It took a few minutes for Bella to come to her senses.
"Good grief! I was so shocked that I froze like this.” The woman went straight to the office and prepared various tasks that her boss had to do. "Who was that girl? I've never seen one," Bella muttered. Even though her hands were busy managing the computer and some of her reports. Her mind was still on the woman Aiden was holding.
"Are the preparations complete?" asked Aiden who suddenly came into the study. Behind there is Sinta who brings drinks.
"Already Mr." Bella was a little surprised.
"Good." Aiden immediately sat down in his work chair, Sinta withdrew after placing black coffee on Aiden's desk.
“This is all my work today?” he asked.
"Yes, Mr. Aiden. Do you want to do work tomorrow?” she offered. In fact, she only served one day's work.
"Yes."
Bella smiled, that answer meant that tomorrow she could take a vacation even for one day.
"Tom
Toni's name appeared on the phone call. One was an unknown number, but she knew that the man had terrorized her and even shot at her bedroom wall some time ago. Dea picked up the driver's phone first because she knew what the man would discuss.“Evening madam. I've seen Mr. Hando. As expected, there's a grandson.""Is Mr. Hando okay?""His body is still installed with a lot of cables. I just don't think it's getting better. Plus I heard a fight between the Old Man and granddaughter.”Dea was silent, 'Why are Mr. Hando and Devano like Tom and Jerry? Even though his condition was sick. If this is the case, when will he recover?’ thought the woman. He was a little upset to hear this news because he thought Devano could take care of Hando better than he could. In reality, the old man's condition was getting worse.“Madam? What should I do?” called Toni impatiently waiting for the next order. The sound broke Dea's thoughts."Go home.""Just like this?""Then, what should I do?"“Humph! Ok
"Sorry Madam. I quickly find out. Please don't get out of the car." Toni looked seriously at Dea. "Whatever happens, please don't come out."The woman just kept quiet and did not answer the driver's request."Please," begged Toni with a pitiful face."Okay. Be careful."The man nodded his head firmly. His eyes were burning, while Dea was filled with worry.She watched seriously the interaction between Toni and the two men who confronted them. The stranger was carrying a blunt object like a baseball bat. While Toni looks alert.“Actually, what's wrong? Why can't my life settle down like this!?” annoyed Dea. She expected a fight to break out there. “Is he going to be fine against those two?”Toni was arguing with one of the men, but the other swung his staff straight at the man. Dea's eyes widened seeing that, and her mouth suddenly shouted, "Toni!"She wanted to get out of the car but all the doors were locked. Luckily Toni immediately lowered his head so the attacker only hit the air.
Because Toni's footsteps were longer than Dea's, it was easier for the man to reach his master in a short distance."Please, madam." Toni gave his mistress a sedative. Dea's breath hitched as her mind turned to the past. Her memories of the car being crushed, the blood pooling on the dashboard, her fiancé lying on the steering wheel, and people wishing for their death.“Argh!” she groaned in pain. She pressed against her chest wishing her memories would fade away. This was torturous for the woman.While Toni immediately drove the car. The training he did with Wijaya was very useful for dealing with Dea.'If Dea's illness recurs, immediately give her medicine and then take her to rest. Just keep an eye on her, let Dea deal with her thoughts. You just need to take care of her so that Dea doesn't hurt his body.' Toni remembered that message. 'My job is to keep madam from hurting herself!' he remembered, his body trying to divide focus towards the street and his mistress.He saw Dea leani
While Aiden was looking for the whereabouts of someone watching him, Wendy interrupted the man's surveillance."Honey, I want all of this," Wendy said with a row of items she wanted to have.Aiden nodded his head, "we take all of this."The salesperson immediately brought all their branded products to the cashier. While the lovers remained in the waiting room."Darling, is there a problem? Why do you look so worried?" she asked."No." The man gently stroked the top of his lover's head."Today so stay?" The woman's eyes showed extraordinary enthusiasm."Em..." Aiden muttered, for some reason, his heartfelt confused. "Sorry, dear..."His words were not finished, but the woman's face immediately sullen. The change in Wendy's expression made Aiden feel guilty, but his current anxiety was uncompromising."So. I have already booked the best room for us,” continued Aiden. At first, he wanted to refuse, but his conscience said to make Wendy happy. He repeatedly canceled appointments with his
