The System of Power is Money Chapter 227
Amel's condition, still deep in guilt, made her unable to think clearly anymore.She became more sensitive and couldn't hear words like what Professor Malik had said at all.A long sigh escaped Amel's mouth. To hell with all the strange looks people would give her as she left Professor Malik's room with swollen eyes still streaming tears.She also didn't care if her course grade with Professor Malik would be reduced or whatever else according to that man's policies.It was clear how Professor Malik immediately quickened his pace, leaving behind all the work he should have been doing to chase after that woman.For some reason, Professor Malik felt he didn't want there to be any distance between himself and Amel.It didn't matter if at that moment, he would become the center of attention of passersby because he was chasing Amel.The two of them briefly looked like a couple where one was sulking while the other, the male figure, was trying to chase, persuade, and coax her.Professor Mali

Citra closed her eyes, only able to lament her fate that now forced her to face a situation she herself didn't understand how it came to be.A long sigh escaped her lips, her gaze completely fixed on the car's side window, which she found far more interesting than anything else at that moment.Realizing what the woman was doing suddenly made Nike feel certain that something must have clearly happened to her.He knew that something bad must have occurred to her."You still don't want to tell me anything, Citra?" Nike asked, his tone of voice clearly interrogating Citra, questioning what was making the woman daydream and fall silent like this.A long sigh escaped the woman's lips; she didn't want to say or tell the man anything at all right now.For some reason, Citra just wanted to stay quiet and cover up everything that had happened."Let's just go back to my place, okay?" Nike said, once again receiving a nod from the woman.It was clear how Nike could only resign himself at that mom

Citra opened her eyes, then looked around with an expression as if she came from another world.She seemed to just remember what had happened then."Just a dream," Citra muttered in her heart.Citra had gotten a nightmare at that time, she really didn't expect that she would be carried away by such a dream.How could she not? Citra had unintentionally dreamed about herself and Martin standing at the wedding altar.She felt that she had become a bride wearing a wedding dress that she had designed herself.No! Citra would never make that dream come true.It would all feel very painful when it turned out that Martin was the one who got the wedding dress with the wedding gown design made by Citra.Knock! Knock!The sound of knocking on her bedroom door made Citra suddenly look over there."Citra? Are you awake? It's quite late in the afternoon and almost evening. Are you still going to stay inside? You haven't eaten your food since earlier. You probably haven't eaten anything since this m

Ethan didn't know what else he could do now. Everything felt heavy and difficult for him to understand.The shadow of the growing misunderstanding between himself and Citra couldn't escape his mind at all now."I want to explain everything to her. But... is there still time? How can I even meet with her? Right now, I can't contact her at all anymore. I don't know where she is, and I don't know how to reach her again," Ethan muttered in his heart.Currently, Ethan was back at his office.He worked on all his office tasks more quickly, not wanting the problems that kept emerging in his mind and life to grow and hinder his work.No wonder he decided to ignore it temporarily, trying as much as possible not to think about what was happening in his life."Even if everything becomes clearer and that woman knows I don't have any relationship with Mahira, it won't change the reality and fate that she'll still be with Martin, right? What am I really hoping for? It seems nothing will change even

Ethan parked his car in his apartment's parking area."Hello, sir! By the way, Amel will probably be home a bit late tonight. Please tell her I'm attending a dinner with Mr. Leo. I've sent her a message, but her phone seems to be off again. I'm worried she won't be able to read my message and might look for me. So please relay this to Amel, sir," Ethan instructed the security guard at his apartment, wanting to avoid any complications later.He didn't want to leave any room for worry in Amel's mind.If she knew where Ethan had gone, she would surely feel comfortable going straight to rest when she arrived home later."Yes, sir. I'll definitely pass this on to Miss Amel."Ethan nodded; the middle-aged guard had always been reliable.Not once had the guard disappointed Ethan whenever he left messages with him.A long sigh escaped his lips as he began walking through the lonely apartment corridor once again.Faintly, the echoes of laughter he used to hear accompanying his steps seemed to

Amel furrowed her brow, feeling very unfamiliar with the road they were traveling on again.This was the second time the woman was taken away by Professor Malik, due to Amel feeling irritated with her bad mood.A long sigh escaped Amel's mouth, clearly showing how the woman was about to give up and wanted to ask Professor Malik where they were at that moment.However, the woman had no other choice now.She could only resign herself now.Her energy felt completely drained if she had to respond to that man.It was clear how the day was already turning to late afternoon and could be said to be approaching evening.Who knows how many hours Amel had been sitting in that car with her gaze never shifting from her sharp eyes.She was still staring out the side window that she had intentionally left open."We'll be there soon," said Professor Malik, which made the woman turn to look intently at Amel.He thought that the woman's anger towards him would have started to subside, considering how l

"Just wait until sunset appears. I'll be busy with that woman first. You just get everything ready. Remember, don't let anyone else try to enter this area I've reserved," Professor Malik said firmly to the man.He just nodded, following Professor Malik's instructions.Once Professor Malik made sure that person had left, leaving only himself and Amel, he immediately put both hands in his pockets.He would make sure that woman would let go of her anger towards Professor Malik, since he had brought Amel to a place she had surely never visited before."Sometimes, if someone needs to scream to release everything they're feeling... well, you could say that's okay. You can try it, Amel, because no one will hear you in this place except me and the few people who are supposed to be here."While Amel was focused and lost in thought staring at the rolling ocean waves, a voice suddenly interrupted her concentration."I don't need to scream right now. This place would be too noisy and disturb the

Ethan had now arrived at Leo's residence, where the man was clearly visible waiting on the porch, anticipating Ethan's arrival.A long sigh escaped from Ethan's mouth as he gathered his resolve to meet Leo, who was obviously waiting for him up front.A sweet smile appeared perfectly at the corner of Leo's lips; the man looked extremely happy right now.Meanwhile, Ethan only returned that wide smile with a modest one, not appearing as excited as Leo was showing.In his hands was a fruit basket that he had bought earlier to give to Leo."Finally, you've arrived, Mr. Ethan. Oh my! What's this you've brought? I invited you here for dinner, yet you bring such a gift."Ethan smiled thinly, then shook his head indicating that he didn't mind at all."It's fine, Mr. Leo. Actually, I would feel uncomfortable if I came empty-handed," said Ethan, making the man just nod again.He then made space for Ethan, clearly giving way for the man to enter his house."Please come in, Mr. Ethan. By the way,

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
Chapter 302
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,
Chapter 301
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
Chapter 298
"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.
