Catherine had just returned from lunch with Alan. They parted ways in the office lobby. And now Catherine is walking towards her room after getting out of the elevator.
Catherine walked a little dreamily until her gaze widened to see someone standing near her secretary's desk. Having lost focus, her body suddenly swayed in shock and almost fell backwards if someone did not swiftly grab her waist as well as hold her arm.
The two of them locked eyes with each other.
Aiden....
Try as he might to suppress his own feelings and try to forget, his defenses would eventually crumble and he would fall back into his own feelings of love.
Aiden helped Catherine stand upright and released her hold. Catherine cleared her throat slightly and kept her distance from Aiden. She turned her gaze in another direction. It just so happened that her secretary had not yet returned from her lunch.
Is there a problem, Mr. Aiden? Catherine asked.
Y
Catherine had just come out of her house. She looked up at the sky as snowflakes fell to the ground. She raised her palm until the snowflakes touched the skin of her hand.Before she knew it, it was already winter, and the first snow had fallen.While enjoying the first snowfall, suddenly someone stood in front of her, making her look at that someone. "Alan?" Catherine exclaimed.Hi, good morning," he said with a big smile. "You? Why are you here?" asked Catherine, frowning.I came here on purpose to take you to the office," Alan said.But the direction to the office is different from yours," said Catherine. "No problem. Let me take you to the office," said Alan, pulling Catherine's wrist and getting into Alan's car.A car stopped in the distance, and the driver was watching Catherine get into Alan's car. Both of his hands were gripping the steering wheel.What's wrong wit
Knock knock knockThe door opened to reveal the face of Aiden, who had just woken up. "Hi." "Oh hi Eve!" Aiden exclaimed, ruffling his hair.Evelyn was transfixed at the door to see Aiden wearing only his white boxer briefs and revealing his six-pack, muscular, naked body. His disheveled hair made him look so sexy."Evelyn!" The exclamation woke Evelyn up from her mesmerized trance. "Eh?" "What's up?" asked Aiden, leaning against the doorframe and looking so stunning and tantalizing. Evelyn's hands wanted to play on his muscular chest, and it would be so warm to be in his arms. "I made pancakes for you for breakfast," Evelyn said. "Can I come in?" Aiden made way for Evelyn. "Come in, Eve." Evelyn walked into Aiden's apartment. She looked around the apartment; it looked so neat. Aiden was a man, but he took very
William now stood with his back to Catherine, showing his arrogance.Tell me why you just canceled your engagement with Robert?" asked William, who now turned towards Catherine. "Who is that man in the photo?"I don't like Robert, and he just wants to use me to seize all the power belonging to our family." "Really? Isn't it because you had an affair? asked William. "Behave yourself, Catherine. You are a lady of the SR Group. Don't disgrace our family's good name!"I didn't have an affair. That man was the one who saved me from Robert's abuse! Catherine exclaimed. "What? But Robert said that you dumped him because of him." Catherine sighed.Father, I have always obeyed you. Whatever you said, I always did. Do I have to deceive you like this? For what, do I have a reason to rebel? Catherine asked, making William sigh.My daughter, I'm sorry. William walked over to Catherine and took her i
Aiden was in a taxi. He intended to return to Indonesia and manage the Wiratama company. It was hard, but he couldn't continue to stay here without any work.He stared out of the window. His mind wandered back to last night, when he kissed Catherine. He felt an invisible hand squeezing his chest at that precise moment and immediately wanted to cry.But Aiden didn't want to take the risk and hurt Catherine even more. He himself now doesn't believe in love and is afraid to build a relationship. What if it failed and he hurt Catherine even more? Who had hoped for him?Aiden's gaze caught a familiar figure.Not far on the other side, Jasmine had just gotten out of a car with a woman. That woman was Catherine.Wait a minute," Aiden ordered the taxi driver, who had stopped his car.Catherine was seen hugging Jasmine and kissing her cheek. Afterwards, Jasmine was seen walking towards the school gate, waving her hand at Catherine.They're really close," Aiden muttered.Aiden was about to ask
Jasmine was in the middle of surgery. Aiden was standing by the door of the operating room. Catherine sat in a chair.They were both silent to each other without wanting to make a sound to each other.After spending several hours there, the light above the operating room door turned green.Following the doctor out of the operating room was another doctor. Aiden and Catherine rushed over to the doctor.Thankfully, the surgery went well without a hitch. The patient is still under anaesthesia and cannot be seen yet. We will move him to the ward," the doctor explained.They said goodbye, leaving Aiden and Catherine behind.Four people came out wearing surgical gowns and pushed the gurney on which Jasmine was lying.Aiden looked at Jasmine's beautiful face, which was closed.Jasmine, he murmured as he continued to look at Jasmine without turning his gaze away. Tears hung in his reddened eyes.Uncle Tampan.....Call me Mine...She could no longer hold back the tightness in her chest, and sh
