"Yes, what is it?" Audie came to open the door and was surprised to see the police.But he tried to calm down and justify his purpose for coming. "Sorry to disturb you, I'm from the police. Can I talk to you for a moment?" the policeman asked in a friendly but firm tone.Audie nodded anxiously. "Yes, of course. Please come in," he said, trying to calm himself despite his palpitations."I don't think it's necessary, we've only come to look for Giorgio's brother."Audie nodded, feeling a little relieved. "Oh, my son-in-law? He's not here right now, he went out of town on business. Is there anything I can help you with?" he asked politely."Well, if it's okay to know where he went, we're just asking for information about brother Giorgio's involvement with the embezzlement case of The G.S company's funds and the embezzlement of imported goods committed by a suspect named Ricard."Audie was surprised to hear that information. "Sorry, but I have no information about that. My son-in-law, Gi
To satisfy her curiosity, Sierra went to the G.S company. Sierra just stared at the company's activities from afar, nothing had changed but everything was different because it was not Gama who owned it. Moreover, Sierra had never come at all just to introduce herself as the CEO's wife in the company so no one knew her."Excuse me, can I help you?" Asked the security guard who noticed Sierra's presence. Sierra snapped out of her reverie as she was startled by the security guard's voice. She readjusted her expression, trying not to look too distracted. "Oh, I'm sorry. I was just looking around," she replied politely. Sierra was about to leave but stopped in her tracks when she saw a woman who had just left the company."Excuse me, can I ask you a question? If I may know who that woman is?" Sierra asked the security."She is Miss Zean, the CEO of this company. Do you know her?"Sierra was surprised to hear that the woman was the CEO of the company Gama used to own. Her hopes were dashe
"You didn't tell me to, but you can't leave me alone...!" said Lusia firmly. "Why do you always bother me every time I get a client until the client leaves or switches to you until you get the bonus. Don't because you're the senior here that you keep bullying me!" she continued.Surprisingly, Lusia, who from the beginning Gama saw quite calm, was able to speak loudly and boldly. Not in accordance with what Gama predicted."You dare to me, Lusia, who do you think you are? Just watch me get you dishonorably discharged without even severance pay!"Lusia responded sarcastically to what her colleague had said, "Go ahead, do whatever you want. Do I care? I don't. After I'm done with this one client, I'll voluntarily resign!" she replied firmly. Then returned his focus to Gama, but before that he apologized."I apologize Sir, for your inconvenience, so now what kind of house you are looking for, you can see it directly to the location if you wish." He continued kindly."Gama nodded in agreem
Once not at the company, Gama asked Lusia to take care of all the paperwork and complete the payment immediately. But before that could happen, Lusia's coworker came back and made trouble again."Lusia, the house is going to be bought by my client, so you can't sell it anymore." She said firmly. Then Lusia who heard that did not accept it, and tried to give understanding"That's impossible, I already sold it to Mr. Gama. And we have a deal. I came to the house first anyway!"Lusia stood up straight, showing her professional attitude despite the pressure from her coworker. "The sales agreement was made with Mr. Gama, and all procedures were followed according to company policy. It would be unfair and unethical to cancel the deal that has already been made," she asserted.Her coworkers seemed dissatisfied with Lusia's answer and prepared to argue further. However, Gama, who had had enough of the cynical and insulting attitudes of some people since she arrived, decided to take charge.Ga
In the midst of the heated debate, the manager appeared to be unhappy with the situation. In a stern voice, he reprimanded Lusia. "What's going on?" He asked. The tall, thin man with a neat appearance looked at Gama and Lusia sarcastically. "Lusia, what's going on? Are you causing trouble again?" He asked again in a sarcastic tone."No Mr. Manager, I already..." "Stop talking nonsense, Lusia. You're the one at fault here, so don't make excuses." Senior Lusia cut off the defense she was about to make."Is that true, Lusia? My God, I don't understand why you're always making trouble with your own seniors. You're new here, so stop making trouble!" Menjer said sharply at Lusia, who raised her hand to slap Lusia.Gama, seeing the action, moved quickly, restraining the manager's hand before it could touch Lusia. The tension in the room rose, but Gama remained calm, though her eyes and demeanor showed her dislike for the action that was about to take place."Attacking someone is not the wa
What's going on?" A middle-aged man, tall and handsome, came over and reprimanded everyone there. But his expression changed when he saw Gama. "Mr. Gama Featherston, is this you?" the man seemed enthusiastic about Gama's presence. "Welcome to my company, sir." he said as he reached out to shake hands, "Is there anything I can do for you?" he continued. Gama accepted the man's hand, "Mr. Horizon? Is this your property company?" The man, who turned out to be Mr. Horizon, the restaurant owner, nodded quickly. "Yes, this is my company and please introduce my daughter, Lusia Horizon." Everyone was stunned to hear Lusia's true identity. "Lusia... You...?" The Staff were also dumbfounded. So was the manager "Yes, I'm the only daughter of the owner of this company, and surprisingly, the man you've been insulting isn't as poor as you say. Do you know who he is? Lusia looked at the female Staff and the man who served as the Manager. "He is Featherston by name, that means he comes from
