Cassian was just about to leave, but he was surprised to see that the light in Alex's office was still on.

"Sir, are you going to be working late again?" asked him after he knocked and opened Alex's office door.

"It's already five in the afternoon. Isn't it time to go home?"

Alex answered Cassian's words without even seeing the documents he was reading.

"If you want to go home, just go home, and don't be too fussy, Cass."

"But, sir. Lately, I see you always come home late. Is there any work that you need to get done right away? How about I help you?"

"Cass, are my ears deceiving me? Because I think I just heard you offer to help. I remember you always wanted to come home on time."

"I do prefer to leave work on time, sir. But that doesn't mean I will close my eyes if work needs to be done immediately. Besides, if my help can get you home quicker, then I won't mind."

"And why, indeed, should I come home sooner?"

"Um, sir. Isn't your wife waiting at home? Don't you want to meet

    After a few days, Alex finally joined the dinner tonight. But instead of making the atmosphere more enjoyable, this dinner took place tensely.Elisha said nothing when she saw that Alex was already in the dining room. She sat down in her usual place and ate her dinner in silence.She habitually chewed her food, but she did not know how it tasted."Madam, I'll have another dish prepared right away."Elisha was a little surprised when Gaspar said that."Oh! No, it's fine. The food taste is fine. Thank you, Gaspar.""But you barely touch any of it, Ma'am."Elisha clutched a knife and fork in her hands. Somehow, she could feel Alex's gaze on her. She felt even more congested because Alex didn't say anything to her."No. You don't have to," she said. "About my meal, I'm quite full now. I should head upstairs."Gaspar was unable to stop Elisha. He looked at Elisha's barely touched leftover dinner and refrained from turning to look at Alex."Yes, Madam. Have a good rest," Gaspar said later.

    Alex left his office highly displeased. He felt that Elisha was taking too long to come and thoughtlessly walked till he stepped outside.When he realized he had done something stupid, he quickly turned around and tried to leave. But before he could do that, he discovered her.He stood still, but then his feet turned towards her.Elisha straightened her waist and saw him approaching her.She was angry with him. Her condition was terrible because she could not sleep properly every night. Not including all the heartache she felt over Alex's change in attitude that she couldn't understand.Elisha's hand holding the tray of pudding slightly trembled.Just a while ago, she wanted to slap him if she ever saw him. But once she saw him, all the anger that had piled up instantly melted away like salt dissolved in the water.For now, Elisha confusingly wanted to cry.'I am such an idiot,' she thought, feeling her heart slip through the crevices.She didn’t know what to do. While her heart bubbl

    Elisa took a deep breath, trying to hold back her tears. She didn't know whether the wound she received had healed, but his tender words and gentle caresses made her heart ache. On the other hand, Alex wasn’t sure what to do when looking at the tears flowing down her cheeks, but he stood up. He stepped around the table towards her and wrapped his arms around her. "I'm sorry, Wife. I was wrong. I'm sorry." His embrace and scent that she’d been missing made her heart feel like it had overcome the heavens and was relatively calm. But on the other hand, she felt anxious too. Elisha didn't know whether she should confess her feelings for Alex. On the one hand, she wanted to say it, but she also knew Alex was not a man who depended on feelings. 'No,' she thought. 'Once I admit my feelings, things will surely fall apart again.' She realized their relationship was nothing more than a castle of sand, and no one knew when it would collapse. She was unsure. Nothing was resolved. But per

    If you must describe the conditions in Alex's office, then chaotic is the right word.Several sofa cushions fell, papers scattered on the floor, and not to mention piles of documents on the desk that make whoever sits behind them invisible.Elisha's eyes widened when she saw how messy Alex's office was."What's the— Alex, what's happened over here?"In answer to her question, Alex slowly pulled one of the knots on Elisha's shoulder. Bending to kiss the newly exposed skin, he pulled off another knot and was rewarded as Elisha's satin blouse slid down to reveal a strapless white lace bra.Damn!Alex suddenly felt like the inside of his pants wanted to burst at the sight of her.He also skillfully took off her bra at once.Alex was stunned when he saw Elisha's breasts hanging down. There was hunger flashing in his pair of deep blue eyes."Wife, I don't think now is the time to talk about tidiness."Alex growled. He couldn't believe that Elisha was still talking about the state of his off

