"Adam," a voice came again, "speak politely to your Mother."
Jonathan stood not far from the three of them. The man whose face was covered in wounds, even the bruises from Adam's hard fist, looked like he was still new.Adam sighed, "you guys look like a very harmonious family now," said the man with a faint smile."It's better to keep your mouth shut then take this woman away now," Adam said, glaring at Jonathan fiercely."Adam!" Lucas said in a rising voice, "if you come with the intention of asking for help, keep your attitude towards Clara, she is still your biological mother," Lucas continued with emphasis.Adam was of course speechless hearing that, he is a man who can't hold back his own emotions. Being in this damn family sickened him, but what Lucas said was true, he had come to ask for help."If Clara wants to listen, she can stay here, it's up to you to say what you want or not," Lucas said finally. Clara nodded quickl"Did you call just to ask that?" asked the man then.Elina looked grimaced to herself, why would she ask something like that."No, Jessy seemed to scare me, she said you weren't going home," Elina said timidly, with her head down as if Adam could see her now.Elina could hear Adam's breath from the cellphone that was now attached to her ear, the woman sucked her own lips."What did Jessy say?" asked Adam from the other end."He said if you don't come back today, it means you're dead Dam, then I and Ethan have to leave here, I think when I think about it I'm really stupid to believe in him," Elina explained."Cook me anything, we'll talk later," said Adam after hearing his wife's explanation."Okay, be careful," Elina said as she ended the phone call."AHHHHHHH!" The woman took a deep breath and exhaled loudly."Jessy idiot!" He growled, getting out of bed.It felt as if Elina's strength had ret
After they finished their lunch, Elina and Jessy immediately walked to the kitchen, where Zara had taken out all the raw ingredients to make the dessert, the three women then started working on the ingredients. The three of them agreed to make some beautiful macaron jars that had different flavors for each color. Also some cups of chocolate cake and fruit pudding.They were busy putting the pans filled with macaron dough back and forth into the oven, while Zara was busy eating the macarons that were overcooked so that they turned a little yellow.Elina, who was giving chocolate and peanut butter filling to her macaron, didn't realize that Alby was now standing not far from the women who looked busy."What are you cooking?" asked the boy, glancing a little deeper into the kitchen."Eh?" Elina finally turned her head when she heard the boy's baritone voice."You're home already? Why hurry By?" asked Elina, occasionally glancing at the boy w
"Just explain Dam! Why?" Elina cut in quickly, the woman was getting angry with Adam, why did this man always do whatever he wanted."I told you I don't want to go there anymore! Papa told me to leave you Dam! Is it healthy for you to tell me to go back there? What if Ethan and I can't go back with you again?" Elina sneered passionately, the woman seemed to take a rough breath."I'll pick you back later," said Adam, "I promise," he continued after that."Why? You have to answer first why I have to go there? There's no other place?" Elina snapped at Adam again, with a big voice, Ethan even seemed to flinch a little, the baby's big eyes seemed to see Adam and Elina in turn, as if he understood his parents were fighting."I've already told you, marrying me isn't as easy as you think Elina, I have to keep hiding you, there are lots of bad people out there trying to hurt you, I'm trying to protect you from them, your papa's house is the only safest pla
"Are you all right?" he asked quietly.Elina took a deep breath, "I'm lazy to see you," the woman replied, snorting."Sorry, this is the only way to keep you and Ethan safe," Adam replied."When are you taking us home Dam?" Elina asked, the woman's gaze returned to Adam closely.Adam shook his head, "I don't know yet, but I'll pick you up as soon as possible, you'll be fine there." Adam turned his attention from the street, the man's dark eyes looked at Elina gently."If the problem is solved later, I hope we can still meet," continued the man with a smile, something that Adam rarely does but continues to show Elina."You promised you'd be okay," Elina's face turned gloomy, "why did you say that? We'll definitely meet again Dam," Elina said loudly."I'll persuade papa to accept you, okay?" Elina held Adam's big finger.Adam only smiled in response to Elina's words, he knew that he was actually very inappropriate
Flashback on.After hearing the pleasant offer from his father, Adam Delio, who at that time was still too young and naive, looked very excited. Of course, he will be rewarded by a company. For a boy of Adam's age, being the owner of a company is the dream of all his friends.The man was too naive, to the extent that he didn't think twice about the offer, he thought his heart was closed, or even he didn't have any feelings for someone anymore, after seeing the destruction of his father and mother, Adam felt disgusted with love.Love for him is just a nonsense forming a fetus that they can later make as slaves when stressed, like Adam at this time.Adam was well aware, he was only a doll in the eyes of Brian, his own father, the old man certainly didn't think his three sons existed. He only gave money, education, and a terrible offer. Mark, Adam or even Alby, never got such a thing as affection.But it turns out that Adam was wrong when he
