When she walked into the bar, it was jam-packed, smoky, and smelled strongly of alcohol. Many people were flirting on the sides where the light wasn’t shining. She tried to get past the people dancing in the middle until she went to a dark spot where she could see the people freely. She looked around as scattered bouncers near her seemed to be observing the surroundings.
“This bar is high-class and too strict. How can I go to the room where Mr. Torres is?”She saw a hallway that was dark because of the tiny lights of the down-mounted lights attached to the wall near the floor. She put her braided hair on her left shoulder for an excuse to look in the hallway, but she noticed a CCTV camera upstairs. “It Looks like I have to sneak around or trick something before I can get to the room.”It’s a good thing no one tried to approach her while she was making a plan if they wanted to see a scary eye. She’s been standing for a few minutes, trying to enter the room. She strolled to the room of Mr. Torres as if she didn’t know there was CCTV following her movements. She did not look suspicious because her mask was thin, but her face was still unrecognizable. And from what she saw earlier, other women have their ways of doing things. Some of them dressed as maids, and some of them didn’t even wear clothes.She’s close to the room where Mr. Torres is, doesn’t look at the CCTVs, and barely breathes. She pretended to knock a few times, but the truth is that she didn’t hit the door or make a noise because she noticed that the CCTV focused on her. Adira saw it out of the corner of her eye. She pretended to wait to be let into the room, and after a few seconds, she opened the door. Luckily, it didn’t lock, and inside, she let out all the air she had held in earlier. She noticed another entrance without a door and thought Mr. Torres and his mistress were inside. She looked around and saw nothing else or CCTV, so she slowly approached another entrance.However, a woman stopped her just as she was about to enter, so she leaned against the wall and listened. “When do you plan to file for divorce with your wife?” the voice of the woman said. She waited a few minutes before hearing a man speak, and she was sure it was Mr. Torres.“I can’t file for divorce immediately because we’ve only been married for a month.”She frowned. “Does that mean they had a child before they got married? Based on what I read, the child is a year old,” she asked herself in confusion.“Why did you marry that, Carina? You can take your child to her. I’m willing to take care of the child.” The woman’s voice seemed to struggle.“I can’t do anything because that’s what Mom wants. My only intention is to get our son that she hid, but I can’t imagine Mom will find out and marry us immediately.”She heard sobbing. “What about us, Sebastian?”“Don’t worry. I will talk to Carina about the divorce when my marriage with Carina lasts a few months. She can’t do anything because she’s not the one I love. It’s you, Diane.”She raised an eyebrow at what she heard, so when Adira saw the light switch, she pressed it to make the surroundings dark so she could enter and sit on the sofa nearby.The two were both stunned when the light in the room disappeared. “Wait, why is there no light? It doesn’t happen, and if it goes out, it comes on immediately,” the woman said.She felt someone stand up to the light switch. “I will check the light switch. It may not press it properly.” When Sebastian checked and pressed the button again, there was light in the room. “It’s okay. Why did you lose—” He paused the first time he saw her where she was sitting.They were equally scared because it was just the two of them earlier. Suddenly, another person was in that room when the light went out.“Good evening to both of you.” It’s not visible, but she’s already smirking behind her mask.Torres frowned at her. “Who are you, and how did you get in here?”She looked at his face, and her mind said, “That’s why he dares to do something stupid: because he’s handsome and can get a woman just by his face.” Her gaze shifted to the woman, who looked calm and surprised at her. “That woman is also beautiful, but why does she continue to pursue a married man?”Torres tried to approach her, but she raised her left hand. “Just stay there. Don’t even try to go near me.”“Answer my question: how did you get in here? The guard inside is so strict. Why did someone like you enter this room?” he boldly asked.“That was too brave, Mr. Torres.”He was surprised because she knew his last name. “How do you know my last name? Who are you?” he shouted, with a trace of nervousness visible on his face. And she can’t deny that he still looks handsome.Now she’s getting serious and is about to start the show. “Are you two lovers?” she asks.She received a straight answer from a woman named Diane. “Why do you need to know? Can you get out of here?”“I’m sorry, I have something else to do, and I can’t do it tomorrow.” She looked at Mr. Torres, whose name was Sebastian, based on what she heard from the woman, Diane. “As far as I know, you have a wife, but why are you with this woman?” She pointed her toward the girl.Sebastian suddenly swallowed. “How did you know I’m married?”