No. She couldn't tell him the truth now. She had gone this far, so there was no way she could dismantle the lies she had composed.So Elena said, “You misunderstand, Reid. I rejected you not because I don't want you, or even hate you, but because... I just got my period. We can't possibly do it.”Elena bit her lip. She really couldn't think of a better reason than this.Elena immediately continued, "And everything you said just now, about me always avoiding you, is definitely just your feeling. Maybe you misinterpreted my attitude. I'm just trying to be careful with you because you're hurt. I don't want to accidentally hurt you."Reid looked at Elena, as if measuring whether Elena was telling the truth or not.In her heart, Elena prayed that Reid would immediately believe her. Because if not, Elena doesn't know what other reason to convince Reid.She is not a writer who is good at making up excuses.Then suddenly Reid took a deep breath. "I'm sorry because I accused you of something f

“Your face feels very familiar, but where do you think I saw you?” said the doctor while squinting at Reid as if he was remembering.Suddenly there was laughter from Elena. “Do you know, Doc? This isn't the first time someone has said something like that. My boyfriend is so handsome he looks like an artist. Do you know the actor who received the best actor award yesterday? Well, many people say my boyfriend looks like him," said Elena, improvising.The doctor laughed along with Elena. He nodded. “It turns out you look like an artist. No wonder your face feels familiar, I must have seen it often on television or in magazines," said the doctor."Yes, doc," replied Elena feeling relieved. Meanwhile Reid didn't comment at all.After that the doctor stopped bringing up Reid's face and focused on carrying out the examination.After a while, the doctor said that Reid was fine and he could go home. The doctor only prescribed painkillers if Reid experienced unbearable headaches again.Elena an

"Yes! I'll sleep in the same bed with you!" Elena exclaimed. She deliberately said it loudly so Reid could hear it clearly and didn't need to ask again.Because if Reid asks again, it's not certain that Elena will have the courage to say anything again. Who knows, the next minute she will be shaken.But before she could waver or change her mind, Reid immediately got up from his lying position on the sofa. The man stood up as fast as lightning."Okay," said Reid, walking straight to the bed.Meanwhile, Elena was stunned on the spot. She wondered whether her decision was the right one? Isn't anything going to happen tonight?“What are you waiting for? Come on, come here," Reid called, patting the pillow next to him. The man was even lying on his side on the bed on the right. His lips curled into a grin."Ben, even though I'm willing to sleep in the same bed with you, that doesn't mean we can..." Elena felt too embarrassed to continue her words."Make love?" Reid, who was kind, continued

The next morning, when Elena woke up from sleep, she immediately sat up, automatically clutching her blanket. But when she realized that she was still wearing the pajamas she wore last night, her grip on the blanket loosened. That means last night was safe, Reid didn't take any chances while Elena was asleep.Remembering the man's name, Elena automatically turned to the bed beside her. Empty. Reid wasn't there.And somehow this made a tinge of disappointment rise in her heart.What did Elena expect?Does Elena want to repeat the same mistake as yesterday? She slipped into thinking that Reid's fragrant body was a special scented pillow until she kept sniffing like a pig in the man's neck.It is not like that. It just crossed her mind that she wanted to enjoy Reid's sleeping face in the morning. The man's sleeping face was amazing, as Elena found out when she cared for him when he was sick in her apartment.Elene threw back the blanket, intending to get out of bed, but suddenly there wa

Initially they returned to the hotel running.Reid asked Elena if she wanted to take shelter first while waiting for the rain to stop, but Elena shook her head. In fact, Elena grabbed Reid's arm and asked the man to run.Reid immediately complied with Elena's invitation without hesitation. The two of them ran along the sandy beach. They almost fell several times because they tripped over rocks.But instead of feeling annoyed, Elena laughed. Thought it was funny. Honestly, the current situation was fun to her. For the first time she felt completely free. Being in the open, running, and holding hands with a man who doesn't make her feel afraid. This is her first time.Elena laughed out loud.Likewise, when they arrived at the hotel, Elena laughed as she bent over, staring at the wet droplets that filled the lobby of their room."Looks like we have to clean up," said Elena, straightening her body."Maybe later," replied Reid, then suddenly his hands grabbed Elena's waist, making her body

Moments beforeReid was the first to wake up. He squinted and smiled at the beautiful woman sleeping beside him.Reid's hand immediately reached out to smooth Elena's hair which had fallen down onto her face. Even with messy hair like this, Elena still looks beautiful, in fact very beautiful according to Reid, especially because Reid himself made her appearance messy.Flashes of their love scene last night flashed through Reid's mind again. How he buried his manhood into Elena's body, how Elena felt so tightly gripping him, how they both exploded in ecstasy.The sweet sound of Elena's sighs rang back in Reid's ears, making the man want to hear it directly again.But considering how passionately they both made love last night, Reid might have to wait a while before making out with his girlfriend again.Last night, after reaching orgasm for who knows how many times, Elena's body immediately collapsed on the bed. Reid could imagine that this morning Elena must still be feeling tired. Rei

