Sena opened her eyes slowly when she heard a knock on her bedroom door. At first Sena wanted to ignore whoever was currently knocking on her door because she felt so tired. However, whoever was in front of her room's door didn't seem like they would give up until Sena actually came out of the room.“Urrgh, is resting in peace a lavish request that I have to be bothered like this?”She lazily glanced at the clock on the table before finally walking towards the door while yawning widely. But, she was a little surprised when she saw who had been knocking on her door. She had thought that Aunt Marrie must have done it because she really enjoyed disturbing Sena's peace. But it turns out that at her door is Wendy. The little girl is wearing her school uniform. Her braided hair looks a little messy, even though her hair is usually always neat when she is going to school. Ah! Sena had so many things to think about, she forgot a unique routine that she had every morning since living in this ho
The atmosphere in the ward suddenly became silent when Dannie opened his eyes. No one spoke, but from the corner of her eye, Sena could clearly see Sony's current expression. Dannie's uncle opened his eyes wide, looking very shocked by what was happening in front of his eyes. Meanwhile, Rossa.. Sena furrowed her brows when she realized that Rossa's expression only cracked for a moment. Now her expression was back to normal, so calm without any expression."Dannie..?"After gawking long enough, then Sony spoke. His voice was hoarse and with trembling hands he rubbed his eyes many times to make sure that Dannie really opened his eyes. Seeing that, made Sena look at Dannie's face which still looked weak, just like someone who is very sick and has just woken up from a long tiring sleep. It seemed that there was enough shock. It would be 'better' if they called a doctor now. Sena sighed, then the next second she started screaming frantically,"Doctor! Doctor! We have to call doctor!”In a
'The only one who can save you is yourself, no one else'Since the betrayal committed by her father, that sentence has become Sena's life principle. She doesn't like having to depend on other people for her life. That's why she always exerts her best ability to face all problems or to get all her wishes. Likewise today, she gambled on that principle. Risking his life to save Wendy and escape from the Walters family. Sena didn't yet fully know what was going on, and for that matter, Dannie had promised to explain to Sena in more detail after he left the hospital later.They walked quite far before finally Rossa stopped right in a quiet corridor. After that, she turned her body and looked at Sena with a flat gaze, making it difficult for Sena to read her mind. Even since the first time Sena met Rossa, Rossa's gaze was one of the things she was most afraid of from that elegant woman. Eyes that seem flat and disinterested, but capable of skinning other people to the deepest part. That's w
"I refuse this marriage!"Dannie repeated his words in a firm voice while looking at Sena's face with his chin up. There was an arrogant expression on his face that again, made Sena want to punch him in the face.“Come on, uncle! What answer do you expect to come out of my mouth when I know this absurd news? I just woke up from a coma and you're suddenly saying that I'm married? Have you forgotten that I already have a girlfriend? Ah, yes, where is Sarah now?”Girlfriend?Sena widened her eyes, completely surprised when Dannie said the name of a woman who he said was his girlfriend. Wait! Sena did not hear at all information like this. Either from the news spread on the internet or even from the mouths of the Walters family! All Sena knows is that Dannie fell into a coma before turning 20 years old. Besides that, when Rossa and Sony took Sena to the civil registry office, they only told her about Dannie and his family, which Sena already knew almost everything through the internet.“U
It didn't take long for Sena to reach the meeting place that Dannie meant. A place that is a clothing materials store. Now Sena slightly understood what Dannie meant by saying that he had chosen a pretty good place to speak. If indeed Rossa sent someone to spy on Sena's movements, then this is a pretty smart idea. After all, as a designer, visiting a cloth shop is a natural thing.A woman with her hair in an elegant bun greeted Sena as soon as she entered. Without asking anything, the woman started walking and motioned for Sena to follow her, as if she already knew what Sena came here for. They climbed a few stairs before finally arriving at a room which is at the end of a corridor."I can only accompany Miss up here. Then I'll excuse myself."The woman bowed her body politely before finally leaving Sena right in front of the door. This time Sena opened the door of the room without the slightest hesitation because she already knew what was waiting for her inside. As soon as she opened
The first thing you have to do is play-act.You have to show those people that you have genuine feelings for me. And it all started with visiting as often as possible until I got out of the hospital. Well, maybe about two weeks? I'm going to have Paul arrange treatment for me and during that time, it's obligatory for you to visit me and act like you do care about me.During those two weeks, I would have my people spread the word that we were starting to get really close. And in those two weeks, I instantly fell in love with you. After that, I will also join the play with you. I will act as if you are someone who is very valuable to me. I will act as if the world and my life centered on you. It is also in this phase that you must always be vigilant. I promise to protect you as much as I can, because at this stage, you will be the person most targeted by my enemies. Oh yeah, apart from pretending to be a good wife for me, you also have to be able to take my uncle and aunt's trust. You s
