Hello dear, I just updated the latest chapter, and happy reading.
After Asher's departure, Vallen silently observed the surroundings, her heart grumbling incoherently like a woman with a monthly visitor. 'Why am I annoyed at being left behind by Asher? Isn't this what I wanted? Arggh... Vallen. Don't tell me you've fallen under that jerk's charm.' Because she was bored, Aunt An had not come to pick her up to return to the mansion. Vallen chose to get up from her bed to step slowly out of the infirmary, which she found stuffy even though it was so spacious. In front of the door of the infirmary. Vallen felt that he was being watched from an unknown place for a moment. Instincts from the work of the brain and senses that he did not realize before seemed to stick out from his subconscious. As if it was a habit that she often did. Slowly but surely. In the center of the crowd in the hospital, Vallen observed while continuing to wander and only relying on instincts that somehow felt more sensitive. "Strange, this kind of feeling. Why do I feel like
Ken got up from his place and approached Asher to give a report. "Sir. As I said earlier. The superior, who holds full rights to the harbor, has agreed to cooperate with us. And as for the assistant, we can use him as a pawn after we see his loyalty." Ken explained, and Asher nodded in return. Asher's eyes stared at the two middle-aged men who were helpless under his power. The two of them were the boss and assistant who had access to manage the Blue Ocean Dock. They were sitting on chairs tied up. One of them was already battered. There were cuts on his lips, around his arms, and chest, and he was currently unconscious. It was sure his superior must have opposed Asher's request or ordered.As for the man on the side who fainted, his condition was no less concerning. There were several cuts on the corners of his lips. He indicated that the person had received several raw blows from the men on guard. But the person was still conscious."Honorable sir. Please let me go. I promise to do
Hospital area VVIP particular building areaOne attack from a sniper with a silencer causing a boom as it hit a wall was enough to make several people not far from where Vallen was screaming hysterically. Some of the people ran away from where she was.Vallen herself took quick steps. After one attack, it would take some time for the snipper to make a second attack. At that moment, Vallen, still looking down with her arms around Grandmother, hurriedly left the courtyard to enter the room not far from where they were. "Let's go in, Grandma. We can't stay outside, or they'll keep attacking until they get a satisfactory result." Vallen pleaded, slightly pulling and helping Grandmother to get up from the bench. Vallen's steps were quick and shaky, and she forced her hand to carry her grandmother so that their steps matched to enter the nearest room.The old grandmother, slightly forced by Vallen to enter the room, looked grumpy and confused by the situation. "Daughter, what's going on? W
After Asher's departure with Vallen from the hospital where Vallen was treated. Asher took Vallen back to the mansion. On the way, perhaps because of the incident that had occurred, Vallen was exhausted and fell asleep on the front bench.Now the two of them were in the private room Aunt An had prepared before Vallen's return. It was a spacious room with classic modern accents and all the amenities. Inside the room was a king-size bed, relaxing sofas with tables, a walk-in closet, a mini kitchen set with contents, and a bathroom with a bathtub. Everything was neatly arranged and was designed long ago by Mrs. Asher for her son if her son one day found his heart mate. It had really been intended long ago.Vallen was already fast asleep on the bed with the blanket covering her up to her chest. Asher, who was still sitting on the corner of the bed, looked closely at the woman who had captivated his heart from the first time he saw her."Vallen... oh Vallen. Why is an arrogant and rude wom
Tonight at around 6.30 pm local time, still in her room, Vallen vaguely woke up from sleep. Her eyes blinked, looking around and observing her surroundings. It seemed so unfamiliar, although it was clear that he was in a room called a room. But whose room?!Vallen furrowed her brow; she was somewhat confused by her current situation. However, his hand accidentally touched something that looked so hard and muscular. Suddenly Vallen was startled and got up from her sleeping position and looked to the side where there was already a figure of Asher without a single cloth beside her. "Ah!" Vallen squeaked. Her hand was still comfortably touching Asher's chest. She pulled it away immediately and cupped it against her chest. Trying to hold back the trembling heart that was still unstable due to her shock. 'Oh my, what the hell was my hand just now? It's crazy if Asher realizes what I did earlier. He might get a big head later,' Vallen grumbled, still looking down at her perfect chest. "W
Again, Asher was stunned by Vallen's beauty. The woman who now held the status of Mrs. Asher looked even more seductive and adorable while wearing a white casual T-shirt that was saggy on her body because the T-shirt did belong to Asher. "Are you trying to tease me, baby?" Asher asked. Asher signaled Vallen to sit beside him with his index finger, "Sit down."Vallen merely clucked in response to Asher's question and sat beside Asher as instructed. "I had to wear your oversized shirt because I didn't want to wear hospital clothes. It makes me sick," Vallen said first. "It doesn't matter what you wear, dear. Whatever it is, as long as you wear it, it will look good on you," Asher lifted Vallen's face slightly with his index finger to see Vallen's face clearly, "And this time, I won't let you go because you alone have provoked my juniors until they are now hard and begging to be pampered. I'm waiting for your performance, baby..." Cup! A brief peck touched Vallen's lips. The next sec
