"Is something on your mind?" Tiara asked, looking curious. Since her fiancé picked her up in the office lobby, he'd been looking a bit burdened. On the way home, Arslan didn't say much. He just went along with all of Tiara's complaints. Normally, even though his tone was a bit annoying, Tiara always knew that Arslan was listening to her.

But this time, Arslan was acting differently. Even after they got to the Tan family house, where Mirna and Yori had made a special dinner, Arslan still looked a bit out of place.

"Honey, Ar... Arslan."

Arslan blinked in response to Tiara's voice. Then he looked at the person he was talking to, who had been standing close by. From the look in Tiara's eyes, Arslan could tell she wanted an explanation. Maybe it was because he'd been so focused on the production issue that suddenly fell apart.

"Nothing." Arslan gave a little smile, trying to calm Tiara down a bit. Try not to let on to his future wife about what happened at Intel Corp. Although Arslan thou

    "Am I disturbing you?" Thomas enquired, picking up the snacks on the table. But just as he was about to swallow, he had the feeling that someone was watching him. When Wilna glanced over, it seemed like she wasn't too happy about Thomas eating the snacks she'd prepared for Helena."No problem, right?" Thomas asked, without any sense of guilt. "Is it okay if I eat this, Wilna?"Wilna tried to be patient. She couldn't go against Thomas, who was also her superior. "No problem, Mr. Thomas. No problem. I'll get Miss Helena something else to snack on." But every now and then, Wilna had to speak up a little more forcefully to deal with Thomas' behavior. "Because Miss Helena usually wants an afternoon snack. Miss Helena's pregnancy has meant a few changes to her diet."Thomas didn't say anything. "I forgot my sister was pregnant.""What's the reason for your visit, Thomas? Don't you have a lot of client meetings?"Helena just gave Thomas's childish behavior a quick once-over. She thought he w

    "Do you think I should stop by and see Papa?" Tiara wanted to double-check one more time before letting Arslan drive the car out of the house area. Since her future husband got a call from his father, Tiara's feelings have been all over the place. Arslan's face was also more wrinkled and he looked stressed.At least Tiara wanted to help Arslan relieve some of the pressure he was feeling, even if she didn't know what was causing it."No need." Arslan tried to smile to reassure Tiara. It wasn't that he didn't want to invite Tiara, but he thought it would be better if she wrapped up with Deny Jacob and Warren first. On top of that, he wanted to show that he could still handle the problems that came up.That includes this unexpected incident."Okay then." Tiara was trying to show some flexibility. "I was asked by your mother to stay overnight. There are still a few things we need to discuss, particularly regarding Yori. You know, I get the feeling that your sister is feeling down because

    "Miss Helena, we'll be at the Edison family's main house in a moment," Michael told her. He glanced into the rear-view mirror to make sure the woman in the passenger seat heard him.Since he was asked to stay close to Helena, Michael has followed her wherever she's gone, including now. He's attending the banquet held at the Edison family's main house. To be more precise, it's the banquet to welcome Helena back to the main house."I know," Helena replied with a small smile. "Everything went smoothly with the banquet preparations, right?""I haven't heard of any issues so far, Miss Helena."Helena's smile got even bigger. "Thanks, Michael. You've been a huge help to me. And can you not call me Miss Helena? It feels a bit awkward. I gave you a heads-up, didn't I? Or should I speak with Mr. Tommy Andreas?"Michael let out a short laugh. "You win. Well, umm... Helena?""It's always the woman who wins an argument with a man, isn't it?"Once again, Michael's laughter was the dominant sound.

    Tiara walked into her future husband's room with a confident stride. Two boutique workers were carrying several suits that would be worn for their upcoming wedding, following behind Tiara. Tiara's growing baby bump was on full display. After all, there was no way she could hide this pregnancy, right?"Can I come in, Darling?" Tiara asked in a pleasant tone. She kept knocking on Arslan's door, but she wasn't planning on waiting for him to answer. When she walked in, Arslan was, as usual, working on some files. But the man's face still looked the same as when he returned last night: agitated and stressed."You're here," Arslan said, trying to smile, but it was difficult because he was under a lot of pressure. He had to wrap things up soon before it was too late. While Arslan's proposal to Deny Jacob was reasonable, there was still the question of whether there was enough time to make the necessary fixes."Have a seat." One thing Arslan needed to focus on right now was his wedding. We ca

    Helena checked her watch. She still had a little time before her appointment. She was curious about what Tiara wanted to talk to her about. Even though she had a pretty good idea of what the meeting was going to be about, Helena still wanted to go ahead with it. She wasn't going to back down or let someone who had treated her unfairly get the better of her.Even so, she felt a bit lazy, considering how much she was enjoying the place."Helena," someone called, making her turn her head slightly. She was flabbergasted by what the caller had just said.Helena was spending the rest of the day relaxing in her father's mansion in the right wing. It's a cool, well-organized space with lots of plants that are well looked after. Helena was happy to spend time there, leaving Thomas to discuss some important matters while Wilna had said goodbye after lunch. She said she had something to take care of and would let Helena know as soon as she could."Who is he?" Helena asked, looking curious. "Is .

