Elice hated going to the hospital. Even more so when Garrett was the reason for her visit.

Feelings of worry and fear mixed together. Mixed and clouded Elice's mind. She couldn't be calm. Not until she met Garrett.

"Garrett."

When Elice entered the hospital room and found Garrett lying in bed without any injuries, relief came. The tension left Elice. Almost along with what little energy she had left.

"Elice."

Elice's body nearly collapsed. But Rosaline, who came with her, acted quickly. She caught Elice's body just in time.

Elice looked desperate. If before her legs had been able to kick strongly to catch Garrett as quickly as possible, now it was the opposite. Her legs felt shaky and weak as she walked.

Elice approached Garrett. Her hand was raised. It landed on Garrett's cheek. And a tear fell down his cheek.

"I'm sorry."

Rosaline made sure Elice could stand on her own. She bowed her head politely. Then, understandingly, she decided to leave. Closing the door from the outside. Leave

    An article caught Farrah's attention that morning. As she slowly opened her eyes and shook off the remnants of her deep slumber, a headline on her phone's alert stopped her in her tracks.Originally, Farrah had intended to start her day right away. A little exercise followed by a leisurely breakfast. But because of that one name, her routine would have to wait.It was the name Morales that caught Farrah's attention. It forced her to open the message immediately and read the news. An article about an accident that had befallen the heir to the conglomerate family that owned the largest coal mining company in Oceana.Farrah was stunned. When she finished reading the entire article, her hand slowly dropped, accompanied by a furrow in her forehead. It wouldn't be surprising if a thought popped into her head and a name came to mind.Ariel?The sound of the bathroom door interrupted Farrah's train of thought. She turned to find her husband, who had just finished showering. She quickly put do

    Without the slightest hesitation. Not once did Farrah's eyes blink. She shook her head, expressionless."I won't stop until it's all done."Kurt had expected this. But he had hoped."Enough. I don't think we need to talk about this anymore. I won't drive you to the airport. There's something I have to do."Farrah sighed deeply. Standing up. Getting ready to leave. But she took a moment to speak again."Later. One day you'll understand that what I'm doing is for all of us. For us. Especially for Ariel."Because in Farrah's mind, that was all that mattered. That she wanted Ariel to have everything. That everything she had would eventually end up in Ariel's hands."This is for Ariel's happiness," Farrah whispered. "For the happiness of the only child I have. I won't let her suffer as I have."Suffer? The very word made Kurt grimace. Was Farrah so blind that she couldn't see the abundance of blessings she had?So, when Farrah turned around. Planning to leave. Kurt's voice was heard."For

    About thirty minutes later, Carolus was behind the wheel, driving the four-wheeler out of the police compound. His earlier meeting with Bald meant that he had to meet Garrett immediately.Carolus' arrival at Garrett's office was immediately greeted by Amber. The secretary immediately escorted Carolus to Garrett's room."How did it go? Were you successful?" Garrett's question was filled with hope. It was understandable, considering that over the past few days, Garrett had demanded that Carolus do whatever it took to resolve their investigation into Daphne's accident.Fortunately, Garrett's hope was fulfilled this time. In the form of a firm nod, without a hint of doubt, from Carolus. Immediately, a spark of excitement appeared in Garrett's eyes."I managed to get Bald's confession, sir. Along with the motive that drove him to it."The answer, of course, was money. Something he needed to meet his only daughter.When Garrett instructed Carolus to investigate Bald's family, the man realiz

    Farrah's smile widened. Now, instead of continuing her dinner, she was intrigued by something else. It seemed like a waste if the dinner ended up being just a regular meal.There was no one else. No Kurt to occupy himself with unnecessary lectures. It was just the two of them. A mother and son with a common goal.Farrah put her spoon and fork down on the side of her plate for a moment. She picked up a napkin and dabbed at her lips for a moment."You should have been more careful and precise, Ariel."Ariel clenched her hands on the table. With a slightly furrowed brow, he squinted at his mother."Did you know, Ma?"A small chuckle escaped Farrah's lips. She chuckled briefly, looking down at her only son. But she didn't answer."How?" Ariel asked again."Ariel, Ariel."Farrah sighed her son's name and looked at Ariel with amusement. And instead of answering, she turned the question around."How could Ia not know? You are my child. Whatever concerns you, I surely know."Ariel fell silent

