"How can we lose her? She's right in front of us! " Alex ruffled his hair in frustration. The police have been contacted and they have provided information. Alex has also mobilized all of his employees to help with the search. They've traced all of Athena's friends and there is no bright spot. After all, Athena didn't have any friends, she was only close to Manda and at this time Manda still couldn't be contacted.
All had been done, but Athena was completely untraceable. She seemed to have vanished on the earth accidentally.
What if someone injures Athena? Alex suddenly felt a deep sense of fear from his heart. No, he couldn't lose Athena! Somehow, at a time like this, Alex just realized that he… he probably had more feelings for Athena.
And now he did not know what kind of fate Athena was and where. What did the kidnapper do to her? Do they want money? If he really wanted money, Alex would give it whatever it was, for Athena's sake.
He stared worr
Athena looked at the woman who was standing with a strange smile at her. The woman was very beautiful, of course, even though she was middle-aged. Her clothes are bright red and her makeup is quite daring with bright colors.By now the female bodyguard had handcuffed her hands on the bed so Athena couldn't move. She just remained helpless under the gaze of that woman."You grew up to be a beautiful little girl, Athena." The woman smiled sweetly while watching Athena's entire appearance.Meanwhile Athena squinted her eyes, why did that woman know her name? And from her words that said Athena grew up to be a beautiful girl ... as if she knew about Athena's childhood.But who is she? Athena didn't even have any memories of this woman. If it's true that this woman knew Athena in her childhood, maybe Athena doesn't remember. Athena forgot all the memories about her childhood, somehow. Her father never asked about it either, as if there was a parapet that close

Madame Sembada arrived early in the morning and they were tensed together in the living room. Manda doesn't seem to wake up, it's still four in the morning after all.“Your mom?” Mrs. Sembada's gaze softened to Gamma, all this time she only knew that Gamma was the son of her business partner. She never knew that Gamma was an adopted child and her biggest surprise was that Gamma was Athena's older brother. “First of all I want to apologize to you. In a way, all of these things that happened that kept you apart from your family were because Jordan, your father, saved Alex from a kidnapping attempt.”Gamma looked away, looking gloomy. "If I may, I don't want to discuss it now," he muttered calmly. "About my biological mother. She is a greedy woman, loves money and will do anything for it. I think she must have received news that Athena was adopted as the daughter of the Sembada family. So that she thought she could take advantage of it. I believe t
When they returned home, Manda was there chatting with Mrs. Sembada in the living room. When she realized that Athena had been brought home by Alex, Mrs. Sembada immediately stood up and greeted Athena.Mrs. Sembada gently embraced Athena. "The police reported that everything was done, thank goodness everything is fine."Manda also stood up and approached Athena and hugged her tightly anxiously. "Athena, thank goodness! I'm so worried." Manda's face was pale, she looked really happy that Athena came home safely. "They won't let me come, so I'm waiting here.""Thank you." Athena smiled softly. She wanted to thank everyone who was worried about her, but right now she is very, very tired.Alex seemed to know that Athena had to rest, he caressed Athena's body. "I'll take Athena to the room to rest first.""Let me." Manda tried to take Athena's hand, but Alex brushed it off."No, thank you for providing support here. Maybe you are also tired and
Long after they had expressed their feelings, Athena raised her head and looked at Gamma. Her eyes were wet with tears, but then Gamma rubbed them with his fingers, lovingly."Is Rose our real mother?" Athena remembered the beautiful woman who always dressed up and went to parties, was never at home and left Athena and little Gamma in the hands of the servants. She knew that her mother used to ignore them, but she did not think that her mother would kidnap her just for the sake of wealth."She's not a mother with a heart." Gamma frowned sadly. "You know why I hate women? Because I hate her. She sold me just for money to have fun abroad."Athena covered her mouth with her fingers, she never expected her mother to be that cruel, that day she and Gamma were separated by force. Athena thought that her mother really wanted to bring Gamma, but it turned out that her mother only considered Gamma as an asset that could bring her money.Alex, who had been silent a
