In the morning, Raveen looked up at the dark sky. cloudy. It appeared that it would rain. The weather was extremely unpleasant. Who could be excited on such a dreary morning? The gray color same as Raveen's feeling.
He wasn't gloomy for no reason. His father had just asked him to go to Germany right away to settle an issue with the company that Rael managed. It wasn't that he refused to go. What about Lavina, though? Even if Raveen didn't see her for half a day, it could drive him insane, what if he had to leave her side?
His head was heaving. His mind was so crammed that he felt as if his genius title had been forfeited due to a vexing situation. He was powerless to act. He didn't have any brilliant ideas. He couldn't leave without thinking about Lavina. After all, it wasn't only a matter of his heart, but also of the girl's safety.
“What are you thinking about, Raveen? Why are you still here?” scolded his father as he noticed Raveen standing in front of the mansion. A sharp question. Rael seemed so displeased to see Raveen procrastinating on important work.
Raven let out a sigh. Wasn't sure how many times he sighed.
"How long do I have to stay, Dad?" Raveen was curious as to how long he would be separated from his girl.
“One ... or maybe three months, depending on how quickly you can finish it,” Rael replied. Raveen wanted to swear. Come on! He thought it would be only 3-5 days, but 1-3 months? Was his father joking? How could Raveen be able to leave Lavina for that long? This was really bad. Was his father up to something? After all, his own father should have finished the job. Why must Raveen be the main pawn?
After his father told him to get in the car right away, he closed his eyes for a moment. He barely had time to say goodbye to Lavina. She'd be upset with him again, sulking and whining. Protesting to him for the umpteenth time for breaking his promise—even though Lavina's pout was fun for Raveen to see, but it wasn't fun for now. Leaving Lavina and make her put wasn't a solace.
"Dad, what time does the plane leave?" Raveen inquired. He was still on the lookout for new opportunities. He had to meet Lavina, even if it was only for a quick time. He would make sure Lavina was safe while he was away.
"At eight o'clock," Rael said. Raveen looked down at his Rolex watch, which was neatly wrapped around his left wrist. There was still about an hour and a half to go. Wasn't it enough just to go to Lavina? Even if he only had 5 minutes, Raveen would go meet Lavina first.
"Dad, I'd like to go somewhere. I'll get back soon."
Rael looked sharply on Raveen. Rael seemed still guessing what Raveen want.
"Where are you going?" he inquired flatly.
"Meeting my girl," Raveen replied honestly. Raveen was actually afraid to answer the question that had just been posed to him.Raveen was concerned that the man he referred to as "Father" would notice his suspicious behavior.
Rael laughed. Was this son truly madly in love? Rael let Raveen go because there was no deception to his son. Rael would let his son and the girl enjoyed themselves for a while. Assumed the man was lucky.
Rael would demand to meet his son's girl when the time came. He'd think about whether the girl Raveen had chosen was really profitable for his side. Raveen wasn't typical adolescent. Raveen was also a murderer. The girl would have to die if she couldn't accept Raveen's identity.
Raveen was rushing away after intercepting a taxi when the car came to a halt by the side of the road. Raveen then took out his smartphone and dialed someone. Raveen was not going to Lavina's house in the taxi he was riding inRaveen was well aware that he wouldn't be able to escape his father's scrutiny any longer.
"Dante, I need your help," Raveen, who had been connected to Dante, said.
"I know, I'm already close to the bridge near campus," the other side said. Their partnership was undeniably strong. Could always rely on each other for backup.
Raveen grinned smugly, this comrade was so reliable. Raveen immediately went to the location Dante had indicated. They then went to the house where Lavina had been hidden.
On the other hand, Lavina spent the morning listening to Aunt Maria's stories. Aunt Maria was explaining the beauty of Lavina's new house—explaining the details of each room corner—while finishing the chocolate bread, which had become her favorite food.
Pine, citrus, mint musk.
