Audrey left Daniel and headed to the company cafeteria. Talking to Daniel made her heart hot, so she decided to cool down with a glass of juice. After all, she was also waiting for Nicky to finish his meeting.She needed to tell Nicky that no matter what happened, no matter what Daniel would do, Audrey would never leave Nicky. She would always be by Nicky's side to help her.The man deserved it. Audrey is not the type of nut that forgets its shell. After all, Nicky's current problems were related to her, so it was Audrey's duty to help solve them.Audrey sighed tired of all the problems that had happened in her life lately. Everything was so sudden. Audrey was being confronted with her past that was on display again.No matter how she tries to escape it all, fate still brings her back to meet her past.In another place.After Audrey's departure, the grin on Daniel's face that had appeared slowly faded. Then he looked down at the pond below. The ring meant so much to Daniel. Back then,
Daniel sat on the edge of the pool. He was exhausted while the other two continued their search. His hands then pulled at the knot of the tie that felt strangling around his neck, stretching it so that he could take a deep breath.Daniel had been searching for over an hour, but the man hadn't found him. He looked up at the hot midday sun, then his gaze returned to the two men there. He was a little frustrated, but he wasn't about to give up.***After leaving the cafeteria, Audrey was inside Nicky's room. She sat down unfocused. Her mind was reminded of Daniel throwing himself into the pool. An honorable man like Daniel would humble himself by getting into the pool just for a ring. Audrey didn't expect it.Nicky put the documents on his desk, then noticed Audrey's pensive, blank look. He walked over to her.Nicky was worried that the problem that had just occurred would disturb and burden Audrey's mind. She knew very well that Audrey was a typical
Nicky had to hold another meeting with the shareholders to discuss the continuation of the company's management, which had been disrupted by Daniel's arrival.For now, Audrey can also relax because Daniel will not bother Nicky for a while.Even so, she must not let her guard down because Daniel can suddenly act unexpectedly.Ah, it felt like she was at war with him. Why did Daniel have to reappear in her life? Since then, Audrey's sleep has never been peaceful.Being too bored there and not knowing when Nicky would finish, Audrey decided to go home first. Alea was also waiting for her at home. She took the elevator down to the ground floor.As she passed the pool, she paused and remembered how Daniel had thrown himself in there, looking for something that had no use anymore."Don't know who this belongs to.""Looks like one of the visitors here left it behind."Audrey heard the conversation and looked back. There were two s
Kenzie stayed in the garden by himself for a long time. He threw various pebbles and also moved back and forth to watch the ants walk by.He usually did these activities with Alea. After getting bored there, Kenzie decided to go back to class. He always ran into some friends who greeted him, but Kenzie only replied with a faint smile. Reluctant to interact more.Sitting on his seat, Kenzie's hand fumbled with his pants pocket, about to take out the picture he had folded earlier. However, Kenzie suddenly turned into a panic because he couldn't find the picture."Hah!"Kenzie stood up and reached into his two pants pockets and sure enough, they were empty. He hurriedly ran back to the park. He even ignored the calls of some of his friends.Kenzie traced each of the paths he had passed carefully and continued to do so until his feet stopped at the park. Kenzie circled the park and searched through the bushes, but still couldn't find it.It felt l
Because he was running, Kenzie fell. However, he tried to get up again and keep running. Although his knee was injured, he didn't care at the moment. he kept running towards the principal's office. he had to confirm the news he had just heard. Kenzie slowed his pace when he arrived in front of the principal's room.It happened that the room wasn't fully closed and Kenzie could see Audrey sitting in front of the principal's desk. He stopped and tried to overhear what Alea's mother and the principal were saying."So, is your decision made?"The principal asked once again. Alea was an outstanding student and a source of pride for the school. In addition, her parents were also active in social donations and other activities.The principal regretted Audrey's decision to take Alea away from the school.Audrey let out a long sigh. To be honest, she also regretted Alea's move. Audrey had already gotten along well with the school's teaching system. In addition,
Kenzie gave Audrey a pleading look. He didn't want to be separated from Alea. Alea was the only one who could understand what Kenzie wanted. Kenzie couldn't imagine how he would be at school without Alea.Seeing how Kenzie pleaded with her, Audrey's heart ached. The look on the child's face even showed that he wanted to cry at this point."Please. Don't take Alea away," he pleaded once again. Occasionally Kenzie glanced at the principal who was currently looking at him with pity.Kenzie hated being pitied, but for once it was okay. Let others feel sorry for him. The important thing was that Alea was not kept away from him.Since Alea came along, Kenzie's days have become more cheerful. He loves to be with Alea and watches her behavior, especially her upset face when Kenzie teases her. He doesn't get that from his other friends.If Alea left, there would be no one to make him laugh and feel good.Kenzie looked back at Audrey for a few seconds
