Zain quickly carried out the task given by Hando. He never resisted anything instructed by the middle-aged man. With trembling hands, he placed the typewriter and the stamp requested by Hando on the table. His fingers started typing a few letters quickly on the paper, and Zain watched with a racing heart. Meanwhile, Dea seemed indifferent, not wanting to interfere in the affairs of the two men. Even Toni chose to leave the room as he felt this wasn't his domain."Dear, put your thumb in the ink pad there. Then press it here," Hando instructed, a smile on his face as he observed his work.Dea raised an eyebrow, "Why, Dad?""Just do it. Dad will tell you. This isn't a crime, just a small gift from me," Hando reassured. He understood his daughter's uneasiness. She glanced at Zain for a moment, sighing quietly, as the man didn't dare to meet her gaze. Eventually, she did as her father instructed, pressing her thumb on the paper that contained a collection of words."Good," Hando expressed

"Stop," Wendy glared at Dea, intensifying the tension in the room. The physical touch from Aiden's girlfriend conveyed a strong force through Dea's body. She glanced briefly at Wendy. The woman's furrowed eyebrows and forehead, fiery eyes, and tightly shut mouth all indicated a volatile situation. Dea understood what Wendy was feeling. 'Always something,' Dea thought.Everyone in the living room stared at the interaction between the two women in silence. Most of them widened their eyes as if trying to catch every moment of this intense scene. Reluctant to engage in an argument, Dea let out a sigh and without responding to her opponent, tried to break free from Wendy's grip, intending to walk into the bedroom. However, Wendy suddenly grabbed her hair. In response to this rough treatment, Dea instinctively stepped back."Wendy!" someone shouted as they witnessed the scene. It was a combination of various voices that turned into a unified shout, creating a chaotic atmosphere. The delicat

Not long after, Dea approached Aiden with a neutral expression. Initially, she had intended to go to bed earlier, but her plans were thwarted yet again by a call from her contract husband. Her lips jutted out slightly as she asked, "What is it?"Aiden could sense the irritation in his wife's demeanor. He had prepared himself for all the emotions that usually accompanied Dea. Before answering, he took a moment to exhale, composing himself."Please, sit down," he instructed, a command that Dea complied with. She made no resistance, surprising Aiden who had expected her to protest. His assumption was proven wrong; his wife followed his instructions in silence. Yes, even though her gaze was icy, it didn't change the fact that his command had been communicated clearly."Akhem," Aiden cleared his throat to ease the tension. "Do you remember Dad's message from the dinner the day before yesterday?" he began, initiating a conversation with his wife."Yes." There was no expression on Dea's face

After conversing with Dea, Aiden watched her departure until her back disappeared from his sight. It didn't take long before he immersed himself in deep thought. The dim lights adorned the living room with warmth. His head was filled with various problems he was currently facing. He let out a hot breath from his nostrils, savoring the slight burning sensation in his sclera."Why does tomorrow feel so far away?" he asked himself. "I want to resolve this issue as soon as possible."He had received a schedule for a meeting with Jamono and Triyo. This was good news for him, considering he had to plead with his father-in-law to expedite the group's plans. Wijaya's words had been fulfilled, and now it was his turn to fill in the stages of their plan."One million dollars, I hope my money won't go to waste like last year. Especially with Candra pressuring me, and that damn investor getting increasingly rude to me." Aiden clenched his hand tightly, he still remembered how he had chased an int

In a room bathed in ample light, Dea sat comfortably on an old sofa. Although it appeared somewhat worn, the seat was incredibly soft and cradled her body well. She looked around the room without blinking, taking in the antique decorations scattered here and there. A faint sigh could be heard from someone nearby. Dea turned her head to locate the source of the sound, a radiant smile spreading across her face."Ah..." Hando appeared somewhat startled by the sight before him. "Since when have you been here?" he asked his daughter. Before responding, Dea leaned closer to the middle-aged man."About 30 minutes.""My dear, why didn't you wake me up?" Hando placed his hand on his forehead, as if unable to believe his daughter's answer."I didn't want to disturb your sleep."Hando looked at Dea with genuine warmth, then recalled one of the people waiting for him earlier in the morning. "Where is that young man?""He's outside," Dea replied. She knew exactly who Hando was referring to. The ma

Aiden's eyes widened, and his body froze in surprise as he felt someone physically embrace him. He quickly turned around to see who had hugged him without any warning. After realizing it was Wendy, he let out a sigh.A person with a wide grin and sparkling eyes greeted him, "Hi, Baby!"Her soothing and sweet voice eased Aiden's heart, and he found himself reaching out to hold Wendy's arm. "Hi, dear. Why didn't you tell me you were coming to my office?" he asked, slightly flustered."I wanted to surprise you. Are you happy?" Her innocent, earnest gaze melted Aiden's heart."Of course, I'm happy. But... I still have work, and I'm waiting for a new investor for our company. Can you wait for me in my office? Bella is there; you can ask her for anything.""Hmm..." Wendy formed puppy eyes and placed her index finger on her lips. "So, you're very busy today?""Not too busy. The most important task today is welcoming the new investor. It will take at most an hour. Wait for me there, okay?" Ai

"Has Mr. Aiden been missing Madam since they parted ways?" teased one of the executives sitting beside Aiden. The question caused Aiden to blink his eyes a few times."That's impossible.""Ahaha... No need to lie, sir. We know what it's like to be newlyweds. Every second, every minute, you want to be with your wife," the man teased again. Everyone chuckled at the jest."Of course, my daughter-in-law is very beautiful. He must not be able to take his eyes off her," Kusuma replied, followed by laughter from everyone. His staff's statement was indeed accurate if it were a normal marriage. Unfortunately, Dea and Aiden had only entered into a contract marriage with no chemistry between them. Kusuma and Rita smiled at their son's awkwardness."Darn, why am I the subject of jokes like this?" he muttered to himself. "Dea is indeed beautiful. But what's the use if she's a crazy, sickly woman?" His mind couldn't stop negatively commenting about his wife."What are your plans for having grandchi

At the doorway stood Aiden and Elvaro, their eyes widening as they witnessed the heated scene before them. Aiden's eyes turned red, his brows furrowing deeply. He glared fiercely at Dea. His steps quickened as he approached the two women."What's going on, Dea!?" Aiden shouted, pushing Dea's body without realizing it. Dea, weaker than Aiden and caught off guard, immediately sat down on the sofa. The difference in strength and her lack of preparedness left her stunned. She never expected Aiden to touch her, let alone resort to violence. Her eyebrows furrowed, indicating the rising anger within her. Her previously heated temper was now boiling.Bella, who was beside them, also widened her eyes at the scene. The secretary tried to assist Dea but was halted as the person she wanted to help resisted.Aiden continued to stare at his wife with intensity. Wendy, being the cunning woman she was, wouldn't waste this golden opportunity. She acted as if she were a helpless victim. She quickly app
