Nicolas is sure that even if he was cruel in the past, he would never have abused Dianne and touched her physically, she is his own fiancée. Keenan's answer later clarified it made Nicolas relieved. "No, I didn't. You didn't play hands with her. After all, you are an educated businessman. You graduated from Harvard University, your perfectionism has been able to control you," Keenan said. "Thank goodness," said Nicolas as he glanced at Dianne briefly, wanting to know what the girl's facial expression was, but in reality Dianne just looked straight with a flat expression. Nicolas and Keenan talked for a while afterward. Although he wouldn't remember immediately, at least Nicolas could recognize a clear picture of himself that was missing from his memory. He doesn’t know when he can bring those memories back. On the other hand, Dianne was already busy chatting with someone. Agatha sent her some photos of rings that might be shown to Keenan as proof of Dianne's engagement with Nicola
Keenan smacked his lips while resting his back against one of the pillars of the shophouse corridor. Occasionally his eyes glanced at the door not far from him while his ears listened to Dianne and Agatha's conversation. Although the two girls' voices were faint, Keenan could hear their conversation clearly. Finally, the moment Keenan had been waiting for came. Dianne and her friend finished their silly conversation and left the store. Just as Keenan and Dianne's eyes met, Keenan looked at the girl with a sharp look of eyes, as if hinting that Dianne had been caught. Dianne took a loud breath in surprise. Her steps stopped and her eyes bulged in shock. In an instant, the girl understood the current situation, Keenan had been stalking her since who knows when and judging from the man's gaze he had most likely found out the secret of this lie. "Mr. Keenan!" Dianne didn't know what to say. The girl just stood in a daze and was forced to let Agatha slip away to self-saving, after all,
"If you still won't do it, then I can't stop myself from reporting you to the police for lying to all of us," Keenan threatened again. "You know, I can get the police interested in you again by making you an accomplice to the culprit.""Oh, my, Mr. Keenan, you're so mean," Dianne interrupted with an annoyed face. She felt as if she was being threatened and coerced right now."You're helping Nicolas only until he regains his memory," Keenan persuaded, he didn't really mean to turn his apprentice secretary down. "After all, I will give you the salary of being a fiancée who takes care of all her lover's needs, a salary is separate from your internship wages," Keenan clarified.Dianne's pupils dilated slightly at that. Honestly, Keenan's offer just now was enough to change her mind. Who would have thought, she was about to resign from the intern secretary status with very little savings, but it turned out that she could get a side job even though it was annoying to do."Come on, think abo
"Dianne, when is the doctor coming?" Nicolas looked impatient, the man staring boredly at the entrance. He was eager to get up early and was even able to join the small exercises with the patients in the economic ward."Patience, Nicolas. The head nurse said that the doctors in this hospital are still in a meeting," Dianne said for what seemed like the umpteenth time this morning."God, can't they examine me first and then hold a meeting?" Nicolas complained again. He got off the bed and stretched his waist to ease his impatience. "I can walk fine now, I feel rebirth, I should be able to go home.""How so. You have to get a doctor's approval if you want to go home," Dianne said, sitting back on the sofa while looking at her fiancé's ring that she took yesterday and ended up getting caught by Keenan."Huft, it's useless instead I'm a VVIP patient," Nicolas grumbled, apparently his habit had returned naturally without much effort. The man paced back and forth while looking out the glass
"Hey! What are you doing with your hands? Don’t touch me!" Dianne felt Nicolas's hand begin to graze her ass. She grabbed his hand to stop him. "I don't want to do this with someone who has lost their memory.""But I'm still me," Nicolas teased with an evil smile.Dianne argued. "You have no love for me because you have amnesia and don't know what it's like to love. Why would I have sex with someone like that!" She managed to break free and took a few steps back.Nicolas raised an eyebrow. He had been thinking about a lot of things lately, including his engaged relationship with Dianne. Seeing Dianne's expression of unwillingness made Nicolas finally give in. He just wanted to test Dianne, what type of girl she was. Based on the test just now, it seemed like his fiancée was the principled type when it came to relationship matters.He let Dianne move away and then looked at the view of the hospital garden which was beginning to fill with fallen leaves."Hmm, looks like spring is here,"
Dianne rolled her eyes after peering at Nicolas through the rearview mirror of the taxi. Really, she had to fight with Nicolas again just because he didn't want to take a taxi home. The two of them had argued even while walking down the hallway of the hospital corridor earlier.I don't know what the man wanted, why suddenly his boss was suddenly showing favoritism just to go home from the hospital alone.'He thinks, as the CEO he wants to be welcomed home by an orchestra! Dianne grumbled to herself, remembering how annoying Nicolas could be when he sulked. 'It's useless being handsome but sulking!" she grumbled again.Nicolas, on the other hand, was just looking out the glass window of the taxi. Although he was happy to have been discharged by the doctor, for some reason he felt so empty.'I have no relatives at all? Really? Nicolas felt that something was not right. 'What kind of life did I lead in the past without a family? How could there be none? How did I become what I am now?" h
