"You look like shit, Calysta," greeted Samantha as she walked into her assistant's office. the woman's bags under her eyes were clearly visible. Not to mention that her face couldn't mask her irritation. Is Yookie's problem that big?

Since there was no answer from Calysta-she seemed to be busy with her cell phone-Samantha finally asked again. "What happened at Yookie's?"

"My uncle was taken by the police."

Samantha was wide-eyed with disbelief. "How?" She pulled up a chair. "Tell me what the problem is."

Calysta let out a long sigh, but then she told the story of what happened yesterday. Complete with her difficulty in finding a lawyer. Because lest she put her trust in the wrong person, the lawyer could bring them to a standstill.

"Oh my God!" Samantha covered her mouth. "This can't be allowed. Why didn't you give me any news?"

Calysta massaged her forehead immediately. "I'm too messed up and don't know how to think straight, Auntie."

    Hans stumbled into Fabian's office. He didn't want to nod to the boss who was working on the design for next season's show, but what he wanted to say was very important. Don't let the boss know after everything is chaotic and uncontrollable."Boss," he called without hesitating to open the door to Fabian's room. Which made the owner growl in annoyance."You made me cross out this design, Hans!" snapped Fabian with an annoyed look."I'm sorry," Hans said with an apologetic look. "There's something you should know." He handed over the tablet that still had the news about one of SEO's famous models. As far as Hans knew, Fabian was very protective of the people who worked under his leadership. Especially the four pillars of SEO. Everyone knows that.That's why as soon as there was news mentioning Jane, Hans was in a panic.The tablet had already changed hands. Fabian slightly pushed aside the work he was concentrating on. His eyes were immediately draw

    Of all the plans he had made for his own personal gain, why was nothing going right? There was only one thing that comforted him; the news that had surfaced and started dragging his name. It was what she wanted the most but if it was made in a state of confusion like this, wouldn't the victory be meaningless?"Auntie, what about the lawyer for my uncle?" asked Calysta as soon as Samantha started to calm down. It was nothing, ever since the phone call from Keith was cut off, Samantha started to panic. She was babbling while occasionally swearing."If Keith drags me into the law, that means I'll have to deal with Goojoo, Calysta," she said as she ruffled her once neat hair. "No, that's a nightmare." She covered her face in frustration. "I need to find a way to solve my problem." Right, there was no time to stay idle like this. lest Keith realize his words.Ask for a refund of the funds that have already come in, even if it's not the full amount. But what about the

    Although Kate was able to predict this kind of cheap news, she still followed the developments. In addition, she also monitored reports from Danisa jug Winnie. Especially the case where Calysta needed a lawyer for her uncle. She didn't know what kind of problem Calysta's uncle was involved in, but it seemed quite serious."You can rest assured, most of us won't be doing Calysta any favors. We still appreciate you," Danisa said on the other end of the line just after breakfast was over. This morning, neither Calysta nor her son were there. It wasn't that Kate didn't want to know, but it seemed like they had different things to do.Her heart could only pray that Austin wouldn't do anything strange while they were finishing their business."Thank you, Danisa. I don't know what to say for now."On the other end, Danisa laughed. "We've missed our time with you, Kate. When will we get together again? I'm getting too sick of having Calysta in our group."

    Before Austin knew it, his Calysta had changed. He fell in love with the person in front of him. I don't know what turned Calysta into a very different person than Austin had ever known. So different that Austin felt the woman in front of him was no longer the woman he loved."What is your purpose?" The man began to pace slowly, getting closer to Calysta who was still standing where she was. "You want Goojoo destroyed?" There was no answer from Calysta. So once again, Austin asked, "Enrich yourself and help people who are actually excluded from this family?"Calysta was still the same; silent."ANSWER!!!"The woman shook her head in shock. Her eyes were wide open. Even her body trembled with fear because Austin's voice was so dominating. "I don't want to see Goojoo standing still. It's your mother's precious treasure, right? You're just the manager, Austin. But the original owner is still your mother."The man blinked slowly. "That's what you want?

    Kate stared at the woman she was supposed to love as a daughter-in-law. Try as she might, her heart could not. Calysta was just another person in this family. It's not that she doesn't deserve to be around Austin, but look at what she's done to her son. Maybe if she behaved normally like a normal wife, Kate wouldn't have a problem. Maybe her blessings and affection would come over time.Isn't it normal that dislike begins to melt over time? But what happened was that the dislike became even more entrenched because of the daughter-in-law's unreasonable attitude. Maybe if what Calysta did was only directed at her, Kate would still be able to tolerate it. But what Calysta did was beyond her comprehension.How could that woman orchestrate such a cunning way to make their family's support collapse?Meanwhile, Calysta managed to keep her breath from coming in short gasps. She had not yet lowered her displeased gaze to the middle-aged woman nearby. She would not easily