Lavina jumped to her feet when she smelled a very familiar scent and heard footsteps approaching her. It was unsurprising that the man she had missed so much was now nearing her. It's been anticipating his arrival. When she sensed Raveen's presence, her smile widened. Lavina walked gropingly in the direction Raveen had come from.
Bruk.
“Wow wow, Lavina, be careful. Where would you like to go? Why the hurry, hm?” Raveen, who had caught Lavina's body as it was about to fall to the floor, asked.
"Hey, I know you're coming. Raveen, I miss you.”
Lavina expressed her feelings honestly and clearly once more, making Raveen's decision to leave Lavina even more difficult. The man inhaled deeply as he gazed at Lavina's shadowy bead, who was looking somewhere. Could be believed a murderer like Raveen had bad feelings simply because he would leave a blind girl for a long time? It was sound so hilarious for a psychopath, right?
Raveen had to say it, putting aside all of his ego and desire to stay by Lavina's side. He had to inform Lavina that he would be leaving for a while. Of course, this was only a brief mention. He would still return to Lavina.
“Lavina...”
"Hmm?"
Raveen hugged the girl once more and kissed her on the cheek. Long, then quick kissed in the eyes, nose, cheeks, and empties into the lips.
"I'm sorry, but I have to leave for a while."
Deg.
Lavina, who was enjoying Raveen's treatment, was dismayed. When he heard Raveen was leaving, his smile faded and his eyes slowly opened. Lavina, of course, was not pleased. Sh e didn't want Raveen to leave her again. How many times had this occurred?
"You're going to abandon me!" Lavina yelled. She tired of hearing Raveen said he had to leave.
"I'm not looking forward to it, but I have no choice. I'm not going to be gone for long." Raveen countered—No, that's the truth." Raveen was at a loss for what to do.If He truly didn't want to leave Lavina and was unable to stay, Raveen should have another option, right? Then Lavina's advice would be the same every time.
"You're welcome to take me with you!" she said. Correct! Wasn't Raveen capable of accompanying her wherever he goes? Raveen should have taken his very reasonable suggestion.
Raveen tightened his grip on her and kissed the top of her head once more. That was exactly what Raveen wished, but he couldn't reveal the main reason why Raveen couldn't take her away. It was impossible for Raveen to know if Rael, his father wanted to kill him, wasn't it?
"I'm sorry, but I won't be able to take you with me. I really need to get some work done. I'll get right back to you. I promise you, "Raveen made a vow.
Lavina remained silent. She was exhausted. Raveen certainly knew that the girl would become increasingly sulky. Raveen had no choice but to persuade Lavina. There was no other option. He couldn't possibly refuse to go or take Lavina. He had to do it to protect Lavina as well.
In the end, after Raveen's persuasion, she was forced to agree—of course, it worked. Nobody could deny Raveen's reliability when it came to diplomacy. After all, Lavina wasn't truly alone, she was still accompanied by Aunt Maria, who had been eager to teach her many things. Waiting for Raveen shouldn't be too difficult, right?
Raveen had a one-on-one conversation with Aunt Maria before leaving the house. Giving this and that direction to ensure that this middle-aged nanny made no mistakes. Raveen also provided Aunt Maria with a special cell phone so that she could contact him. Aunt Maria had to contact Raveen right away if anything happened.

