Citra let out a long sigh, then turned her gaze away. Suddenly, she found Martin standing right in front of her."Remember! Don't mess with me. Or you'll lose everything," Martin threatened the woman.Citra felt like she wanted to counterattack the man.However, all of that turned out to be something Citra could only do in her imagination.In reality, the man did not let Citra succeed in doing what she intended to do.It was clear how Martin did not want Citra to resist him like what had happened back then."I'm also not interested in fighting someone like you," said Citra, making Martin smile crookedly. He understood how the woman was trying to hold back her feelings.But at least now Martin was much luckier because the woman could not put up any resistance at all.This was clear from what happened, where Citra could only remain silent, unlike usual when she would hit Martin with various sharp remarks."I told you, you won't be able to say anything anymore now. All of this is much b

Citra stared at the woman who had caught her. She struggled to swallow her saliva as she saw Mrs. Merry now looking at her with a blank expression."Were you trying to contact someone?" asked Mrs. Merry, making Citra try to think of what she should say to the middle-aged woman.Although Mrs. Merry seemed very nice to her now, quite different from the woman a while ago.However, Citra would not tell her about her closeness with Ethan."Uh... yes... I was trying to contact Nike. I... think I want to stay at her apartment today. I need a change of scenery," said Citra, making the woman nod her head.Although there was a strange feeling because the woman's face looked tense, Mrs. Merry eventually ignored it."If there's anything bothering you, just tell Mom everything, okay? Mom also didn't know anything about this rushed wedding. Mom was also shocked to hear that they had prepared this event," said Mrs. Merry, making the woman nod her head.She didn't mind at all what was happening at th

Mahira now seemed to be acting more normally when with that woman."You shouldn't have gone to such extremes, Leona. No matter what, if God doesn't destine him for you, you can't force that fate. Look at what happened with my relationship with that jerk," Mahira said, using her own experience as an example."You don't need to think about it anymore. Besides, everything has already happened. The most important thing is that my condition has improved now, right?"Leona assured Mahira that she was truly fine now.A long sigh escaped her mouth, then she shifted her gaze to look straight at Mahira."Are you worried about me? Aww... how romantic!" Leona's teasing was intentional to break the tense atmosphere between them.Laughter could now be heard quite loudly, clearly indicating how both of them were now doing better."When are you going to introduce me to the guy who made you able to move on so quickly, hm? Oh yeah, you still owe me a story. You haven't told me about your impressions fr

"Bro! Ethan!" Amel exclaimed, feeling annoyed because she was being continuously ignored by that man.The woman appeared to be pouting, indicating how upset she was over what Ethan was doing.Ethan seemed not to hear her at all. Even though Amel had clearly tried to talk to him at that time.However, not once did the man want to listen to her. She couldn't understand what was happening with Ethan."Bro! Ethan, are you hearing what I'm saying?" asked Amel, making the man take a deep breath.Amel was seen narrowing her eyes, staring intently at the man.Ethan turned for a moment, looking at his sister with a tired expression."I'm exhausted, Amel. I hope you won't talk about things like this right now. I hope you understand what I mean at this moment," said Ethan, making Amel promptly shut her mouth.Indeed, Amel shouldn't have asked the man any further because she should just let everything become a matter between Ethan and Citra alone.Amel fell completely silent, turning her gaze tow

Citra stepped towards the balcony of her room.Her eyes began to close, letting all the emotions enveloping her disappear and leave her.Somehow, the days Citra had been going through lately always felt heavy. She couldn't imagine all the bad things happening in her life.Citra tried to stay calm, but tears that understood how she felt and how broken she was made Citra unable to move.She let all her feelings melt with everything, even the falling raindrops seemed to clearly understand how miserable the woman was at that moment."Why, God? Does everything have to be this hard? What sin have I committed against you all this time? Why do you give such a painful test like this?" Citra asked, feeling sad about the fate she was currently facing.The woman didn't understand what to do anymore.Click!Faintly in her sense of hearing, she could clearly hear someone approaching her.Citra no longer cared. Whoever it was, they wouldn't improve her chaotic condition at that time.Let that person

"Is there nothing left behind?" asked Leo while looking intently at his niece.The woman with a sweet smile at the corner of her lips felt so happy because this afternoon she had been allowed to go home by the doctor who had been treating her while she was in the hospital."Ready to return home, hm?" asked the Uncle, which made Leona nod her head without hesitation.Of course, she was even impatient to go to the house that was actually much more calming compared to the hospital that was only filled with the smell of medicines.A rather long sigh came out of the man's mouth; he felt so happy when he knew his niece also felt much happier now."Thank you, Mr. Ethan. All this time, you have taken care of me very well. I don't know how else I can repay all your kindness. I hope you didn't do all this reluctantly," said Leona, who then looked intently at Ethan.The man then shook his head; of course, he would deny the truth of what Leona said, because actually, he did all this only because

