“Speak!” Travis ordered the man authoritatively while holding the gun tightly.

“My name is Cyrus, sir.”

Travis furrowed his eyebrows and remembered where he had first heard that name. A few moments later he lowered the pointed gun at the man.

“How can I be sure that you are the detective I ordered before?”

“It is not unknown to you that I was involved in the fall of Ben’s car in a cliff. There is no one else who knows I’m still alive, especially your family.”

His eyebrows furrowed even more because Cyrus clearly did not trust his brother and stepmother.

“Sir, before you had an accident, you didn’t even trust your family. The fact that you hired me to investigate a woman you had a one-night stand with is the proof.”

“Then I really sent you to find that woman to marry?”

“I didn’t know that marrying that woman was part of your plan. You only sent me to find the woman because you wanted to know who wanted to ruin your reputation.”

Travis clenched his fist when he realized that he

    Travis carefully observed the woman standing infont of him. He expected her to sign the contract but she was too early. “I’m sorry if I came here early.” Shaina smiled at the young man but she felt uncomfortable by the way the man was looking at her. “Have a seat.” Travis responded formally before motioning for the assistant to exit. “So, are you fine working with your cousin?” Travis asked, making sure. “Yes, of course, sir!” She quickly answered the young man and for a moment she was staring into his strange eyes. The feeling of nervousness in her chest was there again for an unknown reason. “Then, congratulations and good luck!”Shaina accepted the contract she was going to sign. Right after she signed, the man shook her hand. The familiar warmth that came from his palm was rise again, so she was stunned for a moment. If the assistant hadn’t knocked, Travis wouldn’t have been able to let go of the girl’s hand. “Sir, Miss Angeline Monreal is here.” Shaina quickly straightened

    “What’s the result?” Travis asked immediately after answering Cyrus’s call. “Positive, sir. You are taking the wrong medicine. The first one is a type of drug that paralyzes and the other one impairs memory.”Travis clenched his fist as his other hand gripped the cellphone tightly. “I’ll make them all pay!” “Calm down, sir. They shouldn’t find out that you already know about this.”“I want to visit Teddy’s grave.” Travis gritted his teeth as he remembered the former assistant. Eventhough he didn’t recall about him yet, he knew he was one of his confidants. “Not now, someone is following you,” said Cyrus, he’s also tailing Travis’s car.Jomar peeked in the side mirror when he heard what Cyrus said, because the volume of his cellphone was loud. He turned into an alley to confirm if a black car had followed them. He saw another car behind and that was Cyrus.Cyrus darted out of the way when Jomar turned so as not to notice that he was also following Travis’s car as well.“Sir, you’d b

    “Nanny, we need to find him again!” Arriana whispered to Nida. She didn’t want her mother to hear what they were talking about because she might just worry about them.“Looks like they’ve left already, baby,” Nida answered in a whisper, too. “Are you sure that he is really our biological father?” Adrian also asked his sister in a low voice. “Yes, brother! I am one hundred percent sure now. You both have the same eyes, nose, lips and—” “That’s correct!” Nida exclaimed, making Arriana stop from speaking. Arriana was right. It’s just because Nida was suddenly feel awkward earlier to the companion of the man sitting in the wheelchair that is why she didn’t pay much attention to the man Arriana was referring to. Adrian frowned as he waited for what else their nanny wanted to say. “Your sister is right, you really look just like that man!” Nida added.“Then we should find him. But don’t tell Mommy yet.” Adrian smiled just like his twin sister. The three agreed that everything should b

    Travis let Angeline help him move to his bed. He was about to sit on the edge of the bed when the girl’s body unexpectedly gave in. They fell on the bed together and she was on top of him. Angeline’s wide eyes stared at the young man’s face for a moment. She suddenly felt the urge to taste Travis’s lips but she had to hold back. “So-sorry, I guess I’m drunk.” She was about to get up when Travis suddenly grabbed her neck. The next thing he did shocked her system.Travis wants to remember so much that he wants to try to use Angeline. When their lips met there was a vague memory that he was seen again in his head. Right, it was because of the alcohol that’s why he recalled what happened that night. The taste of wine on Angeline’s lips is the reason why he remembered what happened between him and the strange woman. Unfortunately, he could not see the woman’s face in his memory. So far, only the way of returning the kiss to him is in his memory.Angeline did not expect Travis to kiss h