“And have a son,” she suddenly said, and he stopped. “You already have a child and a wife, but why are you here in this place cheating on your wife just for this woman?” She even raised an eyebrow at Diane. “You seem to have forgotten you have a child and a wife. It’s unfair if you’re the only one happy now.” She stood up and went behind Sebastian. “Don’t you have a conscience?”He turned around and faced her. “This woman is the one I love and not my wife now. She is a liar and took my mom’s heart so that we could get married!”“Really? I know you were the one who willingly went to find them and tried to take your child from her, but you excluded Mrs. Torres.” She looked him in the eye. “It’s also your fault that you’re married now. If you didn’t mess up your wife and your child, if you did not meet, it did not lead to marriage. If only you’d kept quiet, and this woman was the one you focused on. Carina should not have been your wife now, but you will never see your child or know that you have a child if you are married to this woman.” She pointed at Diane while twirling her index finger.Diane stood up. “Can you just get out of here? You don’t know anything, so don’t get involved in his family’s mess and mine!”“I’m not interested in you. I’m only interested in Mrs. Torres.” She shrugged it off and turned her gaze back to Sebastian again. “Stand by your family now; give your marriage a chance for your child. Even if you don’t love Carina, try to be a good parent to your child. Then decide again if you want to divorce her, but the child will never be with you if that happens.”“Did Carina send you here?” Sebastian asked.She folded her arms. “I’m not in a position to say who it is or give a name, but she’s telling me something. ”Be a father to your child, even if you don’t consider me your wife anymore.” She saw how Sebastian’s face changed. A minute ago, he was brave; now, he is calm. “Maybe you already know who the person I am referring to is.”Sebastian slowly sat down. “Sebastian!” Diane immediately approached but first looked at her evilly.“Think carefully about what I said, Mr. Torres, because you might regret your decision. You probably don’t want your child to grow up without knowing you. Give yourself a year. If you and Mrs. Torres can’t get along, file for divorce.” Sebastian didn’t speak but seemed to be listening to what she was saying.She turned to the woman with Sebastian. “And you, lady, if you insist on doing this, you’re still doing something wrong because he’s legally married, so you have no right to Mr. Torres even though he still loves you—for now.” She grinned.“What do you mean?”“You haven’t held his heart one hundred percent yet, and the year is also passing by. Don’t be complacent if he loves you now; everything you didn’t expect can change.” Adira looked at Sebastian again. “Treasure your family now, Mr. Torres, because it’s difficult to find someone who will understand you, even if you’re wrong. You’re lucky, but Mrs. Torres is the one who’s not lucky to have you.”She was about to leave, but she left a word again. “They are waiting for you.” She finally left, and even if the person guarding the CCTV area saw her, she didn’t care as long as she quickly left the bar and rode her motorcycle out of that place.She recalled the details provided by Mrs. Torres or, if it was accurate, Carina as she was traveling home. They got married, but Sebastian had a mistress, even though that woman was his true love, so Carina decided to scare her husband into thinking she was the one who did it. It’s okay for Carina, even though she is not a priority. The vital person is their son, who is only one year old. Mrs. Torres focuses only on their son, even though Sebastian doesn’t want her by his side.She thought, “Why is there a need to look for someone else when someone is destined for that person now? They are attempting to cause trouble when the one who will truly be with them for the rest of their lives ends up searching for someone who’s not truly their destiny, but perhaps that is how life works; you have to do something bad before you realize what you did was wrong, but I hope no children feel sorry for their parents’ fight because even if they want their child’s life to be good if the family is not complete and without love from their parents, the result will not be good either. I’m sure he’ll think carefully about what I said. If he doesn’t love Carina, he’ll love their son even though they’re not on good terms.”She firmly turned the motorcycle’s steering wheel, causing it to accelerate from slow to fast. “Those who are not satisfied with what they have suffered for what they’ve done.” She just shook her head and accelerated the motorcycle’s speed even more because she was close to her house and she would have time to rest, honestly. She was sleepy.She's confused by what they say, even to Sabrina. "I'm not your missing child, and the girl beside you now is my sister, even though we didn't treat each other very well!"Queen Alice came down and was about to approach Adira, but she backed away, which made the queen cry even more."If you want a real word, we have to call the person you've been with for a long time."King Felip nodded to the general of their palace, and when he returned, Adira was even more confused about the person he was with now, Simon."Simon?"He hesitated to smile before speaking. "Long time no see, Adira.""Simon, you're the only one who can prove everything to him and tell him why he's here in a country full of palaces," said King Felip.She frowned when she looked at Simon. "What does he mean?""The mission is not the only reason you are here, Adira. Because there is another reason why I forced you to accept the offer of the king of Stalwart Castle to accept the mission, and that is because of your real fat