"Are you running away?" asked Ethan, starting the conversation between them.Lately, they hadn't communicated online at all, let alone met in person. Ethan hadn't expected that God would write such a fate for him and Citra.It was visible how the woman also felt awkward, stretching out her hand, scratching the back of her neck which wasn't itchy at all.She looked at Ethan intently, flashing a smile that was difficult to decipher the meaning behind."Yeah... something like that. I just don't like it when I go out and have to be watched and controlled by him. So, I tried to escape from Martin's men, but they ended up threatening to do something bad to me, as you saw earlier. I really hate them all," muttered Citra, making Ethan sigh.That woman's behavior was something else these days."Hm... wouldn't it be better if you just drop me off here? I'm afraid... those people will report to Martin, and you'll end up getting dragged into this too," Citra said again, with worry evident in her

Professor Malik appeared to be trying to calm the anger of the woman with him.Amel's face was filled with a sour expression, indicating how the woman did not accept what the man in front of her had done.She stared at the man sharply, tears slowly starting to fall from the corners of her eyes.With difficulty, the woman tried to swallow her saliva, but it was clear that the man would not change his decision at all.Professor Malik seemed not to care about the expression Amel was clearly showing at that moment."I understand how you feel about not agreeing to come here, Amel. However, I want you to meet Richard first. He asked me to bring you with him. I don't have any other choice now. He threatened me," said Professor Malik, who would clearly obey what Richard had asked.That man was his brother. No matter how bad a sibling might be, of course, no one would fulfill that sibling's wishes except their own blood relative."So? Do you have to obey him and trap me here? You've really los

As promised to the woman, Ethan decided to go to Citra's house and talk to her parents.His hand, which was already holding several plastic bags filled with fruits, was immediately taken over by a household assistant when the man arrived at Citra's house. Citra, who was at the top of the stairs, immediately descended it, smiling when she saw that he was already at her house. This was something she had been waiting for, she was really happy that the person she loved would express his desire to marry her to her parents. "Your parents are there, right Citra?" Asked Etha after the two of them decided to sit on a fairly soft sofa in the living room.Citra wanted to answer, but suddenly from the other direction came the voice of Citra's father. "We're here, Ethan." Ethan turned his head towards our parents who were currently walking towards the two of them and decided to sit on the opposite sofa. Suddenly, the man's heart was unsafe in the presence of Citra's parents, as if he really fel

After their romantic dinner, Ethan drove slowly towards Citra's house. But before he actually left he turned to Amel who was still on the terrace of the restaurant. "Come on Amel, let's go home together," said Ethan who couldn't possibly leave his sister alone at the restaurant.Amel smiled, of course she couldn't possibly interfere with the two of them being together. She then shook her head and said, "Don't worry, Ethan, I'll go with lecturer Malik. In a few minutes he will come to pick me up."Hearing the words from Amel made Ethan nod his head, he then decided to get into Citra's car, considering that Citra brought a car and there was no way if he let her drive alone. He then got into the car after making sure Citra was in the car. He then began to drive the car through the crowded city. While driving, Ethan occasionally turned his head towards Citra, feeling happy that she had accepted his feelings. Even though he had felt that she would not accept his feelings, especially sin

For a long time Ethan waited for Citra's arrival who had yet to show her nose. He really felt worried if she didn't come to see him in the end. Even though he had tried to give his best to her. If she didn't come, what about her? Will he continue to wait like this and not express his feelings? Of course that can't happen. He had to keep expressing his feelings to her and hope that she would come soon and accept his feelings.Amel, who had been beside the man all along, of course knew what the man was worried about. It had been more than 10 minutes since the woman he was waiting for had shown her nose, and he was also afraid that she wouldn't come in the end. But Amel thought that the woman would definitely come, considering that she seemed so worried about her brother's condition and always tried to get close to him. But why she hadn't shown up yet made her feel worried."Why hasn't Citra come yet?" Amel muttered to herself. Her gaze continued to settle on the door of the restaurant,

