Today, they managed to gather their resolve to invite Priska Cirillo—a woman they had liked since their first year at high school. A strong woman who succeeded in diverting their world, which had only been concerned with learning and training to prepare themself to become the leader of the Umberbridge mafia organization, replacing their father's position. From Priska, they then met Amanda Chloe—their classmate who was known as a genius pianist (and later he found out that she was the younger sister of Arnold Walter, a hitman from the Walter family whom he has admired for a long time until he followed in his footsteps by honing his skills in shot accurately), and Gerald Tan—Amanda Chloe's childhood friend, who has a housewife-like personality and was now with them in the car after they asked him to accompany them.

Zhen Xin XinHi, everyone! First of all, thank you for reading my story, His Last Wish. I remember when I decided to write His Last Wish, I researched a lot about PTSD to make sure that I would not make this story only by my imagination. I want people to know more about mental health, and how dangerous they could be if the patient themself do not treat their mental health as soon as possible. That was my first goal. Raymond Cooper resembles me so much in many aspects, so I really enjoyed writing it. I hope you enjoy it, too. If you love my story, why don’t you check for my other story on this platform? You can check on my profile, Choosing Between Dragon and Werewolf, and [Son-in-Law]: Our Agreement. With love, Zhen Xin Xin

Raymond Cooper inhaled deeply, then exhaled slowly, enjoying the sensation of the scent produced by the cigarette. His eyes were hidden behind his sunglasses, observing the atmosphere outside the airport. Sitting in the designated smoking area made it a little difficult to do that, but this was much better than having to refrain from smoking until he got to the hotel. The espresso he ordered to keep him awake after the six-hour flight from Morozov city to Cirillo city on Andreas Island was getting cold. Reluctantly, he drank the coffee in one gulp, then stubbed out the remaining cigarette into the cigarette ashtray on the table with a deep sigh. His sturdy, slender hands pulled out a shabby scrap of paper from the brown coat he was wearing. His sensitive nose could still smell the lingering scent of blood on the shabby paper.

It has been two months since he set foot in the town of Cirillo and lived together with a woman named Hazel Skylar. That was after going through a rigorous screening selection from that damn property agent who kept preventing the woman from staying with him. He could not understand why the property agent was so desperately trying to prevent the woman from living with him as if that man was the woman's father. The decision should be in the woman's hands, although he hoped that many of them will accept his offer because it would save the cost of renting the apartment. The man kept giving him a bad image, describing him as a wild beast that could attack her at any time. He had to admit that he had been attracted to her from their first meeting, but that did not mean he was going to attack her like the damn agent's description. He still had his pride. Silently he continued to curse that man's insolence. “I don't think it's good for you to describe someone you just met as you said. I thi

The next day, Raymond decided to leave the house, relaxing his mind after spending nearly two months in his apartment. All the information was complete; he just needed to think about how to approach Amanda Chloe without making that girl suspicious of him. Not only that, but the reason was that he needed a new job. There was no way he could depend on his dwindling savings to survive. The problem was, what job should he take? He only has five years of experience as a police detective. Only that. He could not apply for a job as a policeman in the city of Cirillo either, given the impossible procedure because he was not a Cirillo citizen. He could not think of any options now. There was also no way for him to apply for a job at Ignatius High School, where Amanda Chloe attended. It would arouse her suspicions. After all, it was not like a fictional tale that could easily sneak into the school as a teacher (or a school student, if he is gifted with a baby face that he, unfortunately, did n

It was only a few days ago that he got a job at the cafe where Hazel worked and got new information about the girl, whom Arnold mentioned on the paper he saved. He also spared his time to visit the cafe to observe the girl and the situation. Rachel told him everything she knew about Amanda after he discovered Edward scolding Rachel and her three friends for abdicating responsibility that should have been theirs. He took the opportunity to ask Rachel in exchange for saving them from Edward's tantrum. Luckily, Rachel was a reliable type. And now, his intuition seemed to tell him that Amanda's life was in danger. He was reluctant to follow his intuition because it meant he had to sacrifice his day off, wanting to give his body a moment to rest. Unfortunately, his intuition was always right, so he could not just ignore it. It was thanks to his always precise intuition and keen sense of smell that he was able to get his job as a police detective. Shit. It left him no option. His intui

