"Did you hear that Mr. Madison and Caroline had a problem? They had a fight and are now separated."

"I heard that too. No wonder Mr. Madison always ignores her when she works here."

"Yes, I feel that way too. Caroline pushed herself too hard to win Mr. Madison's heart; it seems like she's given up now because Mr. Madison is hard to conquer."

"Maybe the news about their engagement happened because of Caroline's coercion. It could be that Caroline threatened Mr. Madison about the company's confidential information, which is why he was forced to accept Caroline."

"But Mr. Madison is not a weak person who can be scared only by threats. Moreover, he has power; taking the life of one woman is not a difficult thing for him."

“Then, what's the reason? You know Caroline has been absent from work for the past few days, after she received a bad attitude from Mr. Madison."

"Do you know where Caroline is now?"

    Jared stared at the photos and videos of Caroline that he had gotten from Shopia. A week had passed, but he didn't have the courage to appear in front of Caroline. This was because he was afraid that Caroline would go further away and remain untouched.Even though he had allowed Shopia and Caroline to use his card freely and as they pleased, there was little money left. Jared didn't understand why Caroline and Shopia weren't that crazy about money. Shopia could have taken advantage of this situation by spending as much of Jared's money as she could. In fact, she didn't even use the money for personal use.Jared sighed repeatedly. He began to think about posting Caroline's photos and videos on his social media accounts to tell the world that his relationship with Caroline was fine. However, he was afraid that his actions would make Caroline feel uncomfortable and even more angry with him."Sir, I have something to talk about." Donny approached; he had a worried look on his face.Ja

    "Mmm, that's..." Shopia could not come up with an explanation. She bit her lower lip as a sign that she was thinking of an excuse. She was not ready to get such a question from Caroline because she had not prepared an acceptable answer."You betrayed me." Caroline said in a disappointed tone. She was about to get up and leave, but Shopia immediately held her back."Carol, I'm sorry. Please don't be angry with me or Donny. I did this because of Mr. Madison's request. All the money I used when shopping with you was not Donny's money, but Mr. Madison's money. He often comes here secretly just to see you. He really loves you." Shopia tried to be convincing."You don't know anything, Shopee. That Uncle Jared is the most hypocritical person I've ever known." Caroline still made an annoyed face."I really don't know anything, and I'm sorry for making you feel disappointed. We're still good friends, right?" Shopia put on a pitiable face. She did not want the situation to get worse if Caro

    “You don’t have to do anything. Because I will never forgive you for anything.” Caroline said with firmness. There was no hesitation at all in her words. The look in her eyes made it clear just how much hatred she had for Jared. “God is all-forgiving. Why can’t you, as his servant, forgive the mistakes of another servant?” Jared still didn’t want to give up. “That’s why I no longer believe in God. Because God was never there when I needed him. Where was God when my parents died? Where was God when I was abused? Where was God when all the hardships came my way? If God does exist, why doesn’t He ever help me? If God does exist, why doesn’t He give me even a little bit of happiness?” Caroline poured out her heart that she had been holding back all this time. Jared was silent as he heard the words that came out of Caroline’s mouth. He understood why Caroline said that, because he knew how hard Caroline’s path had been. “If God exists, he should come when I need help.” Caroline’s t

    "The decision is yours. Only you have the right to determine the course of your life. I can't give you any advice." Donny said after Caroline asked for his opinion on Jared's proposal. Jared had repeatedly asked Caroline to marry him. If she still refuses this time, who knows what will happen in the future? Perhaps Jared would turn around and choose to give up. There is also a limit to one's patience. Being rejected once or twice may still be acceptable; if it has been rejected repeatedly, who can be that patient? Moreover, Jared has power; he is rich and handsome. There are many women who willingly queue up to be chosen by Jared. Caroline will lose if she still chooses to refuse. Where else would she find a man like Jared? "Just accept it, Carol. After all, you love each other; what makes you hesitate?" Shopia commented. Caroline sighed harshly. "I'm not sure if I can make him happy. I don't want to be the reason for other people's sadness and difficulties. Perhaps I am a bad

    Jared was silent with his mouth clamped shut. He was suddenly petrified. Not a single sentence came out of his mouth, because he was too shocked to hear the sentence Caroline gave. He had resigned himself to Caroline's refusal and would never force her again. However, unexpectedly, Caroline happily accepted his invitation to marry. There was not the slightest doubt in Caroline's eyes. She looked very confident. “You're not happy, Uncle?" Caroline broke the embrace. She stared at Jared's face for a long time, the smile on her lips slowly disappearing. "He's too happy to express himself." It was Donny who answered excitedly. The man was very happy, because now Caroline and Jared's love would be united and could no longer be separated. "Thank you, thank you, Caroline." Jared hugged Caroline's body tightly. He really wanted to cry now because he was really happy. There were no words that could describe how he felt right now. After a long wait, his love finally came true. Caroline

