Lynda took turns with Allexin to look after Mia. Lynda felt much more comfortable with Allexin taking care of Mia than the man named Zev who claimed to be Mia's husband.A surprise suddenly approached Lynda; her body was lifted from behind and floated in the air as two strong hands held her tightly."Nelvan! Put me down!" Lynda shouted.Nelvan truly put Lynda down, wrapped his arm around her waist, and rested his chin on her shoulder."Let go, I want to take a shower. I haven't cleaned up since yesterday because I was looking after Mia," Lynda pushed Nelvan, but he lifted her again, this time in a bridal style that made Lynda's hands reflexively wrap around Nelvan's neck."I asked you to let me go, not carry me," she protested.Nelvan just smiled innocently. Why did his smile have to be so handsome? No! Lynda immediately shook her head; she shouldn't be captivated by Nelvan, but wasn't he going to be her husband?Lynda's mind was currently arguing with itself until she realized that N
The next day, precisely at ten in the morning, Lynda returned to the hospital to visit Mia. Allexin went back to school, and it was Lynda's turn to take turns watching over Mia. Lynda fixed her bag before entering Mia's room, but she heard a sound from inside the room, like a scream, and of course, Lynda hurriedly entered where Zev had been thrown by Mia using a pillow. "Go away! I don't know you! Don't come near me or claim to be my husband!" Mia shouted. Lynda pulled Zev out before Mia became more emotional. Outside the room, Lynda looked up at Zev. Slap! Zev was obviously surprised by the slap that Lynda gave so casually. When Zev wanted to protest, Lynda responded first. "You've been pretending to be Mia's husband, and now you want to make my friend even sicker?" Lynda said angrily. Zev furrowed his brow, "I'm not lying, I'm her husband. Do I need to present our official marriage certificate to you?" Zev said, equally emotional. "Then why doesn't Mia remember you if you rea
Zev returned, this time the man came to Lynda's house. It was unclear who informed him that Mia now lived at Lynda's house, but Zev's arrival was not alone; he brought a lawyer with him.Allexin, who opened the door for Zev, furrowed his brow. "My house doesn't welcome liars like you," then Allexin was about to close the door, but Zev held the door to keep it open."Your sister told me I could come if I brought proof that Mia is my wife," Zev said, then he entered Allexin's house without permission.Mia was sitting on the sofa with Lynda. Both women turned to look as Zev entered. Mia had been allowed to go home since yesterday due to the exorbitant hospital bill that she couldn't afford, but unexpectedly, Zev had paid off the hospital bill.This situation only made Mia and Lynda unsure of how to act towards Zev."Why did you come here?" Mia demanded.Zev looked at Lynda. "May I sit down first?" he asked.Lynda nodded. "Please," she replied. Zev and the lawyer he brought then sat down.
Allexin didn't hide her admiration as she first set foot in the vast area of Nelvan's grand house. The house had two floors, white with black accents, large transparent glass windows offering views inside the house."Amazing, so the man who claimed to be your future husband yesterday is the boss and owner of this house?" Allexin asked."And you hit him until he bled," Lynda said.Allexin grimaced, "I didn't know he was your potential husband, nor did I know he was the boss at your workplace. But because he behaved rudely towards you, I wanted to punch him regardless of who he was.""Aren't you afraid of being charged for hitting him?""Well, I'm actually a bit scared. But you know yourself that I won't let anyone behave rudely towards you. Even though I'm a naughty little brother, at least you often say I'm naughty, right?" Allexin chuckled.Her head swiveled, taking in the vast yard of Nelvan's house. Next to the house was an open garage where three of Nelvan's cars were parked. Allex
After a long debate between Allexin and Nelvan, they peacefully finished lunch before Nelvan invited Allexin to his sports facility.Inside, there was a black mat in the middle of a spacious room, maybe about four square meters. Allexin looked amazed by the sports area."Do you spend your time here?""Not all the time, but whenever I have the chance, I will spend time here. Do you want to spar with me? Not a real match, I'm just curious about your strength since Lynda always warns not to make you angry."Allexin furrowed his brow, turning towards the entrance where Lynda didn't follow her into the room. "Did Lynda say that to you?" he asked, and Nelvan nodded.Allexin stepped back as Nelvan wanted to challenge. His hand waved in front of his chest. "We better not need to spar if Lynda has already warned you about that. You'd better listen to her advice rather than challenge me," Allexin declined."Are you afraid of me?" Nelvan asked."Afraid?" Allexin muttered. Rather than being afrai
It was still early in the morning when Nelvan was ready to go to the office. Even Lynda hadn't woken up when Nelvan left; he only left a quick peck on Lynda's forehead before hurrying off.Lynda's eyelids fluttered open; something must have happened for Nelvan, who usually woke up a bit late, to now wake up earlier. Lynda got up to follow Nelvan as he drove off in his car alone, without Hans.Since yesterday, Nelvan's face had not been pleasant to look at. It was clear that there was a problem that Nelvan didn't want to talk about. Whatever the issue was, hopefully, Nelvan could overcome it.She looked at the clock, which showed six in the morning. Lynda sighed softly; Nelvan hadn't even had breakfast, and he had already left in a rush.At seven in the morning, Hans and Allexin arrived. Allexin's face looked radiant; the teenager seemed satisfied after spending the night being driven around by Hans in Nelvan's sports car.Similar to Nelvan's hurried departure, Hans also left after dro
