While he was in his gym, exercising, his phone kept rang for quite long, and after a few minutes, the call was transferred to the voicemail log.He focused on running on the treadmill when his father said through the phone, he already linked to the speaker mode whenever the call goes to the voicemail log."Hey, Ash, it's me, your dad.

"Now, one side is settled, but another problem is..where do I find the groom?" Richard finally let out his worries. Sighing, he took out his phone."I'm gonna call Zayne asking him to return back to Imperial right now.""Wait, Richard, he can't make it. It took at least 15 hours to arrive, while we only have at least 8 hours before the ceremony start tomorrow." Hai Rin turns to his husband.Andy feels a bit sorry for his friend's condition. He then looks at Asher. The man seems composed as ever. He turns to look at his wife after that.Hazel is also looking at Asher. Feeling a bit uneasy with his father and mother keep looking at him, he sighed."Ahem, Uncle Lee, if you want, I can help you out. But I can't promise you to be Athena's forever husband."The three of them turn to look at him. Now all the eyes fixed on him."That's okay. It just for tomorrow's event.

After the ceremony, Athena returns back to her room. Change her attire, she went to the bathroom afterward and took a bath.While Asher also went to his guest room, took out the divorce papers, and went to Athena's room. He knocks on the door, but there's no answer from the inside. Just when he wants to go to the living hall, one of the men guarding the floor opens the door for him. The one who opened the door for him is one of the butlers in this huge mansion.Seeing inside Athena's room, he was amazed that the place was stunning with the art collection hanging in her room. All the painting is painted by the painter who is so mysterious. Known by the name of the goddess, Nike.He is one of Nike's fan art. Rumor said that she is a disabled person who worked on the painting to earn a living. Some people said that she is actually a goddess looking girl. She doesn't like to be known to the public, so she went with the pseudonym.He scrunched his eyebrow a bit and looked at the art one by
He scrolls his mouse and finds Zayne's picture below the article. A young man who looks like a mixed-blood standing at the airport wearing casual clothes. His smile is quite refreshing to girls' eyes. Yes, he had a good looking face and figured too, just like him.Asher starts to dig more about him, his company, and his identity. He won a noble prize as the youngest billionaire when he was just 18 years old. He built his own company when he was only 16, start with the small business and the innovation he created that is now used worldwide.Zayne was stated as an aloof guy and didn't like to show up in public if it's not too important. Never had any scandal issue and very clean from the bribery records.He feels a bit challenging by seeing Zayne's achievement at such a young age; he scrolls down his mouse until it stops at one picture of him with a girl at the top of the building.Even though the girl only showing her back, he still could figure out who is she. The tag on the picture is
After she was calm a bit, Zayne releases her from his embrace, and he's rummaging his backpack after that."Umm, Athena. Here. I want you to look at this." he gives her a see-through tablet."What is this?""Inside is the file that I already compile. It's everything about him for the past 11 years since last you sees him. The information is in there. Do read it when you have time.""Huh? But why?" Athena tilts her head a bit.Zayne smiles and caresses her cheek softly."If you want to protect your marriages, start learning about your husband. He did the same to you. Since I always cover up your trace and identity, he never gets any info about you. Then, he did try to peek at mine. Luckily he's not that good with the hacking skill. So hmm. I do give him a little surprise, though." he grins.Athena was surprised when she heard that Asher try to find out her true identity. She then asks Zayne, "So did he find anything?""No. But that guy did find our picture at the tower watching the sunr

Two hours later,Kinslee and Aurora arrive at the hotel rooftop. They have a small party at the top of the hotel and have a barbeque too.
"Nngh…" Rachael groans a bit. She starts waking up when she feels like someone is shaking her body and crying at her side. She could hear a familiar voice calling her name so many times."Z…Is…is that you?" Her throat feels so dry, and she couldn't speak with a
Athena scrunches her eyebrow. She heard every single word that Asher utter just now, and she was so touched to hear that. The confession that supposedly happened years ago on Lu's island is now being said by the man she loves.Without noticing, her tears flow down on her cheek.
