?" Brion replied. Nesya didn't seem to expect that Brion woul
"Are you Brion, the son of Mr. Alberto, the famous company owner? You're also the one who often appears in news articles?" A woman suddenly approached Brion who was talking to Michael. Brion and Michael's attention immediately shifted to the woman. After accompanying Elere with all the woman's complaints, Michel was now invited by Brion to one of the famous bars. Brion's intention in coming to the place was of course to find out what made the place interesting, so that Brion could make his discotheque even more interesting.Brion noticed that the woman beside him looked quite luxurious. Her eyes flirted with a seductive smile. "Yes?" Brion replied rather lazily"I'd like to sit next to you, shall I?" the woman asked. Brion looked at Michael who was equally confused. But in the end, Brion nodded his head to allow her. "I'm Monica," the woman said, extending her hand. "I've been very interested in you ever since I read the news article about you for the first time." "Ah... I'm gra
The night was getting late and the visitors kept coming. Michelle, who felt that the visitors had been coming non-stop, could only sigh and grumble.She certainly did not expect at all if this discotheque was really so crowded compared to other discotheques that Michel had known. No wonder Brion is now reluctant to inherit and be in Alberto's office, considering that this discotheque business is really so crowded that even the results of the customers who come are really so much.I don't know since when this discotheque has been so crowded with visitors, but even so, Michel, who feels that if Brion has treated him badly, he will destroy what Bryan has and teach the man a lesson for making his good name disappear.Michelle certainly realizes that this is not only the work of Brion, but also of the man's mother who also slandered him until Alberto threw him out and ended up in the body of someone named Morgan.Had the two of them not kept him from Alberto's house, it is possible that Mi
Michelle, who had just arrived in front of the discotheque, immediately got down when she saw someone standing right in front of the discotheque. The person was none other than Brion. It seemed like Brion had been waiting for her arrival so that he arrived right in front of the discotheque.Whether her guess was right or not, but Michelle immediately got off the bike and approached Brion who was now staring at her arrival.It seemed that Brion was looking at Michelle from the bottom to the top, as if the man was in the middle of making sure that the one in front of him at this time was Michel... the clothes that were a little wet because of the heavy rain, turned out to be about Michelle who had just arrived."I'm sorry that I came late boss." Michelle tried to apologize to the man in front of her who was none other than her boss.But Michel's words were completely ignored by the man in front of him. As if the man in front of him was looking for something, that something was none othe