It was nearly midnight, but Nelvan was still in his office, facing his Mac screen with a serious expression. Several sheets of paper cluttered Nelvan's desk, indicating that the man was indeed facing a significant issue.Lynda opened the door slowly. Nelvan didn't turn or greet her; perhaps he was too focused to notice Lynda's arrival."It's midnight already. Can't you take a break? What if you get sick again?" Lynda asked.Nelvan glanced at Lynda briefly before returning to the papers and his Mac screen. "You should go to bed. There are still things to do," Nelvan replied.Lynda sighed softly. She didn't want to disturb Nelvan, but she knew he could fall ill if his sleep schedule didn't align with his work hours."Oh, by the way, I'll be heading to Manhattan in the morning. While I'm away, you can return home or have your brother stay here to keep you company. I won't let you be in danger while I can't protect you," Nelvan said, staring at the documents on his desk."For how long?" L
The distance from Mia's current residence to Lynda's place was very far. Lynda and Allexin had to travel for hours just to reach California. Yes, California was the area where the man named Zeveran lived."Is she planning to move to another country?" Lynda muttered after arriving at the address Mia had sent a few hours earlier.Allexin stared at the large house in front of them. It wasn't as big as Nelvan's, but the house in front of them was still luxurious. Once again, Allexin bowed to confirm if the house was where Mia lived with Zeveran."Let me call Mia to come out," Lynda dialed Mia's number. After a few rings, Mia answered the call. Allexin waited as well, occasionally glancing at the tight security in front of Zev's house.["Lynda, have you arrived?"] that was the sentence Lynda heard from Mia."I'm already in front of the house you mentioned. Are you really living there? I dare not enter because there are guards in front," Lynda saw several men walking around as if guarding s
Several months later.The seasons had changed, and the white dress with a long train caught the attention of the guests. The veil on Lynda's head completed the beauty and uniqueness of the wedding day she would share with Nelvan today.Lynda's smile never faded as she held a bouquet of flowers with one hand and held Allexin's hand, walking down the aisle towards an altar where Nelvan stood with a pastor.Nelvan wore a black tuxedo, a white shirt, and a bow tie matching the tuxedo. He looked like couldn't wait to reach Lynda. For Nelvan, Lynda looked incredibly beautiful at that moment. With the white wedding dress adorned with diamonds, Lynda's appearance was truly enhanced. Nelvan was touched to see the woman walking towards him, who would soon be his wife.The gaze between the bride and groom didn't waver until Lynda stood in front of Nelvan with Allexin. The teenager placed Lynda's hand in Nelvan's and said, "Now, I entrust Lynda's happiness to you. Never hurt her if you still want
Allexin was also dressed neatly and stylishly, typical of today's teenagers. He had even booked a taxi to their destination.Lynda, feeling confused, just followed wherever Allexin took her. Wherever it was, Lynda was sure it wasn't a dangerous place. Allexin wouldn't put her in danger as long as the teenager could still breathe.The journey was quite long. One hour after getting ready and over thirty minutes on the road."Where are we actually going?" Lynda asked, unable to hold back any longer. But Allexin just replied,"If I tell you now, it won't be a secret anymore." And Lynda just sighed.Suddenly, Allexin gently pulled Lynda. Without asking permission, the teenager put a blindfold on Lynda so she couldn't see anything."Allexin, why can't I see?""Shhh..., just a moment." The taxi stopped, and Allexin led Lynda out of the car and helped her walk to avoid tripping. Warmth was the first thing Lynda felt. It was likely they had entered a room, but Lynda couldn't see anything but da
It was early in the morning when Lynda woke up Allexin for breakfast, but the teenager was nowhere to be found. If it weren't winter, Lynda would know where Allexin went, but now she had no idea where he could have gone so early in the morning.Lynda reached for her phone to contact him, but Allexin's phone rang in the room, indicating it was being charged. Lynda sat and waited for Allexin to return so they could enjoy their meal together.The door opened, and Lynda immediately stood up, thinking it was Allexin, but to her surprise, it was Mia who entered. Lynda quickly ran into her friend's arms."Mia! I missed you so much!" Lynda exclaimed.Mia laughed as she returned Lynda's hug, "I missed you too," Mia replied.Lynda smiled broadly. She initially thought Mia had come alone, but seeing another figure behind Mia piqued Lynda's curiosity. The person was carrying many items, obscuring their face."Who did you bring?" Lynda asked."Let him in first." Mia opened the door to allow the per
