Since the doctor said that Serena's wound had an infection, Barra was getting restless because it was clear that they would not be able to return home tonight. There was nothing to do but wait for the sun to rise. There is a sense of worry that never goes away when you see Serena's body grimacing in pain.

BUGH!!

Suddenly the man's sense of hearing immediately recognized where the source of the sound was just now.

“Serena!! Are you okay?”

"Hey, say something! Open the door or I'll break it down!!” Barra said urging a little worried.

No voice answered his call. Without thinking, the 30-year-old man managed to force open the door of the room occupied by Serena. The view inside made Barra surprised. The former fainted still with the body still wrapped in a towel.

“Serena, wake up!! Are you okay??” says Barra with a slightly raised tone.

Serena's wound infection appears to be severe. The girl began to tremble.

    Two weeks after that heartbreaking event Serena's life back to normal. There is no longer a sad face that is so missed by the GM. As if the girl was ready to storm the storm that would be present in the next life.Serena is no longer assigned to accompany the GM's business partner at the nightclub. Perhaps there was a sense of regret in the heart of the boss when he heard the cause of the death of one of the parents of his former lover. What will he tell Serena?“Is there anything else I should do, Sir?” Serena asked after serving a glass of coffee on the boss's table.“Look at the file over there. Ask Ami what's next on the agenda!”The girl sighed slowly. The more days the attitude of the former increasingly makes her heart beat incoherently. Isn't that fun? Maybe she is in a normal condition now. Deep in her heart, Serena rejected the feeling of love again.“Why are you shaking your head? You won't obey my orders??” Barra who had been focusing on the file in front of him now looked

    The three of them immediately looked toward the source of the voice."What's wrong with you? It seems so happy to see Serena suffering," Tora accused. Before his brother could answer, a woman grabbed Tora's arm. Who else if not Tita, who has officially become his wife."What are you guys talking about?" asked Tita. "Oh, this slut. You're still interested in flirting with someone's husband?" screeched Tita."Watch your language, Tita." Instead of heeding her husband's words, Tita intended to grab Serena's hair. Luckily, Tora managed to brush her off."I have to go now, Fina. I don't want to make a scene at your party. This woman is getting crazy," said Serena who then excused herself.&

    Serena blinked her eyes repeatedly. A shitty assignment that the GM didn't appreciate forced her to spend the night in that luxurious office. There were a few more parts yet to be completed. But her body almost crumbled from missing the night's rest time that should have been put to good use. Now Serena resumed the activities that seemed pointless earlier."I know. He must have made me like this on purpose. Suffering and getting weirder and weirder. Giving me heavy work every day. Humph, thank goodness one month has passed," she monologued. The 28-year-old woman's petite body began to move back and forth. She was fixing the decorations to their original state. While remembering the layout of all the furniture in the room before. At the same time Barra, who was still comfortably in hi

    "Yes. By the way, what are you doing here?" asked Tora who called Serena just now.The girl sighed softly, "Duty from the GM. Delivering a bouquet plus a fruit parcel.""What?" Tora wrinkled his forehead."Never mind. It's a long story if you explain it. In two months I'll be resigning from there too," Serena explained, which made her words even more ambiguous. Realizing that her seniors were still struggling with question marks in their brains, Serena tried to change the subject."I'm sorry, sis. I got carried away with my emotions. Tita doesn't like me very much. She believed the bad rumors she heard," Serena complained.A small chuckle escaped Tora, "Well, obviously she believes it. You're beautiful, sexy, smart. Perfect. It's normal to be called a boss's seductress. But they're all just blabbing. I don't know who you are. You're also annoying to pe

    Barra pushed his hair back. The girl was already lying helplessly on the floor. How stupid of him to not even notice the pale face of her ex from earlier. It wasn't long before David - the assistant GM - was in the room."Call my doctor now!" Barra ordered. David blinked his eyes repeatedly. Making sure that his sense of hearing wasn't compromised in the slightest."Your doctor?""Yes. Hurry up!" Barra was already ruffled at the waist almost in frustration.Serena is really important in the heart of a man like Barra. Did he forget that this hotel has a medical team?' David muttered when he realized that the boss had treated Serena so differently from the start. Ami was even forced to stop her activities because she was accompanying Serena who was sleeping on the

