"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

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.

    "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

He couldn't come yesterday because he had a lot of work to do at Buenos Solar Company, where Nicolas was the CEO.This afternoon, Keenan decided to visit Nicolas during his lunch break. He came not only because he wanted to see how Nicolas was doing after coming home from the hospital but also because he wanted to complain about his work, which had doubled since Nicolas had taken sick leave. As he walked towards the elegant entrance, the grandeur of the penthouse loomed above him. The towering glass windows, reflecting the sunlight, seemed to welcome him inside. Keenan entered the penthouse and was greeted by the opulence that surrounded him. The marble floors shone under the glow of crystal chandeliers. Paintings adorned the walls, telling stories of forgotten eras.

    Keenan nodded his head, realizing that Nicolas was determined to return to work as quickly as possible. He grinned and raised his coffee cup. "To new beginnings!" "Anyway, what about the person who hit me?" “I've been waiting to hear from the police for the past few days but it seems that they're only dealing with you. You're overseeing this hit-and-run case," ask Nicolas, crossing his leg to feel more comfortable. "The person who hit you hasn't been caught yet. As you know, all the CCTV cameras around your village have been vandalized and the police believe that it was the perpetrator's doing," said Keenan. Nicolas, frustrated by the lack of progress in the investigation, could no longer contain his frustration. "Keenan, what are you going to do about it? I need to know that you'll investigate the case and make sure that this person is brought to justice." Nicolas clenched his fists tightly. "You can't just leave this case on the back burner and expect everything to return to norm

    Nicolas nodded. "Good luck, friend. See you tomorrow at the office.""Sounds good. Make sure you come with Dianne. I'm having trouble answering the other employees' questions about why she hasn't come in since your accident.""So, what do you say?" Nicolas escorted Keenan to the penthouse terrace."I said that she's on leave because she's still in mourning," Keenan said."Mourning? What do you mean mourning?" Nicolas, who was suffering from memory loss, was surprised to learn that Dianne was in mourning. The girl had never told him anything."You weren't told by her? Her mother died three days before your accident,""What?!"Keenan continued, "That's right.""What kind of person doesn't tell his fiancée that his mother died?" Nicolas asked, surprised."Well, I guess Dianne had her reasons," Keenan replied with a shrug.Nicolas felt a sharp pain in his chest. He never knew about the death of the girl's mother. "Then, what was she like all this time? She took care of me in the hospital e

    "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.

    "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.

    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