    Calysta did not want to leave even after the words that were still ringing in her ears. She was asked to leave this house? Divorce? No-no. This could not happen to her. And to add insult to injury, all the things she had done that were pressuring and straining her were not being ignored by Austin."No," Calysta grabbed her hair with her eyes darting around. Her head was constantly spinning whether it was what happened with her uncle, the conversation with Samantha, Kate's confession, or Austin's treatment of her. Not just tonight, but the nights and days where Calysta felt... she was happy.Being treated as well as possible by Austin, always coming first in that man's life over anything else, shouldn't Calysta have realized that Austin's words of love were no joke? Despite that, she let her misplaced heartache dominate her mind."Madam," Poppie called out while trembling slightly in fear. Her eyes occasionally glanced at the big lady watching her at the top of t

    "Austin hasn't come out of his room yet?" asked Kate as she sipped the hot tea Maria had made. Breakfast this morning was very, very different from usual. She was accompanied only by the servants who were always ready and waiting for her orders."Not yet, ma'am."Kate nodded briefly. Her tail flicked over to Poppie who stood just around the corner, looking down as she wrung the hem of her dress. "How is it, Calysta?"If it had to do with Calysta, then it was Poppie's responsibility. She quickly raised her gaze, looking at the owner of the house despite her nervousness. In the back of her mind, if Kate's kindness was no longer there, she might have returned home last night. Accompanied by regret and confusion, where to find a job again because in the current situation, it was difficult to find a replacement job quickly."Thank God, her condition is gradually improving. At seven o'clock I'm preparing to go back to the hospital to bring her things. I've also

    Calysta woke up with a weak body and a dizzy feeling that was truly excruciating. But the most devastating thing was that when she opened her eyes, there was no one around her. There was only an IV bag and the room was completely silent except for the sound of the cooling machine and the TV that seemed to have been turned on deliberately."Here I am," she sighed softly. Trying to get up from her uncomfortable slump. "Ugh," she complained as she massaged her temples. "What's wrong with me, anyway?" Her memory began to fill her dizzy head. Starting to remember what happened to her life in the twenty-four hours before she ended up in the hospital bed.Everything began to organize into pieces that Calysta could remember clearly. It made her chest tighten and her head throb even more. "I... I still can't believe that the one who made my mother suffer was...," She looked down while gently tugging at her already messy hair. She didn't care about her appearance anymore. All sh

    Jane tightened the coat she was wearing a little. The road she was walking on was a little slippery, even though she was wearing boots and watching her step, she still had to be very careful. The air around her dropped a few degrees from what she expected."Are you okay?" asked Fabian as he fixed the scarf Jane was wearing."That question is for you, Fabian." Jane chuckled. Fabian's face was already very red from the cold that hit them."You're really out of your depth when it comes to the place you'd most like to visit." Fabian spluttered. Rubbing his hands even though he was wearing gloves."But this place is exotic, right?"Fabian could not disagree with Jane's words just now. Especially seeing the twinkle that wouldn't leave since they arrived at the airport closest to this place. no. not close, but within reach of the place where they spent their days and time together after becoming husband and wife.The trip to Tibet was tiring but Ja

    Jane couldn't help but laugh. "Forgive Fabian then.""No!" Rosalyn shook her head. "After you are married, you must stay at our house. There's a lot we want to hear about your relationship. Oh, my God! Fabian was really testing my patience. Why else would Zephyr have such a troublesome brother like Fabian!"The woman wasn't really angry. Just grumbling about her brother's behavior which she thought was a bit out of line. More than anything, Rosalyn was happy and touched. There was nothing she could do but wish them both happiness. Although the relationship between her husband and Fabian was not blood, couldn't a brotherhood be formed because of the setting? After all, Zephyr's affection for Fabian was not a trivial matter.Rosalyn realized that."We will definitely visit often, Ros. I promise. I'll make Fabian obey me in visiting you."Rosalyn smiled brightly. "Ah..." she felt like pulling Jane into her arms but it was impossible. She might get ang

    "Quiet look on your face, Olive," Ursula said casually, but at least this redheaded woman's arrival came with the mineral bottle Jane needed."Hey, you're talking out of your ass," Harvey retorted with a disapproving glint in his eye. It's so representative of Jane's expression that he has to keep his smile and the outfit he's wearing this afternoon. He wants to talk a lot but the tension that's engulfing him doesn't go away easily."Did you forget how tense you were before the ceremony to legalize marriage?" Harvey spoke again with a look that had not been released from Ursula. The insinuated one, meanwhile, just shrugged her shoulders without feeling guilty. His hand skillfully unscrewed the bottle cap and handed it to Jane.As she said, "Drink first, relieve the tension. It's even more tense in front of the priest. You're about to take your vows for life with Fabian. You know, that's the moment when you have to convince your heart whether you can live togethe

