Ludwig could not move. It was clear that Christine Michel deliberately wanted to make the resort where Claire worked lose money.

“Let's get out of here!” Christine said.

The old woman even ordered one of her guards, “Tell them we're not staying at this resort. They've kept us waiting too long.”

After mentioning the order, Christine and her entourage left The Himalaya Resort without waiting for Claire's arrival.

In the car, Ludwig said, “Have you had enough of getting your siblings into trouble, Jasmine?”

Jasmine replied casually. “My sister, do you mean? I don't have a sister.”

Ludwig gasped.

“You ... are you a demon? You don't recognize Claire as your sister anymore?” Ludwig retorted.

Jasmine smiled wryly, “My family no longer recognizes her as a member of our family, so why would I?”

Ludwig immediately turned his head towards the street because he couldn't talk to his wife anymore.

Either way, he might lose control and do something bad to Jasmine due to his unstoppable irritation

    Claire smiled faintly in response to Felix's remark.However, the beautiful and extraordinarily graceful woman still replied very firmly, “Thank you for your generous offer, Sir.”Felix was almost overjoyed to think that Claire had accepted his offer.Unfortunately, Caire then added, “But I really don't need it, Sir. I can take care of my own business.”Felix was taken aback.“Please excuse me,” Claire excused herself.She walked away, leaving Felix stunned. The man was so amazed by Claire's answer that he was stunned for a few moments until he was finally awakened by his own confidant, Andrew Finn.“Sir, is there something going on?” Andrew asked curiously.Felix suddenly smiled strangely, “Interesting. Very interesting.”Andrew looked even more curious but didn't dare ask any more questions.Felix then walked while being followed by Andrew. Suddenly Felix stopped walking and turned to Andrew, “Andrew, find out about this resort. If there's a possibility to buy it, buy it.”Hearing t

    Claire was silent for a few moments but then she replied to Felix who was waiting for her answer, “Sir, I am not a single woman so I am free to do whatever I want. I can't possibly go to places like that.”Hearing Claire's statement, the handsome man was shocked. It was as if he had just received news that had shaken him.Felix looked so unable to accept that fact.“What does Miss ... you have a family?” Felix asked.Claire only replied with a smile which Felix believed that she had indeed stated that she was married.Felix really never thought that the woman he thought was still very young was married. This was one of the things that made it so difficult for Felix to believe in her. However, Felix could not deny the fact and was finally forced to believe what he had heard.Because, even though Felix was a player and had slept with so many women that he couldn't count how many women had climbed into his bed, Felix still maintained one principle.That principle was that he would never

    Helen could only nod her head and no longer asked her brother.Helen believed Felix never denied what he said because that was what his parents had taught him when they were alive.In the afternoon, Felix returned to the park where he usually met the little boy who had made him feel so happy while in the country.The man even arrived there first and immediately sat down in a garden overlooking the shady trees.Just 10 minutes later, Sean arrived carrying two medium-sized plastic bags and walked cheerfully towards Felix.“What are you carrying?” Felix asked the little boy.“Toys. Do you want to play with me again?” Sean asked.Without hesitation Felix nodded his head, “Of course, what are you here for if not to play with you?”Sean immediately smiled widely and opened the toy right there. Felix, who had gotten used to the boy's presence, felt closer to him every day, so he always felt like meeting the boy.Sean himself felt so happy because he had a playmate when he had to wait for his

    As a good boy, Sean also kept his promise and never said the things that had been whispered to him by Felix to anyone.The little boy didn't even tell his mother and just smiled happily when his mother asked him to go to bed at night.On the other side of the world, Michel and Bayer's family were holding a celebration of Ludwig Beyer's success in managing his own business.The celebration was held in a very luxurious hotel and was attended by many business people in Indonesia.All members of the two families were present and were seen wearing big smiles as they greeted the guests.It was also seen on the lips of Jasmine Michel who was seen accompanying her husband wherever Ludwig went.Jasmine was currently standing next to Ludwig to welcome some of the city's top CEOs.“Besides your business running so smoothly, you are also so smart to have chosen one of the daughters of a famous businessman as your spouse,” one of the guests said, which instantly made Jasmine smile widely.Ludwig re

    Ludwig just realized that he had really made a big mistake when he decided to marry Jasmine.The woman who had been his wife for several years was a very stubborn woman and had a very different nature than her brother.However, he no longer wanted to feel pressured by his wife so he calmly retorted, “If you dare to divulge all the secrets of our marriage then I won't keep our marriage either.”Jasmine widened her eyes, staring in disbelief at her husband. “What do you mean?”“Divorce,” Ludwig replied.Jasmine's lips instantly trembled when she heard it, “You're joking right? There's no way you're going to do that. You can't divorce me.”“Why not, Jasmine?” Ludwig replied still with a very calm expression.Jasmine said back with her chin up, “Because your family depends on my family. My family saved your family's honor from destruction. Your mother's father would never allow you to divorce me.”Ludwig was silent for a few moments and that gave Jasmine the upper hand.She believed that h