    "What do you think. It looks like we're going to have to postpone our plan to get rid of Elice. I heard that—"Ariel listened to the recording of a conversation between Farrah and Teddy. Because of the uncomfortable feeling he had had when he met Teddy earlier, Ariel could not resist the urge to find out what his mother and the man were talking about. He felt restless. His instincts were warning him. And he would listen carefully to all these recordings. He would not miss a word of the conversation.There was a short pause in Farrah's voice. Ariel blinked. He began to think, but a moment later his mother's words were heard again."That there's instability at Pacific Energy. According to what Garrett said, some people seem to be uncomfortable because Pacific Energy is now completely dependent on Garrett. Because as everyone knows. Garrett was able to be calm all the time at the peak of Pacific Energy clearly because of Mom's influence. However, people still respect the late Mama.”"So

    Another fact that shocked Farrah. Her eyes widened. But she quickly shook her head."M-maybe he wanted to know Garrett's condition after the accident. Wanted to know right away if Garrett was dead or not."Farrah was already shaken enough by the fact that Ariel, her only biological son, was tapping her. Let it be no more than that. Sad, but Farrah hoped that Ariel's actions would stop there.Teddy could understand. But there was nothing he could do. Because Farrah's hope clearly clashed with reality."I can assure you that Mr. Ariel's planned accident would not harm Mr. Garrett, madam."Farrah closed her eyes. Her face suddenly hardened; her hand clenched tightly. A snarl echoed in her throat."Why?"Farrah opened her eyes. They showed an indescribable anger. Asking Teddy, it was clear how Farrah's face then turned red."Why did Ariel go to see Garrett? What did they talk about? And why did Ariel pretend to hurt Garrett?!"Teddy seemed calm even though Farrah kept asking him in a high

    After Elice retired from Metro, Garrett almost never found his wife busy with early morning preparations. But this day was an exception. Like him, Elice was already looking dapper. Wrapped in elegant clothes.In a soft pastel green with a combination of blazer and pleated skirt, Elice looked graceful and charming. Even her earrings, black heels, and the small bag she chose complemented her look perfectly.Elice chose a retro hairstyle for her long hair. To create an elegant look that would certainly suit the formal event, her hair was pulled back into a classic bun. A very appropriate choice to enhance her appearance. Not only beautiful, but also giving a polite image."Are you ready?"Garrett asked. Elice turned to him. She nodded."According to the schedule Mr. Carolus gave me," Elice remembered. "It looks like I'll be home before five in the afternoon."Garrett nodded. He had seen Elice's schedule for the day. Not only the dedication of the new orphanage, but also several other pla

    Amidst the drizzle of raindrops, there was a slender fingered hand that welcomed the droplets. Gathering them deliberately to feel the chill that accompanied the wetness against the skin.Chill.

That there would always be a time for every moment.There is a beginning. And there is an end. And for the chill that pervades now, it will end.

    Farrah fell silent. Her face hardened and remained unmoved as the sad question was directed at her."Are you satisfied now?" Kurt stared at Farrah, his face and eyes red. Tears dried on his cheeks. "Are you happy now?" Kurt asked again. "Will you be satisfied only when Ariel is dead?"Farrah's breath caught in her chest for a moment. Her chest rumbled. Was Kurt really going to accuse her like that?"Kurt."Kurt's hand gripped Farrah's upper arm. He squeezed it with the fury of a father who had lost his son. Anger and sadness collided in his eyes."I told you, Farrah. I told you repeatedly. And now you see the consequences of your actions?"Kurt's shoulders trembled with painful sobs. Regret quickly filled his heart and mind. If only he could have stopped his wife. If only he had stayed there. If only. If only. If only.But it was all too late. There was nothing more Kurt could do."You killed our son, Farrah. You killed Ariel!"Farrah blinked. A tear that had been there for who knew h

