"Sir, are you all right?" asked Clif, helping Zayden up from his position. "I'm sorry, I have to do this for your safety."
Zayden now stood beside Clif, staring at the huge flames in front of him. He had reddened eyes and was staring very intently.
"Kill them all without a trace!" Zayden's order sounded extremely sinister. Clif couldn't say anything else when he saw the terrifying, dark aura that enveloped Zayden's body.
Clif gave the code to the car that had been following Zayden and Clif. They were Zayden's men, and having received the code from Clif, they understood what he meant and immediately drove away.
Blood dripped onto the asphalt from Zayden's tightly clenched hand. Clif looked at Zayden's back, who was still standing in place.
'Why? Why does it have to be like this, Oliv?' Zayden thought, staring at the flames. His eyes were red with tears, and there was a glassy bias in his e
"Sir, this is the report of the people involved in Miss Olivia's attempted murder last night." Clif handed Zayden a document."Everything taken care of?" asked Zayden."I have, sir. With nothing left," Clif replied. "And they are the men of Aland Banning.""I knew it," Zayden said. "It looks like Aland is starting to make his move. Clife, send our best spies to keep an eye on Aland's movements as well as the children of Simon Mateus.""Yes, sir." Clif immediately nodded his head. "There's one more thing: you left the meeting room last night, and Carlos called back for another meeting," Clif explained."Yes, just arrange the schedule.""Well, I'll be excused then." Clif left Zayden's room.After Clif's departure, Zayden got up from his seat and walked to the window of the room. Down there, he saw Olivia sitting in the garden with a book in her hand. Zayden silently watched her and smiled at the woman, whose name was now written in Zayd
Everyone gathered at the Mateus residence for the Queen's funeral. Diana did not want this matter to get out, so she begged Olivia to hold the Queen's funeral privately and simply. Everyone gathered in the Mateus family's spacious living room. The Queen's body lay in a casket. queen was beautifully dressed in a stunning white gown. "Back then, you really wanted this doll, didn't you?" asked Olivia, who was standing next to the coffin. "Now it's not too late for me to buy it for you, right, Queen?" Olivia placed the doll next to Queen's body while wiping her tears. Zayden stood beside her and embraced Olivia, trying to calm her down. "She's innocent; she's too young to go through all this," Olivia muttered.&n
"What do you think?" asked Zayden, approaching Olivia, who was standing in the back garden. "What?" asked Olivia, turning to Zayden. "The Sanders family home?" asked Zayden. Olivia gave a small smile there. "Are you trying to make fun of me?" Olivia asked. "Making fun? Do I like making fun of you? I'm asking seriously," Zayden said. "Of course, without even asking, it's obvious that this house is as big as a palace. What else do I need to comment on?" Olivia asked. "If, after we get married, we live here, are you okay with that?" Zayden asked, leaving Olivia stunned.&n
Olivia sat in the helicopter that would take her and Zayden to the black island, where the hunt was being conducted. Olivia peered out of the window, and there was more than just one helicopter coming in and preparing to land. Helicopters and a private jet down below. I don't know which country's sultan is coming to this hunt. The helicopter carrying Olivia and Zayden slowly descended and made a landing. The helicopter door opened, and Zayden got off first, then extended his hand towards Olivia. "Come on," Zayden invited. Olivia got off the helicopter with Zayden's help. Then they walked together to a large villa set up near the beach. There were so many people there, laughing and greeting each other. 'Are they Zayden's relatives? Wow, it'
"Ah, there's a rabbit," Olivia said, chasing after the rabbit. "Olivia?" Ariana was surprised when she turned around; there was no Olivia nearby. She had been so focused on the one corner that held her memories with someone that she had forgotten Olivia's whereabouts. "Oliv!" called Ariana, walking to find Olivia. "How is this? She doesn't know this vast forest area." Ariana immediately contacted the security guarding the CCTV room to find out where Olivia had gone. "Yes, ma'am. I'll take a look at the CCTV," replied the security guard Ariana had contacted. "Contact me immediately if you find her whereabouts. I'm afraid he's entered the red zone area," Ariana said. Ariana sent a
"How did you sleep? Was it good?" greeted Ariana as Olivia came out of the bathroom. "Yeah, not bad, sis," Olivia replied, remembering last night's incident where Zayden had almost done it on the balcony. But thankfully, he fell asleep at the last second when Olivia's defenses were about to collapse. Olivia led her defence's room; thankfully, she met Zayden's brother Javier, and Zayden's body was taken over by Javier. The problem was that, because of that incident, Olivia couldn't fall asleep at all because she kept thinking about what happened last night. "Why are you daydreaming? Let's go downstairs; the others must have gathered for breakfast," Ariana said. "Yes, brother."&nb