Zean glanced at Adam, conveyed the idea with a distinctive smile printed on his lips, as if there was a light shining above the man's head at the moment.Adam was silent, not long after the man hit Zean's annoying face with his hard fist, "your idea disgusts me," Adam said then started the car engine."You have access to the house now, remember? I own the apartment, just say there's going to be a little renovation and then I can make a safe hatch to help you make that dirty dream come true." Zean smiled again, now raising and lowering his eyebrows, as if Adam's punch had no deterrent effect on the man."Your ideas are good too." Adam glanced at Zean, then returned to focus on the road in front of him.The two men then planned other dirty and heinous things, with the note that Zean would get a 20% stake in Adam's company in the future if this idea went well.Adam didn't think about Elina at all, he only thought about himself, his satisfact
The room that looked chaotic left it deserted, Caca no longer made a sound, but the child's tears kept flowing, wetting the entire surface of his face. Adam glanced at his father with an incomprehensible look, "why?" asked Adam hanging."Why is dad always obsessed with taking revenge on Lucas, isn't it dad's own fault if mom leaves us?" Adam continued with the jugular veins starting to bulge."This child didn't do anything wrong, and Elina too, can't they just live as usual? Father is too selfish," the man scolded his own father. Someone across from them seemed to exhale while smiling faintly after listening to the debate, "You say as if you were never involved with Adam, even though you are the main character." Mark walked over to his father and younger brother.The tall man in casual clothes glared at him with disapproval, Mark looked at Adam lightly, "You should be grateful, your family didn't get destroyed thanks to me," he said, Mark's index finger pu
"Adam! You promised me... Open your eyes Dam!" Elina beat Adam's face repeatedly. The woman was crying hysterically, tears and blood mixed on Elina's face, they were both now full of blood stains. Elina was then forcibly pulled away from Adam, the woman was pulled by Raja.The man who was initially waiting for Adam in front of the house, but immediately entered the house when he felt something was wrong because suddenly Elina and Lucas came to Brian's house. Raja certainly knew, the two men were arch enemies."Madam, please stay away, sir I will take you to the hospital immediately." Raja immediately approached Adam, trying to lift the man."Stop, no need, leave him here," Mark said, telling Raja to stop his activities."MARK!" Elina screamed loudly, the woman approached Mark with big steps.Plak!Elina slapped Mark's face hard, the woman then hit Mark's chest turning weak with heavy breathing and tears that never stopped.
Here Elina was now, staring at the worn out things in the small rented house in a hidden place in the corner of the city, this small house was the only thing that Elina could afford for at least a year to come. Mama Elina had died as a result of her illness, they didn't have enough money to pay for treatment. Even after her mother died, Elina never saw her father coming to visit her, no, Elina actually didn't expect the man to return, but a small part of her heart seemed to always be waiting for her father's return. Elina didn't spend much time with her father before, she didn't have many fragments of memory about Lucas, her father. However, mom always tells dad's kindness. Like it or not, Elina couldn't hate her father at all.But a few days ago, Elina decided to sell the house left by her father, there was no other way. Besides, the house is too big for Elina to live in and again, the cost of electricity for the house is not small. After selling the house left by her parents, Elina
The day had finally arrived, the day Lucas had been waiting for the most. He had prepared everything he needed long ago. Today, Clara gave birth to her third son together with Brian, the woman's condition still did not allow her to leave the hospital immediately, the two of them finally waited for the right time in the next few days, after all, Brian was always beside Clara all the time.Lucas was preparing some files that he couldn't leave behind, the man looked around his bedroom with Tiana. Lucas really couldn't forget a lot of memories, but Lucas' love for Tiana wasn't so great that he was able to erase Clara from the mas's life. And so, here Lucas ended up, packing some things he couldn't leave in this house, like some treasures in his own name.To be honest, Tiana didn't have a single thing, that woman really only lived with Lucas, long before today, even when she was child and lived with her mother who was a maid at Lucas' house. But, Lucas certainly wouldn't have the heart to
Several weeks had passed, Lucas still couldn't get his mind off Clara, from the woman's face, from the way she smiled, from the way she cried when she met Lucas again. Lucas saw Clara's first reaction at that moment and immediately concluded that Clara might still love Lucas too. The two of them are really locked up with other people now, they both even have children from other people, Clara is even pregnant with her third child with Brian, the man Clara was betrothed to first. Lucas felt almost crazy, how could he forget Clara again, for years he had tried to forget her by creating a fortress in his heart, but only by looking back at Clara for a few minutes, Lucas' defense collapsed instantly, everything was in vain.Lucas had to meet Clara again, he had to hear for himself how Clara felt about him now. Whether that woman had lived well so far, or the other way around because to be honest, Lucas felt like his life was completely ruined after Clara left. Lucas wouldn't be able to live