    "Ariel. Ariel. I beg you, Ariel."Elice shook Ariel's body. But Ariel didn't move at all. Completely still."Ariel, please."Elice let go of Ariel's hand. Just to touch his face. Just to feel that there was no feeling there.Ariel's eyes opened. Unblinking. Unfocused. Those eyes had lost their light. Faded. Gone. Leaving behind a reality that made Elice's tears flow uncontrollably.There was no breath. No more pulse. No more heartbeat. All signs of life were gone. Just as the soul had finally left its body."Ariel!" Elice sobbed. She embraced Ariel's lifeless body. Holding it tight. "Ariel, please."No matter how hard Elice shook the body in her embrace, she received no response. The rigid body remained motionless. Crushing any hope Elice had clung to.Ending in a hug full of devastation that made Elice cry even harder. Allowing Ariel's blood and her tears to mix into one."Ariel."Elice's voice was filled with fear. A pain she had never imagined before. For in that moment, Ariel was

    Ariel winced. Ignoring the pain in his stomach, he tried to stand up. But as soon as his body was lifted slightly from the ground, he fell again."Ariel!"Elice screamed when she saw Ariel's condition. He looked at her. He tried to speak."I-I'm okay."Elice shook her head. She knew for sure that Ariel wasn't okay right now. His condition was truly pitiful. But compared to that, there was something even more pitiful. That was her inability to do anything about it."Do you see that, Elice?" Farrah's voice made Elice turn around. The expression of hatred towards her was clearly overflowing. "Because of you," Farrah said in a trembling voice. "Ariel dares to defy me. His own mother."Elice shook her head. She tried to stand, but her legs felt completely powerless. Not to mention walking, even standing still was difficult for her."You are such a troublemaker, Elice. I should have gotten rid of you a long time ago."Farrah moved. She approached Teddy with an outstretched hand. The man qui

    For a moment, darkness was all Elice could feel. Until voices touched her senses. Awakening her consciousness. Pushing her to open her eyes.Elice's eyelids fluttered. Blinking repeatedly. Trying to open. And a wrinkle formed on her forehead.The voice was familiar. Causing Elice's eyes to focus even more. To look around. The place where she was right now.Elice wasn't sure where she was right now. The place seemed untidy. Untouched by humans and neglected for a long time.Dirty. Dusty. And Elice's eyes widened when she realized where she was lying. On the cold floor full of footprints."Of course, I can do that, Ariel! I will do anything to achieve my goals. Anything. Even if I have to get rid of Elice!"Elice turned away. Trying to get up, but unable to, she could only look straight ahead. At the three human figures that seemed to be in conflict.It was Ariel, Farrah and... Elice's body froze with cold fear. She would never forget that face.Teddy. The man who claimed to be Randi's

    Running his hands through his hair in escalating panic, Ariel prayed that he could get there in time. But the looming shadow of his own potential lateness drove him almost mad with fear.I have to stop Mama. I'll do anything to make sure Mama can't hurt Elice anymore.Ariel blinked. He realized something and immediately contacted two different people.The first was Garrett. Reluctantly, Ariel once again ignored all the arguments between them. None of it mattered when Elice's safety was at stake with every decision he made.However, contacting Garrett didn't immediately ease Ariel's mind. For Ariel knew exactly what Farrah was like. The middle-aged woman who was his biological mother would not hesitate to act again. To do anything to ensure that all her desires were fulfilled.Farrah wouldn't stop. No. Not until she had everything she wanted.Ariel wouldn't take that chance. So, he contacted the second person. And that was Ruben, his husband."Ruben, listen to me."Ariel took a deep br

Ready to take Elice and Carolus to their next destination. Namely, the boarding school under the care of the Morales Family Foundation.A bright day. As the sun began to roll toward the west, the weather was not as hot as it had been. It felt cooler."Are you thirsty, Madam?"Teddy's voice caught Elice's attention. Elice wanted to shake her head to answer the question, but instead she heard Teddy talking to her again."Maybe some water will soothe madam's throat."Elice looked at the bottle of mineral water. Somehow, she, who had not felt thirsty at all, suddenly felt the opposite. Suddenly, a feeling of dryness appeared and m