Asher disconnected the call and placed his cell phone on the table. He looked at Vallen, who seemed to be frowning. It seemed like Vallen was quite curious about who Asher was and what Asher was going to do."Honey, I don't think I can satisfy you tonight. There are some things I have to take care of and can't postpone. I hope you will wait for me the next night." Asher said with a gentle touch on Vallen's face."Where are you going at this late hour, Asher? And what did you just talk about with the person on the other end of the phone? I suppose it's important?" asked Vallen in an indifferent voice, when in reality, Vallen was curious about what Asher would do."Have you calmed down your anger just because you're curious about what I will do, dear?" Asher blinked one eye sexily, accompanied by his thin deadly smile that momentarily captivated Vallen, "Rest well, don't wait for me. After this, maybe tomorrow I'll give you some good news."'Good news?! Does Asher have information about
Mr. Zhang gestured for the uninterested person to step back. "I have some information that Mr. Asher needs. It is related to a while ago when your informant was investigating a woman named Valencia Addison, right?". Mr. Zhang said, opening the conversation."What do you know about my wife?" asked Asher in a heavy voice. He was Emphasizing that he was not messing around with their conversation."Long!" called Mr. Zhang, interrupting his accomplice.The person called Long took a few steps forward, put down a laptop, and fiddled with it until a photo appeared on the monitor. For a moment, Asher gasped. He furrowed his brow in question.A photo of the meeting at the special meeting with Vallen appeared to be of one of the important people there. "Mr. Asher, this is a photo of the office closed meeting of Charles de Hoult corp shareholders. About three years ago." 'Isn't that a company owned by a member of one of the nobles in the Stanford State? Then, how could Vallen be there?' thought
"Surprise?!" repeated Asher with one eyebrow raised. 'Valencia doesn't usually make surprises like this. What does my naughty wife want to do?' but the words stuck in Asher's mind.Asher massaged his temples and signaled the waiters to disperse. Asher was completely unaware that today was his birthday. All Asher knew was that he was irritated by his nosy wife's behavior, who arbitrarily changed the order of the mansion. Even though Asher always kept the mansion the same as before, which was when his late mother still occupied it.Asher's light steps carried him up the stairs to their bridal suite, hoping his wife was there or making sure Valencia didn't leave the mansion without his knowledge. Every step Asher took was like a flower blossoming in spring. It felt so thrilling."Since when did my heart become so pounding just from stepping into a room and imagining Valencia sleeping on her back. Oh shit! I really can't seem to help it." Asher said.The door to the room was still firmly
Valencia let out a long sigh after seeing Avrora's departure from her sight. Her body that had tensed up with the veins on her forehead that were interlocking gradually decayed and went limp. Her sluggish body collapsed and sat down on the sofa with both palms that still left a sense of anger, fear and trembling. 'I never thought I would have to deal with a woman of such high status in the Kingdom so quickly. It's really tiring, even my hands are still shaking after her departure.'"Madam, are you alright?!" Asked Rey worriedly at Valencia who looked exhausted and had a worried look on her face. Valencia turned to Rey who was standing beside her with a smile. She waved her hand slightly as a sign that she was okay. "I'm fine, Rey. Oh yeah, I hope this incident doesn't reach Asher's ears." Valencia said calmly, though not as calmly as her heart was still racing at the thought of Avrora's name. "Are you sure you don't want me to report it to Lord? Because I think, in the future, th
Valencia turned her head with a smile and patted Liana's hand to ease the anxiety of the maid Valencia already considered a friend. "I'm fine. After all, from the moment I found out that Asher had been matched, I already had a premonition that there would definitely be a time for me to meet Princess Avrora. It's just that I didn't expect that the time to meet would be this soon, I will definitely deal with it.""Madam, you are truly full of patience and maturity. It is fitting that the lord chose you to be his lifelong companion. Master has never made a wrong choice.""Never mind... don't keep praising me. Rather, prepare the meal for Princess Avrora immediately. I'm afraid the maid made a mistake out of fear. I'm going to change my clothes to welcome her."Valencia and Liana began to move off on their own. Valencia went upstairs to change into proper clothes. Liana, on the other hand, took over the maid's duties to serve the honored guests of the Kingdom.In the living room, Princ