Gama walked into the house, immediately sensing the tension in the air. In a heated argument, she saw Sierra, Barbara, and her mother, Audie. When they saw Gama enter, the argument stopped for a moment.Barbara immediately blamed Gama for Giorgio's arrest by the police. "You have to take responsibility for all this! Giorgio was arrested for embezzlement involving your bankrupt company!"Sierra immediately tried to defend Gama, "No, it's not fair to blame Gama just like that. She can't be responsible for the actions of others. We should find out more about the situation before making any conclusions."Audie tried to mediate the situation, "Let us all calm down. We need to find out more about what really happened before blaming anyone."Gama was distressed to hear the accusations against him but was also moved to see Sierra standing by his side. In a calm voice, he spoke, "I don't know what really happened with Giorgio, but I will try to help find out. We must work together to solve thi
Sierra continued to stare at the certificate and title deed of the house in confusion while jealousy arose from Barbara."Honestly, who bought the house? Why are you the only one who was given it? Why didn't I? It's so unfair," said several people who looked at Sierra with annoyance."I don't know either, so don't ask me, Sister Barbara," Sierra replied."Let's just say you bought the house with company money, you're pretending this way to trick us all, aren't you?" asked Barbara again sarcastically.Sierra could only sigh at Barbara's accusation."I don't know what kind of things you're talking about, but I certainly didn't do anything bad like what you're talking about!" replied Sierra firmly. Audie, who was curious, also questioned her."Be honest with me, who bought you a house?" Audie asked suspiciously."I don't know either, Mom," Sierra still gave the same answer."Could it be Jordan? Yes, I think it's Jordan, Mom," Barbara added enthusiastically.Audie and Barbara suspected t
Sierra looked at her mother with teary eyes. "But, Mom..."Audie shook her head. "There is no but, Sierra. I know your heart is broken, but I also know that Gama loves you. We've all made mistakes, but what matters is how we fix them."Sierra took a deep breath, feeling calmer in her mother's presence. "Alright, mom. But I need time to digest all this."Audie smiled gently and rubbed Sierra's head. "I understand, dear. I'll call Gama. Give her a chance to explain and make things right."Audie walked out of the room with calm but confident steps, leaving Sierra with her thoughts. Moments later, Gama came back in, her eyes still red and regretful."Sierra, I know I've let you down," he said hoarsely. "But I promise I will do everything I can to make things right. I love you more than anything in the world."Sierra looked up at Gama, seeing the sincerity and guilt in his eyes. She knew their journey to restore trust and love would not be easy, but she was confident they could get through
Clarissa turned her head, turned her wheelchair, and looked at Vicky softly. "Vicky, are you coming?""Yes, I'm coming. I want to accompany you for treatment," Vicky replied, her voice full of sincerity."Really? I'm glad to hear that. But I don't think it's necessary. I still have my mom to accompany me," Clarissa replied with a faint smile. Soon, Audie arrived, carrying their flight files."But, Clarissa-""No, Vicky," Clarissa cut in, her voice trembling. "I apologize for being selfish with you. You're right; someone like me doesn't deserve you. I'm just a disabled woman who has little chance of recovery. You deserve to live happily with the woman you love, Lopiuy."Vicky leaned closer, grasping Clarissa's hand gently. "No, I chose you, Clarissa. Not because I felt sorry or forced to, but because I love you."Tears began to well up in Clarissa's eyes. "But Vicky, life with me will be difficult. I don't want to be a burden to you.""Clarissa, you're not a burden. You are my reason fo
Rony looked boldly at Jordan. "Yes, my future wife. And I won't let anyone bother her."Jordan looked confused and angry. She let go of Lopiuy's hand reluctantly, but her angry gaze remained fixed on Rony. "Lopiuy, is it true what he said?" she asked in an incredulous tone.Lopiuy looked at Rony in confusion, but before he could answer, Rony said firmly, "Yes, it's true.""Lopiuy, I can prove it to you," Rony continued without giving Lopiuy a chance to speak. He pulled Lopiuy back into the car and drove off. Seeing that, Jordan did not remain silent, he followed them wherever they went.On the way, Lopiuy repeatedly asked, "Where are we going? What did you mean by that?" But Rony didn't answer at all. He continued to drive until he arrived at the district court."Rony, what are we going to do here?" asked Lopiuy in confusion."Get married," Rony replied briefly."Marry? To whom?" Lopiuy looked even more confused.Rony did not answer. He just looked at Lopiuy gently and took his hand. "
