The rain was soaking the ground. Selena watched the raindrops from the veranda of her room. She was only wearing a cream-coloured coat that covered her imperfectly. Aldrich, who had just walked into the room, immediately got behind Selena and hugged her gently. "Are you still thinking about the previous one?"Selena only slightly moved her head to make her position more comfortable as Aldrich rested her chin on her tiny shoulder. "Yes, it's very imprinting, I find it hard to forget."Aldrich didn't say anything to her. It was a common thing. She really thought that Selena really knew Jun was joking with them. And just then, he noticed that the woman's eyes turned sharper than before."Come out, we'll have tea with her." They had not yet left the Goldstein family's special hospital.For now, they chose to disappear or avoid the public. The matter of losing a large number of people must have spread, indirectly, they would also be dragged in, and the other families involved in the affair
After their conversation with Jun was over. Now Aldrich and Selena were walking together in the still-wet garden from the raindrops.They had been walking since a few minutes ago without talking at all. All they did was look around and observe."Are you feeling tense?" Selena finally spoke as she touched a flower with her left hand. She didn't see Aldrich then, but when she turned off Aldrich's answer, she saw him."I've never felt anything like that." the answer from Aldrich made Selena exhale. She again indicated a big difference between them since she had been afraid of having experienced many things that made her feel it was impossible, unlike Aldrich.They resumed walking. "I feel tense." Selena described her feelings this time. There was a big feud involving many people as the one who experienced the change. It was impossible for her not to share that tension.There was in her mind the possibility of them losing, getting hurt more or losing someone. She unconsciously thought abo
They moved quickly. Selena was in a hurry to keep up with Aldrich's fast movements. They used a helicopter to speed them up because they were far from the Goldstein family's main house.Jun also followed them, but there was no conversation at all. Aldrich seemed to have a sharp gaze. The helicopter moved quickly to the designated area, and when they arrived, there was thick smoke at several points. Selena watched it with utter horror. She had goosebumps but was still in reasonable control of herself, calm as if nothing had happened even though it was a horrifying sight.A few seconds later, they had landed. The helicopter engine was still running, and the three hurriedly exited. The distance from the main house to the aircraft was quite far to avoid a more significant fire. Jose had arrived there ahead of his master. He looked down. "Master..."Before he could finish his sentence, Aldrich pushed Jose's body out of the way and stepped closer to the mostly destroyed house. Selena could
The chaos here was quickly cleaned up by the people. From the enemy's side, there were also some casualties they could not take away from here. The people loyal to Aldrich did their best to protect this place, but a large explosion was quite tricky for them to avoid, so the previous head of the family was hit by it, and because his body was in an unstable state, it became an even harder pressure, so Cedric died.Aldrich looked at the pile of corpses in front of him. They were in another building, and Jose was beside him as usual. "These people used the path they created. We were fooled because they used the underground, Master." Jose gave a report on how they got into the main center of the Goldstein family home.Aldrich moved to look at it slowly. "Of course there's a traitor, haven't you found him yet?" The last time they had dealt with traitors, they had purged the people who had previously worked here. Those who lacked ability and were a burden were immediately removed, and usuall
Selena was a person who was used to using feelings, she knew anger, sadness, fear, anxiety. everyone had feelings even if that person was a great person. The moment she heard Aldrich speak like that her heart felt cut, she knew Aldrich had gone through many scary things, even Selena had never thought of. An heiress whose life seemed unusually pleasant had experienced terrible things.The man was nonchalant when he said it, there was no change of expression at all. there was anger in Selena so she walked faster while pulling Aldrich's hand, the man followed Selena's footsteps, they moved away from the crowd of people and were now in the labyrinth garden which gave privacy to the two of them.Selena squeezed her own hand, she looked down, Aldrich saw but he couldn't figure out why Selena was acting like this. "You don't have to talk casually like that about your grandfather in front of me!" Selena looked at Aldrich this time, her eyes were teary it was obvious she was holding back tears
Selena pointed to herself, confused by what Aldrich had just said. She understood, for example, that if she was targeted because of her husband's existence because she had become Aldrich's wife, then people would think Selena was her husband's weakness.But her husband was saying that the main target was Selena. She had no power to be targeted by others or have conflicts with prominent people, which confused her. The fact that she was among the prominent people since she was married to Aldrich."You mean, they're really after me?" Selena asked again, still pointing at herself.Aldrich understood why Selena looked confused, so the woman was probably hearing the name Silver Fang for the first time. He didn't want to talk about this, but something that didn't seem involved in their business was getting more involved and complicating things.He continued to stare at his wife, his gaze calm yet deep. "You once asked about my father. It is your father's mafia group that is now led by your f
The sound of the bell rang. It was a bell that was not too big but could be heard by the people in the area of the Goldstein family's main house. Everyone who was there was wearing black clothes. They had gloomy expressions. There were no guests from other extended families. Only the successor and his wife, Jun, were there.The grave had been dug, and now the black coffin had entered the ground, then the floor began slowly covering it. The people there witnessed this. Not taking their eyes off the scene in front of them. When the funeral was over, the people who were servants and other workers who wore black clothes had stepped aside, and only three people were there.Jun placed a white rose on the grave. He then turned around and looked at Aldrich, still staring at his grandfather's grave. "I will go home first."After saying that, Jun walked away from them, leaving Aldrich and Selena there. He understood that the two people needed time to calm down. Selena held Aldrich's shoulder, t
They ate breakfast together, a bit different from the usual breakfast in this house. Three people were at the table, but one was an invited guest this time.The breakfast they were having was quiet. The few people there served them well, and Jun had finished his breakfast faster than anyone else."I'll be leaving here soon." Jun had also been away from home for quite some time, especially since he was also a heiress of a famous family. Of course, there were some things he had to do even though he had informed them, but still, he had to come back soon.Aldrich slightly moved his head to look at the man before him. "You can leave now if you wish." He responded casually, and it made Jun exhale.He shook his head, and even now, he looked at Selena to ask for help from her on this matter. "You are still so cruel to me, I love it here, in fact, if I could, I would take pictures of every side of the house and then post them on social media, which would make everyone jealous of me."Jun puffe