Even though he didn't force her to tell him. But that sentence managed to provoke Dea to say what happened after marriage. The psychiatrist is a good listener to his patients."So that's it, sir," Dea ended after telling everything that happened to her.“Fine, I understand. But while interacting with Aiden, as your husband. What happened psychosomatic?”Dea shook her head, her psychological condition was fine when she was with Aiden. Even though they often fight, they don't cause physical disturbances because of their psychological condition.“Psychosomatics only happened when I was in the hospital and rescued victims were trapped in an apartment. So far I can't remember anything that happened before the accident. However, when I heard the perpetrator's voice, my head ached and my ears rang. It feels like going back in time,” she lamented."Okay, I understand, for now, please consume some of the following medicine." The psychiatrist handed Dea a piece of paper. "All medicines are stil
Unlike the others' responses, Dea looked blankly at the woman approaching them. The woman was Wendy. Aiden froze while Kusuma glanced at his wife, whose expression stiffened."Good evening," Rita broke the silence. She glanced at her son and husband alternately. "How are you, Auntie?" Wendy asked as she hugged Rita. Aiden's body felt cold as he witnessed the scene in front of him, especially when Rita frowned disapprovingly at someone hugging her without permission. He quickly pulled Wendy away."Is there something important?" Aiden said, not forgetting to give a faint smile to his girlfriend. "No. I just wanted to say hi after seeing you guys heading into the restaurant," Wendy replied, immediately linking her arm with Aiden's."Oh, I see," Aiden stammered. He slowly released his grip on her arm."We're heading home now, dear," Rita concluded the meeting. "Aww... but Wendy wanted to chat with Auntie," Wendy regretted with a gloomy face."I'm sorry, Wendy, but we have important matter
The phone call continued to go unanswered. Dea even had to call Mr. Bad twice. On the third attempt, she finally heard the annoying man's voice. Dea sighed with relief."Hey, Sweetie, what's up?" Bad asked in a gentle tone. The question grated on Dea's ears. She found the sweet voice utterly repulsive."Do you know about the Lotus group?" Dea asked, getting straight to the point."I do. Why?" replied Bad."Are you a member of them?""Of course... not, Honey." Bad's response hung in the air, irritating Dea. "Is there something with that group? Are they bothering you?" Bad continued, curious.Dea rolled her eyes, "Didn't you say you were supposed to keep me safe? How come you don't know about this?!" she said with irritation."Sorry. I haven't kept my promise; there have been many things I had to deal with lately.""Bullshit!""I'm serious, after this, I'll protect you seriously. I won't make the same mistake again," Mr. Bad pleaded with a hoarse voice, struggling to express the guilt h
The man was guessing what was happening with his wife. It felt very strange to see Dea's friendliness. He was used to seeing her being moody, disheveled, and weary."Today she's even stranger than usual," Aiden thought. He tried to shift his gaze, but couldn't. Because Dea was like a magnet pulling anything to be near her. Even the servants went back and forth, offering small snacks to the woman. Of course, they acted very cheerful when serving Dea."Sir, it's already 7:30. Aren't you supposed to leave for the office?" Asih said. She received a message from Lastro that their employer needed to leave."No. I'll leave now," Aiden replied, his gaze still fixed on his wife. His attention was hard to divert until Asih called him again."Sir."His awareness returned, and he quickly left without saying a word. Asih, who followed him, could only smile because it was amusing to see her employer's behavior. She had realized that Aiden had been looking at Dea for a while. She didn't know what wa
