"Sir, Miss Natasha is attempting suicide again."James wrung his hands as he received a report from his subordinate on the news of Natasha, once again seeking reproach for ending her life. It turns out that Natasha wasn't content to take her suicide to the extreme by jumping into a ravine with her car.After two weeks, James received news that Natasha was still alive and even stranger. There were no severe injuries on his wife's body other than a wound on her head. Although Natasha was critical, James was happy because he managed to find his wife again.Natasha might not be able to accept a demon like her. Maybe Natasha was traumatized by seeing James brutally kill his opponent who tried to disturb his peace. But this is how James should be able to accept the shortcomings of her husband, who has always tried to cover up his identity, which was finally revealed too.If you ask if James loves Natasha, of course, the answer is yes.James loves Natasha, an innocent woman who three years a
"Daddy!"Axel was surprised when his father suddenly came and opened the door to his room. Just as Tessa was sitting on Axel's lap, Tessa quickly jumped down from Axel's lap, which was entangling her body."You guys do anything perverted in the office?" Xander acted casually and chose to walk over to the couch and sit there.Xander's eyes glanced briefly at Tessa. Xander thought that he was not wrong to hire Tessa's services at such a fantastic price. Because it was evident from Tessa's performance that Xander had no doubts."Daddy, what made Daddy come to the company?" Axel tried to change the subject."Hmm. I just came to visit and see how you're doing as CEO." Xander crossed his legs and smiled a smirk."I'm still trying to adjust to the company situation, Dad, and I also still have a lot to learn." Axel was a little nervous about his father asking about Tessa again."I see you've taken a liking to the new secretary. It's only been two days since she started working with you, but i
"Hmmm." Tessa started the engine and drove the car out of the office parking lot. Tessa would show Axel that her car could not be underestimated because its speed was not inferior to the latest cars."Where are we going on a date?" Axel opened the conversation after marveling at Tessa's serious and beautiful face while driving.''Because it's my first date... I want to do it like a normal couple, even though we're not lovers,'' Tessa said, giving Axel a glance before focusing on the road ahead.''Your first date? You've never dated anyone before,'' Axel said, surprised to hear that fact. To be honest, he wasn't sure. Considering Tessa's pretty face, there was no way no one would be interested in her, then, James? Weren't they close before?"No... I've never dated before; does that matter to you? Tessa looked back at Axel's face who looked incredulous at what she was saying. But that was the fact.''I've honestly never dated anyone either.'' There was one thing in common between the tw
Axel came out of the dressing room. And he tried to find Tessa's whereabouts, which turned out to be after he looked for the woman with a man named Matthew. Just now, Axel told Tessa not to get too close to the man. But it seems that Tessa is still violating her prohibition. Axel did not immediately approach Tessa; he only monitored her from a distance. Axel is just trying to hold himself back from looking too possessive. I don't know what's happening to him, maybe because this is the first time Axel has started a relationship with a woman. Even though they weren't dating, just bed partners, was it wrong for him to be angry about this? Axel approached Tessa casually. The fire of jealousy was already burning in his heart, and yes, he was jealous now.''Tessa...''''aaa Matthew we'll talk another time, okay.'' Tessa smiled and tried to end the conversation when Axel was beside her.''Come on...'' Tessa blinked her eyes and picked up two helmets, one of which she handed to Axel. However,
"I'm going home first. Just prepare the necessary things to bring tomorrow, the most important thing is not to let it burden you." Axel said goodbye to Tessa before getting into his private car.Axel rolled down the window slightly to look at Tessa's face before the car finally drove away.Tessa got back into her car and continued her journey back home.She had no idea what Natasha was doing in her apartment. Tessa had forgotten that someone else was living in her house at the moment."What's she doing? I forgot. Did Natasha have dinner?" Tessa thought to herself and picked up the pace of her car.A few minutes only seemed like a minute spent by Tessa with a race like it would deliver her to heaven. How could Tessa not drive her car at high speed through the streets of Seattle, which were fortunately no longer crowded with other vehicles?Tessa walked into her apartment. The fragrant smell of cooking immediately wafted to her senses. Tessa's footsteps continued into the pantry, and sh
"Where are you going?" Natasha looked at Tessa, who was taking out a suitcase from her room."I have to go on a business trip to Japan for two weeks... Sorry, Natasha, I have to leave you alone." Tessa put down her suitcase and approached Natasha. Tessa smiled and rubbed Natasha's shoulder."Take care, Tessa; have a good trip.""You have to be careful too; okay, I'll take my leave, Natasha." Tessa handed her over to the taxi driver.Natasha waved goodbye as the taxi passed out of her sight. Natasha tried to go back into the house, but when her body turned around, she was surprised by the cloth covering her surface. Natasha no longer knew what was happening as her vision turned dark."Close the door," James ordered his men to close the door to Tessa's apartment.James looked at his wife's face, who was currently losing consciousness. Because of the anesthetic he gave her, he knew this was too cruel to do to Natasha, but there was no other way but to take Natasha back to her studio in C
