Jovan looked down at Selena who was sweating coldly there. He sighed softly, quite distraught over what had happened so suddenly. The rapid change in atmosphere made it difficult for him to make quick decisions and think about what might be beneficial.
His one partner was dead and he and his remaining partner were now cornered inside the stopped helicopter. And as the cautious and simultaneous sound of steps approached, the enemy was now trying to corner them even more.Since the one they wanted was probably Selena, Jovan could now only stare at Selena for a few moments. As Selena stared at him also with confusion over the situation, as well as fear of what she was facing. Never in her wildest dreams had she thought she would face a situation like this. Ever since Damian's kidnapping and captivity, her normal life had vanished."Hey..." Jovan called softly."Mm?" Selena muttered and looked at Jovan who seemed to want to say something."I'll pick you up againHarvest chuckled. He was clearly enjoying Damian who seemed to be distracted by Selena's absence. Selena being with him even seemed like a new weakness for Damian. Damian was easily affected by her presence and absence. "What if I don't want to?" Harvest raised one eyebrow, as if challenging him. Damian looked at him angrily. He quickly changed places and stood right in front of Harvest. Which Damian immediately grabbed Harvest by the collar of his shirt and made Harvest have to look up because the collar of his clothes was pulled and he began to suffocate. However, despite being a little panicked, he tried to calm down and showed his grin. "Don't act like this, Damian. Why are you so affected by that girl? Do you love her? You're in love with a toy you picked up off the street?" Harvest seemed to take advantage of the incident to mock Damian. "You know damn well that she's the key to getting the chip back. I need her," Damian replied, his answer already represen
Selena blinked her eyes. After some time she fell asleep forcibly due to the effects of the liquid the nurse gave her, she finally regained consciousness. Selena stared at the infirmary which made her feel calm if she was in a place like a hospital. Because her body felt sore, Selena wanted to move her body, but she realized that her hands could not move freely. One hand uncovered the blanket she was using, and sure enough. Her left hand was handcuffed to the gurney she was sleeping on. No wonder she felt that her left shoulder was also sore and uncomfortable. So, she stretched her body limited. Someone entered the room and made Selena turn to the door. The door to the room was automatic and closed again as soon as Harvest entered. Harvest smiled as she looked at Selena, greeting her in a kind and friendly manner. While Selena furrowed her brow. "How are you feeling, Miss Selena? Are you feeling better?" asked Harvest as he approached. Selena gave Harvest a confu
"You're too close." Selena chuckled awkwardly while pulling her face back. Meanwhile, Harvest kept smiling while waiting for Selena to speak. He chuckled as Selena retreated, it seemed Selena was also full of caution at the moment. Her level of alertness increased dramatically once she realized her normal world was gone. "No one calls his names like that except for certain people. And you... seem to be that certain person. You're even too young, you could at least call him sir," Harvest muttered. "He's not my teacher, why should I call him sir? After all, he never protested how I called him. No, it's more like I never called his by name directly." Selena recalled when she had ever called Damian by name. As she remembered, she had only called Damian with 'hey', 'you', and other pronouns. "Ah, I see now. So, you're pretty close to him, huh, if you dare to call him that in his absence?" Harvest raised her eyebrows. "I don't know the exact answer to that,"
Harvest smiled after contacting Damian through Luca. He then looked at the figure who was now sitting in the chair with his head bowed. Harvest looked at the semi-conscious Jovan. Jovan had lost a lot of blood. Although his wounds were treated, he hadn't eaten anything since yesterday and that left him weak and his consciousness between presence and absence at that moment. "Who would have thought that I would meet you again." Harvest pushed the head of Jovan who looked completely helpless at the moment. Harvest chuckled, he seemed to be having fun. There were many benefits he got from yesterday's tragedy. A new deal with Damian, mending his broken relationship, being able to keep Selena in his place for a while, and now, he had discovered a new fact about the man in front of him. "I've contacted Damian, he must be on his way here by now. Oh, I'm so curious about his reaction to what I've got," Harvest muttered as he strolled nearby, indirectly showing his power.