At this moment, Sierra and Gama were enjoying breakfast together. Not long after, the waiter came to announce the arrival of a guest."Madam, we have a guest.""Who?" asked Sierra."Mr. Rony," replied the waiter."Rony? Why is he here so early? Just kick him out," replied Gama in an annoyed tone."Gama, don't be like that. Just let him in," Sierra pleaded calmly."Yes ma'am," the servant replied, and left to carry out Sierra's orders. Not long after, Rony came to meet them."Good morning," Rony said kindly. However, Gama's look of dislike made Rony feel uncomfortable and bowed his head."Sorry, I...""Rony, why are you here?" Lopiuy suddenly arrived, immediately grabbed Rony's hand and led her away."Sorry, young lady, for disturbing you," Lopiuy said before the two of them left."Lopiuy, wait, let her-" Sierra tried to stop Lopiuy, but her voice was cut off by Gama."Honey, let it go. We'll talk about this tomorrow. We have to go now," Gama said as she gently took Sierra's hand.Sierr
However, Rony's laughter came to an abrupt halt when the car Lopiuy was traveling in came to a sudden stop. Lopiuy hit the brakes hard, causing their bodies to jerk forward. "What's wrong?" asked Rony, confused.Lopiuy turned sharply to him, his face showing the anger he had been holding back. "Can't you stop talking? I'm sick of hearing your nonsense. Now you better get out of my car."Rony was surprised to hear Lopiuy's cold and sharp tone. "But, Lopiuy...."Lopiuy didn't want to hear any excuses. "Get out!" he exclaimed in a voice that could not be denied.With a heavy heart, Rony opened the car door and got out, standing on the side of the road while Lopiuy immediately drove away without a word. Rony could only watch the car disappear in the distance, feeling a mixture of confusion, disappointment, and a little regret for perhaps pushing too hard on Lopiuy. However, underneath it all, he still hoped there would be another chance to get to know Lopiuy better, someday.Rony stood on
"Lopiuy," Jordan called in a voice that sounded desperate."What else? Please stop bothering me. How many times do I have to tell you this?" replied Lopiuy in an angry tone, trying to control her emotions.They were in the lobby of the apartment, Lopiuy tried to get away but Jordan kept urging her to come back with him. Jordan looked desperate, trying to grab Lopiuy's hand but was firmly rejected."Lopiuy, please listen to me. I still love you. I know I've made a lot of mistakes, but I'm willing to fix them," Jordan said with a trembling voice.Lopiuy let out a long breath, trying to control her anger. "Jordan, you've hurt me so many times. I can't go on like this. I need space and time for myself. You must understand that.""But, Lopiuy, we can fix things together. I can't imagine life without you," Jordan continued, her voice growing more distressed."No, Jordan. You have to understand that this isn't about us anymore. It's about me having to move on with my life. I need freedom and
"Rony? Why are you here? And how do you know my apartment room?" asked Lopiuy, surprised to see Rony standing at the door."Is it a miracle that I found your room? I don't think so. Because we're still in the same building. I can still explore the forest, how much more this place?" replied Rony casually."Alright, I understand. Now tell me quickly, what's wrong?" asked Lopiuy in a worried tone."Don't you want to offer to let me in? My legs are tired from standing all the time," Rony complained as he glanced at Lopiuy's apartment.Lopiuy sighed. "No, I...""OK, thanks," Rony cut in quickly, just walked in and sat down on the sofa. "I'm thirsty, don't you have anything to eat and drink?"Lopiuy closed the door irritably. "Rony, you can't just walk into someone's apartment without permission. This is my private place."Rony just smiled broadly. "Yeah, yeah, I know. But we're friends, right? So, I feel comfortable here."Lopiuy shook his head and walked into the kitchen. He picked up a b
"Ricky, you... you're still here?" asked Lopiuy in surprise when he saw that the man was still in the office. The meeting had ended two hours ago, and now, as Lopiuy prepared to leave, he still saw Ricky there."Yes, I was waiting for you to come home. I want to take you home together. Do you want to?" Ricky asked in an expectant tone."Go home together?" Lopiuy repeated his words, confused."Yeah, I wanted to ask you earlier, but I know we're still talking about work, so we shouldn't be talking about anything other than work. So, do you want to go home with me?" Ricky tried to explain.Lopiuy hesitated for a moment, searching for the right words. "Sorry, I can't, I..."Ricky stopped him with a pleading look. "Lopiuy, please, just this once. I promise after this I won't force you to go out with me again. We'll just have dinner, that's all. Nothing more."Lopiuy looked at Ricky, seeing the earnestness in his eyes. He knew that Ricky wasn't lying. Although his heart was still in doubt,
After traveling for a few minutes, the car driven by Lopiuy finally arrived at its destination. They both got out of the car and headed to the apartment where Rony would be living.Rony looked at the towering apartment building with a mixture of awe and anxiety. This was a new beginning for him, and although he felt grateful, there was also a sense of uncertainty that haunted him."This is the place," Lopiuy said nonchalantly. "The apartment is quite cozy and in a great location. You'll feel at home here. I also live here, I'm on the top floor, Apartment Suite Room."Rony nodded as he looked around. The neighborhood looked clean and organized, with green trees giving it a beautiful feel. "Thank you, Lopiuy. I really appreciate all your help.""Don't hesitate, Rony. Sierra and Gama want to make sure you have the best after all that has happened," Lopiuy replied with a smile. "Come, I'll show you to your room."The two of them then entered the apartment building. A spacious lobby with m
