That morning, the courthouse was packed. Reporters crowded in front of the entrance, carrying cameras and microphones, ready to capture every moment that happened inside and outside the court. Tiara Jacob's name had now become a magnet for public attention, and this latest hearing was the culmination of a long drama that had captured everyone's attention.

A black car with tinted glass pulled up in front of the courthouse. Tiara stepped out with a pale face, wearing large sunglasses to cover her puffy eyes. A tight escort of security guards surrounded her, trying to prevent the reporters who kept pressing closer.

“Are there that many of them now?” asked Tiara with a look of disbelief.

The crowd of journalists who immediately swarmed her made her feel attacked from all directions. Hendry immediately asked for help from the court's security guards so that no one would disturb Tiara. But still, as soon as Tiara got out of the car almost everyone pointed their cameras and microphones at he

    “We can go home now, Miss Helena,” Albert said as he tidied up each of the files still scattered across the table. The man had often felt the euphoria of victory in the trials he participated in but this time, Albert felt that his victory really felt perfect.Helena's face, which had been watching the perpetrator who finally admitted everything without exception, not even denying anything that was shown as evidence of his crime, was completely satisfied. Maybe because the loss Helena felt was big enough to make her keep moving forward, no matter there were many things that had to be sacrificed including her time and activities managing the company.But it was all worth it for what she got today.“Ah, you're right.” Helena smiled slightly. She glanced once more at the bench Tiara had been sitting on. The woman had been led out of the courtroom with her face down. There would be a further hearing for the verdict and the fate of Andy and Rudi as much of their testimonies had to be studie

    Their journey back to the office was uneventful. In fact, if Helena could be honest, this trip felt good. Perhaps it was because the biggest burden had been passed despite the drama. Helena could plan her life much more clearly than before.One thing was for sure, she wouldn't look away from Nakia Group. For her, Nakia is like her lifeblood. She would not waste the many things that had happened there, including the enthusiasm of the staff working under her instruction.“I've booked the restaurant,” Wilna informed as she put her tablet into her bag. “Please make sure Mr. Albert and the team come to the banquet, Helena. You have no objection to this, do you?”“Why would I have any objections?” Helena chuckled. “Their help is really reliable. And I think Mr. Tommy Andreas deserves an invite, too.”“You invited my father?” asked Michael, shifting his seat slightly. He looked at Helena quizzically.“Yes. Thanks to him, everything Tiara was hiding was uncovered in time. Although it could ha

    Deny Jacob's hands were shaking. All the files Hendry had given him had left him speechless. Including how Rudi and Sean suddenly appeared at Tiara's final trial.“So... nothing can be done for Tiara?” asked Deny in a shaky voice. “At least appeal? So that her sentence can be reduced?”“You can't, Mr. Deny. Everything has been decided and the trial is reserved for Sean, Rudi, and... You.”Deny let out a long sigh. If those two names were presented in the trial, it was unlikely that he would not be implicated. It was also impossible for him not to move to protect his daughter but what power? Deny was already in the detention center before he could come up with a plan to save his daughter and granddaughter from prosecution.“Did you talk to Tiara after the verdict?”Hendry shook his head slowly. “I haven't had time to meet Miss Tiara yet. I have a lot to take care of, especially regarding the Jacob Group. As your company's legal counsel, I'm responsible for taking care of some things. I

    “That's what Mr. Deny suggested, Miss Tiara,” Hendry said with a long sigh. His days behind him were really tough. Apart from having to accompany Deny Jacob to attend further hearings related to his daughter's case, Hendry has also been involved with the mass media several times. Revealing several things that he felt were sufficient to defend his client. As well as taking care of the Jacob Group so that it can continue to run.The only person who could be asked for help after all this happened was Deny Jacob's sister. She was very difficult to ask for help. It wasn't so much about getting paid for taking care of the Jacob Group, but also how Luna Jacob was approved as the temporary guardian of Andy Tan, Tiara Jacob's son.Plus Tiara and Arslan's divorce, which should have been hidden from the mass media but instead had been spread and used as material to continue to top the search rankings in many social media. Beating the political issues that were heating up, as well as some quite s

    The story begins three years in the past. The moment Helena left the Edison residence and handed over the leadership of Nakia Group to Wilna, her most trusted assistant and friend.***“Are you sure?” I asked once again. I had no problem with Helena leaving Nakia for something important-continuing her graduate studies. But Helena leaving to catch the love of a man who came from an ordinary background. Oh, really. I have no problem with any man having a relationship with my best friend. It's just... to make Helena leave home and hide her identity?Isn't that too much?“Why am I not sure?” Helena smiled widely. “I don't just let Nakia out of my sight anyway.”“That's not the issue, Helena,” I said with a long sigh. "It's about you releasing Edison's status in favor of a man named Arslan Tan. Are you sure you've made sure he's a good man? Treats you well? Loves you sincerely?” I really had my doubts about this but what else could I say when Helena's eyes really radiated great love.“Take

