Music clanged loudly around him. The air around him was dry and cold, but mingled with the foul smell of the sweat of the crowd dancing madly on the dance floor. Cicero is a small and quiet town. There is only one bar that can be found in this place and it is always the go-to for everyone looking to find solace on a cold and boring night.

"Hey handsome boy, are you alone?"

"You can see for yourself right?"

The man took a sip of his beer from the bottle, looking indifferent to the flirtatious bitch trying to seduce him. He knew for a fact that the bitch only wanted his money. Yeah, just the money. There was no way that woman had not noticed him for three days straight he was here and with a wad of money in his pocket.

"May I sit here?"

"If you like it that way."

He downed his beer again, ignoring the woman beside him who started sniffing his body and fingering his pants, where a wad of cash of his was hidden.

"Want to treat me?"

"You can order whatever you like."

    Her body fell on the soft mattress and bounced for a while. She lay on her back, staring at the ceiling of her room which was decorated with dim yellow lights.

From now on she has to think about her future and her future child. Before deciding to buy this apartment, she had sold her lambo car first. Thanks to the help of her attorney instead of Alexander Sawyer, a very nice new attorney Mrs. Anderson Clopton, she sold her lambo in no time.

    Mila tightened her jacket and walked out of a coffee shop a block from her office, carrying a cup of hot chocolate and a paper bag of tuna mayo and croissants.

    "Finally you're home. Where have you been all this time?" “Felix. What are you doing?" Ezra pushed Felix's chest for blocking his way. Felix acted like a fierce wife waiting for her husband to arrive at the door, folding his arms across his chest. Ezra is disgusted to find Felix interfering in his business all of a sudden. “Hmm, women's perfume? You've been staying with women all this time?" “You are not my mother or even my lover, Felix. So shut up your fucking mouth and don't bother me. I'm in a hurry.” "Where are you going?" "I have to go to the office. There is something I must do.” “Well great. It's better for you to go to the office than you sleep with those sluts.” “Why are you suddenly becoming concerned with who I sleep with?” Ezra stopped in his tracks and pushed Felix's chest fiercely. Felix's body jerked back one step. But Felix just kept quiet and didn't try to fight back. “Because it will make Mila sad. Last night I went to her apartment. "Mila is no longer my

    "What are you doing." Mila turned around and put her hands on her hips in annoyance when Ezra suddenly closed her office door and locked it. He walked over to Mila while shoving his hands in his pockets. "We'll talk. You must have a lot of things you want to ask.” “Since when did you become part of the Light Corp? Is this your idea to cooperate with my company?” “I saw an opportunity that promised huge profits. Having a company that makes a lot of money is good for keeping myself busy in between jobs for my clients.” Ezra smirked sarcastically. “I don't want to hear any nonsense from you, Ezra. Leave me alone. Don't disturb my life again." "We have a new project that will keep us attached." “I will reject this collaboration project. I'd better look for another investor.” "You can't." “Of course I can. I'll talk to Mr. Peterson. Go away.” Mila pushed Ezra's shoulder roughly, and tried to get out of her cramped room.

    “Thanks for the lunch, Jayde.”"You're welcome. I hope you enjoy it and we can have lunch together another time.”"Well of course." But I hope not.Mila pretended to put on a fake smile in front of Jayde and got out of his car. This really sucks because she has to pretend that she's happy. To be honest having lunch with Jayde was great. He is a good and humorous man. It's just that she wasn't comfortable with the gazes of women when they saw her with Jayde. It might just be her feelings, but she felt like a hooker for jumping from one guy to another. Besides that she also thought about the threat that Ezra had left her. She just didn't want Jayde to get in trouble for asking her out to lunch.“Mr. Peterson, wait!”Coincidentally Mr. Peterson was just getting into the elevator and returning to his office after lunch. Mila tried to walk fast to approach Mr. Peterson while supporting her aching hips."What's wrong, Ms. Milla?""Call me just Mila, ok?""Okay. What is it, Mila?"They both

