TOO LATE

"Do you sure you want to come?" asked Edgar when Elissa came down with him in the elevator.

Elissa nodded. "I have something to do near the hotel you mentioned. So it's all right," said Elissa.

Elissa lied originally. Last night, she could not imagine Edgar who wanted to meet Naia again. Today was the last day of work, and Edgar wasn't allowed permission. Edgar needed to explain additional details to the hotel owner they were redecorating. Even the contractor would pick Edgar up if necessary.

And that night, no one else but Naia called Edgar. Of course, hearing the voice of the woman who bored her, Elissa instantly exploded. She grabbed Edgar's phone and answered Naia's words.

"He will go with me!" roared Elissa.

Therefore, Elissa followed her husband away. Elissa even rented a car for a few days. Money didn't matter to her; comfort was the only thing that mattered. And by renting a Lamborghini car, Elissa wanted to show her caste in front of Naia. It was easy for the woman to intimid

    "Hi, Lissa!" greeted Cassie from afar. She waved her hand excitedly."Elissa!" called Ami, who had also just arrived.The two people immediately hugged Elissa."You guys finally came, too. I've been waiting for you!" chided Elissa."You asked for it impromptu. Fortunately, my boyfriend understands. If not, I would've refused," said Cassie."That's right. It's a good thing you also paid for the airfare and hotel here. Otherwise, I would've refused to go to Lebanon," Ami chided.Cassie raised her glasses. "So... what do I need with the only rich bestie I have?" she asked later."I'll explain later at the hotel. Now hurry to the lobby. The driver is already waiting."Cassie and Ami followed Elissa. They each carried a suitcase and a backpack. Cassie looked the most troubled as she was also taking a tote bag. Although her two friends looked troubled, Elissa had no intention of helping. She just kept walking as if she was an employer followed by her servants. Cassie and Ami looked at each

    "Look at the person!" Elissa pointed to Naia, who was standing behind Edgar. Edgar's work had indeed been completed; now, it was a prepaLissaion event for the opening. The hotel owner wanted everyone to attend, including the employees who designed the interior."She's so perfect!" said Ami."I hate to admit it, but that bitch is beautiful. She's prettier than the three of us.""I swear if Edgar isn't interested in Naia, he must have a disorder."Elissa sighed. Her eyes narrowed. "Are you guys here to help me or what?""Help how? That Naia is already an angelic specimen. Her body is so sexy, and she's so beautiful," Ami said."She is not an angel; she's the devil. How could an angel seduce someone's husband," snapped Elissa.The three women are now hiding on a bench in the hotel garden, watching Naia and everyone's movements."You asked how to help me earlier, right? Let me give you an easy example!" Elissa stood up from hiding. There was a frisbee, a dog toy flying saucer that she bou

    Edgar went home. He neither won nor lost. When Fritz floated towards him with a knife, Edgar quickly put the knife away by kicking Fritz's hand. After being kicked several times by Elissa, Edgar realized how to boot correctly. Edgar nodded his head. Being Elissa's punching bag turned out to be helpful, too.After Fritz lost his weapon, Edgar rushed forward. He repeatedly smashed Fritz's body with punches he learned from boxing and then ended it by kicking Fritz with a spinning kick. Fritz went flying, and Edgar was gone before he woke up. It wasn't that Edgar was afraid. He didn't want to make trouble in a foreign land.With the card given to him by Elissa the other day, Edgar opened his hotel room. He then closed it slowly. Edgar looked at his watch. It was already two in the morning. It took a long time to escape Fritz and ensure he wasn't followed.Edgar exhaled. He set her briefcase down on a sofa. Edgar lants his coat on a hanger and loosens his tie. Tomorrow was the inauguration

    "You're okay, right?" asked Edgar when he saw Elissa, who repeatedly yawned.Elissa just nodded. She rubbed her eyes. Last night, she couldn't sleep. More precisely, she couldn't sleep because she was too excited. Shortly after she fell off the sofa, she was lying next to Edgar. At first, she was eager to continue her dream of kissing Edgar in real life, but it turned out the other way around.At that time, Elissa was about to tilt his body, but just as she did, Edgar had already shifted his body. The man was now facing Elissa. The couple were now staring at each other.Elissa swallowed. Her face turned red. Her lips smiled. Her heart was beating wildly. She couldn't do it. If her heart continued like this, she might die. Elissa was about to switch positions and go back to the sofa, but again, Edgar was acting up. This time, he raised his arms, hugging Elissa.Elissa was still pensive. Her body was all stiff. She was perfectly immobilized. She was eager to leave, but why was her body