Seriously?Raymond looked at the boy with glasses who was staring at him sharply on his first day of work and currently standing in front of him after leaving the shop. He had to refuse Martha's offers to drink tea while talking about the past several times before he left the shop and now he regretted his decision. Maybe he should have stayed with his sister if he did not forget the risk he was facing right now. He did not want to involve Martha in his problems. He watched that boy quietly. He did not expect that the friend Amanda was calling was Gerald, although he had to admit that the boy was a reliable type. Why, among all of her friends, Amanda chose Gerald Tan? He thought Amanda would contact Priskaーan athletic girl who was good at sports. Not that he meant to doubt Gerald's abilities, but Raymond felt that Gerald was not

Raymond opened his eyes. In front of him, he saw Hazel's figure with her long dark brown hair draped over her left ear, watching him from a very close distance. As soon as she saw him woken up, Hazel's worried face vanished, changing with relief. He looked around him. He only saw Hazel. Has Martha left? Or did Martha just call the ambulance and leave when the ambulance arrived to pick her up?‘How do you feel? Still hurts?’His body still felt weak from the effects of the anaesthetics. He looked around before his attention fell on Hazel who was sitting next to him. Since when has he been in the clinic? And why was Hazel here?‘Should I call a doctor?’‘No need. I’m fine,’ He took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. Slowly he tried to get up and sat back down with the pillow Hazel quickly put behind him to support his back. Very nice. This was much better than before. Looks like he successfully passed the critical pe

They arrived in front of Amanda Chloe's house. There was no activity in the house, indicating that the girl was at Gerald Tan's house. While continuing to hold onto Hazel's hand that he had not let go of since earlier, they walked past three houses before finally arriving at Gerald Tan's. Almost all the houses here had a similar design because they are located in a residential area, making people a little confused if this was their first time visiting this place and did not pay attention to other details that describe the profile of the owner of the house. For example, Amanda's house has a black gate, while the house in front of her has a white gate with a golden lion carving. Raymond took out his smartphone briefly before putting it back in his pocket to check the time.9 PM. It was still early. Those two should be still awake. A little hesitant, Raymond pressed the button for the bell near the fence.‘Who is that?’ Gerald's voice came from the voi

Raymond gazed at the morning view of the city that could be seen from the balcony of his apartment while enjoying the smell of cigarettes which he inhaled deeply to calm his mind. It looked like Hazel was sleeping in her room because he did not find Hazel when he woke up. Seeing the view of the city made him remember the history lessons he learned when he was in school.In the past, the world was faced with a difficult situation due to wars raging in several Middle Eastern countries, most of which were instigated by extremists. As a result, many residents of that country decided to leave their country, sacrificing their property and citizenship status. Looking for a much safer place for the safety of themselves and their families, they fled to European countries to get what they could not get in their home countries: security.At first, the European countries welcomed them with open arms out of sympathy, but over time, the number of refugee

The sound of the five children running down the hall made Raymond subconsciously give a small smile as he looked at them. The joy of the children seemed to provide a much more pleasant atmosphere amid the crowd of hospital patients, mostly elders. Few patients were the same age as him, and it did not take them to stay long, either. Unlike them. The children laughed loudly before finally falling silent when a female nurse scolded them for making a fuss. Their happy faces faded, followed by their languid heads. He, who had just finished the hospital administration process, only shook his head slowly, approaching the children and also the female nurse who was still busy scolding them with repeated words.'Let them go,' Raymond's left hand moved to caress one of the children's head with long straight hair, dark brown, which was flo

Verdict placed a bouquet of flowers on the tombstone of his adoptive brother, closed his eyes while forming a cross in front of his chest. Beside him, Amanda stood there, staring at the tombstone with the name Arnold Walter engraved. There were no special words engraved on the tombstone other than the name and date of death. His hand looked for Amanda's and held it tightly, calming his girlfriend, who was starting to cry.'Brother. I don't know whether you can hear me or not, but I want to introduce the most special person in my life right now,' he said, glancing at Amanda, who was wiping her tears while sobbing. 'This is Amanda Chloe, your younger sister and my girlfriend. I know what you would say if you were still alive. You definitely won't like it if you know about this. If you are still alive and able to meet Amanda, you