    Oh, no. Claire forced herself to smile and then pinched her own cheeks to wake up.She really thought she might be dreaming or perhaps daydreaming.There was no way that Felix Homann was the CEO of the resort where he earned money for his son.It was simply impossible and there was only a fraction of a percent chance that it could happen.However, Claire felt a twinge of pain as she tugged at her right cheek and had to gasp in shock when she discovered that it was indeed a reality that she had to accept.The sound of applause and noise soon filled the building. Claire also joined in the applause even though in her heart she was extremely agitated.“Wow! That's amazing!” “We are so lucky to have a CEO like him!”Others also responded, “Under his leadership, our resort will definitely progress further.”“Yeah, he's known for his cold hands in the business world so there's no doubt about that,” another added.Jason, the staff standing right beside Claire also chimed in, “But, don't yo

    When Andrew was about to open his mouth to answer Claire's question, Felix suddenly raised his hand and asked his trusted man to be quiet.Claire immediately turned to Felix who then said, "You will be my personal secretary."For a moment Claire looked speechless but after she understood what Felix had just said, Claire widened her eyes, "What do you mean? I am to be your personal secretary?""Yes."Claire couldn't believe it but the man who had become the CEO of the Himalaya resort changed again, "You're not cut out to be an assistant manager and that's evident from the fact that you've failed to overcome previous problems."Indeed when Felix understood the nature of Claire's problem, he felt he had found a solution that would enable him to bring Claire to her knees.He did not know the background that made Claire look unprofessional when serving the Michel family.But he did not care about that reason because all he could think about at the moment was how he could get close to Clair

    "What do you have to fear? Even if someone recognizes you, they won't be able to do anything," Felix said.The man was now truly a CEO and not a man pursuing a woman he wanted.Felix Homann was known to be able to separate the world of work and his personal affairs.If he was in a situation where he had to bring out his ability to deal with various problems in his company then it was certain that the man would put his own personal problems aside."Yes, Sir." After all, Claire had no choice but to obey the CEO's orders."Let's go in!" Felix called and she quickly followed behind him along with Andrew.Once the stranger had arrived at the lobby, he was immediately greeted by several staff members.This was of course because Felix's appearance was so convincing that he was treated much better than the usual guests."Sir, then please come with us!" a very pretty female staff member said.Claire suspected that the woman was in the same position as she had been because obviously one of the

    Hearing the statement from Claire, of course, immediately made everyone in the place surprised.Jasmine was the first to open her mouth. "What did Sister Claire say? Claire is Felix's wife? How can that be?""And what did you say? Managing director? What does that mean again?" Jasmine asked.Claire really didn't expect to be dealing with her sister like this again. Really, not once had she ever thought of hurting her family.However, she had to do it. "Didn't you hear what I said, Jasmine? I'm ... Felix Homann's wife. Is it not clear?" Claire asked.Jasmine was stunned. She was still having trouble accepting the fact but before she could reply to her brother, Claire quickly said, "I'm the managing director who will replace daddy."She immediately turned to her papa and looked saddened at having to say that, but Claire chose to steal his heart and ignore his empathy a little at this point.Henry and Lindsay were also speechless with shock while Jasmine and her husband stood frozen in

    Fear immediately seized Liana. It was clear that not too far in front of her eyes was a scene where a family loved each other. It was clear she had lost long before she even fought for Felix Homann's heart. She had lost badly. It was impossible for her to win Felix's heart.The woman couldn't even think of what to do next because she was so shocked."Gosh, how could I be so stupid? Why don't I know anything when everything is laid out so clearly?" The woman muttered to herself but not wanting to be seen there by Ananta, she immediately chose to leave the place in a hurry."Uh, why her?" a prospective employee asked.One of her friends responded, "She must have been really shocked. Too embarrassed maybe, so he chose to leave.""Yes, he was so full of himself, I was surprised. How can anyone be that confident?"Luckily, Liana immediately found a taxi in front of the Himalaya Resort and got into it."Oh, what a fool you are, Liana!" Liana said to herself who had now realized her folly

    Felix Homann then immediately told the story of how he had met Claire in a nightclub by accident.He then went on to tell the story of how Claire had been kicked out of the family and had to live alone with their son until she met Felix after many years.Upon hearing the story, Helen silenced herself in shock. Disbelief immediately overcame her."Felix, you're not making up a story, are you? This isn't a story in a novel, is it?" Helen said, still finding it hard to believe.Felix said after a sigh, "Helen, of course it's real. Why would I bother making up a story? Do you think I have so much free time to read novels and then tell them to you?"She really didn't think her brother would think such a ridiculous thing.Helen was speechless for a few moments.She then watched her brother so calmly tell her about her plan to destroy the Michel family."No wonder Claire is such a strong and powerful woman. She's been through so much that it makes her stronger than most women. Oh, I can't im

