“Son, take some rest for a while.” Shaina pitied for her son’s situation. Since his return, he has not stopped looking for his wife even though they have ordered someone to do the job. Even the police search has no results. “I’m fine, Mom,” he said, not looking at his mother and remained in front of the laptop. Shaina sighed sadly as she watched her son. He continued to study and was looking for his wife at the same time. He couldn’t even look at his youngest sister and she knew the reason. It hurts him to see a baby and he thinks of the child in Sunshine’s womb. “About Arriana, how is she doing?” Adrian thought and asked his mother.“I talked to her earlier, she is fine and doesn’t want to go home yet. I don’t know what she seen in that place and she doesn’t want to go home to continue her studies.”Adrian stopped what he was doing for a moment and looked at his mother. He was so busy that he didn’t notice what his sister was doing. “I’ll call her.”Shaina nodded and left her elde
Wearing their thick face masks, Travis and Adrian entered the morgue together. Adrian almost didn’t want to look at the corpses when the veils were removed from their faces to their shoulders. The body is still intact, but the color is different, and the face is deformed. “No, that’s not Sunshine!” Adrian shook his head while his fists are clenched. Travis pitifully put his hand over his son’s shoulder and pressed it gently. He knew he couldn’t accept that his wife was gone. Adrian quickly turned around and called Cyrus. He felt that his father was just following him. “I’m on my way there, I just caught someone who was acting strangely,” Cyrus answered from the other line.Travis and Adrian waited patiently in the car. Their personnel were also spread around to make sure there were no enemies around. The two bodies died from gunshot wounds, so the perpetrators may be just around the corner. Seeing Cyrus’s car,
“Sunshine, is that really you? What happened? Why did they kill you?” Janice is crying, and her hands are shaking while caressing a precious little jar. “Daughter, that’s enough!” Janice also tearfully hugged her daughter who was crying a lot in front of Adrian’s family. “No, Mom, I can’t accept it! Why is my sister gone now? Why is it now when I want to get back with her?” Shaking her head as she tightly hugged the place where the corpse’s ashes were located. Janice covered her mouth with her palm to stop a loud sob. It’s a pity to watch her child being so emotional. But when she caught Travis’ eyes staring at her, her look was pleading. Begging for justice for the loss of her stepdaughter.Travis sighed and looked away from Janice. He suddenly felt sorry for them because they were grieving for the wrong person. But he has to do that because there is no one to trust now except the elite people. Even Trisha and Arriana are u
“Luke, thank you, but someone already wholesaled my vegetables.” She was speaking almost in a whisper and if she could drive the young man away, she would have done it. She doesn’t know why, but she doesn’t want the two men to meet each other. Sunshine glanced again at the location of the gangster-looking man. She was afraid of him, but she couldn’t walk away when he was close. Because her chest was pounding so hard and she was afraid he would get angry. She feels that the man is a mafia. It was been a week since their paths crossed, with the man making her heart beat so fast for unknown reason. His face has an ugly aura and he speaks sparingly. It’s like he’s afraid of her too, but he’s always around. “Good morning, Ms. Shine!”Shine smiled at the lady who always approached and talked to her. That’s why she feels safe even though the man who claims her as his wife is because of this lady. Until to this day, she is still con
“Sweetheart, didn’t you like the food I cooked?” Nida asked the girl when she noticed that she could hardly touch the food. Adrian pulled out his cellphone again and sent a message to his mother. “Mom, what should I do? She doesn’t want to eat. Should I leave?” “I’m sorry, what you cooked was delicious, but I lost my appetite.” Nida raised her eyebrows and caught a glimpse of where the girl was looking. Sunshine quickly looked back at the food when she noticed that the lady was looking at her. Nida smiled before looking at Adrian. “Adrian, talk to your chat mate later after we eat.”Adrian looked up, and glanced at his wife then at his former nanny. Sunshine was still frowning so she couldn’t eat. The truth was, he is restless so he asked his mother what to do. “It’s Mom—” Adrian didn’t finish what he had to say when Nida spoke again. “Goodness, tell whoever you were chatting with that you’ll talk later, honey.”Adrian glared at the lady and Sunshine might think differently.