    “Looks like you're already drunk.”I looked at the person who said that nonsense sarcastically. “I'm not drunk yet,” I retorted, putting down the glass rather rudely. It was filled with vodka, which I had downed without a trace. But I wasn't satisfied yet. I don't know how long I've been in this bar, but this place is quite pleasant. It's not like a noisy bar that makes my head spin.Golden Bar is where Thomas usually goes when he has business meetings. I used to make reservations here for him. I read on some websites that Golden Bar is one of the few exclusive bars that offers a place to enjoy alcohol in a quiet atmosphere. The safety and privacy of this place is guaranteed. And because I made reservations for Thomas so often, I got a lot of vouchers. And now, I'm using those vouchers. If I used my own money, I don't know how much money I would have spent just to enjoy a glass of vodka.“You've already finished almost five glasses.”I scowled. “Who are you to tell me to stop?” I pour

    “Put this on.”Ugh! This man in front of me is really annoying. Can't a day go by without a coercive tone coming out of his lips? Ever since he found me in the park, what comes out of his mouth is always in a coercive tone.Just like now. He threw me a set of his sleeping clothes. I just stared in doubt but...“Quickly shower and change your clothes.” Thomas gave an exasperated look. “You're like a dog that lost its master in the middle of the forest.”“Oh my, Mr. Thomas. I already refused your offer and could have gone home by taxi. But you forced me to follow you home, didn't you?”Thomas made no more sound except to give me a disapproving look. All I could do was walk away from him-to the bathroom. It was true what he said. I needed a shower and a change of clothes. My whole body was wet and I didn't realize I was shivering from the cold.“You use the guest room. Make yourself at home. I won't leave the room because it's so late. There are many important meetings tomorrow, right? T

    They say that the best cure for a broken heart is to be busy at work, working overtime, and not remembering time except when you eat and come home and fall asleep. It seems like a good idea unless you have a family that is quite sensitive to what's going on with you.Really. It can't be ignored for too long.Maybe yesterday-when I ended up staying at my best friend's brother's house, I was able to avoid a lot of questions from Uncle Jack, Aunt Merry, and Lily too. But it's been three days and I've also made a lot of cancellations related to my wedding that will be held soon. They must be wondering what really happened to me.“Wilna.”If Aunt Merry had called me in that tone, I knew what would happen next. Interrogation. And sure enough. As I sat in the living room after dinner, after I had taken a shower and unwound a little from the many meetings and reports that had piled up at Nakia, Aunt Merry sat down beside me.She brought me a cup of lemon tea and her not-so-sweet homemade cake

    “LOOK WHAT YOU DID!”King winced in pain. Occasionally rubbing his ear and his waist which he felt ... “My waist must be blue. My ear is about to fall off again. Not to mention my arm that got scratched by your nails. You really deliberately sharpened your nails to hurt me.”“Shut up!” Gadis pouted in annoyance. Even though she was wearing a seat belt, she deliberately raised her legs onto the passenger seat. Her eyes would not give a friendly look to the man sitting next to her. Controlling the steering wheel and concentrating a little on the road to Bogor. Also ... pressing the gas pedal a little because they wasted a lot of time because of the Forest King Kingkong.“Shut up, how?” Kingkong chuckled. ‘Besides, if the ring is already on your finger, you can't run away, Pasaraya.”“You're really a bastard, huh!”“What do you mean, bastard?’ King straightened his thick hair. He adjusted his seat a little and then concentrated on the steering wheel again. “Instead of you being angry all

    Feeling like the center of attention again, King just laughed. “Oh my goodness, I'm sorry to bother you. Please continue. I'll just wait here.” But he walked over to Gadis's parents. He respectfully greeted them and then sat in the chair provided by Guy. “What's going on?” he asked in a half-whisper.“Gadis's ex-boyfriend is here. He wants his case dropped.” Lanang stared hatefully at the man, who was still flanked by his parents. ‘I just want to hit him!”King chuckled. ’Patience, bro. Patience. It doesn't always have to be solved with violence.”Tommy cleared his throat quite strongly. After the disturbance that came to interrupt them a little, he had to finish his business in this place immediately. He wouldn't waste any time because the lawyer who was helping Gadis's case kept urging the police to schedule a trial immediately. Tommy never imagined what would happen to Angga. How would his job go, wh

    [King: We're leaving to Bogor at 2 pm. Lo, are you ready? I don't want to wait. Afandi, pick up Lisa. This meeting, no one should be late.]The message was sent when Gadis was already fast asleep. She had a beautiful dream in which she was in Banda Neira, enjoying how God created that place so beautifully. Gadis didn't want to end the dream right away. This weekend, she returned to her parents' house. She also prepared to attend a work meeting with several other GreenTech branch offices spread across several cities, although not as big as the one in Jakarta. But GreenTech continues to grow and spread its wings.There were several representatives from the King division who had to attend the meeting, including Lisa and Gadis. Risna had already been there a few months before Gadis joined GreenTech. Harry and Panji were in the same class as Risna at the work meeting.Luckily, Gadis was used to getting up early. Although reluctant to leave,

