The day of the declaration arrived, Blaire was nervous and fearful of the outcome of her bid. Javier noticed this, he walked over to his wife and took her hand. Javier smiled at his wife, trying to calm her down.

"I know you must be nervous and afraid that this plan won't work out, but don't worry, Blaire," Javier said to Blaire, but Blaire still looked nervous.

"Of course I'm scared, I don't want to be separated from you, Jav! What if...."

"Blaire, do you trust me?" Blaire nodded his head, he trusted Javier but he couldn't get rid of his fear.

"Then don't be afraid, I won't leave you. I'll take care of all this, so you just need to shut up and trust me, do you understand?" Sighing, Blaire nodded her head again.

"Yes, I understand and I will trust you with everything," she replied.

"Now let's get everything ready, your family will be here any minute." Blaire went to the kitchen to make a meal for her family while they were at her house.

Soon, the doorbell rang, the Watsons had arrived to wait for the Ford Group's announcement.

"Jav, they're here! Open the door," Blaire shouted from the kitchen, Javier who was cleaning up the living room immediately went to open the door.

"Hello, welcome!" Javier greeted them politely but without caring about Javier, they entered the house with a haughty attitude.

"What a long time!" Bella complained as she followed her mother inside.

"Sorry, I was cleaning up the house so I took a while to open," Javier said, always trying to be polite despite the Watsons' contempt and disdain for him.

"Have you come? Come sit on the couch, I'll get the drinks and food ready." Blaire came over to her mother and sister, and they looked at Blaire's appearance with disgust. Blaire was about to hug them but Bella pushed her away.

"Ah disgusting! Don't touch me!" Bella shouted as she hid behind her father's body.

"Why, I took a shower and I'm wearing clean clothes." Blaire was saddened by her brother's words, she checked her own clothes and felt that they were clean.

"You look like a servant." Now it was her mother who spoke.

Javier who heard it all felt angry, he didn't like his wife being treated badly like that by his own family.

"If only you had married a rich man, you wouldn't be like this," Anne quipped as she gave Javier a sharp glance and Javier couldn't help but smile.

"You guys should sit down, why isn't dad here? Is he busy?" Javier tried to change the subject and invited his mother-in-law and sister-in-law to sit on the sofa.

"Of course my husband is busy! Not like you..." They continued to insult Javier and treat him like a trash can in his own home. The Watsons always treated Javier as someone lower than them, even though Javier already knew what their past was like and how they became like this.

Javier took a deep breath, this was not the time to be angry, he had to do his plan well so that he could return to his place and make them realize who Javier really was.

"I have to stay calm, because the time will come soon." Javier smiled even wider, he was happy that his plan was working.

"Let's turn on the TV! Why are you keeping quiet?" His mother-in-law shouted, making Javier immediately turn on the TV and wait for the Ford Group's announcement.

Blaire sat beside Javier and held his hand so tightly, Javier knew that Blaire was nervous again. Not only Blaire, they were all waiting with bated breath and curious about the results.



A few minutes later, on TV they could see a man appearing while sitting in front of many reporters.

"Oh now it's starting, but who is he? Is he a representative of the Ford Group or is he the new CEO?" Just as Bella asked, the man on TV spoke.

"Hello, good evening everyone. My name is James, I am the secretary of Mr. Linford, the new CEO of our company." The man named James introduced himself, and no one realized that the last name of the new CEO that James mentioned was the same as Javier's last name. They probably wouldn't believe that the new CEO of the big company was with them.

"I'd like to thank everyone who bid on our company, we're very happy that you're all looking forward to the outcome of this bid."

Javier somehow became nervous, occasionally glancing at his mother and brother-in-law who seemed to be busy watching TV.

"Are they going to announce it now? Or is Adam planning something else outside of my instructions?" Javier began to hesitate, he was afraid that the result would not go according to his plan.

"If it does, I have to think of something..." Javier looked at his wife, he was afraid that Blaire would become more worried because they had made an agreement with his mother and brother.

"But since there are so many companies bidding, we're still trying to choose. That's why we can't tell you the results of the bidding for now." Everyone sighed in disappointment, especially Javier, he was frustrated with the seemingly never-ending wait.

"We hope you'll be more patient, and thank you for listening to me. Good night and see you soon!" The news ended after James stepped off the podium.

"You heard, right?" His mother-in-law spoke up immediately while giving Javier a sharp look.

"There are a lot of companies making offers, do you think someone like Blaire will get the offer? He'll lose out to people from other big companies!" she snapped, causing Blaire to hang his head in fear.