"That's the reason why for me, what I'm doing right now is my life."Sena ended her story which she thought was very long. In the past, she would feel very sad whenever she remembered this story. Now, the feeling of sadness is not as bad as it used to be."Your story is quite touching-"Dannie hugged his knees as he rested his head on them. Since earlier, he had been listening intently to Sena's story, without interrupting one bit,"Especially about your parents. You must have been devastated when you learned the fact that your father was having an affair.”"Well, maybe not more devastated than you were when you learned of the fact that the person closest to you was a traitor."Dannie's facial expression suddenly turned sour after hearing Sena's words. He was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about something very deep. The atmosphere around them immediately turned extremely gloomy, making Sena feel instantly uncomfortable. She started thinking and rummaging through her head t
"Are you sure you've met me before? Because I feel like I've never seen uncle before.”Sana furrowed her brows. No matter how hard she tried to remember, she couldn't find any memory of Uncle Sony in her memory."Of course! My first meeting with you was very memorable. So there's no way I could forget!”Answer uncle Sony confidently.“I first met you a few years ago. I still remember that time you were wearing a school uniform-"Ah, now Sena understands why she doesn't remember about Uncle Sony at all, even though he said their meeting was quite memorable. The school days were the times when nothing would leave an imprint on Sena's head except for her parents and aunt Marrie."At that time.."Sony recalled a memory that occurred several years ago which was the beginning of his meeting with Sena. He still remembers that time, it was almost night with the heavy rain that kept on pouring down the city. The rain that lasted since morning making the streets very quiet. It seems, people don
"Welcome back!"Dannie's bright smile immediately greeted Sena as soon as she opened the door to their room. The man was sitting reading a book, as if he was enjoying his time leisurely. Without answering Dannie's greeting, Sena immediately threw her bag anywhere. She quickly approached the man and pulled his collar so that Dannie's head looked up at her."You owe me an explanation..."Sena said to Dannie in a low voice. Different from usual, this time Sena didn't grumble or scream in annoyance. She actually looked calm without any expression on her face. Only her eyes spoke. The eyes that were now looking at Dannie with a sharp gaze mixed with a look of disappointment, which for some reason made Dannie's heart feel... hurt? Dannie didn't answer Sena's question. He just stared at the girl's face silently while reaching out his hand slowly and touching Sena's cheek. If usually Sena would immediately avoid his touch while grumbling, this time Sena just kept quiet and let Dannie touch he
It was the first time Paul saw his father sobbing (which Paul honestly didn't understand why). Indeed, his father respected Mr. Peter's family very much, but wasn't the death of their first child really due to his own negligence? For someone as strict with the rules as himself, what Kyllian was doing was ridiculous in Paul's eye. Yes, very ridiculous and irresponsible. Didn't he as an adult understand very well how dangerous drunk driving is? After all, don't they come from wealthy families? What's wrong with asking one of the drivers to pick him up? Or if not, he can use the services of a substitute driver. But instead of doing all of those options, he just acts reckless and ridiculous! So, according to Paul, what Kyllian experienced was the result of his own actions and he must take full responsibility for it.But Paul's father didn't seem to accept it when his son badmouthed his beloved young master. Instead, he scolded Paul and defended Kyllian with all his might, saying that it w
"What are you doing here?"If eyes could speak, then that would be what the eyes of everyone in this room would say. The surprised look then changed to a look of disdain, as if to say “Duh, looks like this woman doesn't know her position at all. How dare she come here without any notice?!” And all of that made Sena secretly sigh, to be honest she didn't want to be here either, but since everything has already happened, then just do it. Later, once everything was settled, she'd make sure to give that damn Dannie a lesson or two!In that quite spacious room sat twenty people whom Sena recognized as members of the Walters family she had met at a dinner a few days ago. You could say all the members of the Walters family involved in the company were present, including Serena and Mark. Although there were some faces she didn't really remember because she had never met them before. Including a young man sitting right next to Mark.Sena?The first to call her was Uncle Sony. The man sat strai