    Elliott had just entered the Wincorp building, and, as usual, several employees greeted him immediately. But not until he reached half of the lobby was Harris Hilton seen walking towards him in a hurry."What's wrong?" he asked, immediately lowering his head so Harris could whisper directly into his ear. "Are you sure?""Yes, Sir."Elliott's expression immediately changed. He looks angry."What a stupid, ignorant man!"He then hurried away with Harris following behind him. Arriving at his office, the person who became the source of his anger was already waiting."Good morning, Sir Winter. I hope my arrival is not too disturbing."With such a polite demeanor and a friendly smile, Caleb Adams said hello. However, Elliott did not respond.Elliott unbuttoned his suit and sat down, then asked, "What do you want?"Facing Elliott's unfriendly attitude didn't make Caleb lose his polite and calm demeanor. Among the three MAC owners, he is the friendliest."Nothing special," he said, sitting d

    "Cheers!"Diora raised her glass, then did a toast with a man. She drank her sherry with a smile and a happy face."I didn't expect to be able to meet you tonight," said the man who accompanied her drinking.He hugged Diora's waist and stroked her thigh, but surprisingly Diora didn't refuse him."Don't you like the see me?""No. Of course not. I'm certainly glad to see you, Ara. So I was just surprised."Like a teenager, Diora blushed when the man called her 'Ara.'"I'm bored at home," she said later, sipping her second glass. "Do you know? Recently my husband has been acting very strange. He often had nightmares and was delirious, thus disturbing my sleep. Then as if that wasn't enough, he also often gets hysterical and screams in fear for no reason."Diora then filled her second glass of sherry, then asked. "Do you think he's mad—" She drank half of her glass. "—Marlon?"The man she is currently with is Marlon Foster.Diora knew that he was Elisha's uncle, and she had no intention o

    It was midnight when Marlon's car pulled into the Fosters' residence. He staggered slightly as he got out of the car and struggled up the steps of the terrace.One hand held the railing to keep him from slipping and falling. Meanwhile, one hand in the other was carrying an expensive-looking carved wooden box.Several times he stopped, hiccuped, then resumed walking. Marlon had only taken a few steps into the house when he heard someone speak sarcastically."This is surprising. You've come home. Even though you usually never come home before morning."Marlon turned and snorted when he saw who had been teasing him. It was Zora Foster, his daughter."Why haven't you gone to sleep yet? What time do you think it is now?""Helloo. What year is it? Since when do you care about me?""Listen, Zora. I'm tired right now and don't want to argue with you. So, shut up!""Tired? Wow, I just learned that deceiving others can tire you too."Marlon growled. He almost threw the carved wooden box he was

    Some of the maids are now trying to help Zora up. However, as if both legs were suddenly paralyzed, Zora looked so difficult to stand on her own two feet.Apart from his groaning voice, Zora's sobs could also be heard."Even though I purposely came to meet you because I missed you, Elisha. But why are you treating me like this?""Apologize, Miss Foster. I'm afraid that it seems you are wrong. My madam will never—"Gaspar immediately stepped forward, wanting to defend Elisha. He knew that the relationship between Elisha and Alex had recently improved and was worried that Zora's words could make it worse again.But Elisha then turned to him and smiled.Even though Elisha didn't say anything, Gaspar already understood the meaning of Elisha's gaze and smiled at him.He immediately quieted down and bowed his head respectfully.Zora, who saw that Gaspar was no longer bothering her, immediately took advantage of this opportunity.Zora put on the saddest face she could, silently pinching her

