Roy knew the moment Eka widened his eyes in shock, he was doomed. The man has been harboring a deep feeling for Rina who is bright and cheerful. The woman is different from any woman he played with in the past. Rina never lost her way, she has always been a positive girl who tried to accomplish her goals to live independently.
She was also the only woman who dared to step up against his best friend, Eka. That quality itself attracted Roy’s attention, that she’s unique from the other power-hungry woman who went after Eka. The president sighed and rubbed his temple in confusion, his onyx eyes looked disappointed and puzzled.
Roy was a little bit lost for words because he knows that he no longer can hide his feelings toward Rina.
“Eka, maybe if I stay away from you then everything gets better” Roy tried to compose himself.
“Shut up,” Eka replied, stressed.
Roy knew that the president never felt such foreign emotions
A day passed by, the tranquility can be addicting for Rina whose still laid on the comfortable bed with her loving husband that begged her to eat her porridge. It was a rare sight for Rina who always watched her arrogant husband step down and feed a spoonful of porridge into her mouth. His dedication also knows no bounds, he’s doing his job while tending her needs.Rina felt she received strange kindness from her husband since he usually never treated her this way. Her negative mind told her that her husband might want something from her, so she cautiously asked her husband.“Eka, is there something you want?” Rina asked from her comfortable bed.The Iv on her hand stung her a bit, especially that she always slept in a strange pose that even her husband couldn’t comprehend. She keeps scratching her stung hand, not until Eka skived her hand away.“What are you even saying, Rina? You should be grateful that your loving husband
In another place…When the detective pretended to fall asleep, he could feel the faint presence of someone sneaking into his office. He saw his ceiling as the sound of faint footsteps alerted his senses. Roy brought his gun with him, he pulled out his gun from the drawer next to his bed. He went outside his bedroom to check the source of the sound.Roy aimed his gun at the ceiling, removing the safety trigger as he gazed at the ceiling. He still tried to formulate a plan to counter whoever is sneaking inside his office. If he were to taunt him, who knows what other tricks the enemy is using. The sound disappeared and it was replaced with the sound of someone landing in front of his door.The mysterious person is about to sneak in through the entrance door, Roy hid under his desk as the culprit broke in swiftly. He picks locked the detective agency door, then he must be a skilled burglar or mercenary.He mi
Eka was a bit confused when the phone who called him is an unregistered number. However, Nabila could assume that it is Roy. He asked for the person on the other side of the phone for his identity. However, all he could hear is static and the sound of someone banging on an object. He closed his cell phone, knowing that it might be a prank call.However, he couldn’t shake his thoughts from Roy. The tanned president felt as if something big just happened. He turned on the news, and Roy’s detective agency is in the spotlight of the breaking news. The news reporter around Roy’s house flocked around, his agency was being vandalized by someone.“A passerby claims that he saw a thick red smoke going inside this detective agency house! The agency that belongs to Roy Kurniawan, a private investigator that works to help the police force to uncover some crimes” the female news reporter spoke in such urgency.Eka knew somet
Rina couldn’t believe what she just received, a kiss on her temple from the tyrannic president she used to hate. The president softened up for a bit since she was abducted by those ruffians. She never thought she could feel this happy from receiving such a tender kiss from the president. The playboy president has now made the woman’s heartthrob harder than usual.Nabila entered the room, perhaps replacing the president who is still out on errands. Nabila asked Rina whether something troubling her or she needs a hand in something. Rina shook her head, saying that she will be fine for a while. She was a bit suspicious when she saw the president’s being upset earlier.He quickly masked it with sarcasm then headed somewhere, he didn’t bother to tell Rina where he headed. She could only hope that he’s not pushing himself too hard. She knows how tired the president is, she still remembered that his company is under a lot of media pressure due to
In another place…Roy and Na Yeoul ran as fast as they could when the masked mercenary followed them. The two men are trying to run away from their pursuers in a hurry. Just before the intersection, Eka came unannounced with his sports car. He opened the car door in a hurry, signaling the two men to get inside his car.“Get in!” he yelled.Roy and Na Yeoul entered the car in unison as the streets barraged with endless bullets. Eka, furious with the man in the backseat, glared at Na Yeoul who happened to run away with his best friend. He aimed his gun behind his driver seat, furious about the man who touched his wife and the one who made her suffer.“Roy! Who is this man!? Why is he inside my car!” Eka glared at his best friend.“Calm down Eka! We can discuss that later! For now, let’s avoid the city!” Roy added.Eka clicked his tongue, he drifted his way in the other dir