That idiot..Sena clenched her fists tightly as she reached the front of Walters' corporate headquarters. Though it had never once entered her head that she would personally come to this building. This 7-floor building will be the starting place for the battle.“Hahaha, what a fight! That man just wants to throw the responsibility on me..”Muttered Sena with an ironic tone. She didn't know why she suddenly had to be here to replace Dannie, but somehow she could feel something was wrong. As far as Sena could remember, Dannie had never mentioned anything about today's meeting of company officials. And seeing Dannie's behavior, he also didn't seem to expect that this meeting would happen.Sena actually didn't mind if Dannie asked her to join at the forefront of the battlefield in facing the Walters family. But wouldn't it be common sense for him to tell Sena ahead of time what plans he had? What annoyed Sena was that Dannie did the exact opposite! He didn't say whatever was on his mind,
This second mission can be said to be the main mission of all the revenge plans that Dannie will do. He would risk everything to make sure everything worked out. That's why right now he was standing in front of Sena, looking at the girl who was opening one by one the stacks of books in front of her. Occasionally Sena fixes the glasses that fall down her nose, while scratching her head. From her face, anyone could tell that the girl was trying hard to learn something. Sena's face grew even more sour when Dannie put a few more books on the pile that was already quite high.Because Dannie was about to start his revenge, he felt the need to teach Sena many things, starting from the history of the Walters family business, the company's branches and the types of commodities that the company focuses on. He also repeated information about the Walters family to Sena, especially regarding the power hierarchy within the family. Because according to Dannie, Sena's knowledge is still very low, tha
From the end of the corridor, Dannie could see that there were many people standing in front of their room, including his uncle, aunts and Serena. Just by looking at their gazes and expressions, Dannie immediately guessed what was going on there and made his heart feel like it was being squeezed tightly."No, don't let them suspect you."To be honest he wanted to step up and push his way through the crowd to check on Sena's condition. However, a voice in his head seemed to be asking him to wake up and remember his current position. If he rushed in rashly and panicked, he definitely wouldn't be able to push through the alibi he had concocted in his head the moment he saw the crowd of people. He prepared many scenarios in his head to save Sena from all the accusations that might be leveled by his family.Dannie took a few deep breaths to calm the turmoil inside his head.“Calm down Dannie! You are still far from your goal! If you fail now, you won't be able to avenge your family!”He ke
At first Sena thought, as soon as people left the them alone, Dannie would immediately let go of his arms from Sena's body. Maybe they would start talking about who might have sent that man here. Because as far as Sena knew, the only ones who had the keys to this room were she and Dannie. But it seems that Sena's guess was wrong, even after everyone left, Dannie still hugged her body. He just hugged Sena's body without saying a word, making the atmosphere between them become silent. Nothing could be heard other than the sound of their breathing and heartbeat.Sena didn't know what really happened to Dannie. Why was he reacting so strangely like this? With his body shaking like before, it was impossible for Sena not to think that he was really worried about Sena. But why? It didn't seem like long since she first met Dannie. She still remembered very clearly how Dannie reacted that night, when someone attacks her. How calm Dannie was when he saw Sena fighting alone to take down the man
“There are a few things we need to agree on before we start this marriage. The first, may not interfere in each other's personal affairs unless it can endanger the lives of other parties. Second, we must respect each other's rights. It is prohibited to ask one of the parties to do things that are not agreed upon. And finally, you may not touch the other party, let alone do sexual things without consent. If any of us violates this agreement, then they must be severely punished!”Sena's body froze instantly when she felt a strong hand that she was one hundred percent sure belonged to a man wrapped around her body. Instantly her conversation with Dannie when they discussed this marriage rang in her ears."If you touch me, I make sure your body will end up crushed on the ground!""Don't worry, I won't touch you without your permission. I am a man of principle, I was brought up to respect the rights and opinions of others."Dannie said those words proudly while patting his chest, occasiona
"For your information, that was my first kiss."Sena widened her eyes as she listened to Dannie's words, who was currently standing beside her. Currently they are busy greeting invited guests, most of whom are business colleagues of the Walters family. Even Sena's cheeks felt sore from smiling too much. But, as soon as she heard Dannie's words just now, the aches on her face immediately disappeared. She stared at Dannie in disbelief, not bothering to hide the mocking expression on her face."Wow, really a very innocent man. I am truly honored as your wife to know about it."Dannie immediately smiled wryly when he heard Sena's words that were clearly mocking him. He grumbled in a low voice so no one could hear him."Hey, I'm telling the truth you know! This is literally my first kiss!"Sena just nodded her head with an expression as if to say “Oh yeah? Is it true? Oh, I believe you". Dannie, who seemed unable to accept Sena's suspicions, spoke again to defend himself."I could swear, y