    'Alex gave me twenty million dollars to stop trying to contact you. He also put pressure on Dudley Baker with the help of a woman named Nora Hawk, if I remember correctly.' Elisha rubbed her sweaty forehead. She had never expected to hear such a thing. Alex had lied to her. He lied to her from the start. "If so, is it possible that everything he's said all this time is also a lie?" she whispered. "He said he loves me and that he needs me... Those are all lies?" Elisha's head throbbed painfully. Being in a relationship with someone who couldn't tell the difference between lying and not wasn't something Elisha could hope for. "Madame, are you all right?" "What?" "Since you were in prison earlier, you've been more silent." Elisha smiled faintly. "It's okay, sir Evan. I'm fine. But can you take me to my dad's? I want to see him." "Of course, madam. But don't forget that later you have lunch plans with Sir Alex in his office." "Ah, about that, I'll meet Alex with my family's dri

    After the storm, there will be a rainbow, which suits the current situation.Elisha woke to the morning sunshine. She stretched a little, enjoying the sensual feel of the sheet against her naked body. And she saw him.Alex was sitting in a chair near the window, wearing only his shorts, reading something on his cell phone. She came to him.Elisha climbed into his lap and curled herself against him as he wrapped her in his embrace."Good morning," she whispered.Alex put down his phone and looked at his wife intently.He felt the soft heat of her breast against his chest, the gentle touch of her hand on his cheek. He closed his eyes when her lips were soft against his as she kissed him."It's killing me," he said gruffly. "I feel like my sanity depends on you, Wife.""What?""My desire for you is a burden on my soul. I'm desperate for you. I want to have you completely. Your mind, your heart, and also your body. I want to have all of that, Wife.""Alex, I—""Would you believe me if I s

    It's been a month since Aeron's funeral.Today, Elliott decided to visit the graves of his wife and two sons.First of all, he visited Natasha's grave. There, Elliott spent half an hour recounting what had happened.He tells about Aramis, who is now in jail. Elliott also expressed his great disappointment towards Aramis, whom, although he was not his biological son, he had raised well."I feel guilty towards Aeron because all this time I hardly ever paid attention to him, Natasha," he said in a very low voice. "All this time, I thought of him as a useless child without me first trying to teach him well."Of course, Elliott's regrets didn't stop there. There was another, even greater regret he felt."Adrianus." He whispered. "Even though our son was innocent, I kicked him out cruelly. I never even wanted to meet him and his family, not until he and his wife died in an accident. Then, Natasha, do you know what more terrible things I have done?"Elliott looked at his wife's tombstone. Th

    "Sir, this— Is what you said just now true?"Harris Hilton's voice sounded so surprised. Not long after, he hurriedly apologized for speaking in such an exclamatory tone."That's right, Harris. Please keep this secret to yourself. My children can't find out just yet. I'm telling you this so that I don't explode.""But why? How could you keep something this big a secret even for so many years?""I had to, Harris! Do you think I would do it if I still had a choice? The Winter family's reputation is at stake, and there is no way out.""But, this— Excuse me, sir. I didn't think that—""My younger sister, Maura, attends a boarding school in Switzerland. But one day, she suddenly came home pregnant. We are, of course, shocked by a situation like that. Moreover, Maura didn't want to tell who the man who had made her pregnant was. She carried the secret even to the end. She died in childbirth."There was silence for a few moments until Harry finally found his voice again. "So how— Ah, apologi

