Betrayal Behind the Scenes/Cchania De
Keanu and Charlotte held hands as they chased after Lucius, who had disappeared after Keanu had managed to knock him down earlier. Just moments before, when Charlotte had just arrived at the apartment, Lucius suddenly attacked her.It all happened so fast that Charlotte couldn't even fight back. The man had transformed into a predator, driven by ego and lust. Even though Charlotte repeatedly called for help and tried to make Lucius snap out of it, the silver-haired man didn't listen."Are you tired?" Keanu asked, releasing his grip on Charlotte's hand.She shook her head, her breath ragged but still determined to chase Lucius. "We have to catch him.""You should wait at the apartment. I'll go after Lucius," Keanu said.Again, Charlotte shook her head. "He's an employee at my house, he almost physically hurt me, and he even tried to rape me. He's not like the Lucius I know.""He's not the Lucius, you know," Keanu replied.Charlotte frowned. "What do you mean? I've known him for years—"

"I never expected... Lucius, do something like this for our family. Have we not been good enough to him all this time? Or maybe we made some mistake that made him hold such a grudge against us?" Svarga wondered aloud.Catherine shook her head, unsure of her husband's suspicion. "Lucius has been so loyal to us. He's worked for us since he was young and has rarely made any mistakes. It's unbelievable that he would harm us in this way."Charlotte, meantime, was sitting in the room's corner, cuddling up to herself with a blanket while she stared vacantly up at the seemingly impending rainy night sky. She had just called Jarvey, crying as she recounted everything that had happened that night. Jarvey promised to fly in from the Netherlands tomorrow to be with her."Sweetheart, what would you like to eat? It would help if you were hungry," Catherine asked."Where's Keanu?" Charlotte asked instead."He's with the police.""He's not guilty. He saved me," Charlotte said."You're right, dear, bu

Alexander used Lucius' facilities, even sneaking into the Oweis family home as if he were the honest Lucius. He observed everyone's movements in the house, studied the cases at hand, and positioned himself as someone with considerable influence there."Lucius, your friend has passed away," Svarga said.Alexander remained composed and followed all the procedures well because Lucius was caught on CCTV at the hotel where the incident occurred. Alexander was a little afraid that the police would suspect or recognize him as Alexander. However, all his fears disappeared when he accidentally found a recording of a phone call from Karletta to Lucius at night. In that call, Karletta asked for help, her voice trembling, with the sound of objects crashing in the background and ending with Karletta's scream.Alexander used this recording as evidence, indirectly strengthening the case that Karletta was not guilty. When she was declared innocent, Alexander asked Svarga and Catherine for permission

"KEANU!" Charlotte shouted just as he was about to step out the door. Keanu turned around, slightly stepping back as Charlotte tried to grab his wrist."What is it?" Keanu asked."I'm sorry... I misunderstood you," Charlotte said sincerely."Ah, don’t worry about it. Just stop being so stubborn. Try to look at problems from more than just your perspective, and you’ll understand that not everything is easy for you to know," Keanu replied, then turned back around."Where are you going?" Charlotte asked."To Jarvey’s apartment, of course. He’s already permitted me to stay there. So, you better stay at your parents' house. Sorry for kicking you out." Keanu didn’t say anything more, turning and quickly leaving Charlotte behind.Keanu could never stand being near Charlotte. He had to forget that he once had unique feelings for her. Charlotte was too beautiful to look at simply; her smooth skin made many people want to be close to her. Keanu, in particular, never hated Charlotte—he didn’t wa

The trial was drawing closer, and Jarvey soon met with Keanu to handle preparations for his role as a witness. Liam was supposed to join them but had to accompany Dhira, who was at the hospital with Easton."Have you seen Charlotte?" Keanu asked."I saw her early this morning, but I remembered that I have to assist you at the trial later," Jarvey replied.Keanu smiled slightly. "She's not mad, is she?""Why would she be mad? She's not a spoiled woman; she understands me very well… or maybe she even loves how busy I am because it means I'm making more money."Keanu laughed. "Rich people's love lives always seem to involve money, don't they?""Because in reality, a marriage that relies solely on love won't last long," Jarvey said."Is that so?"Jarvey shrugged. "Maybe. But Charlotte once talked to me about it. She mentioned your mother's marriage to your father, which ended in divorce."Keanu felt numb; he no longer got offended when others brought up his father. "What exactly does Char