DiscoveredHamburg wasstunning. Despite this, there was no sight that could tempt Raveen to smile during these two months. Raveen turned blue and then gray as he realized he was thousands of miles away from Lavina. His heart wasa shade of gray. Even black. At the moment, the cumulonimbus cloud hadbeen defeated by Raveen's gloom.Furthermore, the work he had to handle was very closely related to Lavina. Discusses the Dawson family's demise and the wealth they left behind. Perhaps the term "discussion" was too open to interpretation. No way! They were not discussing. They were fighting for the family's wealth. It waslike dogssquabbling over a bone.“Now that all of the Dawsons haddied, no one has the right to inherit the property left behind. But the good news is that the judge decided to leave everything to the Dawson family's business partners because they have debts with all of his colleagues," someone said in the meeti
The world collapsed as those threewords hit him. Just like a storm that slammed into a valley of beautiful fflowers. Disappointed. There was no trace. All of the petals should be flown. It's no longer beautiful. That washow Raveen appearedright now. He was silent in a thousand languages.He had not expected his father to ask him that question so soon. His father had discovered that he was the one who had hidden Lavina. He didn't complete his father's mission. Rael was betrayed by him. He choseto save Lavina rather than kill her. What should he do? "What exactly do you mean, Dad?" Raveen attempted to argue, but instead received a hard slap. PLAK. The stinging and heat on his cheeks could be used to describe Rael's rage toward him. “AREYOU TRYING TO BETRAY ME?!?” shouted hisfather. Rael's rage burst. Hisface was already flushed. Explode. If he didn't remember that Raveen was his flesh and blood, he wa
The two handsomeLandergees hadreturned home. Their business in Germany was temporarily halted while theysearched for Lavina. Rael couldn't tell his colleagues that his son had hidden the girl because he was a father. Rael would punish Raveen himself if he wanted to.Instead of returning home, from the airport, they wentto a location in the middle of the forest. Lavina's location was known. The two men remained silent throughout the journey. Raveen was powerless to intervene. He silently wished Emily had followed through on her promise. Raveen madeplans in his headas well, in case something bad happened after this.Soon, the car came to a halt in the yard of a wooden house in the middle of the forest. Rael and his subordinatesentered the house tobringLavina. However, t hey didn'tfind anyone in the house. Rael suppressed his rage once more. He was I'mHefeeling duped. He had been tricked by his own so
Lavina was still budging. Sitting quietly on the bed, staring at somewhere. Even though she appeared to be silent, the thought of Raveen filled her head with a cacophony of noise. Her heart thudded and she cried out, as if she missed Raveen too much. She wanted to meet, hug, and inhale the scent that had helped her heal.Unfortunately, Emily's words made her even sadder. Missing would be nothing more than a yearning. Emily's word'smeaning had been pondered and understood. She was clearly not permitted to meet Raveen. She turned out to be the cause for the chaos. It wasn't until Emily said it that sherealized what had happened. Was Lavina to blame for Raveen's problems? How serious was Lavina's fault that she had to live without him?However, wasn't LavinaRaveen's 'property'and Raveen's 'owner'? What was Lavina's life likethat she wasno longer owned by her owner? How wouldRaveen be able to live without his?The girl's hea
Emily refrained from expressing her displeasure. She hadn't been able to reach Raveen until now. His son had no intention of meeting her, either. His son's personality had completely shifted. When did Raveenbecome such a dissident?Why didn't Raveen realize Emily was worried about him? Emily kept Lavina hidden and kept them apart for the sake of both of them. Rael and Raveen were both stubborn, the woman knew. Was Raveen unaware that no matter how much he lovedLavina, Rael wouldstill kill her? And that was exactly what Emily steered clear of.Raveen would never allow hisfather to do such a thing, would he?The two men she lovedwould eventually draw swords against each other. Emily was adamant about not siding with anyone. Emily was favorite people were the two gentlemen. He didn't want either of them to be hurt.Unfortunately, when Raveen sulked, Emily was helpless to act. If Emily didn't tell him where Lavina was, he wouldn't want to go hom
