"Jordan Millano?" Kairav repeated the name as he recalled someone he had worked for in the past. "How could I forget that man."Kairav smiled a little, he knew Jordan well, the man was the same age as him and they had worked together when Kairav started his company.The man searched for Jordan's contact number on his mobile phone and opened his chat room with Jordan. It turned out that it had been two years since they had exchanged news, the last chat message was the winter of two years ago. "It's been a long time," Kairav muttered as he sent Jordan his greeting message."I hope his number is still active," Kairav muttered, staring at the glass window of his CEO's office.Not quite five minutes later, Kairav's mobile phone suddenly vibrated indicating an incoming call. "Jordan?"The person calling was an old friend of his. Immediately, Kairav picked up the call. "Hello, Jordan?"[Jordan Millano]: "Geez, Kairav? Is this really you?"Jordan's voice sounded incredulous that Kairav was su
Kairav zipped up the coat he was wearing as he looked towards the intersection of the highway, the weather had already started to cool down, it was indeed getting close to the late autumn stage, so the temperature had already started to drop.The man was now waiting for someone, who was his old friend, Jordan.According to the appointment they had made yesterday, Jordan and Kariav would meet and discuss more details about the new mission they would be working on. They were supposed to meet at Kairav's office, however, Mr Adam informed them that the electricians were coming this afternoon and they would be replacing all the lights in the building, which was part of Kairav's way of refreshing the company after his return as CEO.Since Jordan and Kairav's discussion would be earnest and confidential, they naturally couldn't let anyone overhear their conversation including the electricians."We don't know if there will be any intruders among the staff," Kairav said as he called Jordan one
With her short steps, Camilla walked through the courtyard of Kairav's house, a residence that had been reoccupied by the man. Although there were still reporters who came to her, but not as many as when she was in the criminal process with David some time ago.This afternoon Camilla had just been contacted by Detective Miguel regarding the case of her shooting. The detective informed her that the case had finally been officially closed by the police after a year since Camilla was shot by Bastian."I don't know why it feels so empty." That was Camilla's response after getting the news from Detective Miguel.This was not the ending Camilla had expected and imagined when she had just woken up after the shooting. When she wanted to avenge her two friends, Camilla imagined that she would confront Bastian directly, slap him hard on the cheek, and then drag him into prison directly.But in reality, Bastian Kairav died instead and she didn't even get to see his body or face."Well, maybe I c
"Where are you going, Camilla?" Kairav groaned softly when he realized that the girl was not beside him lying on the king-size bed.From between her eyes that were still slightly squinted, Kairav could see Camilla was getting ready to leave. Even though it was still six o'clock in the morning, it was still a little dark outside and perhaps the temperature would be a little cooler than yesterday because it was nearing the end of autumn.Sure enough, Camilla was already wearing her thick jogging outfit complete with training trousers, a t-shirt, and a jacket. "Morning run," she replied briefly to Kairav who was still snuggled comfortably in bed. "I'll just run around the neighborhood," he added."You want to go for a morning run in such low temperatures? Oh, come on Camilla, won't it be colder outside?" murmured Kairav who wanted to hug the girl back like he did all night.Camilla didn't answer because the girl had intended since last night to start running again in the morning to impro
The girl woke up and opened her eyes slowly, at first she still squinted and blinked a few times as she found a dim lamplight shining above her head while the surroundings were dark."Oh, my head." Camilla winced, about to raise her hand to touch her temple but unfortunately, the girl was in a bound position, her hands were tied behind her back and she only realized she was currently tied to a chair.Camilla was very surprised, as soon as she woke up she was already in a room, which she didn't know how big it was, what was clear was that the room was very dark around her, because there was only a lamp hanging over her head, it made the girl unable to see anything in the darkness around her."What the hell is that going to do?" cursed Camilla still in shock.The girl wiggled her hands that were tied behind her body, trying to break free but the strong rope and black duct tape on her wrists did not allow her arms to move, not even a little."Well... well, well. You're awake."There was
"...I just want to make sure the man who kidnapped me can at least match Kairav's good looks!"Honestly, Arez was quite provoked by that sentence. He didn't expect the girl he kidnapped to have tactics to get him to show himself.If there was no reason for Arez not to show himself, then why not? He would appear in front of this girl and make her remember his face forever.Haughtily, Arez got up from his chair and took one step towards the chair in the center of the room, which Camilla was sitting on with both hands tied to it.Camilla could hear the sound of the soles of loafers hitting the floor and approaching her. The corners of the girl's lips pulled up slightly, she was glad that at least this man who kidnapped her was still listening to her and taking the bait well.The girl stared straight ahead, prepared to see whatever kind of face would come out of the darkness. A few seconds later, a tall man in a semi-casual suit emerged and entered the circular area highlighted by the lam
