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
"Stop it!" Everyone turned their heads towards the source of the voice as Lopiuy safely stood there. "You? Why are you here?" Darius was quite surprised to see."Why are you surprised to see me safe?" The day before the event began, Darius overheard Lord Peterson's plan to bequeath to someone who did not know who he was. Darius got angry and stabbed Lord Featherston but was saved by Lopiuy. There was a fight that left Lopiuy shot in the stomach. His condition was critical, but he managed to go in one night.The existence of Lord Featherston, who was locked up in an abandoned warehouse, was also successfully rescued by Aristo's men at Lopiuy's request.A surprise also came for Game, who woke up from his coma and is now there with them.Sierra couldn't contain her emotions when Gama arrived. She ran to embrace Agama but was stopped by Darius, who leaned on her."Don't anyone dare sell her, or I'll kill her and the baby in her womb." Darius' threat was enough to make Game feel anxio
"Do you think I'm a fool for giving you what shouldn't be yours? You'd better double-check the contents of that agreement letter." Gama said in a calm yet sharp manner.a calm yet sharp demeanor. Darius was silent for a moment, seemingly surprised by Gama's words."You dare to say that, Gama?" Darius looked at him with a sharp gaze, trying to hide his confusion."Gama, what do you mean?" Lady Maheswara intervened, trying to ease the tension in the room.Gama only smiled faintly, before answering calmly, "I'm just reminding you to double-check the contents of the letter of agreement carefully, Darius. There might be something I missed that will change the situation."The invited guests began to speculate, trying to digest what was happening before them. But their noise was soon cut short by Darius."All of you, shut up!" he shouted with anger on his face. "This is my show and I will not tolerate any chaos."The atmosphere was tense in the room, and all eyes were on Darius, waiting for
Slowly, Sierra opened her eyes and found herself alone in bed. She felt a deep sense of disappointment and regret creep into her heart as she realized that her encounter with Gama was just a dream.She sighed heavily, trying to overcome the disappointment and loss that swept over her. The dream had brought her a moment of happiness, only to be confronted with the harsh reality that Gama was not by her side.Sierra let herself collapse on the bed, letting her emotions overwhelm her. Although it was only a dream, her disappointment and regret felt real. She realized that some of her still hoped to meet Gama in the real world, even if only in a dream."Are you awake?" Asked a person. Hearing a familiar voice surprised her, and when she turned her head, she saw Gama standing in the doorway with a tray and soup bowl on top of her."Gama?" she exclaimed with a mixture of happiness and astonishment. Without hesitation, Sierra ran over to him to hug him. However, before she could touch him,
"Gama, Ayala is here because her parents left her with us. You should treat her well in public; don't let her down," Lord Featherston said in a stern voice as the two sat at the dining table enjoying breakfast together.Gama listened to the reprimand well. Nervously, she replied, "I'm sorry, Grandfather. I understand, but I want to make sure Sierra is comfortable as well." There was a hint of disappointment in his voice, though he tried to hide it.Lord Featherston gave Gama a sharp look, scrutinizing every expression on his face. "You must separate your personal affairs from your obligations as a member of this family, Gama," he admonished sternly. "The welfare of the family is our top priority; do not forget that."Gama stared at Lord Featherston with an astonished expression that was hard to hide. "What kind of obligation are you referring to? My only obligation is to make Sierra happy, nothing more," Gama asked in a firm voice, trying to emphasize his priorities.Lord Featherston
"That's easy enough; you should divorce him." Lord Featherston's stern question that came out of the blue came as quite a shock to Sierra. She had not expected Lord Featherston to file for divorce so soon. Hesitant and worried, Sierra tried to answer, "But, Grandfather, we love each other; there is no way that can happen. Lord Featherston looked at Sierra seriously before replying, "Love? What kind of love are you referring to? Do you think I don't know how you and your family treat my grandson? Just because he is poor, you and your family insult and demean him." Sierra could not deny that what Lord Featherston said was true and a big mistake. "I'm sorry, Grandpa. I know I was wrong, and I will do what I can to make you forgive me." "There is only one thing I want from you: you must divorce Gama and abort your baby," "What? Abort? I can't possibly do that, Grandpa. It's Gama's child, your grandchild!" "I don't care; I don't want my family's blood flowing in the blood of hypo
Sierra picked up the phone with a smile on her face. "Hello, Gama."However, her smile soon faded as she heard the voice on the other end. "It's mom, not Gama. Where is she?" The voice on the other end sounded worried.And she quickly explained calmly, "Mom, there's nothing wrong. Gama is at the hospital; Ayala fell down the stairs."But Audie's worries became more real, fearing the worst for her daughter, "Falling down the stairs? Why is that? Did you do it?"Hearing the accusation, Sierra quickly denied it, "No, Mom. I didn't do anything. Ayala fell by herself, but...""But what? Tell mom. Is she blaming you? Bullying you? If so, let me know. I'll handle it!" Audie was getting angry, knowing her daughter was getting the short end of the stick there.Sierra tried to calm her mother down, "Never mind, Mom. There's no need to make a big deal out of it. I'm fine; Gama is here to protect me."But her mother's concern was still great, and she couldn't just let it go."You can't do that. Y
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
