"I don't want to kick you out. But... you should go home after you finish eating," Felicia said.The woman was currently at the dining table. Accompanying Zean who looked starving and ate his food with gusto."You don't have to worry. Aside from eating, I followed you just to make sure you got to this house safely. My men are on their way here," Zean replied. Felicia smiled. After all, having Diego and Zean under the same roof was not a good thing. Besides, Felicia also didn't want Reynold to think anything if the boy suddenly woke up and saw Zean later."When are you planning to tell Edward that Reynold is actually his son?" Zean asked later. "I don't want to talk about that!" Felicia replied curtly."But why? Whether you're going to make up with Edward or not, the fact is that Reynold is Edward's son. You can't deny that, Felicia," Zean reprimanded in a smooth voice. "Yes, I know, but... I'm not ready. I'm really not ready for the risk of what could happen. So please... let's not
"What you have done, only makes your status look lower. With wealth, I can do as I please, manipulate anything, even buy the law. My current throne, of course, won't compare to you who is just an ordinary person. People like you can't do much," Esson explained to Vilia."And... for your information, I've already been imprisoned. Don't worry, it's not as bad as you might imagine. So... I won't be surprised anymore. That is, if you can imprison me. But, unfortunately that's highly unlikely, ha ha ha," Esson added.Vilia was already dealing with the wrong person. Simply reporting the man to the police would have no effect. Vilia had lost! She would not be able to do anything about it now or in the future."Please, forgive me. Please, don't spread the video you've recorded. I will do anything for you. I promise," Vilia said.It was the only thing Vilia could do, begging and offering. And everything depended on Esson's generosity. "Hemmm, alright. Since you seem pitiful, maybe I'll spare
Inside his room, Edward was trying to contact Zean. Since this morning, Edward had been curious about the results of Zean's investigation. Zean had said that she found a bright spot about the accident they had experienced at that time. Edward was naturally curious about the results. But until now, the man was very difficult to contact."Seriously, where did this fool go!" grumbled Edward.Under these circumstances, Edward was usually in a bad mood. Plus he had just gotten a message. A message with a photo of Felicia and Diego holding hands, and Diego holding Reynold in front of Felicia's house."Wow, that's great. They look like a happy family. I should congratulate them. They're playing openly now," Edward grumbled to himself. The man put down his cell phone and sat in silence. His gaze was straight ahead, with fingers tapping the table a few times. Edward didn't question who had sent the message even though he didn't know. To Edward it was all pointless. Even if Edward had known,
Crowded and fun-looking. That's what's currently happening at Felicia's new restaurant that just opened today. The marketing team must have worked really hard that on the first day of opening, people were so enthusiastic. Felicia, Diego and Reynold had just arrived. Felicia was thrilled to see that her hard work had not been in vain. Diego was surprised, he knew Felicia was a great woman. But he could hardly have guessed that she was also good at organizing business. She had transformed a dreary place that few people ever visited into a unique restaurant that looked worth visiting."Oh my God, I can't believe it!" Felicia said excitedly."Wow, you secretly have a hidden talent. It's unbelievable. You didn't even tell me when all this started. You should have told me a long time ago Felicia. I would have helped you," Diego said."That's exactly why I didn't want to tell you. I didn't want you to help me. I want to be able to walk on my own two feet and not rely on you," Felicia repli
Weakness! To the media, Felicia may have belonged to Diego. But to Edward's enemies like Esson, for example, they know very well that Felicia is Edward's weakness.All of this made sense. Zean's sometimes faulty brain could now handle a common thread that linked several events."You! You planned our accident with the excuse of Felicia being hospitalized!" Zean guessed then.Zean wasn't too sure. But if that was the case, of course Esson wouldn't be evasive. He was a person who was blatant enough to hurt someone."Wow, you're even smarter than your boss. Yup... I have no reason to dodge. Why would I cover it up, it's not like it's obvious. I've wanted to kill you for a long time," Esson said. "But... that's too kind. If you hurry up and die, then we won't be able to have any more fun," Esson added later."You really are an asshole," Zean said."You should look in the mirror before you speak. Who is the bigger jerk between us. Don't worry, we still have plenty of time. I'm not the only
Vilia stepped in even deeper. But suddenly, her hand was pulled and her body was carried away. When she turned around, it was Esson who pulled her hand."Esson!" screeched Vilia in a rather soft voice. No, this girl was not surprised to see Esson there. She knew with certainty that there was no way Esson would show up at Felicia's important event. She just still felt a little scared remembering the bad things that had happened last night. In fact, her body was trembling now."Come with me," Esson said briefly and pulled Vilia's hand. Esson led Vilia to another part of the restaurant that was less crowded. Of course, these two people needed privacy to talk about something that must be important. "Let go of me!" commanded Vilia, as she pushed Esson's hand away.Esson gave her a sharp look. The man did let go of Vilia's hand, but then he switched to pulling Vilia's long hair. Until the girl's head was lifted, and her face looked up."Aaarkh, you're hurting me. Let go of me, please!" pl
