Edward looked at Kyla with an expression that was hard to interpret mixture of firmness and concern. His voice was low but firm as he said,

"I can't lie that I have a plan behind all of this. But trust me, I won't do anything to harm you. I promise."

Kyla looked at Edward doubtfully. Her lips parted slightly as if she wanted to ask further questions, but she refrained.

Edward continued, "For now, just enjoy the great thing that happened to you. You deserve it. But there's one more thing you should know." He paused for a moment, allowing his words to receive Kyla's full attention. "If at any time you feel like someone is following you, don't be afraid. It's me. I just want to make sure you're safe."

Kyla fell silent. My feelings were a mixture of confusion and curiosity. She knew Edward had something to hide, but he was so convincing that it was hard to argue with him.

"What do you mean?" asked Kyla finally, her voice trembling slightly. "Why do you have to be on guard like that?"

    Ricky stepped into the restaurant with a tense look on his face. His gaze swept the room until he found Richard lounging in one corner, a glass of wine in his hand. When Richard saw Ricky approach, his eyebrows raised slightly, but he remained calm, like someone who was never in a hurry."Ricky?" he greeted in a casual yet observant tone. "What have you been looking for? Anything important?" Ricky took a deep breath, trying to control the anger he was holding in his chest. 'Yeah, you could say that,' he replied, pulling out a chair and sitting across from Richard without waiting for an invitation.Richard raised his wine glass, taking a small sip before saying, 'Tell me, what do you want?'Ricky answered straightforwardly. 'Do you no longer intend to take action against Kyla? Are you just going to stand by and watch Edward get bolder?'Richard was silent, looking at Ricky with an unpredictable gaze. His eyes were cold like he was judging the next move in a complicated chess game. The

    Kyla stepped out of her workplace after a full day of work. The cold night air greeted her, and she stood for a moment at the door, looking around, hoping to spot Edward in the crowd. She sighed softly when she saw no sign of him.Her steps halted when, in the distance, a car seemed to be watching her movements and slowly approaching her. Kyla's heart started racing, and panic crept into her chest.However, before the mysterious car got any closer, the sound of another engine roaring caught Kyla's attention. Another car drove faster and stopped right in front of her. The window of the car rolled down, revealing Edward's serious yet calming face."Edward?" Kyla breathed a sigh of relief, the anxiety pressing on her chest instantly dissipating. Without a second thought, she opened the car door and quickly got inside, feeling safe by his side.Edward stared at Kyla for a moment, making sure no one was following him before he drove the car quietly but vigilantly. "Are you okay?" he asked,

    After traveling for a few minutes, the car Edward and Kyla were traveling in finally arrived at Kyla's parents' residence. The mansion stood majestically, but the atmosphere that greeted them was far from warm. Anna, Kyla's mother, and her husband stood at the door with expressions that clearly showed their displeasure towards Edward.'Have you come?' Anna opened the conversation with a cold tone despite trying to maintain good manners.'Yes, Father, Mother,' Kyla replied, trying to be friendly despite her obvious awkwardness. 'What was it that called us here yesterday?' she asked, trying to understand the meaning of the sudden invitation.The atmosphere grew tense as Anna folded her arms across her chest, giving Edward a disdainful look. 'You must already know the purpose of our summons, so there's no need for pleasantries,' she said in a sharp tone. 'Edward, you see the state my daughter is in! You should know better!'Edward remained calm, standing with a firm posture and neutral ga

    Anna looked stunned, not expecting her daughter and Edward to speak so strongly. However, her anger was still evident on her face. 'All right, Kyla,' she said coldly. 'If you've chosen your path, don't ever come back crying to us if one day your life is ruined. Don't ever come back to us for help.'Kyla nodded slowly, tears almost welling up in the corners of her eyes. But she stood her ground, showing no weakness. 'I won't ask anything of you, Mum,' she said calmly. 'I only hope that, one day, you will understand that happiness cannot be bought with inheritance or status.'Edward touched Kyla's back gently, giving her his support without saying anything. The two of them then turned and walked out of the house with their heads held high, leaving Anna and her husband in a tense silence.In the car, Edward turned to Kyla, who sat beside him, silently staring out the window. 'You've done very well,' he said in a soft yet confident tone.Kyla turned to Edward, her eyes blazing with an emo

