An hour passed. Kenric was currently in White's apartment. He had just swallowed the antidote from White and then returned to sit on the sofa with Naomi and White."If the drug he was given was just an ordinary drug, my offeror would have been able to offer it without any side effects. I'm sure what he gave wasn't an ordinary stimulant," White said while looking at Naomi with a serious expression."The person responsible for giving him the drug was Harold's confidant. I'm sure he changed the drink Jerry brought or added to the dosage," Naomi said.White nodded several times. "That means he's one of the lucky ones," he said, pointing at Kenric but keeping his eyes on Naomi."Don't talk nonsense," Kenric snapped, swatting away White's index finger that was pointing at him. "If you didn't make up stories about being out of town and stuff, then none of that would have happened," snapped Kenric, who was very upset to find out that White was actually in his apartment.Yes, after Naomi helpe
After driving for a long time, Kenric finally arrived at Brayen's house. He parked the car casually, as he should, then stepped inside the luxurious house."Where's papa?" Kenric asked one of the servants he met as he stepped into the mansion."The great master is in the study, Young Master," the servant replied politely."Where's Sam, then? I don't see him in the courtyard," asked Kenric as he turned towards the entrance of the house.The servant immediately bowed his head. "That...""What's that?""There were some people who were fired and some who were transferred a few days ago," the waitress replied while wringing the hem of her clothes."Did Aunt Maria leave too?" Kenric asked hurriedly."Yes, Young Master.""Where did she go?""Madam sent Aunt Maria to help out at the Brayen family orphanage," the maid replied as she continued to bow her head."Damn it," Kenric growled, clenching his fists tightly.Then Kenric motioned for the servant to leave his presence.After that, Kenric w
The next day As planned by Mr. Brayen, Kenric started his new position today, replacing Harold. He thought there would be a lot of drama in the office this morning, but it all went very smoothly."Is something wrong?" Kenric muttered, feeling that today was too calm. After all, he always believed that calm waters would bring surprising waves.Kenric began his work. He carefully read through all the files on the desk until Naomi (who, of course, was now his secretary) came into the room with a new file in her hand."Good morning, Mr. Kenric." Naomi greeted her kindly as she passed through the door."Don't show that kind of attitude in front of me," Kenric replied without looking at Naomi.Naomi let out a long breath. "I currently feel cheated," she said as she placed the new file on Kenric's desk."What makes you feel cheated?" asked Kenric, who continued to stare at the file on his desk."Of course it's because you're here now, but I haven't been able to touch a single person in your
One day passed. Kenric, who had finished his work, returned to Mr. Dipo's residence. When he had just entered the living room area, he saw Alex walking towards him quickly."What's wrong?" asked Kenric while looking at Alex, who was currently standing in front of him."The great master is waiting for you in the reading room," Alex replied, nodding his head.After that, Kenric and Alex walked hand in hand towards the reading room on the second floor of the mansion."What happened?" asked Kenric after walking with Alex for a while."This afternoon, the great master invited the family lawyer to come here," Alex replied."What did you invite him for?" asked Kenric, who was curious because Mr. Dipo had not said anything about matters related to family assets or the like."I can't tell you, Young Master. It's better for you to ask the Great Master yourself," Alex replied calmly as he pressed the elevator button that would take them both to the second floor.'What else do you want to do? Doe
At Naomi's house. Naomi was currently sitting on one of the chairs in the dining room. She was staring at all the dishes in front of her with a lazy expression."Hah..." sighed Naomi as she looked at all the food and then at the empty chairs around her."If it continues like this, I'd better eat outside," muttered Naomi, who had no appetite because there was no one around."Miss!" called the only female servant in the house.Naomi immediately turned to the middle-aged woman, who was currently running a little into the dining room."What's wrong?" asked Naomi while frowning at the panicked expression on the face of Zelda, the name of the maid."Miss, there are some people breaking into this house," said Zelda when she arrived near Naomi's dining chair.Before Naomi had time to think, suddenly four men entered the dining room. Of course, Naomi immediately got up from her chair when she saw that."Is this you guys again?" Naomi said this because she recognized the four men who had just e
After finishing cleaning their clothes, Naomi and Kenric went together to the dining room. Naomi chose to sit next to Kenric so as not to have to interact much with Mr. Dipo."I am very happy that a young woman like you has the free time to make me a meal like this," said Mr. Dipo while looking at Naomi, who was currently smiling at him."Of course, Great Master. Please forgive me because I've been very busy recently, so I haven't had time to keep my promise to you," Naomi said as she continued to try to show her fake smile."It's okay; you've already kept your promise today, so you don't need to think about this anymore," Mr. Dipo said with a friendly smile.A moment later, Mr. Dipo gave the signal for the dinner to begin. A waiter brought out the rice and some of Mr. Dipo's appetizing dishes.Meanwhile, Naomi was taking a bit of rice while glancing at Mr. Dipo, who seemed to really like his homemade food. 'Is it really that good?' thought Naomi, who felt that her cooking was indeed
In the evening. At this time, Naomi, who had just finished changing her clothes, casually laid her body on the bed. After rolling over several times, Naomi finally picked up the cell phone that she had thrown carelessly on the bed. But when she just unlocked her cell phone, Naomi was surprised by the notification of dozens of missed calls and several messages."Why is she calling me this much?" Naomi muttered when she saw that dozens of missed calls came from one number, namely Cristy's number.Then Naomi switched to opening a message from Cristy. "Check the hottest news," Naomi said, reading a message from Cristy.A moment later, Naomi did as Cristy said."Wow," Naomi said when she saw that today's trending topic was the video in the cafeteria this afternoon. She really didn't expect that there would be people who dared to video the incident, even to the point of spreading the video.Naomi then looked at the comments under the video. Many suspected that Mrs. Reya had actually harmed
After talking with Baka for a long time, Naomi and Kenric finally left the room as per the rules in the hospital because it was time to rest for all patients in the hospital."It looks like you're very close to Baka," asked Naomi while walking hand in hand with Kenric."Of course, he's the one who saved me. If he hadn't saved me back then, I would have died in the ravine," Kenric replied while massaging his sore nape."But you guys haven't known each other for long; why do you trust him so much?" asked Naomi, who was naturally very curious because Kenric was not the naive type.A faint smile appeared on Kenric's lips. "Does it take a long time to trust people?"Naomi played her lips right and left. "You are not the naive type of man, Young Master Kenric," she said."Do you think believing in others quickly is something naive? Then you also fall into the category of naive people, don't you?""Me?" Naomi pointed at her own face."Yes, didn't you also trust me very quickly?" Kenric turne
