"Your condition is fine. There is no need to worry, just get enough rest, avoid stress, and take more vitamins," said the Doctor in a soft voice, trying to calm Sierra down. "What am I sick of, Doc?" asked Sierra in confusion. The Doctor explained, "From the initial examination, it looks like you are suffering from physical exhaustion and stress. However, what is affecting your health more is your pregnancy, according to the results of the examination you also tested positive for dua weeks pregnant." Sierra was shocked at the Doctor's explanation, her eyes widening in confusion. "Pregnant?" she murmured as if digesting the news. The Doctor nodded with a gentle smile. "Yes, the examination results show that you are about two weeks pregnant." Sierra felt her world spinning. It was hard to believe that she was pregnant, and she was still trying to comprehend how much her life would change without Gama. "I... I don't know what to say," Sierra said in a shaky voice, trying to hold bac
Suddenly, the quiet atmosphere in the park was interrupted by the presence of a man who suddenly appeared to stop the commotion firmly. "Stop it. What are you doing?" the man said in a calm yet authoritative voice, indicating that he would not tolerate the continuation of the argument. The atmosphere on the street became tense as Alex suddenly appeared, stopping the argument with a firm and authoritative voice. Sierra, surprised by her friend's presence, turned to her with a deep sense of wonder. "Alex? You..." Sierra tried to start her sentence, but she was cut off by Alex's interruption. "Miss Sierra, are you alright?" interrupted Alex, his face filled with fear and concern for Sierra's condition. Sierra took a deep breath before answering, trying to calm her friend, who looked very worried. "Yeah, I'm fine. I made a mistake, so I..." But Alex didn't give her a chance to continue. "No, Miss. You're not wrong. We were wrong. Please forgive us. And you!" said Alex firmly, staring
Alex paid no attention to the Barbarian and focused more on Sierra. "Miss, I take my leave. If there is anything, you can contact us. Until Mr. Gama returns, my men and I will protect you. Contact me immediately if anyone tries to harm me," Alex said politely before leaving. Barbara and Audie, who saw this, remained silent, with their faces full of confusion. Later, they asked Sierra about what happened. "Sierra, what happened?" asked Barbara, her voice full of worry. "Yes, Sierra, what happened? Why did you go with that criminal?" added Audie, also asking in confusion. Giorgio, who was also there, also questioned Sierra's departure, even accusing. "Did you start looking for another man after Gama's death? I saw another man in the car, who was he? Your new boyfriend?" Sierra felt offended by Giorgio's question, but Jordan arrived in his sports car before she could answer. He got off with a worried look on his face. "Sierra, you're okay, right? I heard you were hospitalized for
But Giorgio immediately rejected the suggestion. "No, that's not a good idea. We have to find another way." "What kind of other way does that mean?" Audie asked curiously. "Yes, another way, we must demand this in public; with all the evidence we have, then the Featherston family can no longer evade." Giorgio's explanation still needed to be more apparent for Audie and Barbara to digest. Audie looked at Giorgio with a mixed expression. "Public prosecution? Are you serious, Giorgio?" Barbara nodded in agreement with a worried expression. "That could be a risky idea. We must consider all the consequences carefully." Giorgio chuckled in frustration. "It wouldn't be risky; we can pressure them with the public's support. We have to move fast, and one way is to go to the inauguration party." Audie nodded slowly, trying to understand Giorgio's point of view. "But how? Damn, stepmother won't let us come." Audie looked annoyed at his stepmother, Ledy Maheswara. "Jordan, we can ask for he
Lopiuy let out a long sigh as Jordan again asked for matters relating to Sierra. He felt pressured by Jordan's request but also understood the situation's urgency."Lopiuy, I know you feel uncomfortable, but please do this once. It is also for the good of The Featherston Company. Everyone already knows that Sierra is Gama's wife and what would happen if they were not present at the event. I'm afraid people will think badly of it," Jordan said hesitantly.Jordan felt sad for Lopiuy, who looked burdened by his request. However, he also felt confident that Sierra's presence at the event would help maintain the Featherston family's image.Lopiuy nodded slowly, showing that she agreed to Jordan's request, although she felt uncomfortable."Fine, I will do as you wish."Jordan was relieved to see Lopiuy agree to his request despite his hesitation. He knew this was essential in maintaining the Featherston family's image in the public eye."Thank you, Lopiuy. I know this is hard for you, but w
They, the people who were trying to kidnap Sierra, were quite surprised at the arrival of these people. However, with a defiant attitude, they maintained their position."Who are you? You better stay out of our business!" said one of them in a challenging tone.The kidnappers stood their ground, displaying their firmness despite being confronted by a nearby more significant number of people. They didn't seem to be backing down.Sierra grew increasingly frightened, trying to break free despite her futile efforts."You must know who I am," said a man at the back of the crowd trying to free Sierra."Ariston?" the man who was the leader of the kidnappers was quite surprised to see Ariston—the notorious gangster leader of A'ador."After knowing who I am, are you still not going to release her?" Asked Ariston with an intimidating look."No! Do you think I'm afraid of you guys? Not at all. I will not bow down to someone like you, Ariston." The kidnapper leader challenged Ariston even more.A
Yes, you're right. Sierra wasn't involved, but she was the victim! Don't you think I don't know what Lord Featherston did?""I will retaliate if he dares to harm my daughter."After saying that, Aristo left, leaving only Lopiuy to stare at his departure.** In her infirmary, Sierra began to regain consciousness."Where am I?" Sierra asked in a weak voice. Her blurry vision slowly returned to normal. A woman in a white uniform looked at her gently."You're in the hospital, Miss Sierra," replied the nurse gently. "You had an incident, but now you are safe. You are under medical care."Sierra felt a sense of confusion but also relief that she was in a safe place. She tried to recall what happened earlier, but her memory was still hazy."Is she okay?" Aristo, who had just arrived, surprised Sierra."Mr. Aristo," Sierra greeted weakly, trying to brace herself despite still feeling weak. "I'm not sure. But I thank you for helping me. I don't know what would have happened if you had helped
As the party began, all the guests were present. Sierra, wearing a white dress with exposed shoulders and a plunging neckline, was the center of everyone's attention. Guests talked about Sierra's relationship with the Featherston family.Sierra felt uncomfortable with the spotlight focused on her. However, she remained calm and did not show her discomfort openly."Why are they looking at me like this? I'm uncomfortable with this," she complained to herself.Jordan, who noticed her, offered support, "Are you okay?"Trying to calm Jordan down with a fake smile, "Yes, I'm fine."Although relieved to hear Sierra's answer, I was still wary of her feelings. "Thankfully, if you feel uncomfortable, we can leave here.""No, Jordan. I'm fine," she replied. Even though her heart was pounding, she tried to stay where she was.As the event began, Darius walked proudly to meet the guests.Darius looked steady and confident as he spoke to the guests. With an arrogant demeanor, he emphasized his posi
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
