2021-05-20 23:49:52The man asked the burly man that escorted Keith before, to leave him and the man in a fairly large and spacious room. The man then invited him to sit down, while the man himself still sat on his chair, rested his hands on his desk and forming a pyramid. The man's eyes remained fixed on him as if the man was observing him like a jewel to make her stifled. Only the clock in the wall near the windows at the right side of the man's desk ticking, with the clean sound of the air conditioner doing its great job of cooling the room, while at the outside of the room he was right now, he could still hear Alan arguing with Skylar's men.
Ah, it was happening again. Looked like his hot-blooded best friend was making a scene again. He could only hope that his friend would still remember his warning before entering the building properly, so as not to cause trouble for both parties."Frankly, I still can't believe the news of your marriage to that woman named Clark," the man saiRelated chapters

Keith was surprised when the man, who also took a deep breath like him while he was looking at the man, in amazement.“Damn it! It must be Ivan again! That jerk ... always does nothing but creating troubles!" the man grunted and cursed whoever it was who had the name Ivan before looking back at him. "I'm really sorry for making a stupid scene like this and make you feel uncomfortable. Ivan is always like that, so irritable. Usually, he is the one who always replaces me doing work in the field because I'm busy taking care of my company."His position, oddly enough, was the same as him. Perhaps, the rumours he had heard were not really about Derek, but Ivan—if he dared to believe that man's word."You can take what I said earlier and rely on me whenever you want me. I'm willing to help you any time," said the man as he walked toward the door of the room, opened the door to the room and invited him to go out ahead of the man while the man walked after hi

Marie watched the share price of her company move in an increasingly sinister direction on her computer screen. She kept tapping the pen she had been holding for two hours to calm herself down, which had become a habit whenever she felt anxious. In the past, when she was a child and always got worried easily, she grew a bad habit of biting her nails, making her mother angry. Her mother thought it was a bad habit that would damage her nails and not good for a woman to built that bad habit as her mother was a traditional woman who thought that woman should act just like society always told her. So her mother taught her to transfer the bad habit to another place, tapping things, just like the pen she was holding right now.Still not seeing anything good from her computer screen, she took a deep sigh, stopped tapping her pen and move her attention to the piles of documents on her des

Keith let out a lethargic sigh when he saw the message he had sent half an hour ago had not yet been answered by his wife. There was only a sign that his chat had been read by the woman, and that was all. Yet, he had already taken the time to hurry back to the cafe, hoping that he could see his wife, who might be already waiting for him and spend her lunchtime at his cafe like she did yesterday, before returning to her office.He already spent his time to came up with a lot of reason if Marie asked him the reason why she did not find him or maybe making her waiting for a long time. And now, his effort was in vain as Marie did not show her face at his cafe.Would they soon return to a time when that woman was busy thinking about herself and ignoring him like the beginning of their marriage?No, no. Marie must have had other reasons for not being able to reply to his text. Should he pick up Marie after his shift ended?It might be a great

Keith got out of the cab, which had now disappeared from his path, dropping it off in the parking lot of the Clark Corp. building—his wife's company—which he had not had a chance to visit since their wedding. For a moment, he spent his time staring at the majestic building. He tightened the oversized white jacket with the accent straps around his shoulders and arms, which was quite successful in dispelling the cold air around him, remembering that the season was now entering autumn, then entering the building. A black-and-white short-collared sweater with upside-down small black triangles patterns, black semi-formal trousers and ankle boots made of vegan leather made his appearance look much younger than his actual age. So many times he found people there looking at him in astonishment. Some even greeted him in a friendly contrived voice, asking the reason for his presence in the building. Many of them thought he was visiting the building to meet his parents. He only rep

He snapped out of his mind when he heard Marie's voice calling out to him, running quickly over to him in his high heels (which always amazed him how all the women did without falling). The woman's bright smile behind her tired face made him feel even more guilty."Gosh! I'm sorry to make you come here," the woman immediately hugged him tightly, then kissed him on the cheek as if they had not seen him in a long time. "My iPhone's battery is dead, so I can't reply to your text earlier. I was just about to go to your cafe when Felicia announced your arrival. Did you wait long?"For now, it was better to pretend he did not know the matter, afraid of hurting Marie's high self-esteem. "No. I just came.""Oh, that is good. I th

The Saturday he had not been waiting for had finally arrived.At his family home, which the last time he had visited his parent was two months after his marriage to Marie, he found his house much busier when they entered the house. Then they greeted by both of his parents, who immediately hugged them full of excessive enthusiasm, especially from his mother."My son doesn't make any trouble for you, Marie?" his mother suddenly coming up with that question while throwing a sharp gaze that always succeeded in making him unable to move when he tried to refute his mother's question."No. Absolutely not, Ma," Marie laughed softly in response to his mother's question. Instead, he found Marie successfully adapting to his family very quickly, seeing how Marie addressed his parents with 'Mama' and 'Papa' without hesitation, while he himself still had trouble addressing his father-in-law as 'Dad'. But considering Marie's family background

Keith returned to mingling into the crowd of people parties, still finding that Marie was strangely able to keep up with the conversation his parents always managed to bore him, but not with Marie. His eyes returned to their task of searching for Caleb's whereabouts near the glass door connected to the back garden, which was also busy and crowded. No need to wait too long for him to find the whereabouts of his younger brother, who apparently brought his friends to the house — including Thomas.As soon as he called out his younger brother's name, his younger brother immediately distracted himself from his friends and jumped into his arms as soon as he spread his arms, welcoming his little brother warmly."I really miss you, Keith!""I remember that the last time we spoke was last week over a video call, Caleb. How exaggerated are you…," he said, rubbing the top of his younger brother's head, only realizing that compared to the last time they met, his

Aura closed the book she had just finished reading entitled Looking For Dragon's Bone, then smiled a little. Although the novel was not exactly her favourite genre (she preferred darker stories like Stephen King), she had to admit that she really enjoyed the story. The story was about a female commander-in-chief at the palace, who was looking for a dragon bone to give to the king. The dragon bone was used to cure ailments the illness that the king had suffered for a long time. The protagonist of the story had only three months to find the Dragon's bone due to the king's increasingly critical condition of health to live. While sticking to her mission, she tried to find the dragon's hiding place. On the way, she met a beautiful woman who caught her eye while wearing a pink hanfu that matched well her skin tone.

[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

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. Wear formal clothes.How c

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