    "How's it going?" Deny Jacob asked, with a look that still showed emotion. What happened with Intel and what that could mean for the company because of what happened yesterday could have a big impact."We should have the repair results for you tomorrow, Mr. Deny." Arslan tried to stay calm. "I've asked the production manager to bring the repair samples over right away and take another look so we can avoid any problems.""What about the Cyber product? Everything's fine, right?""Yes," Arslan replied right away. "The shipment to the Cyber warehouse is on track to arrive today as scheduled. The samples they're testing came through just fine. I'm meeting with Mr. Baron tomorrow. We'll be discussing the results of products with Intel technology that are bound to catch a lot of people's attention." He gave a little smile that seemed to say he was happy with the results of this work."Good. Keep up the good work. I think you should also visit Nakia. Try to show you're sorry for what you did w

    "Should we really go to the office?" Michael asked again. He had to make sure his client was happy with the plan. Since her meeting with Tiara Jacob, Helena's been a bit more down than usual, even though she's not sure what was discussed."Yes, I've got something to talk over with Wilna." Helena just gave the matter a quick look and then went back to watching the road. The route was nice and free flowing, with minimal traffic, so the journey was smooth and fast."Okay." That was all Michael could say on the matter.While Helena still chose to stay quiet. There was nothing to worry about from the meeting, but it was just that... Helena felt a bit tired. Maybe it was because Tiara's energy was too negative, which made Helena feel drained. On top of that, she was serving Tiara's words, which sometimes went a bit far.Even so, Helena knew why Tiara wanted to meet with her. On top of that, Tiara wanted to talk about her relationship with Arslan, which Helena shouldn't get involved in. Give

    Nakia was surprised when a rather eccentric-looking man came into his office. He was wearing a black hoodie, slightly shabby jeans, and clearly visible panda eyes with a messy orange hair tie."Excuse me, can I see your ID?" a security guard stopped the eccentric man in his tracks. Even so, the man gave a little smile. He pulled out his wallet and ID."I'd like to see Helena. Could you please give her a call right away?"The security guard looked at the man with even more suspicion. He looked the man over, checking his ID and appearance. He felt like this guy was out of place. He was a very different type of person. The man's appearance on the card in his hand was very neat. He looked fit and healthy, but in front of him, he looked like someone who hadn't taken care of himself in a week."Excuse me, do you have an appointment scheduled?""Let's just say, Ron Weasley came by for a visit."The clerk gave a little smirk. "You're not one of the Harry Potter actors, are you?"The man with

    That morning, sunlight broke through the gap in Olin's curtains. The girl squirmed quietly on the bed, still half sleepy. But her mind immediately recalled last night's conversation with her father.Her father, Michael Andreas, spoke in a soft yet firm tone. "Olin, your Mommy only wants what's best for you. Sometimes her ways may seem harsh, but that's because she cares. You also have to learn to listen more, not just react."Those words rang in her mind, making her feelings of guilt even stronger. Olin let out a long sigh, then got up from the bed. She looked at her reflection in the mirror.“Alright, today I have to fix it,” she muttered as she put on her school uniform.After tidying up, she left her room and went straight to the kitchen. There, her mother Helena was busy preparing breakfast. The woman's face looked calm, albeit a little tired.Olin paused for a moment at the doorway, feeling nervous. But she gathered her courage, walked slowly, and hugged her mother from behind.“

    “I'm home,” Olin said as he confirmed the people around her. Apart from the fact that he was a little late, Olin didn't want to face her mother directly yet. Somehow she felt that, whatever happened at school, her mother already knew about it.He had to be prepared in case she lectured him.“Looks like Mommy's not home yet,” she said with a sigh of relief. She had checked some of the rooms where her mother often stayed, especially the reading room. And she didn't find her mother there. This meant... for the time being Olin was safe.Unfortunately...“What are you looking for?”Her mother came out from the other room, looking at her only daughter in surprise.“Nothing.” Olin grinned widely. “Good afternoon, my dear mother.” She immediately rushed to hug her mother. But Helena just clucked and yelled at her. “It hurts, Mom! Ugh! What did I do wrong?”“Wait for me over there,” Helena pointed to the lounge not far from their current position.“Mom,” Olin said in a pleading voice. She knew

    “Gosh, why is that guy so annoying? Why not just tell me his name? What's so hard?” grumbled Olin as he headed to his classroom. He had to pull himself together quickly. there were still at least a few class hours before recess rang.Olin entered the classroom with a leisurely pace, his hands still busy adjusting the strap of his bag that was a little loose. His gaze swept the entire room, making sure the atmosphere was back to normal. There were no more teachers interrogating him or suspicious stares like in the teacher's lounge earlier.“What a long time!” Jihan immediately approached Olin with a cheerful smile. “Where have you been? The second lesson bell is about to ring, you know!”Olin smiled slightly. “To the health room. My hand needs more attention.”Jihan looked at Olin's hand, which had been neatly wrapped with a fresh bandage. “Are you okay?”“As you can see, I'm still alive,” Olin said casually as he sat on his stool. He took out a notebook from his bag and looked at Jiha