Nicolas and Dianne. They have been engaged for two months and the CEO lives in a luxurious penthouse overlooking the city skyline. Since Nicolas's return from the hospital, Nicolas has returned to live in his penthouse and relies heavily on Dianne. However, it was Dianne who took advantage of the opportunity.There's a long list of small revenges she's going to take on Nicolas and she's going to take them out one by one on the CEO.The first thing she uses is eggplant. Unexpectedly it leads to a simple dispute over an eggplant triggering a series of events that will test the strength of their relationship.Nicolas, being a successful businessman, was always a picky eater. He particularly dislikes one type of vegetable, the eggplant. It’s slimy texture and strange taste made him feel nauseous, and he would avoid it at all costs. Dianne, on the other hand, loved eggplant and thought of it as a vegetable that wasn't bad.That morning, as they sat down to breakfast in the elegant dining r
"How dare you lie to me, Dianne!" Nicolas yelled in frustration. "I never liked eggplant, I'm sure of it!"Dianne caught lying to Nicolass' accusations, felt compelled to defend her argument. To be more convincing, she fought back tears as she tried to defend herself. "Nicolas, that's not a lie. Before the accident, you loved eggplant. It was your favorite vegetable! The doctor said you might have memory loss, but I think this dish can bring back some of your old memories."Nicolas just stared at Dianne, confused. "Doctor? What doctor? I think you have some issues that need to be addressed, Dianne. I don't remember the doctor ever mentioning my favorite food."Dianne, who was on the verge of tears, knew that the doctor was right. She felt helpless, and couldn't accept his words."I... I'm sorry, I just thought..."Nicolas was getting annoyed, this girl had made him throw up because of that annoying eggplant. He didn't like her at all."Sorry? Sorry?! You are nothing but a nuisance! Fi
"Where is Dianne? Why my lovely girl hasn’t shown up yet?"Nicolas glanced at the watch on his wrist as it was already 10 AM. They were supposed to be at the conference center where Nicolas was giving his speech about the new project he had signed with the partner company.However, the girl, his secretary and lover, had not yet appeared. He had to hug Dianne first in order to achieve composure during the ceremonial speech and ribbon-cutting later."Come on, Dianne. He said he was just fixing a stuck zipper on his skirt," Nicolas grumbles, smoothing the tie around his neck. In the near future, Nicolas would not be appointing his new deputy or assistant as Keenan's replacement. He would leave the position vacant for the time being.The CEO received several surprised looks from employees in front of the lift on the same floor, as everyone knew that Nicolas was supposed to be in the conference center.In reply to the astonished look and respectful greeting, Nicolas just nodded formally. A
"All this time I had forgotten that moment, without realizing, I had made a mistake and just forgot about it. Even though my mistake was about Keenan's sister's life," Nicolas continued. "To be honest, until Keenan mentioned his sister's name, I didn't really remember, but I finally remembered that during my college internship, I had reported an individual who leaked the data of the company where we were both interning.""Did that happen before you started your current company?" asked Dianne, showing that she was paying full attention to Nicolas' confession.Nicolas nodded. "Long before that, when I was far from mature. I reported that person, who was one of Keenan's sisters, even though that woman had begged me not to report her and to repent.""Hmm, I see." Dianne nodded.Nicolas pulled his head away from Dianne's shoulder out of pity for the girl to support his heavy back for so long. Instead, Nicolas hugged Dianne's body to seek warmth from his girl. "I didn't even care about that
Now, Dianne knows what really happened to this father and son, Andreas and Nicolas. Fate was too cruel to them. Too many things have made Nicolas as cold-hearted as he is now, but in the midst of his cold heart, Dianne will be the only warmth for him.By Nicolas, he no longer cares if Andreas is his biological father, the man is just like a parasite to him. It was enough for him to endure the man in silence and that's why no one in the public knew Nicolas' family secrets in the past including his extended family.Nicolas manages to make himself known as a single man, which is just a cover for his image, a cover for the various wounds he has been hiding. Finally, Dianne will know all that through the past that Nicolas will tell her later."Now, let my girl go!" shouted Nicolas with a strong growl. He knew that talking to Andreas wouldn't solve the problem at all. But what could he do, he didn't know what else to do."My brother is being held captive, Nicolas!" exclaimed Dianne in betwe
