Now Harriet was asleep. After Sean cleaned the wound on Harriet's knee, now his little daughter managed to close her eyes. Sean's hand slowly wiped the tears from Harriet's dry cheeks. Usually in a situation like this there is Angel who calms Harriet because Harriet is closer to Angel than him. Since Harriet was born into the world, Angel has always been with their little daughter. But now Sean must replace that position. Sean really didn't know what to do now.

There was a knock on the bedroom door, then Anne appeared.

"Is Harriet asleep?" asked Anne in a low voice. She stepped closer and she saw Harriet's knees were blood-stained.

Sean nodded his head as he took a basin filled with water. "Yeah, she just fell asleep."

“I heard Harriet almost got hit by a car. Shouldn't we take her to the hospital?" Indeed, at first glance Harriet looked fine, but Anne was still worried. Anne just didn't want anything bad to happen in the future. "Come on, let's go

    Sean wakes up at 11 o'clock in the afternoon. His eyes were puffy and his head felt dizzy. He stared at the ceiling for a long time like he had no intention of getting off the bed. After that he glanced to his right and there was no one. There was no Angel beside him.Can't this all just a dream?Sean's eyes closed again followed by a heavy sigh. There was no spirit left in Sean's body, only sadness. This really hurts."Sean, are you awake?" Harvey's voice came from outside Sean's room. "You missed your breakfast. Come on, let's have lunch together."Sean chose silence and said nothing. Sean's hands are now tightly embracing Angel's photo, hoping that Angel is really hugging him. Three days had passed since Angel's death, but Sean could never get used to it. Sean's psychic was even more shaken because his life seemed to be over. At this rate, must Sean die so he can see Angel again?"Hey, I'm talking to you." Harvey's voice came again. The differen

    This morning Harriet was woken up and bathed by Anne. Harriet spoke only as needed and she mostly nodded or shook her head when Anne asked. Anne could feel the change. Usually her granddaughter was always chatty and cheerful, but since yesterday Harriet had not shown much expression."Grandma? May I continue eating these pancakes for lunch?” asked Harriet as she took a spoonful of pancakes into her mouth."Why? Are grandma's pancakes bad?"“It's really good, but… I'm not in the mood to eat.”Harriet was in exactly the same condition as Sean. They have no appetite and seem uninspired. Anne understands that they are grieving the loss of Angel, but what if they get sick over time? Harriet's face even looked a little pale now.Anne smiled and stroked Harriet's curls. "It's okay, you don't have to eat these pancakes. Would Harriet want something for lunch?”Harriet was silent for a moment as if in thought. To be hon

    While watching the film, Harvey could not enjoy his time properly. After Steve said that he was caught, security came to intervene. Steve walked away with a sly smile and Harvey couldn't help but stare. What actually happened? What do Steve's words mean?Harvey glanced at Sean who was seriously watching a movie. They are still in the wrong theater, the theater that shows cartoons. None of the staff checked the tickets and Sean didn't seem to mind the cartoons they were watching. But Harvey felt a little lucky that Sean was heard laughing once. It wasn't a big laugh, but at least Harvey felt he had done one thing right to cheer up Sean."I think Harriet should see this movie," Sean said earnestly."Hmmm. We have to bring her here after her knee heals.” Harvey agrees.An hour later the film ends. Sean and Harvey walked out of the theater feeling a little better. After a lot of things had happened, they were finally able to refresh their minds. Even if

    Sean didn't understand Harvey's suspicion of Steve. Steve used to be Sean's school friend, then they lost contact until Sean found out that Steve was a lawyer and Steve completed his divorce from Jessie. Angel had also worked at Steve's law firm in the past, but Sean could see that Steve was a good person. How could Harvey make such a judgment?"You have a meeting at 3 pm with the JCO company, right?" asked Harvey, checking his cell phone. Caroline sent him Harvey's schedule for the day."I guess so," said Sean uncertainly. He even ignores all incoming messages and calls. Sean's cell phone was only useful for browsing Angel's photos.Harvey took a deep breath, then he put his phone in his jacket pocket. “I will read the proposal your secretary gave. You just go into the house, let me replace you for the meeting."“You are really useful being my big brother.” Sean thanked him in his own way as he got out of the car."It's not free.