He spent more than two weeks lying in a very uncomfortable hospital bed, staring at the scenery outside the window. He heard the screeching sound of birds perched on one of the windows of his room as if trying to greet him with their innocent faces. He continued to watch the birds until they left the window, following their friends. Next to his bed, he found Hazel, who was slicing an apple for him even though he had refused many times as he had lost his appetite. As soon as she finished peeling, the woman tucked the apple into his mouth. Reluctantly, he devoured the apple, chewed it in silence. 'I respect your decision, Raymond.' He winced in confusion at Hazel's sudden words. Chewing on his apple, he turned his gaze from the window towards the woman who was now giving him a second bite. 'Huh? What are you talking about?' &nbs

It seemed like it was not time for him to die yet. That was the only conclusion he could think of as soon as he opened his eyes, staring at the completely white ceiling of the room. The sunlight that entered the room through the window of his room made his eyes dazzled. There were many life support devices attached to his body, making it difficult for him to move freely. His breathing was a little short due to the mechanical ventilator to help him breathe. His eyes were fixed on a woman dressed as a nurse who was checking his IV line. 'Mr Cooper? Have you regained consciousness?' the woman turned her body, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him. His eyes were only fixed on the uniform that was so tightly wrapped around the woman's body, exposing the woman's curves. He did not answer the woman's question, closed his eyes again.

Raymond looked at Thyme and Verdict, who were still where they were. Thyme remained calm, although he caught a hint of anxiety on their cute face. Meanwhile, Verdict has lost control of his emotions after seeing one of his members killed by Simon. He was struggling to free himself from Simon's men while continuing to curse Simon. But Simon seemed not to care about Verdict's anger. His other hand, which was not holding the revolver, clenched his hands into fists. He was trying to remain calm against the man, who was still waiting for his answer. "What's the catch?" He remained calm. "If you join me, everyone in this place will be released." Raymond narrowed his eyes, doubting Simon's words, which did not sound convincing in his ears. Simon absolutely did not mention the conditions if he refused the offer. His attention turned to Edward. "I wondered what kind of joke I would have as soon as I came here. Rather, I found something beyond my expectations, eh?" Edward looked up, lo

'Ed, I'm fine. Seriously. So can you stop worrying about me?'Edward ignored his question, still keeping a close eye on his entire body which succeeded in making him feel awkward to death.'This is my fault. I shouldn't have let you fight that person alone,' Edward now pulled his body away from Raymond, took out his hologram tablet, then stared at the screen of his hologram tablet while muttering to himself.'Could I ask you something?''Shoot.''About Mike ... can you t

As soon as the gaseous effect disappeared, Raymond gave the cue to go inside, running while avoiding the gunfire of Simon's men who were manning the passageways they were currently in, along with Edward and Lucas. Meanwhile, the rest have scattered, following his directions. Each of the people he appointed as leader had already brought the tools Hazel had given them as a preventive measure and instructed them to search for the children in the basement while he, Lucas, and Edward moved toward the second floor.'Raymond?' Edward whispered nearby, looking anxious, as soon as they reached the second floor, hiding behind a wall refilling their depleted ammunition.'What?' Raymond peeked outside, to find Simon's men moving their way. He came ou

Raymond turned off the engine, watching Thyme and Verdict, who had entered the building from afar. Thyme asked him to park his car a little bit far from Simon Clive's headquarters, which was now filled with luxury-clad people who flocked into the building, greeted by several people dressed in black with a terrifying aura around them. He recognized some of those who were attacking him when he was with Edward. Over and over he tapped his fingers, frustrated at not knowing Thyme's plans.'Do you want to have some?' Hazel who was sitting behind him handed him the snack bar that the woman had been consuming. 'I made it by myself. Low in calories, but enough to power you up.''No. I don't—' Raymond gave up his refusal as soon as he saw Hazel gl