    The rain continued to pour heavily outside, creating an even darker atmosphere. In the car, Kyla continued to cry, her fear so real and deep. Her body trembled, and her tears flowed endlessly. Edward, who felt helpless seeing her like that, could only hug Kyla gently, trying to calm the girl down with his presence."Kyla, everything is safe. I'm here," Edward whispered, his voice low and soothing, though he found it difficult to hide his worry. However, Kyla only sobbed harder, drowning in a sense of trauma that never really went away.The trauma was deep. Kyla had been a prisoner of war many years ago when Jupi's army kidnapped her. She was kept in a dark warehouse for days without knowing if she would survive. When rescue finally came, the sounds of guns blasting, bombs exploding, and the bright flashes of fire etched deep scars into her memory. He survived, but the soldier who rescued him - whose face he never even recognized - was reportedly killed during the battle. There was onl

    "My prince got information about that girl," Han replied."Really? Then come to me as soon as possible."Yes Prince." Han replied quicklyWith his heart pounding, Edward opened the attachment containing the complete data of the girl he had been searching for. As he read every detail in the report, his eyes widened, his surprise unconcealable."The girl is from... the Wijaya family?" muttered Edward quietly, but his tone of voice sounded strained. The Wijaya family was the extended family name of his wife, Kyla. But who was the girl?The data mentioned three names that instantly made his mind spin. Kyla and Diandra? Only those two had experienced the misfortune of being kidnapped during the war.Edward got up from his chair and walked over to the large window overlooking the city, trying to organize his thoughts. The morning sunlight hit his face which was now filled with a mixture of emotions-curiosity, doubt, and a hint of fear."Kyla..." the name escaped his lips without him realiz

    Klya's initially fast pace toward the office suddenly stopped when a black car stopped suddenly beside her. The back door of the car opened, and before Kya could react, two large men got out with swift movements."Hi, watch out!" shouted a pedestrian in the distance, but it was too late. The two men deftly restrained Kya, one holding both her hands while the other covered her mouth with a wet cloth. The spicy scent filled her nose, making her mind start to blur."Get in now," one of the men said coldly, forcing her into the car. Klya tried to struggle, but her strength was slowly weakening. Her vision began to blur, and before everything went dark, only the sound of the car door closing hard and the roar of the engine could be heard.Where was she now? And what did they want with him?As Kita started to wake up, her head felt heavy, and her vision was still blurry. He found himself in a dark and dank-smelling place, Kyla sat in the corner of the room with her hands tied. Her e

    The masked man again forced Kyla with a cold and threatening tone. “Call your husband immediately!” he hissed sharply as he shoved the cell phone into Kyla's hand.Kyla hugged herself, trembling with fear, but what little courage she had left in her emerged at the most crucial moment. She shook her head slowly, her face full of anxiety but the look in her eyes still refused. “No! Don't hurt her. Whatever your problem with him is, I'm sure it can be solved without violence! He's just an ordinary guy, he can't possibly have a big problem with someone like... you!”Her words drew the man's ire. He approached with heavy steps, his right hand clenched tightly, showing how easily he could use violence if he wanted to. Kyla winced, her heart pounding loudly like a war drum.“Shut up!” snapped the masked man, his voice booming like thunder in the quiet room. The cell phone in his hand almost slipped when he swung it at Kyla. “You don't know what he's doing! You think he's a regular guy?

    Just as General Tang and General Seng of the Jupy Nation had planned.The night sky was dark, with the moon covered by grey clouds. The road to the Apartment was silent, accompanied only by the roar of Edward's quietly moving car. Inside the car, Edward checked his watch. "We should arrive on time," he said to his bodyguard in the front seat. "Yes, Prince Edward. This journey should be uneventful," replied the bodyguard, his eyes vigilantly monitoring the road. However, not long after, the sound of tires squealing broke the silence. From the opposite direction, three large vehicles sped up, blocking the road. From those cars, a group of people dressed all in black got out with sophisticated weapons in hand.Edward's bodyguards reacted immediately, drawing their pistols, but the surprise attack from the ambushers was too fast.

