“First, I'm not speaking to judge you right now. You consider me as a friend, I also do the same. But Finola, you should be aware that your identity has been too suspicious all along. Evan probably didn't say anything. But I know, even he also doubts your background, which is too strange to be real. Creating magic food with unconventional methods is already strange. And yesterday, you displayed a fighting skill that can't be trained in a short times. We didn't only face one attacker that time. Even for myself, I had a hard time dealing with two to three assassins at once. Yet, you took care of the rest without harming anyone, Finola. The way you handled the assault… It didn't look like the girl who had been living in torment for a long time and was living at home in a state of disrepair.”

As Kevin conveyed his suspicions, the relaxed atmosphere around them gradually began to dissipate. Both Kevin and Maya looked at each other's faces, as if trying to judge each other's thoughts, as the

    Finished speaking, Kevin, who was just about to enter, stopped walking when the man saw his best friend already sitting in front of the door with his eyes focused on them. The man probably just stayed silent without saying anything. But with a deep frown on the man's forehead, Kevin already knew that his best friend wasn't happy about something right now.Evan's gaze continued to focus on his wife, who still hadn't noticed her presence from afar because Maya was busy lowering her head. Evan lightly tapped on the armrests of his wheelchair, making Kevin unconsciously depressed just by that simple movement.They just talked and exchanged smiles at the end of the conversation. Kevin thought, his friend couldn't have misunderstood them, right?They just talked alone in a quiet place and smiled at each other while looking at each other. All right, Kevin knew he must have misunderstood his best friend by now.“ … I can explain everything, Evan,” Kevin said hastily. The man shifted his body,

    Maya's days passed peacefully from then on. Throughout her life, it seemed that her life in the village was the most peaceful life she could enjoy. On many occasions, Maya could only sit and occasionally walk with Evan to get rid of her boredom.As long as Evan kept an eye on her, Maya really wasn't allowed to exercise until her body was completely healed. Only if Evan and Kevin were busy working, Maya could finally practice quietly as usual. In those days, Maya could see that neither Evan nor Kevin could go anywhere apart from their study and bedroom. Maya could see the two discussing and working on a seemingly never-ending pile of documents. Every day was full of monotonous activities for Maya, and excruciating boredom for the girl.Everyone seemed very busy in the villa. While she, who can only cook and heal herself, can only wander in sheer boredom.“Why do I have to use an armrest like this? I want to take it off ….”Maya wailed in a weak voice, when her free hand was really itchi

    Maya's eyes narrowed with a smile, as her eyes stared at the house that looked brand new after the attack on Evan's house a few days ago. It seems that to relieve the trauma, Kevin remodeled the house in several sections that are directly related to the incident. Evan's mansion seemed warmer this time. And it's beautiful because Evan has arranged a new flower garden in the front yard of the house after Maya said that she likes to see flowers when she was at Evan's villa.Maya paused for a moment just to stare at the flower garden when the butler started to get busy bringing in their things again. Maya politely declined when Evan's butler was about to bring a suitcase containing her belongings. Evan's house is currently short of workers. Maya didn't want to make life difficult for the butler, who was already old. Maya's armrest had also been removed before they returned home. The girl was already fine, very fine, just to take her suitcase.With her clear eyes, Maya stared at the beautif

    The next morning, Maya seems to have been busy in the kitchen since early morning. Not just busy. The woman really looks like a mad scientist, as the girl prepares a new variety of food at the dinner table. Fortunately, the other people who now live at Evan's house are used to seeing food in such a strange shape. Or they might be frightened, seeing the mutated plant cooked by Maya.Even though since the attack, Maya had only been assisted by one chef when it was cooking time, Maya was still very satisfied with the results of her cooking even for today. Working without many people made it easier for Maya to do some experiments, without anyone seeing her as a freak because of her actions.First, Maya knew that they had to move quickly after Evan's uncle blatantly tried to kill them back then. Since for now, Maya's best ability is only to heal people with her food, Maya wants to start her plan by making everyone healthy first. Now, Anton doesn't just target Evan. That man had targeted her

    “Kevin, can I ask you a favor about something?”When Evan was on his way to go to the bathroom before the man left for work, Maya immediately spoke before Evan returned from his activities to get ready for work as usual. Maya's serious expression had left Kevin speechless for a while. The man knew Maya was going to talk about something serious. So to shorten the time, Kevin immediately nodded in reply to Maya's question.“As long as I can do it, I will help you, Finola,” he said firmly. Maya smiled in relief at the answer. She confirmed that Evan had just turned to go to his room, when she went straight to Kevin to whisper to the man.“Actually, I need all the related information about Anton, Evan's uncle. I know in my contract I shouldn't interfere in Evan's family matters like this. But now Evan is a friend of mine, so I can't just stand by when he's been bullied by someone, Kevin.”“ ….”Kevin almost thought that Maya was treating her best friend as a child when the girl spoke about