    "Good morning, my future husband!" Caroline opened Jared's bedroom door without knocking. She entered with a tray containing a bowl of hot soup and a glass of mineral water. Jared, who saw Caroline enter his room, was suddenly startled and woke up instantly. He got up to sit while covering his body with a blanket. This was because he was used to sleeping without a top on. Caroline smiled broadly. "I've seen it before, so you don't need to cover it from me." Caroline said plainly. Jared felt very embarrassed. He didn't feel confident enough to meet Caroline in that state. His face looked wrinkled because he had just woken up, and his hair was also disheveled. "Let's have breakfast. I'll get ready." Caroline placed the tray on the nightstand. "Get ready, where?" Jared asked in confusion. He hadn't fully regained consciousness after waking up. "After all, we're having a wedding dress fitting, right?" Caroline reminded. "Oh my God, I forgot!" Jared started to rush. "Relax,

    Jared laughed at Jake's words. He felt so intrigued by the lies the man had told. He never thought Jake would make up such a horrible story. No matter what Jake said now, he would never believe it. Because he had already judged Jake as a lying man.Jared wiped his face with both palms. He got back up from the sofa he was sitting on."Do you still have something to talk about? If you're done, please leave. I still have things to do." Jared said firmly.Blood is indeed thicker than water. However, this time Jared sided more with Caroline. Because there was a time when water was needed more than anything else."Uncle, you have to think about this matter very carefully." Jake was still trying to influence his uncle."That's right, Jared. We're all happy that you're thinking of getting married, but not necessarily to Caroline. I can bring you many beautiful women. What kind of woman do you want? A model? Actress? Businesswoman? Lawyer? I can find you any kind of woman you want." Delia trie

    "Yes! We'll leave as soon as possible. I'm really looking forward to spending time with you on the beach and enjoying all the beauty of Bali," Caroline said, feeling equally happy."Me too! Ever since we got here, I've missed you so much.

    After arriving at the car, Jared started the engine and drove the car towards home. On the way, he envisioned the evening he had planned. Caroline must have prepared something special. When he arrived home, Jared opened the door and was greeted with silence. "Caroline?" he shouted, hoping to find his wife in the living room. "Over here, baby!" came Caroline's voice from the kitchen. Jared rushed towards the voice, and when he entered, he saw Caroline standing in the kitchen, wearing an apron, while stirring something in a pot. She smiled when she saw her husband. "You're finally home! I've been waiting," Caroline said, stepping closer. "Sorry to keep you waiting, Caro. It's been a busy day," Jared said, leaning his back against the table. Caroline looked at him understandingly, but there was a hint of longing in her eyes. "I know, but I missed you so much. Dinner is ready; let's eat," she said, trying to cover her sadness with a smile. They sat down at the dining table, and wh

They're only gone for a week," he said, trying to comfort."And you know how it is. Everyone around me is having fun while I'm here," Caroline said in a tone full of unfulfilled expectations."Don't worry, I have a plan," Jared said, trying to distract Caroline. "I'm taking you to a fancy restaurant tonight. We can enjoy some uninterrupted alone time.""A fancy restaurant?" Caroline looked over, a little surprised. "You had it planned?""Yes.

    Aalya was annoyed and dismayed by Brian's nosy attitude. "Do you want me to walk naked on the beach? I don't want to be a crowd pleaser!" she replied, frowning.Brian stifled a laugh, further amused by Aalya's reaction. "Ah, but only I can look at you! Only I can look at you that way," he said as he stepped closer.Aalya felt her cheeks heat up at Brian's words. "Stop making this up! This isn't about that!" she exclaimed, trying to push Brian's body out of the way."Well, I just want to see you glowing on the beach," Brian said, still hugging Aalya. "Imagine how beautiful you'll look in these clothes in the sun!"Aalya tried to push Brian further, but she couldn't help but laugh. "You're so naughty, Brian! This is no time for jokes," she said, shaking her head, but couldn't avoid the smile on her face."So, why not be a little more daring? We're in Bali, baby!"

    It was a sunny day in Perth. Inside the Madison family mansion, Caroline was preparing dinner in the kitchen. She sang her favorite song while stirring the pasta, a smile never leaving her face. Aalya, who was now closer to Caroline, helped by chopping vegetables."Ouch, Aalya, don't cut them too big! It'll be hard to eat," Caroline said with a laugh."I know, I know! Is it small enough?" replied Aalya in a joking tone, showing the cut vegetables that didn't quite meet Caroline's criteria."Yes, yes, good. I just remembered we have to prepare dessert. Do you want to make brownies or chocolate cake?" Caroline asked, getting excited."Brownies! I love brownies! Let's make them!" Aalya replied cheerfully. Their voices filled the kitchen, creating a warm atmosphere in the house.Meanwhile, in the living room, Jared was talking to Brian.
