Edgar laid himself down. He said that he stayed by the campfire until the drinks ran out. He didn't linger there for long. Edgar would have drunk the ginger drink in one gulp and returned to the tent if the ginger drink had been cold. Even though Elissa was still cranky, Edgar wanted to spend the night alone with his wife. Edgar didn't bring fried bananas because they were already gone when he was about to ask for some.

"Are you asleep, dear?" asked Edgar as he covered himself with his sleeping bag. He didn't use an extra blanket. The blanket he brought with him wrapped around Elissa. Elissa was now sleeping on his side like the last time Edgar left him.

There was no answer. But Elissa's breathing still sounded irregular, indicating that Elissa was still awake.

"I realize that our household problems should not be brought outside the room, but if I may reason, there is a reason why I trust Araf so much. Believe me, Lissa. I never badmouthed you in front of him. I've always asked him fo

    "Gar, are you awake?" Araf asked from outside.Edgar opened the tent. Elissa was still asleep. Her condition was better but not great. Her face was still pale. Because she didn't eat last night and because this was her first climb, she must have felt a lot of pain."The rescue team has arrived?" asked Edgar."You didn't sleep?" asked Araf when he saw Edgar's reddened eyes. Not only that, his face also looked drained."Has the rescue team arrived yet?" Edgar repeated his question.Araf swallowed. It had been a long time since he last saw Edgar this seriously. Araf also began to wonder if what Edgar had said was true. Has their relationship improved, and does Edgar only need Elissa now?Araf looked at Edgar once again. Edgar's face was messy. His eyes had eye bags. His eye bags also had eye bags. All night long, he must have been keeping Elissa from freezing. He repeatedly checked her temperature. Araf also saw that there was food behind Edgar that needed to be entirely eaten. Edgar mus

    "Naia!" shouted Mika.Naia wasn't listening. She was busy packing her things."Naia!" Mika shouted back.Again. Naia didn't listen. Finished with her preparations, Naia left the tent. She hurried down the road after Edgar."Naia!" Mika shouted again. This time, her hand grabbed Naia's hand, preventing her from leaving."What!" Naia shouted back."Do you want to follow Edgar?" asked Mika.Naia didn't answer. She lowered her gaze. With Naia's silence, Mika knew the answer."Are you crazy, huh?"Naia raised her eyes. She stared intently at Mika. "I'm already crazy, Mik, and you know it. I can't live without Edgar!""Naia realize! This is the first time you've climbed a mountain. It's lucky you made it here. And even then you were about to pass out. So now you want to go down? By yourself? You want to die, huh?" said Mika."I don't care. Whatever the consequences, I'll make up for it." Naia threw away Mika's hand that was holding her. Naia left through the fog. In her mind, only one, Edga

    Desmond sipped his coffee. Ira sat next to him. One by one, the signed letters were now in his hands. After Bhima was attacked and almost died at the hands of Fritz, Desmond began to launch his stLissaegy. And now it had reached fifty percent success."Fritz still hasn't realized it, right?" asked Ira.Desmond shook his head. "That snot-nosed kid only cares about ruining Elissa and Edgar's relationship. He can't possibly realize that one by one the companies that support him have been taken over by us."Ira tugged at her lips. "Thank you for still being smart, Desmond. It's a good thing the stupid Desmond was thrown away," he smirked.Desmond chuckled. "Without you by my side, I would have become a despicable man with no morals. Thank you for sticking around, dear!"Ira moved her head forward, and Desmond kissed her cheek. Ira then clung to her husband's arm. She looked at the company contract letters one by one. Ira fondly remembered when she insisted on meeting one of Fritz's client

    News of Edgar's disappearance soon reached Desmond's ears. Without further ado, Desmond immediately mobilized all his troops. He also asked for special forces to find Edgar. Desmond rallied whatever he had to find Edgar alive without thinking about the cost. A massive ten-thousand-dollar reward was given to anyone who could discover Edgar."What about Miss Elissa, sir?" asked Bhima.Desmond exhaled. He had no other choice. Edgar needed his attention more than Elissa right now. Desmond was also sure that Fritz wouldn't mess with her. He was indeed a psychopathic jerk, but when it came to honoring Elissa, he was the one. It took a long time for Fritz to dare to touch Elissa, even if it was just holding hands."Take this and look for Fritz until you find him!" said Desmond.Bhima received a folder from his master. He nodded and then moved back."Bhima!" interrupted Desmond."Yes, Sir?" Bhima turned around and looked at Desmond."Be careful. You are like my own son. Don't get hurt like ye

    "Is this really Edgar's shirt?" asked Jef.Araf nodded. He couldn't have forgotten that Edgar loved the soccer team with the blue shirt. He also loved the number 9. Even though this shirt was torn and covered in blood, there was still the name 'GAR' written on the back of the shirt."Is he still alive?" asked Araf in a trembling tone.This shirt was already tattered. Its shape was also out of the body. When Araf was resting and drinking, he saw this shirt stuck on a tree."The possibility is still 50:50. This shirt got stuck on the tree because maybe a monkey carried it. Unfortunately, there are still blood stains on this shirt, which means Edgar was injured," Jef explained.He reported his findings. Simultaneously, the search began to center around the river and the landslide. The sound of flying drones and helicopters could be heard. Drones began combing again, looking for Edgar's body heat from a height of 20 meters. Meanwhile, helicopters began to monitor from a high altitude."I