    The doctor frowned for a moment, "Why a DNA test, Sir? A blood test alone can diagnose if the patient has typhoid." Barra almost choked on his saliva. Just because the doctor explained an ambiguous word in the form of a positive statement, the GM then created his alibi. At least he could breathe a sigh of relief that Serena's wish didn't happen."The patient will be hospitalized at least until the examination results return to normal," said the doctor with glasses."Do your best, Doc." After hearing the explanation from the doctor, Barra immediately headed to Serena's room. Ensuring her condition was fine through the special nurse he paid."Let me know the progress of the patient's health. Don't say I told you to," ordered Barra who only allowed his eyes from the doorway."Yes, Sir," said the nurse. The GM looked at Serena who was fast asleep in her room. Somehow in such a weak moment, Barra felt the true character of his ex. Ah, shouldn

    "I mean... Forget what I said earlier," said David who immediately turned his body around. He wanted to ask Serena what she thought of him, but he hesitated again."Nothing is impossible in this world," Serena squealed, raising her voice a little. The assistant GM paused for a moment. Not to turn around, but to think about Serena's words that had been repeated twice. The two corners of his lips immediately formed an arch. Meanwhile, Serena who had just returned to her tiny palace immediately jumped for joy on the bed. She missed the peppermint scent in the room. Yes, the same scent as the perfume owned by the ex who has always lodged in her heart until this moment.*** Just as David sai

  • CRUEL TEMPTATION OF MY EX   109. THE PURPOSE OF MARRIAGE (ENDING)

    Serena looked so graceful wearing a white kebaya with an elegant design wrapped around her body. Mrs. Adhisty led her down the stairs without letting go of her hand. Nervous. That's what the beautiful girl was feeling. She was seated not far from the man who would soon perform the Ijab Kabul in a matter of minutes. Not unlike Serena, Barra didn't even dare to look at his future wife because he was busy remembering the memorization that the committee of the wedding had said earlier. It was clear that he didn't want to repeat his mistake when he made the sacred vows of marriage later. So the GM of Erlangga Hotel chose to look down."How is it? Is there anything else you want to wait for?" asked Mr. Committee of the wedding. Both sides of the bride and groom agreed to start the marriage contract process. Since there was no family from Daddy's side left, a guardian from the government was appointed to mediate. It took a while b

    Short, concise, and clear. That's what Tita said just now. Tora's wife, who was originally rude and selfish, took Serena's hand and led her to touch her slightly bulging belly. "Let's raise this child together, Serena." Serena still didn't move. Her eyes were teary because she didn't know what to say in response to her future sister-in-law's request."You want to, right? This child will have two mothers and fathers. He'll be so happy," Tita murmured."I-yes, Sis," Rena finally replied. Then the two hugged each other to channel their feelings of love between women. Not long after, Barra came to separate them."Hurry up, sweetheart. You'll be late," Barra whispered later.Serena nodded slowly. Her smile was perfect as she descended the escalator that facilitated her steps toward the airline gate. Mrs. Adhisty gently rubbed her arm to give her peace of mind.***["Look here, you can play baseball too!"] Barra now confidently swung his a

    "I trust you with everything.""No, you don't. I want us to take care of it ourselves," Barra broke off, not wanting to hear any argument. "Please, darling!" The puppy eyes and hopeful face of an Adibarra Erlangga made Serena nod while smiling. Inevitably, she moved to unbuckle the seat belt that was still attached to his fiancé's body."Thanks, honey," Barra murmured just as her girl was about to inch back. "Don't want to reply hemm?""No," Serena quickly denied. "We won't get in. Look at Papa standing on the balcony!""Excuses," Barra sneered. Serena seemed to turn off her sense of hearing. She opened the car door immediately. The first sight she saw made her glance lazily. There was Tita, who was sitting in the living room relaxing while enjoying her pregnant milk."Don't mind her. Let's go inside!""No. I'll just go home. It's getting late.""You haven't said goodbye to Papa yet," Barra said, making Serena hesitate. Tita, who saw the

    The beautiful green scenery made Serena's smile perfect. The girl carried her fiancé with her left hand, which carried a basket filled with lunch boxes that she had brought from home. The perfume with the scent of citrus blossom that emanated from the body of Barra's fiancé seemed to blend in with nature. It was refreshing and made the feelings it gave a positive impression."Aunt Cintya's daughter is a top therapist for you. The proof is in the therapy," Serena murmured with a smile."Her voice is like a mosquito. It's shrill and annoying. That's why you can't help but obey," said Barra, who was now raising and lowering her right wrist."If it's not like that, I'm sure you will recover for a long time. If we get married, you'll be able to carry me for photo shoots," said Serena while holding back her laughter."You can. You have to," Barra said with a high level of confidence. "Within the next two months, you'll see your brother back to his old self.""And