"We're going to live in the same apartment?" Tessa was confused as Axel led her to an apartment in the Osaka area."Hmmm. We'll be living together for two weeks." Axel put his hand on Tessa's waist and rubbed it gently."There are separate rooms here, right?" Tessa turned her body to look back at Axel."Only one. The other room is a warehouse." Axel deliberately lied to Tessa, but the look on Tessa's face looked at him in disbelief."Are you trying to trick me? I don't have a problem with you saying you want to sleep together; there's just one thing you have to remember! I have rules, and I have boundaries when you choose me to be your bed partner." Tessa's hand was on Axel's bicep as her hand slowly rubbed and turned into a small squeeze."Since when are there rules?""From today onwards, if you agree, then we will continue; if you don't agree, then end this partnership." Tessa folded her arms across her chest; she didn't want to be treated as Axel wanted. She also had the right to d
''Are your lips only for swearing at me? I like the sound of your sighs better than your cursing.'' Axel looked at Tessa's face, which was closed again. He was sure Tessa was listening to what he was saying.''I think the information about you being gay is wrong! They should have written you off as a sex maniac!" Tessa pulled back the blanket and changed her position to sitting.''hmm... I'm only a maniac with you, not with other women.'' Axel hugged Tessa's body wrapped in the blanket, pushed Tessa's hair to the left side, and left a small peck on Tessa's shoulder.****"You can cook food?" Tessa couldn't believe her eyes when she saw Axel in the pantry with his apron on.Tessa's feet stepped closer to the dining table, choosing to sit down. And watching Axel from a distance, she had no intention of helping or approaching Axel; Tessa just watched enough."I thought you were going to help me." Axel turned his body to look at Tessa, both hands resting on his waist."No... I'm not going
"Please don't stress too much Mrs. Josephine. Congratulations on your pregnancy," the doctor said, still leaving Tessa in shock. Even her hands were shaking violently. Tessa could hardly believe that she was pregnant, and that she could only find out two months after her husband's death,her body was so thin it was almost like a living skeleton. Tessa walked out with tears already welling up in her eyes. She no longer had the strength to take a step, amongst all the pain that still lingered. There was always Berlin to witness it all, her body falling into Berlin's warm embrace. "Tessa, is everything okay?" Berlin whispered, holding Tessa's falling body. Tessa's tears were all she could muster. Her lips were pressed together so tightly that she couldn't even let out a sob. It was all too shocking, she didn't know whether to be happy or sad to receive this news. Sadly. Berlin was again faced with Tessa's devastation which gave her Dejavu. Seeing Tessa in ruin for the second time,
"How is Mr. Josephine? Is this resting place big enough?" Hardin gazed at the burial place he had reserved. A very peaceful place to fall asleep in peace, Hardin also chose right under a tree that would protect him from the heat. "Very good. I agree to take this," Hardin replies to the person who helped him find a good burial spot. "Okay. But I apologize in advance. Who will be keeping it?" "Someone who will like it," Hardin replies with a smile. "I'm sorry for your sadness, Mr. Josephine. After this, I hope you get the best replacement," says the cemetery owner. "Thank you." Hardin turned back and looked at the places that had been filled. Many of the years were old, but Hardin would be the youngest to rest here. "Hello. I'm Hardin Josephine, I hope I can make good friends with you guys later," Hardin monologues to himself. Hardin looked up at the clear sky. He smiled with his eyes closed. God. If something happens to me someday. Please make sure the one I love is in a w
As he promised yesterday, today Hardin fulfills all of Tessa's wishes. From surfing to jet skiing and banana boat rides. Now they're recharging their batteries by sipping coconut water on the beach, leaning back on a couple of beach chairs. Hardin is possessive as he doesn't let go of Tessa's hand even though they're both just lying down."Honey, are you asleep?" asks Hardin, uncovering Tessa's beach hat that covers his wife's beautiful face.Sure enough, Tessa was sleeping peacefully, Hardin shielding Tessa's face with the beach hat. Hardin's eyes scan Tessa's face in full, his wife looks so beautiful there's no one like her, not even the goddess Aphrodite."Stop watching my face, I'm going to explode now." Tessa opens her eyes, she can't stand being watched intensely by Hardin."I thought you were asleep, turns out you were lying." Hardin moves closer to Tessa's face, giving a small peck to the small lips smeared with cherry-scented lipgloss."Almost, but you woke me up." Tessa chan