He took the bottle of mineral water that was left. He opened it slowly and drank a little. He didn't know when he would get out of this wilderness.Edgar knew that if he got lost on the mountain, the fastest way to return was to return to the top. But in his current condition, that was not possible. It was also impossible for him to return to the path he used yesterday to climb to the top.Edgar didn't know how long he had been here. He also needed to find out what day it was. The last thing he remembered was chasing after Elissa, who Fritz had brought. Edgar hoped that Elissa would be okay.Edgar took a breath. He picked at the young leaves beside him—the easiest way to have a little energy. There were only 500 milliliters of mineral water left in his bag.

    Although Edgar didn't know what Hunter had promised Fritz, Edgar tried to remain calm. He wasn't going to stay undercover forever. Besides, the police and Desmond's security forces would soon arrive. Edgar only needed to find Elissa.Edgar watched every shape of the building. The building before him was a fairytale palace with towering towers and still black bricks. The structure was dominated by Greek architecture. Or even all of them had Greek flavor. Only one is not—the two date palms planted before the palace gate. According to Edgar, Fritz seemed to want to combine the two concepts of the princess kidnapped by the dragon and the princess from Aladdin's fairy tale."So, where is the gift you promised?" asked Fritz.Edgar was still calm. "You invited me all the way here just to collect a promise. You didn't serve me food first?""Oh right. Let's eat first while talking."Edgar laughed. "It's been a while since we talked together, right?""Yeah. But if you don't bring that gift, you

    "What about Elissa, Bhim?" asked Edgar when Bhima finally visited the hospital.Edgar could now do anything. The doctor also advised him to start taking small steps. Fortunately, the fracture wasn't too severe, so the recovery period was also expected to be short."That's why I came to see you, Young Master. Today we'll be heading to Fritz's private island," Bhima reported."Tell me where it is!" he ordered."Sorry, Young Master. But I'm only here to tell you that. I'm not allowed to tell you the details.""Bhima. Where do you think I'm going? My leg still hasn't healed. My chest still hurts because my ribs still haven't healed. I just want to know how you plan to get Elissa back. Who knows, I can add to some of your plans that might be lacking," said Edgar.Bhima began to look hesitant."Anyway, Bhim. I won't be able to calm down if you only tell me the rough outline."Bhima exhaled. "All right. But young master, please calm down. I will only explain once because time is not our frie

    Elissa knocked on Tory's room. She already had a plan to get out of here. What mattered to her now was that Fritz didn't always fixate on her."Miss Queen?" asked Tory in disbelief.She smiled. She hurriedly entered and locked the door. She didn't want the bodyguard Fritz had sent to follow her into Tory's room. No one should know her plan.During the night, Elissa thought about several possibilities. Although there was still a possibility of failure and the success Lissae depended on Tory herself, this was the only way she could think of for now. Elissa did not want to be confined here forever. Even though all her needs and luxurious things were fulfilled on this island, she still wanted to be with Edgar."What does Miss Elissa want? Do you want me to check on you again? Does Mr. Fritz want it?""I want to get straight to the point. Do you really love Fritz?"Tory's face turned red again. She also covered her face with her hands again.

    Edgar kept thinking about something while lost in the forest and walking without direction. Why did all this happen? Edgar continued translating everything that happened until he realized that what Elissa said was true. Araf had planned something.Without a plan, there would be no climb to Rinjani. Without Araf planning it, there was no way Naia would suddenly be kind to Elissa. Naia would have preferred Elissa to be exhausted and unable to reach the summit. With Araf planning it, Mika would bring a particular mountain communication device and contact Fritz directly.Edgar only realized it after he repeatedly fainted from falling into the ravine. He regretted being so trusting of one person.Araf was speechless. No matter how neatly he prepared his plan, it would be revealed someday. Like a buried carcass, one day, it will leave an odor. Edgar is not a fool; he must have realized it quickly."I'm sorry. I had dark eyes. I thought you would never be happy with Elissa. I thought she wou

    Bhima took off his mask. His hands were bruised. He was tired of beating so many people. The members under him were the same. They sat with their legs bent, resting. This day was already the fifth base they visited, but there was no sign of Fritz. Not even one of Fritz's men knew where his boss was."Check if there are any clues. I want to check Fritz's room one more time!" Bhima said.It had been almost a week since he went around looking for where Fritz was. He only found Elissa's picture in all the buildings he came across. And the headquarters in San Francisco was the same. There was nothing that stood out. Fritz's seat even looked like a regular office.Bhima entered Fritz's room once again. He looked around. Everything was a mess. Fritz's desk had also been destroyed. Cabinets, walls, and even the ceiling had been broken. But there was nothing suspicious. Everything inside was always the same. It only contained clothes and trinkets.Bhima lifted the cupboard that he had knocked