“You want to talk to my woman?” Adrian asked seriously, but he seemed happy looking at his wife.Sunshine squinted angrily at the man and wasn’t happy at the way he challenged her. She was annoyed because he thought of her as a child that could believe like that easily.Even though his wife did not answer, Adrian still called his mother and put it on the loudspeaker. Sunshine’s eyes widened when the man did what he told her. Obviously, she felt ashamed when she heard the voice of the elderly woman. “Son, is there a problem?” Shaina asked again when the other line was silent. “She’s jealous because—” Adrian didn’t finish speaking, and his wife quickly grabbed the cellphone from him. “Argh!”“Hello, son, what’s going on there?” Shaina was worried and heard her son moaning and seemed to be hurt.Sunshine quickly covered the man’s mouth so as not to make any more noise. She knew he was hurt because he lost his balance and fell on the hard bed. Plus, she ran over him. She didn’t want him
“My friend.” Adrian raised the cellphone he was holding and presented the screen to his wife. Her eyebrows were still raised, and she looked away from the man's hand after reading the name of the person he was talking to. “Adrian, are you with someone there?” Jessica asked again when she heard from the other line that the young man was talking to someone else. Sunshine looked at the man again when she heard the woman’s voice. She didn’t know, but she didn’t like the woman’s voice. She felt even more irritated, and felt like she wasn’t just a friend if she talked to Adrian. Adrian didn’t turn off the speaker, so his wife wouldn’t think otherwise. “Yes.” “Who?” Jessica’s eyebrows met. “Why does she need to know who you are with?” Sunshine couldn’t stop herself from saying what was on her mind.Jessica was relieved when she heard a woman’s voice and the voice seemed familiar to her. “Adrian is—” “Let’s talk when I’m not busy,” Adrian interrupted his friend’s speech, and he ended t
Sunshine didn’t know what happened, but her eyes remained alert while her mouth was closed. She was surprised when Adrian suddenly hugged her, and his mouth was on her lips. She couldn’t move because of the shock and strange feelings that filled her heart. “Please, don’t be afraid of me. Let me prove to you that I don’t have another woman,” Adrian pleaded while gently caressing his wife’s cheek. Just then, Sunshine blinked when she heard the man’s hoarse voice. She almost squinted because the distance between their two faces was only a span. Then, she looked down, and stared at the man’s lips. He continued to speak, but she couldn’t understand. Her brain was occupied with various thoughts.Adrian stopped speaking when he noticed where his wife’s eyes were focused. He was also staring at her moist lips. He was suddenly got thirsty so that he couldn’t stop his mouth from covering her lips again. Sunshine closed her eyes when she saw the man’s head lowered, and made an angle, so that
“Alexander, don’t compare that child to all the girls that you have made your toy. Because even if she’s just a maid’s daughter, I value them so much, and I consider them part of our family!”Alexander smiled after remembering what his grandmother told him. She still didn’t believe what he answered to her, but she still gave him the information he asked for.“Do you see something funny in my face?”Alexander blinked. He didn’t realize that he was stunned while staring at the girl’s face. He continued chewing before answering her. “Why are you so beautiful, baby?”“Alexander, how many times should I have to remind you not to call me baby because I’m older than you?” She complained angrily to the young man. “Alright, then let’s get into the point; say yes so you can be my girlfriend and I can be your boyfriend before I change our endearment.”“What? Are you insane? Are you courting me for you to say that to me?” She glared at him. So, this is how Alexander thought of them? Alexander s
Ava angrily hit the young man on the arm with her hand when she recognized him. If she only had a heart disease, she might have been attacked because of frightening her.“Ouch, baby!” Alexander caressed his arm even though it didn’t hurt.“Moron! Why do you have to drag me here without a word?” She glared at the young man. The Jew just grinned at her. It’s so good to smack his face. But she immediately reprimanded herself, and something else came to her mind.“When I say come with me here, will you come willingly?” Alexander’s asked at the girl philosophically.Ava glared at the young man. It is obvious what her answer will be to his question. Of course, it’s a no. What will be the reason for her to come here and to the private office that only the chairman uses? Even if it is said that the chairman is his father, it is still embarrassing.It was his first time to enter that room, and she couldn’t stop her own eyes from wandering to the beautiful staff inside the office. She looked at
Miranda was once again impressed with Alexander when he perfected the exam. He’s not just handsome, but he’s also smart. Brix is not lagging behind either, but he has five mistakes. And her? Here she is; her score hangs in the balance like the rest of her classmates. It doesn’t matter; the important thing is that she still has something to be proud of, and that is the beauty of her face and body.“Girl, are you serious about Alexander being your birthday escort?” Julie asked in a whisper.“Yes, it’s easy to change the invitation.” She smiled and knew that her mother would give her everything she wanted because she was her only daughter. Her brothers also love her and are ready to fight when she is hurt.“The question is, will he agree?” Julie asked her friend teasingly.Miranda glared at her friend; they had free time, so they had time to chat. They went to the canteen and looked for Alexander, but they couldn’t find him.“Ms. Ava, a present has arrived for you, and it’s at the facult
