Valerio fell silent again for a moment, but eventually he began to tell everything. Hopefully, by sharing his issues with Christian, it could alleviate some of his troubles.“Earlier ... I unlocked Elvira’s phone, Sir!” Valerio started recounting. He vividly remembered the moment he accessed everything that might contain secrets inside Elvira’s phone, finding them in the unread messages that were probably forgotten to be deleted.“And then?” Christian couldn’t wait for Valerio to continue his story.Valerio took a deep breath.“Initially, I didn’t intend to do it. But seeing Elvira’s strange behavior, I felt she was hiding something!” Valerio continued.Christian listened more intently. He was starting to get intrigued by the story of the man in front of him. He hoped Valerio hadn’t found anything suspicious about what had happened between him and Elvira.“So, did you find something that you think is suspicious?” Christian asked, squinting, trying to find out through Valerio’s gaze.V
“I have to tell Elvira that Valerio knows about the message Tavares sent,” Christian muttered to himself. He looked back to ensure Valerio wasn’t following him. If Valerio found out he was going to Elvira’s room, it could become a problem later on.“Ah, why do these problems keep piling up? The issue with Yve isn’t resolved yet, and now Elvira forgot to delete the message,” Christian grumbled, rubbing his face harshly.After making sure the coast was clear, Christian sneaked into Elvira’s room, hoping she was still awake so they could talk about the problem they were facing.Knock, knock, knock.Christian knocked softly on Elvira’s door. After waiting for a while with no answer, he knocked again.‘Where could she be? Is she already asleep?’ Christian grumbled to himself. He reached for his phone from his pocket, intending to call Elvira. Before he could dial, the door opened.Meanwhile, Elvira, who was playing on her phone, was startled.“Who could it be at this hour?” she wondered a
“I will meet Tavares!” Christian decided. He didn’t want their secret to be exposed.“Sir!” Elvira responded, surprised.“I have to meet him. This problem needs to be resolved immediately!” Christian said again.He was truly anxious. If the video were to spread, other problems would arise. Not only concerning his relationship with Valerio or his marriage to Yve, which would surely be shaken, but beyond that, other issues would emerge. If that happened, his position could be in danger.“Why do you want to meet him?” Elvira asked, curious and scared at the same time.“I will negotiate. By any means necessary, I have to get that video. You will come with me. Take me to meet him!” he continued.“But, Sir, won’t it be suspicious if we go together?” Elvira asked, reasoning. She didn’t want Valerio to become more suspicious later.“It won’t be. I’ll provide a logical reason for us to go together!” Christian reassured Elvira.“Sorry, Sir! But I feel this is very risky. I’m afraid it will beco
Christian stuttered. He was confused about what to say. But his mind quickly raced; he had to make sure Valerio didn’t suspect anything.But his mind went blank; he couldn’t think of a reason to prevent Valerio from misunderstanding.“Thank you again for your help, Mr. Demetri!” Elvira exclaimed. Christian glanced briefly, then shifted slightly to give Elvira space. Thank you for what?“Sweetheart, why are you here? For long?” Elvira asked, feigning surprise towards Valerio.Luckily, she had an idea and took control. She knew Christian must be struggling to find a plausible excuse.“It’s actually me who’s asking. What were you two doing? Why was Mr. Demetri in your room?” Valerio asked suspiciously. His eyes narrowed, seeing his girlfriend with Mr. Demetri in the room last night.“Oh... there was a small mouse inside. I was terribly afraid. As I ran out to ask for help to chase it away, Mr. Demetri happened to pass by. So, I asked for his help!” Elvira replied.It was a plausible excu
“You love Me?” Valerio asked to confirm Elvira’s feelings for him.“Do you still need an answer?” Elvira asked back.“Of course, I want to make sure that your heart and body are only for me.” Valerio saw the glint in Elvira’s eyes which were becoming increasingly passionate. What’s more, his hands were twisting the edge of her chest.Elvira nodded her head. “Really. I really love you.” She doesn’t deny that she really loves Valerio. Even though Mr. Demetri still makes her fly, her heart is still with Valerio.“So, are we going to spend the night until you can’t walk?” Valerio said while squeezing Elvira’s mound.It felt like he hadn’t spent time with Elvira in a long time. And maybe now is the right time, after they were involved in the misunderstanding earlier.Seeing Elvira’s body again made him crazy. Must make the woman unable to wake up tomorrow morning. He will show that he is the best for Elvira, in bed too.“Are you really up to it?” Elvira chuckled. “Then I need proof.” Elvir
Claudia was terrified when she heard Christian’s shout. Her courage shrank after seeing her cousin angry. She knew very well who Christian was. No one would dare face him in such a state because it was certain that person would end up beaten black and blue. Claudia also clearly remembered Christian’s position. This would definitely make things difficult for her if she ended up offending her cousin.“I’m sorry, Christian! I didn’t mean it like that! I was just worried!” Claudia said softly. She bowed her head because she didn’t dare to look at her cousin’s angry face.Christian took several deep breaths. He tried to control his emotions, which had flared up moments ago.“Sorry, I didn’t mean to yell at you!” Christian said after he had calmed down.“Never say something like that again. What if someone heard and misunderstood?” Christian continued.“Sorry!” Claudia squeaked. She felt guilty for accusing her cousin of such things. She should have handled it more maturely.“It’s late, go
Christian stopped talking after he remembered why he was looking for Tavares. He couldn’t tell Altus the real reason.Christian’s silence made Altus feel uneasy and a little suspicious. If it wasn’t something very important, Christian wouldn’t be looking for someone like this.“Why stop, sir? Can’t I know who that person is?” asked Altus in a soft voice, but his eyes were sharp.“Do you remember some people I met at a hotel where Elvira was?” Christian asked.Altus nodded. He remembered that incident.“Well, Tavares was one of them. In short, he dared to play games with me by trying to ruin my marriage,” Christian explained. “So, because he wants to play with me, I will give him a game he will remember for the rest of his life.”Altus fell silent for a moment. He had never seen Christian so angry before.“Well then, I will ask the troops to find Tavares’s whereabouts so we can quickly meet him. He really needs to be told that he’s messing with the wrong person,” growled Altus.Christi
“Nothing yet, Mr. Demetri. So far, that’s all I found from the search. But I promise I’ll look for more information later,” Altus said, bowing slightly. He admitted he hadn’t found much more about Daeron.“Alright then, keep searching for more information about Daeron. I’ll wait for good news, don’t disappoint me.”“Got it, Sir. I’ll focus more on finding information about Daeron,” Altus promised to Christian.After that, they both fell silent for a long time. No one initiated a conversation. Christian was preoccupied with thoughts about Daeron, Tavares, Yve, and many more. Meanwhile, Altus was busy trying to guess what Christian was thinking. He didn’t feel comfortable starting another conversation, so the only option he chose was to wait for Christian to say something to him.Altus glanced at Christian, but after waiting for a while, he still didn’t say anything.“Is there anything else you’d like to say, Mr. Demetri?” Altus asked after a few moments of silence from his superior.“H
