The Star's Secret Husband 17. I am Waitin' for your Responsibility
***When Anastasia came out of the bathroom, she looked into the mirror in front of her. The image of her pale and tired looking face seemed to reflect the chaotic feeling inside her. She closed her eyes, trying to get rid of the nervousness that had enveloped her body since the morning.She glanced at the door of her room. After making sure there were no signs of life outside, she opened the door slowly and cautiously. It was like conducting a secret operation; every move was carefully calculated to avoid making a sound. She didn't want to see Maximilian this morning, not after what happened last night.When the door opened a little wider, Anastasia held her breath and peered out. The hallway was deserted. She heard the sound of footsteps from outside, fading away - Maximilian was gone. A feeling of relief washed over her and she unconsciously took a deep breath."Thank God..." she murmured softly, then carefully closed the door.Anastasia walked to the kitchen, hoping to distract he

***“Anya... "Anya was surprised by Anastasia's arrival, she stood and looked at Anastasia awkwardly. "Anastasia, k-you, why did you come here?"Anastasia smiled flatly, "I sent you a message and you didn't answer. I thought you were sick, I was worried and came here to see how you were doing."And suddenly her eyes went straight to Elora, who was sitting haughtily across the table, looking at her with a triumphant smile that always made Anastasia's blood boil. Next to Elora, Anya, the best friend she had come to think of as a sister, sat with a flat expression, avoiding Anastasia's gaze."Elora, you're actually here," Anastasia greeted in a firm tone. "Anya, am I disturbing you?"Elora replied immediately without giving Anya a chance to speak. "Oh, Anastasia, you came just in time. Anya and I were just discussing our duet that will be released next week. She's going to be on my new album."Elora's smile widened in satisfaction. She glanced at Anya, as if giving a veiled signal that

***"Are you ready?" asked Maximilian.Anastasia nodded slowly, as if hypnotized by Maximilian's charm. The man's eyes were so calm, yet contained something that made it difficult for Anastasia to resist.Maximilian took the helmet in his hand, then gently placed it on Anastasia's head. His touch was careful, treating Anastasia as if she were something precious and fragile. Anastasia felt uncomfortable, but said nothing. Just a small nod in response to Maximilian's sweet treatment."Are you ready?" Maximilian asked as he made sure the helmet strap was securely fastened under her chin.Anastasia nodded again, trying to hide her nervousness. "Yes," she replied simply.They walked over to Maximilian's big motorcycle, a black sports bike that glistened under the streetlights. Maximilian got on first, then motioned for Anastasia to sit behind him. Anastasia hesitated for a moment, but eventually she cautiously got on the bike.At first, Anastasia felt uncomfortable. She sat up straight wit

***"What does that mean?" asked Anastasia, confused."We can get to know each other because we'll probably see each other all the time," Maximilian replied."You're right. We're married, it would be strange if we didn't know each other so well," Anastasia said."You don't mind having a husband like me?""You're human, right?"Maximilian nodded. "How old are you?" he asked."Twenty years old," Anastasia replied innocently."You're so young, but you're so popular. How does it feel to be so popular at twenty?"Anastasia was silent for a moment, trying to absorb the question. A question that was actually very simple, but carried a lot of memories and pent-up emotions. She sighed and turned her eyes to Maximilian."It feels... lonely," she answered in a soft but firm voice. "Everyone loves you, but not for you. They love you because you're a top singer, a star at the height of your career. Your every move is watched, guarded like a precious diamond. But when you start to fall... when your

***"Anastasia..." Maximilian's voice was hoarse, almost a whisper, before his lips finally touched hers.The kiss was soft, yet full of warmth. It was as if time stood still, just the two of them in the still night. Anastasia couldn't think. Her hand came up and touched Maximilian's chest, which was now so close to her. She could feel the man's heart beating as fast as her own.Maximilian deepened the kiss, holding Anastasia's face with both hands to make sure she didn't go anywhere. The kiss was slow but intense, as if he wanted to convey all the feelings that had been hidden.Anastasia finally closed her eyes and let herself get lost in the moment. She didn't understand why her common sense wasn't working this time. The man had hypnotized her.Maximilian looked at Anastasia, who was still stunned after their long kiss. Her face was flushed and her lips parted slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but no words came out. Anastasia stood stiffly, her eyes still glued to the ma

***Maximilian rode his motorcycle at a moderate speed, enjoying the cool night breeze that blew across his face. A few minutes ago, he had dropped Anastasia off at her apartment. Now he was alone on the road, but a sense of caution began to creep into his mind."Looks like someone is following me..." he thought, glancing in the rearview mirror. Behind him, another motorcycle seemed to be following at a considerable distance. The rider's black helmet hid his identity, but Maximilian could already guess who he was."Journalist, huh?" Maximilian grinned from behind the helmet. "It will be interesting to play him."With a quick movement, Maximilian picked up speed. The once quiet street was now the man's playground. The reporters following him tried to catch up, but Maximilian had already calculated all the possibilities. He knew these streets well - every curve, every turn, everything was memorized.The reporter behind him began to panic. He didn't want to lose track of the mysterious m

