At home, Catherine is now lamenting her fate that was destroyed overnight for no apparent reason. William's company suddenly went bankrupt with various serious problems, William was detained until now, their wedding plans were even canceled. Catherine's dream of becoming Mrs. Turner was shattered, she didn't even know how to continue her life with her baby without William.
Emily arrived home in tears, her florist suddenly caught fire after an electrical short circuit. There was nothing Emily could save there, except for Catherine's favorite red rose that only had one stem left. "Mom! Come here!" Isabelle called. From outside, Zack came with a box containing his personal belongings that he kept in the office. Zack came with a gloomy face, his steps sluggish with teary eyes while carrying an envelope in one hand. Zack was fired from his job for embezzling company money with some of his co-workers, Zack was a little lucky because he only had to replace the money with his entire pension. But the worst part was that he only received a few dollars from his decades of hard work, which was probably only enough to buy food for three weeks. Everyone mourned their hardships, but it seemed that trouble was not yet over for the Foster family. A postman came with a letter with no sender's name addressed to Emily, Emily opened the letter slowly but after seeing the contents Emily was immediately angry. Someone had sent several photos of Zack sleeping with young women, proof of purchase of gambling tokens and Zack's total debt, as well as several hotel and club receipts where Zack spent the company's money. "You son of a bitch! You've been acting like a gentleman all this time but you turned out to be an asshole!" Emily cursed while carrying Zack's baseball stick. "It's all lies, Emily! Someone's been slandering me and trying to destroy our marriage!" "You think I'm stupid? You're an asshole! Get out of my sight, I never want to see you again!" Emily threw all of Zack's belongings, after yesterday Catherine threw Sebastian out now it was Emily's turn to throw Zack out. Catherine was really stressed with all the bad luck that happened in her life, what exactly had happened to her and the people around her? All destroyed without a remainder in a short time, as if someone had planned this all. ******* "Everything is in order young master, according to your wishes." Luigi said after clearing up the things that had been bothering Sebastian. Sebastian who was sunbathing in the pool opened his sunglasses, "Everyone, except Isabelle, right?" "The little girl is safe, it's just that she might be slightly affected." "Make sure she stays okay, no matter what." Sebastian ordered. This was just the beginning of the game, Sebastian had more crazy ideas to counter every insult they had ever said to him. Sebastian had prepared a special place of punishment just for Catherine, where she might not be able to show her face in front of everyone anymore. Several cars entered the mansion's courtyard after they returned from the police station, Andreas looked a little tired and immediately laid his body down by the pool to relieve his fatigue. Andreas hated having to deal with the police, but he was forced to intervene because he didn't want his track record at Turner's company to be traced and get him into legal trouble. He is old and intends to retire, but Sebastian's disappearance for three years has forced him back into his boring routine. "Sebastian, tonight we must return home. Prepare yourself because I've organized a party to welcome you." Sebastian turned to Andreas with an indecisive look, "Dad, but my business here is not finished. I can't leave this country now," "You just need to go back there for a few days, after that continue what you want to do here." Andreas patted Sebastian's shoulder, he understood that three years of humiliation was not easy. As the sky began to darken, Sebastian and Andreas took off in a private jet to return to their home country. The view of the city of E from the top of the plane was beautiful, but the city of E caused Sebastian so much pain. Sebastian closed his eyes so he could rest during the journey, but all he could think about was Catherine's face. Sebastian snorted in annoyance, he abandoned his intention to sleep and instead worked during the trip. "The young master is back!" the guard said at the Belluci mansion's main entrance when he saw Andreas' motorcade arrive. When Andreas got out along with Sebastian, all the guards and servants immediately lined up neatly and bowed respectfully to him. They were happy that the young master had finally returned home, they felt sorry for Andreas who had to take care of all his business and problems by himself in his old age. When they arrived in the living room, a young girl came to greet them. The girl, who was the same age as Isabelle, ran to hug Sebastian, the brother she loved and missed the most. "Tu m'as tellement manqué," she said with teary eyes. "Moi aussi, Suzzane. Ma plus belle sœur et douce comme une pêche." Suzzane hugged Sebastian tightly after hearing his sweet words. Suzzane Bellucci was the illegitimate child of Andreas' affair with his female bodyguard, but Sebastian loved her dearly because Suzzane's mother loved Sebastian more than his own biological mother. "You look a mess, let's go to the salon before the party starts." Suzzane pulled Sebastian into her private salon in