"Well, let's just forget about Manda. Indeed, this time you chose the wrong friend because only she who wants to be friends with you, but take it easy Athena, later when you become my wife, there will be many who are competing to be your friends.""What?" Gamma and Athena exclaimed simultaneously, while Alex looked at Gamma with determination."You can have Athena, Gamma. But soon, I will marry her as soon as Athena graduate and bring her back to my house."Athena chuckled when she saw Gamma and Alex staring at each other. Her heart was filled with feelings of happiness. She has found her love in Alex and she hopes things will go well in the future.Meanwhile Gamma was still frowning at Alex's plan, he narrowed his eyes. "Maybe I will introduce her to handsome men I know. There are many handsome classical musicians who will want to approach Athena, they have no malicious intention of taking my sister away."Alex chuckled, he pulled Athena over to s
Liona is late for work!With a gasp, Liona half ran down the city bus, cursing herself. If only herbody didn't feel so tired, Liona would not have decided to sleep again this afternoon. She thought she only slept for one hour because the drowsiness was so strong. But stupidlyshe forgot to turn on the alarm.When awakened, the sun was already hiding itself behind the horizon, letting the moon take its place. Liona was nearly an hour late for work.Frowning anxiously, Liona imagined how angry the cafe manager was with her. The cafe manager never liked her, somehow. Maybe because Liona was small and considered weak,she couldn't help at the same time if there was heavy work. All this timeshe has always been looking for Liona's mistakes, trying to prove that a woman is not suitable for working the night shift at a cafe.Her breathing was getting more and more gasping because she ran faster. The distance from the bus st
Victor resisted his urge to visit the cafe again. That waitress, unexpectedly, really caught his attention. Makes him want to see her every day. Victor himself did not know what he really felt about the waitress woman. He is cold-hearted, his soul is cruel, so he tends not to care for others. But she was so tiny, so helpless and had to do such a hard job. Victor wonders if the woman has a family or someone else who can take care of her.Out of habit too, Victor gave money to the waitress. He shrugged and felt a little relieved, maybe she could use the money to make ends meet. That big money was only change to Victor, but he knew it meant a lot to her. Suddenly Victor realized ... why did he keep thinking about that woman?Angry, Victor crumpled up the paper work he had been unable to complete, he stared down at the night view of the city from his window. Suddenly his thoughts drifted to his real father out there. He held his breath in a huff. His plan of
Jared picks up Vasha for dinner together. Vasha is as beautifully dressed as possible and is waiting in her wheelchair. They then continued on their way. In the car Vasha turned to Jared with a spoiled gaze."Where are we going, Jared?" she asked tenderly.Jared smiled, his eyes on the road ahead, his expression unreadable. “We're going to eat at one of Jeff's cafes. You don't mind, do you? The food at the cafe is very good and the atmosphere is romantic.”"Will Jeff be there?" Vasha frowned. Surely the atmosphere of a romantic dinner would be ruined if Jeff was there.Jared glanced slightly and smiled. "The cafe belongs to him, maybe he will be there, maybe not."***They then entered the Moon Cafe, a beautiful cafe with green trees that filled its surroundings. The walls are bordered by clear glass, which offers a magnificent view of the garden. The cafe was pretty good, although Vasha was a little disappointed.Don't Je
Jeff knocked hard on Jared's apartment door, and it took him ten minutes to wait for Jared to open the door. His younger brother seemed to have just woken up from his sleep,"What's wrong, brother? Why are you here in the middle of the night? " Jared raised his eyebrows and leaned back, giving Jeff a way in.Jeff walked in and stood in the middle of the room and glared at Jared.