In Eka’s condominium…Rina was transported through a safe route, avoiding the attention of the street dwellers and the possibility of mercenaries amongst them. Jung Kook and Nene accompanied Rina who is still bedridden, the woman tried her best to sit still on a wheelchair. She swore she could feel the pain in her ribcage area, she would think that her ribcage is almost healed.However, she was far from that dream. The woman looked as if she was going to yelp anytime soon. Jung Kook tried his best to ease Rina’s pain, Nene helped her in her escape as well. Nene’s new boyfriend, Aldi was quite bewildered to even completely comprehend the gravity of the situation he’s in.“Aldi! Hurry up!” Nene told her boyfriend who was lacking behind. “They’re going to break in the condo soon!”.Aldi nodded as he silently followed Jung Kook, Nene, and two other of Eka’s bodyg
“Hang on Miss Nene!” Jung Kook tried to aim for the tires, but the opponent knew his strategy. They dodged his shots, the Korean bodyguard started to lose his patience as he missed his fourth bullets. Jung Kook was also being aimed at by the shooter on the motorcycle. Jung Kook ducks his head from the incoming bullets.His face was grazed by one of the bullets, a scar formed on his left cheek. The man growled under his breath as he silently stared at the pursuers behind his car. Jung Kook made a serious gaze as he fired another bullet at the motorcycle tires, trying to stop the pursuers from chasing. Rina could only hope that she’s in the safe hand.Rina's face was covered by Nene’s jacket, she crumpled the edge of her jacket tightly as she heard the loud bullets hit the glass around her.“It’s going to be alright, my Jung Kook can handle this” Nene reassured the frightened woman who hid under her jacket as she tri
“We’re here” Nene whispered to Rina’s ears.Rina opened her eyes and swore she could hear Eka’s voice from a distance. The car slows down, entering some sort of gigantic gate. Rina’s still drowsy from her sleep, she could feel the windy temperature entering the car. It is due to the shattered glass in the backseat, thanks to the barrage of bullets.Rina was carried gracefully by Nene’s bodyguard Jung Kook, he lifted her slowly from her seat as she sleazily tried to sleep again. Eka and Roy, who already arrived at the mansion, approached the sleepy Rina who is sleeping on Nene’s bodyguard arms. Eka took over and carried her bridal style.The husband barraged his younger sister with countless questions about Rina’s safety, which Nene answered calmly. Eka entered the mansion, calling the maids in a hurry, and asked them to prepare a proper bed for Rina who is still sick. The man soon went to the near
The closing curtains have yet to come to her life, none of the Tanaya Family wants to see such ending befalls on the beautiful woman that is currently closing her eyes, bedridden for eternity.The doctor says that her organs might stop any minute, no one can predict when it will stop. There’s no sign of Rina’s waking up from her slumber, the only thing that they can do is wait patiently for her revival. Eka looks outside his window, holding a novel book that Roy gifted to him.Still, as empty as ever, the man can only sigh as he sees his wife next to him. His physical wounds have yet to heal, especially his chest area which still sting. Roy tells him over and over to get a grip, Eka knows this well that he’s unhealthy when it comes to his deteriorating mental health.He would like to hold his
In another place, Nene’s tears are stifled as she sits under the tree with her bodyguard Jung Kook. The man tries to cheer her up, but only to be silenced by the young woman herself. She’s upset that her father is the cause of Eka’s hollowness. Still, it’s unavoidable that the man is now just an empty vessel.Jung Kook sighs as his eyes gaze on the tree above him, the two share a quiet moment. However, the silence spoon broke as soon as Mrs. Mindy come into the scene. The serious look on her face indicates something dire. She sighs and then speaks frontally to her daughter. The woman suggested something that seems to be out of nowhere.“Nene, what do you think of marriage?” she asks her.Nene is thinking about it, marriage never once cross her mind since she would never have thoug
As days pass by, the young mercenary keeps his professionality in check as the man did whatever Roy tells him to do. He already limits his conversation with the Hills’ daughter, Aveline. He’s still working under the Tanaya household as their mercenary, he kills people if they order him to do.After all, it’s all about the money that he afters and nothing more. However, the face of the Hills’ Company daughter crosses his mind often. Three days pass by since then, Roy has replaced Eka’s place and take care of the company for him. The company still has lots of enemies behind the scenes, since the president has lots of enemies, to begin with.The president made a pact with the darkness, the underworld where evil reigns above all. His allegations against the Tamara Family invite lots of the villains to come for the president’s hea
