*****

The incident that caused Suzie and Jonathan to panic happened two hours ago.

When Javier thought that the woman had indeed left and his day would return to its peaceful yet dull life, a group of people suddenly interrupted the still silence.

And they came with not-so-good intentions.

Javier heard a ruckus downstairs.

It seemed like they were making a mess on the first floor.

Clang. Crash.

Javier becomes alert.

What these people came here for?

Then the door slammed open.

Several voices were heard.

"She is not here! Where did she go?!"

"Did she run away?!"

Javier recognized this annoying voice. It was from the maid who was once assigned to him. The one who stole many things here and bullied him. She was also the one who visited his wife yesterday and made her leave.

Javier was particularly angry at her.

She was accompanied by two people. The other was the timid maid who always after his body and the other was the lazy man who was supposed to be taking care of the garden but never

    The heart monitor's loud rhythmic beats and rustling sounds that were commonly heard in the silent room were now accompanied by slow music and the beautiful voice of the singer.[Here, where the sky's fallingI'm covered in blueI'm running and I'm crawlingFighting for you~]*A smile appeared on Suzie's face."It is working," Suzie said after fiddling on the small radio. She looked at the sleeping man on the bed. "Now we have a radio. You won't be bored anymore. Is this channel fine for you, husband?"Because of what the doctor said the other day, Suzie learned that her comatose husband was actually conscious. Although he looked almost dead, he was still inside there.The doctor said that a comatose patient might hear what was in his surrounding. Their hearing was what first recovered before the other senses.After learning that, Suzie got the idea to purchase a radio and let the man hear some music. She don't know if he could listen to the surroundings or not, but a little music in

    ***Javier originally thought that he might be thinking too much. Perhaps the woman had a lot on her mind that morning so she did not chatter with him like usual. It might be related to why she was missing last night.However, the woman did not come to visit his room after that. She did not spend the night or greeted him a 'goodnight'. The next day, she greeted him in the morning and checked his body. After doing the morning routine, she lightly massaged him and then left. She was the same as yesterday.She had been silent in those times too.After three nights, Javier realized that the woman must have been sleeping in the spare room.The time she came into the room was becoming less. She only came once in a while to water the plants. Aside from humming the song, she did not talk to him at all.Javier: "...."Javier felt annoyed.What kind of game this woman was playing?Judging by her upbeat humming, she did not look sad or bothered at all. The only thing that changed was she did no

    The young maid's information was something Suzie already knew. She could summarize all this from Jonathan's report. But hearing it from the maid's mouth was still different. She could gain more information from them that Jonathan doesn't know. As expected, the negotiation would only work if Reyna would accept the terms. "Then did you hear from your Aunt that Madame is..." Suzie elongated her words waiting for the new maid to finish her own sentence. She was sure that there were some secrets of Reyna that only the maids who had been working here for a long time should know. Something that Jonathan's report doesn't cover. The young maid said that the Masters acted independently. Then there must be something going on. Like a dirty secret. As expected the new maid paled. "...You knew that too?" Suzie: "...." She doesn't know. She was just guessing. A wealthy household like this would surely have some secrets that outsider doesn't know. Suzie nodded and pretended that she knows.

    Suzie heard a loud crash as soon as she arrived on the veranda. The atmosphere in the air was tense as Reyna's pretty face was distorted. "Are they not putting me in their eyes? Even Kingsley is walking all over me. This is Colton's fault. He acts so arrogantly. He is not giving me face now that he has his damn eldest son's inheritance!" Reyna's face was red with anger. She reached out her hand. "Hand me my phone." The maid ran to Reyna's room. Suzie immediately hid behind the large vase. Fortunately, the maid returned in panic and did not take notice of Suzie.Suzie's lips twitched as she watched the on-guard expression of the maid. They were obviously afraid that Reyna would vent her anger on them. Suzie was in delimma. Reyna's mood was totally bad. Did she come at the wrong time? She was thinking of whether to return with nothing or continue on when Reyna's voice sounded again. "Come here. My husband and son are not here." Reyna said on the phone with a commanding tone. Suz

