It's been more than two weeks since Seno disappeared without a trace. Lara became increasingly numb. Her daily life with Melati became routine. And her pregnancy was progressing."Ouch...." Lara hissed as she climbed the stairs to retrieve her belongings on the second floor. But her feet were already sore. Swollen. Currently, Lara's pregnancy was at 28 weeks."Ma'am, are you okay?" Melati supported Lara's weak body. The woman was leaning on the iron railing."Oh, yes. I just feel pain in my feet area. I was going to get the hair dryer in Seno's room, Mela. Can you get it for me?" Lara requested. This time, she tried to go back downstairs."Are you planning to go out?" Melati asked, nodding. Before going to the second floor, she would demand Lara to rest on the living room sofa to be safe."I want to see the clothes I ordered while buying some items. My school reunion is coming soon.""Oh, right. Let me get it for you, Ma'am," Melati offered.Lara seemed to think for a moment. But she
"Olivia?" Lara's eyes widened as she found her husband's mistress standing before her."Yes! It's me! Now, tell me, where is Seno?!" Olivia snapped with irritation. Lara was increasingly baffled."Haven't you gone too far? After having no shame, what's this? Have you lost your mind too? How dare you search for someone else's husband in the legitimate wife's house, huh?" Lara was not having it. She pushed Olivia to leave her house immediately.Melati trembled. She was afraid of the argument that was unfolding. However, Melati tried to stand strong and positioned herself behind Lara to be on guard. Melati didn't want Lara to suddenly be pushed back and fall, risking serious injury for both her and the baby."You!" Olivia stopped mid-sentence. She just realized that intimidating Lara wasn't easy. Her credit card payment was overdue, and Seno hadn't settled his debts.Olivia didn't know what to do. She also didn't have that much money to pay. Olivia's salary was only around 10 million rup
“Seno?” Lara stuttered. Behind Seno, she saw Olivia just getting into a taxi. Had the woman been released by her husband?"Prepare a bath. I'm very tired," he said abruptly. Lara immediately signaled to Melati. The assistant promptly prepared the bath as Seno requested."Where have you been, Seno?""Treatment.""Is that all you have to say?" Lara raised her voice. She felt very annoyed at Seno's attitude, as if he were dismissing all her concerns."Aren't you supposed to be happy? Your husband is fine. Stop asking so many questions. I'm very tired!" Seno went upstairs to his room without further ado."What?" Lara was speechless.Melati simply looked down, pretending not to notice anything. She maintained her professionalism to avoid being influenced by the couple's argument. "The bath is ready, Sir," Melati said, opening the bathroom door."Good. Please also bring a towel.""Okay, Sir.""Seno!" Lara chased after Seno, demanding an explanation. But Seno ignored Lara and looked at her r
Olivia immediately contacted Seno using her ghost phone. Seno forbade her from contacting him privately to deceive Lara. Olivia didn't run out of ways. The woman quickly called Seno and demanded her promise."What did you say?!" Olivia was startled. Seno had truly changed!"This is the last time I'll take your calls, Olivia! After this, there will be no more romantic relationship between you and me! Do you understand?!" Seno severed ties with his mistress."W-what?!" Olivia yelled angrily. "You can't end the relationship unilaterally like this, Seno!" she shouted."Why not?" Seno retorted. He seemed ready to face all the consequences of his actions."I—I will expose our affair!" Olivia threatened without thinking maturely."Oh yeah? Go ahead if you want to dig your own grave. Do you think the media will listen to the ramblings of a crazy woman?" Seno seemed fearless. Olivia was stunned. She was at a loss."You—!""That's enough! I've already sent US$ 50,000. That's the last fund for y
Seno, whether he liked it or not, had to grant Olivia's request. That crazy woman really caused a commotion beyond his expectations."Where are you?" Seno contacted Olivia when he arrived at the hotel lobby. The parking lot was quite crowded, and Seno had to park on the third floor because all the other lines were full."I'm in the lobby, come quickly!" Olivia replied coyly. Her eyes had been searching for Seno's figure since earlier, but he had yet to show up. It turned out Seno was in the parking lot. Olivia didn't expect him to come with his own car like that."I'm on my way!" Seno said hastily. He needed to meet Olivia and put an end to everything. Seno didn't want to be involved in her tricks, especially if Lara was involved.***"It's so crowded," Lara murmured as she entered the hotel lobby. Her reunion event was in a special meeting room on the 10th floor. Lara had to walk through the hallway to get to the elevator at the far end of the room."Oh, it turns out you're here too,
"Hi, everyone!" Olivia intentionally shouted, trying to catch the attention of the party guests."Uh? Olivia?""Yeah, that's Olivia, class of 2008!""Wow... she's really glowing!""Who's that next to her?"Whispers immediately filled the hall. Olivia got the attention she was hoping for. "Hey!" Olivia waved again to her friends in the corner of the room. The gossip group! The same group that had tarnished Lara's reputation."Aww... is that her boyfriend?" Sherly asked, intrigued, looking at Seno."Ah... Haha... you know it!" Olivia didn't deny it. Meanwhile, Seno just swallowed hard. He had to cooperate with Olivia to keep her from spreading his secret."I feel like I've seen him somewhere before," Sherly tried to recall, but Olivia quickly explained the origin of her secret lover. "He's Seno Adhijaya, don't you know him?""Oh! Wow! Yeah, I've seen him in a magazine!""Right! That's Mr. Seno, isn't it? Nice to meet you!""Oh, yes, nice to meet you," Seno quickly accepted handshakes fr
Mahya's body trembled as she saw Seno and Olivia approaching. It wasn't a trembling of euphoria or joy at meeting these two familiar figures, but... Mahya's body trembled with disgust and an inability to accept the fact that Seno was truly flaunting his debauchery in front of the masses."Y-you," Seno stuttered as he saw Mahya, who was so ingrained in his memory."Ah! Let me introduce, this is Mahya, one of our best reporters in the office," James began to approach Mahya. His instinct as a man seemed to dominate his reptilian brain, as Seno looked at Mahya with a gaze that James also understood the meaning of."Ah, Mahya, yes..." Seno pretended not to know her well, although James also knew that they had been involved in an accident some time ago. The accident had caused James to lose $1000 in an instant, so he was truly angry at Mahya.As James thought about it, he cursed himself more. How could his rational mind as a boss change in an instant as a love-thirsty man? James truly didn'
"What happened? Where's Lara? Is she going into labor?" Seno bombarded his driver with various questions until finally, it was only the driver's rough breath that served as the main answer."P-please, Sir," he managed to say."Tell me! Where's Lara?!""Madam is in the ICU. We need to wait a little longer, Sir," the driver said with a bewildered look. He could indeed be blamed. As a subordinate, one of his duties was to calm his employer's emotions."Now, explain! How did all this start?" Seno exploded. His breath was ragged. He truly felt blindsided. How could he overlook Lara's condition and instead accompany Olivia? Seno was not thinking straight!"Madam started feeling pain after the reunion, Sir. According to the doctor who examined her earlier, there were signs of severe shock affecting her...""W-what?!"Seno clenched his mouth shut. For a moment, he tried to guess what could have caused his wife to go into such shock."A-and then?""Well, Madam's stomach was hurting, so I immed