After entering the classroom, Ava immediately looked around. The first person she saw was Brix. He seems to be calm now and not drawing attention to her. Good thing then; maybe he realized it because she slapped him yesterday.The next thing he looked for was Alexander. She frowned when she saw that the young man’s seat was empty. She looked at the others there, and the young man might have just moved seats. But she was just disappointed, and he wasn’t there. She looked at the clock hanging on the wall. The class will start in just three minutes. She didn’t want to spoil her day so much, so she unfolded the papers and turned on the laptop.“Am I late?” Alexander asked from the doorway, gasping for air.Ava suppressed the smile that wanted to appear on her lips when she saw Alexander. His hair was messy, obviously not combed, but she would admit it that he was still handsome despite his messy look. He looks like a bad boy, but it fits on him. “Next time you will enter earlier,” she sai
It was late at night when the gathering ended. They also slept there in their grandfather’s mansion. This gathering of them rarely happens. He hung out for a while on the terrace facing the garden and thought.“Brother!”He turned to his cousin Terence. This is the eldest son of his aunt Trisha. “Why aren’t you asleep yet?”“I just wanted to ask something.”Alexander stared at his cousin. He is only fifteen years old, and his sibling that is younger than him is older than Terence.“Brother, how old were you when you had sex with a girl?”Alexander seemed to choke on his own saliva and stared at his cousin. “Have you never had sex with a girl?”“Tsk, I’m not like you, who is a womanizer and a pervert.”Alexander grinned and placed his right palm on his cousin’s shoulder. Like him, Terence is also a big man. There’s no mistaking him as a teenager. “You want me to teach you how to please a woman?”“You think I can do it at this age?” Terence looked doubtful.“Of course! I was only fourte
The whole family is complete in Travis’ old mansion. His grandchildren are also complete because it’s their grandma’s birthday. There are guests, but only close friends and relatives. This is exactly how Shaina’s birthday is, and she hasn’t liked many people celebrating her birthdays ever since.“Grandma, happy birthday! I’m sorry I’m a little late.” Alexander kissed his grandmother’s forehead.Shaina smiled and hugged her grandson. “It’s fine, grandson, and I know you’re a young man now, so it’s normal that you’re doing something else.”Alexander grinned, and his grandmother really knew him.“But what I heard is that you have fenced a woman in at your university, so you entered there even though you didn’t have to?” Travis said, sitting in a wheelchair.Alexander scratched his neck and looked shyly at his grandfather. When it comes to women, his grandfather was strict, and for him, he became rebellious.“Is she the one who will make you wiser?” Travis asked.“I guess I got karma from
“Go away, and maybe someone else will see us.” She pushed the young man away.Alexander sighed as he watched the girl closely. “I will sleep in your place again later, and maybe that drug addict will try to harm you again tonight.”“No, you can’t!” She refused, shaking her head slowly, which darkened the aura of the young man’s face. “Look, maybe someone will recognize you and see you entering my apartment.” She explained to him so as not to get angry with her or misunderstand her refusal.“If I go to another university, will you not stop me from getting close to you?”She was once again confused about what to say to the young man. Because he’s naughty, and she knows that he’ll do what he thinks when she says yes.“But I don’t want to leave you here, especially with that idiot being around you.” Alexander regained his composure when he thought of Brix.She suppressed a smile when Alexander’s face revealed the problem he was thinking about. His forehead was still furrowed as he thought
Ava looked at the person who pulled her in shock, and it almost hugged her.“Are you okay?”She nodded absentmindedly in response to Alexander’s question. He spoke very gently, and it was as if she were an unbreakable crystal from the way he touched her. But when he faced Brix, he suddenly looked like a demon, ready to kill the person in front of him.“Asshole! You really want to get hurt?”Ava quickly grabbed the young man’s arm when he tried to attack Brix. “Please, don’t make a mess, or I might get suspended here!” She pleaded with the young man in a low voice.Brix laughed because Alexander couldn’t rush him. “What? Are you already under the skirt? Is that why she likes you more because she can fit you under her skirt?” He asked insultingly.Ava quickly let go of Alexander and angrily approached Brix. She couldn’t control herself anymore and slapped the man. “You’re not just rude; you have no respect for someone like me! Don’t bring your bad behavior to school because I’m not like
“Are you insulted?” Brix continues to tease Alexander. “Did you know that our dean is married?”Alexander clenched his fist, but he still approached the man with a smile. “It looks like you haven’t brushed your teeth since you got out of jail last night, and your mouth stinks, dude.”Suddenly, the smile on Brix’s lips was erased, and he gave Alexander an angry look. “You animal! So you are the one who sent the police to where I was staying last night?”Alexander grinned and put his hands in both pockets of his trousers. “I can do anything, so don’t try me. I can even take down your father if you fight against me!”Brix’s jaws are clenching even more with anger. His suspicion is clear now. However, he didn’t want to show Alexander that he felt worried because of his threat. Then he laughed because of the last thing he said. “You don’t seem to know my father, and you talk about him just like that?”Smiling, Alexander approached the man and slightly brought his head closer to him before