"What are you talking about, King Felip? I never thought of harming your princess before."King Felip first looked at Princess Francesca. "I know everything you did before, Cyrus. You also sent to find my princess to kill her even when she was a baby because you felt that when the time came for the children to reach the age when they would marry and Stalwart Castle would grow strong."King Cyrus just stared at King Felip in silence. "You killed two people because of your greed, Cyrus, so he left behind a child who is still crying." He looked at the soldiers of King Cyrus. "You still have a chance to order your soldiers to put down their swords if you want to live."King Cyrus laughed loudly as he looked at King Felip. "How did you find out about the things I've been doing in secret?""To me."King Cyrus frowned when a familiar voice spoke, but he was even more surprised to see his face."P-prince Damon—my son.""Good evening, Father."King Cyrus was confused by what was happening. "Yo
Prince Damon stood up and walked closer to the wall, where he could see the bottom of the palace. Adira followed him."He's not referring to Prince Dylan, who will be killed; it's King Stephen. I'm the one who sends the letter to Prince Dylan with a servant whose name is Tasha, and it always says, "Be careful, prince."She quickly looked at the prince's face. "That means the letters I found under Dylan's bed came from him."He sighed. "But it was too late. I didn't know that he was slowly taking King Stephen's life. I thought he was going to start a war right away, but I was wrong, and I didn't tell Prince Dylan in my letters to be ready. I hope he is. I heard you and General Agustin the other day talking about what is happening in the king's body."She just listened to him carefully and didn't speak at first. "You should thank me because I helped you heal the king."She frowned. "In what way did you help? You didn't talk to me about that?"It laughed softly. "When you were traveling
While Prince Dylan was out of the palace, he was about to get into a car without a soldier following him inside, so he went out again and asked one of his soldiers."Where is the soldier I was in the car with earlier?"The soldier bowed before answering. "The soldier you are talking about, dear prince, is the king of Paradise Castle."Prince Dylan frowned. "Why is the king with her? Has she done anything?"The soldier shook his head. "The only way the soldier said goodbye to us was that they were going to do something with the king.""Did you see where they went?"The soldier pointed to the road where they passed Adira. "In that direction, dear prince.""Thank you, I leave you here for a moment, and I'll just go see her."Meanwhile, King Felip is still shocked by Adira. He looked at his hand, where he was holding the sword that was now on the ground.Adira's face was calm as she looked at the king."Great! Where did you learn that style?""Nobody taught, I just found out, dear king."
When Adira finished washing her face, she immediately sat down in front of the table and ate while staring at her bed. She was still wondering how the general could do that.An hour passed, and Adira was ready. She left the room and continued down the stairs. She stopped for a moment near the door leading out of the palace."Where else is the prince going? Why would he leave if the prince of Valiant Castle is here? I still have strong doubts about that prince." She turned aside because Dylan was already outside the palace. It just looked straight, and when it was opposite the car door, it stopped and looked at her."Soldier, come. Come to me," he called her calmly.Curious, she came closer, but not too close to him. Dylan looked her in the eye before speaking."You will be my companion in the car. Other soldiers will use a horse, but you will be with me in our car."She frowned at what he said because why did he say she was in the car to ride? As far as she knows, only General Agustin
Adira approached King Stephen's bed and looked at the table there.She looked over at the king, who was fast asleep, but she frowned when she noticed something on his lips. She brought her face closer to see more clearly.Her face became serious as she saw the king's lips more clearly. "This is bad; that person continues to pour poison into the king's mouth even when he is asleep. It is obvious from the lips that are almost purple as if he has been punched several times."She moved to the other side of the bed and looked at the dextrose, but she stopped, was stunned for a moment, and thought, "The poison liquid entering the king's vein may be also infused."She looked around inside and stopped at one side because there was dextrose there that hadn't been used and syringes. It will not be seen if the person who enters is at the door and only goes to the other side, and if it happens to go to the side where the dextrose is, it will only be seen if the person looks at a bag that looks li
