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

    "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.

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.

What is that strange thing that makes women and men close to each other? Just imagining it makes her sick. Not anything, but kneeling before a man, according to her, is a disgusting item.But it was already hard to earn money to make her parents happy. Instead, Elissa's parents said they could only be satisfied if they saw Elissa marry. How annoying."Isn't there anything else, Dad, Mom? Elissa can buy a new building, a private plane, or maybe a vacation to Hawaii. But please don't get married!" she argued."Do you think Dad and Mom can't buy their own?" Mr. Desmond argued.Elissa rolled her eyes. It was always like this. Sometimes, she was confused about what to give her parents because they could buy it themselves.Elissa did not believe in love. According to the book she read, there is no such thing as true love. If someone loves another person because the

    His name is Edgar Zealand. His daily life is only as an employee. He is in charge of a project. He lives alone. Edgar has no father, mother, or siblings. However, he is never lonely because he is the primary donor of an orphanage.His name is unique for a modern man of today. Edgar means powerful as a King, and Zealand means sea land. So indirectly, Edgar Zealand means the king who rules the ocean.He is about 180 cm tall and has clean skin, blue eyes, and straight and slightly blonde hair. Many brands would want to work with him if he entered the modeling world, but Edgar didn't care. And for Elissa, Edgar's face was standard.

    "It's good to be able to sleep in a room this grand," mocked Elissa when Edgar entered her room for the first time.Instead of getting angry, Edgar smiled. The ends of her lips formed a knot smile. Very sweet. Elissa saw that. But she was unwilling to recognize Edgar's face's perfect shape. It turned out that the photo given by her father was ugly. Edgar originally had a million charms. The look in his eyes was shady, the aura of his existence was soothing, and his face was friendly and pleasing to the eye, all of which were not in the photo.But then again, Elissa didn't want to admit that. She still thought Edgar was just a parasite she had to get rid of as soon as possible from this house. Edgar was just a poor man who probably just lived on the wealth of Elissa's family.

    "I was expecting you to say something like that. And for your actions today, I want to reward you with something," Desmond said.Elissa's lips had been pouting. Her gaze was sharp, intimidating. She didn't like this. She had not expected her quiet life to change at all since the arrival of the ignorant man beside her. If she were just a little late, her favorite room would turn into a space of hell.Elissa didn't answer. Although she was curious about what gift her father would give her, her feelings told her it was not good. Therefore, she didn't move from the doorway at all. She continued to block the servants and couriers from moving the items her parents had just bought into the room."I have decided to leave my entire estate to you...."A slight smile appeared on Elissa's face. Finally, what she had been waiting for all this time was also realized. With her father's wealth, she could open branches of her business in various places, making her much richer."Thank you, Dad," she sa

    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

She was also fed up that her son was now in Fritz's hands, and no one knew where she was. Only Bhima could track her down, which might take a long time.Ira contacted her acquaintances. She asked for help to collect any evidence of Fritz's crimes. Ira also has a hacker acquaintance. She needed information from an authority and digital data about Fritz's financial statements. If Ira's suspicions were correct, Fritz should never have paid taxes."Where are we going, ma'am?" the driver asked."We're meeting this person!" said Ira as she showed the photo and sent the address to the car's direction system."Are you sure, ma'am? He's nothing more than a deceitful loan shark.""There is no more time. Edgar needs Elissa and she needs to be by his side.

Araf and Jef, who joined the forest and combed the river, had come out. They found no one.The drones that detect body heat also did not get any response. The helicopter boarded by the SAR team also came up empty. Those up there using binoculars with body tempeElissare tracking lenses also found nothing.Rumors that wild animals might have eaten Edgar grew. It seemed impossible that they could not find Edgar, even though the equipment was as complete as this.Mustafidz and Balqis bit their lips.

    Edgar fell. His legs were no longer strong enough to walk. No matter where he went, he couldn't find water. Edgar sat down. He leaned against a tree. 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.

    "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