    Aeron's funeral took place on a beautiful day.The sky looks so blue, decorated with white clouds. The sun was shining brightly, and the air was refreshing. Truly a perfect day to spend on vacation.Alex frowned.This pleasant weather seemed to mock those who were grieving.Many people attended Aeron's funeral, including Diora, his ex-wife. Alex could see Diora standing a bit away and alone. She looked like she didn't want people to recognize her.Neither Pamela nor David accompanied Diora because Alex knew that his two cousins ​​were with Elisha, his wife.Alex snorted in amusement while one corner of his lips pulled upwards.Now, he felt ridiculous about himself. It didn't feel long ago that he had been irritated that David was clinging to Elisha like a kitten following its mother everywhere.But now, Alex was grateful.He was grateful for having Elisha because it was thanks to his wife that his two cousins ​​could be stronger through this terrible storm."Wife, I miss you.""I'm he

    Three days passed in the blink of an eye.Alex was sitting looking at Elisha, who was making up. All the movements that his wife did seemed to be inseparable from his pair of deep blue eyes.He watches her when Elisha looks up when wearing eyeliner or when her lips are slightly parted when Elisha applies lipstick, and he doesn't feel bored at all.This was crazy.Ever since Alex realized his feelings for Elisha, he didn't want to leave his wife. Even to go to work, he felt so lazy, whereas before, Alex was a workaholic. He didn't seem like he was, but surprisingly Alex didn't mind.This was weird."Is there something weird?""Pardon?""Alex, since earlier, you have been looking at me incessantly. So, what's wrong? Is there anything strange about my appearance?"He smiled. "I think you have caught me, Wife," he said.Alex approached Elisha, hugged her from behind, then rested his chin on Elisha's shoulder. He looked at himself and Elisha in the mirror and was amazed by how perfect th

    "Of course, we'll come, Aeron. Don't worry. Anyway, please prepare lots of delicious food for us."Aeron heard a soft groan which was followed by a chuckle. He smiled, too, because he could imagine that on the other side of the call, Adrianus was being beaten by Willona."All right," he said with laughter. "See you tonight.""See you tonight. Oh, and Aeron.""Yes?""I'm glad you invited us. Thank you."Aeron was silent for a few moments. He, too, felt so moved.It had been quite some time since Adrianus had been chased out of the house by Elliot, and finally, tonight, they would gather again for dinner together."I feel happy too, Brother," he said then. "See you tonight."Their phone call finally ended. Aeron then informed Aramis that Adrianus and his family were coming. After that, he waited happily but impatiently for dinner.But in fact, everything ended not according to Aeron's expectations.That night Adrianus had an accident that killed him and his wife, Willona.

    Aeron was very shocked when he found out how Pamela was.His daughter needed treatment to remove all the effects of the drug in her body. On top of that, Pamela was clearly under a lot of mental stress.Aeron sat hunched over and covered his face with both hands.He was relieved already that David had regained consciousness after undergoing various treatments for the concussion he had. But now, he again felt worried about Pamela's condition."Oh, Lord. Why is everything getting messed up like this?"Aeron groaned and wailed. He felt that the happiness that he had, now shattered in the blink of an eye.Hadn't his life been nearly perfect all this time?Even though he is not the main heir in his family, Aeron has more than enough wealth. He has a magnificent house and all kinds of other luxuries.Aeron also has a beautiful wife and two children, a daughter, and a son.Her life is perfect. He has everything.

    In the quiet bedroom, only the sound of two people breathing could be heard.Elisha was breathing, calming down to an even pace, and Alex lowered his head, turned her body sideways, then wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her into his arms.He embraced her for a while, then covered her lips, eyes, and forehead with kisses."Alex, I think we should get up now.""Mmhh."Elisha laughed. Alex's kisses amused her."Stop it. Ha-ha. Alex, please. That’s ticklish.""Then, how about I make it not ticklish?""No! Alex, it's already morning.""We can still make it. Wife, there is plenty of time."Alex whispered, then bit her neck and left another hickey there.His hand stealthily slipped from her back to her waist, but Elisha twisted her body and naturally pushed his hand away.When the smooth sensation of her skin disappeared from his palm, he reached out stubbornly and grabbed her buttocks.This time, Elisha pushed away from his chest."Wife?""We can’t, Alex.