    Fritz squeezed his watch until it shattered the screen. His teeth chattered. His eyebrows knitted together. He really couldn't help himself. His eyes, which used to stare at things coldly, were now smouldering. There was a grudge there. A grievance that made him unable to sleep or eat."Sir?" called out a Fritz subordinate.Immediately, a bullet whizzed by. It passed right next to the servant's ear. "Not now!" snapped Fritz instantly. He didn't move from his spot. He even fired the bullet from a sideways position. Only his hand was extended, holding the gun. Had he actually faced his opponent, the bullet would have killed his subordinate.The servant Fritz fell to the ground. He was speechless. His heart was beating so fast. If he had moved just a little, he would have lost his life."Go!" said Fritz.The servant retreated in an orderly fashion. He closed the door and left.Fritz couldn't take it anymore. Some time ago, he contacted Elissa, asking for something straightforward."Why

    "Oh no! We're not going to use an expensive car for this event," prevented Edgar when he saw Elissa about to pick up her cellphone to make a call."What? Then what are we going to use? Taxi?"Edgar shook his head. He smiled. Then proudly, he spread his hands, pointing to an old bicycle parked neatly beside the hotel."Seriously? I've never used a bicycle. I'm sure I'll be sore." Edgar tugged at the corner of his lips. He smiled crookedly. "If you don't want to get sore, hold on tight. Or you can stand, too."The man then stepped closer to his bike. He no longer cared about the protesting Elissa.Even though she was extremely lazy, she actually liked being treated like this. Last night, she was so touched by her husband's treatment. Instead of the man sleeping on the bed, he slept on the floor, honouring his wife.It's just that riding a bicycle is another thing. Elissa had not touched it once. When she was a child, she never asked to buy a bike. Instead, she asked for a small car tha

    "Let me get you a drink first," Edgar said. He then moved to the bar table in the corner of the room.Seeing the opportunity, Ami and Cassie immediately approached Elissa's table. They weren't invited to the inauguration of the new face of the hotel, but since they were staying at the hotel, they could freely enter the free event. Of course, their stay wasn't their own money, but Elissa's."You said you wanted to reveal. But you're so stiff," Cassie teased."That's right. You're like a mannequin paired with a human, you know. You're so flat-faced like you have no emotions. You're like a living corpse, you know."Elissa held her cheeks. "Really?" she asked incredulously."It's useless to put on makeup, but your face looks like a zombie who can only gawk."Elissa tapped her forehead. "I can't believe how flat my expression is?"Ami took out her gadget. She played a video of Elissa's arrival from the moment the woman got off the bicycle with Edgar. Although Elissa looked happy, as soon a

    Fritz continued to look at Edgar. However, what he wanted still needs to materialize. Edgar was still sitting while talking with Elissa's two friends. Nothing had changed. Her drink was also gone. Fritz was only dumbfounded when he realized that the colour of Edgar's drink differed from what he served. Edgar's glass, this time, was brown instead of red.Fritz wandered around. He searched for where Edgar's poison drink should be. Every corner, his eyes explored. But still nothing strange. There was no commotion because someone died, nor was anyone lying around.Fritz kept looking. And suddenly, his chest felt tight. His heart was beating very fast. Cold sweat poured down his body. Fritz thought quickly, trying to figure out what had happened. Then, when he looked at his desk, he was shocked to see the drink Edgar should have drunk on his desk."Why?" he whispered.It was no one's doing. No one wanted to kill Fritz. It was purely his fault for not seeing when he took a drink from a wait

    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

    News of Edgar's disappearance reached Mustafidz's ears. The search had entered its fourth day. And all that was found was a bloody shirt. 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. They immediately prayed together for Edgar.On the other hand, Sindi, who was visiting the orphanage that Edgar u

    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. Fortunately, the water didn't break when Edgar fell into the ravine."I have to g

    "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
