Author's POV Mr. Alexander was really annoying to Fransisca. He really made her wait with what he had said just now. "Sorry, sir, I forgot... I've only half revised the file you asked for and the others haven't been finished yet," said Fransisca while trying to smile. The man with very sharp eyes looked at her. Fransisca looked down. The reason was, that she had suspected that perhaps Mr. Alexander wouldn't ask for it today. This was all out of her predictions last night. However, even so, Mr. Alexander only responded with a sigh. "Okay, do it quickly!" Said Mr. Alexander immediately shocked Fransisca. Even now Fransisca is looking at Mr. Alexander with an unexpected look. "You're not scolding me?" Fransisca asked, confused. She really couldn't believe what she had heard that day. Then Mr. Alexander immediately looked at Fransisca's face. He took a deep breath to face the woman in front of him. "You want me to scold you?" Mr. Alexander immediately shook his head in retu
Alexander's POV Plaque!! The loud sound of a slap echoed in the room. Veronica now slapped me. Getting a slap from her made me immediately look at Veronica with an unexpected look. My eyes became hot and I immediately looked at her with a sharp gaze. Then I chuckled a little and said, "Are you defending her, Veronica?" Veronica fell silent. The woman just looked at my face. My jaw tightened. Stare at your face for a long time. Then after that, I immediately looked away and said, “Cheap woman! I made you queen, but instead, you made me like this?!” “Look at me, Mr Alexander. Have you forgotten what you did with me? Or you pretend to forget. I know you love that flower girl, right?” her scream echoed throughout the room. Excited! My heart almost wants to pop out. I felt like I wanted to slap her face with a thousand slaps, but I could never do that to her. “You want to know, why did I cheated on you? This is all you're doing?!” she jerked again. “M-me? You're the one doing thi
Alexander's POV "Yes, you're welcome, sir, don't get too down like this. Just let Miss Veronica have an affair. Believe me, she will come back with you," said Fransisca without realizing it. Even though when she said that, her heart felt a lot of pain, her face still looked fine without knowing that she was injured. Full of annoyance I answered, "I won't accept it again, Fransisca. My heart already hurts to see her like this to me." My heart seemed to have darkened. Seeing the lover I had fought for just disappeared. Like someone who only comes when she needs it, she seems worthy of being called a mischievous woman. "Yes, I hope what you say is correct, sir," said Fransisca, which made me immediately glance at her in confusion. Why did she say that to me? "It's certain that what I said is true, Fransisca. There's no way I'm lying!" I said with my eyes looking straight ahead. Full of emptiness like when I saw her cheating right in my eyes. "Okay, I believe it!" Fransisca said w
Fransisca's POV I felt such a very confused feeling. My heart started beating evenly when Mr. Alexander took me to a place. I, who was sitting in a car seat that cost hundreds of millions, made my heart feel happy. Moreover, last night, someone called me and said, "All your mother's debts have been paid off by a man." There's nothing I can describe except the confusion that is sweeping through my heart. Who is that man, that he can pay off my mother who borrowed so much money? I immediately knew who it was when Aunt Mary told me that he was the boss of my company. I was immediately shocked, my whole body suddenly went numb. I don't know how to express it. Between happiness and confusion with Mr. Alexander. I thought he gave it because there was an ulterior motive, but my estimate was very wrong. "Don't be nervous," he said, which made me immediately look at his face with a faint smile. Slowly the car brought by Mr. Alexander has now arrived at a house, but it is like a very magn
Veronica's POV "Miss Veronica...," there was a knock on the door from outside. It surprised me who was sleeping so peacefully. I sighed softly, who dared to wake me up? Then I immediately got up from my room. Walk closer to the door and immediately open it. A woman around 40 years old is now in front of me. She is an assistant of mine who I have always known very well. My eyes glanced cynically at him. She took a deep breath and said, "What do you need for you to wake me up?" The woman seemed to be holding her head back. I didn't want to look at my face, which was looking at her with a very dirty face. “Time to wake up, you've been asleep for too long,” the woman said in a calm tone, although she sensed the displeasure in your voice. I glanced at her with a sharp gaze, but the woman remained calm. “This is an invitation that was sent this morning. Sorry for disturbing your sleep. Besides, it's already late in the day," she added, which made me immediately stop saying anything.