"It can't be Aiden, right? Evelyn muttered tearfully in her car.Why does it have to be Aiden?"Evelyn was devastated and hurt. She had long harboured feelings for Aiden. But why is it like this now?The man she considered an asshole was the man she admired the most.Why does it have to be Aiden? She sobbed, feeling very unwilling. ----On the other hand, Catherine was cleaning up the food that Evelyn had dropped.Do you know Eve?" asked Aiden, who was now sitting on the couch in the room.She's my best friend," replied Catherine, throwing the uneatable food into the trash can.You know Eve?" asked Catherine.Yes, she was one of my clients three years ago! Aiden exclaimed.I see," Catherine replied without any suspicion."Thirsty... drink..."They both faintly heard murmuring. Compactly, they both stood up and approached the gurney.Mine! exclaimed Catherine, who stood at
“I'm sorry, Aiden, but I can't accept it," Catherine exclaimed, making Aiden frown. "Cath-"I'm not a doll; I have feelings. And I don't want to live with someone who doesn't even understand their own feelings. I may love you, but I don't need your pity.Catherine moved from her seat and stood with her back to Aiden.Like you said, I can't sell my happiness. Then I'll do it; I want to live happily," Catherine said quietly as tears rolled down her cheeks.She deliberately turned her back to Aiden so he wouldn't see the tears falling down her cheeks.I've had enough pain. Don't pity me anymore," she said in a trembling voice. Catherine looked up to hold back her unshed tears.Regarding Jasmine, even without us getting married, the two of us can take care of her together. I won't forbid you from seeing Jasmine and bringing her to stay at your place. Aiden stared pensively at Catherine's back in front of him."I
Today, Jasmine came home from the hospital. Aiden drove Jasmine and Catherine to Catherine's house.Handsome Uncle, Mine is happy that Uncle keeps Mine company," exclaimed Mine, who sat at the back. Meanwhile, Catherine sat in the front, side by side with Aiden. "Really? Uncle is also very happy to be with mine," said Aiden, making Jasmine smile happily.Catherine glanced through the windscreen. Jasmine's face had never been so bright and cheerful before. Aiden really had a big effect on Jasmine.Realising that, Catherine felt even more guilty for mine. She should not have let her daughter suffer for so long and hidden all this.She then glanced at Aiden, who was focused on driving. She remembers Aiden's marriage proposal that seemed forced or because of Jasmine's wishes. Her heart ached, remembering that.Was she wrong to just want her love to be reciprocated and not pity? Why was it so hard to do that?Catherine sighed
Renata anxiously awaited the man, who the doctor was treating separately. After waiting a few minutes, he came out with the doctor and saw his jacket tucked in his arm, with his left arm bandaged."It's finished?" she asked."Already. Just being fried is not a serious wound. Next time, be careful. There are a lot of thieves around," he said."Thank you very much, Master.""Bastian," he said."Oh yes, Mr. Bastian. I am Renata, and this is my sister-in-law," said Renata."Angela," said Angela, shaking hands with Bastian."You already helped me earlier; how can I repay your help?" she asked."If we meet again, I will collect it," said Bastian, showing his charming smile."I must leave immediately."Renata wanted to speak again, but Bastian had already left the place."Ah, why did he leave so quickly, even though I haven't gotten his cellphone number yet?" Renata said it with a red face."You like it?" asked Angela, who had only been paying attention."His face is handsome, and the look i
Regan, Angela, and Renata have arrived in Denpasar, Bali. They were picked up by someone who brought them to a pavilion near Seminyak Bali Beach in Badung."Wow!" Angela exclaimed, seeing the pavilion close to the beach. So luxurious. Several maids greeted their arrival and immediately carried their cases."Well, how are you, my nephew?" That exclamation made Regan, Angela, and Renata look at the source of the sound. There were several people following a middle-aged man with glasses on his nose."Uncle Key," Regan said, shaking hands with the man who was Davero's father's confidant. "How are you, Roy?""Tsk, thanks to Bang Regan, I'm not doing my course work and overtime," Roy replied, making Regan smile a little.Roy is the son of Key, and he is a very reliable hacker. Even though he is still 20 years old and is currently completing his studies at a university in Bali,."Uncle twins. Where's Uncle Kay?" Renata asked, shaking the man."He's on business. It will come later," said Key.