"Alright, then where is Selena now?" Damian calmed himself down, looked at Axel for a moment and then looked at Harvest who was about to answer his question. "Oh, Selena's not here. Selena is at the hospital in the city center. She had to undergo more serious treatment after she tried to escape and she got some pretty serious injuries," Harvest explained. Damian frowned. He was quite suspicious of what Harvest said. As long as Selena was with him, Selena wouldn't try to escape to the point of hurting herself. Selena might indeed try, binding the meaning of her life so far is indeed working on her desires. But if it comes to hurting herself, so far Selena hasn't done it. Harvest himself looks relaxed saying it. As if it was not a serious thing. Of course, it was a consideration that Harvest had done too. "Are you playing games with me now?" Damian looked sharply at Harvest. "What kind of game am I playing with you right now? It's obvious that I'm helping you
Selena opened her eyes, she felt her head was more dizzy than ever. And she sat up slowly while holding her head. Her eyes glanced around the room which was already different from what she remembered. She blinked her eyes as she frowned. "Where else would this be..." Selena hissed softly while gently massaging her head. Selena then looked straight ahead. Where there was a mirror. On her temple was a bandage that she could still remember. But on the corner of her forehead, she found a new bandage. She was sure she hadn't been injured at all before, but instead she had gotten a new injury unknowingly. "Eh? When did I get hurt? I didn't do anything," she muttered in astonishment. And again like that time, the door opened as soon as she woke up. She could see Harvest again coming in just as Selena woke up. Selena looked at Harvest who was now smiling as he approached her. Of course for Selena this was very suspicious. How Harvest seemed to be watching her and knew wh
"How are you feeling? Your fever's gone down, huh?" Damian chuckled softly as he looked at Selena who was sitting on the floor with her head turned up towards him. Selena showed her surprise that she was now seeing Damian again. She remembered how Harvest had asked her if she chose between Damian or Harvest, and immediately Selena would choose Damian given the heinous things Harvest had done to her.Harvest gave her a new wound, which was enough to scare her a little with his strange behavior. But she didn't expect Harvest to actually send her back to Damian. Although she didn't know where she was now, in a plain room with only a few chairs. The room looked deserted and quiet. "It's a shame you're not in the best of shape right now. But that's okay, I'll think carefully about what entertainment I deserve," Damian murmured. "What do you mean?" Selena wrinkled her forehead, she tried to be calm even though her voice sounded shaky as if she was afraid of who was in f
"I'm waiting for you. Always. I've always waited for you." Selena said as she tried to hold back her tears from crying again. "I needed time. I'm trying to speed things up," Axel replied. "You should have replied to the email I sent you. Everything would have been faster if you'd replied and said you'd do the exchange. Why are you waiting for all this to happen? Ah, I wanted it to end quickly, but since it's come this far, I can't back out either." Damian crossed his arms. Selena sat up while holding her head. She felt her head spin again. She didn't know how she got the new wound, but it was painful and throbbing. Axel was a little worried and panicked when he saw Selena sitting up. Her condition didn't look good at the moment. Not to mention, Selena was injured. He remembered that she took good care of her before they were caught by Harvest and there were no injuries at all that time. "Are you okay? You don't look well right now. What did that crazy bastar
"Listen..." Selena tried to catch her breath, she endured the pain in her stomach as she stood up. "I haven't had anything to do with my own mother since I was little. I don't even know who my father is, even though I use his last name. I don't even know you at all. Can't it stay that way?" Selena looked at Alice. What Alice was doing right now, Selena could tell if Alice hated her as her husband's illegitimate child. That was all she could understand. "You won't. You'll wonder who your father is, what his family is like now and come to destroy your father's family. That's all that will happen in the future, and I'm trying to prevent that from happening. By what? By getting rid of you." Alice took a shaky breath, looking at Selena like someone facing her greatest fear. Alice approached and Selena flung herself to the floor, picking up the knife under her feet with her hands still tied behind her body. She wanted to keep the knife with her, nothing more. She had no int
Damian was breathing heavily. He ran a hand through his slightly messy hair, smoothing it out a bit, at least not blocking his view. And he looked at the butler who was now also catching his breath after being caught by his driver and bodyguard. Meanwhile, Luca was far behind due to his different physical abilities. Damian's driver and bodyguard certainly had more time to strengthen his physique. While he works more with his brain. Even so, his physique could not be underestimated. "You run like you know what will happen if you get caught. I wonder what Harvest promised you that you would betray me. You know, I wouldn't have a problem at all if you were just running away from your responsibilities. But what have you done? You made Selena not take her contraceptive pills, and you harmed her too." Damian took a breath before continuing. "Then you pushed her at the party. I don't understand what you really want." The woman kept her mouth shut. She seemed to have no