Asher glanced with a sharp glance at Louzen, "Louzen you come to my office." Asher ordered."Yes, sir." Louzen trailed behind Asher, following his leader to the Dragon Knight leader's private study.In the Dragon Knight leader's private study, Asher was already sitting at his desk. Meanwhile, Louzen stood in front of him quietly waiting for Asher to start talking. "Tell me Louzen. What information did you get from the incident that happened at The Angel building?" Asher asked calmly. He didn't want to pressure Louzen and make him too cautious.As much as possible Asher made Louzen feel that he didn't know anything Louzen had done, so that in time Asher could catch those who were traitors in the Organization. As the saying goes, if you want to catch a fish, you need to spread the bait, widen the net and pull it slowly so that the fish is not surprised and get a satisfactory catch.Louzen was still silent. He seemed to be organizing the right words to say to Asher. "Sir, I've sent a t
Asher glanced at Rey. "Rey, escort Her Highness the Princess back to her palace. Tell Her Majesty the Queen to take good care of her daughter. I have a busy schedule and don't have time to play with her spoiled daughter!" Rey immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Swearing by anything, Rey would do everything he was told, except bringing Princess Avrora back to the Palace. But Rey was just a subordinate, he was forced to obey his lord's orders. "Your Highness Princess, please return to the Palace. Currently the Master cannot accompany you, he has a busy schedule that cannot be postponed." Rey said with all due respect to the daughter of the leader of the Stanford Kingdom. Avrora could only snort in annoyance. She was indeed old enough to lead a country. Avrora was also smart enough to follow protocol or state meetings. It was just that her attitude suddenly turned spoiled and childish when in front of Asher. That's what made Asher feel ill-feeling and uneasy if he had to linger wi
Valencia noted the ingredients needed to make the cake, tumpeng yellow rice, young coconut, other fresh fruits to make fruit ice and finally vegetables for the side dish to complement the yellow rice. "Yep... Can you read it, Liana?" Asked Valencia, she handed the piece of paper to Liana. "Let me read it. Hmm... " Liana looked like she was reading seriously. "It looks like the meal that Madame is going to make is going to be special. There are a lot of spices that are said to make food have a high flavor. I'm really looking forward to Madame cooking a lot of food." Liana grinned. Valencia had already prepared it earlier. She took out her gold card and gave it to Liana. "Shop all you want, Liana. I'll be waiting for you here.""Yes, ma'am. Then I'll go shopping." Liana said cheerfully. Valencia could only shake her head in understanding. She did not expect, the figure of Liana that Valencia first saw looking very mature and calm was only a cover. The Liana that Valencia saw at thi
Asher looked at the file in front of him to check. But his mind drifted to thinking about the arranged marriage forced by his father. "Rey, order a team of hackers and spies to track down the ulterior motives between father and Her Majesty the Queen. I'm still sanctioning this just an ordinary matchmaking. There must be a price to be paid by Father for this." Asher ordered. "Sir, isn't your wife the fiancée of the Crown Prince who disappeared two years ago?!" Rey asked while struggling with the documents in front of her. "Hm. Alexa Zheyana Hoult is the official fiancée with a will and stamp from the late King. Therefore, even though I am legally married to Alexa in Broughton. Alexa's engagement to Daniel was still valid in Stanford, as long as the will and royal seal had not been returned. And damn it, those seals were nowhere to be found. Perhaps someone from the late Madame Harsha's camp has deliberately kept it.""So, according to the master. Lady Alexa's supporters still expect
"Shhh... don't let anyone else hear about this, let alone Asher." Alexa warned Liana with her index finger to keep what she saw and heard a secret. "But why would you do that, ma'am?" Liana asked not understanding Alexa's train of thought. She put the porridge on the table and sat next to Alexa. "You know, Liana. The first time I met Asher was a miracle. I had just fallen off a cliff because I was escaping from someone's captivity and Asher was lucky to save me. It was only a few days after that. He suddenly legalized the marriage without my knowledge on the grounds that I was unconscious, isn't that ridiculous." Alexa said recounting the beginning of her meeting with Asher. "Madam, I have become very curious about the course of Madam's love story with Tuan. Because as far as Liana knows about Tuan. He is a rigid man who is against women." "Really?! Ah... don't just say that. How can any woman reject a man as handsome and rich as Asher." Alexa chuckled with her opinion. "I'm
Louzen and his men took over the job of taking care of the guards. Asher headed for the car that was ready in the courtyard. Yes... The Ferrari that Asher was using was parked in front of the building. Maybe Louzen had brought the car to the courtyard. Asher opened the car door behind the steering wheel with his left hand. He sat Alexa down with the car seat stretched out to make Alexa feel comfortable. Alexa's eyes were still closed, which made Asher even more worried and anxious. He closed the side door then switched to the driving seat and took his sports car at high speed. A 30-minute drive from The Angel building to the mansion. In front of the main door, Asher stopped the car. From the front side of the door, the mansion guard approached the car and opened the front door and invited Asher to get out. Asher came out from inside and gave the car keys to the guard. "Move the car." Asher ordered. He immediately went to the side door of the car and lifted Alexa bridal style and