Allexin patted Lynda's shoulder, trying to calm her down, but instead of succeeding in soothing Lynda, her brother's gesture only made her cry even more. Lynda didn't care that she looked very embarrassing crying like a child who wanted candy in front of her younger brother.The teenager took several deep breaths. "Is the impact on his head so severe that he doesn't recognize you?" Allexin asked.Lynda turned but then burst into tears again. Allexin massaged his temples. "Stop crying; I know the head injury was quite severe, but I didn't expect it to make him forget you. Perhaps it's just temporary amnesia; you calm down, he will surely remember you again," Allexin said, rubbing Lynda's arm.Lynda's feelings were still very painful. She had been caring for Nelvan day and night to ensure that he regained consciousness. However, when Nelvan opened his eyes and spoke, he didn't recognize Lynda. What was even more painful than that was being considered a stranger when Nelvan had suffered
Unconsciously, seven days had passed, and during that time, Nelvan still refused to open his eyes. The bruises on Nelvan's body had significantly reduced, indicating that Nelvan's condition might soon improve.As Lynda cleaned Nelvan's body with a damp towel, Allexin arrived with a wide smile."Lynda," the teenager called out. Lynda turned, and Allexin proudly displayed his tournament championship certificate. "I won the martial arts tournament yesterday. Don't worry; this is legal, and here's the proof of my achievement," Allexin continued before Lynda could get angry."Really?" Lynda placed the damp towel in the basin, and she took the certificate held by Allexin. Lynda's expression changed as she read Allexin's name written as the winner on it."I'm sorry I couldn't cheer you on during your match yesterday," Lynda said apologetically.Allexin shook his head, "It's not a big deal. In fact, because you didn't come, I was able to win," Allexin joked, chuckling and successfully dodging
A man known to Lynda as Nelvan's cousin arrived. The accident from yesterday had left Nelvan unconscious, and some parts of his body were starting to bruise.His shoulder and head were the same, seeing Nelvan in such a state would undoubtedly evoke pity from anyone who saw him."How is he?" Julius asked."There's still no sign of Nelvan waking up soon," Lynda replied. She then asked, "Have Nelvan's parents been informed about this?"Julius shook his head. "I don't know, but Nelvan is used to this. I mean, if he's sick, neither of his parents really care." Julius placed a flower and its vase on the table.Lynda looked at Nelvan. He had a complete family, but none of them had come to visit when he was sick. The only one who came to visit him was Julius.Shortly after Julius arrived, the door to the hospital room opened again. Hans entered, breathing heavily, looking like he had just finished a marathon."How is Nelvan?" Hans asked immediately. During the incident yesterday, Hans was in
Nelvan's hands clenched tightly as if he could crush anything in his grasp, his face clearly showing restraint to avoid hitting anyone there.Through his eyes, Nelvan saw Lynda in the most dangerous position, feeling incredibly guilty as it was his fault that Lynda was in this situation."What do you want?" Nelvan spoke with a restrained voice, not wanting to engage in small talk when it concerned Lynda's safety.Gilbert took the documents held by the man who had been with him all along. "Sign this; you will get your woman safely after signing this transfer document."Nelvan took the document."Don't scribble over it!" Lynda exclaimed. Nelvan turned; he genuinely wanted to run and take Lynda's place, but he couldn't act directly like that.Nelvan turned back to face Gilbert, who smirked cynically. "Why? Would you prefer the girl to die? What if I activate the bomb attached to her body?""Do you want me to sign this?" Nelvan asked."Of course, what do you think I've wanted all this tim
Nelvan headed to Allexin's location, not to pick up the teenager but to intercept the car carrying Lynda.Nelvan's actions were not on point, and his henchmen also joined in the search for Lynda. After about thirty minutes of searching, Nelvan still hadn't found any signs of Lynda's whereabouts.Nelvan's anxiety clouded his judgment, and all he wanted was to find Lynda safe and sound as soon as possible.Another call from Allexin came in, and Nelvan promptly answered."Have you found Lynda?" Nelvan asked."Not yet, I and the other people are also searching for Lynda, but no luck so far," Allexin replied.Nelvan turned off his phone and focused on finding Lynda. He also waited for one of his men to call and confirm that Lynda was safe. But over an hour had passed, and there was still no sign of Lynda. Both Nelvan and Allexin were equally worried.Elsewhere, Lynda unconscious and bound to a concrete pillar in a standing position, a basin of cold water was poured over Lynda, jolting her
Winter was on the verge of arriving, Nelvan sat in the reading room holding a book, but it wasn't the text in the book he was looking at, but a photo of a beautiful girl smiling sweetly.One thing Nelvan felt at the moment was guilt. Guilt for letting Julia replace him in the accident, and due to Nelvan's carelessness, Julia had found peace in her final resting place.Unexpectedly, after years, someone had imitated Julia's face to deceive Nelvan. No wonder since the incident at the hospital, Bella's presence had been hard to find, and it turned out that the cunning woman had altered her face to resemble the woman Nelvan had once protected.Nelvan's guilt was not only for Julia but also for Lynda. While lost in thought, suddenly Bella, with Julia's face, arrived. Honestly, Nelvan wanted to throw the woman in jail or into the depths of the sea if necessary. Besides her face being made as similar as possible to Julia's, Bella was also very skilled at pretending. If Nelvan made one wrong
