Thirty minutes, Dominic just came out of the bathroom. He could see Lyra already lying on the bed, almost completely covered by the blanket. Her log messy hair spreading on the pillow. Dominic can’t see her face because of Lyra’s back to him. So Dominic didn’t know if Lyra was asleep or not. Would Lyra be able to sleep after he said such harsh words?
“Lyra,” Dominic called her. There was no reply, not even the slightest movement.
“Are you asleep?” asked Dominic again to confirm. Still no answer. Dominic stepped closer, confirming one more time. And Lyra was asleep. Her eyes were closed, her lips parted, breathing regularly. Dominic could see the tear marks on her cheeks. He felt even more guilty now.
Dominic put on his pajama, then lay down beside Lyra on the bed. He held her close, careful not to wake Lyra, then whispered in her ear, “I’m sorry, Lyra. I always make you cry. And sorry for ... always letting you down.” Dominic released h

Arsen did not lie with his current condition. He is really sick. Fever to be exact. It’s just a normal fever, but his condition is a little more severe because Arsen doesn’t want to eat and take medicine since yesterday. It was true what Lyra said. Arsen didn’t want to be taken care of by anyone but that woman.Creak.Arsen’s closed eyes opened at the sound of the door opening. He looked slowly. Arsen could see Lyra walking fast. It wasn’t very clear. His vision had become a little blurry because of this damn fever.“Tsk! I knew you’d be like this!” Very upset to see Arsen lying weak, wanting no help. Lyra sat right next to Arsen and put the back of her hand on his forehead. Arsenic’s face was completely red. Lyra glared when she felt the temperature on Arsen.“Your body temperature is very high! And you still don’t want to be treated by anyone? Are you crazy, Arsen?!
Ever since Arsen said that, Lyra had a thought. She couldn’t sleep now. After all, it was past midnight. “Actually, I’m also very curious. I don’t really need to know about Dominic’s past with his ex. But still, do I need to find out? I have to talk to Adara? But where does she live now in France? I don’t know either.” That night, Lyra fell asleep uncomfortably.***“Sel.” Lyra looked at Selina with her puppy eyes.“What? What do you want? You must be up to something. I can tell when I see the look in your eyes.”“Hehe.” Selina rolled her eyes.“What? What do you want? Please don’t make things difficult for me, Lyra.”“It won’t be too much trouble for you. I promise.”“Yeah, what? blurt it.”“Seduce Tristan, so that the man will tell you where Adara lives, will you? Please...
Selina and Tristan exchanged glances. Selina’s heart beat faster when she saw Tristan’s seductive smile, as well as the deep gaze he gave her. Seriously, there was something about Tristan that was so attractive to her. Do not know what it is, but Selina tried to get rid of that thought because it already crossed the line for her. “W-what do you mean?” Selina cursed in her heart because she was too nervous, she always stuttered. She even closed her eyes when Tristan approached. Until there is no distance between them. Selina could feel their thighs rubbing against each other under the grey blanket. Tristan was silent, enjoying the beautiful scenery in front of him. This face without makeup looks so charming in Tristan’s eyes. ‘Pretty.’ Her eyelashes are quite thick and long, though not as long as his. Her skin was as white as milk. She looked so adorable with her cheeks flushed because Selina was embarrassed. Tristan was sure tha
Thud!Selina’s body almost fell backward because Lyra suddenly hugged her tightly with all her strength. “L-Lyra, let me go. You’re choking me!” Selina tried to push the body away.“Kyaaaa! You are my best friend ever, Sel! It’s not in vain that you become my best friend!” Lyra said as she continued to tighten the hug.“Lyra! Let me go.” Lyra chuckled a little.Chu.She kissed Selina’s cheek once. “Tristan, gave the information to you straight away? Wow, he’s that weak for you?” Lyra seemed very excited to hear Selina’s story. But Selina rolled her eyes instead. But Lyra was even more suspicious and excited because Selina’s cheeks suddenly turned red.“Your cheeks are turning red! Did something happen?”“Tsk! Keep your face away!” Selina didn’t want to talk about what happened yesterday to Lyra
“Why so sudden?!” His voice rose. There was an angry look there.“I actually wanted to tell you about this from a few days ago. But we were in a cold war at the time. I’m too lazy to talk to you. So I’m telling you now.”“No. I’m won’t permit you.”Lyra almost glared. “What? Why? You can’t do that. I really want to go. You can’t just stop me, Dominic.”“I’m your husband, Lyra! Of course, I can forbid you!” Lyra didn’t have time to argue because Dominic stood up straight away.“Don’t argue with me,” Dominic said stubbornly. He left the room. Leaving Lyra, who could only sigh deeply.“I still have to go there. I want to find out. It’s your fault why you didn’t want to tell me. I’ll go find out myself.”***Dominic kept himself busy in his private room. H
“Haa...” Adara took a deep breath. She had been told by Dominic—her brother—that Lyra would come here with Zachery. She had been told the scenario of how she should face Lyra later.“See, now I have to lie again to keep Dominic safe.” Adara shook her head in annoyance.“Why is my brother’s life so complicated?”Adara looked at the clock in her hand. “What time will they be here?” Adara had predicted that Lyra would come today. But don’t know what time. She had just asked that before the doorbell rang.Ding Dong.“Oh, is that them?” Adara rushed forward. Looking at the monitor screen and it was true, it was Lyra together with Zachery, who was holding Lyra’s hand. Adara smiled to see her nephew. “Ah, he’s just getting more handsome.”Ding Dong.The bell rang again. Lyra seemed impatient. Adara could also see
“What?” Lyra’s gaze only grew more serious. Her heart beats twice as fast.“Yes, Dominic had a terrible past love, I would say. He has always been very cold to women. He always does. He doesn’t like the touch of women and hates them. Do you know the story about his parents?”‘His parents?’ No, Lyra knows nothing important from the man.“No. I’m not. Can you tell me?”Adara nodded her head in understanding. “Her mother died from suicide.”Badum!Lyra’s heartbeat seemed to stop that very second. “W-what? Y-you’re not kidding, right? Tell me you just kidding.”Adara shook her head. “No. I’m not joking at all. You can see the honesty and seriousness in my gaze.” Yes, it is right. Lyra could see it. And she was sure that Adara was speaking the truth.“But why? Why did she kill herself?&
Lyra and Zachery had returned. Dominic picked them up at the airport. There was a hint of panic in Dominic’s gaze. Especially when Lyra’s figure came into view. They walked over to Dominic. Dominic wondered. ‘What is Lyra thinking right now?’Judging from her expression, Lyra looked fine. There was no trace of sadness on that beautiful face at all. ‘Adara really said nothing strange, did she?’ Adara sometimes always acts as she pleases. It was very difficult to arrange. Tristan’s words to him were true.“Daddy!” Zachery let go of Lyra’s hand and ran towards his daddy. Dominic’s smile grew as his son drew closer. He spread his arms. He lowered his body to welcome Zachery’s embrace.Thud!“Ugh!” Zachery hugged him too, excited.“I miss you!”Dominic just chuckled at that. “Did you have fun in Paris?” Zachery nodded
