Russell frowned at the conversation between the two of them. He didn’t understand the topic of conversation between Adrian and Aniya at all. He should have realized long ago that Adrian and Aniya were still communicating intensely. This should no longer be something that is so surprising to him. For some reason, he only felt very worried about hearing the conversation between Adrian and Aniya. He could feel that something bad was happening here. He could sense that Adrian would soon be plotting something bad.Adrian hung up the phone with a chuckle, annoyed. He was actually quite tired of all the cooperation between himself and Aniya as well. But no matter what, Aniya became one of the people he could rely on here. He didn’t want to miss that opportunity. He will still need Aniya while his plan again is accomplished to destroy Russell’s children. He could also realize that at this time, Russel was starting to suspect himself of the agreement between himself and Aniya.“What I spoke to
Lunatte felt very frustrated with the situation that befell her at this time. She did not understand at all why the bad news hit her so many times. Moreover, for now she also felt very confused about what she was going to say to her father as well as her mother-in-law. She’s afraid to say that Adrian is dead and Russell is now missing somewhere. She was not aware that the two cases were continuous. Her parents-in-law had been calling her a lot, asking about their children. During that time Lunatte tried to lie and say that everything was fine.“I really don’t know what to tell them now. I know sooner or later they will find out. They keep calling me and won’t stop asking about Russell and Adrian, too.”Lunatte sank while staring at the view in the window. She was accompanied by Alex at this time. Alex himself was also very confused about their current state. He really wanted to help Lunatte, but he didn’t know where to start. He didn’t really get along with Russell’s parents. There wa
Until now, no one or the police have managed to find Russel, who was held captive by Adrian. Adrian guarded him very closely with some burly men there. No one suspected that Russell was there. And there is absolutely no evidence that could accuse Adrian of this.This time Adrian came back to the place to torture his own brother. He wasn’t satisfied seeing Russell suffering. He wasn’t going to give Russel an easy death because that would end all his suffering. He just wanted to see the man in pain for a long time. It’s too easy to end it all, and he doesn’t want to fast anytime soon. It will taste very bland.“Nobody’s pulled off my prowess at faking death, right? Perhaps you haven’t even thought about this yourself. I was wondering what you did when you found out about my past death. I’m sure it was a very embarrassing event. Is that right?” “ asked Adrian with a sly smile and looked at Russel. Russel has woken up from his fainting and has also realized who is holding him at this time
Adrian tried to be calm when his brother’s body was taken to the nearest hospital for treatment. He also ordered his men to ensure that no one realized that the person being investigated at that time was Russell, one of the most wanted people in this city. Along the way, he also accompanies his brother.At this moment Adrian really felt confused about his own feelings. He didn’t know where that feeling was coming from. He was only immediately touched when Russel said everything about Lunatte.Along the way, Adrian suddenly remembered his childhood. He remembered how he spent his childhood with his brother. Russel is not a humorous person or a big brother who is easy to play with. He is still a strict person but also still caring and uses his own way to express that concern for his younger sibling.Now Adrian just realized everything. He realized that his older brother cared about him. He realized all those memories. All the memories seemed to immediately slap him and shame him for doi
Statements made by the authorities in the country where Russel disappeared regarding the man’s current status were like a knife that broke Lunatte’s heart. Yes, finally her husband was declared dead. Never finding a bright spot for Russel’s disappearance made the authorities take a firm decision regarding Russell’s new status. Her breath caught in a torturous tightness. This was not the news she wanted to hear. Although the police have stopped the search a few days ago. Lunatte still has a shred of hope that her husband will be back with her and the children. Now her mind is messy, like tangled threads. On the other hand, she just wanted to accept that her husband had died. But there is something big that resists it, namely her heart. While the body of her husband has not been seen.In the next few days, the heirs or family will receive a letter from the police, namely a death certificate on behalf of Russell. This is evidence, as well as important documents that must be managed and s
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
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