    Sean returned to the office after a long time. Suddenly Harvey called him because there was one important thing and it made Sean couldn't help but come here."Why are you looking around like you're not familiar with this office?" Harvey taunted because Sean was staring at this office with a strange look. It must have been because Sean had neglected his office for too long.“Why did you change this sofa? And why did you bring your blanket here?”“I often stay up here because someone is neglecting his own company.”"I'm not neglecting my office, I just need a break."Harvey smiled as he nodded. "I'm just kidding. Sorry I forced you to come here. If you don't come, the CEO of JCO won't want to invest here."Sean and Harvey have finished their business which fortunately all ended well.

Yes, a professional detective Harvey hired to find out about Steve. Harvey was sure that something was wrong with Steve.“His name is Steve Hans and he is originally from the UK. He owns a fairly well-known law firm here. Those who know Steve admit that Steve is a kind and friendly person. There's no record of a crime, everything's clear, but there is one thing that is suspicious.” Dalton pulled out a file and it was the call history."What's this?" asked Harvey in surprise.Dalton circled 3 tables on paper using a red pen. “Steve contacted a man named Philiph on March 16, 17 and 18. Didn't Angel and Harriet have an accident on March 18th while they were going to the hospital?"Harvey was silent for a moment, then he nodded. “That's right, the accident happene

    Anne knocked on Sean's door several times, but there was no answer from inside, very quiet. Last night Sean asked to be woken up early because he wanted to get back to work. After coming home from work yesterday, Sean realized that busy with work is better than sitting around and drowning in sadness. Sean didn't try to deny reality let alone try to forget Angel. It is an impossibility. Sean just wanted his mind to settle down a bit."Sean? Are you still sleeping?”This time Anne opened the bedroom door and she stepped inside. Why is Sean's bed empty? Was it possible that Sean had gone to the office this early? But it's only 6 in the morning, so it doesn't seem possible. What's more, Sean's cell phone and wallet are still on the nightstand. Or maybe his youngest son was jogging around the complex?As Anne thought of that possibility, she chose to enter Harriet's room. Anne slowly opened the door to Harriet's room, but on the bed there was not only her grand

    It's been a month since Darla sprained her leg. So it's been a month since Darla hasn't spoken to Sean again. Darla forgot about Steve's threats because she was already hurt by Sean's words. How could Darla approach Sean when Sean's attitude was so arrogant? Besides... besides that Darla is pregnant. Yes, Darla got pregnant by Sean.

    Darla never imagined that she would be in this situation. She was on Sean's back. Yes, Sean carried her to the mini market. Darla could not focus because Sean's back was so board and wide, besides that the smell of Sean's perfume made Darla mesmerized. Sean's perfume was already mixed with sweat and it reminded her of the time they had sex a few days ago. "Wrap your hands around my neck," Sean said because Darla almost fell over. Slowly Darla's hands were now on Sean's neck. She had been holding Sean's shoulder because she felt it was too awkward. To be honest she was shy, but she couldn't walk alone either. Her ankle was too sore. "Sorry, I must be heavy," said Darla feeling bad. "No, you're not heavy." "I weigh 50 kg." Darla said honestly. “Why did you say that? Do you want to know my weight?” Sean chimed in. "I just wanted to let you know that I'm heavy." "If you're still saying the same thing then I'll leave you her

She had been quiet for a while in the club and asked Britney for an opinion, after which she decided to take time off work that night. So Darla came back home around 10 and Noah was asleep. Ah, she hasn't even spoken to her younger brother since yesterday afternoon.To refresh her mind, Darla decided to jog around the complex. She also hadn't exercised in a long time so her muscles felt stiff. After warming up, Darla started jogging. She has heard that when we are stressed, jogging is one of the sports that can be used as an option.Yes, Darla is under a lot of stress. Britney's words are still etched in her mind. Darla really had no other choice but to refuse Steve's request, so Darla couldn't help but obey. Darla must look for evidence while she pretends to cooperate with Steve. She honestly didn't want to set Sean up, but Noah's life was at stake.

