With great impudence, Aniya and Mia suddenly came to Adrian’s house at this time, only to see Adrian’s face, which was so perfect that it resembled Russell’s. Aniya, who at first did not realize that it was Adrian, immediately hugged the man because she missed Russel so much. Adrian immediately frowned when he saw Aniya’s very strange behavior in his eyes. But he also understands why Aniya could act like that.“I’m very grateful and really, really suspect that you’re still alive. I really miss you and worry about you right now.” Aniya continues to hug Adrian. He didn’t realize that Adrian was giving her a disgusted look at this moment. Aniya doesn’t realize that the person she’s hugging right now isn’t Russell, but Adrian.“What are you doing? Don’t hug me like this.”Aniya frowned, then raised her head to look at the man’s face. At first she didn’t understand at all, but after a few minutes of processing all the information, she finally understood that the person she was hugging was
Incomparable pleasure was felt by the five. Their faces lit up, some even cried. “Huhu, I miss you so much, Daddy,” Delilah said.“From this photo, it can be seen that Daddy is at the airport. Daddy looks so healthy and handsome as usual!” Emery said.“I’m sure Daddy will be home soon,” said Adeline.The others nodded their heads. “This good news. Should we tell Mommy?” asked Cerys.The others seemed to be thinking. “Of course! After Daddy left, Mommy was so gloomy! Her smile and laugh looks so fake these days! We must tell her immediately! I want to see Mommy’s sweet smile Come back!” Baylor said.“In that case. When Mommy comes home later, we will tell Mommy this Happy news!” Emery said. The others nodded their heads in agreement with Emery’s words. They couldn’t wait to tell their mommy. It’s not in vain that they advertise and wait a long time. Although they also have to spend a lot of money. Does not matter. Most importantly, they know their Daddy is still alive. Their little fam
Russell's return, of course, shocked many people. Even though there were rumors that Russell was dead. But because the big Houston family gives no justification. They all chose not to utter a single word making those rumors dissipate from time to time. However, it remains a subject of discussion for some circles over the mystery.“It turns out that he just left? But why? He has gone for so long. Is this his strategy? To make his family business grow to be more stable and grow bigger and stronger than before? Is he secretly making innovations out there?”"If that's what he's doing. We must be prepared. Surely those innovations are something amazing. Mr. Russell’s innovation can always impress anyone!”"Yes, you are absolutely right!""I can not wait! We will be able to see the glory of the Houston group again!”That was the talk of several people who saw the sudden comeback of Adrian with his new face. Adrian had heard several other whispers. But he really didn't care. He put on his c
There were only inches left until Adrian’s lips touched the soft surface of Lunatte’s. But Lunatte’s eyes immediately opened when she felt a warm breath hit her face. Her reflex immediately pushed this stranger in front of her away.The man growled.“Arghh!” He held his nose, which was hit by Lunatte. It hurts there.“Fuck!” the man swore.‘Is my nose okay?’ Adrian is afraid that there is something wrong with his nose, which has been surgery on.Meanwhile, Lunatte, who heard the growling and swearing, immediately frowned. Her eyes sharpened. Because only the night light was on, Lunatte couldn’t see clearly who this person was. But from his voice, it seemed very familiar. A man she knew well.‘But, impossible.’ The voice just now was Adrian’s voice. Lunatte knew his voice clearly. But isn’t Adrian already dead?“Adrian?” Lunatte called. She took something from the nightstand, then ran towards the light switch. Lunatte felt in danger if she was with Adrian in a dark room. Meanwhile, Adr
“Where have you been? I have reported your loss to the police. But the result was none. You were nowhere to be found. I’m almost desperate, Russell.”Adrian wasn’t surprised anymore when Lunatte asked him about Russell’s disappearance. He would have already prepared an answer that would make Lunatte believe it. But that question would not be answered now. He will tell Lunatte later.“Shh… I’ll explain later. It’s too late now. Your eyes are already swollen. You need to sleep. And your leg is hurt. The wound also needs regeneration time to heal. Sleep will help. Now, sleep. I will continue to hug you so that you fall asleep quickly,” replied Adrian. Of course, Lunatte didn’t like that answer. She is very curious. It could be seen very clearly through the look in her eyes.But seeing Russell, who seemed very tired and needed rest, it seemed that what her husband said had some truth to it. So, Lunatte had no other choice but to agree.“Okay. But you have to explain it to me in the mornin
“DADDYYYY!!!” They all ran and hugged the leg they thought was their daddy. Adrian immediately crouched down. Put on a smile, then returned the hug.“Daddy misses you so much,” Adrian said. His voice sounded so gentle that anyone who heard it would think it was a sincere expression. In fact, not at all. Really extraordinary acting.“We know Daddy must come back to us! Daddy promised and we know Daddy always keeps his word!” said Delilah.Adrian didn’t reply. He looked into Delilah’s eyes, which were now cupping his face with those small hands. Russell’s daughter is absolutely gorgeous. The perfect blend of Russell and Lunatte. Really the right proportions.Delilah looked up at her daddy with admiring eyes. Her eyes seemed to twinkle. That seemingly sincere smile stunned Adrian.‘Is Russell that important to them?’ One thought was bothering Adrian’s current thinking.“Daddy, I love you so much!” Delilah said, after which she hugged her father’s neck. Again Adrian was stunned. This was
