2021-10-23 23:58:32Marie tapped her fingers on her desk, suppressing the annoyance that filled her mind to the top of her head when she saw the figure of a man standing in front of her now currently trying to give her a good impression by boasting about his performance. Assuming that the success achieved by his company was largely due to his hard work––from the man's determination as well as his tenacity––as soon as she announced, without hesitation, terminate the man from his job position.
"Have you done with all of your blabberings?" she immediately stopped the intention of the man in his early forties who was about to resume an argument that the man considered it as a valid reason. “As I already told you before, your employment here has ended. You may go and pack your things right away. And if there is nothing else you want to tell me, you better get out of here––”
“I object to this unfair decision you made, Ms Clark! I told you just now!” shouted the man, advancing toward him until

It looks like the situation is really bad. He had been in that room, until now, he was observing Marie's room. At first, nothing went wrong, until Marie's personal assistant who had helped her deliver the lunch she had made to Marie came out of his wife's room with a pale face, and a man in his early forties entered his wife's room. Dimly he heard the commotion from the two people that could be heard in his room, luring him to get up from the chair he had been sitting in, approaching the door. “If it were not for me, a small company like this would not be growing as fast as it is now. Think about it carefully, Ms Clark. Is it because the company's recent poor performance made you think that the decision to fire me was the best decision you have ever made? No. You are wrong. Instead, you should be the one who needs to reflect your decision, Mrs Clark.” He clearly did not like the way the man spoke to Marie. The man was clearly trying to intimidate Marie in the

Marie stayed where she was when she saw the presence of Keith, who appeared in front of her like a knight in shining armour. Full of confidence and fearlessness, her husband walked with unearthly calm toward James, who smiled viciously at Keith's presence. “I was going to ask you whether you have eaten my lunch that I just sent you or not. But it looks like I arrived at the wrong time. Is not it?" Keith said it in a calm tone. There was not the slightest bit of fear in the man's tone of voice as he said that. "Ah, Mrs Clark's pet has finally appeared." Hearing the man's words alone had managed to pull her back from her shock at Keith's appearance. Her eyes widened when she saw James who without hesitation immediately spewed his bullet at Keith, making her whole body freeze again since she, who could no longer know what was going to happen next, immediately closed both of her eyes tightly. “Pet, you say? Interesting. No one has ever called me b

Keith was spending a lot of time just discussing with the four professional security guards of the building what they should do with James Wales. The long debate between him was pretty tough and long. He, who insisted on asking the four people to hand over James Wales to his people, who were waiting in front of Marie's company building after he contacted his men, with the professional security guards, who insisted on reporting James Wales to the police. Fortunately, after repeatedly persuading the officers to leave the matter to him, they finally agreed to hand over James Wales to his subordinates. The great effort he had to put in after repeatedly convincing the security guards that he was not a high school student as they thought, but a twenty-three-year-old man with his status as Marie's husband and had the right position to solve the issue better than them. Well, at least his efforts would not be going i

It would be a lie if she said she was not happy to see her husband, Keith Gilbert, who walked into her office room with such confidence. Saved her in a very cool way (of course, it was all from her point of perspective, and she did not care if it was just part of her delusion or not). But clearly, her joy was mixed with her shattered self-esteem with the fact that Keith had saved her again at a critical moment for the second time––the third time if she also put with the fact that Derek Skylar had told her a while ago. Letting him protect her clearly violated the pact she promised Keith's parents when she proposed to him. Moreover, she was still curious. How could Keith always appear in such a critical situation? How did the man manage to dodge James Walker's attack? It was clearly impossible, considering that James used a gun as his weapon when he attacked Keith without hesitation, while she knew full well that Keith was carrying nothing but himself. "I a

Cecilia got out of her car as soon as she arrived at the parking area of her penthouse building. She jogged around her car, opening the door for Tatius, who had looked dispirited since this morning. One of her hands opened the car door while her other hand immediately positioned itself on the top of Tatius's head, making sure that the man who had been making that kind of expression since the morning she picked him up for reasons she did not understand. "We have arrived," she closed her car door, then walked to the trunk of her car and pulled out Tatius' black suitcase. Curiosity mixed with anxiety made her unable to bear the question that had been bothering her for a long time. "Is something bothering you?" The man did not immediately answer her question. He seemed so busy wrestling with his own thoughts until she had to ask th

