"Hello...." Luliyah answered as she picked up the call.'Luliyah, can we meet? There are things that I want to talk about.' Her father said.Her father didn't even bother to ask how she was after they haven't met and chatted for a long time."What is wrong?" Luliyah asked. She felt strange that her father suddenly wanted to meet her. From the way the man spoke, Luliyah knew that her father was not looking for her because he was longing to meet her."Father will be waiting for you at the cafe. I'll send the location to you." Martins said before he hung up. The man didn't even give Luliyah the chance to answer him. Luliyah didn't have the time to respond to her father whether she was willing to meet him or not.After the call was cut off, Luliyah let out a disappointed sigh. She shouldn't be this disappointed. She should have known that her father wasn't looking for her because he missed her.It looks like Luliyah's heart was still hopeful.She immediately put her feelings aside and cal
Agi stood at the entrance of the car while waiting for Luliyah to get into the car. When Luliyah got outside, the middle-aged man opened the car door for her."Madame, I was ordered by Sir to escort you." Agi said."Thank you. Just call me Luliyah." Luliyah replied as she entered the car and said goodbye to Mrs Binta. Agi heard what Luliyah was saying, but he was not used to being informal with his employers, so he just smiled and nodded his head.Before seeing her father, Luliyah decided to visit her mother in the hospital first. She wanted to see the condition of her mother and she also wanted to be sure if her mother's hospital bills had really been paid by Kelvin....She walked towards the ICU, a room she was very familiar with. She saw her mother still lying in coma. Luliyah could only see her from behind the transparent glass window. Her eyes turned red as she looked at her mother's pale face."Mom, you have to get up, okay? Don't leave me alone." She muttered softly, hoping th
"Why did you ask to meet me suddenly?" Luliyah asked with seriousness. She wanted her father to stop beating around the bush and go straight to why he wanted to see her."Father needs your help. I heard that you are close to Kelvin Williams." The man said.Luliyah was so furious. The reason why her father wanted to meet her was because of Kelvin.The man didn't even ask how she was, or how her mother was doing. He only came after hearing the news that Luliyah had a relationship with Kelvin."Dad's company is in bad shape. Dad needs help. Can you ask Kelvin to cooperate with dad's company?" He begged. Martins knew that Luliyah was an innocent girl and his daughter loved him so much. If he met her face to face, she will definitely be willing to help him. Unfortunately for him, Luliyah was not stupid."I can't help, Father." Luliyah said firmly.Martins was stunned when he heard Luliyah's answer. He did not think Luliyah would refuse his request. He thought with just a little pitiful loo
"Natali set me up! She spiked my drink and sent me to Kelvin's room. Why should I be blamed for the thing I didn't do?" Luliyah shouted, trying to defend herself from her father's accusation.The voices of Martins and Luliyah grew louder and attracted the attention of the visitors in the cafe, including Natali who followed her father on purpose.From her seat, Natali could hear Luliyah chanting her name. She knew Luliyah was not an idiot and she must have known that it was her who planned it all. Luliyah must have known that Natali was the one who set her up.But she didn't care. After all, Luliyah couldn't do anything. What could that woman do? Just at the moment, everyone looked at Luliyah in disgust. They all thought of Luliyah as a cheap woman who flirted with someone else's fiance.The look on the faces of the visitors seated in the cafe made Natali happy. She could hear them whispering and insulting Luliyah."Looks like I know the woman sitting there" One of the diners beside Na
The coffee did not only soak Luliyah's body, her long hair was also wet. She was so surprised that Natali suddenly poured the coffee on her. Her body became stiff and hot.Shock, anger and resentment mixed in her heart, 'What is my fault that I am treated this way?'She could hear the people around her whispering. They insulted her and mocked her for being a slut and seducer.A cheap woman, a seductive woman, a woman who snatched someone's fiance...The words coming out of their mouths made Luliyah very sad and embarrassed. They considered Luliyah as a bad woman because of the news that was circulating.She didn't even get a chance to defend herself.Luliyah lowered her head, seeing the condition of her outfit. The clothes that Mrs Binta chose for her. The dress made her feel cheerful when she left the house. The beautiful dress was now dirty, covered with coffee stains.She looked up at her father's face. Mr Martins just stared at her coldly. Her father didn't do anything. He didn't
Luliyah could feel her cheek throb due to her father's hard slap. Her eyes turned red from trying to hold back tears. She couldn't cry, she can't afford to look weak in front of this people.Seeing all the events in front of him, Agi could not stay still. He could not bear to see Luliyah being humiliated and even slapped in public, while he was standing still.When Agi was about to approach Luliyah to help her, the cafe door suddenly opened.Kelvin stepped in, followed by Harris and a few bodyguards behind him. They all wore formal attire, making everyone around feel intimidated by their arrival.Agi was very happy to see his master come. It felt like he could exhale a sigh of relief after seeing his master's arrival. Everything would be fine as long as his master was around.Kelvin could see all the emotions mixed up on Luliyah's face. Anger, sadness, heartache... "Luliyah." His deep voice sounded, waking Luliyah from her sadness.When that voice was heard, everyone in the room turne
"Kelvin, you simply misunderstood." Martins said in a haste trying to calm Kelvin's anger. He must not loose a prospective son-in-law like Kelvin, so he must try his best not to get Kelvin angry. Mr Martins needed Kelvin to make his company move forward. With's Kelvin's support and influence, he would be even richer. He would also become one of the most influential people in the city again. "Misunderstand?" Kelvin's voice was so low that it almost sounded like a growl. Mr Martins immediately closed his mouth tightly, afraid that Kelvin would direct his anger at him if he spoke further. Meanwhile, Natali could only tremble beside her father. Kelvin already knew all her plans. He also knew that she set his wife up. The man was not blind! The man had seen it all. Natali's tears before might have been crocodile tears, but now she really wanted to cry. What should she do? "I am not doing anything! Not me..." Natali said. Tears rolled down her face. This time she cried out of fear. "
"Where's the coffee I ordered?" Kelvin asked one of the servants nearby. The waiter was startled and quickly rushed to get the coffee for Kelvin.It didn't take long until the waiter returned with a hot cup of coffee. He placed it in front of Kelvin and said in a trembling voice, "Here's your coffee, sir." Because the waiter was so afraid of Kelvin, he didn't wait for a response from Kelvin and immediately ran back to his other colleagues.Fear radiated in Natali's eyes seeing the coffee glass placed in front of Kelvin. She was afraid that the man would do the same thing she did to Luliyah. The coffee she pored on Luliyah was cold because the room was air conditioned.Meanwhile, the coffee served in front of Kelvin was still hot and steaming. Any skin could burn if that coffee was splashed on it.Natali wasn't only the one who thought like that. Martins also thought of the same thing. He immediately pulled Natali's hand, admonishing her to apologize to Kelvin and Luliyah. Maybe if sh
