"Who are you looking for?" Araf asked. His head looked up, seeing where Edgar was looking.

"That's Balqis, isn't it?" asked Edgar, confirming what he saw.

Araf crossed his arms. "All women look alike when seen from behind. There's no way Balqis is here. We are in Lebanon, not Indonesia. Besides, Balqis must have children by now. Let's eat. I'm hungry!" Araf also dragged Edgar. His friend was still looking in the direction he had just pointed, but Araf didn't care and continued to carry him.

"Damn!" Araf cursed when the restaurant was packed and had to wait in line to order again. "It's all your fault, Gar!"

Edgar grinned. "Yeah, sorry. Just change restaurants; there are many here."

"This is the most famous restaurant in Souk El Tayeb. Try it. Remember, Gar, my money is limited."

Edgar laughed. "Just wait in line. It won't take an hour."

After a few minutes, Araf and Edgar were seated with Lebanese food—yellow pilaf rice.

    "I didn't expect a woman who looks like Balqis to be here," Araf responded. He started to put on his uniform. Today, the project was underway again. Just add a few finishing touches, and it was done.Edgar has yet to respond. Instead, he thought of Elissa. How was that woman? It had been a long since he had heard her angry tantrums and misbehavior that made Edgar smile. Fate had played with the blue-eyed man's heart. At a time when he was not sure he was happy with Elissa, fate brought up a figure very similar to Balqis - the woman he once loved.Not wanting to think about useless things, Edgar chose to leave immediately. He put on his project hat and stepped out."Are you leaving now? Wait for me!" shouted Araf, who hurriedly put on his vest and grabbed his project hat.Her name was Naia. In the meaning of the name, she is a beautiful and exotic ocean wave. It is very suitable when juxtaposed with Edgar, which means ocean. And the presence of that woman last night made Edgar unable t

    Before Edgar and Elissa split up"Where are we going?" asked Elissa when Edgar suddenly asked him to go.Edgar fixed his sitting position. "Tomorrow, we will be separated for a long time. I go to Lebanon, and you go to Singapore. At least today, I want to take you for a walk. We don't know what will happen tomorrow. Who knows if today is our last day together.""Last day?""Yep. No one knows how long our life and togetherness will last. That's why, at least today, I want us to be alone, away from the crowd."Elissa raised her eyebrows. "When we're in the villa, it's not far from the crowd, right?"Edgar laughed. "This time, it will be different," he said later.Elissa leaned back. She looked away. She wanted to ignore Edgar's words but couldn't help herself. Elissa was very curious. The last time she went with Edgar was to watch the sunrise on a deserted beach. The memory was still beautifully stored in her mind. Elissa admitted that it was one of the most beautiful experiences in her

    Edgar pushed his floating tent into the lake. He climbed up and held onto the rope he had set up just in case at the lake's edge."Let me help!" said the blue-eyed man as he stuck out his hand."I can do it myself!"Elissa was about to cross to the tent. But she hesitated. Once she stuck out her foot, she backed away again. This condition continued until the men who were fishing there shook their heads. They seemed to be annoyed with Elissa's pretentious attitude.Edgar still didn't lower his hand. He patiently kept sticking out his hand while smiling. Because she had no choice and was embarrassed to be the centre of attention, Elissa finally held Edgar's hand. She also jumped to Edgar. But she and Edgar fell together because she jumped in the wrong direction. Elissa is on top, and Edgar is on the bottom. And to make matters worse, the hook connecting to the lake's edge came loose.Elissa hurriedly stood up. Her face turned red instantly. Her heart was beating wildly. Her body immedia

    "What are you looking at?" she exclaimed.Edgar pursed his lips. "There's a stain on the corner of your lip," Edgar pointed out."A tissue?" asked Elissa."I'll get some!" The man went into the tent. He began to unpack his gear. "Don't finish the noodles!" shouted Edgar."What? Who would want to eat bad food like this," replied Elissa, but she continued to slurp her noodles.Edgar returned. He sat in front of Elissa again. "I left my tissue behind!" he said with an innocent smile."So what?""Just use this!" Edgar approached Elissa. He pulled the hem of his shirt and wiped Elissa's lips."That's gross!" she screamed."Do you want to wear the shirt like before, or do you want me to clean it with a kiss?""Iu, that's disgusting! Our marriage was forced; how would I want to be kissed by you!"Edgar laughed again. He pulled off his shirt and rubbed it on Elissa. At first, Elissa was shocked and about to refuse, but the woman stopped when her nose smelled the scent of Edgar's body. This sc

