2022-02-13 23:58:28It felt as if her life had just been ripped out.
That was all that crossed her mind as soon as she got out of the car and followed Keith, who was now rushing into the building with a modern industrialist exterior after taking off his coat and handing it to one of the building attendants who offered to hang his coat on the coat hanger, showing a formal suit worn by Keith.
The cute-looking man did not say anything to her at all––nor even tried to stop and give her a chance to understand the situation they were encountering earlier––as the man continued to walk with hasty steps so that there was nothing she could do but follow him by taking off her coat (not in the heart giving the building staff quick access to her beloved precious little baby) while threw a polite smile at the building staff who responded with a flat face. The bui

No time for mourning, Keith muttered to himself as his footsteps brought him closer to the funeral parlour. Several representatives of the deceased's family were in the front seat with different reactions. He found the existence of several people who tried to appear calm in front of everyone, acting tough as if ready to accept the future consequences of having family members join the mafia group while looking at the coffin in front of the room. Meanwhile, his eyes found that most of the family members of the members who died as a result of Silvano's attack some time ago screamed hysterically to create a mass commotion, and as a result, all those who attended the mourning ceremony were now busy trying to calm the hearts of the family members of the deceased members. Just seeing the sight from the outside was enough to give him a new reason to avenge Silvano's actions. It seemed like it was t

Both he and Katherine were now silent after finding the bitter fact Katherine found behind Hermann’s secret tragedy in the past. He knew, sooner or later, there would be a high risk of possibility coming to Marie. Not only Marie would be in danger, but also his father-in-law. Himself. And also, this fact alone would endanger his parents. Neither of the two of them tried to break the silence they created, allowing the frenzy of Aldebrando's group of people walking across the corridor and taking their time to greet him. He only replied with a faint smile, while his mind was still filled with the information that Katherine had just told him at the moment. If all the information that Katherine, Alan, and Aura had gathered was correct, combining all of that information with the ideas currently running through his mind like a puzzle upon reading the situation that had been happening for a while now, it all came to the same point. All the information p

He saw the reluctance on Cecilia's face as soon as she heard the question he asked her just now. He did not know, nor was he sure to interpret the woman’s reaction as a form of her loyalty to her extended family, but there was no harm in pushing his luck to get the answer he might be needed from Cecilia in the future. It was the woman herself who offered to help him, so the question he had just asked should not be a difficult question for her to answer. That was what he initially thought. But seeing for himself how Cecilia reacted, who was still motionless in her place after listening to his question just now, he was not sure whether he should trust her completely or not anymore. As Katherine said before his subordinate left him to continue her investigation to dig more for the information and continue to execute the plan as he requested. Overwhelmed by his anger, on the grounds that he also could not stand Cecilia who was still silent, forced him to speak again. "Fo

Three hours later, he was in his room with his maternal grandfather sitting on one of the sofa chairs in his room with his hands resting on his maternal grandfather's favourite stick. He had asked Victor to take Cecilia to another room so as not to interfere with her meeting with her maternal grandfather who was now getting up from his chair with a bright smile etched on the old man's face. “I see there are so many things going on here when I leave my group to you for a while. I can see that." He did not say anything, or to be exact, he could not say anything to comment on what his maternal grandfather said to him. He just kept quiet as he closed the office door, locked the door after making sure no one would interrupt their conversation. “Kate has told me everything,” his maternal grandfather continued as he motioned for him to sit with him, to which he responded with a hesitant nod as his mind began to worry about his maternal grandfather's reaction after k

“Back to our business again. I have heard most of the situation here from Kate,” his maternal grandfather spoke to him with his eyes still fixed on the screen of the smartphone he had lent to his maternal grandfather. "That is the reason why I asked you if there is anything I can help you with?" “How many times do I have to tell you, Nonno [Grandpa]? I can handle this situation. Rest assured. Everything is under control,” he said, trying to make his voice sound reassuring to his maternal grandfather's ears. Simply on the grounds that he did not want his maternal grandfather to be disappointed with his failure. Besides, what had Kate told his maternal grandfather? "Do you have no faith in your grandson's ability, Nonno?" He could feel his anxiety was mixed with guilty feel filled inside him, even more as he said that, worried that his maternal grandfather would find out that his life and Marie's life (with the possibility that the lives of both his parents and Caleb's

Keith could feel like everything around him at the moment seemed to stop moving from their movements, leaving him alone to be the one left in the waiting room. It was completely quiet, as the silence enveloped him. He even questioned his whereabouts where he was, who was looking at his trembling hands, holding each other. All for the reason that he could not hide the anxiety which was mixed with fear after he saw Alan arrive at the headquarters in such bad shape just now. Damn it … Damn it, damn it, damn it! Those fucking bastards! The word kept echoing in his mind, cursing the situation that had become increasingly chaotic. "Kei

Patricia took a sip of the red velvet drink that Aura had just made for her fifteen minutes ago, distracting her attention from the screen of her fourteen-inch Chromebook which she had now closed after she spent almost four full hours staring at her laptop screen while stretching her stiff muscles. Well, she should better take her time to rest. Or in other words, it was another way for her to try to escape from the deadline which was only a week away. Long story short, she was using her time right now to escape from reality. The target word count she set for her work today was two thousand five hundred words, but the fact which was displayed in the upper right corner of her PureWriter app only showed her that she only managed to write one thousand two hundred words so far. The number was still quite far from the target, she had to admit, but her brain was already stuck, so it was difficult to come up with new ideas that she could incorporate into her story. It seemed

For all day long, her mind could not move from the last message Keith sent to her. [In half an hour, I think] Reading the short reply to Keith's message provoked a butterfly in her stomach. She could sense that something was wrong with Keith, but what was that? Her brain was struggling to find any evidence of her suspicions about Keith's strange behaviour when her husband was asking her for permission to go out with Cecilia four hours ago. Speaking of Cecilia, her cousin's behaviour when Keith asked her permission was also very strange. After all, since when did Cecilia and Keith who rarely see each other suddenly become this close? Especially Cecilia. She remembered exactly that Cecilia was not someone who would just give someone a ride for free for no apparent reason, not into the category of people who want to let other people ride in their cars unless they already know the person. So obviously, giving Keith a ride piqued her sudden curiosity. An e

[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
