Citra led the man to enter the office with her.Specifically, towards Ethan and Citra's workspace.Several muscular bodyguards were stopped by the security guards at the office, and the entrance gate was tightly closed by the guards as per Citra's orders.The woman still wasn't sure what motives were behind the man being chased like that, and Nike's breathing could be heard panting."Excuse me, Miss, Sir. Here's some water," said the office cleaning service to both of them.Citra, who was nearby, immediately took the glass of water and gave it to Nike, who still seemed to be trying to regain his composure."Take this. Drink it. Maybe you'll feel much better," Citra said, offering the glass to Nike.The man nodded, accepting the glass of water and drinking it until it was almost empty.Nike wiped the wet corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, ignoring the tissue that was clearly in front of him."What's wrong? What actually happened? How did it come to this?" asked Citra as she

"There's a cafe nearby. It might be more comfortable if we go there. You probably haven't had lunch yet, right?" Ethan asked, looking at the man.For the first time, Ethan initiated conversation with him.Nike raised his face, looking intently at Ethan. "Ethan's right. We'd better discuss all this at the cafe. A cup of americano might make you feel better," Citra chimed in, supporting Ethan's argument.With two voices in agreement, Nike had no other choice. He nodded, smiling at both of them."Alright. I'll follow you," Nike replied.Just as they were about to get up, Nike suddenly spoke again, bringing everyone's focus back to him."Wait," Nike said softly.Both Ethan and Citra gave him ambiguous looks."What is it?" Citra asked, looking at him.Nike then took out the flash drive containing copies of important evidence and looked at both of them."What about this evidence? Sorry, I almost forgot to give it to you. Can you keep this safe?" Nike asked, looking at both of them.Citra qu

"Just a moment!" Amel yelled from inside.She hurried to open her apartment door. From the last chat she received, Amel could already guess who was behind that door.With a smile spreading across her lips, Amel greeted warmly."You're already... Citra? Ethan?"Amel quickly corrected herself, her brow furrowing as she found two figures she hadn't expected.Citra, hearing the woman's words, immediately understood where the girl's thoughts were heading.A question crossed Citra's mind: had this girl been meeting frequently with the man she encountered late that night?Meanwhile, Ethan's brow furrowed when he heard the word "you" instead of "sis" or "bro" directed at them, confused by the girl."You?" Ethan repeated, making Amel feel the air around her thinning.Truly, she hadn't prepared any excuse if she found herself in this position.Clearly, it was still afternoon; these two should not have returned yet. As Amel remembered, they always came home late at night, not like this."It's ok

As the night grew later, the three happy individuals decided to head home to their apartment. They had bought many items during their shopping trip that day.Once inside the car, Amel's face was clearly radiant, delighted to have experienced so much happiness."Thank you, both of you," Amel said sincerely. "You two work so well together to make me happy. Thanks to you, I never feel lonely anymore."The two people sitting in front smiled as well, sharing in the girl's joy."That's right, Amel. From now on, you shouldn't be sad anymore. Let's embrace our new life together," Ethan said, glancing briefly at his sister.Citra, also feeling happy, flashed a sweet smile without saying anything, conveying her shared happiness through the curve of her lips."Brother..." Amel called out to Ethan."Yes, Amel? What is it?" Ethan asked.Amel then reached out, hugging the man by wrapping her arms around his neck. After a moment, she slowly released the embrace."Ethan, you have to promise me someth

A short while ago...Milena, who had just finished drying her hair, heard someone knocking at her apartment door. She frowned, not expecting any visitors.Milena walked to answer the door."Yes, who is it?" Milena asked as she greeted her visitor.Milena squinted when she saw who was standing before her."You? Ma..." Milena paused, trying to recall the name. "Martin, lovely lady," the man replied. It was indeed Martin.Milena snapped her fingers, finally remembering his name clearly."Yes. Sorry it took me a moment - our names are similar, I should have remembered yours more quickly," Milena said politely.Martin smiled, holding a gift bag in his hand."Oh! I almost forgot. Please come in, excuse the mess," Milena said, inviting him inside.Martin shook his head and entered the apartment, walking beside her."Have you lived here long?" Martin asked, looking around the apartment.Milena nodded in response. She then invited Martin to sit on the sofa."I can only afford to rent this apar

The next day, Citra and Ethan dropped Amel off at her campus.To make her happy, they were willing to be late for work.It didn't matter - they'd do anything to make Amel happy."Thank you guys! You're going to be late because of me. But really, thank you so much. I love you both," said Amel, hugging them as they looked back from the front seats.When it was time to part, Citra and Ethan just said goodbye from inside the car.They waved to Amel, gesturing for her to stay motivated."Call me when it's time to go home," Ethan said before leaving.Amel shook her head and told Ethan to just order her an online taxi. She didn't want to trouble him, especially during his work hours.After that brief conversation, Amel entered her campus.The smile never left her face as she looked around the campus, amazed that she would be studying there.Even now, Amel sometimes thought this was all just a dream or illusion in her head.She still couldn't believe she'd become a student at this big, fancy

Ethan opened the door to his and Citra's office, finding the woman's face looking blank, as if she was carrying a heavy burden in her mind.Luckily, he had returned with two cups of coffee in his hands. He approached Citra, offering one cup to her."To help you feel fresher. What are you thinking about?" Ethan asked, taking a seat right in front of the woman's desk.He then sipped his coffee while looking intently at Citra, waiting for her to speak up again."It's nothing. I'm just thinking about what Nike said that time. Is it true that Richard is planning something against my company?" Citra pondered.Honestly, this had been bothering her thoughts. Especially since that business was the only thing Citra owned.Although Citra clearly no longer managed the company, she secretly still kept an eye on it.She also didn't hesitate to send messages to Nike, providing solutions so that her company wouldn't fall into the abyss of defeat due to the competition."If he's really doing that, you

Time flew by so quickly without notice.Citra could hardly remember when she last thought about her parents. Her new life with Ethan made her much happier.Especially with Amel, who always showered Citra with affection, even accepting her into her life from their very first meeting."Good morning, Citra!" Amel greeted the woman with a smile.Noticing Amel's face seemed to be hiding something, Citra narrowed her eyes, looking closely at the girl."Alright. What can I help you with this time? You must have a college assignment, right?" Citra asked, able to guess what was on the girl's mind.Amel chuckled, showing her neat row of white teeth to the woman."Yes, Citra. I'm really struggling. I've been trying to answer this material but still don't understand it. It's the weekend, which should be your rest time. But just this once. Please help me. I don't understand this material at all."Amel clasped her hands together, begging Citra to be her private tutor.Seeing the girl's serious face

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.