the mansion. A luxurious tuxedo made by a famous fashion designer had been prepared for Sebastian, as well as a hair stylist to change Sebastian's rather messy appearance. Looking at the tuxedo in front of him, Sebastian remembers his shabby tuxedo that was stained by a trash can because of Emily's actions. Sebastian recalled the humiliation and betrayal that night, until he unconsciously gripped the tuxedo in his hands until it was almost broken. "What are you doing! You almost ruined this tuxedo," Suzzane said sulkily, seeing that her favorite tuxedo that she had chosen for Sebastian looked a little wrinkled. "Sorry Suzzane, I was just feeling a bit emotional." Suzzane sighed softly, "Alright, now you better take a shower and dress up as handsome as possible. Show that bitch who the real Sebastian Bellucci is." Sebastian raised one eyebrow, apparently Suzzane's temperament hadn't changed one bit. Her face looked so innocent but her words were so cruel, Bellucci's blood did flow well in Suzzane. Not wanting to upset Suzzane further, Sebastian finally left to make himself look much better. Almost an hour had passed, now Sebastian was ready with his new, more authoritative look. Well-organized hair, a clean-shaven beard that made him look much younger and fresher, a black tuxedo that made him look even more charming. Suzzane is stunned by her brother's new look, the man who came in an hour ago looking like a mess now looks like royalty. Sebastian reached out to Suzzane to invite her into the party hall, now filled with several guests that Andreas had invited to welcome him back. Everyone was scrambling to get his attention, some of the women were also starting to steal glances at each other and try to catch his attention. Sebastian honestly hated this, hanging out with sycophants who were always trying to get close to the Belluci family, especially him. They are competing to offer their daughters to become Sebastian's wives no matter if they have to be legal wives or mistresses, with the benefits of wealth that will never run out and unlimited power anyone is willing to pawn their pride. When he became Andrew, all the women rejected him. They did not hesitate to insult him as a loser, a poor man or Andrew the dirt cleaner. Even when he was in love, the woman he loved would not touch him. A brand-new sports car of the year parked in the courtyard of the Belluci mansion, a woman wearing a sparkling black dress with a sexy cut, entered the party with her confidence high. A tall body with a well-proportioned face, golden blonde hair that made her shine under the spotlights, she was like the main star of the party. Her lips, polished with maroon lipstick, smiled flirtatiously at Sebastian as she winked one eye. Sebastian sighed in annoyance at her arrival, while Suzzane couldn't help but laugh at the frustration on Sebastian's face. "Huh, that crazy dog came." he grumbled under his breath.Irish Wright, the youngest daughter of the Wright family who was once matched with Sebastian but Sebastian always rejected her. Although Sebastian rejected her, she never gave up on getting his attention. At least Irish got the support to be with Sebastian, so she is still Sebastian's fiancée while the Wright family and Bellucci are still planning their wedding. "Wow, we really are soul mates, honey. We're wearing the same color clothes, we have the same good taste!" she babbled endlessly. Suzzane poked the back of Irish's hand with one finger, "Actually that tuxedo was my choice, so it's a shame you don't have the same taste as my brother." Irish looked at Suzzane lazily, why was this little girl always near Sebastian and disturbing the romantic moment that Irish was trying to build with Sebastian. While the two women were busy grumbling at each other, Sebastian took the opportunity to escape from them and hide on the second floor balcony of the mansion. He can finally breathe in
Following Damian's invitation yesterday, Sebastian came to Damian's dojo to accept his challenge. Sebastian had actually been reluctant to be here because he had to go back to settle his business with Catherine, but he didn't want to be labeled weak by Damian so he had to waste a little time to visit this place. In the courtyard of the Clair mansion, Damian welcomed Sebastian happily and all of Damian's men bowed respectfully to him. Sebastian arrived escorted by several of his men and of course also Luigi who was always loyal at his side, some of them carrying full weapons just in case they didn't get missed again like three years ago. "Welcome Sebastian, my old friend." Damian greeted as he spread his arms. Sebastian took off his glasses, looking around Damian's mansion which looked more like a military camp than a conglomerate's mansion. "Do you want us to have tea before the match? I have a special tea for you," he put his arm around Sebastian's shoulders. "No need, just get
After almost a day of taking the interview test, Catherine finally passed with the highest score of all test participants. Catherine was immediately placed in the finance department which was indeed short of employees in the payroll staff section, besides that Catherine also got a fairly large salary from this job. Catherine was able to help Emily open a bigger florist, as well as rebuild her family's economy which was in a slump. Catherine returned home feeling so happy, she couldn't wait to share this happy news but it seemed Catherine had to delay her return. Catherine really wanted to eat sorbet ice cream near her old office, Catherine was willing to travel a considerable distance alone just to fulfill her cravings. "Do you like strawberry flavor, my little baby? Mom really likes strawberry but Dad prefers chocolate." said Catherine as if she was chatting with the baby in her womb. Catherine looked around, some people looked intimate with their partners or their small families
