They asked in unison. The eight women looked puzzled.“It’s nothing out of the ordinary; I think it’s a matter of business rivalry. That’s the preliminary assessment from my bodyguard,” said Stella, then turned to Zaqqy. “Right, Zaqqy?”“That’s the most likely scenario, Young Lady,” replied Zaqqy, his face expressionless. He didn’t even glance in the direction of Stella’s friends, who were watching him intently.“Right then, let’s wrap up today’s discussion. There are a few things that got put on hold because I wasn’t here yesterday, weren’t there?” suggested Stella.Her friends nodded. The conversation began, punctuated by occasional laughter. Several women there kept glancing at Zaqqy, admiring his dashing and aloof appearance. Before they knew it, two hours had passed. The meeting came to an end and they began to disperse.“Stella, I’d like to have a quick word. Could you ask your bodyguard to step aside for a moment?” whispered Steffi, winking.“Sure,” Stella smiled faintly b

Dwi Toro cursed in pain. He quickly got to his feet, clutching his chest, which was throbbing with excruciating pain. Zaqqy rushed after him, but Dwi Toro was quicker to get into his car and immediately put his foot down to make a getaway.“Bloody cheek!” Zaqqy cursed. He returned to his car and was startled. “Goodness me, Miss! I’m surprised to see you here,” Zaqqy said, shocked to see Stella had moved to the front seat. “Should we chase after him, Miss?” he asked, immediately changing the subject.“No need. I don’t know him. What was his motive for attacking us? Was he targeting you, or what exactly did he want?” Stella asked in return, her tone probing.“I don’t know either, Young Lady. Perhaps he intended to attack you, but since I’ve been working with you, I thwarted his plan. If someone like you is attacked, that’s nothing out of the ordinary, is it? You come from a distinguished family; there must be business rivalry amongst you.”Stella adjusted her sitting position and faste

“We don’t seem to know you,” Zaqqy said firmly. “Why have you stopped us?” he asked, puzzled and suspicious.Dwi Toro simply stood there staring at Zaqqy, studying the young man’s hands. He could sense a different aura emanating from them. Dwi Toro then reached out his hand, making Zaqqy even more wary. Zaqqy shifted his body to the side, looking around, and only then realised one thing: the place where they had stopped was a very deserted street.“It seems I was brought here without realising it. Who is this man?” Zaqqy wondered to himself, continuing to watch the stranger in front of him warily. Before he could find an answer, Dwi Toro immediately lunged at him. Thud!Thud!Zaqqy, who possessed the Brajamusti technique and the power of Ki Braja, reflexively parried Dwi Toro’s flurry of blows. He crossed his arms to defend himself.However, Dwi Toro’s speed was not to be underestimated. He unleashed a flurry of kicks towards Zaqqy’s chest and stomach. Once again, Zaqqy managed

Dwi Toro smiled faintly. He could sense a very powerful aura ahead of him. A white car sped off as the lights turned green. Dwi Toro immediately pressed the accelerator; he didn’t want to be left behind.“You can’t be left behind. Your energy, your power… it’s really piqued the curiosity of the Suro Menggala group,” muttered Dwi Toro. He was absolutely determined to track down Zaqqy right now.Meanwhile, Zaqqy was driving at a fairly high but steady speed. Stella, sitting in the back seat, was focused on her mobile phone. “Hello, Beb? Yes, it’s me again, on my way to the restaurant as we agreed. A few meetings will also be held shortly. I’ve just been informed that the meeting is at the AD Hotel because I have to stand in for Papa today,” said Stella on the phone.Zaqqy remained silent, listening as his employer spoke on the phone.“Oh, by the way, I’ve also got a personal bodyguard. I also need an assistant to handle some of my work later—someone who’s definitely an expert in the

Jefri looked very pleased, then quickly left the place.Zaqqy carried on walking. As he already knew where his office was, he walked briskly towards the lift and went up to the third floor. It turned out that Stella had just come out and spotted him arriving.“Get yourself ready, will you? I’ve got an appointment at the restaurant today,” said Stella.“Right, Miss,” replied Zaqqy.He went straight into his unlocked room. As soon as he got inside, he saw a card. Zaqqy smiled slightly; it turned out his room door didn’t use a regular key, but an access card.With a quick movement, he immediately freshened up. Upon opening the wardrobe, he saw the aide’s uniform—a neatly folded white jacket. Zaqqy furrowed his brow and shook his head.“Why is the jacket white? An aide’s uniform should be black. That’s so strange. Ah, never mind, there’s no other choice,” he muttered.Zaqqy immediately put on the uniform. He looked very dashing. He clipped a communication device to his ear, then chec

Zaqqy left immediately after saying his goodbyes. Mr Imron and Mrs Sri gazed quietly at their son’s back until he disappeared around the bend in the road.There was a sense of heaviness in the air, knowing that Zaqqy was going off to work and would not be returning for an indefinite period.“Watch over my son wherever he may be, O Allah,” Mrs Sri said in her prayer. Once Zaqqy was out of sight, the two of them looked at each other and clasped hands.“Trust our son. Be confident that Zaqqy will be all right and that he will do well at work too,” said the husband, trying to reassure his wife. The woman merely nodded slowly. Meanwhile, on the road, Zaqqy reached into his pocket. He looked at the money he had saved from working for the past few days.“Will it be enough to get there? I think so. A thirty-minute journey isn’t too far. I could take a taxi... oh, no, that’s out of the question; taxis are too expensive. Should I just take an online ride-hailing service? But I haven’t downlo