    Austin stared for a long time at the cell phone that displayed news about his ex-wife. Many things had apparently been accomplished by the woman who once lived with him in the big house that was now much quieter. Not wanting any regrets, Austin chose to put the phone back in the drawer.Their last meeting, although it left quite a deep impression on Austin, still wouldn't change anything. everything that had happened, could not be regretted more deeply. It was useless. He also didn't want to dwell on what was present in his life. He had to keep going, right? There was no way he could stay in the same spot while lamenting why he could be so stupid as to give a judgment?"You deserve real happiness, not a false one that ends horribly when you're with me, Jane." Austin let out a long sigh. His eyes were firmly closed with his hands clenched. He shook his head softly as his mind suddenly replayed the memory of his ex-wife's presence in the house."At least God is st

    "How was your honeymoon?" asked Giselle without any awkwardness. She was being helped to wear a peach-colored dress that wrapped her body gracefully. On the back, there was a large, well-embroidered ribbon decorated with beautiful maple leaves."Do I have to tell you in detail?" Ursula gave Harvey an ignorant glance. "You must be curious, right, Harvey?"The girl who was wearing brocade gloves just chuckled. Her eyes looked at Ursula through the reflection of the large mirror in front of her. "Aren't you the one who requested special teaching from me because you have no experience?"Ursula spluttered but then, looked up as if she was already an expert in the matter they were talking about. "But I can honestly say, I didn't use any of your advice."Harvey stuck out his tongue. "How could I!""Ask Richard directly how I acted in front of him.""I don't think it was Richard who pounced on Sula. It was the other way around." Giselle had finished

    "Looks like he's busy with his cell phone." Brina giggled in the doorway of Giselle's room. Jane stood not far from her. In her hand was a tray of chicken soup and porridge that she had made for Giselle.Hoping that the girl's appetite would return and her health would gradually improve. But it seemed, from the slight crack in Giselle's door that was not closed tightly, it could already be seen that Giselle was fine.Minus her pretty face scowling with eyes focused on the cell phone."But if you wait outside, Giselle won't eat this soup." Jane smiled slightly and knocked lightly on Giselle's bedroom door. Suddenly, the girl was slightly startled and hid her cell phone.Just like a teenage girl who was caught doing something. But so be it. As long as nothing made Giselle sad or disappointed, Jane was happy."I hope you like my cooking."Giselle smiled widely. "When would I turn it down." She prepared to sit on the back of the bed. The blanket

    "I just want to go home," Giselle said in a low tone but her eyes were full of pleading. Which made Jane sigh repeatedly. I don't know how many times she shook her head with excuses, but none of Jane's words were heard by Giselle."Until your IV bag runs out, Giselle. The doctor is very tolerant of that." Harvey spoke this time. There was an unspoken but clearly audible final tone that made Giselle look away."You're so stubborn!" Harvey scowled. He was getting a bit annoyed with Giselle's childish behavior this time. It was much more troublesome with Giselle's unreasonable behavior than Ursula's indulgence that sometimes made him uneasy.Brina, who had been accompanying Giselle, could only remain silent. It also seemed like she had given up on giving many words to the beautiful girl who was lying weak."Can you leave us alone?" asked Jane which made them all look at her in surprise. Which Jane greeted with a warm smile. "I want to talk to Giselle. You do

    As the grand show approached, there was nothing much Jane could do. The four pillars of SEO were specially asked to participate in the event to commemorate SEO's eighth anniversary. For most people who are familiar with SEO's signature clothing pieces, this event is highly anticipated. Because there will be many surprises given by Fabian there.Including special discounts for the purchase of certain items.Who wouldn't be tempted? Plus being able to attend the event, which for this year opened up a much wider reach."The concept is really good," says Giselle as she enjoys Jane's fruit jelly. The trip to Long Island and then to Milan and back to the city center where she lives was quite draining. She felt like her body could collapse at any moment. And it also felt like she had a queasy stomach.The effects of a long trip were quite miserable for Giselle."You'd better get some rest, Giselle." Jane approached as she set down the cup of tea she had j

    The wedding party, which was predicted to be the most luxurious party of the year, was very well organized. Not many problems occurred because Ursula hired the services of a leading WO and was known for her very high-flying hours at major celebrity events. This includes officials and influential people living in the country.The red-haired girl's smile was beautiful as she accompanied all the events that took place a few hours after the sacred vows between them were lovingly exchanged."I don't know who's lucky to get who," Harvey says, wiping the corners of his eyes. Beside him sat Giselle and Jane. He was in the middle of his two friends. Not only her, but her two friends also seemed to be moved by the bond that was now in Ursula's life."They're both lucky, Harvey," Giselle said with a big smile. "I'm so happy today to witness the beginning of Sula's happiness.""You're right." Jane chimed in. "I pray they are always blessed with happiness.""Ca