    "Sure, sure, let's talk," Desta replied as if she got what she wanted. Haruka never thought that a man who she thought was very stiff like Andrew could be hooked by what Desta did.In fact, some time ago Andrew still seemed to dislike him and was even very disturbed if he was around that person. At first Haruka thought that Andrew most likely did not like her at all. However, seeing the way Desta teased the man and the expression shown by Andrew, Haruka really wanted to believe that Andrew had feelings for her.Hope you really like me, stiff! Haruka thought to herself.Andrew then invited Desta to talk at the edge of the building so that no one would disturb them."Alright, now we're alone. What did you want to talk to me about?" Desta asked with a casual look.Andrew was surprised to see someone so calm when meeting his ex-girlfriend that he even hugged her."Sir, it's not like you and Haruka's relationship is over. Is it appropriate for a former lover to hug his ex in front of ev

    The Himalaya Resort employees, who had known Claire for a long time, looked confused.However, it was Sherly who answered one of the employees, "What's not possible? Now that we see that Mr. Felix is married to Claire, all things are possible, including Sean who turns out to be their biological son."The woman was also looking at how similar Sean and Felix were so she thought anything was possible.Alexa responded as well, "Right. I just realized that their faces are so similar, as if Sean is a younger version of Mr. Felix. Yes, no?"It was not only Alexa and Sherly who supported Jason's opinion, but then Cindy also thought, "You're right. Sean is most likely Mr. Felix's biological son. Same hair, same eye color. And look at their smiles, they're exactly the same."She then continued quickly, "If you all remember, when Sean was in the accident, Mr. Felix looked very worried. Yes, at that time we couldn't have suspected anything because he was proba

    Felix also smiled mockingly, "I think he is indeed digging his own grave."Arsen nodded his head, "I agree. But, don't you think actually that woman uh I mean Jasmine is very depressed right now?""Just imagine, she's been married for years to Ludwig Beyer and hasn't gotten pregnant yet. How can she not be stressed?" Arsen added."What do I care, he's been making my wife suffer for a long time, why would I feel sorry for someone who doesn't even think about his brother at all?" Felix retorted, sounding cruel but he really didn't care one bit.Arsen replied, "But, Felix. If Claire hadn't been kicked out of her house, wouldn't you not have met her too?"Felix was silent. It was really annoying to be associated with that."My meeting Claire has nothing to do with what Jasmine did. She and her family should pay for what they've done," Felix said as if there was no way he could change his mind.The man did now have a warmer attitude but that didn't mean he would forgive anyone who had hurt

    "Stop it, Felix! Stop joking around and get some sleep!" Claire said who then pretended to look around rather than face her husband.The woman just didn't want to look so embarrassed in front of her husband so she chose to quickly pull the blanket over her body.She even lay on her side and turned her back to Felix so he couldn't see her flushed face.Felix thought his wife was adorable. "Claire, are you teasing me, my dear?"Claire was so startled by her husband's words that she was forced to turn her head and found him looking at her with a mischievous smile.Before she could reply to Felix, he had locked his lips with hers and was not letting her escape.Claire did not resist but sometimes pushed her husband a little further away because she needed to catch her breath.Felix smiled with satisfaction as he pulled his lips away from hers. His satisfaction was because he had succeeded in making his wife's lips swollen and

    Claire punched her husband on the shoulder and Felix laughed softly."What are you talking about? I don't want to have any more children," Claire said, not wanting to look at her husband who she knew was teasing her.Felix then nodded his head, as if immediately understanding what his wife meant. "I know, my dear Claire. After all, Sean just had a full set of parents. I also want him to feel our love longer." He said as he looked at his wife even though Claire did not see him at all because she was quite embarrassed."But, that doesn't mean I don't want to have another child, darling. I want to, Claire. Just maybe not right now," Felix added.Claire was grateful that Felix thought like her. She had initially been worried that Felix would want a child soon. Of course, this would be hard for Sean. "That's what I was thinking too. And if someday it turns out that I'm given the opportunity to get pregnant again, that's fine." Claire replied by daring to look at her husband."Oh, of cour

    Claire could only answer with a smile.How could she not come? While she was the bride of their boss?"Wow! I wonder who Mr. Felix's bride-to-be is?" Sarah said, one of the employees who seemed so happy to gossip about their super-handsome boss.But basically, so many people like to gossip about their boss because Felix Homann is so mysterious.Another person replied, "It must be an extraordinary beauty because there's no way Mr. Felix, whose good looks are clearly beyond the limits of the human mind, would choose a mediocre woman." Jason shook his head, disagreeing, "I don't agree with that at all. Well, as men we don't just look at people from their physical appearance.""That's just you. Mr. Felix would definitely choose the pretty one," the others said, rejecting Handi's idea.Sarah said quickly, "But I think what Jason said has a point.