***"Have you heard today's news?" asked Anya.Elora nodded, "Yes. But I don't like the news. I want Anastasia's good name to be ruined and there's no place for her anymore.""We should pay the media more," Anya suggested."Yes, I'll ask Roger. He can certainly help us. Besides, I can't wait for the day when my first album comes out," Elora replied happily."But what if there's a problem?" asked Anya cautiously."What problem?""With all the songs on your new album. Anastasia will know right away that the songs on your album will be hers, songs she wrote herself," Anya replied a little worried."She won't be able to do anything about it. You've deleted everything, right?"Anya nodded. "I deleted it, even Anastasia doesn't have the files, but when the public finds out the truth, what then? We'll be finished."Elora laughed, she was never afraid, because now Anastasia's good name was already bad in the eyes of the public. "The public will be more on my side, Anya. Even if Anastasia des

***That night, the sky outside Anastasia's apartment was dark. Only a few streetlights illuminated the deserted sidewalk. Maximilian stepped into the apartment building, tired after a long day of work due to the many projects he would be working on abroad. He took a deep breath, trying to get rid of the fatigue that had been building up since the morning. As he reached the floor of Anastasia's apartment, the soft sound of a piano could be heard faintly from behind the closed door.Maximilian stopped for a moment. He recognized the sound - an emotionally played piano, accompanied by a melodious voice he knew well. It was Anastasia's voice. Without hesitation, he opened the door and entered.His eyes were immediately drawn to the figure of Anastasia sitting at the piano in the living room. Her fingers moved softly over the keys and her singing voice flowed, blending with the beautifully played piano. Anastasia looked so calm, as if lost in her own world. Her long hair was down and her

***Maximilian awoke slowly, his eyes still heavy and his body feeling weak. However, he immediately felt the presence of someone beside him. His vision blurred for a moment before finally focusing on the figure of Anastasia sitting beside the bed. The woman was asleep in a sitting position, her head resting on her crossed arms at the edge of the bed. Throughout the night, Anastasia had remained by his side, relentlessly guarding him.Maximilian sighed slowly, feeling a warmth in his chest. He knew very well how busy Anastasia had been lately, preparing for her new album that was about to be released.

She looked tired, but even in sleep, Anastasia's face exuded a deep serenity. Maximilian reached out and gently touched Anastasia's hair, trying not to wake her.

***The evening was more special than usual. The laughter and excitement of the Athena Records staff filled the room as they celebrated the success of Anastasia's latest album, which would be released in two days. Music played softly in the background while warm lighting added to the festive atmosphere. However, in the midst of the fun, a sudden feeling of unease came over Anastasia.She sat in a corner of the room, holding a sparkling glass of red wine and staring out the window. The spring night in New York was filled with stars, but her mind was distracted. She was worried because Maximilian hadn't returned her messages and she hadn't heard from him until this evening.Anastasia tried to distract herself by chatting with some of the staff, but somehow the excitement felt hollow. Suddenly, the glass she was holding slipped from her hand and fell to the floor. The sound of the broken glass echoed through the room, attracting the attention of many people."Ouch!" she cried, seeing tha

