Adrian found his sister crying in the living room. It was just early when she called and asked him to fetch her. She said that she wanted to go home to their parents’s house.“Brother!” Natasha’s impostor hugged Adrian, crying.“What happened, and you’re crying? Where is Dark? Why is he letting you cry?” Adrian asked angrily and looked at the woman sitting on the other sofa.“Brother, why is it like that? When it happened that I fell in love with him, he looked for another woman instead.” The girl’s tears could no longer be controlled, and her hug at Adrian became even tighter. “Calm down first, and it’s enough to cry. Tell me what that man did to hurt you.”“Sir, I’m really sorry, and it’s my fault. I didn’t even think that my niece could do this despite the kindness of Natasha and your family to us.” Adrian looked at Dalia, who spoke. Her niece is not there. “Where’s Cherry?”“Natasha saw her in Dark’s room.” Patricia responded shyly and kept her head down, trying to suppress the
Patricia was restless in her room. She doesn’t know why Dark is so protective of Natasha when her face is different and she doesn’t remember anything. Fortunately, the real Cherry acted again, so the doctor is now taking care of her instead of her niece. A few moments later, Patricia was startled from her seat when someone knocked.“Ma’am Dalia, Sir Dark is calling you.” The maid called outside Patricia’s door. Patricia quickly stood up and opened the door. “They are now in the living room waiting for you,” added the assistant.Patricia passed the assistant without saying a word. Before going down the stairs, she looked at Dark’s room. She had wanted to open it and rush in on her so-called niece, but there was a man standing at the door as a guard. Dark really secured the woman and didn’t even want anyone to approach her, not even her. She looked at the stairs when she heard two men arguing.“Do you still know what you’re doing, Dark? If something bad happens to my sister because of
Dark grinned as if entertained by Dalia. “Perhaps you forgot that this is my house and your niece entered my room?”Patricia was shocked and embarrassed by what the young man said. So what he did to her niece could not be called rape. Another thing is that she will definitely not be able to convince her niece to side with her to prosecute Dark.“Since Cherry is your niece, I will let you stay here if you want. But from this day on, she is under my care. I don’t trust you, and you might make her take medicine to prevent her from getting pregnant. So from now on, I don’t want you to take care of her food or drink.”Patricia’s eyes widened, and she shook her head. As if Dark told her, yet not directly, that he wants to have children with Cherry.“If you don’t like my policy in my household, you are free to leave, but you can’t take Cherry with you,” was Dark’s finality.“How about my sister?” Adrian coldly asked Dark.“She will stay here too. Don’t worry; nothing will change. She is stil
“Adrian, I know that you are angry with my niece now because of what she did. But please, help us get out of here to get away from Dark. I don’t want my niece to get hurt because there is no future between them and Dark.” Patricia begged the young man. Adrian clenched his fist, and the woman was obviously desperate to get her niece away. “I’ll think about it.”Patricia stared at Adrian in disbelief, and that was not what she expected the man to answer.“I can’t fight against Dark now, but I will watch over your niece’s every move.”“Wait! Are you saying that let’s just let Dark’s fall for my niece and let your sister get hurt?” She asked the young man in disbelief. “What’s wrong with you?” Adrian asked the woman, irritated. “Are you questioning my decision?”Patricia was nervous, and the man’s face showed a look of irritation toward her. “Not really. But as a woman, I don’t want anyone to get hurt just because of one man.”“Don’t worry about my sister, because Dark won’t leave her a
The next day, Dark left the house early, but he made sure someone would watch over Cherry. He saw Dalia already awake, and she greeted him.“You’re leaving? Aren’t you going to wait for my niece to wake up?” Patricia asked, smiling. “I have an important meeting today, and I might be home later tonight. You guys will take care of her and Natasha as well.”Patricia smiled secretly, and Dark entrusted the two girls to her. It’s in her favor that Dark isn’t there, and she can make her next plan against the real Natasha.Dark gave Doke a meaningful look before getting into the car. He left him there, and he had assigned someone else to watch outside.When Dark arrived at the office, Adrian was already there. It looks like he didn’t sleep well and woke up early.“Tell me everything,” Adrian ordered Dark coldly.“What do you mean?” He also ignored Adrian’s question. “When do you intend to tell me what you suspect?” The aura on Adrian’s face darkened, and he was still angry since last night
Patricia almost turned pale when she saw what the woman with her niece was wearing. The real Natasha was obviously crying and looking upset at her. “What happened, and why are you with the police officer?” Dark worriedly held the girl by both shoulders. Cherry couldn’t stop herself from hugging Dark. She was very scared earlier when her aunt left her. She believed that Mr. Ching would permanently destroy her femininity if she didn’t escape from him. “Cherry, what happened? Come here, and Natasha might see you hugging Dark.” Patricia quickly approached the girl and tried to take her by the arm, but Dark shook her hand. “Don’t touch her! You’re a careless aunt!” Dark snorted angrily at the woman. Patricia took a step back and was scared by the anger in Dark’s eyes. “Sir, I took her here, and she told me this address when I asked her,” said the police officer to Dark. “Thank you very much, officer. I want to know what happened and who wanted to hurt her.” Dark refers to Ch
Patricia stood up quickly after being knocked to the ground when Dark faced her. She now thinks of him as a demon. She was afraid that he might hurt her too because she left Cherry earlier. “From now on, you can’t go near Cherry!” Dark said at Dalia firmly. “No,” Patricia said, shaking her head. “She can’t possibly like you, especially, and I already know how evil you are! I won’t let someone like you marry my niece because you’re a criminal!” She objected bravely. The strange smile formed on Dark’s lips again as he approached the woman. “I don’t care, even if you are Cherry’s mother. She belongs to me, and I can make you follow that man if you disobey me. Is that clear?” Patricia’s lips parted, and her eyes avoided him. She thought that she was the worst and merciless in doing evil to others. But when she sees Dark now, she seems to want to repent that she let the real Natasha get close to him. She should have listened to what Grace had instructed her that the two should not
Cherry started to cry as vague memories came back to her mind. She knew it wasn’t just hallucinations. After Dark entered the library, he quickly hugged the girl. “Baby, what’s wrong?”Cherry started crying even more when she could sense the concern in Dark’s voice.“Shhhh, don’t be afraid. Come and don’t force yourself if you have a headache.” Dark grabbed the girl and took her to his own room instead of hers.“What happened? Why did I hear my niece crying?” Patricia asked and blocked Dark’s path. Dark tried to control his anger when he saw Dalia. If he didn’t want to know who else was her accomplice, he would have flayed her alive. “Cherry, what’s your drama again, and you’re going to be carried by Dark? Aren’t you ashamed? Maybe Natasha will come suddenly and see you.”“You don’t have to scold her because I’m the one who wants to carry her. She has a headache, so she’ll sleep in my room first.”“What? You need to take your medicine then.” Panicked, Patricia returned to her room