    Reyna harrumphed, "I am not generous to give you favors." She then called the maids behind her. "Escort her out." Before the maids could move, Suzie played her recording on the phone. Reyna's voice sounded. From the moment she started conversing with the man on the phone, to the point Reyna and the other person flirted, to the end of the call, everything was recorded. Reyna looked at the phone in shock. She wanted to get the phone from Suzie but the latter was more nimble than her. Suzie was able to avoid her. "Mother-in-law, are you trying to steal your daughter-in-law's old phone? This phone is cheap and not updated with the current trends. But it can send the recording to many emails and others accounts by default. As you see mother, your daughter-in-law loves saving things and sending them to others. Who knows if your daughter-in-law who had worked many jobs might have known some reporters who love family scandals?" Reyna looked at Suzie, horrified. "You...What are you trying

    A/n: I just noticed that I keep using the wrong name. It should be Reyna Albretch not Regina Albretch. *** Reyna was wavering. Ever since she got married, she had to closely watch her reputation and not let anyone learn of her flaws. So as the Madame of the Albrecht family, she had to carefully abide by the rules and took the title of a good wife. A good wife stays at home, properly taking care of their house and properties while waiting for their husband to come home. This was a ridiculous notion that society put to her which made Reyna difficult to swallow. She was a pampered lady of the Mckenzie family. How could she be satisfied being a small fish inside a big aquarium? What she wanted was to be in the wide ocean. Having wealth, freedom, and the envy of the world. However, although she was allowed to have some fun outside, it was limited to a day. She could only spend the night outside with her husband, Colton. Playing queen in the mountain villa was nice, however, she

    Suzie smiled and kissed the twin's head. "Always remember that you two not only have us but you have each other. Keep looking out for each other like this as you two grow up, okay? Then Mommy will give you a lot of rewards." Hearing rewards, the two children's moods turned happy. "What rewards? Are we going to the ocean and dive with sharks?" "Are we going to fly in the air and meet Superman?" Suzie laughed. She really wished her children would never lose their innocence and their imagination towards the world. They could grow up strong and disciplined, but they should never lose their innocence toward life and their hope for the future. She would make sure of it. "Let me think about it." The two children talked about the rewards that were about to come while they held Suzie's hand. When Javier met them at the company's lobby, he could not help but smile at the scenery. The scenery of his wife and his two children laughing and smiling warmed up his heart. Life was full of ups a

    "Everyone, I appreciate your presence here. The reason behind gathering you all and convening this meeting on such short notice is to announce that my wife will be visiting." Tension hung in the air as Javier initiated the meeting. However, the revelation that followed left everyone in a state of surprise. Maintaining his composed demeanor, Javier continued, "Many of you had the opportunity to meet her at last year's opening ceremony. She expresses her regret that she couldn't personally greet each and every one of you on that occasion. My wife is a busy mother, her schedule is quite demanding. I kindly ask for your understanding in this regard." "Madame does not need to apologize." "Madame's kindness is truly remarkable. It's touching that she considers employees like us. We're genuinely grateful for her thoughtfulness." "There is no need to bother about us...." Those with a talent for flattery seized the opportunity to win favor. And their strategy proved effective.

Though young, their boss was ruthless when it came to business and never gave a second chance to those who harmed the company.He was generous to those who worked hard and remained loyal, but ruthless to his enemies.

It then ascended to a top-three rank in the whole of Asia.To those employees who remained with the company even during the most difficult times, their rise to these positions was a testament to their loyalty.

    In the quiet embrace of dawn's gentle touch, the sea awoke from its slumber, its vast expanse stretching out as far as the eye could fathom. The horizon, adorned with hues of soft amethyst and pale rose, held a promise of the spectacle to come. A delicate, cool breeze carried the faint scent of salt and adventure, caressing the senses like a whispered secret. Suzie tiptoed out of the bedroom and washed her face downstairs. She then busied herself in the kitchen. It had been two weeks since the couple had stayed on the island, and there hadn't been a single day when Suzie woke up early to prepare breakfast. Partly because it was Javier's fault for keeping her up late, but whenever she did wake up, Javier had already cooked breakfast and cleaned the kitchen. Even the dishes were taken care of by Javier. There wasn't much else for Suzie to do but watch her handsome, gorgeous husband handle the chores. Suzie appreciated his efforts. However, she also wanted to showcase her cooking ski