    Even though it was Gadis's days at GreenTech again—fun and certainly busy besides having to keep arguing with King, there was also a lot of work she had to do. Especially related to King's latest project. Her boss and eternal enemy never gave her team a break to quickly finish what had been distributed. Among the most annoying things, King didn't tolerate mistakes.Gadis ... always had to endure King's anger because there was always something wrong. Even if it was small, for a perfectionist like King, it wasn't allowed to happen.“Damn it!” Gadis immediately pulled out her desk chair. ‘Damn you, Kingkong!’ she scolded as she sat down roughly, not caring that the sound of her butt hitting the seat was quite annoying. If only Gadis's weight was a bit too much, maybe the desk chair could break.“Hi,” Tania warned, giggling. ”Be patient, Dis. Be patient. Getting angry makes you age faster and realize how things feel.&r

    “You really don't care if you make people miserable,” Lilo laughed excitedly. He even held his stomach, which suddenly cramped from laughing so much this afternoon. ”No wonder they call you crazy.”“Not crazy bucin, Lo,” interrupted Mario who didn't want to lose. ‘Bulol. Stupid bucin.”“I'm not stupid, huh,’ King snapped. ”I still have the sanity to behave normally, even though the situation is reversed according to what I want.”“Angga is the stupid one, Mario. You can't understand the situation, can you?” Lilo was still laughing at Mario's remark. “But people like Angga need to be taught a lesson. I haven't heard the latest news about the arrest of that guy.”“It won't be long before it gets out, you know.” King grinned slightly. The glass of soda was almost empty. He had no intention of refilling it, and anyway, there was only a plate left of his

    “Aunty, I thought you were going to be a long time coming, Dis,” Priska approached Gadis who had just gotten out of the car. Her son's beloved vehicle, which no one was allowed to touch carelessly, was simply handed over by Gadis who appeared behind the wheel. Gadis's beautiful face made a big smile greet Priska's greeting.“King was so fussy, saying he didn't want to keep Auntie waiting,” replied Gadis, half grumbling. Originally, Gadis's lips were a little itchy because she called King by his real name. Being used to calling him Kingkong made Gadis feel uncomfortable. Even so, Gadis still knew how to behave, especially since she was dealing with King's mother.“That child,” Priska snapped. ”He shouldn't bother you when you're driving.”“Well, that's how his Auntie is.”Priska laughed. From the beginning of her acquaintance with Gadis and her strange relationship with her son, Priska had to rub

    “Good afternoon.”Budi had expected that there would be guests coming to visit his house. Including two men in full uniform with attributes. There was no commotion, but it had attracted the attention of the neighbors. Because it seemed that the lawyer and the police who came to the house were not joking and were acting exactly like Gadis's words that had suddenly gone viral on various social media.“Good afternoon, sir.” Budi greeted them warmly. His wife did the same even though she looked frightened and worried. For a while, Sheila was not allowed to leave the house for her safety and to protect her from the bad things that could have happened.Before long, a conversation between them took place. Budi didn't want to draw too much attention by speaking as loudly as possible to cause a commotion. He wanted the matter to be resolved peacefully as soon as possible. If his child was indeed guilty, he had to take full responsibility because e

    “All the reports and evidence that Ms. Gadis brought, I have submitted to the authorities. And I have also issued a summons to summon them and hold them accountable for their actions.” Albert looked furious after hearing Gadis's story during a casual conversation with Hendi just now.It's not that, in Albert's eyes, a man like Angga is nothing more than a coward hiding behind a sense of responsibility. Even though it was not a form of male responsibility, but rather the mental murder of a girl who sincerely loved him. Fortunately, Gadis Parasayu was able to escape Angga's clutches. Maybe that also made the man feel hurt and resentful of the treatment of his ex-lover. He felt that if he went viral with his past story with Gadis, it could attract sympathy and make Gadis be humiliated on social media.“Thank you very much, Mr. Albert.” Gadis looked at the man who she thought was about the same age as Mr. Ubud with a sympathetic look. ”I reall

    “I don't know what to say, Dis,” said Manda, shaking her head in disbelief. ‘You are so lucky to be able to get away from that jerk. Oh my gosh, I can't imagine if you ended up marrying him.”“Terrified, aren't you?’ Lily rubbed her own shoulder to get rid of the sudden feeling of discomfort. ”But actually I feel sorry for him too.”“Me too, actually,” said Gadis quietly. ”I don't know if Sheila knows this or not, but clearly all the accounts that made reports on Twitter also caused a stir, and they came from her account. Lilo also helped to get the cellphone that was used and ... connected to the bastard.”“You really have to reply without thinking anymore, sir. It's too much in my opinion.” Manda said with great enthusiasm. Her eyes seemed to be blazing but not just to encourage Gadis, but to retaliate for whatever that jerk did.Assisted by Lilo and King, they tracked d
