"Stupid Dominik!" cursed Adine with her chest tight with anger. "How can the kitchen be like this? More work for me."

Adine strode off angrily. She was picking up utensils and leftover vegetables scattered on the floor. She couldn't get over the fact that Dominik was a slob despite his handsome face.

"Adine, why are you shouting?" Dominik hurriedly followed Adine into the kitchen at a half-run.

His steps stopped at the threshold of the kitchen door; his breathing seemed to stop for a moment. Dominik saw Adine picking up the things she had used the previous night for cooking while her luscious lips grumbled incoherently.

"You're such a slob!" Adine suddenly looked at Dominik with a cold gaze.

"Oh...yeah, I forgot last night." Dominik made an excuse while scratching his hair that was not itchy. "I was in a hurry because I didn't want you to be late for your medicine."

Adine froze, and suddenly, her chest rippled. She did not realise the male lion was already in front of her.

    "It looks like what Adine said was right; Rico and Laura must have applied for cooperation with Dominik's company. Duh, seriously, Laura is a snake woman, I'm sure she must be trying to trap Mr Dominik." Monica did not stop grumbling down the hallway after her feet had just stepped on the floor after getting out of the lift.Her mouth stopped when she saw a strapping figure before Adine's apartment door. Her steps were slow as she eyed the figure there."It's that annoying bodyguard," Monica muttered curtly. Her steps quickened again, and she quickly approached."Aren't you tired of standing here?" Monica asked in a nosy tone.Willy only glanced at Monica's figure; perhaps because she was equally annoying, she looked away again."Eh...instead of being ignored, I want to meet your lady!" snapped Monica. "If you don't move, how can I get in?"Willy only had a flat expression; he knocked on the door of Adine's room. While Monica spluttered with annoyance, she could also be alone without

    "Adine, aren't you planning to reveal your secrets to Dominik?" Monica asked in between their lunch at the dining table.Adine stopped chewing; she realized she couldn't keep everything to herself forever."I know, someday I will open up," Adine replied. "But not right now, if Dominik gets angry, my plans will be ruined. Father's treatment has only just begun.""I'm just warning you, don't let Laura come back to take what you have again!" This time, Monica glared at her best friend.Adine also understood who Dominik was, a man who was quickly seduced by beautiful women with body goals. She also understood that Dominik was not a stupid man."You don't have to worry; I'll remember your message, Monic," Adine said with a gaze that seemed to burn like a fire that served as encouragement.Adine reached for her mobile phone in between bites of lunch. She didn't want to care about what Dominik would do but wouldn't stay silent if Laura approached the man.Adine: "Are you coming tonight?"The

    "Who's calling like they're possessed in the morning!" Adine ran from the walk-in closet to her room while grumbling.Adine rushed to the nightstand and grabbed the mobile phone lying there. She frowned at the identity on the screen."Hello, Mrs Nita, I'll be there in a minute," Adine said to the person on the other side.["Adine, can you come here soon?"]From the tone of the woman called Nita, there was a tone of concern."What's wrong, Mum? Did something happen to father?" Adine started to worry about what happened.["Adine, I can't keep preventing it..."]"What do you mean, Mum?" said Adine quickly. "I beg you, don't speak halfway, Mum." Adine's chest began to pound; she was afraid something would happen to her father.["Mrs Melisa came here and forced Mr Michael to sign something."]Adine seemed to go limp, her chest was hit by something really heavy. She staggered for a moment, imagining what that demonic woman had done to her father."Please block me first. Don't let me sign an

    "Have a seat, Adine." Doctor Maria invited the woman to sit on the chair before her office.The small room dominated by light green walls and posters of human organs made Adine quite comfortable.Doctor Maria pulled out a drawer under her desk. She took out two long white envelopes from there."These are the results of the last fertility test that you haven't had time to take," said Maria as she handed the envelopes to Adine.For some reason, Adine's heart rate monitor was pounding so much that if she had listened to it through a stethoscope, she would have immediately put away the heart rate monitor.Adine looked at Doctor Maria doubtfully. The beautiful doctor frowned and then smiled. Perhaps the doctor already understood what the woman in front of her was thinking.Finally, with trembling hands, Adine reached for the white envelope with the results of the fertility test she had done with Rico."You don't need to worry, there's nothing wrong with your fertility."

