In the middle of the night, a car finally pulled up in front of a large house that was far from other settlements. First, a bodyguard got out of the front seat. The big man opened the back door, revealing Evan, who's carefully getting out of the car.On his handsome face, now, there is a trace of fatigue that the man can no longer hide. He passed all the servants who were still awake to wait for him. Evan just wanted to shower and rest for now. His meeting with his uncle today, made Evan's mood turn really sour.Evan was indeed the first to take the initiative to see his uncle for one last time. He thought that since no one knew how long Anton would live, talking to his uncle would calm his heart. But when Evan saw his uncle, the image that appeared was the moments where Anton still appeared as a good uncle in front of him. Evan remembered how Anton always helped him, how the man took care of him, even though it was all just fake attention for his uncle.“Why do you look so bad? Didn'
“Mr. Anton, you have a visitor.”Anton, who was originally eating his breakfast, looked up when a warden led him out to meet someone who wanted to see him. Anton's brows furrowed slightly when the warden didn't take him to his usual place. An alert alarm began to sound in Anton's mind, when he was instead taken to a storage warehouse that used to be a place for inmates to play.“Hey, you said ….”“Shut up, or I'll make your prison life feel like you're in hell.”Anton immediately shut his mouth tightly when the warden began to threaten him with a serious tone. Outside the prison, he might be a man of power and respect. But inside the prison, he had no power at all. Anton could only follow the warden obediently, though his mind began to swirl with bad speculations along the way.“Finally, we meet in person, Mr. Anton.”Anton immediately turned his gaze to someone sitting casually inside the warehouse when he was finally brought in. His lips trembled with anger, as the puzzle pieces tha
“And … Done.”Maya muttered to herself as she finished with her rehabilitation schedule. Because the injuries she suffered were not too serious, Maya was able to do self-rehabilitation at home to get used to her hands and feet again. One week is enough for Maya to return to walking and doing normal activities. However, because Evan is again too worried about Maya's condition, she really can't do many activities that can burden her body. Maya could only do simple movements with boredom these days.Maya's attention was distracted when, from a distance, she could hear a car slowly entering Evan's yard. The girl moved to approach the large window in the gym at Evan's house. A police car stopped right in front of the house. Kris got out of the car, seemed to be greeted by Kevin, who happened to be exercising with Evan on their day off.Maya rushed to the bathroom before she could go downstairs to greet the policeman. From Kevin, Maya learned. That it was inappropriate for a girl like her t
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
“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. Evan will appear to give them a warning. That his family has not been destroyed. And he, didn't die the way the people wanted him to.“Are you sure you want to come with me this time? Since you were accepted into university, you haven't come to attend your first class yet. And now … You have to postpone your studies again to accompany me.”Maya laughed when she heard her husband's concern. “Let's see if they have the courage to speak up after deliberately sneaking a kidnapper in the so-
“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. Because the woman was completely shaken yesterday, Maya and Evan were forced to go home before Cynthia could wake
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
“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