Russell's gaze sharpened. He really didn't like the topic that the man in front of him was talking about. Especially with the look that the man gave, as if threatening Russell that something dangerous would happen to his wife and children because Adrian was with them."Just die then. But... Do you want to know what will happen to them? If you die?" The man was getting closer. His two hands held the iron bars. The more he put his head in as if his head was going to go in."Don't you dare hurt my wife and children. Give me access to Adrian. Such a coward. Treat me like this. Handle me like a real man!" Russell said.The man in front laughed so hard after listening to what Russell said."You want to say that to my master and hope he will be affected? Hahaha! You won't! My master knows to handle you. And this is the best way. Let you be confined here. Until you are old, then you will die by yourself,” said the man.Russell didn't answer.“Then after that, your five children will follow. M
Caroline and her husband are waiting impatiently. Both of them seem very excited. Especially Caroline. Even her eyes were sparkling with tears. God answered her prayer all this time now. Russell is back. And now she really wants to hug her son. If she could, Caroline would love to hug her two sons. Unfortunately, that is impossible. But even so, even though she could only hug Russell, she is extremely grateful.On the other hand, Adrian continues to guide Lunatte. The man was still preoccupied with his own thoughts. Lunatte said that his parents are in the living room. Together with Lunatte’s mother and the quintuplets. The hurt was still lodged in Adrian, so he was very hesitant to meet his parents. Or you could say, his ex-parents because Adrian had cut off the family bond between them.Adrian had not yet turned his head to see Lunatte’s expression, who had been looking at him with a strange look.Finally, Adrian could see his parents. They are seen chatting with Lunatte’s mother an
Russell was speechless throughout process before the funeral. All parties were, of course, shocked after knowing what happened. During that time, Russel could only lock himself in his room when Adrian's body was still in the hospital and had not been returned home to be buried after that. Russel also doesn't care about Aniya or the others anymore. He only cares about Adrian. During that process, Alex didn't dare to talk to Russel. Just know that it's not the right time. Alex also quite understands that the best way to deal with this situation is to let Russel alone first. "How are we going to cover it from the media?" Lunatte suddenly came into the room with some food for Russell. She sat right beside Russell. Feel sorry to see the man's face that looks like not maintained. Russel looks very messy because of Adrian's death. He may be depressed. "I'll get some of my men to take care of that matter to the media. I'll make sure, they don't need to know about this. We'll figure out more
Adrian took two guns. His movements were so fast that no one could hold him back. Some of the men who had been watching him earlier were too careless to notice Adrian's fast movements. They were even very surprised when gunshots filled the room. BANG! BANG! BANG! "Come on, fight me if you can!" Adrian challenged everyone there while continuing to pull the triggers of the two guns many times. Even under these circumstances, he was still able to focus on shooting whoever needed to be shot. Even though it was Aniya who paid for many of the men there, Adrian was still able to target them one by one without injuring Russel, Alex, Lunatte, and also the children. The sudden and extremely fast attack, of course, made Aniya feel very surprised. She wasn't holding a gun like Adrian. She only held the knife from Mia earlier. Aniya tried to avoid the bullets from Adrian's gun. She looked for her other gun. "Adrian!" Russel shouted at Adrian who seemed to have lost control when he fired the tw
Russel and Alex and their four comrades are quite strong indeed. It took them a very long time to punch and kick their enemies. Russel and Alex nearly beat everyone Aniya paid to fight them. Their bodies were also battered. Russel didn't even care anymore about the pain from the wounds on his face and all over his body. "Shit!" Russell swore when one of the guys hit him on the back of the neck. His neck felt very heavy. Even his head felt very dizzy. "Russel, hold on!" Alex helps Russel by hitting one of the people who hit Russel earlier. They managed to incapacitate several people. Alex approached Russel who was currently holding his nape. Russell couldn't even stand up. "Hey, are you okay?" Four of Alex and Russel's comrades were still beating up some of the guys. Adrian himself tries to escape and even intends to help Russell. He didn't care about their past, as long as it was for Lunatte's safety, Adrian would do anything. But unfortunately, Adrian was completely unable to li