Leaving Tatius wondering what she meant by what she just said, she continued walking down the corridors until they arrived at her penthouse. They let go of Tatius's hand, gesturing for Tatius to come closer as she pressed her penthouse pin, showing it to Tatius so he could go in and out of his penthouse without having to rely on her. After the door opened, she ushered Tatius inside. The man's face was instantly filled with amazement that the man did not just hide as soon as his feet stepped inside. “It is very spacious…” Tatius walked around his penthouse. Then the man's attention was drawn to the living room area, which faces directly the gazebo with a small garden as a result of her hobby of gardening, which she always did in her spare time. The man turned around, facing her with an expectant look. "Can I go there?" "Of course you can. Why not?" she chuckled at Tatius' cute reaction, leaving the man's briefcase near one of the sofa chairs in the living room, leadin

Friendly and warm-hearted, huh? It seemed he had to rethink how Cecilia Esther thought or her perspective for judging people. He felt so. It was clear what was in front of him right now was a bear-type man. Yes, he called the man who introduced himself as Charles Hermann just like that in his mind when he met Cecilia Esther's adoptive father. Stature and had a muscular body just like any military man, with thin lips and a tall chin--a sign that the man liked practical and tactical things like the figures on the faces of soldiers in general. The man's body was so big compared to his body, which obviously that the man did not get that perfect body from the gym like most men do (except him, of course, considering that high-intensity exercise was a mortal sin for his heart condition), but from the results of natural physical exercise

The man's question now made him retract his assumption about the man's figure just now. He swallowed hard, feeling the nervousness that suddenly overtook him as soon as he heard the man's question just now. "Ah, sorry. I should have changed my question. Knowing my daughter’s behaviour pretty well, I am sure that it is definitely my daughter who approached you aggressively," the man chuckled, with a laugh that actually sounded sinister in his ears, yet at least managed to reduce the nervousness that had hit him just now. "I am just curious. Because you know, Kid, my only daughter was not in a good state after the person she loved did not reciprocate her feelings and decided to marry another person a few months ago. You know, broken-heart-things issue. Do youngsters nowadays still use that term?” "Well, we are still using that term

Our Agreement Chapter 302
[Sempione Park, Ponte delle Sirenete]Marie walked down the path in Sempione Park desperately. It had been almost a week since Keith had left home and asked for a divorce from her, making her immediately cancel all her work schedules for the next month to look for Keith.Armed with the information she got from Keith's parents that Keith went to Italy, precisely in Milan, she decided to book a ticket to Italy in a hurry.For days, she travelled the streets of Milan. She did not have any free time to explore the biggest and most complete fashion shopping centre there or visit tourist attractions. She only tried the local food, but only because she had to fill her stomach with food while trying to find her husband.Unfortunately, she had been in this place for a week, and she could not find her husband there. She was so stupid that she forgot to ask her mother-in-law where exactly Keith had gone in her panic. Now, she was confused, cursing her stupidity. How could she find Keith? Milan
Our Agreement Chapter 301
A few days later...Marie walked into her mansion feeling uncertain after parking her car in the garage. Her memories of what happened a few days ago at her extended family's house still felt like yesterday. It was hard for her to accept the fact that all this time, her husband had been hiding the fact about his identity as the head of the mafia. Also, the fact that her husband decided to kill all of her extended family, leaving only her father, Uncle Charles, and Cecilia.For days, she tried to understand why Keith did it. She rented a hotel on the edge of Rose City as a way to calm down. Not to the Pacifica Hotel, considering the fact that it was a gift from Dean Aldebrando as their wedding present, which would make Keith aware of her whereabouts. She wanted to get away from it all. He wanted to have time to himself, to reflect on everything. But last night, he realised one thing. Everything that happened didn't matter anymore. She found that compared to having her husband by he

Cecilia looked at her father who still didn't dare to look at her when she arrived at Gilbert's cafe ten minutes ago. She knew that her father was a rigid, military type of person, so it was difficult for her father to admit all of Keith's statements about the reasons behind her parents' deaths. That was the reason why she waited until her father was ready to tell her everything. But ten minutes was not a fast time, and she wanted to hear the truth directly from her father's lips, not from anyone else."I know this sounds hard for you to accept, but I'm doing all this for you-"PLAKK!!!Her attention was diverted from her father to Keith and Marie. The sound of her cousin's slap told her instantly that Keith had confessed everything. And her cousin, she assumed, could not take it well."You secretly helped my company, I tried to understand it, although I still don't like your ways," Marie's eyes glazed over. "But you even went as far as killing all of my extended family, leaving only

