Amanda's consciousness slowly began to recover. She gasped with her hands now squeezing hard lollipops belonging to a super handsome man in front of her.

Amanda tried to push against the chest of a man named Darko, who engrossed her lips. She was even sure, if at this time her lips had swollen due to wild kissing blindly but pleasant from the man.

Darko's body was a little distant due to the man's ineptitude received a sudden attack from Amanda. One slap with Amanda's soft palms landed perfectly on Darko's left cheek. A smirk full of ridicule appeared on Amanda's beautiful face.

"A worthy payment for my swollen lips tonight," Amanda cynically.

Darko held his left cheek and rubbed it gently. Chuckled at the words Amanda said to him.

Amanda stepped back and turned away from Darko, who she was sure still frozen in his place. Grateful if the man does not chase her, because she was doing a stupid anarchist act over again. Reckless! Slapping someone else's cheek is a crime. Amanda shuddered at the thought of what would happen if she is reported by him because of the unpleasant action she had just done.

Again and again. Darko chuckled as he sipped the intoxicating clear liquid in his hands. He shakes his head slowly, remembering how the woman courageously did the thing that even he was sure there was no other woman out there who would do the same. Slap him.

That woman successfully left a different impression from the others. Bathing him with wine and now giving him a slap to pay for his hot kisses. Such a challenging woman.

There was no pain Darko felt when the slap from that delicate palm touched his cheek, even if Amanda slapped him over and over, Darko was sure it would not make his handsome level decrease at all. But because of the slap, Darko increasingly wants Amanda to submit to his control.

Yes! He deliberately let the woman feel victorious at the beginning of their introduction at this time. But see how the next, don't call him Darko Dio Rajasa if he can't make Amanda fall to his knees and obey under his control.

Everything will have the time.

Darko leaned back in the chair of the hotel room where he stays. His mission which he thought would only take three days but did not seem to match his predictions. Conquering Amanda was not as fast as he thought. The woman who was stubborn and had sky-high prestige had various ways to compensate his games.

"Send important files via e-mail. I will evaluate it from here, and it looks like Indonesia will be the most impressive and pleasant place for me. So I will take more time here," said Darko to one of his trusted people.

He hung up the telephone and stood proudly, looking at the lights that illuminated every corner of the capital through the window of his hotel room.

"I'll give you one more chance to play, and then I'll turn things around," Darko murmured.

Amanda dissolved on her work. Her sharp cat eyes focused on the various images that now display on the laptop screen. She was a little forgotten by the thing last night. She tried hard to get rid of and forget for a moment to finish all the work deadlines well.

But it seems that everything must be dispersed because her fingers already click on an e-mail sent from her friend who was in London.

I met him at a restaurant in London. I know you really miss him, so I sent the photo to you. He came with his kid and wife. He has been happy with his little family. I hope you will find your happiness too.

Amanda breathe heavily. Her chest was rumbling strongly. Her palm trembled as she moved the mouse cursor. The screen of her laptop now filled with the face of Him, who was the shadow of Amanda's life.

The man Amanda dreams of. He who disappeared for the past two years to avoid Amanda.

Antonio Mariz was Amanda's schoolmate at Senior High School. One of the many handsome men at her school. Antonio is a man who is so kind and friendly. He is also quite familiar with all school residents, including Amanda.

Amanda's feelings couldn’t be turned away from Antonio, even though they were already students at one of the leading universities. The fact that makes Amanda so happy is being able to study in the same university again with Antonio.

Everything feels more beautiful and happy when Amanda’s dad (Min Jun) told about the arranged marriage that Amanda would do with Antonio. Considering that the company of Antonio’s da (Mariz Hilton) almost went bankrupt and the Altakendra company was ready to help them to get back on their feet. As gratitude, Antonio’s dad will match his son, Antonio to Amanda.

Amanda and Antonio going into an engagement period of two years. In those two years, only Amanda played an active role in their relationship.

Amanda always visits Antonio's company and also prepares all her fiance needs.

Antonio from the very beginning didn’t take any problem of an arranged marriage with Amanda. But the man also didn’t show his enthusiasm. Making Amanda often guessing what in his thoughts. Everything feels bland when their engagement relationship feels in place.

Antonio never acted like a fiancee; he even never invited Amanda to do something. Amanda, who is already in love with death, doesn’t pay any attention to the advice from her best friend about Antonio, who has no feelings with her. Amanda always thinks positively if he is the type of man who is insensitive and ignorant.

Until finally, that man, for the first time invited Amanda to dinner at a fancy restaurant. Amanda dressed in such a way, repeatedly grooming her face and appearance in the mirror to make sure she appeared perfect in front of Antonio.

A cheerful and happy smile radiated on Amanda's face along the road to the dinner place. Happiness increasingly surrounded Amanda's feelings when she saw that her fiancee standing waiting for her at a table that had room for four people. There are neatly arranged various foods.

"Thank you for dinner. I really love it," Amanda said with a tear in her eyes that was so moved and happy.

Finally, the long wait for positive thinking on Antonio paid off already tonight. She will brag about all the sweet things Antonio did for her to Nana when they meet later.