"This all happened because of you, Javier! You're the one who ruined our family!"

"Mom, calm down. Javier did this because he wanted to help our family..." Even though she was terrified, Blaire still had to defend her husband. While Javier just sat there, he could already guess that the Watsons would hate him even more for this but Javier would bear it because this was the risk of his plan.

"Help what? It's called destroying, Blaire! You should have stopped him!" Bella retorted sarcastically.

"I don't want to see you together again, that offer won't work! You need to get a divorce right now!" Anne ordered and Blaire immediately shook her head in refusal.

"I don't want to, mom!" Blaire shouted, she was about to get up and Javier quickly pulled her hand away and signaled her to calm down.

"Mom, the results aren't out yet. We still don't know what the outcome will be, and I'm sure we'll win." Javier finally spoke and his words made Anne and Bella laugh.

"Why are you so sure? You think it's easy to get their bid?" asked Bella mockingly.

"Wake up, Javier! Ford Group is a big company, they wouldn't choose someone as useless as Blaire."

"What are you dreaming about that you're this confident? You're so confident that you don't realize your lowly position."

"Stop embarrassing us, and leave," Anne ordered sternly.

"I don't know why I'm so confident, but I'm sure that we'll win."

"Alright, I'll make another bet. If I win my unborn child will be the sole heir of the family and inherit all the family property..."

"Are you crazy? No, mom! I don't agree!" shouted Bella refusing to agree to Javier's bet.

"Aren't you sure that I won't win?" asked Javier but Bella kept shaking her head.

"Bella, sit down. You think he'll get the offer? Only a fool would believe that," said Anne.

"And if you lose?" asked Anne, Javier thought for a minute as everyone there looked at him. He wasn't sure and he was afraid that he would actually have to divorce Blaire, he couldn't imagine not being able to see Blaire's face anymore or losing their child.

"I have to raise the stakes even further, I have to do it." Javier finally resolved as he tightened his grip on Blaire. He tore his gaze away from Blaire's face and looked back at his mother and sister-in-law.

"If I lose, I will let Blaire marry Mr. Albert." Blaire widened his eyes in surprise at the bet Javier was making again.

"Jav, what do you mean? I don't want to marry him!”

"And you have to be the best man for their wedding, after which you have to disappear from Blaire's life forever. That's my wish," Anne continued. Hearing that, Javier was very reluctant, but for the sake of the plan, he nodded his head and agreed.

    Her mother and sister-in-law had left an hour later, and Javier, who had just dropped them off at the front of the house, had been detained by Blaire. The expression on his wife's face had been worried since their conversation."What's wrong, Blaire? What are you thinking?" Javier asked. Blaire lifted his head and looked at Javier."Why are you so sure of what you're saying? Aren't you afraid of losing me, Jav?" Javier smiled and realized his wife's anxiety."Of course I don't want to lose you...""Then why did you dare to make that bet with my family? You even agreed to let me marry Mr. Albert," Blaire cut him off, seeing that he was really scared that it would happen."Blaire, I did all of this for you. You just have to trust me and see what happens." This was the second time Javier had to calm Blaire down like this and he could only continue to make Blaire believe him about his plan."Okay..." Blaire sighed and nodded his head. Javier looked at the clock on his hand, and he had som

    Jay left Javier's room after receiving orders, he went down to the lobby and saw that Albert was still waiting with an annoyed look on his face. Albert immediately got up from his seat when he saw Jay's arrival."What took you so long? I've been waiting for this!" he shouted angrily as he kept waiting for almost half an hour to meet Jay."I'm sorry, sir. Our new CEO just arrived earlier so I had to meet him first." Jay's words made Albert furrow his brow in confusion."If he just arrived, that means he came at the same time as me. But I didn't see him..." he muttered to himself, he only met Javier earlier and he never thought that Javier was the new CEO of the company."Then let me meet your new CEO, I'll talk about the offer. Hurry up and take me to his office!" She asked haughtily but Jay didn't follow her request."I'm sorry, but about the offer we've already discussed it with the other bosses and it's confidential," Jay replied and Albert just chuckled."I will make you a big prof