    "Good afternoon, everyone." The sound of greetings from someone broke the focus of Monica and Adine enjoying their lunch."Have a seat and please explain everything to Adine," Monica said.The tall man with his trademark fedora hat and bluecromic glasses immediately pulled up a chair and settled down."Let's have lunch first," Monica said."No, Ma'am, I can't stay long, I just want to deliver this," said the man as he pulled something from his bag.A certificate of ownership of a house with a distinctive tosca green color with a blue garuda embossed stamp was placed on the table.Adine could hardly believe what she saw; she immediately picked up the certificate with a large inscription that the National Land Agency had issued."Is that the certificate of your late grandfather's house that was passed down to your father?" Monica asked.The atmosphere was so dramatic that Adine hugged the certificate with teary eyes. She opened the pages that still bore her father's name."No one can ta

    "Miss, is your mobile phone off?" Willy's question made Adine forget to wear her safety belt.Adine hurriedly reached for her mobile phone in her clutch bag; it was true what Willy said, her mobile phone was off."I forgot to charge my phone," Adine replied sadly. "Your master must have been trying to contact me.""One moment, Miss." Willy reached for the mobile phone in his coat pocket, pressing the speed dial to Dominik's number.The burly, expressionless man immediately handed the mobile phone to Adine, who was beside him.["Where?"] The voice on the other side instantly made Adine move the mobile phone away from her ear."I'm heading home from lunch with Monica," Adine replied.["What's wrong with your phone? Did you switch it off on purpose?"]"I forgot to charge it. I didn't know it was switched off," Adine replied with annoyance.["Go home and rest! I'm not coming tonight."]Adine squeaked a little, not because she was hurt that Dominik wasn't paying attention to her anymore, b

    "Dominik!" Adine glared at the man who was cool with what had been done to the bully.No! Adine was not worried about Laura's safety but more selfish than that; if something bad happened with that sneaky woman, it was too easy.Adine wanted more; she wanted Laura to feel what had been done to her. In other words, Adine wanted Laura and Rico to fall together.Dominik didn't move; he was watching Adine intently. Suddenly, the look in his caramel irises made her uncomfortable.Adine looked away, trying to cover her nervousness; she flicked the hair that fell over her face."You look prettier when you're nervous," Dominik chuckled, which made Adine return Dominik's gaze.Dominik chuckled amusedly when he noticed that the woman's face in front of him looked as red as a tomato."Tell me quickly! Why did you call me here?" Adine pursed her lips forward.She gave the impression that she was annoyed with Dominik, but she couldn't hide the rapid beating of her heart.Dominik grabbed Adine's wai

    The beautiful eyelids opened slowly to reveal dense irises glistening like obsidian gemstones.Adine, who had fallen asleep on her side, began flapping on her back. Her left hand fumbled around, but she found only an empty mattress.Turning her head, she found no one there. Her face, which looked beautiful despite having just woken up, now began to frown."So, he didn't come to the apartment last night," the woman muttered in a disappointed tone.She started to get up slowly, sitting on the edge of the bed for a moment, stretching her still sore body."Why should I be disappointed? I'm not just a mistress!" Adine sighed harshly, disappointed with herself.She tiptoed slightly when there was a knock on the door."Who's coming?" she asked softly.She started to get up from the edge of the bed; as the knocking became louder and louder, Adine made a small run to the door."Miss, are you awake?" It turned out that Adine only heard Willy's voice after she was near the door."Baron?" asked A

