2024-10-29 19:42:56Nothing changed in Austin's life afterward. Everything remained as normal as it could be, but one thing made him feel like he was stepping into a wide-open space. No longer feeling cramped, and a lot of his burdens seemed to lift. He entered the Goojoo Enterprise building with light steps and a whistle, signaling he was in the best mood.
Occasionally, he responds to greetings from employees scattered across several divisions. Most of them, Fabian barely knew. Wearing the Goojoo Enterprise badge, Fabian assumed they were his subordinates.
Ignoring a few whispers, he heard while heading to the room on the twenty-fifth floor. Was there something off about his behavior this morning? Let Austin think for a moment. Ah... it's probably because he softened the stern expression he usually wore there. Replacing it with a slight smile and greeting.
But was that weird? When a boss greeted their employees?
Never mind. There were many things Austin had to think about r

Fabian's car stops right at the neatly maintained simple house. The lights around the garden and the main house aren't on. Obviously because the new owner just returned, and Fabian gave her a lift. The click of the seat belt in the passenger's seat signals that Fabian's offer has hit rock bottom.Throughout his persuasion, Jane remains unmoved. Everything's rejected, even the highest payment Fabian could offer, Jane's not interested."I don't want fame or fun stuff you can offer, Fabian. Seriously. This is my deepest heart's answer. After you know who I am, you should also understand why I choose this.""Oh God!" Fabian sighs, frustrated, rubbing his face. "You're really stubborn.""Thank you for noticing. So... I consider this our last meeting. Among the three models you favor, the only one who might fit is Giselle. I think you know what to do." Jane gives a slight smile. She pulls the car door lever, but... "The door, please."There's nothing Fab

Maria stared at the finished dishes she had just prepared. Occasionally, she inquired with the main gate security guard, asking if the family guests had arrived. Maria never expected that the woman would truly show her presence here. In reality, Maria didn't want to prepare any dishes, but she realized her position here was only that of the head servant. She was responsible for taking care of all the needs in this grand house, especially the feasts."They're here!"Luckily, the glasses Maria was arranging didn't slip from her grip. She gently rubbed her chest, instructing some of the servants to be ready to serve well, even if it was with half a heart. The first time she met the beautiful woman, Maria felt a sense of sympathy. The love story with her master had to end due to a marriage arranged by the grand master. Maria thought that the woman bearing the status of Mrs. Don Austin William was just seizing the opportunity. Unfortunately, as time passed, that assumption

Calysta ate calmly, tasting everything in front of her and occasionally commenting. She'd chat with Austin beside her, sometimes helping him pick certain dishes. The dining room felt like her domain. Oh, and don't forget to be as sweet as possible to Katherine Don William, who Calysta didn't expect to greet her. But for Calysta, it didn't matter if the middle-aged woman didn't welcome her. Her focus tonight was spending time with Austin in this house, silently declaring her intention to take Jane's place here.Her buried desire, dismissed when Austin carelessly agreed to his father's absurd request, now blazes within her. The fire intensifies because the warm-smiling man in front of her doesn't let her go easily. It gives Calysta her own conviction that the time will come when she fulfills her goal."The cooks here are so skilled," praises Calysta with a honey-sweet smile. "I love all the dishes tonight." She gently wipes the corner of her lips with the soft cloth avai

Jane dried her hands after finishing up. Assisted by Harley in tidying up the slightly messy kitchen area, they all could sit back and enjoy the passing day. Even though Jane could handle it alone, the girl she barely knew for a day didn't hesitate to get involved in the kitchen sink.She said, "You've prepared us a delicious breakfast. Lunch made us reluctant to leave the couch. Do you really think I can't do more than just washing dishes?"Not only Harvey but Giselle and Ursula also share the same tasks. Jane ran out of words to refuse and asked them to sit still."We need to move a lot, Olive," Giselle retorts with a hearty laugh. In her hand was a vacuum cleaner ready to clean the dirt on the living room floor.While Ursula argued, "I need to burn off the calories that just entered this body. Blame Olive for serving such delicious beef teriyaki today."Alright, they are all stubborn, but they warm Jane's heart uncontrollably. As a return for th

"Please enjoy," says Jane as she hands over cups of tea and coffee to her guests. She didn't expect today's visit to raise so many questions for her."You look healthy, Jane." The middle-aged woman sitting in front of Jane smiles warmly. Since getting out of the car, her eyes haven't shifted from Jane. She's very relieved to find Jane in good shape."Thank God, I'm all good. How about Mom? Taking meds regularly, right? I told Maria to keep an eye on the meds and vitamins."Kate smiles even wider, while her son grumbles uncomfortably. His face turns away abruptly. Austin's visible annoyance is clear as day."I originally didn't have any desire to live more—""Mom," Austin interrupts swiftly. "I agreed to meet Jane at your request, but not to engage in nonsense talk." He gets up from his seat and chooses to distance himself from everyone. His peripheral vision still focused on a specific point.The man who since arriving at this house ha

"I didn't expect you to move on so quickly with someone else."Jane almost dropped the plate she had just finished washing. She never anticipated a time when she would be alone with the man who didn't want to see her anymore. Though... it's tough. Since his arrival, Jane has been keeping her distance, avoiding direct interaction. Occasionally, she just responds with superficial chatter.The beautiful woman tries to compose herself. She can't let herself be affected by his presence. Through the corner of her eye, she notices that he's not far from her, just behind her back. The small kitchen and the arrangement of furniture, so different from her previous home, make their proximity uncomfortably close."What do you need?" Jane asks, trying to keep herself calm. She mustn't let her hands tremble, even though her heart keeps praying for Austin to leave her alone soon.The intimidation Austin imposes on her life makes it hard for Jane to forget that he has no

On the way home, Kate didn't talk much. She kept her gaze forward, occasionally enjoying the nighttime drive. Sometimes, they got stuck in a bit of traffic in some central spots, but it didn't last long. Otherwise, their journey back to Don William's residence went smoothly."I hope this is the first and last visit to Jane's house, Mom," Austin says, adjusting his seat. He's been wanting to talk since earlier but was interrupted by numerous messages from Calysta. She's making him impatient to see her soon."Are you forbidding your mom from having a relationship with someone else?" Kate glances at her prideful son. There's a frustration and anger she can't easily express."Mommy can have a relationship with someone else as long as it's not Jane," says Austin firmly. "Instead of wasting unnecessary time with Jane, why doesn't Mommy try to get closer to my future wife?"Kate's stomach feels tied up in a long, tight knot. Strong and suffocating. "What do you

Fabian grinned widely after once again, going through each page of the contract that had just been signed. His dreams were coming true. He could predict it, but finding the approval signature from the person willing to carry Lavender, it's just so delightful. The euphoria reminded him of what he did with Ursula, Giselle, and Harvey. Just like when he got their approval, the joy that enveloped his heart, everything in his mind and strategic plans, realized and... Boom! They all received such a fantastic reception. His instincts as an art performer rarely missed. That's why when Jane agreed, he was sure this year's show would belong to SEO Fashion. Closed very well, and Fabian also felt like his four pillars were standing. Not standing completely, well, because one of them he'd just started to train to stand up against the world. "You look so happy, Boss." One of the finance division staff entered the room, carrying some documents that needed Fabian's signature

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."

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