Hearing Aura's exclamation gave him the signal to get out of this place immediately. The atmosphere in Hermann's living room gets even more chaotic when he told Gina the true facts about the husband she's been married to all this time. Now, Gina and Freddy were fighting again, making a scene, which made everyone around them were trying hard to break up the two people.Taking advantage of the chaos created there, Keith used the opportunity to put his revolver into his waistband, then pulled the hands of his father-in-law, as well as Uncle Charles, to leave this place immediately. "What's wrong?" Uncle Charles looked confused while running, but still complied with Keith's request to leave the Hermann mansion. "Why are we leaving-""Save your questions for later!" exclaimed Keith. He whistled loudly once he reached the gate. It did not take him long to find a saloon car appearing in front of them. The car door opened automatically."After you."Alfred without hesitation got into the ca

James Hermann was the first to move from his spot. The old man's jaw hardened, furious with anger."What a sassy mouth you have, young man!" James Hermann's hand grabbed Keith by the collar, but Keith did not lose his composure in the slightest. "On what basis are your false accusations?!""Grandpa! Let go of him!" Marie exclaimed in a panic once she realised what James Hermann was doing to Keith."Don't try to stop me, you unworthy grandchild!" James hissed, his gaze still fixed on Keith. "My business is with this moron! Answer my question!""I get this, Marie. Rest assured," Keith signalled to Marie to remain calm, and Marie reluctantly complied. "I have evidence to back up my statement just now. But first, let go of your grip. Do you think I can continue my speech in this position?"James seemed to consider Keith's words because the old man finally complied with Keith and released his grip, sitting back in his chair. Keith reached for his smartphone, calling Alan."Alan, bring Mr T

All the way to her grandfather's house, Marie felt restless. The fire incident with her personal assistant made her anxious. Derek told her that it might be the work of her uncle who wanted to spread terror in Rose City, but she wasn't sure if that was the only reason.What's more, Keith neither cared nor tried to bring up the matter when she tried to broach the subject. Keith just assumed that it was a coincidence—nothing to think about.Now, he was in the living room, along with his father's entire extended family, attending his grandfather's birthday party. His hand shook the stem of the wine glass filled with red wine served with an uncertain feeling. He did not see Cecilia anywhere at all.Was Cecilia not coming? Or perhaps, her cousin was late for something?She took out her smartphone and sent a short message to Cecilia before cramming it back into her handbag."Your face is so tense. Is it because you're still thinking about your company going bankrupt?"Gina Hermann, her cous

"Welcome back, Mrs. Clark."Rosemarie answered her household manager's greeting with a faint murmur, taking off her high heels and slipping into house slippers. Fatigue enveloped her after almost a day of staring at the computer screen without stopping and also solving business problems with new investors.“Yes…”"I wanted to inform you that an invitation letter was sent for you today.""Invitation letter? From whom?"“From your grandfather, I think…”Marie suddenly felt uneasy. His tiredness vanished in an instant, and he went straight to his household manager, and the old woman handed him an envelope containing the invitation letter that the woman meant.As soon as she learned the contents of the letter, her blood boiled, filled with the anger that was so attached. The letter was an official invitation from her paternal grandfather,To Mrs. Rosemarie Clark.You are invited to attend James Hermann's 64th birthday. The event will be held tomorrow, at 16:00.

Keith tapped his fingers on the table after taking a sip of the mineral water that one of the servers had just served him. His eyes glanced out the window of the restaurant, waiting for the arrival of someone.Currently, he was in the restaurant built by his grandfather at the Hotel Pacifica as a gift for his marriage to Marie.He chose this restaurant for a simple reason: it was his, and it was filled with people he could trust. So he did not need to look for hidden places or need privacy to talk about anything confidential.“Can you imagine? There were three fire incidents in a row! Not to mention the presence of journalists who several times tried to cover the news by claiming to be the family of the fire victims! I don't know if they've lost empathy or what, but this whole thing is definitely weird to me!”Keith thought back to his wife's words once he managed to take care of this suspicious person. Marie was quite surprised to find Derek Skylar coming with him, but his wife's att
