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
Imperial International Airport.Hyejin fans and many media teams have been waiting at the entrance since the morning for their arrival. Once they landed, Asher put on his silver sunglasses. At the same time, Hyejin also wears her pinkish sunglasses together with a faux fur beanie hat.Asher already hires a group bodyguard to protect them and help them make a path from getting ambushed by the fans. When they start to walk inside the airport, a vast commotion can be heard, and loud screaming and shouting of Hyejin's name also can be heard.Hyejin's smiling, friendly to her fans. She also gives a few signatures to her fans. Behind her is Asher and her manager, Eng Suk Chin. Both of them are already used to this kind of scenery.The picture of them starts to spread out through the entire nation like a fire. A lot of photos with a lot of angles make them have a lot of speculation too.Some of the fans are saying that Asher was there to support his girlfriend. While some fans are saying that
Inside Athena's house, she was watching the concert. When the camera starts to show Asher's face, and suddenly a bouquet of rose comes out from backstage, she closes her eyes. Her heart feels hurt just by seeing those moments.She leaned her head to the couch."Don't watch it if you can't take it." Zayne takes the remote control and turns it off.He then slumped beside her and passed her a glass of warm milk.She still froze at her seat without taking the glass from him."Do you want that flower really badly?" he asks and put down the glass on the table.Athena still didn't reply to Zayne's question."Okay..wait here, I call my gardener to pluck the rose from my garden. It's a high quality rose, you know.." he took out his phone from his pocket.When he wants to bring the phone to his ear, Athena immediately grab her hand and turns off his phone.Take the glass on the table, she drinks the milk that he prepared for her."Your rose is too precious to give it to me, Z."Grinning, he said
Asher eyes still gazing at Athena for some time before Hyejin hold his hand and led him to take a seat. He follows Hyejin to the bench."So, since we have eight people here, how about we split into two groups?" Yu Zhin suggestion makes all of them turn to look at each other.When Athena's eye met with Asher, she immediately lowered her gaze a little."Okay." Adrian and Zayne said while others nod in agreement."So, team up now."Yu Zhin, Yu Luan, Asher, and Hyejin in one group, while Adrian, Athena, Zayne, and Zenith, also in one group."So, the defeated group will pay for lunch today, agree?"All of them nod their head, agree with the term. "Okay. Let's start now."The first group is Yu Zhin's group. Starting with Yu Zhin. He was quite good at the shooting.Bang! Bang! Bang!"9,8,9" the system count and display it on the screen.Adrian's smirking a bit. "Heh..not bad."He takes his gun and put the earmuff to cover his ear.Bang! Bang! Bang!"9,9,8"Athena's clapping her hands, rejoici
After having lunch, they go to the archery field, and after that, they went for a bowling game. Chatting about work, life, and all sort of trivial matters that happen to them in eleven years, they part ways.While Zayne and Athena keep sitting close together. They are not a talker person, thus both of them mostly in their own world with their own talk."So, Athena, when will you guys going to get married?" Hyejin asks with a smile on her face. She was referring to Zayne.Athena almost chock on her mineral. She coughs a little, and Zayne pats her back softly."Er, well..""I see you guys so close together—such a romantic couple. You guys have been dating for years, right? Why still not settled it down?" she asks again with a happy tone.Looking at her face, Zayne asks her back. "What about you? I've heard the rumor saying you have been in a relationship with Asher for years too. Why don't you guys settle it down?"This time, Asher was the one who's been struck by the question. He turns
Once Asher parks his car at the front of her entrance house, Athena immediately runs inside her house.Asher's a bit worried, seeing her pale face earlier. He decides to take a look at her before he went back to the hotel he stayed in.Athena was rummaging her cabinet and kitchen cupboard one by one."Where is it? Where is it?" she mumbles. Her stomach is really in pain right now. She's sweating a lot."Hey, are you okay?" Asher asks her when he saw she tried to find something in her kitchen cabinet."Shit! Is it in the bedroom?" she runs upstairs, leaving Asher in the kitchen dumbfounded. She didn't even bother to answer his question.Asher then follows her from behind.Athena opens her bedside drawer and takes out one pill from a bottle. She swallows it in a second. She curled up and ran her finger to her hair anxiously."Are you taking a drug?" Asher scrunches his eyebrow seeing Athena curling up at the bedside of the bed.She didn't reply to him. When he wants to walk closer, sudde
Inside his jet, Asher touches his lips. He starts to remember back what actually happened last night. When he returned back to his hotel room this morning, he went to take a bath. While he was under the rain shower, he could see a little trace on his hand like fighting with someone before.After his dizziness dissipates, his hazy mind starting to show the memory that has been erased by Athena last night.He still doesn't understand why she is being the target. ‘She's an aloof girl. She doesn't have any occupation, and she lives in a medium-size house. Not huge like her father's mansion.Her skill..when did she learn all of that? Why she has complete equipment hidden in her house? Why is she taking some strange pill, though? Who is she, and who are they? Why the house so clean when he woke up? Where the dead body goes? Why is there no single news about it?’ These questions keep hunting him and make him want to know more.But he can't act recklessly. He knows he needs to pretend like his
Athena turns off the light switch in her gallery. The sculpture is almost finished now. She went to the main house and pressed another button, making the glasshouse move underneath the ground and covered by the lawn grass.After she checks all the switch and everything is in good condition, she turns on the security system before going to her bedroom.Take off her satin robe and only leaving her with the satin nightgown. She’s sneaking under the comforter and close her eyes, trying to sleep.Asher uses his night vision glasses and turns on his laser detector. He is now at the branch tree in Athena's neighbor's house. He scans her home, and he was a bit surprised.'What kind of system is this?' his eyes focus on the random laser, which is kept moving and change the pattern every second. Not to mention the laser light had at least more than 100 designs guarding the house.'Must be Zayne who set this system.' he thought. After thinking for a moment and observed the system, he shake his he
A beautiful song played by great artists and pianists. All that comes today were so happy to see the prince and his bride getting married.Asher and Athena went to their wedding by private with Zayne and Rachael. While Kinsl
"Rachel Lu, let me propose to you properly this time.""Z...You don't have to-"
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.
"Sobs…Sobs…Ash!…Ash, wake up!""Ash…Please..open your eyes. I beg you.." Athena's tears were dripping down while she pumped Asher's heart using both of her hands.
Took the device that Athena handed to him. He immediately went to Eric which is still on the floor, trying to pull his hand from nailed on the floor by Athena's katana.Athena took another katana on the floor and threw it to Asher before Asher used it to cut Eric's hand.
Bam!Athena grunting and scrunches her eyebrow a bit. She has just been thrown by her husband to the hard floor without any warning from him.
"He planned on killing all of you," Asher told Athena of what Eric planned from the beginning.Scrunch her eyebrow and keep the act, Athena asked, "Ugh….why?"