Today, Tiana had the courage to ask if there was something that had been bothering her husband for a while. Lucas looked different than usual, the man turned hot-tempered, the slightest mistake that Tiana made could bring out Lucas' great anger.Tiana had known Lucas for a long time until they became husband and wife like now, this was the first time Tiana felt as if she didn't know her husband personally anymore.It's possible, Lucas got into trouble at work so that every day the man's feelings became abysmal and he poured out anger on Tiana, if that was true, at least Tiana didn't need to feel worried or hurt if Lucas got angry later, he could understand."Pa, you have problems at work? You can tell me anything." Tiana hugged Lucas' body from behind. The two of them were trying to fall asleep. The curfew was usually used by the couple to share brief stories about the day's events."Nothing, take it easy." Lucas answered."Hmm, if there's anything you want to talk about, go ahead." T
[Lucas, Brian, Tiana, Clara]As if it was fate they met again like this. The man's eyes were completely unable to look away from a woman who had stolen his attention from the start when the woman entered the shop which was filled with jewelry.Lucas, the man who was holding his only daughter at that time, couldn't hide his pleasure at all when he saw the woman on the other end.Every inch of her body, Lucas missed her.As if the world was toying with Lucas at that time, he had to be in the same room with his wife as well as the woman he had loved, ah or is Lucas still in love with him to this day.Lucas never lies, he always looks at his wife as Clara. He doesn't know, he feels his whole life is only centered on that woman. Clara is the only reason that man is still alive today. Clara is Lucas's first and last love.Clara seemed still oblivious to Lucas' presence around her at that time. Lucas returns to remember the past of the two of them. Clara really likes accessories, she is a la
In the evening, guests consisting of company leaders, as well as Adam's business partners began to arrive, expensive cars parked in the wide yard of the house. The guests, most of whom were wealthy people, enjoyed a variety of elegantly presented dishes.Ethan looked at the pile of birthday presents with eyes shining with hope, he already looked impatient to open those beautiful boxes."Bang Ethan! Naura will give you one prize later." Naura said while running a little, the child had just arrived with his mother and father who were walking side by side behind.Naura's eyes also lit up as she stared at the pile of presents."You can't Naura, brother Ethan is being stingy." Rafel rolled his eyes in annoyance, because he had asked Ethan for the same thing earlier, but his older brother pinched his chubby cheeks until they turned red.Adam chuckled when he heard the story of his youngest son, the child tried to speak formally but with a serie
"So, will you marry me again?" he repeated.The woman was pensive for a moment, but after that Elina nodded quickly, "yes Adam, I want," she replied, stroking the top of Adam's head gently.The woman's smile widened. Adam is so cute tonight. Elina, who is pregnant, is also a woman, but it is Adam who wants such a perfect marriage."Thank you Elina," said the man, starting to smile."This time I will show you to the world. That Elina is mine."Elina smiled seeing Adam's sparkling eyes, her thin hand moved to stroke the man's cheek."I love you," Adam muttered. Making the smile on Elina's face even brighter."I love you too," said Elina.Adam narrowed his eyes when he heard Elina's answer. The woman seemed to laugh, "yes, I love Adam too," the woman replied earnestly.Hearing that Adam smiled, correcting the location of Elina's hair that was flying in the night wind.If only, time brought them to
Elsewhere, Adam and Alby have just arrived at Adam's house. Where Alby then walked quickly, entered the house and immediately walked to his own room. The kid didn't even glance at anyone who was there. Elina pursed her lips when she saw Alby, she understood the boy's feelings, she really understood that Alby needed a break. Calming his mind from all fatigue.Adam glanced briefly at his wife, then the man's strong hands rubbed Elina's narrow back, "I'll go to the room first," he said goodbye before leaving Elina and walked away looking a little tired.Elina looked at the few people there, who looked back at her."I don't think there's anyone having dinner tonight," said the woman, sighing slightly, but she smiled."Just keep it in the refrigerator, Zar," he continued.The woman turned, about to join Adam in the room. But his steps suddenly stopped when he accidentally remembered something. Alby hasn't eaten anything since this afternoon.
Adam stared at his phone with a cold gaze, then let out a short breath.From: MarkFather passed away, came to the funeral this afternoon.Elina stared at the contrasting atmosphere on Adam's face after staring at his cellphone for a while, making Elina also purse her lips.Drag!A loud crash sounded, making Elina flinch in surprise then focused her attention on the place that made the loud banging sound.Alby had just come out of his room, accidentally banging on the door.The boy's face looked slightly red and full of surprise, making Elina stand up immediately when she saw the boy's face, afraid that Alby might have an allergy or some other problem."Why?" Elina asked approaching the child.While Alby walked towards the dining table to find Adam."Dad really died sis?" he asked in a low, muffled voice.Elina suddenly stopped, looking alternately at Alby and Adam. The woman's breath felt