"Atlanta Company's stock price is rising rapidly!" Zean said as he showed a graph on his cell phone.Edward glanced at it, then turned his face the other way. No wonder! The Atlanta Company did have something interesting going on. When the news of the throne struggle involving the feud between Diego and Edward broke, the company's stock value and success went up even more. "Either the price goes up, or it goes down. To me, there's nothing interesting. It's all about the power struggle," says Edward. "And to be honest, if it wasn't for my father. I would hardly want any of this. I was... just guarding something I was supposed to be guarding. And, my burden grew even more when I finally found out Felicia was friends with Esson," Edward added."Well, I'm sorry to hear that. You have to bear that burden alone. But don't worry. If you get tired, you can donate all your assets and shares to me. I will take good care of them. And I also promise never to send you to Africa," Zean offered so
"You fool! How could you bring Mr. Edward here!" A Doctor was now in front of the nurse who had brought Edward in. He looked very angry and panicked about it."I'm sorry, sir. But... I had no other choice. Mrs. Clarissa keeps calling for Mr. Edward while throwing a tantrum. We had already injected too many sedatives and couldn't take any more risks. So we have no other choice but to contact Mr. Edward," the nurse replied. "Didn't I tell you, contacting Mr. Edward is the last resort if Mr. Jimmy is unreachable!" protested the doctor."That's exactly what happened, sir. We tried to contact Mr. Jimmy. But there was no answer. Contacting Mr. Edward was my last resort.""Aaarkh, you are so good at making excuses. When Mr. Jimmy finds out later, I won't protect you!" grumbled the Doctor.Madame Clarissa's guards had been briefed to never contact Mr. Edward unless it was a really important matter. They also hid the fact that Mr. Jimmy often came there. But after today, there seemed to be s
Felicia slammed the door and ran out of the car as it stopped in front of the hospital."Felicia, slow down!" Vilia shouted at the woman.But Felicia didn't hear her. She just kept running, running without even looking back. There was only one goal. She had to see for herself how Reynold was doing. Meanwhile, Vilia went to park her car. Felicia arrived at the door of the room where Reynold was according to the instructions Edward had given her. And as soon as Felicia opened the door, everyone immediately looked at her. Inside the room were Edward, Zean, Doctor Alvin and of course Reynold. Reynold was currently sitting on the patient's bed. He smiled happily at the arrival of his mother. "Mom!" Reynold shouted to Felicia. Felicia immediately ran over and hugged Reynold tightly. So tightly that the boy was probably having trouble breathing."Oh my God, Reynold. Are you okay? How are you doing now. Tell me which part hurts?" Felicia immediately bombarded Reynold with all sorts of qu
Diego and Reynold had reached their destination. It was a large house that had been neglected and was full of fire damage. Reynold got out of the car and followed Diego fearfully. The little boy thought hard."Didn't Uncle Diego say we were going to his and my father's childhood playground. But why did he bring me here?" Reynold muttered to himself.Reynold stopped following Diego. He didn't want to follow any further as the man walked towards the house.Diego then looked back and saw Reynold had stopped walking. He approached the boy and squatted down in front of him."Why are you doing nothing, Rey?" Diego asked."I don't want to go there, Uncle. I want to go home," Reynold said.Diego smiled at Reynold. His two hands now grasped the boy's shoulders and squeezed so hard that the boy winced in pain."Aaarkh it hurts, Uncle. Let go of me!" said Reynold."You want me to let you go, right?" asked Diego.Reynold nodded quickly."Then you'll keep following me, won't you?" said Diego agai
"You're right! Diego didn't go to the airport!" Zean shrieked. "So where is he now?" asked Edward."Briefly, he's also on the move. But I don't know where he's going," replied Zean. "Then we'll follow where Diego is going. But just in case, tell your men to stay at the airport and keep an eye on the people who are about to board the flight to Paris. We can't let our guard down," Edward ordered."Fine, just leave everything to me. Soon we will find your son," Zean replied.Zean stepped on the gas hard, sending the vehicle speeding through the streets. Armed with Diego's GPS location, they were taken into the hills, far from the city and a bit remote.Along this road, Edward was familiar with the directions and places they passed. All of this seemed to evoke childhood memories that Edward did not want to remember at all.Apparently while driving the car, Zean also noticed Edward's slightly strange demeanor. The man's demeanor was uncharacteristic."Are you okay, Edward?" Zean asked wi
