Caraline could not contain her sadness any longer. She burst into tears again, streaming down her cheeks. She hugged the diary tightly as if she was holding Carla. All the images of her life with her sister came flooding back. Sadness, regret, and longing took turns to overwhelm her emotions.Caraline fell off the sofa still hugging Carla's diary. Her body shook violently until the sound of crying finally surfaced. Grace and the three maids who heard it immediately entered the room with panicked faces."Oh my, Miss Caraline." Grace quickly embraced Caraline, trying to get her back onto the sofa. However, she found it difficult as Caraline's body fell back to the floor.The room was filled with crying for a while. Caraline didn't want this marriage to happen. Neither did she want to be the companion of a disgusting monster like Diego, all she wanted was Deric, the man she loved and her sister loved."What happened?" Diego appeared with a fierce face. He hit the door of the room hard. "
The whole room was in an uproar with the news. All eyes were immediately on Diego. Television and internet channels instantly highlighted the shock that had befallen Diego and Caraline. Some of the guests were whispering with probing looks."This must be a mistake, sir," Diego said, still forcing a smile, "I'm not involved in any crime. I can prove that I am innocent of all charges."Diego clenched his fists tightly. The man could not contain his shock. He had bribed the mouths of police officers and media owners to cover up his crimes. However, what happened was beyond his control. The only thing he could think of at the moment was that there was a big figure behind this event.Henry Hulbert suddenly stood up and walked out of the room. His action immediately caught the attention of the media and the people in the room."Mr. Henry Hulbert, I'm sure this was just a mistake," Diego said as he stepped down from the venue. "I could not have done such a shameful act."Henry Hulbert ignore
The smoke slowly dissipated as the large fans from the four corners of the room turned on. The room returned to its original state. Many of the guests were already unconscious on the floor, including Jeremy, Jonathan, and James. The same happened to some of the bodyguards, police, and media outside the room."Stay away from my cousin, Diego!" Catherine suddenly hit Diego on the back with a wooden stick. "You've crossed your limit.""Catherine, what are you doing?" asked Wilson. When he saw the white smoke coming out, he quickly put on a mask, gave one to Catherine, and also asked his cousin to hold her breath.Diego almost fell over if he didn't hold on to the chair. He pulled a small pistol from his sock and fired it at Catherine. "Die, damn woman!"Catherine immediately fell when her shoulder was shot. Blood quickly flowed and soaked her shirt. His gaze fell on Caraline for a moment and soon she was unconscious."Catherine!" screeched Wilson with bulging eyes. The man quickly crouc
Caraline felt her body being forcefully pulled back, where her mouth was also firmly sealed. She tried to scream but could do nothing to stop the enemy's actions."Shut up, you lowly woman," Diego whispered angrily as he pulled Caraline toward the helicopter. He chuckled as his hand was bitten off by her. "Take me away from this place."Caraline continued to struggle. She didn't want to go with Diego, let alone become the wife of that disgusting monster. For that reason, she had to get away as soon as possible."You'll only make yourself more miserable, you lowly woman!" Diego pulled Caraline with all his might. One of his men quickly helped him carry Caraline into the helicopter."Let's get this helicopter up and running!" Diego ordered.The helicopter began to leave the rooftop. Caraline was still struggling to break free. Tears fell down her cheeks again. Shortly after, the thick smoke began to dissipate, revealing several of Diego's men lying helplessly on the ground. Meanwhile, S
"Diego has taken Miss Caraline to the helicopter," a bodyguard said as he approached Thomas.Three helicopters quickly landed on the rooftop."Miss Caraline shouted that Diego ordered his men to blow up the building.""Calm down," Thomas replied, "I've already ordered Lucy to take care of that."Lucy arrived at the rooftop with five bodyguards, approaching Thomas. "I've taken care of the bombs installed throughout the building, sir. I can confirm that the building is safe now.""What about the guests and others?" asked Thomas."I've ordered all the guards to take them to the nearest hospital," Lucy explained."Alright, we need to prepare the troops to rescue Miss Caraline. Lucy, gather information on Diego and Miss Caraline's whereabouts right now. We need to act before it's too late," Thomas ordered."Wait a minute," Stevan said, "what does this mean, Thomas? How can Lucy call you 'Mister' and follow your orders? Are all these foreign bodyguards under your command? Who are you?"Stev
"Damn it! Who exactly is the person behind all this? Why are those damn cops turning on me?" Diego threw the bottle against the wall, sending its contents scattering across the floor. His face turned red as his jaw tightened. His eyes glared around the room. The man pulled his hair back and then screamed at the top of his lungs. Diego threw the items on the table and then kicked the objects near his feet. The man felt frustrated when he remembered what had happened that morning. His name and company had been destroyed in an instant in the public eye after that incident. He almost lost everything. Diego moved to the balcony as he regained control. He looked out at the blue sea and the orange sky. The greenery of the forest to the right and left of the building made him feel a little calm. It had been almost several hours since he had been in this place. In exactly one hour, he had to take Caraline out of the country. Diego frowned as the wound on his left shoulder returned. He had a
"The enemy suddenly attacked from below. All our guards were easily taken out. Right now the enemy is heading our way," said a subordinate."How the hell did this happen, damn it?" Diego asked angrily. His grip on Caraline's hand loosened. "Did they implant a GPS in this fucking woman?"There was an explosion from below. The sun had fully set on the western horizon. The sky was covered in dark light and soon the entire building was doused in lamplight."It looks like they're moving from the direction of the forest," Diego's subordinate continued.Diego chuckled, staring at the five helicopters moving closer to the building. He was surrounded and had no chance of escape. "We need to get out of here. Prepare... ah!"Caraline kicked Diego in the groin, then ran towards the side of the building. She saw the guards on the ground and grass. She also saw Stevan and Anthony among the enemies Diego had just mentioned. "They came to save me. But how could they possibly know where I am right now
The news of Caraline's rescue instantly made headlines that attracted the attention of almost the entire community. She was immediately taken to hospital for treatment. The same thing happened to Diego. He was admitted to one of the rooms under heavy police guard. Helen, Grace, and the maids cried tears of joy in front of Caraline's room. They hugged each other when the doctor said she was only in severe shock and exhausted.Unexpectedly, Thomas, Lucy, and the mysterious bodyguards disappeared as soon as they arrived at Heaventown. They could not be contacted even though Stevan had mobilized his subordinates. In one of the hospital rooms, Jeremy, Jonathan, and James were getting ready to leave. The three of them were going back to Springtown. When they were ready, the three men left the room. The hospital was busy with nurses, doctors, and visitors coming and going."I didn't know it was going to turn out like this," Jonathan said as the trio walked down the corridor, "Diego's a ro