BRAK The loud sound of an object being struck deafened the entire house wall. Nothing could keep him from tampering with with the stuff inside the housein order to venthisrage. Unstoppable. It wouldn'tpossible to block. He was furious because he couldn't find Lavina. His gaze was drawn to the two people who had been standing and staring fearlyat their master, especially in a woman who was older thanRaveen. Regardless of the fact that he had entrusted Lavina to her,but she failed to look after his girl. She felt so sorry. Unfortunately, she couldn’t do anything at all. “WHERE ISLAVINA?!?” Rather than asking, Raveen seemed to to be intimidating. He snappedat them. Forcing them to say where Lavina wasor they wouldreceive something terrible, something they could never have imagined. They both bowed deeply. They couldn't even dare to look at Raveen, let alone made a sound. Afraid. Th
Emily's smile broadened when she saw Raveen coming home. Shewas overjoyed that her sonhadreturned homeHowever, her joyfaded as her sonrefused to embrace her. It was the first time Raveen had acted in this manner toward Emily. Her heart ached as Raveenturned down Emily's hug. Of course, the woman knew what caused it without having to ask why. Her son was still irritated because Emily remainedhesitant to reveal Lavina's whereabouts. “Do you have to be this way to me, Raveen?” Emily complained. Raveen cameto a halt and glancedat her. Raveen's gaze was not as intense as it usually was. R Emilyaveenseemed to despise her. Unfortunately, Emily couldn't change Raveen's feeling. "Where else would you hide Lavina?" Raveen asked flatly. He ventured to ask his mother out loud because he knew his father, Rael, was not at home. Even though Raveen knew Emily wouldn't respond, he felt compelled to ask. At the very least, hi
The night passed without Raveen once more. Lavina did get up early in the morning, but she did nothing. Just lying in bed daydreaming about Raveen. At the very least, if she shouldn't be by hisside, she might sense Raveen's presence in herdreams. Of course, it wasa closely guarded secret. Lavina wasn't going to tell anyone else. She was afraid fantasizing about Raveenwould be prohibited as well.She closed hereyes even thoughshe was completely conscious. It feltmore comfortable to create a dream witheyes closed thaneyes open. Suddenly, when she heard someone unlocking the door, Lavina opened her eyes. Sh e sat in the middle of herbed. Who came into the room?"Oh,you areawake already." said someoneIt didn't take long for Lavina to recognize, she was already familiar with thevoice. Lavina knew that someone who hadenteredher roomwasEmily, Raveen's mother
“Can you just smile, Altar? It's not good to show your sulky face to your friends." Lavina stroked Altar's puffy cheeks.Altar Landergee turned five this morning. Their majestic mansion was decorated with tons of balloons and all the birthday knick-knacks. It should be a happy moment for Altar. Everything that was prepared, Lavina made sure was the best and what her son liked the most."Ailee isn't coming!"Finally Lavina knew the reason. Even though the gifts were piled high, it couldn't heal Altar's sadness because his playgroup friend, Ailee didn't come. The little girl had indeed become Altar's favorite friend."Probably she’s coming soon." Lavina tried to cheer up. After all, she had made sure to distribute Altar's
Lavina spontaneously held her big belly when she saw the news on television. Jane reportedly committed suicide, jumping from the top of the media building owned by her parents. Suddenly Lavina had a bad feeling. Was that Raveen's doing? She didn't want to be prejudiced against her husband, but she felt really uncomfortable, as if to suggest that Raveen was behind Jane's death. Especially after their―Raveen and Janes’s―broken marriage, Lavina's life was calmer. Nothing happened other than the excessive reporting of Jane's ugliness that had destroyed Raveen and Lavina's household. Indeed before it was part of Lavina's plan, but this time the news was too much. It was even like exploring all the bad things about Jane and her parents. Rumor had it that they were involved in corruption cases. Their prestige fell and their company was
Since getting pregnant, Lavina has changed. Especially the thoughts. There might be some worries about how she should take care of the baby, but she would absolutely try. As Lavina's pregnancy got older, she felt very attached to the baby. There was a different kind of love that Lavina couldn't describe. If viewed scientifically, it was natural because during pregnancy, the hormone oxytocin, which was said to be the love hormone, increased. That was what caused the mother's love for her baby to be stronger. Maybe in the beginning it was still not so obvious. Just love the kid. Hadn't really loved yet. Just realized that she was going to be a mother and had to take care of her baby. But the tragic incident made Lavina realize how terrified she was. The same fear she had in the past. Especially seeing the blood seeping on the white dress she was wearing. It hurt. But the pain wasn't worth the fear. She was afraid of losing her baby. She didn't want to lose the baby she