"I still can't believe you hid something this important from me, Zean!" Edward grumbled at Zean.Zean and Edward were currently on their way to the airport to catch up with Diego and Reynold with Zean at the wheel."I didn't hide it. It's because you're so stupid and insensitive. Don't you realize? Although Reynold is also similar to Diego, he is clearly dominant and more similar to you. When I first met Reynold back then, I already knew he was your son in one look," Zean explained at length. "Forget about bonuses or vacations to private islands. You won't get any of that," Edward retorted."Don't worry, I'll book a ticket to Africa by myself later," Zean joked. Edward rolled his eyes and looked the other way. More precisely out the car window. "But you know... it's still like a dream to me. All of a sudden, I have a child. And that child is a big boy now," Edward said. "Do you want me to hit it to prove it's real or a dream?" Zean asked. The airport was quite far from where Zean
"What a surprise that the honorable Mr. Edward would contact Diego. I am truly honored," Diego told Edward over his cell phone. "I'm not playing games with you, Diego. Tell me where Reynold is now. I know you're the father, but taking the boy suddenly without his mother's knowledge is not right. You kidnapped your own son!" Edward said to Diego. Zean and Felicia glanced at each other, the contents of the two people's heads were more or less the same. Edward still misunderstood Reynold. And he said that to Diego, so Edward could be considered a fool by that man."Pffft ha ha ha, oooh gosh. You're so funny. I don't know if you're just funny or stupid!" Diego retorted."It seems like until now, you haven't found the truth at all!" Diego added.Edward, who had wanted to focus on his intention to find Reynold, was now curious. What truth was Diego referring to."Stop joking around and tell me what you mean." Edward spoke seriously. "You think I'm joking? No, not at all. You can ask your
"But after you came back and even brought a child from Diego, I couldn't do anything about my feelings. I want you! My love never went away, I tried to hide it and failed! That's why I'm going to be selfish now to get you back. I'll separate you from Diego and even lock you up from now on if necessary. I also don't care if Reynold is Diego's son. I'll take him too. I will still love him like my own son," Edward continued at length. Wow, this was the longest conversation that had ever come out of Edward's mouth in his entire life. He spoke without stammering or hesitation. It was as smooth as a speech. Felicia was dumbfounded by every word Edward spoke."But, I don't..." "Felicia, do you know where we are right now?" Edward asked when Felicia hadn't finished speaking.Felicia then shook her head. She really didn't know where she was at the moment."We're in the hotel room where we first stayed. Do you remember?" A memory of their past was now spinning in Felicia's mind. She looked a
"Congratulations on your victory," Zean said as he flirtatiously winked at Edward. "I haven't won yet. Who told you that lie," Edward retorted."You already have everything. What else do you have to be afraid of. Mr. Jimmy's already lost, yeah! And now you just have to continue your business with Felicia that was delayed," Zean explained. "But... I don't know if she'll accept you or hate you later if she wakes up still bound like that," Zean added, pointing at Felicia.Felicia was still unconscious. She was sitting and tied to a chair with her eyes covered with a black cloth. In front of her was a table with unlit romantic candles. And not far beside Felicia was a bed with a bed of red and white roses that formed a word of love so beautifully and in such a way. "Eeehm, no. I think all women like surprises," Edward replied confidently."Now, it's time for you to leave before Felicia wakes up. I don't want you to be the first person she sees when she takes the blindfold off!" protest
Diego starts telling Felicia all about Mr. Jimmy. He tells Felicia about how Mr. Jimmy will target her because she is a weakness for Edward. Diego also tells Felicia that Reynold is not a secret. Mr. Jimmy knew that Reynold was Edward's son. And Diego also told Felicia all his foul plans with Mr. Jimmy who wanted to destroy Edward.Diego told Felicia almost everything and the dark side of what he had done with Mr. Jimmy so far. Except about Esson. Diego had his own reasons for not telling Felicia about Esson."Wow, this is amazing," Felicia said."I knew you wouldn't believe this. But the truth is, I'm not a good person. And I'm also..." "No, not that part. I've always known that you and Edward had problems!" Felicia interrupted with a hint of emotion.Diego frowned, Felicia's response was hardly what he expected."What do you mean?" said Diego."All those years you were used by Mr. Jimmy to be his puppet. But you didn't realize all that? Mr. Jimmy didn't love you. He just used you.
"Mr. Edward Collins Harvey officially announces the ownership of the Atlanta Company's assets and shares. As the largest shareholder of a giant company like Atlanta, Edward Collins Harvey will crack down on all forms of fraud and blah blah blah!" Felicia read the latest news about Edward Collins Harvey that had accidentally appeared on the homepage of her social media app."Mr. Edward will also officially announce who his secret wife is, which has always been a public question. The mass media is busy and curious. This news had sunk some time ago. But its appearance now is eagerly awaited. " And Felicia read the news silently. Felicia turned off her cell phone and sighed softly. After a long time, Edward finally appeared in the news again. And this time, the man said that he would reveal the identity of his secret wife from the past. Felicia thought it was completely useless. How could Edward reveal her identity after they were no longer in a relationship. "She's such a bitch!" grum