Elena stuttered at Reid's accusation. She was surprised by how quickly the situation changed. Just last night they were making love and loving each other, then suddenly now...Elena hurriedly said, “Ben, you misunderstood. No-"“Don't call me by that name. We both know that my name is not Benton Kessler, but Reid Arison," Reid interrupted quickly.Elena widened her eyes at Reid's words. “You have your memory back? B-but how is that possible?” Elena stammered. Yesterday, when Reid fainted and was taken to hospital, the man admitted that he remembered the scene of the attack on the river, but wasn't that just a brief, unclear flash? So how come this morning Reid suddenly remembered his own name? Even complete with his last name. Does this have anything to do with the strange man who appeared in front of their hotel room?Elena stared at the strange guest, not recognizing him.“Yes, my memory has returned. And in my memory, I know that I have never had a girlfriend named Elena. So tell
The First Son's Revenge 118
Does Elena now regret her decision to save Reid? No, she doesn't regret it. Even if given a second chance to go back to that moment, the night when she witnessed Reid's body being thrown into the river by someone ordered by her father, Elena would still choose to do the same thing: save Reid.Because Reid deserves to be saved.Elena clenched her fists, she took a breath before answering all of Reid's questions that seemed to be cornering her."It's true that I did all this on my own initiative, I saved you because of my own will and it had nothing to do with my father or with revenge for my brother's death," Elena began.“When I heard my father was planning to kill you, I knew I had to thwart it, but I didn't know how. I didn't want to go straight to the police because that would mean my father would be caught straight away. I really don't have a grudge against you regarding the fate of my brothers, but that doesn't mean I will remain silent if my father has to have the same fate as t

As Charles Brown said to Anastasia Waverly, the reason Reid Arison didn't come to the office even though he had an important meeting was because he was taking care of his sick wife.After several days of being treated in hospital, the doctor allowed Elena to go home. Apart from experiencing a miscarriage, Elena suffered an injury to her left arm. Luckily her arm didn't break any bones, so her arm didn't need to be put in a cast.Even so, the doctor said that Elena's movements over the next two weeks will definitely be limited, so as much as possible someone should help Elena in carrying out daily activities that require movement of the left arm.Reid, who heard the doctor's words, immediately agreed. "There are many servants in our house who will definitely help her," said Reid.The doctor nodded, not doubting the number of servants in the arison residence which must be countless.Arriving at Arison's residence, Reid immediately gave instructions to several female servants to serve El

Charles Brown leaned back towards Anastasia Waverly, making the woman take a step back because she felt uncomfortable with their close proximity."You are wrong. You don't know who Mr. Arison really is, so everything you say is just your shallowly knowledge about Mr. Arison," said Charles in a sarcastic voice.For the first time, Charles openly shows that he hates Anastasia Waverly.Anastasia Waverly, who is used to receiving praise, certainly does not accept being called shallowly knowledgeable. She replied, “Then what is a real Reid Arison? Is he a person of great and noble character?” Anastasia Waverly again uses a dismissive tone.Charles Brown clenched his jaw. "There's no point in me telling you. From the start you've hated Mr. Arison, so whatever I say about Mr. Arison, you won't believe it," said Charles, then he straightened his body and got up to leave."Wait!" Anastasia Waverly exclaimed while chasing Charles Brown. Because she was in a hurry, Anastasia Waverly didn't pay a

Megan widened her eyes at her daughter's words. Cold sweat started to trickle down her temples.“W-what did you say? I conspired with Harry to harm you? Gosh, Elena, I'm your real mother, how could I do something like that! Just because now you are the wife of a rich Arison, you can be as impudent as you want to be with your mother!" Megan shouted angrily.But instead of feeling guilty about being scolded like that by her mother, Elena just chuckled softly. “Mom, after years of being your child, I know how you lie. You always cover it up by getting angry and shouting louder—like now.”Megan widened her eyes. Her hands were clenched in anger. Why did the situation turn out like this? Where's Elena, her daughter who is usually very easily influenced? Why is Elena suddenly so defiant like this? Ah, damn it, why didn't everything go according to her plans with Harry?Annoyed by feeling cornered, Megan again raised her hand to hit Elena, but this time, even without Reid's help, Elena herse