    That night, Dominik decided to stay at the villa. Accompany Adine and order Arion and Richie to return to the capital and will pick up Dominik the next day. However, Adine said firmly if Adine wanted to stay at the villa during her pregnancy. Dominik forbade her, however, as Mr. Michael, accompanied by Mrs. Nita, had to go to Singapore for treatment. “We will get married again. Pledge before God and accompany father to Singapore,” Dominik said convincingly. Adine looked at Dominik with a shady look in her eyes. “Dominik, I understand your concern. But believe me, I'll be fine in this villa. I want to enjoy my pregnancy in a quiet and peaceful place.”Dominik let out a long sigh. “But Adine, your father has to undergo intensive care in Singapore. What if something goes wrong when I'm not by your side?”“You don't have to worry, Dominik. Mr. Thomas and Mrs. Melati will accompany and take care of me while you're away,” Adine said reassuringly.Dominik looked doubtful for a moment, but

    Adine was busy preparing the porridge that he would give to his father, while Mrs. Nita was almost finished with all the menus for breakfast that morning. Vegetable beef soup, grilled chicken and potato cakes were the side dishes they would eat that morning. Tofu tempeh bacem was also part of their menu.“Bu Nita, the smell of her cooking makes me hungry,” Adine said as she mixed the chicken porridge.Mrs. Nita smiled as she poured all the dishes into plates and bowls. “We'll have breakfast soon, Miss,” she said.“Daddy's porridge is done. I'll help you prepare the food,” Adine replied.Adine quickly brought the vegetable bowl and a plate of potato cakes to the dining table. All the food was ready. Adine then stepped into her father's room to help him get ready for breakfast.While Mrs. Nita was still struggling with some kitchen utensils, she heard the bell ring. She stopped washing the utensils, washed her hands, wiped them on her apron, and then quickly took it off. She walked qui

    Traveling for almost two hours, the car Richie was driving arrived in Lembang when the sky was already dark. Although the city lights would never go out at night, it was impossible to reach the villa Adine was staying at that night because the road was dark and surrounded by tea gardens on the slopes of the mountains.“Sir, it would be very risky if we continue our journey tonight. Perhaps, you can stay at the hotel just for tonight. Tomorrow morning we will continue our journey,” suggested Richie who was still circling the city streets.Dominik still looked silent and didn't say anything. His head was still filled with considerations. A moment later, he nodded and accepted Richie's suggestion. “Find a hotel nearby,” he told Richie.The man who was still focused on driving nodded and started looking for one of the inns that they would use to rest for a few hours. After a few minutes, Richie found a hotel that looked comfortable and safe. They immediately pulled up in front of the h

    The sky was already dark. Dominik seemed reluctant to move from his black chair in the study. His expression was completely glum. He clutched his smart flat object tightly and stared at it as if he was afraid it would disappear. He didn't even hear the creak of the door opening, his only focus was on the phone screen.“Sir,” Arion called, which didn't take Dominik's gaze off the screen. Arion, the personal assistant, continued to step closer to Dominik who looked completely disoriented.“Mr. Dominik, it's getting late. Aren't you going home and resting?” repeated Arion, which still made Dominik flinch.Dominik let out a long sigh, his voice sounding weak and full of despair. “If I go home, Adine's face will always decorate my head. I can't live without her, Arion. Please, tell Richie to find her soon. She's pregnant with my child. That's what made him leave for fear that I wouldn't accept my future child.”Arion looked at Dominik with concern, understanding how deeply his boss felt.

