In the room, hot tea was served to both of them, Cedric was calm authoritative and his cruel side was visible in his cold facial expression. He was in severe pain and was confined to a wheelchair. No one would know that he was sick if he could stand up. He had a good and strong mentality from a young age, and that was the case with his granddaughter.

"Is she pregnant yet?" Cedric asked, he had eyes as calm as Aldrich's.

In this very large room, there were only the two of them, and it was too quiet, but for the two of them who loved the tranquility, this was the perfect place, even the sound of the glass as they set it down would not be heard because the two of them maintained the tranquility within themselves.

"Do you think I'm going to die soon?" Aldrich chose to take a sip of the tea in front of him to clear his throat. He put down his drink and continued to stare at Cedric.

The two had the same calm expression, leaving no doubt that they were blood-related.

    Royal blue dress with a bit of black at the bottom, bringing out her luxurious side. Plus, the jewellery attached to her was extravagant, the sparkle of the diamonds added to her beauty.People would find it hard to take their eyes off her, who possessed such beauty. Even she, gazing in the mirror, did not expect that she would have such a stunning appearance from others in admiration.Her hair was half a bun, and the back of the dress was slightly open, accentuating her sexiness even though it would look more like she was an elegant woman. After everything was done, she appeared to be even more perfect. She stood with the heavy dress, which allowed her to move freely. A hand rested on her bare shoulder when she had yet to turn around."You're beautiful," he said right in her right ear, making the sound slightly seductive.Selena was slightly surprised at Aldrich's statement at first, but she saw that she was beautiful. So she nodded her head. She turned around freely and saw Aldrich,

    Selena tried to enjoy this party. She watched from a distance with the man who had chosen to remain silent. The party here was filled with many things that showed luxury and seemed so mysterious at the same time.Not many people were at this party, but it was clear that all the people there were great people with extraordinary abilities and stunning backgrounds. That was a bit of a ruler for feeling inferior."She brought Olivia to this place. I feel like calling out, but that would make the party atmosphere uncomfortable, right?"Selena was too lazy to move her head, looking at Aldrich, who was so calm, this feeling seemed to appear only on her. Even though she knew she was in this place because of the host whose house they were staying in, Selena felt a little overlooked by Aldrich, who was observing from above."He brought a very annoying person."Aldrich finally answered that statement, ignoring her again. The last meeting was a meeting that left a very bad impression. Strongly. A

    Selena's body trembled, both hands holding her lips, she was unable to say anything other than responding with gestures. She continued to watch Aldrich, who was below, becoming the center of attention of the people who were there.She backed away slightly, her eyes widening as a sense of unease washed over her, making her body tremble. Aldrich came from the most powerful family, and the family name was often discussed. But doesn't this make no sense?Rhodes was his father, he was the butler of the Ledger family. How could Aldrich be the son of the Goldstein family?Selena shook her head, it really didn't make sense. Then her eyes met with Aldrich, who raised his head slightly. The calm look in those eyes drew Selena into the extraordinary things that had happened."You... have been planning this all along."Selena immediately realized how mysterious her husband was, he always covered up anything related to her and said things quickly. Everything received by Selena until this moment wa

    They faced each other, and it could be seen that Olivia had such bright eyes. She was happy to see Selena, but as she got closer to Selena, she realized that Selena's expression did not look pleasant. Olivia was now holding herself back lest she do something wrong."I'm so glad you finally revealed your identity." As Jun spoke, she kept looking at Aldrich first when she spoke, always then looking at Selena."I'm sorry, Selena, I've been following her." Jun breathed more freely than before. She found it hard to say something she didn't do like she did it.Selena just nodded her head, she couldn't blame this because she had benefited a lot after getting to know Aldrich. The man whose life had always been surrounded by power."Just meeting us to talk about that?" Aldrich immediately guessed the content of Jun's heart."Yes, I wanted to come to you immediately and find out your situation. And now it seems that you will have to return to the hall soon, there are many people there." he move

    One day passed, and the party was extraordinary not only because of its extravagance but also because the news inside was terrific and shocked the guests.It became the talk of the town, and people were shocked that they had never expected it. Some people who had experienced Aldrich's incredible power regretted what they had done and understood why they were powerless to do anything about it.Selena's position also counted for a lot because she was the wife of the most influential person, who possessed great power. Now that Selena was enjoying her tea with her husband, the atmosphere was calm, and there was no hiding that Selena had a lot on her mind."There are a lot of people contacting me, and most of them I block," says Selena. She didn't hide her annoyance but still looked calm and drank her tea."Good. They're not beneficial and just a nuisance, don't forget what they've done." Aldrich spoke coldly, he placed something in the hand of the servant from beside him. A pen was used e