An hour spent by Amanda and Antonio telling stories. Amanda was so enthusiastic about telling the contents of her feelings shamelessly to that man. Amanda turned into an aggressive woman when she is around Antonio. How is it not? Antonio is the first man to make her fall in love.

Amanda wants Antonio to be the first man in her life to feel everything related to her, including kissing, touching and sexual intercourse. But, during these two years too, everything seems to be only Amanda's imagination. Antonio always maintains physical contact with her. Painful but Amanda remained in her mind to think positively if Antonio deliberately until they officially became husband and wife.

"I really want a harmonies small family. Wants you to be there when I open and close my eyes every time I wake up and sleep. You're the only man I love," Amanda said, holding Antonio's hand tightly.

Antonio slowly pulled the hand in Amanda's grasp. The smile on Amanda's face faded slightly and full of questions in her head.

"Thank you for making me the only man you love. And thank you for everything you have done for me. Thank you for every second of your time spent thinking about me and taking care of me. Also, thank you for your father's company for helping my father's company. "Antonio says so many thanks makes Amanda frown even more confused.

"I didn't make you the only woman I love. Because basically, I don't have any feelings for you at all. I'm sorry." Antonio's words struck Amanda's chest. "I don’t like an aggressive woman. I don’t like what is in you, all of them. Physical as well as your personality. I have tried to keep my distance and give a break in this relation, but it seems like you don’t understand what I mean," said Antonio.

"Why did you accept our arranged marriage and engagement, if you didn't like me from the start?" Amanda asked in a trembling voice trying hard to hold back her tears.

"Because I didn't want to disappoint our parents from the start. Besides, I wanted to make my company recover first so that I can stand up again alone without the back of your parents' company," Antonio answered.

"You're sly! You're also mean," Amanda hissed.

"Well, I am evil and cunning. You may hate me and curse me. I won’t mind it."

"I love you, Antonio Mariz! Are you not aware of my sincere feelings? How could you break my heart and my feelings just like that? Without you trying to open your heart and try to live it with me first. Which part of my attitude and personality that you don’t like? I will try to change it for your sake, "Amanda said emotionally.

Antonio rubbed his face roughly. "I love another woman. My heart has always belonged to her. I can't open my heart to you anymore. I want our engagement to be canceled," said Antonio honestly.

Weeping tears came out of Amanda. That woman cried hysterically at Antonio's words that hurt her so much. She is too shameful to admit defeat for her feelings.

"No! I don't want our engagement to break. I want you to remain my fiance and be my husband. Don't say any bullshit! You are mine, Antonio! YOU ARE MINE ..." screamed Amanda. "Leave the woman and stay with me. I will do anything for you. I promise! Whatever I will do for you," Amanda said, interrupted in tears.

"It's useless, Amanda. Don't waste your time and energy anymore. I want to be with you. Leave all this. I want to live my life with the woman I loved. You choose your own path. I can't be with you. Accept this situation." said Antonio.

Amanda shakes her head slowly, not believe in the words that came out of the mouth of the man of her dreams. Her love is unrequited. The man in front of her rejected it honestly and openly.

"My dad won't let our engagement end like this." Amanda softly.

"Your dad already knows, and I have accepted all the consequences. I am not a good man for you. Forget me, and I have already impregnated another woman. I will marry her as a form of my responsibility for what I have done," Antonio explained, making Amanda even worse.

That man impregnates her lover and will be married, in order to make Amanda won’t longer build upon him.

"You're kidding, aren't you?" deny Amanda.

"Talking with you is just wasting my time. Forget me and our engagement is done tonight. I go and don't disturb my life anymore." Antonio released his engagement ring and put it on the table, that man chose to leave Amanda alone without the slightest mercy.

Amanda feels angry, upset, sad, hate and all feelings are mixed in her heart and mind at the same time.

After those tragic night accident, Amanda chose to shut herself up for 3 days without stopping crying. Until in the end, her brain thinks clearly and positively, she makes up her mind to change; she will make Antonio again become her own by changing her character and personality.

Amanda's hand moved open the bottom drawer on her desk. She reached into a small box there.

In her hand, there was already a photo of a man who was looking away lying on the bed staring at her. The photo of Antonio that she took two days after their engagement. At that time, Amanda came to visit his apartment to see out the breakfast.

"Is it time for me to let you go? Is there no hope for you to come back to me? Do you really want not to return my love?" Amanda murmured in the photo on her holding.

"It seems like my changes for you is just useless. You really do what you say. You are consistent with your words that you don’t love me but love another woman," Amanda said sadly but no tears fell on her beautiful face.

As Amanda was groping Antonio's photo in her hand, the door of her room opened and inevitably made her look up to see who was impolitely entering her room without knocking.

"I voluntary came to disturb your time." The flat-faced man with no expression said to Amanda without courtesy.

Amanda closed her eyes and regulated her thunderous heartbeat when she looked back at the super handsome man who had just been given a slap by her last night.

The thoughts about Antonio being shattered and simply vanished immadietly and replaced with a man that have no expression, cold, arrogant and pervert in front of her.

"What else will he do to me today?" Amanda thought.