    Tora's wife, who felt offended, was about to come forward to attack Sandra, but her steps stopped when she remembered the bitter experience of losing her baby a few months ago."You better focus on pregnancy. Already want to be a mother but her behavior hasn't changed at all," snapped Sandra who immediately disappeared from Tita's sight. Her breath was still hunting until she returned to Jason who was still in his original position. She was so annoyed that she grabbed the man's glass and drank the contents until it was empty."Why?" asked Sandra as she saw Jason's sardonic gaze."You took my glass," sneered the man.Sandra blinked quickly. Then look at his glass glass which is still half full. He felt embarrassed. "Sorry. I'll replace your other glass.""No need," Jason snapped immediately. Inevitably he looked at Sandra who looked like she was exhausted. "Have you been scratching?" he asked later. Sandra did not answer, but her eyes glanced sharp

    Serena immediately turned her head when she heard a knock from outside. She nodded as if giving a code to the team of makeup artists who had just beautified her appearance."You're beautiful," Jason murmured with a smile. "Daddy would be happy if he were here right now.""Yeah. He'd probably stop this show. Especially if Daddy finds out you're marrying the son of his archenemy."That remark made Jason chuckle. "You're such a smartass. Daddy is like that. He would do anything to make you happy. Even when he found out that you were going out with Barra that time."Serena's eyebrows immediately went up one side. Astonished by Jason's words a few seconds ago. Then her foster brother pulled up a chair so he could talk a little longer. Inevitably his eyes directed Serena to do the same."You are always under Daddy's supervision 1x24 hours. Until the moment you crossed over to the orphanage was the last time he hired a secret bodyguard for you.""Forgot? Once you we

    "Don't argue. Or I'll kidnap you right now," Barra muttered with a glint in her eye. "Prepare yourself, darling. The day after tomorrow, our engagement ceremony will be held at the Erlangga Hotel at 7 pm." Afterward, the man gave Serena a brief peck on the cheek and then moved out of the car. Calling Serena's driver before finally waving goodbye with a wink. Having just thrown herself on the bed, the girl was again surprised by a video call from her lover. She smiled perfectly after cleaning up from the event.["Hi, beautiful. What are you doing?"] Serena did not answer. Just showing her row of clean and neat white teeth.["You're cosplaying as a toothpaste commercial, right?"] Suddenly the girl immediately got up from her lying position. Then looked at Barra with a sullen face.["Even if you're angry, you look beautiful. You're still beautiful no matter what."] And there are many more pussycat sentences conveyed by Barra. Se

    The main event of the seven-month thanksgiving for Fina's pregnancy was over. The guests were invited to mingle and taste the dishes that had been provided."Congratulations, Fina. I hope you're healthy until the birth," Serena murmured while gently stroking her best friend's bulging belly. There was a feeling of joy mixed with envy that she was harboring. Meanwhile, Fina, who understood very well how the sad face changed, immediately grasped her hand."My child will be your child too. He will call you Mama too, Serena. It's just a matter of conceiving and giving birth. You will also be considered as his mother," Fina said with tears already welling up. The two of them hugged each other tightly. No one spoke until Fina's husband approached them."I'm jealous of you guys. It's like brother and sister."Fina hurriedly wiped her tears, then gently elbowed her husband's arm. "Our son will have two mothers. Right, Hubby?"Fina's husband, who knew how Serena was, n

    Instead of answering Serena's question, Barra landed a kiss on his beautiful ex's luscious lips. Making the master shocked beyond belief."You!!"Barra kissed Serena. Suddenly, his beautiful girl's tanned eyes widened perfectly. Her lips parted in an attempt to say something, but unfortunately, her tongue was suddenly paralyzed."I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you. So let's get married quickly," Barra muttered later. The girl frowned as she changed her sitting position to straight ahead. No longer facing each other with the ex who had always been able to make her heart beat wildly lately. Meanwhile, Mrs. Adhisty, who was about to call her daughter, also stopped her steps at the doorway. Realizing that the two of them were having a serious conversation, she backed off. Barra moved closer, eroding the distance between them. He no longer cared about his clavicle, which was sore due to the movement of his