"Finally back after that hunt," Olivia murmured as she walked into Zayden's villa. "Oh, yes, Oliv. There will be a press conference the day after tomorrow; prepare yourself," Zayden said. "What press conference?" asked Olivia. "I will be announcing our relationship and wedding soon," Zayden said. Olivia was silent for a while. "Alright, I'll prepare myself." "Ivy will accompany you to meet a famous designer. Choose a nice dress that suits you well. I can't accompany you because of work," Zayden said. "Isn't it too much? There are still some clothes you bought me that I
"Miss Olivia, someone is looking for you downstairs," said the maid at Zayden's villa. "Looking for me? Who?" asked Olivia, quite confused because, as far as she knew, no one knew that because she was here. The waiter seemed at a loss for an answer. "The guest is waiting in the living room," the waiter replied with his head bowed. "The living room?" Olivia was even more surprised. The room was rarely occupied by guests, except for the family, who probably came here often. But as far as Olivia knew, none of Zayden's family had been here, and no guests had entered the living room. "I'll see her right away," Olivia replied, and the waitress immediately retreated. "Zayden is not at
It was late at night, and the atmosphere around the Sanders mansion was getting quieter, as if the world outside had fallen asleep. Inside the spacious garden, there were Zayden and Olivia, who were enjoying a leisurely walk in the garden area.The pitch-black sky with no stars seemed to envelop them in a romantic atmosphere that made their hearts flutter. Zayden's embrace on Olivia's waist, who is pregnant, never leaves, signaling a deep love and a sense of protection that is irreplaceable, like he is a protector who is ready to face anything for the happiness of his wife and their future baby.“It's quite cold tonight,” Olivia said.“Do you want to come in?” Zayden asked.“No, I don't. I want to enjoy this relaxing situation with you,” Olivia said with a gentle smile.“If you feel tired, just say so. We can stop and sit down; don't push yourself, especially since you're pregnant with twins,” said Zayden.“No need to worry. I'm a strong mom-to-be,” Olivia chuckled. “Daddy is Zayden S
A few months later... “You're so beautiful, Ivy. And graceful, of course,” praised Olivia as her belly grew quite large. “I'm so fluttery, sis. Isn't my appearance embarrassing? I'm not used to dressing like this,” Ivy said very nervously there. “Of course not. I've taught you how to walk gracefully and quietly. So, don't let me down, okay?” Olivia said, making Ivy's face even more nervous. Ivy still couldn't believe that, like a dream, the day would come when she would tie the knot with Clif. Imagine that the man she had always rejected as a child, growing up together in Black Cat, would now be her husband.In the past, Ivy had always envisioned her life as that of a devoted bodyguard, protecting her superiors relentlessly, thinking of it as her life's purpose. She thought, Why bother thinking about love and relationships when there are more noble pursuits?However, all that starts to change when he has to be the bodyguard of Olivia,
“Mr. Zayden!” the call stopped Zayden who was walking in the corridor of the United Kingdom royal mansion. He was slightly startled and immediately stopped his steps, turning his head curiously towards the voice calling his name. At that moment, his eyes caught a group of women with big smiles on their faces, feeling a mix of confused and uncomfortable. “What's wrong?” he asked, trying to maintain a cool tone of voice despite feeling disturbed and uncomfortable inside. Suddenly, the swarm of women approached eagerly, each clutching a colorful bouquet of flowers, where the fresh scent of roses and lilies seemed to fill the air, plus some neatly wrapped gifts. Zayden had never imagined that he would be surrounded by fans from all walks of life, and perhaps because he had already won several tournaments, things felt a little different. One of them, with curly hair and sparkling eyes, stepped forward and handed over the large, beautiful-loo
“Oliv!” Zayden arrived at the room Olivia was in, his body covered in sweat and his breathing ragged from running from the field to this resting place. He had really had a grueling time on the field, contributing to every play. With his t-shirt soaking wet, Zayden felt extremely tired, but somehow, out of concern, he didn't care. When the door to the room opened, the fresh scent of air conditioning greeted him, and there, he saw Olivia asleep on the bed with her eyes closed. Ariana seemed to have just finished checking on her unconscious wife. “What about her? What's going on?” Zayden asked Ariana with concern and a very troubled look in his eyes. “Calm down, your wife is fine,” replied Ariana as she put the medical equipment back into her bag. “What's wrong? She wouldn't have fainted if she was fine,” Zayden protested in annoyance. “Calm down, Zayden. Olivia threw up quite a lot and collapsed from exhaustion,” Aria