    Evan's dark eyes stared blankly at his office, which was quiet during work hours. The image of Maya's crying, for some reason, continue to stick in that man's memory. Even at breakfast, Maya's crying face lingered in Evan's memory. The man felt he couldn't focus today, as long as Maya's image kept bothering him.Evan knew that Maya was crying because the girl was moved by his gift at that time. But Evan still couldn't help himself, to feel that his chest tightened every time he saw a single tear trickle down from those eyes that used to always look strong and passionate.Evan didn't want to see Maya cry. Not only did he not want to see, it would probably be more accurate to say that Evan didn't want Maya to cry at all. The man wants his wife to always be happy. His wife was a good girl, Evan thought she also deserved all the happiness in this world.That girl deserves someone better. Not him who was crippled and always brought danger to those around him.Due to his frustrated thoughts,

    Ding![This is the data you requested earlier. If there's anything you want to ask, you can tell me right away.]Maya looked at her cell phone in awe, as file after file successively sent to her email by Kevin. Because Kevin was too busy yesterday, the man could only send Maya the data in the next day. Maya carefully read the files one by one. Her lips wore a sly smile, as she marked a couple of important points in the data. She had no intention of killing the man any time soon. But slowly teaching the man a lesson would be nice too.Back in the messaging application, Maya sent a message to Kevin to say thank you. A few minutes later, Kevin returned to reply to Maya's message. They didn't exchange any more messages after that because Maya knew Kevin must be very busy while he was working with Evan.Not long after, Maya finally heard the sound of a foreign car entering Evan's large yard. Maya got up to peek at the guest from the window in the room she was occupying. A man of good propor

    Maya was already starting to sweat as the girl started to change her way of fighting to a more difficult level. The girl wanted Tian to stop giving her a handicap, and occasionally let Maya hit him to lift the spirits of the girl. Maya might be an expert in killing techniques, but the girl also wants to be an expert in ordinary martial arts in the future.While applying the stealth move she learned from living amidst a horde of zombies, Maya attacked again with a marked degree of seriousness after that. Noticing the drastic change in Maya's fighting style, Tian's expression changed as he began to use both his hands to parry Maya's extremely agile punches and kicks. The man started to focus a little on Maya's movements, until one sudden movement made Tian lose his balance and fall, right before he managed to attack Maya.Tian was shocked and confused when his balance was completely lost, and he fell while Maya was still able to stand up straight. Their fierce battle stopped there. Maya,

    After being reassured by Evan, Maya's mood improved so much that the girl didn't mind responding to people's greetings. Throughout the event, Maya smiled, spreading a positive aura which also affected Evan, who was initially a little annoyed by the gossiping girls. Under Maya's amusement, Evan finally had a more friendly face as they entered the cinema room while holding hands. The two of them sat on the bench that had been prepared. Evan rubbed Maya's hand lightly, as he whispered to the girl in a worried tone.“You can let me know whenever you sense that this movie is starting to make you uncomfortable. Remember, your happiness is my priority right now.”Maya smiled as she returned her husband's whisper. “I see. Thank you, Evan,” she said sincerely. Evan nodded in response to his wife's words. His face was very gentle, as he looked at his wife's face with great affection.After all the guests entered the room, the atmosphere gradually calmed down as the lights finally turned off. Wit

    When the time came, Maya went to the premiere with Evan and a driver. Because they had to get ready before Evan's work time over, Kevin was forced to not be able to accompany them to complete the task left by Evan. Seeing Kevin working hard, Maya subconsciously felt sorry for him and started joking that Evan should give Kevin an appreciation for what the man had done for them all this time. But unexpectedly, Evan actually nodded in response to her words. Only when they were in the car, Evan finally open his mouth about the meaning of his nod.“I plan to transfer twenty-five percent of my family's wealth under his name. I really want to give more. But given his personality, he'd be upset if I gave him too much. I haven't talked about transferring this wealth to him. Do you mind if I do, Maya?”With the business and assets that Evan owns, twenty-five percent is enough for Kevin to spend the rest of his life in luxury without needing to work again. Maya satisfactorily shook her head. “He

But the comments, really annoyed Maya when the girl read them one by one.When Evan got sick, everyone judged their love story in a relatively negative way. Some think Maya only married for Evan's wealth. While others, feel sorry that Maya has to marry a dying man like Evan. Only few people who's sincerely wish for their happiness. But when news of Evan's recovery had spread, people seemed to be competing to delete their previous comments and start praising them as the happiest couple on earth. Some even claimed to know her or Evan, and praised their compatibility, even though Maya didn't actually know that people.Now Maya knew why Evan had been so isolated from the outside world all this time. In a time when Evan was at his worst, the man knew that no one was willing to help him except those who were sincere to him. People, who laugh