It was already noon. Daniel was currently at a boutique to change his clothes that were wet from the "dunking" incident in the pool. Daniel checked his jacket pocket and looked for his cell phone."Hans, have you seen my cell phone?" Daniel asked his assistant. Because he had been looking for it, but Daniel did not find his cell phone."No, sir," Hans replied as he approached him.Daniel chuckled in annoyance. How could he lose his cell phone? That was careless. He used to always say that Audrey was a very careless person and always scolded her, but now he was acting carelessly.Daniel opened his palm, there was a sparkling ring. Audrey's ring was thrown into the pond.For the sake of this ring, Daniel was willing to look stupid. Daniel snorted ridiculously. Audrey had affected him.Daniel chuckled slightly, then shook his head slowly. A faint smile still graced his face.Seeing that, Hans looked puzzled. "What's wrong, sir?" He was a
Patricia frowned, how did the ring end up on Daniel's hand?Curious to death, she approached Daniel's assistant. Patricia was sure that the man must have known what Daniel was doing."Hans." Patricia walked over in a hurry."Yes, Miss?" Hans moved closer."How did this ring end up in Daniel's hand?" Patricia showed the ring to Hans."That ring... Miss Audrey threw it into the pond and Mr. Daniel took it back."Patricia clenched her hands together until her knuckles turned white. Her heart heated up and burned with jealousy.Daniel and Audrey. Why did they always have to be related?"Have they been seeing each other a lot lately?" Patricia asked again."No ma'am, just a few times by chance."Patricia certainly didn't just believe Hans' words. She knew very well how loyal the man was to Daniel, there must be something Hans was hiding from her!She looked at Daniel who was still closing his eyes from a distance. Patricia thought that Daniel was the one who had been chasing Audrey and ask
“Really? Oh, my gosh! I never expected that.” Violen laughed, mocking Audrey for not being in her class.She had always known that Audrey couldn't compare to her, it was just that everything Audrey did made Violen feel rivaled and she hated it.“The restaurant I booked is a five-star restaurant and you know everyone who comes there is a classy person. I can't wait to see how embarrassed she feels coming in an electric car.”Violen deliberately arrived earlier than the others. However, what she expected did not happen at all.Violen was astonished to see Audrey arrive in a sports car.Yuni was wrong; the car with two passenger seats was not an electric car, but a sports car. Seeing this made Violen feel envious of Audrey.How could she come together with a man who brought a sports car.“She's your friend from the hospital, right?” asked Fero, Violen's husband who remembered Audrey.Violen nodded irritably. Fero noticed Audrey's arrival along with the man beside her. Fero's eyebrows kn
Violent's name flashed on Audrey's phone screen.Audrey exhaled harshly before she answered the call.“Audrey, you're coming, right?” Violent asked Audrey to confirm her arrival.Violent didn't do it without reason. He had to make sure that the main star of tonight's show was coming.Violent didn't want to miss the exciting show tonight.She wanted to see how the others saw Audrey and commented on her. “Yes, I'll come...” Audrey turned to Vincent who was looking at her at the moment. “Together with my friend,” Audrey added at the end of the sentence.Hearing this, Vincent secretly smiled happily because Audrey admitted to her friends that she would invite her along.“Emmh, here's the thing Audrey. This event is a classmate reunion, so it wouldn't be right if you brought an outsider along.” Violent objected to hearing that Audrey was going to invite other people to come.It wasn't as if Audrey was bringing someone else that Violent didn't know, so she would have a hard time putting Au
Vincent was very happy that Audrey had allowed him to join the ladies' event this time. He didn't expect Audrey to melt down so quickly and let him join her.For him, this was a step further than before. If before he could only chat with Audrey stiffly, this time he could feel closer because Audrey wanted to go with him.And Vincent had to make the most of it. “So, school reunion?” Vincent asked, breaking the silence between them on the way to the place Audrey had mentioned earlier.Audrey turned to him. “I thought you wouldn't be interested in this kind of triviality,” Audrey said. Given the character of the Anderson family, she thought Vincent was just like them.“Who said that? I love these kinds of shows,” was Vincent's blunt reply that immediately made Audrey shut her mouth not knowing what else to say.They had been traveling for an hour when Vincent finally parked his car in the basement parking lot of a shopping center.Audrey got out of the car and immediately waltzed away w