Author's POV Fransisca with her co-worker Mr. Alexander. Now she is entering a very strange club. Fransisca's face was so afraid to set foot because of a very deep trauma. However, when she saw the woman nearby who was just holding her arm, it made her heart feel bad.She had been in the position that Emma had been in. Because of this, Fransisca took the initiative to come to accompany her friend. Staring at Emma's face, whose whole body was covered in cold sweat, made her hold her hand, trying to provide warmth for her. That's all she can do. "It's okay if I'm here," said Fransisca, smiling faintly at her. "Sorry," said Emma, sounding very strange to my ears. "No need, I'm just here to help you. Making sure that everything will be fine," said Fransisca again. Then after that, they both entered the club. The same smell at that time just entered Fransisca's sense of smell. Moreover, the sound in this music club sounded very loud compared to the club I was visiting at that time.
Fransisca POV Walking alone, on a street where there are only dim lights ready to go out. After being verbally abused and even treated like that, I could only remain silent. “I don't know where to go, where to come? Who do you ask for help?” My monologue. Everything I had done was so destroyed and just gone. In deep confusion, I contemplated the life that seemed to be collapsing before me. Everything I thought was happiness turned out to be just a fragile illusion. Life, which I thought would continue peacefully, is now shattered into pieces. I wondered in confusion, what did I do wrong? What has made everything change so drastically? Just because of my desire to help my friend meet someone, this life turned upside down unexpectedly. Guilt and devastation clouded my mind, searching for answers to the questions that continued to swirl in my mind. In a whirl of confusion, I contemplated the dark sky. Unanswered questions continue to haunt me, and I don't know where to go. Life tha
Raymond's POV In the evening it was very tiring. I accidentally passed through a dark alley with no light shining through. The lights here are no longer suitable for use, however, stupidly I didn't go out using the motorbike or car I had. My big feet stepped towards my house which was at the end of this street. It's not far from here, and I came out of there to buy something. Actually, I can get someone to buy it. However, unfortunately, I'm too lazy to ask someone. As a result, I went out by myself to buy all the things I needed. With the cell phone in my hand. I started walking towards a bridge that connected to the apartment I lived in. As I was walking, suddenly I heard a very loud woman screaming. I am surprised. The sound faintly came from my ears. Suddenly the hairs on the back of my neck just stood up. Then, feeling afraid and curious, I started to walk closer. When I approached the bridge, I saw a woman standing on the edge with a blank look. Her hair flowin
Fransisca's POV One year passed. All the sadness has begun to fade. I also take turns staying at my house and my mother-in-law's house. Today Riana graduated. Of course, Raymond, Bobby, and Tissa came to congratulate me as representatives of her family. Bobby is also getting bigger. Likewise with Tissa. After Nadya officially gave Tissa to me, I already had full power of attorney This time I also saw that Riana had become a graduate. This is quite a proud achievement for her and us as her family too. We are proud of Riana because she has also fought well all this time. I also brought a bouquet for her as a congratulation. After the graduation procession was finished, we met Riana. Bobby gave the bouquet of flowers to his aunt. "Thank you, darling," said Riana. "You're welcome, Aunt Riana." Bobby has talked a lot. I am also proud of him because he has learned a lot. He can also be an older brother to Tissa and doesn't seem to want to see Tissa fall. He becomes a bro
Raymond's POV I finally got to see Nichole helpless and then taken to the police station. I also asked the police to arrest Mr. Raul. I also don't know where he is. I hope Mr. Raul has also been arrested. "Wow, great stiffness, sir. If I were you, I wouldn't be able to do it. Moreover, the knife almost stuck in your chest," praised the auditor. "Ah, when we are in trouble we should be prepared for all risks, sir. Don't worry!” Because my business was finished, the auditor went home. I escorted him home and made sure he was safe. I went to the police station and couldn't wait to see Nichole in prison with Mr. Raul. Two people who betrayed me and almost destroyed my company. This time I was in front of the police station. I've also seen Nichole and Mr. Raul who were temporarily imprisoned at the police station before they were questioned. I saw them both. That's how they saw me too. “Hey, let me go!” shouted Mr. Raul. "Don't you know that you will go to prison be
Raymond's POV When Nadya came to the house and said she would help me, I was quite surprised. It turns out Mr. Raul has collaborated with Nadya. It's just that Nadya is no longer like she used to be. She has changed. "Okay then. Thank you for wanting to help me," I answered. "You're welcome. Can I see Tissa?” Nadya replied. "Of course. She's still sleeping at this hour. You can see her in my room. Because at night she always sleeps with me," answered Fransisca. "Can you take me to your room?" Nadya asked again. "Well, of course," answered Fransisca. After meeting Tissa, Nadya then invited me to discuss. As Her said yesterday, I also have to make Mr. Raul and Nichole feel tired because they had tried to stab me in the back. Nadya is quite good at this job. I also felt very helped by this. * The next day Nadya and Mr. Raul will meet to carry out further cooperation. I was asked to come along so I could keep an eye on him. Fransisca is also no longer jealous of
