Allexin asked the school authorities, "Can you tell me again how much I have to pay for this competition?" Allexin enjoys participating in school competitions, and of course, before the competition, there is an initial fee that must be paid. For example, in a robotics competition, if Allexin's group does not receive financial assistance, the participants will have to use their own funds. A while ago, he heard something uncertain, prompting him to ask the school directly.The woman, no longer young, looked at the computer and books to confirm, "Around twenty-five thousand dollars," she said confidently.Allexin held his breath, running his fingers through his slightly natural blonde hair. It seemed that this time he would not be able to participate in the competition because his savings had been depleted to pay off Nelvan's debt.Allexin walked out of the administrative room feeling drained, and he met Darwin in front of him."Hey Bro! What's up?" he asked.Allexin shook his head softl
It has been five days since Lynda completely left Nelvan's house. The house felt empty, with no one preparing food to Nelvan's liking. For days, all Nelvan could do was scold the cook because the food didn't suit him."Would you like me to cook for you?" Julia offered.Nelvan turned, "Can you cook? What if you end up hurting yourself?" Nelvan touched Julia's hand, and unintentionally noticed something strange again, but he didn't mention it.Nelvan let go of Julia's hand, "Alright, if you want to cook for me, but make sure you don't hurt yourself," he said.Julia nodded and headed to the kitchen. With the help of the cook, Nelvan watched Julia prepare the food. At times like this, Nelvan felt as if Lynda was in the kitchen, smiling at him occasionally while making the food.It seemed like Nelvan missed Lynda, missing everything about that girl, including her cooking and her smile.After nearly an hour of cooking, Julia served the food in front of Nelvan. The man tried Julia's cooking f
This time, Nelvan didn't go back to the mansion; he didn't want to meet anyone, so he locked himself in a hotel with several bottles of alcohol. One bottle was already empty, and the other was half gone.The drink only helped alleviate Nelvan's anxiety momentarily but didn't help him resolve the dilemma between Julia or Lynda. Both women meant so much to Nelvan that he couldn't let go of either of them.Nelvan's phone rang, showing Julia's name, but Nelvan ignored it. Shortly after, the phone rang again, this time it was Hans calling, but Nelvan still didn't answer calls from either of them.His head started to ache, and Nelvan rested it on the sofa with a slightly tilted position. His eyelids closed, reminiscing about his closeness with Julia when they were in the same school.No one could compare to Julia in Nelvan's heart during that time, no other woman was as close to him as Julia. It wasn't Julia who prevented it, but Nelvan himself who didn't want it. Remembering the past made
That day, Lynda had just returned from work, and Allexin had also just come back from training. They crossed paths, but Allexin was still upset with Lynda for giving Nelvan a chance when it was very clear that he was ignoring Lynda's feelings."Allexin!" Lynda called out. The teenager kept walking until he reached their house, with Lynda following behind. "Do you want me to make your favorite dish?" Lynda asked."No need, I've already eaten," he curtly replied. Just as Lynda was about to follow Allexin to his room, he closed the door in annoyance.Lynda sighed, "I know you're still angry about yesterday's issue, but you don't have to be like this!"The door opened slightly, revealing Allexin's eyes through the gap. "I don't care! I hate that man, no matter how rich or handsome he is. But if he dares to hurt you, then he's on my life's blacklist!" then the door closed again, but two seconds later, it opened slightly once more."Oh, and I don't like that you gave him a chance to win you
A beautiful woman stepped out of the blue car she drove herself, her face bearing a slight resemblance to Nelvan's, and entered the grand house in front of her. The door to the office was opened without needing to be knocked, which naturally surprised the people inside."You have to explain why Julia is in your house," Vania's question was thrown out as soon as she entered.Nelvan glanced towards where the hidden device Julia had placed was, then stood up from his chair and invited Vania to follow him to the reading room. Once there, he made sure to close the door and gestured for Vania to take a seat."I don't want to hear long explanations. Tell me briefly so I can easily understand," Vania said before Nelvan started speaking.Seated on another sofa in the room, Nelvan asked, "Are you curious about who Julia is in this house?" It wasn't an answer but a counter-question.Vania rolled her eyes impatiently, "If I wasn't curious, why would I ask you? All I know is that Julia passed away
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
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
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