“Wow, that looks like it's going to be interesting,” Kimberly said, looking at the field with enthusiasm. She kept looking at her husband, who was already preparing on the field with his team.“They're so dashing,” Evelyn said.“Hopefully this time they will win,” said Olivia.“You guys just calm down. They will win; they never lose. In fact, you should be worried about their opponents; after all, why do they continue to compete if it is clear who will be the winner?” said Ariana.“As usual. They just want to charm and show off their skills,” said Javeera.“So is it going to be boring?” asked Kimberly.“Of course not. When they show up, we'll enjoy it. Yes, that's another advantage of our husbands,” said Javeera, making the others chuckle.Olivia looked up at Zayden, who was wearing a blue cap and a white and blue team uniform that matched her perfectl
However, seeing the enthusiasm of the people around her, she began to feel excited to join in the fun, looking forward to the matches that were about to begin and feeling the warmth of togetherness amidst all the flashy crowds.“Olivia, come here,” Ariana called.“Can I sit with the ladies over there?” Olivia questioned Zayden.“Go ahead. I'm getting ready for the tournament,” Zayden said.“All right. I hope you do well,” Olivia encouraged her husband.Olivia sat down to join the women and immediately started talking about the tournament.“What tournament is being held today?” Olivia asked.“An object-shooting riding tournament,” Ariana replied.“They're going to be cowboys,” chuckled Rainy, Javeera's sister.And there was a sound from the podium area in the field area, signaling that the long-awaited tournament was finally about to begin
The following day, after breakfast, Zayden went with the men to do some horse riding and archery training. It turned out that they didn't have that much time to walk around. Ariana joined Olivia, and the women were practicing shooting exercises in the training room.“Oliv, can you ride a horse?” asked Ariana.“I've tried; it's just that I haven't ridden a horse in a long time,” Olivia replied.“I'll ask the ranch manager to prepare a horse that is completely tame for you. After shooting practice, would you like to try riding a horse? asked Ariana.“Yes, Sis.”Olivia saw Ariana as more cheerful, as if the burden on her shoulders had just been lifted from her. Even after the incident, Olivia did not expect to be close to Ariana again.The atmosphere inside the shooting range practice room mesmerized Olivia as soon as she entered. The room was much larger than she had imagined, complete with all the sop
“Is this the United Kingdom's royal house?” asked Olivia when they arrived.“Yes, this is the United Kingdom. Zayden replied, "This is the home of Archil and Javeera."In front of Olivia stood a United Kingdom royal castle that really fascinated her, like it came from a fairy tale she read as a child. The building was towering, with magnificent architecture that made anyone feel so small, coupled with ornamental details that emphasized the luxury typical of the British kingdom. Several formally dressed guards stood guard at the entrance area, looking dashing and serious, as if guarding the precious secrets kept within the castle's walls.The large windows gleaming in the sunlight added a sense of elegance to the building, making Olivia imagine how beautiful the view inside would be. And let's not forget the luxurious cars lined up in front, shiny and expensive-looking, making Olivia even more amazed. All this time, she thought the Sanders resid
"I can finally face the person who killed my husband!" Ariana exclaimed, causing Jakson to open his eyes. He was surprised to see Ariana standing in front of him, and behind her, Zayden, with her sharp eyes."Wh-what are you doing here?" asked Jakson, becoming agitated. He started to struggle, but the chains binding him were strong enough to overwhelm him."Am I wasting my time rebelling when I know I can't escape?" Ariana said this as she walked out of the cell. After a few seconds, she returned with a golf club and a whip in her hand."What do you want to do? Why are you carrying that?" asked Jakson apprehensively."Why do you feel scared just by looking at this?" Ariana inquired. "Didn't you arrogantly kill my husband and make Olivia hurt?" Ariana was very annoyed. "Don't tell me you're scared because you saw this.""Zayden Sanders! Please give me a chance; I can definitely be of use to you. Make me your partner; I'll definitely be more useful t