"Damn, you guys!" Because there was a commotion and the guards were also aware of Adrian's presence, in the end, there was a fight between Adrian and several guards who had been paid by Aniya. Even though his body was still very weak, Adrian was still trying to beat them. Even though it looked so impossible, Adrian didn't give up so easily every time he thought of Lunatte. "Come here! Fight me!" Adrian picked up a log and swung it at the few people. He could no longer rely on the strength of his own arms. He would collapse any minute if he didn't rest a bit. Some of the people also smiled lightly at Adrian. They seemed to know that Adrian had no strength anymore. That's why they took advantage of this opportunity to push harder and corner Adrian. Adrian felt pain all over his body because several of the men punched and kicked him. He couldn't escape at all. His steps and hand swings were also unsteady. "Shit!" Adrian could only curse when he felt blood trickling down the corner o
"Lunatte left with her children." That night Alex called one of the men he had ordered to monitor Lunatte. Someone who has been spying on or has been keeping Lunatte and her children at home since yesterday. Alex, who heard the news that Lunatte was out in the middle of the night with her five children, was of course, surprised. He immediately felt that something was wrong here. In fact, he firmly believed that something bad would happen to the woman and her children. "Where are they going at this time of night? Did you see anyone else there?" he asked. For a moment he didn't hear anything on the other side except for the sound of a vehicle. He was sure his man was driving to follow Lunatte. "I don't know, actually it's been a while and I lost track of her car." Alex was even more surprised to hear that. Without even responding, he immediately hangs up and tells Russell about this. Needless to say, of course, Russell was much more surprised to hear that. He tried not to think ab
After a long journey, the car carrying Lunatte's and the others had almost arrived at the place where Adrian might actually be. Lunatte's view could not be separated from her surroundings which were filled with forests and shrubs. ‘Russell where did he go? Why did he pass on a street that is rarely traveled by local residents like this?’ Lunatte grumbled inside for fear that something would happen to Russell that she could not see his face. They were afraid to go there because on the right and left there was nothing but dense forest. What's more, Lunatte didn't know where her husband was going. Why do they have to go through a narrow and very suspicious road? "Mommy, shouldn't we just go home? So far, we haven't found Daddy or his car either." Baylor advises Lunatte not to waste time looking for Adrian. Lunatte thought quickly, thinking about what decision she should make right away. What Baylor said is true. They didn't know what would happen if they continued on their aimless jou
Until now, Aniya has not received news of Russell's departure from the mansion. It makes her feel calm. Aniya also doesn't want to waste her time. She must kill the quintuplets immediately. Even though it was already night, Aniya was not daunted. For her... whether night or day, it is not an important thing. Most importantly, she could fulfill her wish to kill the quintuplets. And Adrian already knows that Aniya in this country. Adrian already thought that Aniya would do this. But he didn't think that Aniya would do it this very fast. Just yesterday he said that he failed and did not want to kill the quintuplets, now Aniya has arrived where he is. Aniya had deliberately invited Adrian to meet in a quiet place. Adrian complied, although there was a little fear in him. As a man, Adrian must still face everything. What's more, Adrian promised he would protect Lunatte and the quintuplets from now on. A promise that Adrian made without any element of coercion and Adrian made it conscious.
Russell manages to get out of Aniya's mansion. He would contact his friend to help him return to his home country. With quick steps, Russell walked away from the mansion area. At the same time, Russell saw a taxi passing by. Russell quickly stopped him and asked the taxi driver to take him to his destination. Now, the sun has begun to appear on the eastern horizon. Russell was sure, there must have been a lot of shops open. After all, it's a big city and it has twenty-four-hour life. Likewise with the shopping center. Of course, Russell didn't have to worry about the remaining time. Because maybe, soon Aniya's mansion will be crowded with news about his escape from there and surely Aniya will give orders to all the bodyguards to search all the places that Russell might visit. Russell deliberately asked the taxi driver to go to a shopping area that was quite far from Aniya's mansion so he could buy himself a little more time. When Russell arrived at the shopping center, he immediatel
After locking the walk-in closet door, Russell lay down on the bed. Sweat dripped all over his body, wetting all his clothes. Tired, of course, struck. Russell closed his eyes for a while until finally Russell now saw the alarm clock on the table. It's still half past nine in the evening and the time to dawn is still far away. Russell won't run away now because Aniya's mansion is very well guarded. The man deliberately waited until dawn. The time when the guards were starting to let their guard down because they were tired or sleepy. Not infrequently, some fall asleep where they stand guard. "I better rest for a bit. I still have to use my strength to escape from here. I can't be weak in the slightest." Russell now prefers to sleep first. He also set an alarm so he can wake up in the right time. His plan cannot fail!While Russell was sleeping on the bed, the two bodyguards and the two maids who were locked up in the walk-in closet earlier tried to escape. But their efforts failed. Ru