    Once they arrived at the hospital, Diana had finished being examined and was resting in the infirmary with her friends. The incident seemed too shocking for the young girls, so neither of them spoke until Maya entered the room with Evan and Kevin.“Sorry, we came late. How are you guys doing now?”Diana's eyes immediately reddened when she remembered Maya had saved her life again. Maya, aware of Diana's feelings, immediately approached the girl. Maya let Diana hug her tightly, while she herself tried to calm Diana by gently stroking her back.“It's fine. You're safe now ….”Maya whispered softly while her eyes stared at Evan and Kevin, who were invited out by two of Diana's friends. Maya knew the two of them would most likely talk about Diana's examination results or just allow Diana some space to express her feelings. The girl waited until Diana was completely calm, before she let go of their embrace and wiped the tears that rolled down the Diana's cheeks.“Feeling better?” Maya aske

    “Then, I hope you will be willing to listen to my advice.”While Maya was running everywhere looking for Diana, Evan and Kevin had just finished talking to the Dean and were being ushered out of the room. They were just about to open the door, when the head of the university security entered in such a hurry that he almost bumped into Evan, who was at the door.“I'm sorry, Sir. But someone just got into a fight in the warehouse!”People's faces turned red with embarrassment when the head of security reported the problem while Evan and Kevin were still in the room. They had just promised to increase security within the university. And now, someone even reported that there had just been a fight on the campus.“What are you saying? If the students start fighting, you can just bring them here without causing any unnecessary fuss!”The Dean scolded before Evan or Kevin grew suspicious of them. When Evan personally came to this university, they thought they could curry favor with Evan a litt

    Elsewhere, Diana fell back hard when someone kicked her in the stomach. Her friends, Evelyn and Josephine, can only cry when they are held back by the other man, so they can't help Diana. Ever since Diana came to campus, the girl couldn't count how many insults she had received just for today. However, the treatment he received from this unknown guy, was the worst of all. When Diana arrived at her class, she was suddenly dragged out by these strong people. The beautiful clothes her father had given her were already messed up by the dirt and trash that had previously been dumped on her body. Diana stared at the ground with teary eyes. She knew, this was her punishment for having a father who had ruined many people's lives with his actions.“Oh my gosh, take a look. Mr. Anton's magnificent daughter looks like walking dirt right now.”The other kids laughed as one of them insulted Diana while looking at her mockingly. Slowly, Diana tried to get up again, even though her body was already

    “Diana told you she was going back to college? Good then. I'll see you at university later.”“Ah, I'll take care of university matters. Just tell Diana to focus on her studies.”“No, I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do as a family. Thanks for letting me know. See you at the campus.”Evan watched as Maya called one of Diana's friends. After yesterday's funeral, Maya finally believed that she would start her studies today. The girl was ready to go to college, when one of Diana's friends called his wife.“Diana finally ready to go to her classes again?” Evan asked curiously.Maya nodded. “Yes. Diana told her friends that she was ready to go back to college today. I think yesterday's meeting really helped her. I plan to meet her at college later. Since yesterday, we haven't heard any news about Aunt Cynthia's condition, have we?”Cynthia is Diana's mother and Anton's wife.

    “Well, you're handsome now.”Evan stealthily stole a kiss on his wife's cheek when Maya finished helping him get ready. “You're also gorgeous, Maya,” he whispered softly when he saw Maya, who was wearing a matching black outfit. They will attend Anton's funeral this afternoon. Evan did it for his aunt and Diana, as well as for his official appearance with a healed body.Besides Anton, as a businessman, Evan also has many enemies who take advantage of his illness to steal some of his company's projects.

    Maya watched as Evan seemed quieter these days. The man did try to act normal. But Maya knew, that sometimes his mind was elsewhere. Maya is afraid that Anton's death will have a bigger impact than she thought. Maya slightly frowned, when her eyes saw her husband was preparing to clean himself with a warm bath.When Evan entered the bathroom, Maya casually stood up and took off her clothes. With calm steps, Maya entered the bathroom. Her act has causing Evan, who was originally soaking in the bath tub, to jump up from his surprise.“You-”Evan's face turned redder as Maya calmly entered the same bath tub that Evan was using. Because Evan's bath tub is huge, Maya has no trouble finding a comfortable position on the same bath tub. The woman smiled, when she saw her husband's face turning even redder.“You've been looking troubled since Sergeant Kris came this morning. I'm fine now, so … I should be able to cheer you up, shouldn't I?”Evan, who usually wasn't concerned about such temptat