    Suzie woke up, feeling an ache in her lower body. She opened her eyes and saw sunlight peeking in through the curtains.How long had it been since she was out?She slowly sat up straight and felt the stinging sensation again. She couldn't help but blame the man once more for being too fierce last night.It was as if the married couple had a connection; Javier appeared at the door, holding a warm glass of water.He looked surprised to see Suzie awake. He hurriedly walked in and handed her the water."You're awake. How do you feel?" Guilt and self-blame were evident on Javier's face. He knew that he had been too rough last night.Suzie wanted to scold him, but seeing him like this, her heart softened. Still, she glared at him. "You were indeed too rough last night."Javier gently helped Suzie to her feet. "I'm sorry. I lost control. Mrs. Zhou kept you away from me for three days—how could I not miss you?" Javier couldn't help but drag Mrs. Zhou into the conversation.Three days without

    "....so just look at me and don't be nervous." A voice sounded on the front, breaking the fight that was about to start. Ambassador Milliard and Uncle Surge had already arrived in front of the bride's waiting room. At the door, Javier was almost hugging the door as he spoke with a pitiful voice, "I really wanted to see you. I haven't seen you for three days. Mrs. Luo is too strict." "We will see each other in a few minutes. So go to the hall and wait for me. Let my makeup artists work in peace," Suzie's voice sounded from inside the room. "...Alright. I miss you so bad, wife." Ambassador Milliard: "...." Uncle Surge: "...." Fortunately, they were the only people here. If other guests happened to pass by, Javier's image would completely shift from that of a peerless young CEO to that of a lovestruck fool, simping for his wife. The door swung open, and Javier, who had been clinging to it, almost stumbled forward. Mrs. Luo emerged from the room and deliberately avoided him. "Jus

    Many people began talking about the couple again. Some were a bit regretful that the wedding of the century was not publicized on the TV. They could only get some news and updates from the social media of the guests.In a salon, a group of young misses were browsing their phones as they were getting pedicures.One of the young ladies saw the post and the discussion. She sat up straight in shock and the pedicurist almost ruined the nail polish she was applying on her toes."Wow! The whole island?! This is amazing! The island is so beautiful! I want to go there!" The young woman squealed. She glanced at the young woman at the far end of their group."Bianca, Mr. Albretch has gifted a very massive and beautiful island to your sister. We can go there, right?"Bianca was also browsing her phone. Even though she did not want to see the news about the wedding, everyone was talking about it and the photos from the island kept showing up on the hot search. She naturally saw this discussion.Wh

    The sun hung low in the sky. The sea, a vast mirror of shimmering azure, stretched as far as the eye could see, its waves whispering secrets to the shore. Glistening flecks of sunlight danced upon the water's surface, a prelude to the symphony of colors that was about to unfold.The gentle lull of the waves created a serene backdrop, a tranquil cadence that set the rhythm for the impending ceremony.Seagulls soared gracefully above, their calls mingling with the rustling of palm fronds swaying in the warm breeze. The air held a hint of salt, making people feel as if they were in the sea's embrace, welcoming all who had gathered to witness this union of souls.At the water's edge, a carefully crafted boarding ramp stood adorned with seashells and diaphanous fabrics that fluttered in harmony with the wind. There was red carpet for the guest who embarked from their private boats.Delicate petals, kissed by sunlight, were scattered along the sandy aisle, guiding the way to the heart of th

    ..... While Suzie was busy pampering herself, Javier, the groom, was also solving some things on his own. He took a break from his busy schedule and visited the City Z penitentiary. City Z's prison had the maximum security in the country where high-profiled criminals with heavy chargers were assigned to. Because of Colton's identity and the long list of his punishment, he was assigned to this place. "Inmate 1206, you have a visitor!" A correctional officer banged on a certain cell's door with his baton. A thin man stood up with a confused expression. He followed the correctional officer to the visiting area. When he saw the person through the partition glass, the thin man paused. The compliant look on his face shifted for a moment. Javier was sitting on the other side with a calm gaze. He pointed at the telephone beside the partition glass. The correctional officer pushed the thin man, "Inmate 1206, you only have fifteen minutes." The thin man had no choice but to sit. He hes
