Chapter 5

A sentence that was a devastating blow to Xander, a cold man who had never even thought about having children with any woman before. That's why Xander never forgets to play with all the ladies of the night who have been his bedfellows. Except for one girl.

Yes, a girl he had been with about five years ago at a nightclub he frequented.

A damn bitch who ruined Xander's peaceful life for the past five years.

Xander's jaw hardened, both of his fists heating up. Maybe, if only it wasn't this

public place, Xander wanted to pull the hair of the woman who was now sprawled beneath his feet to tell him what had given her the courage to say something so private in front of so many people.

In fact, several emergency room nurses immediately whispered to their neighbors.

Xander knew his position was now cornered, especially as the doctor treating Alexis approached them.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. help us help this child,"

The doctor's long sentence became an echo that continued to echo in Xander's head.

And when the man's head turned back, specifically to the gurney where Alexis' unconscious body lay, Xander seemed to remember the cruelty of his biological mother not acknowledging his existence all this time. So, should he be cruel to Alexis now?

Although, Xander will not simply believe what the woman said that Alexis is his biological child before there was evidence of a DNA test from the hospital.

However, Xander knows that he still has a human conscience. There was no way he could ignore this innocent child dying like that.

"My blood type is AB, Doc. Do everything, save the child," he said quietly.

Several nurses acted quickly and immediately ordered Xander to donate blood.

And lo and behold, when Xander's figure disappeared behind the emergency room door with some nurses, Mia was still staring at Xander's back.

In his heart he continued to speak with tears in his eyes.

Thank you Lord...

Thanks...

Thank you

Thanks...

Xander

Six years ago...

When he learns that Amanda is not the virgin who slept with him that night, Xander immediately sends Harvey to find out who the woman dared to play with him.

Mami Grace herself said that that night Amanda did not enter Xander's room because Amanda suddenly had her period.

Mami Grace begs Chris to tell Xander about it but Chris says that Xander is with another girl in his room when Chris wants to tell Xander about Amanda.

Feeling that he doesn't want to disturb the big boss's hot work, Chris chooses to leave. Chris never thought that what happened that night would have long lasting consequences. Mami Grace was not the only target of Xander's anger, she was also affected.

At that time, Chris provided information about the woman he saw Xander raping that night, although it was not helpful since Chris's position at the time was limited to standing in the bedroom door and only behind the a woman is seen.

"Long hair, white skin, smooth. Small body, that's the only Boss I've seen before," said Chris according to what he knew.

Even if Harvey had checked the CCTV cameras installed in the Club that night, they still weren't enough to help the investigation. Meanwhile, Xander himself can't quite remember the woman's true face because he's under the influence of alcohol, aka drunk.

All Xander could remember of those times was the sound of the woman's moans and groans that his ears caught.

The woman's voice was soft and trembling.

His moans continued to echo in my ears when he said his name. Destroying the peace of his life.

For the first time in Xander Martin's life, whose hobby was changing sleeping partners, Xander kept thinking about the figure of the woman he was with that night.

Until finally, a woman named Aliana came up to him and admitted that she was the one that Xander slept with that night.

"I'm that girl. I took Amanda's place last night Jyon and entered the room you rented at Club Mami Grace. I'm Aliana, one of the waitresses working at Club Mami Grace. I've been watching you for a while Xander... Ariana said.

"What is your motive?" Xander asked, his voice sounding scary.

"Money," Ariana answered.

Xander forced a smile. He even expected it.

"I came here to collect money for my services that night. You haven't paid me yet!" Ariana said again very bravely.

Xander laughed.

A laugh that seemed amusing.

"How much do you want?" he asked after his laughter subsided.

"Fifty million," answered Ariana.

"Harvey, prepare what he wants," Xander ordered his assistant.

Harvey looked confused, "But Boss?"

"Just obey my orders,"

That same day, Ariana came home with fifty million. He didn't really think that Xander was actually not as scary as other people thought.

The plan is for Ariana to give this money to Mia as compensation for Mia's life being ruined by Xander's actions.

At the time, Mia was pregnant with Xander's child.

He could not continue his studies.

Mia was kicked out of her house after her parents found out she was pregnant.

Her parents even said that they don't want to accept Mia as a child because it will embarrass her.

Mia was depressed and Ariana almost dropped her quick hold.

Aliana even gave Mia the final solution to tell Xander everything, unfortunately Mia didn't want to.

Mia was too scared to face Xander.

Mia's suffering continued because while she was pregnant, Mia's health condition continued to decline.

Ariana was taking care of Mia at that time.

Until Mia gives birth to her child...Now, Mia needs a lot of money to pay the costs of the birth as well as the treatment for her baby, who suffers from severe health problems and needs to be in intensive care in hospital for several months.

That's why Ariana was forced to take a shortcut by claiming that she was the woman Xander slept with that night.

Ariana was stunned.

He really couldn't bear to see Mia suffer

That day the doctor allowed Alexis to go home because her condition had improved.

After all of Alexis' hospital bills were paid Mia finally had her baby in a house that Ariana rented for Mia.

Ariana deliberately didn't tell her about the money because if Mia found out her friend would definitely be angry and wouldn't accept the money. So Ariana was forced to lie

"Here's the rest of the money, you're holding it to meet your needs with Alexis. I'm leaving for a while, I'll be back later," Ariana said that night.

"Al, you've helped me so much," Mia said to her friend. No, Ariana is not just Mia's friend, but she is a angel.

Ariana smiled sweetly. He hugged Mia. "I already consider you my family, Mia. With you, I feel like I have a family," said Ariana who until now has been living alone. In fact, he did not know who and where his biological parents were all this time.

Since childhood, Ariana lived in the care of an elderly grandmother named Rubiah who was Mia's neighbor in her hometown. Rubi's grandmother said she found Aliana, who was still a baby at the time, in the garden behind her house.

Rubi's grandmother died when Ariana graduated from junior high school.

And since then, Ariana lived alone. He still had to work to support himself.

Mia is Ariana's only friend,

When they were little, Mia helped him a lot with money and food.

Maybe without Mia, Ariana isn't sure if she would have lived this far?

"Before, you often helped me. Now we are equal," Ariana said after breaking away from the hug.

"Thanks, Al..."

Ariana smiled. "I'll go first, just rest. When I come back, I'll buy you food," he said again.

Mia nodded and immediately put her little baby to sleep in her room not knowing that that night was the last time she would see Ariana.

Ariana never came back.

Because after Ariana left the flat, some police came and arrested her.

The police received a report from someone that Ariana had committed a crime under the pretext of fraud and extortion.

He took fifty million from the people he blackmailed.

And that person was Xander.

"The police have arrested the girls. "The police have arrested the girl named Ariana, Boss," Harvey said to Xander about that time after receiving the latest report from the police.

Xander smiled mischievously.

"Enjoy the result of your bravery, Sweet Miss. Rotten in jail!" Xander growled with tension in his clenched jaw.