Lavina's plan seemed to be going very well. Preparation for the grand wedding had been completed. Just needed to add small things. The rest, the building that had been decorated in such a way was ready for use. Honestly, Lavina was a little jealous because this wedding party was held more grandly than Lavina's wedding. Of course because Jane got a lot of funding from many parties.“Are you living in Disney Land or something?” asked Lavina who looked amazed.Next to her, Jane just smiled lightly. Openly mocking Lavina. She was showing her superiority knowing that her wedding party was grander than anyone else's."Of course. I'm the queen of the Raveen universe. That's how it should be."Lavina raised her eyebrows. She held her big belly. Not because she was an
Lavina and Raveen exited Dawson's company building. There were already many reporters waiting. They purposely went out of the main door. Pretend to be surprised by the reporters presence."How do you react to your scandal?""Is it true that the baby Jane is carrying is yours?""Miss Lavina? How is the condition of your pregnancy? Are you okay?""How do you feel about the scandal that befell your husband?"And many questions asked by the reporters. However, both Raveen and Lavina just kept silent. It wasn’t time for them to speak up. In fact, their silence was deliberately done so as to create more public assumptions. It would be great if the public trusted Jane more, because in the end, when Lavina and Raveen reveal the
News of Jane being pregnant with Raveen's child was spreading. Even the gossip made Landergee's stock price drop. Some parties started to panic a little and asked Raveen to take further action.The enemy in the blanket did exist. What Lavina said earlier was true, some people seemed to be in the opposition. When an emergency meeting was held by all the shareholders, Raveen was forced to take responsibility. Jane must be married to Raveen soon or Landergee's image would get worse.“You asked me to marry him? Why not just force me to do a DNA test on the baby? Is he my son?” Raveen threw a rhetorical question into the forum.“How can it not be your son, Mr Raveen? Several times I saw you with that woman. You even said yourself that she would be your wife after you divorced Miss Lavina.” One of
"Too bad, looks like we have to postpone it," said Lavina. Pretending to be disappointed because the hospital laboratory couldn’t operate. In fact, this incident was just a bait. It was planned by Lavina and Raveen to just follow the flow of his wife's game.Raveen embraced Lavina, "We have to go home," Raveen also pretended to be disappointed."You are right. We have to go home. I'm tired anyway, our baby needs to rest." Jane chimed in. She didn't look disappointed. Her previously panicked face turned bright. As if the problem that befell her could be solved easily.However, this actually made Lavina's guess even more correct. The woman had lied about the child she was carrying. Just thinking about how to get this woman caught up with her next move.“Let's g
Raveen still didn't get what Lavina was planning. His wife didn't look angry at all. Even gave the front seat to that disgusting woman. All Raveen could do was trust Lavina.Even so, Raveen didn't stand still. He asked his men to investigate the woman. Raveen could confirm that the baby she was carrying was not Raveen's child. Raveen had indeed brought her home and to parties, seeing each other often but not for sexual intercourse.Raveen actually wanted to get rid of that woman, but he had to hold back because he trusted Lavina to solve this problem. Raveen suspected someone was behind all this matters. She was too brave to come into the house and lied that she was pregnant with Raveen's child unless someone was standing behind her.Pretending to be pregnant was impossible. If it was true, she certainly wouldn&rsqu
On the weekend, Lavina and Raveen finally left the apartment and moved into their new mansion. Lavina was amazed when she saw such a magnificent building in front of her. The yard was very spacious with several plants, making the atmosphere of the house more beautiful. Moreover, the building was built in the middle of the forest, giving the impression of peace. So amazing. Lavina really liked it. Seemed like … this mansion was so private just for the two of them."You like it?" asked Raveen.Lavina, who was still amazed nodded firmly. Who wouldn't love this mansion? "It’s so beautiful. I really love it.” Lavina’s eyes couldn't escape from the mansion. Combing from all sides, observing all the curves of the mansion."It's like a painting!" Lavina added.