Tonight as planned, Ethan and Amel went to a restaurant that the man had booked in advance. Of course, this is because he wants to express his feelings to someone so special. That someone, of course, was none other than Citra. Tonight, he was going to express those feelings to her. He had been harboring his feelings for a long time, and it was time for him to express them. He didn't want her to leave him and choose to be with another man who was more serious. He must choose to be serious before someone else is serious to that woman."How is it, Brother Ethan? Are you ready now?"Of course, Amel as the younger sister of the man agreed with her brother's idea. She certainly wanted to see her brother happy together with the woman he loved. Moreover, she was a good woman who never left her brother under any circumstances, and she liked her very much. Besides being kind, she was also beautiful and very smart. There were so many women who envied that woman, and so many men who wanted to mak

After a few days of hospitalization, Ethan decided to go home because he was now in a better condition than before. His gaze then turned towards a woman who was currently standing not far from him. The woman was none other than Citra who was staring at him while wearing a smile. Of course, Citra knew that this time they decided to go home because last night the man said he no longer felt at home in the hospital. Actually, Ethan still had to be treated in order to be really in good condition, but since he felt uncomfortable in the hospital, inevitably, Citra agreed to the man's request and chose to take care of him when at home. At least the man wouldn't feel bored if he was at home."We're going home now, right, Citra?"The man asked again because he was afraid that suddenly a doctor or nurse would try to get in the way. Ethan already felt tired and shouldn't be in a hospital like this which would only make him more tired. Actually, he wasn't doing anything and wasn't really doing muc

Leona left the hospital with blurred eyes. She really felt sad because she got a rejection from the man who was supposed to be hers. How could that man reject her, after so many men wanted to have her and wanted to make her their lover? But what about that man? Yes, not affected by him at all. He should have had the same feelings as other men when he was close to her. But, unfortunately, that man seemed to have no heart.Leona, who continued to walk and saw nothing, suddenly bumped into a man who was just about to enter the hospital. The man was quite surprised when someone suddenly bumped into him. Luckily, he immediately tried to catch Leona who was about to fall or else she would have fallen on the floor."I'm sorry that I didn't see," Leona said, feeling a little guilty for suddenly realizing that she was trying to make a man fall because of her negligence.Without caring about the man, Leona decided to quickly walk away. In fact, she did not heed the man's calls at all. Meanwhile

"Ethan, I have something to say to you, Ethan."After a long period of silence where it was just the two of them, Leona felt that this was her chance to express her feelings for him. After all, how long was she going to keep her feelings bottled up? The man in front of her had to know that she actually had feelings and wanted to be in a relationship. Even though he knew that the man liked Citra, but still, he should at least let him know that he had more feelings for the man and hope that those feelings would be reciprocated by the man.Ethan frowned in confusion, looking suspiciously at the woman in front of him. What was the woman going to ask? That is, what did she want to say? There seemed to be something quite important that the woman wanted to say, but somehow she was not ready to listen to it. However, refusing to listen didn't seem like a good idea, so inevitably she chose to nod her head, letting the woman say everything she wanted to say, even though she didn't like what the

"How are you, Ethan? Are you okay?"Leona asked immediately when she was right inside the man's room. It appeared that the man was currently hospitalized, and he was on a bed with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened to him. Though it was clear that the man had been kidnapped by someone unknown to Leona. She didn't know who had tried to kidnap the man. It seemed like she would ask later after having a short conversation with the man.Ethan smiled as he nodded his head. He knew that Leona had also helped search for him by mobilizing several men, as well as Leo who did not remain silent when he was in danger. The two of them were really instrumental in finding him, making him feel happy to have people close to him who were so kind and willing to look for him when in danger."I'm fine, Leona. Thank you for worrying about me."Leona just nodded her head. The woman decided to put down the fruits she had bought at a shop on the side of the road. She placed it right on the table,

"Where am I?"Ethan's gaze turned right and left, trying to ascertain where he was. Last he remembered, he was in a stuffy warehouse where people were trying to torture him, let alone a fat man who was so creepy. But why was she in a place that was all white, as if it was a hospital? It was because she had come to the hospital before, and had even been a patient. But, how could he be in a hospital like this now? Shouldn't he still be in the warehouse?Those questions kept swirling in his brain until he finally caught the face of someone smiling at him. It was Citra, a woman who was always by his side when he was not well. She smiled as if she was happy to see him awake."Citra, how did I get here? Wasn't I in a warehouse before?" he asked, staring at the beautiful woman whose gaze was currently drawn to him.Citra gave him a smile. She then helped the man to sit up and rested his head right on the back of the bed. "It's a long story, Ethan. But everything is fine now. You're safe now.