    After leaving the teacher's room, Olin let out a long sigh. He knew that the problem was not completely solved. But for now, he felt quite relieved. There was still some time before the first lesson ended, and his hand was starting to feel a little sore from the bandage that had started to come loose.“I forgot to change it this morning,” Olin muttered as he looked down at his hand. With a leisurely pace, he decided to head towards the medical room.The school hallway was quite quiet, with only the occasional sound of teachers teaching from the classroom. But when Olin passed the student council room, his steps stopped. The door of the room was open, and the voices of several people having a discussion could be heard clearly.“This year's spring festival needs to be more festive than last year's,” a woman's stern voice echoed from inside the room.“We need more sponsors,” said a man. “The funds available now are only enough for basic decorations. If we want a bigger stage, it's imposs

    “I will meet that young man later. I need to get my business done this time,” Olin said with a low grumble. There was no other choice but to step towards the teacher's office. He glanced at the smartwatch in his hand. Not a single message had come in yet, indicating that the person he relied on could solve all his problems today.Olin stepped into the teacher's room with a calm face, barely even showing the slightest worry. In his heart, he had already guessed what would happen. The three girls must have reached the teacher's room first and reported what happened. And this time, they didn't just play with words like before, but brought their parents to urge the school.“I wonder what they said as a form of complaint, huh?” asked Olin with a giggle. He couldn't imagine how the three of them would look when they complained. Either to their parents or to their teacher this morning.At the door, Olin paused, took a deep breath, and smiled a little. “Relax, Olin. It's just a small problem.

    “What on earth are you doing, Olin?” asked Helena with a half frustrated sigh. She massaged her temples in disbelief at what Olin had done. When her only child came home, his uniform was dirty. His hands had plaster on them in several places. Not to mention his hair was sticking up in a mess.“Nothing,” Olin replied with a wide grin. “Let's just say I fell down.”“How can that be?” snapped Helena, who was trying her best to be patient with the 15-year-old girl. Olin was a gentle child who disliked excessive activity outside. Let alone playing in the mud, even getting her uniform a little dirty, Olin didn't like it. But... I don't know what made the girl change.Was the puberty of today's teenagers very different from what Helena had experienced? The woman really couldn't understand why times were moving so fast. She could not keep up except to try to understand and assist Olin as best she could.“Mommy doesn't need to be angry.” Olin chuckled. “If Grandma Vera says, Mommy will get pre

    Olin let out a rough sigh. His knuckles hurt and looked red. There were scratches on his palms but he did not care. His sharp eyes gazed at his three opponents who were down and moaning in pain.“Damn, I should have been more gentle,” he grumbled. She slightly twisted her wrist which was in a bit of pain. What was making her feel this much pain? Oh... the blow he gave the red-haired girl felt too tight.Today should have gone on as usual. There was no need to dirty his hands and make a slight injury. What would she give as an excuse to her mother and father later? Not to mention his aunt who was very fussy but eager to support him-if she knew what was happening, Olin was one hundred percent sure that tomorrow... would be a very horrendous day at school.“I wish you hadn't messed with me,” muttered Olin as he took one more look at the faces he had battered. “You're wasting my time.” He sat down on one of the piles of unused items around the back of the warehouse.Olin reached under her

    The faint morning sun shone through the gap in the bars, illuminating the small room where Tiara Jacob sat. Her face looked calm, but her eyes held a lot of burden. Today, she was going to meet Luna, the aunt she had come to rely on since her life changed completely. If not for Luna Jacob's compassion, who knows what would have happened to Andy. Just thinking about it made Tiara uneasy. She no longer wants anything to do with her ex-husband; Arslan Tan. After what he did and how selfish Arslan was towards Tiara and Andy.They divorced when Andy was one year old. Tiara took care of everything from prison, although initially Arslan didn't accept it but Tiara didn't care. He was patient enough and gave a lot of leeway to their relationship.Tiara didn't even bother to contact Tan's family to ask for help looking after Andy. The latest news Tiara heard was that they were heavily in debt and struggling to support themselves. So how could they support Andy properly?And Tiara's biggest cons

    “How did you meet the Edison family at Andy's school? Don't they have references to schools that are much better than Bright Star Academy?” Luna massaged her temples tiredly.Andy had been in his room for some time. Luna felt guilty for being late picking up the boy. But what the heck, she had to take care of the cake shop she managed.“But they don't recognize me,” Luna muttered immediately. “That's much better for us.”“Grandma,” called Andy carrying his school bag. “Help me with my homework.”“Come here.” Luna patted the seat at her side. “I'll come with you to do your homework.”That evening, Luna sat in the living room watching Andy busy with his homework. The boy, though only seven years old, looked so serious. Luna couldn't stop being grateful for Andy's good growth, though there were many worries she kept in her heart. One of them was Andy's encounter with a little girl at the school event this afternoon.Luna knew who the Edison family was. Their name had caused a stir with t