    Selena was calm. She gave a smile with no meaning at all. "Yes, Mr. Ludwig. You must know who I am. What is the need?" Selena asked calmly, she showed an attitude that made Ludwig quite surprised by her actions.The woman who came from the city of Meldham could be this calm. Very unexpected."I didn't expect you to be such an elegant woman." Ludwig smiled, but it didn't comfort Selena at all.Selena was watching him with calm eyes. Ludwig finally spoke again to explain something else to the woman before him. "You could also say that I am your husband's brother." The words were so clear that Selena was silent, watching the man before her. She did not expect that this handsome man also had a relationship with Aldrich.Just as she was surprised, Aldrich appeared; he walked calmly and now and stopped between them. His expression, as usual, made it difficult to guess what he was thinking."Even if we are cousins, we have no relationship at all."That statement did not take away the smile o

    In the dining room, the cold atmosphere with tension felt so strong in my body. Dealing with people who had a prominent position was a difficult thing to overcome, even though she had tried. Aldrich and, by default, Cedric, since both of them were people with minimal expression and minimal speech, Selena should be able to deal with Cedric efficiently. However, it was different because they were not used to being together."Do you like dinner here, Selena? Do they cook to your taste?" Cedric wiped his mouth with the napkin there, looking straight at the woman who had become his grandson's wife."I like it very much, Grandfather. The chefs here really have an amazing ability to cook food."Selena gave a sincere smile, Cedric nodded and continued eating. Selena looked relieved that the powerful man seemed to accept her answer quickly.As for Aldrich, he was enjoying his meal well. What sounds were rarely heard in this dining room, and when Selena and Aldrich stood together, they faced C

    They finished the drink in the glass, Since this was not to intoxicate themselves, they were only limited to completing the drink that Aldrich had poured.As her husband said, it was confirmed that the alcohol content of the drink she was drinking now was so high that she was already dizzy.She needed help from her husband to get to her bed, and after that, she flung herself onto the bed and fell into a deep sleep. Aldrich noticed Selena after he had covered her up to her neckline."You look like a baby." he was stunned by Selena's beauty, and for those few seconds, he enjoyed the beautiful sight. Then, after that, he let his wife enjoy her sleep.Before anyone woke up, Aldrich was already very busy with much work, which he often did. There were many files in his office, and he had managed to finish them while having a drink to warm up his body."Is everything alright, Jose?" Aldrich knew that the person who had just entered was Jose without needing to see him because of the distincti

    He quickly dismounted, and the servant immediately took the horse that Jun had just given them. Without saying anything else, he immediately went in to see the birth of his nephew.He could not pass up such a wonderful thing and would envy others for being present at the birth of the future successor to this great family. As he walked into the house, many servants seemed to be busy arranging things for the birth of their young master.A servant had met Jun and had directed him to another area, one that was dedicated as a hospital-like setting for the Goldstein family.He arrived at a bustling scene of people at the front door where Aldrich, who she had not expected to be this busy, was seen. The man walked from one side to the other repeatedly, which was very different from how he always acted.Jun was already there and spoke while looking at her friend. "Calm down, you better sit down now," Jun spoke but was stared at coldly by Aldrich. He did not listen to what his friend was saying

    The loud gunfire was heard, and the birds in other parts of the place flew into the sky because they heard the great sound of gunfire. They sensed danger with just such a thing. The figure who had just shot noticed his target, who had fallen to the ground and was covered in blood. On the horse, he looked back coldly."Oh yes, you are perfect indeed. Look at you taking down a huge deer." Jun exhaled. Even though he had gotten a deer earlier, its size was very far compared to what Aldrich was getting now.Aldrich walked leisurely towards her immobilized quarry, followed by Jun. "You can't beat me any day." The man who heard it immediately nodded his head. He did not expect such a thing at all because he was the one who observed Aldrich most closely.The two men were hunting in the area of the Goldstein family home. This forest-filled and vast area had intentionally wild animals, when they were in space, the family usually would spend time hunting here. And the two of them met because th