    Harriet was still pretending to be asleep even as Sean carried her. Noah walked behind Sean and Anne, so Noah could see that Harriet was slowly opening her eyes. Noah smiled and Harriet smiled back."Go back to sleep," Noah said quietly.Harriet immediately closed her eyes again. She was quite happy to meet Noah even though this afternoon Sean forbade them to meet. And she was also happy to be carried by Sean. Harriet missed Sean's warm embrace."Noah? Come and walk beside me."Anne's words made Noah run over, so they all walked side by side down the cemetery area. Anne's wrinkled hand gripped Noah's.“We want to thank you. If you hadn't told us about Angel’s grave, we might not have thought of coming here. Previously we were really frantic and panicked,” said Anne gratefully."Yeah, you're welcome, Grandma. Because the only place I can think of is this.” Noah gave a sweet smile."Thank you darling." Once again

    In Sean's hand was a toy in the form of a lego. He had just bought this at a toy store as he was going home. Harriet will definitely love this lego. Previously Harriet was still angry that she didn't want to talk to Sean. Sean understood that because lately he had been quite fond of his little daughter.When Sean arrived at his house, he saw Anne was in the yard looking for something. "Mom, what's wrong? What are you looking for?” Sean asked.Anne approached Sean and her face showed panic. “Sean… Harriet disappeared. She's not in the house," answered Anne in a trembling voice."W-what?" Sean's eyes widened in surprise. His heart felt like it was going to burst when he heard that. "Are you sure, Mom?""Yeah, I haven't been able to find Harriet since."Sean immediately ran to enter the house. He entered Harriet's room which was no longer locked even though his little daughter had locked it since this afternoon. Sean's feet searched

    "Britney? May I ask your advice?”Those were the first words that came out of Darla's lips as soon as she approached Britney. Britney exhaled the smoke, then she pressed the butt against the ashtray."What do you want to ask?"Darla sat down next to Britney. To be honest she was hesitant to talk let alone ask for advice from Britney. Darla used to keep everything to herself, but this time she felt like she wanted to share her worries. Darla wanted to know what a Britney's point of view was."I ... I mean it's about my friend," Darla lied. She couldn't possibly say that this was about her. If Britney knew the truth, Britney might be more frustrated than Darla.“What problem does your friend have?”Darla fiddled with her fingers for a moment before she worked up the courage to speak. “My friend received a threat from someone. She was told to make a man love her, then after that my friend had to leave the man. She is in

    Darla was just about to enter the nightclub where she worked and just at that moment Steve called her. She squeezed the phone in her hand because she didn't want to talk to Steve at all. She had already guessed that Steve would ask about the progress of her relationship with Sean. Oh, this can't even be called progress. They even had a fight this afternoon."What are you calling me for?" she asked as soon as she picked up Steve's call. She pulled over to the side of the road right beside the nightclub."Is there any progress?" Steve asked matter-of-factly."Steve, didn't you give me three months?" Darla reminded Steve."Yeah, I'm just making sure you don't retreat unilaterally."Darla snorted. “Did I think I had that kind of opportunity? You put me in the most difficult position.”"It's good that you're aware of that." Steve laughed with satisfaction. “If you are caught unilaterally retreating, then I will not hesitate to k

    "Could you show us where your basement is?"Steve did not immediately respond to Xavier's request and it made Harvey smile. Steve seemed a bit taken aback and maybe he was starting to get intimidated that Harvey knew about the secret room.“Yeah, sure, but I haven't been in the basement in a while so maybe it'll get pretty dirty. Maybe about 6 months ago,” Steve said pretending to think.Steve walked in front of them. There is a door and in that room there is a secret staircase leading to the basement. They all descended the stairs and now they were all finally in the basement. Steve turned on the light switch, but the light was dim as a sign that this room was rarely visited. Xavier and his team are even pretty sure that this basement was probably last visited a few months ago. This basement room is dirty and stuffy."This must be your trick. You want to deceive us all," said Harvey confidently. Previously, Dalton had talked about this baseme

    After making sure Caroline was waiting in the car, Harvey walked behind Xavier's team. Harvey tried to call Steve's cell phone number to find out if Steve was home or not, but Steve didn't pick up at all. Steve was certainly confused after his crime was caught until the rescue team was here.Harvey and Xavier's team stepped further into the house. This house is very quiet as if uninhabited. Suddenly they heard the sound of the cell phone ringing tone.Xavier glanced at Harvey. "Are you calling him?" Harvey nodded his head, then he showed Xavier the screen of his cell phone. He did call Steve, but he didn't pick up. "Keep calling him. I'm sure he'll pick up if you keep calling him.""Yeah, looks like Steve still doesn't know we're here."“You better look for something in every corner of this house. If there's anything suspicious, you can tell me right away,” Xavier told his team of two men."Okay sir," they answered in unison, then they