"Good morning," Catherine greeted all her co-workers. Some people turned to greet her, but some did not respond to her greeting and instead looked at her sarcastically. Catherine didn't want to care, at least she had tried to be nice as a co-worker. Catherine also bought them coffee, as a sign of introduction. She also brought Emily's homemade cookies for everyone to eat, she hoped her work here would go well even though she knew there were some people who didn't like her much. Catherine was very active at work, she always tried to help anyone who needed her help and completed her own work quickly and accurately. It was soon payroll day, tax payments and the calculation of company profits so some of the finance staff were busier than usual. "Catherine, can you help me for a moment?" Adelle asked. "What do I have to do?" "Please copy this financial report and then sign it in this section, I have to go to the tax office now." "Alright." Catherine happily accepted the data. Cather
"She just came out of the obstetricians, looks like she really did it." Luigi reported after following Catherine. Not long after, Catherine passed right in front of Sebastian's car. But she didn't notice and just kept walking with tears welling up in her eyes, she looked lethargic and clutched her stomach. This was just the first game Sebastian played for Catherine, there were still more things that would make Catherine even more desperate. Catherine should have stopped insulting him at the hospital, but she would rather choose her own death and face a demon like Sebastian. After receiving a call from someone, Luigi immediately drove the car to a club where Sebastian's colleagues were waiting for him. There was no special escort as all of Andreas Sebastian's men were focused on guarding Andreas, accompanied only by Luigi and his personal secretary Sebastian met his colleague in a room rented just for him. "Welcome young master Bellucci," Marco greeted, taking a seat on the sette
Evelyn came in the morning and made a fuss when Catherine had just closed her eyes, carrying a paper leaflet she had gotten from her roommate who had just returned from out of town. This is not an ordinary paper leaflet, Evelyn believes Catherine will be happy to accept the paper. Catherine was trying to gather her consciousness as Evelyn babbled nonstop right in front of her face, she took the paper in Evelyn's hand so that this girl could stop nagging. "Thank you Eve! this is what I need!" Catherine cried immediately rushed to take a bath and dress up as beautiful as possible. "Cathy, wait! take this," Evelyn gave a pair of beautiful shoes for Catherine to wear, it just so happened that Catherine's shoes were not so comfortable to wear. "Oh, thank you Evelyn! You are indeed my best friend." Catherine hugged Evelyn tightly until she was out of breath, after being satisfied with pranking Evelyn, Catherine immediately left to pursue her luck. Catherine arrived at the place that
Sebastian smoked the cigarette in his hand with many questions filling his head about Catherine's condition, until now doctor still hadn't given him any news about her which made him nervous to death. Don't know how many cigarettes he had finished, but none of them had come out until Sebastian finally lost his patience. "No, young master! wait here for a moment, she will be fine." Luigi tried to calm him down before he made a scene in the emergency room. "What are they doing in there! Why are they so slow!" he grumbled as he continued to strike his lighter with trembling hands. This was already the sixth cigarette that Sebastian smoked, Sebastian always smoked quickly when he felt anxious. But what was strange to Luigi was that didn't Sebastian want Catherine to suffer? then why was he so worried and anxious when Caherine was injured? he was even willing to get his favorite suit stained with Catherine's blood and he was the one who looked most worried about Catherine's conditi
Evelyn came after hearing the news that Catherine had an incident at work, she had no idea that Catherine would be treated badly there because all she knew was that Catherine was only accepted as a waitress. With tears in her eyes, Evelyn continued to apologize because Catherine almost lost her baby. If Evelyn hadn't given her the flyer, Catherine probably wouldn't have experienced this."Eve, it's okay. My baby and I are fine, it's not your fault anyway." Catherine tried to calm her down as Evelyn continued to cry."Cathy, I also have a bad news for you. William, he died last night. He took his own life in prison,"Catherine was stunned to hear the news of William's death, she had never been able to see William before and now she got the news that William was dead. Now she had to face the fact that she had to raise a child without a husband, she couldn't even see William for the last time because they had buried him in his dad's hometown.Catherine wiped her tears and tried to be str