"Kairav looked at a location point for Camilla on his mobile phone screen. The current location was approximately 1 kilometer from Camilla's current position.The man frowned, after all, this area was just the location of flats for middle-class residents, nothing special. But, it had been three tens of minutes that Kairav had been monitoring and the spot had not moved at all, aka Camilla had not moved to another place."This is strange, even that girl is still not picking up my calls if indeed she is staying somewhere," Kairav muttered.At that moment, he was at an overpass with a river flowing underneath. He stopped his motorbike near the bridge railing, while Kairav stood near the railing not far away. The river wind was blowing against his body, causing his hair and the hem of his shirt to wave slightly. He was now waiting for information from one of his friends who worked as a police officer in the city's CCTV monitoring department.Kairav had deliberately asked his friend to see
For a few seconds, there was noise and commotion as a door slammed behind the wall of the room Camilla was currently in. Camilla had no idea what was going on because she was still in the darkroom with her hands bound to the chair and a lamp glowing above her head.Arez, who was sitting relaxing and looking at Camilla's beauty from his throne chair at the end of the room, turned around in surprise and raised his eyebrows when he heard the commotion behind the room."Looks like he was here," he muttered with a sly smile. The man did not bother to get up, let alone greet the person he guessed had arrived.A few seconds later, the room that had been dark and only lit by one lamp suddenly became brightly lit as soon as the sound of the light switch was pressed. One by one, the lights in the spacious room came on in turn.Camilla had to squint her eyes for a while to neutralize the light that suddenly entered her corneas. Her vision was dazzled for only a few seconds as her eyes were used
"Camilla, will you marry me?" Kairav knelt down beside Camilla and took out a box containing a diamond ring from under his jacket.Camilla did not expect to be proposed to by the CEO of an arms company like KairavOver the past two years, a man which was so uncommon had caused many twists and turns in her life.Camilla chuckled at him, tears welling up in her eyes but still held back. She turned to face her mother as well, who was now grateful of this scene.With a smile, Mrs Kate nodded, as if to give her permission and let Camilla make her own life choices.Next, with a look of conviction and determination, Camilla nodded and accepted Kairav's proposal, letting him place the beautiful diamond ring on her middle finger.Kairav had no idea how delighted he was tonight, finally, after a long wait, he could propose to Camilla and ask her to get married to him. He was going to make her the happiest girl on the entire universe.****Camilla stepped out of Kairav's car after he opened the d
"Do I try to take your mom to the Sky Lounge where we usually have dinner?" Kairav asked bitterly.Camilla chuckled and shook her head lightly. "My mom wouldn't want to go to such an expensive place either. She said she wants you to come home."Kairav fixed his tie which was already neat, he was nervous. "All right, if that's what your mom wants." What the hell, he had to comply. "But, what do you mean nowadays?""You wouldn't like my mom to shift her mind abruptly, do you?" Camilla teased."Well, that would be bad." Kairav shrugged."If you're not ready to go from here, maybe you can take your time and arrive over to my house later this evening." Camilla checked her watch and saw that dinner was still eight hours away.Kairav immediately said yes. He didn't mind, a real man should be brave enough to face his future mother-in-law, hopefully.***The man fixed his collar while reflecting slightly in his car window. He was in Camilla's courtyard tonight, waiting for the girl to come out
Camilla rose from her seat, the girl now feeling very satisfied with what she had just said. Although this conversation was quite short, but there was no reason for Camilla to linger looking at Arez's face, a face that had a gloomy and defeated impression."Bitch, Camilla! You're just going to leave!" Arez yelled, standing up and pounding on the glass partition between them. His eyes were bloodshot, and his heart was pounding.Arez thought this girl would cry emotionally about the sadistic bombing of the plane that killed her two best friends, but in fact Camilla seemed to have ignored her even though Arez's role was that important in Camilla's life.Camilla, who had been standing with her back to Arez, now smiled wryly She cocked her head a little. "What do you think I'll say when I come here to speak with you? Crying and whining to make you take responsibility for their deaths? Well, you won't be able to make up for it. So why else would I talk and look at your ugly face!" she scold