    This was their first meeting for two months, even when her brother was not married, the woman could not come because there was something she had to do. Her appearance in front of Selena surprised Selena a little. Because Olivia's appearance looked different from the last time they had seen each other. The woman was indeed badly injured from fighting the aliens. After that, she healed herself and trained herself.Her skin looked very charming, exotic brown, and her hair was short. But she still had a distinctive smile on her face when greeting Selena. "Good to see you again, Selena."They met without the presence of Kate. Olivia immediately saw Selena's large beak, and she smiled. "It's nice to give that little one a world of peace."Selena nodded her head, and she rubbed her stomach a few times. "This is because of Aldrich's hard work." every time she thought of Aldrich, there were many things that the man had done. He was a very stubborn and hard-working person, such a great figure t

    When they arrived, manyny people immediately saw them, they had attracted the attention of those there. No one did not know their names because of what they did. Especially Aldrich Goldstein. That man was the main star of the day, but he was still very eye-catching.The starring figure smiled a little at the altar where the wedding was taking place. He was holding the hand of the woman who was his partner, just now the two of them had kissed because their marriage had become legal.Now, they were moving away from that place, the hall of the enormous party venue. "Look at them dancing. They're so good together." Selena spoke, glancing at Kate and Jun, dancing in the hall's center. Everyone was watching them and debating about it."Yeah," Aldrich didn't know what to make of the sight that didn't interest him.After the dance was over, many people were also left to dance, and it was at this time, Aldrich reached out to Selena. "What's wrong?" Asked Selena, looking confused."Dancing, of

    Although the alien attack ended a few months ago, that did not mean Aldrich would not think about it anymore. In fact, this man was already preparing in case they came back to Earth one day."All the stones from the Sea have been removed, Master. And a search for patterns or something strange is also underway." Pedro gave information to Aldrich."Do it well." he only replied briefly because he knew his people were working well. From a distance, he could see his men doing their job.Now, she refocused on the figure in front of her. She looked calm as she took a sip of her hot coffee. "You've been so busy, even though it was only a few months ago, and you were appointed world leader. Aren't you tired?" Jun questioned that he was watching his friend closely. Perhaps the question was a little mundane because he knew the answer."This is the perfect time for me to build something bigger, something they can't interfere with. And show what the Goldstein family is capable of," he answered wit

    Two months after the alien attack was over, the construction of the places affected by the alien attack had been completed. People could live as before, full of purpose, and their ambitions were as before, wanting a better life.And the figure who had achieved his goal was standing confidently as his presence without saying anything made others bow to him. He was Aldrich Goldstein, having earned the position he wanted as the world leader because of his merit and outstanding hard work. The people admired him greatly, and it was the people who pushed him to become a leader that no one could challenge."It's just as you said, Aldrich. You don't need to interfere anymore is that it's the people who moved to get you into that position." Selena complimented her husband, who had just approached her.The man had just given a speech on his appointment as the world leader, and now he was sitting back together with Selena. The look in his eyes was still so calm. "Yes, that's smart work." He admi

    A flurry of activity was happening worldwide, especially in the city that had just been attacked. They immediately cleaned up, and their mouths did not stop talking as they witnessed something crazy.Those crazy reporters captured a video that was incredible to all the people of the world. Something that they could not defeat. Even their government had been defeated by a man who was the 8th leader of the Necton region."If those reporters hadn't been reckless like this, we wouldn't have known about the service he has rendered." a woman spoke, her cell phone still in hand. She and her friend were witnessing something truly crazy.The woman nodded her head. "That's right, Mr. Aldrich has defeated the alien with his own hands. But unfortunately, that last part is all they got." the woman exhaled, still feeling confused, but that's why they slowly returned to normal life.Because of that incident and the scattered footage, people called the aliens heroes. They admired that figure so much

    The ground was hollowed out from the powerful push from above. People could feel the vibrations. A woman in a shelter, in a bunker belonging to the Goldstein family, watched this battle uneasily from the large screen in front of her.The still injured Yesi and the many servants ready to guard Selena were beside her. They were always prepared to do anything in case something bad happened. As for Jose, he was the one who organized the movements of the people and robots that assisted Aldrich.Selena's eyes did not move. She wanted to know what happened there until finally, the observation camera they flew could capture what happened next. Selena just smiled when she saw her husband still standing and deflecting the attack the aliens gave.Agnius looked again at that, not expecting that the powerful fist he had just done could not succeed against Aldrich. Just as he had parried Agnius' hand, he suddenly changed his movements, making him take off with that and immediately slammed him to the

And just then there was a retaliation that happened to them, the airplane they were traveling in was suddenly shot at and crashed."T-this... is impossible!""Maintain balance!"The noisy voices were heard, and they immediately gave orders and looked panicked. Inside the plane, they experienced quite a strong pressure. Not what they thought.How could humans do something like this to them?Now their plane was falling down, surrounded by many robots.