When Elena woke up, memories immediately flooded her.She remembered what happened before everything went dark. A car speeding behind her, a loud crash that shook her, and darkness that dragged her along.All these memories made Elena's body jolt and open her eyes.Elena was immediately greeted by pain all over her body. Elena wasn't even sure whether she could move her arm, whether it was because she was weak and didn't have the strength or something else, Elena wasn't sure. But one thing she was sure of, she felt her stomach was empty.“What happened to my baby?” Elena asked directly. She saw Reid's figure sitting in a chair next to her bed.Reid didn't respond with words. The man just shook his head slightly with an expression full of sorrow.Without needing to explain further, Elena already understood what he meant. Their baby did not survive.Elena immediately closed her eyes. Tears fell down her cheeks. Sobs escaped her lips, until then her body shook from the flood of thunderou

Hearing Harry's words made Megan smile. She also wants Reid destroyed. But one thought disturbed her."But don't you think that the child Elena is carrying could be our access to Arison's wealth? In other words, Elena is now pregnant with the future heir to the Arison family. Wouldn't it be more profitable for us to let the baby live?" said Megan. She is fed up with living “simplely” since her husband's death. She wants to return to life filled with wealth, even with much more wealth than before. And Megan thinks one of the quickest ways to get rich is to control Arison's property.But Harry just snorted.“You don't need to think about Arison's assets anymore, mom. I already know how to get a lot of money without any effort," said Harry with a meaningful smile.Megan widened her eyes with interest. "Really?""Of course," said Harry with a smug smile. “Now my only goal is to take revenge on Reid. I will make him suffer for the death of Brian and father," said Harry in a determined ton

Elena paced back and forth in front of Reid's study door, still considering whether she should come in or not.She had intended to apologize to Reid, but after hearing Charles' conversation in the kitchen, Elena felt even more guilty towards Reid. And that made her not dare to go in to meet the man, even though she had to go in, right?“Charles, what are you hanging around there for? Come in!" Reid's voice shouted from inside the room, making Elena jump in surprise.Reid must have seen the shadow of her feet on the door and thought she was his personal assistant.Because her whereabouts were already known—even though it was false—it made Elena feel like she had no choice to back out. Elena opened the door to Reid's study slowly.Reid seemed to be leaning back in his work chair with his eyes closed. Elena was sure Reid wasn't asleep yet because the man had just spoken."Get the files on the table," Reid ordered, still closing his eyes.Elena blinked. So Reid still thinks she is Charles

The next morningA head chef was seen serving special food to a long table in the dining room. There were so many kinds of dishes on the table that people who saw it would definitely think that there was a grand banquet in this house. Unfortunately no.Only one person will eat at the dining table, namely the head of the house, Reid Arison.Yes, this is the Arison residence. And the head chef on duty was none other than Belinda Caleste, the maid who was once Reid's spy who was stationed at Clark's residence.After being fired from the Clark residence by Elena, of course Belinda returned to the Arison residence, where she originally worked. In that place, Belinda's position was head chef.“The food is delicious, as usual. Thank you, Belinda," said Reid, who had just eaten the food Belinda made.Belinda smiled. Then the fertile woman said, “Should I call Mrs. Elena is here? I'm sure this food will taste better if eaten together.” Belinda felt sad about the various kinds of food that she

The news about Reid dropping the charges against Harry Clark also reached the ears of the Waverly family. John Waverly and his daughter, Anastasia Waverly, became furious when they heard this. Moreover, they knew that the murder planned by Brian and Harry was not only to harm Reid but also Amanda - even though at that time the plan failed because Amanda had hired people to pretend to be her and Reid. That automatically makes Harry an enemy of the Waverly family too.John and Anastasia could immediately guess why Reid wanted to free Harry, it must be because Reid had just married Elena, Raynold Clark's youngest daughter. Automatically Reid is now also part of the Clark family.“Dad, this can't be left like that. Reid could have freed that criminal just because he married into one of the Clark family!" Anastasia exclaimed with suppressed annoyance. Her white cheeks turned red.Amanda's twin sister was pacing back and forth in her father's study.Usually at times like this when his daug

He wants a divorce."Besides, our relationship recently has not been good," said Daniel briefly.Abigail was stunned to hear that.After going through a series of processes in court, Daniel and Abigail are now officially divorced. The two of them are no longer husband and wife. Abigail moved to her parents' house again.Because since marrying Daniel, Abigail has never worked and only socializes with her friends, she really doesn't have any income, she also doesn't have any special abilities.Fortunately, Abigail's parents really love her and want to accommodate her, as well as accommodate Liam.Liam couldn't stay too long in a hotel—even if he wanted to—because the cost of staying at the hotel Liam ch