"Didn't I warn you not to play with my future daughter-in-law and grandchild? I don't understand why you're brave enough to take such a risk." Hendry took a drag on his cigarette while holding the cell phone to his ear. He was in the middle of contacting Derek when he heard that Selena had been kidnapped from his son. ["What do you mean, Mr. Sagaras? I've clearly agreed to your words, in exchange for her not using my family's name and you not dragging in my family who have nothing to do with your future daughter-in-law."]"But what I heard today from my son is different. Selena was kidnapped by your wife." Hendry sighed, he was also trying to remain relaxed in the face of this and believed that everything would work out fine if everything was done casually and carefully. ["Selena was kidnapped... by my wife?"]["Look, I don't understand what you mean. My wife knows absolutely nothing about Selena. And she should. I wanted my family not to hear anything ab
"What kind of atmosphere is this?" Damian got goosebumps after hearing what his father said. "Be direct and upfront. Do you know who's behind this? What you just said suggests that you really do know who's behind this."["Of course. Who else if not the Raguano family?"]"But how did they find out about Selena? I never even intentionally-"["I was the one who told Selena's father about Selena's whereabouts. Before coming to you, I naturally found out who the girl was. And it was quite surprising to find out that she was Derek's daughter. It's just that I was certainly confused about his unknown daughter. Finally, I and I talked for a while on the phone about Selena."] "How could you-"["Wait a minute. You should listen to me first. I warned Derek. I'm going to make Selena my daughter-in-law, I told him. So, he shouldn't try to bother Selena at all. I also promised to keep his family's good name as long as he keeps quiet. Most likely, Mrs. Raguano knew this too. T
["She was here earlier. She said she was going to look around the front near the main door. I meant it, she was with me earlier. I just left her for a while to do a transaction. It really doesn't make sense for her to run away."]Grace gripped her front hair in frustration at not finding Selena with her. She had no idea where Selena had gone. And all she could think about now was how she should deal with this situation. Meanwhile, Luca, who was being contacted by Grace now in a panic, rushed out of the store with Damian. Damian didn't look panicked, he just looked annoyed and angry at the moment. "You just ask the people at the boutique to check the CCTV and tell me which way Selena went," Luca said. "So she ran off after everything she told me? She played me? I won't let you get away, Selena." Damian clenched his fists at the sides of his shoulders. ["I've asked them to check the CCTV and they've given me permission. In a moment, they're checking it."]L
"Huh... always me." Grace sighed as she accompanied Selena to her room. "If you don't want to, that's fine. You just have to say it. I don't want to. That's it." Selena looked at Grace, she could understand that Grace might be sick of being with her all the time. "It's not like that. It's not that I don't want to." Grace was a little panicked that Selena thought so. "It's just... no. It's impossible to refuse his orders. But I'm happy to be able to take a walk with you even if I have to go to the hospital again later. Today, I'm allowed to take you out and drive." Grace looked excited today. Because she would be out with Selena all day. Selena was also surprised that Damian would let her go out for a walk just like that. It made her think about what Damian had said about who she would meet tonight and eat with. "He's going out to dinner with a girl. I think that's why he let me out. Probably so I wouldn't get upset or jealous. But does he really think about my fe
Selena whimpered softly as Damian bit her shoulder. Then, Damian's lips brushed her collarbone, until Damian's face was on Selena's nape at this moment. The man sniffed Selena's neck, and kissed her as if it was a sign of apology after biting her shoulder. "Sorry, next time I won't talk about Axel anymore." Selena understood what Damian wanted. Damian only cleared his throat in response. But for now he wouldn't just let Selena go. He bit lightly on the skin of Selena's neck, which made Selena have to squeal softly.After a few bites, Damian sucks on the skin of Selena's neck in several spots. Sucking long enough to leave red marks that wouldn't disappear overnight. His hands don't stay still, Damian's hands explore Selena's body. Damian's breathing was labored, his voice getting lower as well. While Selena squirmed under Damian's body. She didn't resist. Damian's touch was much more but than she remembered, she had no reason to resist. After all, Damian had also b
"You can cancel the reservation, why are you confused?" Luca asked. "I can't just cancel it. Even if I don't feel well, we'll still have dinner there. Did you forget that we have to go to Beijing tomorrow?" Damian looked at Luca. "Of course I remembered. I remember your schedule better than you do," Luca replies. "We're going to stay a few days in Beijing. And it feels like, if I just leave... Ugh, how to explain that?" Damian holds his forehead, one hand resting on his waist. Luca widened his eyes and chuckled softly. He understood why Damian insisted on coming to the restaurant. The guy was even willing to push himself like that for a girl. Normally, he wouldn't bother with something like this. While the two of them were still in Damian's workroom in the mansion, and Damian also had to check a few things because he had not been actively working all day. There were also some documents that he had to double-check. It made him have to be active at night.
Alice Raguano laughed at the words of the woman who insisted on seeing her with the lure of a big piece of information. She laughed with amusement at this. "Who else would use the name Raguano besides our family members?" she replied while laughing softly with amusement, although there was a momentary anxiety in her heart.Meanwhile, the butler took something out of his bag and handed her a photo. An old photo of Selena taken when Damian was stalking her before kidnapping her. A photo that was enough to illustrate the answer to Alice's question just now. Alice was still smiling before taking a good look at the photo. She accepted it casually and looked at the photo. Her face had not changed at all as she stared at the photo. "Oh my, what is this?" Alice stared at the photo for a long time, her forehead furrowed as she felt familiar with the photo. Then, Alice stared at the butler for a while with a changed look on her face. She then stared at the photo and gr