Fransisca's POV I'm quite worried about Raymond's condition as he continues to be under pressure from his work. Because he seems to be walking alone. I also can't help him directly. I only helped Riana when ordered by Raymond while I was doing assignments. For a month, Raymond was always worried about his unfinished work. He needs investors to redevelop his company. Moreover, there were enough employee layoffs to stabilize the company. Although actually, it doesn't really matter. It's just that his company can no longer pay its employees so the best step is for him to fire many of his employees. If only I were one of his employees. I come from a village and then applied for a job in the city and was accepted, which was a matter of pride for me. Moreover, I can also support myself and my mother. But when I have to be fired because of company interests, I will of course be disappointed. But right now there is no oth
Raymond's POV I've been struggling with my problem for a month but haven't gotten the best results. I also followed Fransisca's advice not to trust anyone, including Nichole, someone I have trusted for a long time. But my company's problems are getting worse. I also have to face that I can't pay my employees because my company's profits are decreasing. I'm getting more and more dizzy. Employees must also receive their salaries. “Sir, what about the employees who have to receive their salaries?” asked my secretary. Of course, she was also stressed because she kept asking questions from the finance department. "Well, I'll talk directly to the head of the finance department later." I immediately met the head of the finance department. "How is it, sir?" asked Mr. Hans. "Well, you already know that our company is experiencing problems, right? Suddenly investors withdrew their
Fransisca's POV I heard that Raymond had fainted in his office. I was really shocked. I immediately took Bobby to the hospital while I left Tissa with a babysitter. According to Nichole, Raymond fainted when he was coming home from work. I'm sure that Raymond is tired and might be late eating. Arriving at the hospital I saw that Raymond was still unconscious. After waiting for a long time, I could see that Raymond had regained consciousness. * The next day Raymond was able to go home. I was also relieved because Raymond was just tired. When he got home, Raymond had to go to work again. I also reminded him not to forget to eat. I also brought him lunch so he didn't need to go to the canteen to buy food. Actually, I already want to go to my house but I have to wait for the right time. Indeed, I feel comfortable at my mother-in-law's house. But I just miss the atmosphere of my house, especially after it has been renovated. Moreover, Tissa is also getting closer to me. Just like Bob
Raymond's POV I wonder why they can immediately believe without any evidence that this company is also bankrupt. It is precisely because these investors withdrew their shares that this company could go bankrupt. I don't want that moment to happen again. I promised my father that I would defend this company for whatever reason. After the board of directors meeting was over I asked everyone to go back to work. I also still have to think about what I should do for now. I even forgot to eat lunch. Suddenly it was four in the afternoon. I just looked at my cell phone. Fransisca sent a message to remind me to eat lunch because I didn't have time for breakfast this morning. When I was about to go home I greeted Nichole and for some reason, my head suddenly felt dizzy. * I saw the ceiling of a room I didn't recognize. I turned around and saw Fransisca and Bobby there. “Raymond, are you a
Raymond's POV After Nadya left her daughter, she never contacted me or my mother again. I even asked her mother where Nadya was, she said Nadya worked abroad. She decided this because she wanted to work for a company abroad. It was as if Nadya had disappeared into the earth and never appeared again. But at least I'm grateful because Nadya doesn't disturb my household with Fransisca. Even now Fransisca has to take care of Tissa. I also don't know how I could have a child with Nadya even though I never touched Nadya. But my mother said that at that time when I took Nadya to the hotel there, I was beaten by Nadya's men. And at that time I was given stimulants and thought Nadya was Fransisca. I still feel disbelief. I never even remembered that moment until now. But maybe that was fate. Even though I was in contact with Nadya, I still called Fransisca there. So because it was a trap by her, she was the one who took re
I don't dare answer yet. “Tissa has a babysitter, ma'am. Why does Fransisca have to take care of her?" said Raymond. When he was with the babysitter, Tissa would often cry. "Well, I want to take care of Tissa, ma'am, Raymond," I answered. "Are you sure?" Raymond asked me to confirm. "Yes, I'm sure. I feel sorry for her too," I answered. “Okay, you just stay here. This house is spacious. Where you want to sleep is up to you. Nadya really doesn't know herself anymore," my mother-in-law raved. Indeed, I also can't say any more. Seeing Tissa who doesn't know anything about her family's problems but now she has to endure. I can't bear to see that. Although to be honest, my heart would also hurt if it turned out that she was indeed Raymond's biological daughter with another woman. Once again, Tissa didn't know what her parents were doing. What is clear is that she wants to grow into a better self from