[San Quentin State Prison]"Are you ready?" asked Kairav as he approached Camilla who was sitting on one of the benches in the waiting lobby of the San Quentin State Prison.The courthouse was not far away, the girl had just returned from court after her lawsuit against David had gone quite well for her. David was sentenced to one year in prison for the sexual assault he had committed on her.However, there was nothing more thrilling for Camilla than meeting Arez, the man who changed her life completely.The girl nodded as she rose from her seat. She put on a confident face. "Can I come in already? Or does Arez not want to see me?" she asked a little doubtfully. It could be that he didn't want to see anyone because he was a prisoner (albeit a temporary one) in this prison."If you suddenly feel the symptoms of your panic attack relapsing, you can code me through the CCTV camera in the meeting room with Arez," Kairav put his arm around Camilla's shoulders and stroked her gently."I'll
Camilla bit her finger while her eyes glanced several times at her cell phone that was sitting on the table in her room.The girl was waiting for a call from Kairav. This morning, he said he would send the criminal charges against Arez to the high court and asked Camilla to pray that everything would go smoothly.It was now late afternoon, but he had yet to tell her anything about it. How could Camilla not be curious and upset?She was so impatient that she walked back and forth across the table, waiting for Kairav to call her back or at least reply to her message."Let's hope everything goes well," Camilla thought, nibbling on the tip of her thumb again. She looked up at the clock on the wall and it was almost five in the afternoon. "The court office must have closed an hour ago," she thought again."Ah I should just go with Kairav," sighed the girl.But as it was, Kairav had sent Camilla and Mrs. Kate to a residence owned by one of Kairav's close friends and had the empty residence
“Indeed. Hence, my work with Jordan at this time will be very stressful. However, we are expected to be able to finish all of these mandates and transmit them to the International Court of Justice, Interpol, and, of course, the United States High Court. Of course, first and foremost, I have to ensure that the path and flow of this legal procedure is smooth and flawless."Sure enough, Kairav also had to create a safe path for him to end this struggle. This even included the people involved in every legal and security line."It's really a big risk, Kairav," Camilla chimed in.To be honest the girl felt too selfish, she was using Kairav in her revenge even though she loved the man. However, Camilla was sure, that withdrawing her request and then asking Kairav to stop taking revenge was impossible.They were already so far involved and had even risked their lives because of this piece of conspiracy. Both of them couldn't just stop, they had to end this no matter what. After all, it was for
That night, Camilla who was accompanied by the bodyguard that Kairav assigned to escort her entered the yard of Kairav's house.The girl got out of the black car, which of course Kairav lent to her, well the man was indeed very totality if he already loved a girl, even his wealth was willing to use as much as possible to protect Camilla."Miss Camilla, approximately what time will you be returning home?" asked the bodyguard who doubled as Camilla's driver.Camilla thought about it. "It looks like I'll be staying here tonight, Argus. So, tonight you're off duty. Tomorrow morning around nine o'clock pick me up, yes," she smiled politely.The bodyguard nodded in understanding of Camilla's words and then the car began to move backwards out of Kairav's yard.Meanwhile, Camilla stepped onto the terrace of the luxurious house and pressed the doorbell. She had tried entering her usual PIN, but it seemed that Kairav had changed the PIN of his house, perhaps it must be for security purposes.Be
"Arez left the forgiveness note with his mother?"Kairav could not believe what he was hearing. Truly, she never expected to witness something she usually saw in movies.Jordan quickly continued his previous sentence. "Yes, that is indeed her mother, though not her biological mother. She's just an adoptive mother or something."Now Kairav was nodding. He almost imagined a strange conspiracy in his head if that woman was Arez's biological mother. "Well, it would be very strange if it really was his biological mother. It makes sense now that Arez entrusted the record of accomplishments that he used to forgive his sins to someone who was his adoptive mother.""Yes, but his foster mother loved him very much." Jordan opened his small notes and gave a little information that Arez was also an adopted child when the man was five years old, regarding his biological family background before that could not be known. "Judging from Arez's facial features and race, it looks like she is of Scottish
"Regardless, I just hope that you prioritize your safety, because the company still relies heavily on you. If anything happens to you, the CEO of this company, then the destruction of the company will be inevitable. Remember, we just got back on our feet," said Mr. Adam.Kairav just chuckled casually, he understood the meaning of his secretary, Mr. Adam was very worried about his business with Arez. In fact, if anything happened to Kairav, such as death, then the leadership of this company would immediately fall into Mr. Adam's hands."I promise to be even more careful. Because, it's not just my life that's at risk, I'm sure Arez wouldn't be so weak as to threaten my life. But the lives of Camilla and those closest to me are at stake," Kairav added.The two of them ate lunch together for a few tens of minutes. Since today was Sunday, Mr. Adam excused himself to go back to his house, after picking up his daughter who had lessons on Sunday, he promised to bring her a toy.As for Kairav,