Seeing that things were getting out of control, Nicolas finally confessed. This situation shows that he can no longer hide this secret."What Laura and Tania said is true, Ma... Pa," Nicolas said softly. It was useless to deny everything, the evidence was so strong, and he also didn't want to continue this lie anymore."Nicolas... what do you mean, child?" Mrs. Bianca pressed her chest in pain. It hurt to hear this confession from her son."In the past, Georgia and Andreas were in a relationship. They were dating and Georgia got pregnant," Nicolas explains. "I was so sorry and couldn't bear to see Georgia's downfall. I finally agreed to marry Georgia to protect her dignity. At first, I just felt sorry for her and wanted to help her, but then my feelings for her grew and now I really love her very much."Georgia who was sitting next to Nicolas could only look down to hide her tears. She couldn't bear all this, her heart was so broken because finally the old wound was reopened, even now
BREAK!!"SHUT UP!" Andreas kicked the table because he didn't want to hear any more of that nonsense from Keenan. "Now give me the tape!" he scolded in a threatening tone.Keenan, who was not at all intimidated, smiled and shrugged his shoulders. Of course, the purpose of coming here was to give the recording to Andreas."I can guess what will happen," Keenan grinned to himself as he waited for the audio recording of the conversation between him and Georgia to be sent to Andreas' mobile phone. "Surely after this Andreas will be furious with Georgia. And... their household will be even more fractured, shattered into pieces," he mused.Andreas now had the tape. His face was still as red as the tie he was wearing. He struggled to control his emotions in order to protect his dignity in front of Keenan."Has the recording been sent completely?" Keenan wanted to make sure.Andreas was silent, his breathing was ragged and he didn't know what action he would take with this footage."You'd bet
After praising her for being such a genius, Keenan immediately grabbed his car keys and intended to come visit Georgia at her office.In his usual black car, Keenan drove to the location where Georgia was now.As soon as he arrived at the restaurant that was only a hundred kilometers away from the parking lot of Georgia's office, Keenan immediately entered and cast his eyes over the rows of tables in the restaurant.Her eyes immediately caught Georgia's figure sitting by the window. Alone and looking pensive. In natural style, Keenan pretended to be surprised when he met Georgia and sat in front of her."Well, what a coincidence that you're here, Georgia," he grinned, placing his car keys on the table. "Are you alone?"Georgia nodded. "Are you alone? What are you doing here?" Georgia wondered. She thought Keenan's office was far enough away that there was no way he would have traveled that far for lunch to this restaurant."Ah, I had a lunch appointment with a friend, but it turns out
Since then, Andreas' attitude has slowly changed and he has become cold towards Georgia. For the past few days, the two of them have been communicating less and less. On the one hand, Andreas is busy with his work and so is Georgia whose career is getting smoother and better.However, Georgia certainly felt the change in her man. The few times she tried to engage Andreas in conversation, he would pull away and say that he was tired and worn out.There was a nagging feeling in Georgia's mind that Andreas was still angry with her."I already apologized," Georgia thought in a sad tone as she sat pensively in the room. "I even begged by prostrating myself in front of him, was that not enough?" Slowly, Georgia's tears welled up in her eyes.He turned his head towards the bathroom whose door was closed. The man had taken a shower immediately after waking up in the morning. Normally Andreas would ask Georgia to prepare his clothes for going out but it had been over a week since he had asked
Mrs. Bianca and Dianne chatted until it was getting late. The sun had moved from the top of the head to the western horizon. Mrs. Bianca went into the house first as her knees began to ache when evening came.Dianne, who was just about to enter the house, saw Nicolas' car entering their yard. Suddenly, a smile appeared on her lips because her man was home.Dianne took Nicolas straight up to the room and let him clean up first. Meanwhile, Dianne brought the remaining pieces of fruit into the room for her man to eat."How was work?" asked the woman who wanted to know what Nicolas had been doing at the office all day."As usual." Nicolas dried his hair, the man had just finished showering and his body now felt very fresh. "Ah, yes. But there's something I want to tell you." He remembered as he rubbed the white towel on his head.The man glanced at Dianne who was sitting on the bed while Nicolas was inside the sink room which could be seen from the direction of the bed."What's the story
"Stop messing with my life, Father!" shouted Nicolas in frustration. He had no idea that he, Dianne, and Andreas could be in such a heartbreaking moment.What man wouldn't have a dilemma when the girl he loved was being held captive by his father? Truly, this was Nicolas' worst nightmare in his entire life.Andreas grinned while showing his row of yellow teeth, to be honest, the man had never considered Nicolas as his son, but rather his financial source all along. That way, he could continue to capitalize on this ill-fated relationship."If you want to blame me, then wouldn't you rather blame the universe for having you born as my flesh and blood!" grinned Andreas, tightening his hold on Dianne.Nicolas shook his head. "This time I've had enough! You think I can't put you in jail just because a bastard like you is my father?" he snarled."You know nothing about my past, you should respect me!" added Andreas, not to be outdone."You think I don't know what your past is like to have me