Jared was standing at the door of Vasha's house, waiting. Vasha appeared a moment later and winced when she looked up and saw that it was Jared who had appeared there."What is wrong?" Vasha, of course, was confused, she never thought that Jared would come to see her for a moment. She had tried to catch up with Jared and it turned out that he had never been serious about her. In the end Vasha decided to turn her attention to Jeff, their faces are the same. Even though deep in her heart, she loves Jared more, Jared who laughs easily, Jared in his casual clothes and seductive style that always makes Vasha flutter, and all the very op
"How?" Jeff asked quickly as Frances entered the room. Frances is indeed very handsome, he was Jeff's best friend when he was studying abroad as a chef. Frances is a skilled chef who later developed the entertainment business including salons, boutiques, and bakeries as well as restaurants which mostly built in collaboration with Jeff."She was fascinated by me of course." Frances chuckled, "But it wasn't enough to make her dare to take the decision to cancel the marriage.""You've done everything I told you, haven't you?"“Of course, perfectly. I visited her to her house, brought her favorite lily, she was surprised because I could find out her favorite. Then I told about cats, as you informed that Vasha really likes cats and has dozens of cats in her house. And once again she was flabbergasted because I had so much in common with her. Everything is perfect from dinner, gentle attitude and one hundred percent care. I'm sure her heart has turned away, it's
"You met Deen, right?" Jeff muttered immediately when Jared opened the door to his residence. Then Jeff immediately walked into the house angrily.Meanwhile Jared still put on a relaxed face and smiled mockingly, "Oh my gosh bro, did you order people to follow me?""Not you." Jeff's face was flat, “I told my bodyguard to follow Deen, and he said Deen had lunch with my twin. What do you mean asking her to lunch together? What did you say to her?""Whoa wait ... I'll answer one by one, my brother." But then Jared raised an eyebrow, "If I may know, why are you getting people to follow Deen?""None of your business.""Then I won't reveal any information regarding this afternoon." Jared crossed, defiant.Jeff stared at Jared for a long time with a sharp gaze, then he sighed, "Deen has an ex-fiancé who is chasing her, and I've sorted him out so that he is in a remote place and can't bother Deen anymore. But of course I didn't want to
They do whatever people do to relax on weekends, watch movies, eat, travel. Every second is fun, they chat non-stop, fit perfectly into any conversation and realize that they have a lot in common.Being with Jeff all day long was so fleeting, so much fun.Without realizing it was getting late. As they drove home, Deen leaned back in the passenger seat, staring at Jeff with a smile."Thank you for a very enjoyable day."Jeff turned a little and smiled, "You're welcome, Deen, I'm also happy to be able to spend time with you, it's very fun." The man squeezed Deen's finger with one hand, gently. "Next week we will do it again, OK?""Okay." Deen's chest puffed up with a thick flowery feeling. Oh yes, no! She'd been trying to put a fence on her heart all day, but Jeff had broken through it, leaving her unable to hold her back. Deen seemed to have fallen in love with Jeff.***Vasha was sitting in the car, on the way to the boutique family s
Deen hugged the pillow and contemplated, staring at the outer glass window that reflected the blue sky. Reflecting on the incident earlier.All this time she had always carried her principles strictly, but when she was with Jeff it was as if she had run into everything she believed in. She had never brought a man into her private place, she had never allowed herself to be touched so affectionately, and had allowed herself to be kissed. In fact, there is no bond between them.Deen touched her lips sadly. Is it because of a broken heart that she turned into a cheap woman? A cheap woman who allows herself to be touched by a man without ties?Annoyed, Deen threw the pillow on the floor, sighing loudly. No. This was not her, her feelings for Jeff cannot be described with reason. Deen was never like this before, not even with Cliff.***Jeff looked coldly at the report file in front of him, it was a complete report from his employee in Deen's hometown ab
"I met the girl." Jared had just come over to Moon Cafe, and Jeff met him at his apartment. The man was immediately alert when Jared mentioned 'the girl'.And sure enough, Jared immediately threw up a question that Jeff didn't like at all."Is she the reason you never come to your house again and always stay here?"Jeff put on a hard face, "What do you mean?"“Well, you're acting out of your way, your servants at home say that you never sleep there and always sleep in this cafe. And you also greet that girl." Jared shrugged when Jeff gave him a sharp look, "I got that info from that girl when I bumped into her, she said you greeted her when she sat in that cafe, she said maybe it's cafe culture, the owner greets her customers friendly." Jared's glance turned meaningful, “But we know that isn't true, don't we? You always avoid all your cafe and hotel customers like they are pests, you always hide behind the mysterious owner of the company. You
Vasha smiled as she served the food on the table, assisted by several waiters she put the food for Jeff. Yes. Vasha specially cooks for Jeff tonight, she takes a cooking class to fill her busy life and decides to invite Jeff to taste the results."It smells good." Jeff smiled gently, "Looks like they taught you well." Jeff took the food and tasted it, then rolled his eyes, "And it tastes good too."Vasha chuckled, pulled her wheelchair over and sat across from Jeff, "Are you sure you didn't lie to please me?""Nope." Jeff chewed excitedly, "This dish is really delicious.""Later after we get married, I will cook dinner for you every night." Vasha laughed. "I'll choose a different menu so you don't get bored."Jeff immediately swallowed hard, the food he chewed suddenly tasted like sand when Vasha mentioned marriage, so he had to drink water to help him swallow his food.He tried to keep his face full of smiles so that Vasha didn't notice the