Catherine just realized that her house's CCTV cameras had been non-functional for almost a month. Now, she was stressed about recovering the old CCTV data so it wouldn't be lost, as it had already been happening. She hired several experts in the field of surveillance camera repair to check if anything was wrong with the computers monitoring the cameras."How could this happen?" Catherine murmured, massaging her forehead, which suddenly felt painful. She remembered the recent issues and asked one of her house staff, "Do you recall when someone who looked like Lucius was last at the house?""About a week ago, ma'am. He is rarely seen entering the server room, but occasionally, he passes by the door," answered one of the staff who often monitored the house."Have you ever seen him doing anything suspicious?""I didn't really pay attention, ma'am, but he does often check his phone and take secretive phone calls from time to time," the staff member revealed.Catherine thanked the staff and

Keanu stood up, his face as cold as ever. He didn't respond, and that immediately caused Charlotte to cry. Fortunately, the coffee shop wasn't too crowded, so no one noticed as Charlotte covered her face to cry.Keanu, who was about to leave, changed his mind. He sat down and said, "Since when did you become so dramatic, Charlotte? Do you think I'll soften just because you're crying? Even if you were Karletta, I'd still leave if your words made me reluctant to talk."Charlotte wiped away her tears. "I'm sorry... but please, listen to me first.""I've already listened to you, and my answer is still no. I won't return to the Louvre to work," Keanu said firmly. The man with eyes like obsidian gently touched Charlotte's cheek with the tip of his thumb, softly wiping away the remaining tears."There are many people more capable in that field. I'm not as skilled as you think… besides, I'm too ashamed," Keanu lowered his voice. "I'm even ashamed to still be your friend after everything my mot

Today is Arsila's first trial, where she will hear what punishment will be given to her. She sits in the defendant's chair wearing an orange shirt, her hands chained and cuffed, while another defendant, Alexander, sits not far beside her.Her eyes stare blankly when they meet Keanu, who sits on the witness stand alongside Jarvey. Arsila seems to lose her breath when the judge says Keanu will testify that his mother is guilty. Her tear-filled eyes say, "Hey, I'm your mother...""Mr. Keanu Hart, please present your testimony."Keanu suddenly trembles, his legs weakening at the piercing look from his mother. Jarvey then asks if Keanu can say everything, and Keanu shakes his head in response."Excuse me, Your Honor. I will present all of the accusations from my client," said Jarvey."Please proceed."The guests, including the Oweis-Chandra family, Liam, Dhira, Easton, and Lucius, watched the trial with great focus. There was silence among them, as no one wanted to miss a single word.Jarv

"Son, you're not planning to return home right away, right?" Catherine asked, wondering where Keanu lived now."I'll go home tomorrow or the day after," Keanu replied."You're not planning to return to the Louvre again?"Keanu nodded in response."Charlotte wants to give you a gift," Catherine informed him."I know, Madam, but I'm sorry, I can't accept it," Keanu said, refusing as he had told Charlotte before.Catherine sighed. She wanted to persuade Keanu, but she understood this young man was not as she had imagined. Catherine once thought Keanu would have the same traits as his father and mother. She thought he would be selfish, but his firmness was like Arsila.When Keanu spoke, whatever came out of his mouth was what he intended to do, like Arsila."Does that mean you won't see your mother for the last time?" Catherine asked again."Yes... maybe so. I've contacted Karletta, and she's not interested either. We're not interested in seeing our mother again," Keanu answered sharply.

It's unclear what motivates Havella, but the woman wants to cancel Jarvey and Charlotte's relationship. Whenever Jarvey asks, Havella seems to have an answer that shuts down her son's questions."You can't marry her. I'm telling you, you cannot marry her," Havella said.Jarvey turned to his father, who had barely spoken since Havella made that decision. "I'm an adult. I can make my own decisions," Jarvey said, trying to stand firm against his parents' words."Really? You think you're that capable, Jarvey?" Havella asked, her tone filled with skepticism. "I could cancel your education; you won't need to become a lawyer, judge, or prosecutor! Your dreams will remain dreams!"Havella's words slowly made Jarvey lose his nerve. He stared at his mother with a pale face, suddenly rendered speechless. Noah approached Jarvey, inviting his son to sit with him. "A lot has happened with the Oweis family. As your parents, we don't want to ruin your reputation, son."Jarvey frowned, his breathing h