    “Hey, Mr., I’m here to help you!” Travis took a breath and opened his eyes after hearing the last thing the woman said in his dream. The woman’s voice was familiar to him but he could not see her face. He was sure that it was still part of his memory. In his dream, he can still feel the kisses on his lips.“Uhmmm…” Travis turned to his side in shock when he heard the woman’s low moan. He thought he was still dreaming when he saw the figure of a woman. Seeing his bare shoulders made him nervous. The woman was in side view, so he didn’t recognize her right away. Little by little, what happened last night came back to his mind. “Shit, what did I do?” Travis asked himself when he felt that he had no cover on his body, except for the blanket that was draped up to his waist.Angeline slowly moved and faced the young man. When she saw he’s staring at him, she smiled, “Good morning!” “Why are you here in my room?” Travis asked arrogantly eventhough he already had a suspicion of what happen

    “I want you to investigate these two families.” Travis refers to Rex and Angeline’s family. “Of course, as you wish, sir.” After collecting the contents of the folder, Cyrus left immediately as Travis’s assistant is coming. When Johnny arrives, he immediately brings bad news. “Sir, I heard some people talking about your status. They’re asking if you still deserve your position now that you have amnesia. They also thought that Sir Joshua should be put in the position of the chairman when he gets married. ”Travis’s jaw clenched. He knows about such an issue and Martha was right. The board members and shareholders can’t stop discussing about his condition as of now. He knew it wasn’t just because they were worried that the company would collapse when he was in charge. He just has amnesia, but he’s not stupid.“Find out the names of the people behind who are spreading bad things against me.” Johnny swallowed his own saliva. The man’s behavior was really different. He didn’t know how h

    “Daddy!” Curious, Jomar turned to the girl who just spoke behind them. He caught his chest and he thought that the girl was calling him. It’s not that he doesn’t want to have an instant child. But because he didn’t sleep with any woman yet to have an illegitimate child. He finally smiled when he recognized the girl’s face. This is the girl who they saw at the beach the other day.Travis faced the girl because her voice was familiar to him. “Gosh, I found you again! Why didn’t you wait for me on the beach? You’re so hard to find!” Arriana’s lips pouted provocatively.Travis was amused by the girl and even preaching him. If this is indeed his daughter, he can say that her behavior is inherited from him. Will not stop until he gets what he wants or at finding answers for something that is not clear. “Daddy, I drew your face to find you again.” “Really?” Travis asked in disbelief.Jomar was amazed to see Travis smile and manage to entertain a young stranger.

The twins were not around and he knew they were cleaning their body. “Thank you and you took the children out earlier,” said Shaina while removing the stocking that she was worn up to her knees. “That’s nothing.

    “Alexander, enough… uhmmmm!” She tries to stop the young man, but she is unable to push him away from her body. She admitted to herself that his searching kiss was addictive, and his hand caressing her thigh added to the sensation that envelopes her body.When he got tired of the girl’s lips, his kiss crawled down her neck. He knew he would be hanged for what he was doing, but he couldn’t stop himself. Ava is like a drug that made his addiction grow. And for Godsake, even his hands seem to have a mind of their own and know where to touch in the girl’s body. His satisfaction didn’t end there. He wants more; his hand is searching for something.She gasped as her chest heaved when she felt the young man’s hand enter her top clothes. She stopped his hand before it reached her breasts, but she lacked strength. The sensation nearly drowned her.“Shit, why do you still have your period until now?” Alexander complained as if frustrated while gently caressing the young woman’s healthy breasts.

    “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.

    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!

    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.

    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