Magnificent decorations were arranged in every corner of the room, fresh flowers adorned the main hall, and crystal chandeliers shone brightly, creating a luxurious and festive atmosphere. From the outside, everything looked perfect, but not everyone inside had good intentions.Diandra sat on one of the large sofas in the living room with Ricky. Her face still showed bruises from her last encounter with Edward, but they shared a proud smile.“Ha! I can't wait to see Edward fall in this game,” Ricky said in a cocky tone while crossing his arms over his chest.“But... what if Richard really doesn't want to marry Kyla anymore?” asked Diandra, her tone slightly worried though she tried to hide it.“You said yourself that Richard doesn't want Kyla anymore. What will we do if that happens?”Ricky chuckled with a confident expression. “Take it easy, Diandra. I've already arra

    Meanwhile, in Snowflake City, Edward continued his day, not knowing that the great enemy of his people, the Jupy nation, was already after him. His every move is complicated, not only by his strained relationship with Kyla but also by a threat from beyond the kingdom of Mars that may shake the world he has known for so long.The Jupy people, who have long held a grudge for their defeat five years ago, are now preparing for revenge. They deploy troops to scout Edward's every move, infiltrating the city to ensure that they take advantage of all opportunities. Little did they know, however, that their plans were already known.Tanyi, Edward's loyal subordinate who had been tasked with protecting the prince, had received information about the presence of Jupy's army, which was secretly lurking. As an astute and vigilant man, Tanyi immediately reported to Edward about the approaching threat without telling anyone except those who were absolutely necessary."General, we have caught wind of

    A heavy voice rang out from behind the comms, muffled by the monotonous ticking of the hospital machines. "Keep watching. Make sure he's not aware of your presence. We need to know what the next step is."The man nodded, though no one was looking. His eyes followed Edward and Kyla as they moved further away, towards the hospital meeting room located at the end of the corridor. His face showed no emotion, but there was something mysterious behind his eyes."Understood, General. I will not lose them from my sight." His shadow again disappeared among the hospital's neon lights, which reflected coldly on the floor like a figure that could not be caught. He continued to observe from a distance, watching their every move carefully.Meanwhile, Kyla and Edward had arrived at the apartment. After the apartment door closed, the atmosphere was noticeably quieter. True to his promise, Edward went straight to the kitchen to prepare dinner. His hands were skillfully preparing the dishes, although

    Only a short time after Kya's parents' departure. Edward appeared with a glass of warm drink. His face looked tired, but his smile remained gentle. He was trying to calm Kyla down."Are you okay?" asked Edward, approaching her with cautious steps.Kyla, who had been pensive, was slightly startled by Edward's voice. She looked up, and her eyes softened upon seeing him before her. "Yes, I'm fine," she replied, though her tone sounded weak. "You're from..." Kyla's speech trailed off as she took a closer look at Edward's face. One cheek looked slightly red, and a faint bruise was beginning to appear. Kyla frowned, her heart instantly filled with worry. "Edward, your face... What happened? Are you hurt? Is it because of those kidnappers?"Edward was silent for a moment. He took a deep breath before answering in a flat tone, but his eyes avoided Kyla's gaze. "No..." he said softly. "It was your mother who hit me."Kyla was dumbfounded. "Mom?" she repeated, not believing what she had just

    The sound of the slap echoed along the hallway, breaking the silence that had previously been filled only by footsteps. A few passers-by stopped their steps and turned their heads curiously. They immediately turned away when they saw Anna's cold face and Edward's shocked expression.Edward was rooted to the spot. The slap turned his face sideways, and his left hand slowly touched his cheek, which was starting to turn red. The slap was not only physically painful but also hit his pride hard.With eyes full of disbelief, Edward raised his gaze to see who dared to do such a thing."Mom?" he asked in a low voice, almost a whisper. "What did you do? Why did you slap me?"However, Anna, the woman standing in front of him with a face full of anger, did not show the slightest hint of remorse. Her eyes were blazing, and her voice sounded loud as she retorted."Mother? Don't ever call me mother, Edward, because I'm not your mother!" she exclaimed with great emotion.Edward was stunned.

    Meanwhile, Edward, who usually always exuded absolute calm, showed subtle changes on his face. His gaze narrowed, his jaw hardened, and the look in his eyes conveyed curiosity mixed with anger. He tried to make sure that the figure in front of him wasn't just a delusion or a mistake. However, there was no doubt-the man was real, standing there with a sly smile that deliberately provoked his emotions.“Ricky?” Kyla finally spoke, her tone trembling with confusion and disappointment. Her body felt stiff, like it was being stabbed by a harsh reality. The man who had just entered was Ricky, Ricky looked at the two of them, and his eyes immediately rounded as he saw Edward standing proudly, without a single injury.. In contrast, his men were scattered on the floor, looking battered with wounds on their faces. Ricky gritted his teeth, his expression turning hateful.“Edward... you?” muttered Ricky, both surprised and angry. He stepped forward, pointing at Edward with a vengeful gaze. “S