    The bistro is one block from the hospital. The owner is a former five-star hotel chef who is tired of working under the pressure of a grumpy hotel manager. With a little severance pay, he was determined to open this bistro. His motivation was to ridicule the former manager who had mocked him when he decided to resign. But starting a business is not easy at first. He has to work hard to attract customers and think about marketing tactics in order to attract customers to eat at his restaurant. It was only after six months that he was able to bring in a steady number of customers every day. The bistro's most famous dish is the linguini pasta. He developed his own concoction recipe over the years until he found the perfect composition, which all Chicagoans loved. “Two linguini pastas. And for me brandy. What do you want Mila?” “Mix berry juice.” "Very well, your orders will be ready in twenty minutes." The waiter nodded politely and walked quickly towards the fat man with the mustach

Tomorrow she will tell the truth to Mr. Peterson that she could not team up with Ezra Carlos because they were not compatible with each other. Well, that reason is quite sound and will silence Mr. Peterson of any questions as to why she would pass up such a great opportunity for another company that might not be giving her company as big a cash injection as Ezra would.Mila stepped out of the elevator and walked towards her unit. The hallway is a bit quiet because Mila only has three neighbors in this suite. And so far Mila hasn't actually met her three neighbours. She was sure the people living in this apartment must be busy people who probably only needed the apartment as a pl

    Mila walked through the living room towards the front door with her eyes half closed. Her apartment bell rang loudly many times to wake her who fell asleep after breastfeeding Gerrald in her baby room. Luckily, Gerrald didn't wake up because of the sound of the apartment bell that the annoying guest kept pressing repeatedly. "Wait a moment." Mila shouted in annoyance between the sound of the bell that kept echoing around her. Mila quickly pressed the combination numbers on the lock panel and a soft beep sounded at the door. The annoying knocker immediately burst in while growling in annoyance. “Why did you have to change your apartment password? I've been standing outside for half an hour." "I overslept while nursing Gerrald." Ezra's eyes moved down to Mila's blouse button which was not fully buttoned. He looked up briefly to meet Mila's face, then his hands quickly reached for the buttons of the blouse to button. “What are you doing? I can do it myself.” "To shorten the time."

    3 months later The people applauded enthusiastically after the red ribbon for the inauguration of the new office was cut by the main star. Camera flash immediately rained down on his body mercilessly until it felt like he would go blind any minute.

The three months since the shooting incident at Mila's apartment have brought many changes to their lives. Especially now that they have a little man in the middle of their new life. Mila smiled a little at Ezra's figure who was serving the paparazzi who were busy surrounding him. Ezra practically looks like a lump of sugar swarmed by hungry ants. Mila's hands occasionally rocked her stroller when her little one, baby Gerrald, whined a little because of the noise around him. Gerrald was used to the silence in her penthouse. He was rarely exposed to the noise of the paparazzi who would hunt h

    Ezra moved warily to protect Mila behind his back. He cursed many times for not incapacitating Jonas first before discussing things with Mila. "But what did you come into my apartment for?" Jonas smiled wryly. He pretended to pat his denim jacket as if it was dusty. Jonas has a bruise on his right jaw from Ezra's precise fist that landed there shortly after he snuck into Mila's apartment. "To get revenge on you." Jonas took a gun out from under his boots and pointed it at Mila and Ezra. “Drop your weapon or you will regret choosing to do that.” “Are you scared, Ezra? You're not the only one with a gun. Even I have it too. You have destroyed my plans. I thought you were already rotting in hell, but you tricked us all.” “Glad that you were stupid enough and duped. You have terrorized Mila and disturbed her life.” "Because of you. I had forgotten about my stupid desire to take revenge on you when you were reportedly drowned in the sea. But who would have thought that you would ri

    "Ssshhh... Don't scream, Mila!" "Who are you?" Mila's body froze when an arm stretched forward and hugged her chest until her shoulders pressed against the man's chest. From his voice and body aroma the man was very similar to Ezra. But it is not possible. Ezra is dead. Even the police had given her an official statement that the rescue team had not been able to find Ezra's body that had fallen into the sea. "You can't possibly forget me. You know me so well, Mila.” "Ezra is dead. Don't try to be Ezra in front of me." Mila's voice trembled as she tried to bully the man. In fact, Mila almost fell to the floor if the man's strong arms didn't support her shoulders. "Look at me." Mila's body was rotated one hundred and eighty degrees until now Mila was facing a man whose face was very similar to Ezra's. Her face stiffened as she stared at the man's face. Mila wanted to push the man's chest away, but her body couldn't move because she was too shocked by what was happening before her

