Alana sighed, trying to offer to help even though she knew Roselyn would probably refuse her help because she was devastated.“Alright, if you're going to leave this hotel anyway, but at least let me drive. You can't drive in your muddled state of mind like this,” Alana said in a soft but firm tone.Alana's guess was right, Roselyn shook her head hard, refusing the offer.Roselyn who was in stubborn mode, but could still answer with a trembling voice. “No, Alana. I don't want to involve you any further. This is my own business. I thank you for helping me even at this late hour. I apologize for disturbing you.”Without waiting any longer, Roselyn got into the BMW 760 that her husband had bought for her. Perhaps after this she would return this car to Edward.With a single jerk, the engine started, and in an instant, the car sped out of the parking lot, disappearing into the darkness of the night. Alana could only stand there, genuinely worried about Roselyn's condition.Even though the
Edward didn't want to waste time and felt regretful. He quickly carried his wife to his car, and the BMW 760 continued to spark. Edward was afraid that the car would suddenly explode.“Hang in there, darling,” Edward said with great anxiety and guilt.Once Roselyn was comfortably seated in her car seat, Edward immediately drove the vehicle down the deserted streets with Roselyn's unconscious body beside him.Roselyn's weak breathing and the blood dripping from her head made every second feel like endless torture to Edward. The car sped away, fighting against time, fighting against the fate that seemed to be trying to take everything from his life.With trembling hands, Edward continued to control the steering wheel. Every breath of Roselyn's that sounded weaker and weaker haunted Edward's mind, making him drive the vehicle even faster, hoping that a miracle could happen in the middle of this dark night.The car Edward was driving arrived right in front of the doors of General Riversid
Those questions kept swirling in his head. However, when the car he was driving passed the marcosta company building, because the apartment building was still about 300 meters away.Edward actually saw many paparazzi trying to get into the company area. All of this was completely out of his plan.“The scattered photos, especially of me at some point of the Marcos mansion and the last one in the dining room of the Marcos mansion, were taken from CCTV cameras.” Edward sighed as he realized that there was a traitor in his family. He clenched his hands into fists with frustrated thoughts. “I'll find the person soon. But for now I have to make sure that Roselyn understands that I was framed.”For Edward who was still frustrated, Roselyn was his priority.Finally, the car driven by Edward entered the basement of the apartment. He got out while looking down, continuing to speed up his pace. He had to quickly reach the apartment, a safe place, away from the public eye, and a place where he co
Maria sat beside him, looking at Edward with a gentle yet serious gaze. “We are worried about you, Edward. You can't go on like this. What is really going on?”Edward stared blankly ahead, as if trying to gather his thoughts. “Roselyn... She knows about the trap Natalia set. I tried to explain everything, but it was too late. She can't accept any of it. I just want her to understand that I never wanted this to happen.”Maria let out a long sigh, sensing her sister's sadness. “And what did she say?”Edward closed his eyes, feeling a heavy weight on his chest. “She didn't believe me, Maria. She left with tears in her eyes... and I couldn't do anything to stop her. I feel like all of this happened because of my fault.”Robert, who was standing by the door, said quietly, “Edward, you must be strong. Roselyn may feel disappointed and angry now, but she will understand with time. You can't be like this.”Edward just nodded slowly, but in his heart, he knew that this pain would not go away e
Currently at the Marcosta company, the clock was only 11pm.A black Porsche Panamera, which all employees knew belonged to Alexander Marcos, was seen entering the company yard and stopped in front of the company lobby.“Good afternoon, Mr. Alex,” greeted the security guard at the lobby.“Good afternoon,” Alex replied in a friendly manner. It was uncharacteristic.The security guard was surprised, but ignored him.Alex continued to walk into the Marcosta company building with seemingly calm steps, even though the trembling inside him continued to haunt him.He still remembered Jason Falcon's threat that was still ringing clearly in his mind, making his every step heavy.Alex walked with his heart saying, 'I have to finish this right now,'Alex kept convincing himself that what he was about to do was right. The safety of his wife and children was his top priority.'I can't imagine what Jason would do to me and my family. Ah, damn it! Why didn't I think about the consequences of joining
“Turn around! Get to Marcosta's company right now!” Robert ordered the driver sternly.“What's wrong, Robert?” asked a surprised Maria.Robert told her the news he had received from Emily Algren's men. The woman had even been admitted to the ICU of Elite Serenity Hospital, which was located not far from Marcosta's company building.By now, the car Robert and Maria were traveling in had arrived at Marcosta's company.“What happened? Why isn't there an escort for Miss Algren?” Robert asked in a high tone of voice due to emotion.All the security team as well as Miss Algren's bodyguards could only look down because they felt they had failed. Only one of them dared to speak because he was the one who found her lying on the floor of his office covered in blood.“So Alexander did it?” asked Robert.“Yes, sir.” The bodyguard nodded with certainty. “He was seen walking fast and did come out of the emergency exit. He said he was in a hurry and we believed him. We thought there was an intruder.
Edward looked in the direction of the voice. It was Maria.“I called you many times, but the operator always answered,” Maria squealed. “I remembered that you were going to see your wife, so I followed you here.”“But she didn't believe me, Maria.” Edward looked still depressed. “I had to go after her.”“No, Ed! Listen to me!”“No! I must go after Roselyn. She must see this evidence.” Edward's face was red with the pressure-filled frustration of his problems with Roselyn going crazy.“Stop dwelling on your personal problems, Ed!” Maria yelled at the top of her lungs and began to get carried away. “Snap out of it! Don't keep drowning in your own personal problems and ignore what's far more important.”Edward was in a daze. But my wife-”Soon a loud slapping sound was heard, followed by Edward's body being slammed to the floor with a bang as well.So annoyed with her brother's sudden stupid and annoying behavior, Maria slapped him hard.Edward was silent for a moment. There was a sense o
A black sedan darted quickly through the deserted streets of the Town of Riverside. The rain was falling gently, like a whisper of sorrow that enveloped the night. The drops that fell from the sky brought a sense of sadness, as if nature was mourning the passing of Salvour Marcos, the revered patriarch of the Marcos family. Every drizzle that touched the ground was as if it were the sky's tears crying for the departed figure, making the dark night even more somber and silent.Inside the car, there were three women lost in their own thoughts. Lily, who was behind the wheel, tried to remain calm, even though her heart was raging. All she had in mind was a way to reconcile Roselyn and Edward. They must not get divorced.In the slow-moving car, Roselyn sat silently with a blank look, occasionally wiping her face with a tissue, wiping away the tears that continued to flow despite her best efforts to hold them back. Her face looked pale, and inside her, there was an inner battle that nev
