Tera had reached a point of exhaustion, boredom, and frustration that went right to her core. This was because Sebastian still hadn't returned, even though it was already 9 o'clock in the evening. Sebastian completely forbade Tera from leaving the house, not even letting her out of the room. As a result, Tera had been cooped up in her room all day. She received her meals from the rotating servants who brought her heavy meals three times a day and light snacks twice a day.Although today's menu was delicious, Tera couldn't truly appreciate the food. She sat in the darkness of her room, contemplating her situation. It was the same feeling she had when staying in her mother-in-law's room.Tera paced back and forth in the room, then sat down, sprawled on the bed, and rolled around restlessly. She was infuriated and could not accept her husband's behavior. She longed for her sister Tora and desperately wanted to contact her.Amid the turmoil in her mind and heart, the room's door suddenly
Tera had lost interest in keeping track of how long she had spent in this room. Day and night had blurred into one another countless times. Perhaps it had been a week or more. What she knew for sure was that she was fed up with staying in this room and becoming her husband's outlet. Sebastian always entered the room when the clock showed nine at night. He wouldn't waste any time with pleasantries and would head straight to the bathroom to freshen up. After feeling clean and fresh, Sebastian would approach Tera and ask for what was rightfully his.He would try to coax Tera gently, but if she continued to refuse, he might use slight coercion that didn't cause any pain, unlike the first time. Sebastian satisfied his desires within Tera's body throughout the night. Sometimes, when Sebastian was too tired from his various responsibilities, he would only make the request once and then sleep. But on nights when he was full of energy, Sebastian found it hard to stop. He made the most of Tera'
For some reason, Tera felt indignant at all of Sebastian's words. Each sentence he spoke seemed to accuse Tera of being an inadequate mother, even a terrible one, for letting her child cry and throw tantrums in the garden. Yet Tera genuinely cared, but she knew that the guards wouldn't allow her to leave the room, not even a step.She felt torn. Sebastian, driven by his anger about many things, was using Tera as a punching bag for his pent-up emotions. Tera would always be the losing side in any confrontation, and she wouldn't be able to press Sebastian Lim.Tera didn't want to hear more from him, so she moved and walked away from Sebastian, who was still furious. She wanted to avoid any more arguments because she knew she could never win. She would always be on the losing end and couldn't challenge Sebastian.But Tera didn't expect Sebastian to grab her hand and drag her to the nearest wall, silencing her protests with a brutal and intense kiss. Sebastian pressed his body against Ter
"What would you like to eat, my dear?" Tera asked.The question received an immediate and firm shake of Nora's head. Nora covered her face with the blanket that wrapped around her. "My princess, why are you hiding under the blanket, darling?" Sebastian pulled the blanket Nora was using down gently, planting warm kisses on her forehead and cheeks. "What would you like to eat, Nora? Daddy will prepare it for you.""I don't want to! Nora doesn't want to eat!" the girl whined.Tera, growing impatient, finally lay down beside Nora, holding her in her arms. Nora seemed comfortable in the embrace of Tera, someone she had missed for a long time. She closed her eyes and didn't speak much. Meanwhile, Sebastian was savoring the scent of the baby oil that warmed his daughter's body.Fifteen minutes ago, Tera had wiped away all the sweat clinging to Nora's body. The woman had carefully wiped every inch of Nora's body, from her feet to her head. After wiping with warm water, Tera had then massaged
Sebastian woke up in a panic. The man looked around the bed and throughout the room. But unfortunately, Sebastian couldn't find Tera anywhere. Sebastian got out of bed quickly, the man went to the bathroom and found the room empty and clean. Sebastian walked into the study and didn't find Sebastian there.Sebastian left the room, several guards said that Tera had gone to the back garden with Nora. Sebastian let out a super relieved sigh after hearing that, the man went into the bathroom and cleaned himself.After showering and getting ready in a short time, Sebastian headed to the back garden. The man found Sofia, Nora and Tera playing in the park. The three of them were having a picnic and camping in the back garden. Nora played with dolls, while Tera fed Nora patiently and attentively, and Sofia was still building the tent which had been collapsing continuously."Come on honey, open her mouth" begged Tera," Aaaaa .. "Nora opened her mouth, the little girl ate the contents of the s
Sebastian went to the office in frustration, trying to persuade Tera multiple times, but her responses were not satisfactory. She simply said that she was tired after their intimate moment and just needed some time.For a whole hour, Sebastian held her on their bed, soothing every ounce of anger and other feelings. During that time, he wondered whether Tera was unsatisfied with their intimacy or if he had been too forceful.Thinking about it the entire way to the Trust Group, he stared out of the window with a grim expression. Tera had indeed taken control of his thoughts. The plump girl who had driven a public bus had always been a challenge and difficult to handle, forcing him to retreat and do whatever was right."You have a visitor," Wilson greeted as they had just exited the car.Sebastian's eyebrows raised spontaneously; it wasn't usual for Wilson to announce visitors this way. Wilson was an exemplary, polite, and always respectful employee. He was one of Sebastian's most truste
Sebastian entered a modest apartment on the outskirts of town. It was a humble place with two average-sized rooms. He entered awkwardly, not being accustomed to such a small apartment.On one of the nightstands, he saw numerous portraits of Viona. A beautiful, sweet, and adorable figure. Sebastian was always drawn to this type of character, especially petite, feisty, and charming. It was a type he couldn't resist, much like Tera.Sebastian reached for one of the photo frames, observing Viona's face, which hadn't changed a bit despite the passing years. Viona had grown, but she was still the same Viona he had loved. The girl he adored. The petite woman who always fascinated him.When they were in their early twenties, Sebastian and Viona met quite by chance. Viona studied at the same university as Sebastian, albeit a different department. They were both young Indonesians who crossed paths abroad, which meant their connection was established much faster than usual. Moreover, they were f
"Stevan, dear. This is...""Sebastian," Mr. Lim interjected, hugging Viona gently but formally. He stepped back to create a safe distance between them.Sebastian quickly approached Stevan, trying to prevent any explanations Viona might provide."I'm Sebastian, your mom's friend," Sebastian continued. He wasn't avoiding the situation; he just needed time to process everything. He was still in shock, and he couldn't allow Viona to introduce him as Stevan's father in this initial meeting. Everything needed time, including this.The eight-year-old boy stood at the doorstep, looking bewildered. His face was adorable and innocent, a well-raised child by his mother. Even though they had a modest lifestyle, there was no sign of a single mother raising him in simplicity. Stevan's bright eyes assessed Sebastian's outstretched hand, then went up and down to inspect the appearance of this unknown adult who dared to embrace his mother."I'm Stevan," the boy replied while shaking Sebastian's hand.