***Maximilian stood in front of his sister's grave, the spring breeze blowing gently, carrying the scent of flowers blooming from the trees around him. His eyes were fixed on the gravestone with a name that was always painful to remember. Ten years had passed, but the wound was still fresh in his memory."Max..." A soft voice behind him made Maximilian jump. He turned to find Renata still standing there, her face filled with fear.He let out a long breath, holding back the emotions that were churning inside him. "Renata, why are you still here? You'd better leave. I don't have much time. I have a lot of work to do."Renata didn't move, tears began to run down her cheeks. She knelt down in front of Maximilian, ignoring the cold floor and the piercing wind. "I'm sorry, Max," her voice trembled with regret. "These ten years I have been tormented because you hated me. I can't live like this anymore... Please, forgive me."Maximilian was stunned. He looked at Renata crying in front of him
The Star's Secret Husband 96. Not Too Late, right?
***Anastasia walked slowly to a fancy restaurant in downtown New York. When she arrived, she saw a familiar face, Selene, waiting for her at one of the tables near a large window with a breathtaking view. Selene smiled warmly when she saw Anastasia approaching."Anastasia! You're here at last," Selene greeted, rising from her chair and hugging Anastasia."I'm not too late, am I?" asked Anastasia as she returned the hug."Ah, not at all. Mama just came early. Sit down, dear."Anastasia sat across from Selene and looked at the menu on the table. The waiter came quickly and they ordered lunch."Mama looks wonderful today," Anastasia complimented with a smile.Selene chuckled softly. "Oh, you always know how to flatter Mama. So how are you, Anastasia? I hear your new album is almost finished? I can't wait for it to come out."Anastasia smiled a little. "Yes, just a little bit longer. I can't wait either. Everything is going well, although there are some hurdles I have to go through. You
The Star's Secret Husband 95. Because of Them
***Maximilian sat in his study, surrounded by piles of files that needed to be completed. He had just returned from a long trip to New York, but his work was already waiting for him. Bryan, his assistant, stood in front of him with a tablet in his hand, ready to report on everything that had come up in his absence."Mr. Maximilian, here's a full report on projects in progress and some meetings that need to be rescheduled," Bryan said in a professional tone. He handed the tablet to Maximilian, who took it without taking his eyes off the laptop screen.Maximilian studied some of the data and presentations he had to review. His eyes carefully scanned the numbers, graphs and financial reports. "Good, reschedule these meetings in the near future, especially with the Tokyo investors. We can't delay too long," he says, handing the tablet back to Bryan."Of course, sir." Bryan quickly made notes. There was one report, however, that made Bryan hesitate for a moment before going into it. "Ther
The Star's Secret Husband 94. Who Are You?
***This night was very special for Anastasia. After spending a wonderful day with Maximilian in Finland, she had no idea that another surprise was waiting for her. Anastasia's eyes were covered with soft black silk as they arrived at the place Maximilian had promised. Her curiosity and pounding heart made her impatient to open her eyes and see what her husband had prepared."Are you ready?" Maximilian's voice rang softly in her ear. He clasped her hand warmly."Max, what exactly are you preparing? I'm getting curious," Anastasia smiled faintly behind her blindfold, unable to hide her growing curiosity.Maximilian chuckled and slowly removed Anastasia's blindfold. When her eyes opened, Anastasia was stunned, unable to believe what she saw. In front of her was a very romantic scene - a luxurious restaurant in a private setting, with candles beautifully arranged on a dining table decorated with red rose petals. Small sparkling lights added to the warm and intimate atmosphere. Soft music
The Star's Secret Husband 93. Blue Sky Finland
***The Finnish sky was a brilliant blue, and a cool spring breeze caressed Anastasia's face as she walked hand in hand with Maximilian through a garden filled with wildflowers. The trees were turning green and the smell of spring was refreshing. They both smiled, feeling as if the world belonged to them."This place is beautiful," Anastasia said as she looked at Maximilian. "I never thought I'd see Finland so beautiful, and it's my first time in the country, and with you."Maximilian looked at her tenderly. "Well, then I'll keep bringing you here because I know how much you love the serene scenery of nature," he replied, rubbing the back of his hand that still held Anastasia's. "And also... I want us to enjoy our time together without anyone interfering."Anastasia smiled, her smile so genuine and charming. "I really feel free here. Thank you for coming, Max."They walked slowly, savoring every second together. In the distance, the sound of the flowing river added to the peaceful atm
The Star's Secret Husband 92. Never Missed So Much
***Renata was still in the doctor's office, today the last patient was finished and she was getting ready to go home. The familiar sound of footsteps came from outside the room. The door opened slowly and Robert, her father, appeared in the doorway. Renata's smile immediately widened, although there was a slight hesitation in her heart."Dad, why did you come here?" Renata greeted him with a surprised tone, although she couldn't help but be curious. Usually Robert rarely visited her at work.Robert smiled slightly before answering, "I just wanted to see you, Renata. There's something I wanted to talk to you about. I spoke with Maximilian earlier."Hearing that name, Renata fell silent. Her smile slowly faded, her eyes narrowed slightly. "What did you talk to him about?" asked Renata in a slightly tense tone. She knew that whenever Maximilian's name was mentioned, her feelings were always chaotic.Robert took a deep breath, seemed to hesitate for a moment before finally answering, "It

***Maximilian sat behind his desk and looked at the files piled in front of him. His thoughts and feelings were in turmoil due to the problem that someone had attacked him that night and that person could be dangerous if he knew that he and Anastasia were married. He let out a long sigh and tried to concentrate on his work. However, a gentle knock on the door of his room stopped him in his tracks. He looked up and was surprised to see Robert standing in the doorway."Uncle Robert?" Maximilian frowned, it was rare for his uncle to enter his room unannounced. "Can I help you?" He invited his uncle to take a seat.Robert smiled as he entered. "No need to be so formal, Max," he said as he sat down on the sofa. "I just want to talk to you casually."Maximilian felt a wave of anxiety that he couldn't ignore. He knew that if Robert had come without business, the conversation would have been more personal."So," Robert began after a moment of silence, "I hear you have a girlfriend?"Maximili