    Dominik hurriedly called Richie to pick her up, and also interrogated the man who had driven Adine back to the penthouse. “Ckck...where's Adine?” muttered Dominik who was sitting next to Richie. The man who was driving beside Dominik gave him a glance, revealing the panicked face of the young master. “Richie, why didn't Adine answer my call earlier. Are you sure you drove Adine to the apartment?” he asked the Richie beside him who was turning the wheel. “I dropped her off in front of the lobby and she walked quickly into the lobby,” Richie replied. Dominik who was listening breathed a sigh of relief, but the look of panic was still on his face.Richie remained focused on the road, but his answer clearly gave Dominik some peace of mind. “But I didn't see Madame go upstairs, young sir. I believe she went into the lobby, but after that I can't be sure,” Richie added, his voice sounding cautious.Dominik squeezed his cell phone, anxiety taking over his mind. “Try calling again. Maybe

    Upon arrival at the penthouse, Adine was pacing back and forth on the terrace. Right on the top floor of one of the high-rise buildings in the city of Jakarta. The weather that was not too hot blew a gentle breeze right in the woman's face. Her face looked confused, she didn't know how to tell Dominik that she was pregnant with his child. “I have to go,” she muttered. “He'll be furious if he finds out I'm carrying his flesh and blood.” Adine's tears suddenly fell unbidden, imagining if Dominik would force her to abort the seed that had grown in her womb. Adine shook her head vigorously trying to dismiss all her bad thoughts. “No! I must act immediately.” She ran to the small table there and grabbed her cell phone. Her hands were shaking as she scrolled through the phone. As the dial tone began to sound, Adine was filled with worry. Her only thought was to protect the baby in her womb. Three times the dial tone was heard, the voice of someone on the other side began to sound. [“M

    Adine was startled when she heard banging on the door. She was nervous and quickly put away all her test pack results. “Adine, are you okay inside?” Dominik's voice was getting louder. “If you don't answer me, I'll break down this bathroom door!” Adine hurriedly put her test pack into the pocket of her dress carefully so as not to be found by Dominik. The banging sound was getting louder, she was getting more nervous, “Dominik, be quiet! I'm fine!” she replied in the bathroom. But Dominik, a stocky man with short hair and eyes that always seemed to be looking for answers, was not satisfied. “If you don't answer me, I'll break down this bathroom door!” His threat grew more serious, his voice rising, sounding frustrated. With a pounding heart, Adine unlocked the door and opened it slightly so that only her head and some of her shoulders were visible. Through the crack in the door, she saw Dominik standing with both hands clenched at his sides, his face showing a mixture of wo

    "I don't know, suddenly my head is spinning."Adine tightly gripped Dominik's hand as he tried to support her. He helped his wife to sit on the sofa."Sir, I will get the wind oil from Belle's place."Dominik nodded, and Arion quickly left his master's study."We need to go to the hospital," Dominik said while rubbing Adine's left hand."There's no need, it might just be exhaustion. It will pass," Adine replied while massaging her temples and closing her eyes."Exhausted? Exhausted because you have to attend to me in bed every night?" asked Dominik with a chuckle."Dominik! That's not funny!" Adine slapped Dominik's arm and glared at him angrily."I'm calling the doctor!" Dominik declared firmly."But I'm fine," Adine protested with a pleading look."No arguing!" Dominik stared at her sternly, stepped towards the desk, and grabbed his phone.Adine just watched him pace back and forth, trying to reach someone on the phone.A serious conversation unfolded between Dominik and the person

    “Dominik! I was asking!” Adine looked annoyed as Dominik just smiled lightly while ruffling his hair.“I don't know where your anti-ham pills are,” Dominik finally replied, albeit falsely.“Maybe you ran out and forgot,” Dominik quipped again.“But I'm sure I still have my anti-pregnancy pills,” Adine said as she recalled them.“My safeguards are out, but I don't think there's any need to use them,” said Dominik, which made Adine's eyes round, looking more and more like the eyes of a bambi deer.“But...”“No buts! I think you'd like it better if I didn't wear a harness,” Dominik cut in with a mischievous look at his wife.Adine couldn't interrupt, her body felt weak. Dizziness, that was all she could feel right now.“Dominik, what if there is already something growing in my womb?” asked Adine with a pained face.Dominik looked at Adine with a warm smile. He could see how tense his wife's expression was.“Do you mind keeping my seed there?” asked Dominik, which immediately made Adine c