France, ParisTessa looked up at the Eiffel Tower in front of her eyes. She was with Hardin who hugged her body from behind, Tessa's breath emitted smoke as it turned out that the night in the Eiffel was getting colder. Because of the change of season that will soon be winter, Tessa did not stop smiling as she raised her head to enjoy the beautiful spark of fireworks."When did you prepare all this?" Tessa turns her head slightly to look into Hardin's face, clasping his hand tightly in her coat pocket."While you were gone, I called someone and told them what I wanted." Hardin nuzzles the top of Tessa's head.Tessa turns her body and looks into Hardin's eyes, one hand caresses Hardin's face and slightly stands on tiptoe to reach Hardin's face and kiss him gently."I'm so happy to be with you," Tessa says in a small whisper in front of Hardin's face."Me too." Hardin kisses the top of Tessa's hand.Tessa hugs Hardin's body tightly, the fear growing since a few days ago. Tessa wishes ev
A woman stands in a field of tulips. Her hair tied back, she is still busy tending to the plants with both hands. Tessa smiled as she successfully planted two new colors of tulips in her grandmother's backyard. Tessa continued to work on Camelia's flower shop which had grown in size, Tessa tried to stand up with one hand holding her belly which had again grown so large that it hindered her movement slightly."Madam you have too much to do today." Tessa again heard the small tone of the woman's voice that seemed to worry whenever she looked busy, even though Tessa loved all the work she did."Rania stop worrying so much. He and I are fine," Tessa rubbed the surface of her stomach."I'm just afraid of earning your husband's wrath." Rania made a pouty face."My husband can't get mad at you, as long as I'm with him." "I know what you're talking about Rania." Tessa twisted her body and turned around, she stared at the man who walked up to her still wearing his office suit."Honey, why d
The atmosphere was so sacred. Among the white roses that adorned the outdoor space, chairs were arranged neatly. With a white piano in the corner of the altar, everything was so beautiful that day.Tessa gazed up at everything from the second floor, she could see the atmosphere of the wedding venue. Tessa stood in a wedding dress with long flowing tails, the sleeves of which Sabrina had sprinkled with pearls on the chest. Tessa's head was beautifully adorned with pearls, the smile never fading from her face. "You look so happy," Berlin stood at the door, carrying a bouquet of orchids and white roses arranged in a beautiful little dangle."Of course," Tessa added, spreading her arms, welcoming Berlin who came running towards her."Happy new life my Queen." Berlin let go of her embrace, letting her tears fall on the bouquet in her hand."Why are you fucking crying!" Tessa cursed Berlin with a laugh."You bitch! You beat me to the wedding." Berlin joined in on Tessa's cursing, Berlin we
"You're not tired! I know you're sick!" Tessa covered her face as she cried in front of Hardin. Tessa felt like she couldn't do anything even though she was a doctor. She should have been more sensitive to this, but Tessa foolishly felt no suspicion at all."Baby, I'll get better." Hardin covers both of Tessa's shoulders and pulls her into a hug."You should have talked to me... Don't keep it to yourself, I'm your wife! No one else." Tessa continued to speak with a tightness that seemed to fill her chest."Who said you were the neighbor's wife?" Hardin laughed loudly."Hardin! I'm serious," Tessa punches Hardin in the chest."Crazy! I'm cured, I've got a really good personal doctor." "Who?" Tessa looks Hardin in the eye."You." Hardin strokes Tessa's cheek, wiping away the tears that still flow from Tessa's beautiful eyes."I'm serious. We need to go to the hospital, I need to know your pain in detail... What have you been feeling all this time?" Tessa still can't forget what happen
With only a glass wall as a barrier. Tessa looked down at the little fairy Athena who lay with several devices on her body, Tessa stared at the bag of blood that was still not full. This was already the second bag she would be giving to Athena."Hang in there little fairy, after this Aunty is sure Athena is much stronger." Tessa thought to herself, she seemed to have telepathy with the unconscious Athena."Miss Tessa the blood donation is complete." The nurse helped Tessa to remove the needle in her hand.Tessa changed her position to sitting. She looked at Athena with a feeling that was somehow so fearful, Tessa seemed to have an inner bond with the little girl. Hadn't Tessa said it wasn't the first time, she felt the same way.Tessa got off the hospital gurney. She walked out of the room, Axel's face and her husband Hardin's. Isn't it, a scene like this hasn't happened in a long time. Directly or indirectly the three of them were reunited-- albeit under inappropriate circumstances.
Axel stopped by a shop where he remembered that his daughter loved windmill-shaped candy. Before picking Athena up, Axel bought some candy."Athena will love it..." Axel smiled touching the various cute shapes of candies displayed in the window."Do you have anything else to add, sir?" "Not enough of these," Axel said as he took out a few bills from his pocket.After receiving the bag and completing the payment Axel walked back to his car. His foot stepped into the left door and sat behind the steering wheel, placing the plastic bag with his daughter's favorite thing right on his right side.The smile on Axel's lips didn't stop as his fingers continued to do a little dance as he gripped the steering wheel. The journey to his daughter's school only took about twenty minutes by car, but it seemed like the school was deserted. Axel's feet stepped out of the car into the schoolyard, he tried to find Athena among the students who were still waiting for their parents to pick them up."Miss