    "Wait here. I won't be long." Meyer stopped his car in the middle of the forest and let Ezra get out of his car to walk along the path in the middle of a lonely forest. "Good luck. Make Felix pee his pants seeing your ghost.” Meyer laughed loudly before Ezra slammed his car door loudly. Ezra walked to his lonely hunting house in the middle of the forest. He had seen Mila come with Jonas crying hysterically in Felix's arms. Apparently Felix didn't wait until the next morning to tell Mila that he had fallen overboard and might have died. His palms itched to punch Jonas when he saw him put his arm around Mila's shoulders. But luckily Felix chased him away quickly and Mila didn't try to keep Jonas from staying in his house. Ezra decided to make a detour through the back of his cabin. He saw the kitchen light was still on and saw Felix's silhouette standing by the sink. Looks like Felix and Mila are talking about something serious. He then hid behind the firewood storage rack, waiting

    The high and ferocious waves rocked his boat so many times that he couldn't even sit still in the boat. His face was wet and his lips were twitching coldly because of the splash of sea water that was almost below freezing. The buoys and layers of clothing that wrapped around his body couldn't block the super cold sea breeze that was blowing very hard around him. Only a madman would go out to sea in the midst of a raging storm like this one. And damn that crazy person is him. Meyer repeatedly looked up at the sky, hoping that a violent storm would not come soon because he was still bobbing in the middle of the sea. It would take him at least another twenty minutes at the earliest to get to the beach and quickly find a warm place to keep him from catching frostbite in the morning. At first Meyer thought his ship was being hit by waves again. He heard the sound of water hitting solid objects, and then the boat shook slightly. He had almost given up on surviving in the middle of the sea

    "Thanks Felix. I don't know where else to go but here. My apartment is not a good choice when I have problems with Jonas.” Mila took a sip of her hot chocolate, letting the delicious chocolate liquid flow down her throat and calm her down. She was on the verge of deep frustration. “I told you that his intentions weren't pure.” Felix took a place in front of Mila while looking at her concerned. "I know it. But I don't think he will force me to accept his proposal. He's crazy. He even screamed in the restaurant and made us both a spectacle.” "Relax Milla. You can't be stressed. Remember what Doctor Rosaline said at the last check-up." Mila sighed and nodded. "I remember. My blood pressure is very low and I have to have a transfusion if it stays low.” “Good girl. Better forget about Jonas. You have to distance yourself from him." "I have done. But he often comes to my apartment, helping me organize my future baby's room. How could I possibly ignore his kindness.” "Now he won't c

    "Thanks for inviting me to dinner, Jo." "You're welcome. Please sit down Mila.” Mila smiled faintly and pulled the chair in front of her. Jonas looked like he was about to pull out a chair for her, but Mila refused and said that pregnant women are not disabled. "How's the little one?" "Very good. Well it's been seven months, two more months before his birth. Really really fast.” Mila sighed softly. "I'm grateful. I'm glad to see you're fine. The last few months have been tough for you." "Very tough." Mia smiled weakly. It was a miracle that she survived two more months without Ezra by her side. She had shed tons of tears since the past two months. When finally the rescue team failed to find Ezra and the police officially stated that Ezra was lost due to drowning in the sea. Her legs literally went limp when she received the news. She almost fell to the ground if Felix didn't put his arm around her shoulders and support her limp body. Her heart… she didn't know if her heart had

    Hunter was ushered out of his cage into the courtroom. After a week in jail, now Hunter looks so messy and ugly. His face was pale and shabby. The dark circles under his eyes were very dark. Hunter let his sideburns grow wildly on his face so that he looked like an old hermit who had just been taken out of a cave. Hunter's hands were handcuffed behind his back. Hunter took a deep breath in the scent of the courtroom and felt a tinge of relief that he could finally smell something other than the rotting smell of rotting prison food. Two policemen gently pushed Hunter's shoulders and pressed him to sit on the prison chair. Not many were present at his trial. Hunter didn't even expect anyone to come. But suddenly his eyeballs met Mila's eyeballs who were looking at him gloomily. Mila's face was somber and it looked like she had been wallowing in sadness for so long that there were no traces of joy on her face. Hunter's breath caught when he learned that Mila was present at the trial thi