The blinding white ceilings wake the proud man on a soft white bed, his caramel-skinned eyes grazed the soft white bed, his exhausted onyx eyes scan the white curtains around his bed. His body feels heavy and painful, he barely can move in his current situation. The president groans as he tries to steady his body, the sight of white colors around him disgusts him.The first thing he wakes up to is the sound of the birds chirping happily in the morning. He knows exactly where he is and why he’s there, the man knows that he fell into the fire with the woman. The man chooses to die rather than living alone without Rina by his side, it is his first time to treasure such a woman in his life.Roy comes in time with a canned coffee in hand, he gulps it in one sip. The man looks at Eka as if he enjoys teasing the injured man now that he can’t move fre
Rina lays on the bed helplessly, next to her is none other than her husband. The two share the same fate of being injured. However, only one of them would survive the tragedy. Eka’s major injuries are half of what the woman suffers. Mostly because Rina falls first and then the president follows after.He doesn’t want to be separated by the wife he treasures the most. The man is crazy about her to the point he chose death rather than losing her. Roy knew this, it is why he wants to save them both. The detective sits next to his sworn brother, his reddened eyes couldn’t mask his grief when he sees how his brother and his beloved are in critical condition.Moreover, Rina’s sepsis and organs failure are apparent in her analysis. The doctor only gives the word ‘be strong’. However, they can provide any solution for Rina’s ca
Roy is trying his best to reach the president and the woman he loves, but he doesn’t know if he could make it. Roy doesn’t even know if he could escape the fire himself since he’s quite deep in the mansion. The wildfire starts to reach him, the man is suddenly taken back by a familiar voice behind him.It was none other than Na Yeoul, he broke through the fire using his leathered jacket as a cover. The man then pulls Roy to stay away from the center area, it is where the fire is the biggest. Knowing this fact makes Roy wants to save them both. It is where there are, his beloved woman and his sworn brother.“Wait! I don’t want to leave Eka and Rina!” he yells at the young man behind him. “They’re going to die!”.“Then you want to die uselessly!?”
As the fire rages on, Eka stands under the stairwell as the building slowly collapses. His onyx eyes are empty as the dead fishes when he sees the man that stands before him. It is none other than his grandfather who never visits him since his mother’s death. His eyes filled with hatred, that alone could petrify anyone who crosses eyes with his.Eka aims his gun toward the man before him, it was an emotionless glance between the two men. They’re on the stairwell toward the rooftop, Eka halts him on his way toward the waiting helicopter on the rooftop. The white-bearded old man with majestic circle glasses stares at Eka who is set on killing him.“I will kill you for endangering my family” Eka snaps into anger.“Oh is that so? But didn’t you use your family as bait? That’s wh
The flirtatious mistress is losing her strength, the woman’s ankle slows her movement down. Especially her running speed, decreasing her momentum; the perpetrator is aiming to kill her no matter what. When his hand is about to touch her shoulder, Aveline turns around with a pepper spray in her hand.She sprays the content of the spray bravely toward the man’s face. He was taken back by the sudden spray on his face. As the woman runs away hurriedly, her aching ankles throb in pain. She doesn’t know whether the young mercenary survives the muscular man’s attack. Her mind constantly wandering to know whether the young man is alright.The row of stairs is still long and her leg turns wobbly from the pain, if she’s not careful then she might fall from the height. Sweats engulfed her panicked face as the game of cat and mouse are still o
Na Yeoul arrives in the hotel room, it was empty as expected. Nene’s family is not in the hotel anymore. Like what the detective said, they’re all kidnapped; however, something doesn’t seem right. The guards are all down, it is as if the kidnappers are informed of the numbers and the location.Not to mention the bodyguard’s dying message was that there’s someone among them who betrayed Eka’s trust. Na Yeoul doesn’t understand the deal with Eka’s family, they betrayed people like it’s nothing. As a commoner, Na Yeoul can’t relate to this intricate family drama. He would rather not partake in this matter if he could.The crime scene is rather spotless, if they were to be kidnapped then there should be a sign of struggle. However, there’s no sign of struggle or any bed has been rummaged in any