Angela went down the stairs. When he woke up, Regan was not there beside him. Angela walked towards the kitchen, where Agneta was busy cooking with the household assistant there."Are you awake, son?" asked Agneta with a motherly smile."Yes Bun. Erm, did you see Regan?" she asked."He's jogging, usually to the upper area," explained Agneta, making Angela nod in understanding."Sit down. Mother will make hot tea for you," said Agneta.Ah, no need to bother, Bun.""It does not matter. Sit down," said Agneta, and Angela could only obey while playing on her cellphone, where she was chatting with Rita."Drink," said Agneta, who now took a seat opposite Angela."Thank you, Bun.""Equally love. How was your sleep? rest well?"Yes, Bun, it's quite cool and comfortable here," said Angela."I'm grateful.""Emm Renata is not visible. Is he out?" she asked."Yes. Today is his first day doing COAS," explained Agneta.Oh, Renata is doing koas here." Angela thought she'd be doing koas in London bec
Angela nodded in understanding. Angela only got to know the Regan family when they got married. Aunt Devara is the twin of Regan's father, Davero. Dan Devara is the mother of Calvin, who serves as GM at Regan's company.The car stopped in front of the villa's courtyard, where everyone welcomed them.Angela and Regan both got out of the car."Sis Angela…" Renata first hugged Angela very happily.Then Angela shook hands and hugged Agneta and Devara. Angela shook hands with Dave and also with Kevin, who is Devara's husband.They immediately invited Angela to enter the villa and escorted them both to Regan's room."This is your room," Angela said, looking around. There was a window made of glass, and inside was a miniature Batman with various poses."You like Batman?" asked Angela, approaching the window."Yes, since I was little, I liked to collect them," said Regan, who walked over to Angela and hugged her from behind. Regan kissed Angela's long neck in front of him."Regan…""I missed
Angela was enjoying soaking in soapy water and a massage with aromatherapy in the Jacuzzi. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the treatment.He gasped in surprise when someone joined him. Angela opened her eyes, and her gaze immediately met the sharp eyes of someone who was in front of her at close range."You're not asking me," he said, making Angela smile."You're sleeping," Angela said.Regan kissed Angela on the lips and took a seat beside her. He brought Angela to sit in front of him and let him rest her head on his broad chest. They enjoyed being together by playing with the soap bubbles that filled the Jacuzzi.Neither of them spoke; they both enjoyed each other's company.***Regan and Angela welcomed Ansel there with his colleagues by helicopter."Wow, the faces of the newlyweds are so bright," teased Ansel, who was now standing in front of Regan, who was embracing Angela casually."You really suck at the little cat's juices. So many red marks," he teased when he saw Angela's nec
Regan called someone. Through his cell phone. The body and the bomb had been wrapped in a large plastic bag and kept outside the house.Angela brought a cup of coffee for Regan and kept it on the table."Hello Roy.""….""I have a job for you.""….""Hack again, a subsidiary of Maettheree; lower the share price; let it drop," Regan said with a grin."….""Just do it."Regan hung up on him. Angela was still staring at Regan in confusion."Why?" Regan asked, raising an eyebrow."You want to destroy someone's company?" asked Angela, quite surprised, and Regan just chuckled."This is a new subsidiary company. At least a few million dollars in loss," Regan answered lightly."That's not bad," Angela said, making Regan chuckle again."That's payback for him, who has disturbed our honeymoon. Come sit down; let's watch an exciting show," Regan said, patting the sofa beside him.Angela took a seat beside Regan. They both looked at the laptop screen in front of them."Gosh, there are so many peo
BritainBenneit was reading some of the reports that Aluna had given him at the office. Soon there was a knock on the door."Enter…"Gilberd appeared there. Seeing Gilberd's presence, Aluna said goodbye and left Benneit's room."What is it?" asked Benneit as Gilberd took a seat across from Benneit."I've managed to find out who Fergus's supporters are," Gilberd said, and Benneit listened seriously."This really can't be taken lightly.""Who?""Mr. Julian from Switzerland." Benneit fell silent after hearing Gilberd's narrative. Mr. Julian is a big beacon for Britain and a big competitor for Gonemanus. Julian was no one else either; the man was Benneit and Dave's college friend. Something happened in the past between his family and the Wiratama family."Ben-?""Send some guards to the island where Regan and Angela are on their honeymoon. I'm afraid Julian will send assassins to their place," Benneit said, to which Gilberd nodded."I have to tell Dave.""So far, I haven't seen any movem
After breakfast, Angela ran to Regan, who was on the beach."I'm ready," Angela said, making Regan turn around, and he was quite surprised to see Angela wearing a sexy bikini with a thin cloth tied around her waist."Where are you going wearing clothes like that?" Regan asked, looking at his wife, who looked seductive. Black glasses perched on her head, and her hair was in beautiful, loose waves."I want to swim, like you promised yesterday. Today we didn't swim because it was fun playing on a speed boat," said Angela, turning her face red."Are there no other clothes?" she asked."Come on, Regan. At first, I didn't want to wear a swim suit.""What?" Regan looked irritated."He he… I knew you would be furious; that's why I put on this bikini. After all, it's just the two of us on this island.""Okay. I'll let you this time," Regan said, making Angela nod happily.They boarded the speed boat, and Regan returned to driving it."Regan, I want to ride it," Angela said.Regan pulled Angela
That morning, Angela woke up first and left Regan, who was still asleep. He plans to cook breakfast for both of them. Angela turned on music from her cell phone and started preparing all the ingredients to make breakfast. He also took out flour to make bread.Angela started working on it and got flour stuck to her cheeks. Somehow it stuck to her face, maybe because Angela was too passionate about cooking.Regan came out of the room wearing only boxer shorts and shirtless. He saw his wife so engrossed in dancing and singing along with the song. Regan smiled at Angela's adorable behavior. Angela is seen wearing Regan's oversized white shirt, where the arms are folded up to the elbows. Her long hair was rolled up to reveal her slender neck.Angela was seen mixing the dough in a fairly large place. He squealed in surprise when strong hands hugged him from behind and joined in stirring the dough with sensual movements as if to provoke Angela."Already up?" she asked."Hmmm…" Regan snorted