    "Wait a minute, that must be a misunderstanding..." Albert continued to deny the latest news even though he knew what was really going on. However, he still didn't want to lose the Watsons' trust in him."What's the misunderstanding? It was announced directly by a representative of the Ford Group!" shouted Anne, the middle-aged woman looking absolutely furious."Mom, calm down." Blaire who saw it all tried to calm things down, she approached her mother but her mother immediately brushed Blaire's hand away."Why is it that none of my plans ever work out? Blaire, you've made my life complicated and now you." Anne gave Albert a contemptuous look, very different from the look she usually gave Albert. It made Albert upset, he didn't like being treated this low by Anne."I'm doing everything I can but I'm working with a loser like you," Anne insinuated Albert again."Loser? Hey, watch your mouth! If I hadn't helped you all this time, you wouldn't have gotten anything." Irritated, Albert sho

    Javier was still in his room which looked very large and luxurious, he continued to look around in awe. Javier never thought that he could have a room like this all to himself. It seemed impossible for someone like him, and now he could be the new CEO of the biggest company in his country."If Blaire knew this, she would be very happy. Blaire also doesn't have to worry about my work now, she just needs to focus on her pregnancy," Javier said to himself with a smile that had been widening ever since."And her family won't be able to insult me anymore, but... I can't tell them now. I have to keep it a secret for a while." Javier nodded his head, agreeing with her thoughts."If the Watsons knew, they certainly wouldn't believe it or they would take advantage of this. After all the bad things they've done to me and Blaire, I don't want to be used by them," Javier said again."And I won't let anyone separate me from Blaire." That was Javier's goal, he didn't want to be separated from Blair

    "Hello, Blaire? What's up, are you okay?" asked Javier when he picked up the phone from his wife. He knew that Blaire was at the Watsons' house so he was a little worried about his wife."Jav, I'm fine. But I have some news," Blaire replied in a hushed voice. She was in the bathroom avoiding her family.Hearing that, Javier knew what news Blaire was going to tell him. He knew that this news was about Albert and his family, Javier secretly smiled, he could guess that the Watsons were now confused because their plans were not going smoothly."Is this about Mr. Albert?" Blaire was surprised that Javier already knew."That's right! How did you know?" Hearing Blaire's question, Javier realized that he should have pretended not to know. Blaire must be suspicious but Javier tried to think of a plausible answer to his wife's question."About that... you know I work at Ford Group now, right? So I know about the news." Javier felt like letting out a sigh of relief that he'd managed to come up w

    "I should have married you off to a rich man quickly before you fell into Javier's trap and married him," her mother said while massaging her head and still talking about Blaire."You should have married a rich man who would have helped our company get ahead in the business world! Our family has hit rock bottom since you married Javier." Her mother raised her tone as if blaming Blaire for everything that happened. Blaire sighed, they were back to making her feel cornered here."Mom, stop it," Blaire retorted. She no longer felt angry, she felt sad."I won't stop until you stop destroying our family like this." Her mom snorted and seemed unconcerned even though Blaire looked sad."Don't you see your sisters and cousins marrying rich men? Aren't you ashamed, Blaire?" her mother asked and Bella who was sitting next to her mother was already smiling proudly."Why should I be ashamed?" Blaire replied with another question."Of course because you married a poor man! Unlike me who married a r

    Javier woke up to find Blaire still beside him. He knew that his wife was tired, so Javier didn't wake her up because this was something that rarely happened, as Blaire usually woke up earlier than him."She must be tired after being at the Watsons' house all day yesterday," Javier muttered as he stroked his wife's hair and smiled."I'll let her sleep a little longer." Slowly, Javier removed his hand from Blaire's head and got out of bed. Just as he was about to walk away, his cell phone suddenly rang and woke Blaire from his slumber."Javier, are you awake?" asked Blaire, making Javier immediately look at his wife."Yes, I just woke up. The phone must have woken you up, you can go back to sleep if you want." But Blaire shook her head because it was already noon and she hadn't made breakfast for herself and Javier."Go back to sleep, Blaire. I'm off today so you don't have to get up and make me breakfast," Javier said as if he could read Blaire's mind, he picked up his cell phone whic

Everyone was busy talking to each other, but when they heard the sound of footsteps coming into the dining room and saw Blaire's arrival with Javier, they instantly fell silent.Their stares were still the same, Javier knew that they didn't like him being here. But for his wife's sake, Javier smiled and was polite to them."What are you two doing here? How shameless..." Bella quipped as she ate her food. Everyone else continued eating their lunch, as if agreeing with what Bella said. "Hello good afternoon, mom and dad. We must have interrupted your lunch," Javier said, still trying to be friendly to them."That you already know.

