Raisa's body trembled, her lips pursed without daring to say anything let alone look back.Seeing Raisa's response who still pursed her lips. Zean, who was about to argue with Asher, stopped his actions and immediately embraced Raisa from the side and turned towards the back."Excuse me, sir. Aren't you Mr. Asher's subordinate?! Why are you suddenly asking about Raisa?" Zean firmly asked Ken who was still watching Raisa.Raisa's position was now in Zean's arms with her head leaning and burrowing behind Zean's burly arm."That has nothing to do with you, sir. My business is with Raisa. I need to talk to her about something!" Ken bluffed by raising his voice.Hearing Ken's statement, Raisa immediately shook her head in defiance of Ken's statement to her.Ken widened his eyes at Raisa's sudden change in attitude. Staying away from him, refusing to talk to him."What's wrong with you, Raisa? Why are you refusing to talk to me? I just want to explain a few things to you. Especially about t
A bad feeling seemed to come over Valencia seeing from the attitude and fear that Raisa showed. Not without reason Valencia felt this premonition, remembering the incident experienced by Asher, Daniel and himself at the Brahmantya residence party.Because Asher at that time also consumed the same drink that Daniel drank. It was possible that Daniel was also experiencing the same symptoms.'Is it possible that Daniel also drank wine that had been mixed with aphrodisiac drugs? But why would Cecil give Daniel that medicine?' Valencia thought.Valencia was still touching Raisa's gaunt face guiltily. She looked into Raisa's eyes that were still avoiding her."Daniel, what's wrong with Prince Daniel, Raisa? What did Daniel do to you?" asked Valencia, specifying her words."Tid... there's nothing with Daniel. Forget what I just said, Valencia." Raisa averted her eyes."Don't lie Raisa. Look at me, I know you're hiding something. Tell me, did Daniel do anything at that party? Did he get drunk
Asher had also just finished and approached Valencia followed by Ken and Zhafira beside him."Honey, have you finished talking? Want to go home now?" Asher asked, while pulling Valencia's body into his arms."Asher, behave yourself. We're still in public." Valencia whispered irritably."Shut up, baby. You're my wife after all, what's wrong with that." Asher retorted."Oh yeah, Asher. You pay for all the food here. I think Zean ran away earlier. And haven't paid for the order here." Valencia coaxed and nodded in return."Are you going home with Raisa? Looks like she needs a friend to go home with." Asher asked. His eyes glanced at Ken who was still standing without saying anything."Yes. I'll go first, my husband." Valencia said, releasing Asher's embrace and grabbing Raisa's hand."Raisa. We're leaving now. Don't mind them!" Valencia said to Raisa who was watching Ken. Valencia's words were clearly an emphatic insinuation to Ken."Uhm..." Raisa only replied with a dejection.The two o
"What are you doing here, Alexa? The sky is cloudy and it's going to rain soon. You better come with me." greeted Daniel as he offered a ride.Daniel's eyes glimpsed Raisa who seemed to be scared of him, making Daniel frown and think about what happened to Raisa?"How about it, Alexa? I just don't want you to get sick from the rain. I promise, I'll only drive you. Nothing more," Daniel continued to reassure Valencia.As Valencia was about to answer Daniel's offer, Raisa further hid herself behind Valencia with a trembling body, "I... please, Valencia. I don't want to see her. At least for now. I'm not ready." Raisa whispered in a broken voice."I understand, Raisa. I will refuse. After all, I don't want to deal with him either." Valencia's reply was still whispering to Raisa.She looked at Daniel sternly. Valencia replied to Daniel's offer, "I'm sorry Prince Daniel. I can't accept your kindness. Besides, many bodyguards are following you. It's better for you to continue your journey.
After Asher and Ken left The Coffee Bean & The Leaf Cafe. They went straight to one of the Grand Lux Hotels which was not far from the Cafe.The meeting this time was to discuss the next shareholder vote of the Nasution and JK Group Company owned by the Jeremy Family, after Asher successfully acquired 70% of the total shares.In one of the buildings that had been prepared by the company. Ken and Asher entered a room that was already attended by Mr. Jeremy, Mr. Nasution, and the Board of Directors of both companies.All eyes were immediately focused on Asher, who had just stepped into the room and stood in one of the places that had been provided.Asher's arrival, apparently not very well received by the meeting members, especially Mr. Jeremy and Nasution as the previous owners of the Company. It was very evident from the ruthless and hateful stares they showed Asher when he first entered."Good afternoon. I am Asher William Xander. As the party who acquired the JK and Nasution Group C
After that Ken saw Mr. Jeremy with fiery eyes as if his temper was at its limit cut off his call and left the place."Bad! It looks like the location of Luze's corpse has been discovered by someone. This must have something to do with the person who wants to harm Mrs. Valencia. Unable to kill her directly, they used someone else's hands to do it. What a cunning trick. I must report this to the master immediately!" Ken exclaimed.He quickly left his hiding place and returned to the meeting room to meet Asher. However, Ken seemed to have been preceded by Mr. Jeremy who had already approached Asher with unstable emotions."Mr. Asher!!! I want you to give me an explanation right now!!!" Mr. Jeremy exclaimed in a loud voice entering the meeting room.Asher felt something was wrong, seeing the treatment of Mr. Jeremy who suddenly dared to be impolite in front of him. Still calm, Asher stood facing the door.Mr. Jeremy approached Asher with the cellphone still in his hand... "You need to ex
"Stop thinking about things. Sir is fine. Don't worry, sir. Because I believe, Mr. Asher has his own way of reclaiming Madame from the hands of Prince Daniel. Now, may I take you away?" asked Ken reminding him of the original destination."Yes. Thank you." Raisa replied with a slight smile.Seeing Raisa continue to shiver from the cold. Ken put down his umbrella, then took the initiative to take off his jacket and put it on Raisa. "Put it on Raisa. The weather is so cold today."Raisa accidentally glanced at Ken. Then she unconsciously smiled at Ken. Making Ken sometimes become mischievous."We're leaving now," Ken said.Ken took back his umbrella. Confidently, he pulled Raisa's body into his arms and whispered. "Don't go far. I don't want them or anyone else to see your figure, Miss Raisa." Ken's whisper made Raisa blush even more.The two of them walked hand in hand to the car that was not far from the parking lot.Ken kindly opened the car door and invited Raisa to get into the fro
Instantly Daniel's breathing became labored. His hand reflexively held his tight chest. Not wanting to hear the continuation of the information Neil conveyed, Daniel disconnected the call unilaterally.Daniel just didn't expect, the oblique rumors that were echoed by people behind the outer walls of the Kingdom were really real. Valencia became the main target of the Royal family. Even though it was clearly the Kingdom that set him up directly with Valencia.'Then, what's the point of the matchmaking conveyed by the Royal Family, if in the end Alexa must become the sacrifice of their savagery?! No wonder Alexa hates me so much. It's because of my family that she's gotten to this point. In fact, even a pardon is unlikely to erase Alexa's hatred for the Royal Family,'Daniel had not yet left the corner of the room. His mind was still frantic and confused thinking about what Valencia aka Alexa had experienced in the past 2 years because of her family's actions.Not wanting to waste too m