Alea glanced at Kenzie, who was asking Audrey to read a story to her, even though she had intended to ask Audrey to read a story to her, but Kenzie had preceded her.Alea looked down somberly.Seeing that her little daughter was silent, Audrey understood that something had happened to the child.“Alea, what's wrong, dear?” Alea shook her head. Kenzie also turned to Alea with her storybook in hand.“Do you want something?” asked Audrey, trying to find out why Alea had suddenly become moody. Alea didn't usually act like this.Alea shook her head again without saying a word. Kenzie watched her brother, looking at Alea and the book the little girl was holding in turn.Then, she also looked at the storybook currently held by Audrey and Kenzie immediately understood.“Mom, the book Alea is holding looks like a good story. How about Mommy read that one first,” Kenzie said.Audrey looked at her son with a frown on her forehead.Alea looked up at Kenzie who was smiling at her.“Okay, all rig
Vincent. That man was the one who contacted Audrey at this time.Audrey was breathing heavily now. The man never tired of bothering her."How do you know my cell phone number?" Audrey asked curtly.She didn't bother to mask her dislike for Vincent. Several times Audrey showed it by saying sadistic things to the man.Miraculously, the man never took offense and always spoke kindly to her, whether Vincent realized it or not. Although occasionally Vincent's words felt a little strangled even though the man said in a soft tone."Audrey, can we meet today?"Audrey massaged her temples, which were getting dizzy from Vincent's presence. "Vincent, can you stay out of my life?""No!" Vincent replied innocently.Audrey growled under her breath. For God's sake, what sins had she committed to meet someone like Vincent today?"Come on, Vi. I want to chat with you." Vincent tried to persuade Audrey with his friendly words."I don't think we're that close that you can just call me "Vi"." Audrey prot
Kenzie's smile grew as soon as she saw Audrey appear from behind the door.He looked very happy with her arrival.But not for Daniel. The man just stared flatly at Audrey, he felt a little relieved that Audrey had come, but also felt a little annoyed that Audrey continued to ignore him.Audrey stepped into the room and her eyes were only on Kenzie and Alea who were on the bed. She came closer and rubbed Kenzie's head affectionately.“That's right, Mommy's coming,” Alea chirped, which was immediately followed by a grin from Kenzie.Audrey raised her eyebrows at the two children who didn't understand.“Kenzie kept asking about you and Alea said that you would come,” Daniel answered Audrey's curiosity.Audrey heard him, but she didn't turn to Daniel when he spoke.Audrey smiled. “Mommy will come, sweetheart.”Kenzie held out her hand, which was immediately welcomed by Audrey. “I want Mommy to stay here,” she said spoilingly. Alea took one look at them and returned to the game in her han
The phone call was from Lily. Daniel was reluctant to answer the call at first, but then he realized that personal matters should not be mixed up with work.At this hour, Lily must have contacted him regarding work matters. So Daniel got up from his seat and walked to the window to answer the call."What's wrong?" Daniel asked directly without saying a pleasant greeting to Lily.There, Lily could feel the coldness of Daniel's response to her. Lily's heart became uneasy hearing it."Sir, there are some important and urgent documents for you to sign today," Lily said, explaining her purpose in contacting Daniel.Luckily, there was a job that could still connect her with Daniel. Since yesterday, Lily had been upset because Daniel had left with an angry look on his face.After that, she didn't dare to contact Daniel and discuss the problem that happened between them, even just ask how he was doing, she didn't dare. And now, fortunately, there was work that made her have to contact Daniel.
One by one, she checked the rooms closest to her room.Ever since Kenzie had been hospitalized, Audrey had put everyone who worked in her house on vacation. So her house was empty at the moment.Audrey thought it was Joni who came to her room to check on her, but then she felt that it wasn't Joni because she saw the man's room in the dark back pavilion.Audrey was familiar with Joni's habit of falling asleep with the lights off. So it was impossible that the person Audrey thought was coming earlier was Joni.Audrey then exhaled harshly and re-entered her room. Her mind couldn't focus because she kept thinking about that man over and over again.***In another place.At this time Abraham came to see Sherin, the man looked worried about Sherin's poor condition.“This must be Audrey's doing.” Without asking any more questions, the man was already throwing accusations at the woman.And Sherin left the old grandfather with the misunderstanding.“I will never let her enter the Anderson. Eve
Audrey stood with her body tense. Because at this time she had just seen Daniel and Lili kissing. After a while the apartment door closed.Audrey's heart throbbed with pain at this moment. Her gaze looked very grim. She did not expect that she would witness Daniel's intimate scene with his mistress.And what Asha said now she proved it herself. She wasn't lying about Daniel having a mistress for the past five years.If that was the case, then why was he always chasing Audrey and asking her to get back together.Audrey walked gingerly out of the apartment.At first, she tried not to suspect even though she had previously seen Daniel's clothes in the woman's apartment, but now what she saw was in fact much more painful and Audrey regretted having followed Daniel to this place.Previously, Audrey had also gotten the woman's social media name. There was an almost identical post every year on the same date.The post was a picture of Lily having a romantic dinner with a man. It's just that