    "Yes, she's still here. But you can't see her," Anne said, surprising Javier. Of course, he was immediately angry because his mother-in-law suddenly wouldn't let him meet his own wife. Although Blaire was her daughter, they had no right to forbid Blaire and Javier from meeting."What do you mean, mom? Why can't I see her?" asked Javier, not understanding and Anne casually shrugged her shoulders as she continued to look at Javier sarcastically."You should realize the reason why I won't let you meet Blaire. I knew from the beginning that I shouldn't have allowed you two to get married, you're a sneaky guy who only took advantage of Blaire coming from a rich family and now that Blaire is willing to live in poverty with you, you're looking for another woman from another rich family, right?" Javier couldn't understand what Anne was talking about. He didn't think he had made a mistake and now suddenly Anne was saying something about Javier looking for another rich family woman."Wait... I

Of course he did all this for Blaire's sake, he knew that something had happened to his wife because until now Blaire hadn't returned his messages and that made Javier even more worried."Sir, do I need to send someone to go to the Watsons' house and check on her?" Jay asked when they had just taken their seats on the plane. It was because Javier looked very worried and Jay felt that he had to calm his boss down."No, there's no need," Javier replied with a sigh. He couldn't possibly agree to what Jay had said earlier because it would be very risky. The Watsons would be suspicious of him and there was no way he would have anyone come check on Blaire in the middle of the night like this.Jay finally just nodded his head and sat on the chair next to Javier. "When I arrive, I'll go straight to the Watsons' house. Is it okay if I take your car

She intended to catch Javier's attention and talk to him after their meeting was over, she was so happy that she could finally have dinner alone with Javier. But, unfortunately Javier didn't seem to care. He was just busy with his food and seemed to be daydreaming."Did you like the food too, sir?" asked Chloe, suddenly realizing that Javier wasn't answering her at all. She looked up and saw that he was just daydreaming. The happy expression on her face instantly changed, she rolled her eyes in annoyance that Javier wasn't paying attention to her at all."He must be thinking about his pathetic wife, why would he call her at a time like this?" Chloe grumbled. Even though this is her chance to get close to Javier, Javier's wife makes Javier's mood bad and Chloe's plan must fail."Sir," Chloe called again until Javier finally

I know you're not okay that's why you called Mr. Jay, right?""Don't lie to me, something must have happened to you, right? I'm going home now then." Javier intended to end his meeting with Chloe and look for a flight right now."No, don't just leave your job, Jav. I-I'm totally fine," Blaire replied immediately in reply to Javier's words because she was afraid that Javier was really going home just because something happened to Blaire.Javier sighed, he knew that Blaire was lying just because he didn't want Javier to go home early and leave his job. "Blaire, don't lie.""I'm not lying, I just wanted to tell you that I'm kind o

And Jay, who was standing in the corner of the room, suddenly felt that the cell phone in his pants pocket was vibrating.

    "What's wrong, Mr. Andrew?" Now Bella also got up from her seat and walked over to Andrew who was already sitting next to Blaire who was still confused. Anne and Bella were curious to see what Andrew would show Blaire. And Andrew immediately opened the message Ben had sent and checked the photo. He had sent Ben the money after forcing his father to give him the money and stop blocking his credit card at midnight and finally his father gave in."Look, I got that picture from my friend who went to the Smith's company party!" Andrew said pretending to be shocked in front of Blaire even though he was very happy to see the picture Ben sent him. He thought his plan wouldn't go his way but he was wrong, he actually got what he wanted and his plan went smoothly."Oh my God! That's really Javier. He looks different there," Bella replied gaping in surprise, but she also felt there was something different about Javier's appearance.

However, even though he didn't like her, Javier still had to greet her in a friendly manner. Because it looked like Chloe was going to replace Chris at this meeting."Have you been waiting for me for long? I'm sorry there was a lot of traffic on the way because it's dinner time," Chloe explained, smiling at Javier and feeling confident because she had dressed up very beautifully before leaving here. She really hopes that Javier will fall in love with her, and Chloe doesn't care about Javier's married status."No, I just came too," Javier replied. Seeing Chloe already walking towards the dining table, Jay immediately pulled out a chair for Chloe and Chloe immediately sat there. Chloe had expected Javier

Chris rolled his eyes in annoyance that Chloe had caused him enough trouble tonight."What is it again, Chloe? Can't you just not bother me tonight? You already bothered Mr. Javier and embarrassed me," her father complained but Chloe pouted and put on a resentful expression because her father didn't want to listen to her request first. "Dad!

Chris released Chloe's grip on his hand with some force."Dad!" called Chloe again she trie