    Night fell. The night on the water turned out to be cold. Luckily, Edgar had prepared everything. He also designed a thick jacket for himself. Before going to bed, Edgar opened the cover of his floating tent. A small window on one side was used to look at the starry sky.After everything was done, Edgar went back into the tent."When are we going home, Gar?" Elissa asked."Tomorrow, I have to go to Lebanon, and you have to go to Singapore. At dawn, we go home," Edgar replied. The man then turned on a small LED light and was about to hang it on one of the tent's support poles. But just as Edgar was about to do so, Elissa prevented him."Can you just turn off the lights? The moon is enough to light us up tonight.Edgar turned to Elissa when he heard his wife's words. "Ok," he replied, putting the LED light back into his bag. Edgar then lay down next to Elissa."No blanket?" she asked.Edgar shook his head. "I only brought one. Just for you."Elissa got up. She then covered Edgar. Edgar,

    Edgar stared at the ceiling. Her fingers twitched. He repeatedly wanted to speak but couldn't. His forehead furrowed. He had trouble starting a conversation. Being alone with a girl who looked so much like Balqis made Edgar nervous. The man closed his eyes for a moment. His thumb touched the wedding ring around his ring finger."So... are you married?" asked Naia.Edgar opened his eyes. He looked at Naia. He inhaled for a moment before finally opening his mouth. "Yes.""Why didn't you bring your wife here?""She... had some business in Singapore.""I see. ...." Naia nodded her head. Her fingers tapped on the notebook she was carrying. Edgar exhaled. The elevator ride was short but felt long when he was with Naia. She repeatedly looked at the numeric display above the elevator doors. Although the screen showed the numbers quickly, somehow, the numbers never stopped, and the elevator door opened."Um... why did Ms. Naia recommend me? Looks like we're ....""Just call me Naia.""Sorry?"

    Elissa pressed the call option again. She waited for a while. This time, it was even worse. Not picked up but rejected. Elissa swallowed. She tried again. Fritz needs to answer the call."What is he doing rejecting my call?" Elissa wondered.When a thought popped into her head, her eyes widened. "No-no. There's no way he's doing that. There's no way Fritz is ...."She couldn't continue. She tried repeatedly to call Fritz to no avail.Meanwhile, in a room, Fritz was interrogating someone. He sat with one leg propped up on the other. He folded his hand. His eyes were as cold as a polar bear stalking its prey."Still not talking?" Fritz asked.The person he asked was still silent. Blood covered his face. But he remained silent. The breathing of the two men beside him was already laboured. They were too tired to carry out Fritz's orders.Fritz got up from his seat and approached the man he was holding. That person also looked at Fritz with a cynical gaze. He looked away."'Fuck all of you

    One hour and forty-five minutes later, the hotel phone rang. The hotel receptionist informed Elissa that someone was waiting for her. Because she had been ready all along, she hurried downstairs. Dressed in a black Gucci branded dress, Elissa went downstairs. She also wore kohl, this time to emphasize her eyes. Elissa didn't wear excessive makeup. She only applied lip gloss on her lips and wore natural-coloured powder. She didn't want to look ugly, but she didn't want to look pretty. The point was only one: don't let Fritz fall under her spell.But none of that applied. Even if Elissa was transformed into a witch, Fritz was still mesmerized. When she came out of the elevator, Fritz's eyes widened. He froze. To him, Elissa was like Dewi Nawang Wulan, who came down from heaven, and Fritz was like Jaka Tarub, who was ready to pick her up. Fortunately, Fritz wore sunglasses so his sparkling eyes would not be seen."'Let's go!" said Elissa, not wanting to linger. She wanted to start her d

    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

    Ira continued Desmond's struggle. She started to meet the people behind Fritz. Ira was fed up with just being a behind-the-scenes supporter. 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. If this man is still with Fritz, our efforts will have been in vain," Ira explained.From all the repor

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. They looked at each other, unable to believe the news they were hearing. The couple knew very well that Edgar had experienced climbing a mountain. He couldn't disappear.Mustafidz immediately gathered all his family and students in the dormitory.

    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
