Hearing Zofia’s question, Christian was perplexed about how to answer. He then turned to Dorota to ask her what he should say.Although not uttering a word, Dorota understood what Christian meant. She nodded, signaling Christian to tell the truth.According to Dorota, honesty is something crucial and valuable. Despite being painful in the end, it will have a positive impact in the future.It seems this time Christian will follow Dorota’s advice to speak the truth.Then the man turned to Zofia and said, “Emma is currently at her home. Something has just happened, something heavy.”Zofia was shocked to hear Christian’s words mentioning that Emma was facing a significant problem. Surely, she became curious about the big issue Emma was going through.“Emma has a big problem again? What kind of problem is she facing?” Zofia asked with a voice and face that indicated her concern.It was indeed difficult for Christian to talk about the immoral actions of Naoki towards Emma’s mother. However,
Emma’s mother was hysterical upon seeing Zofia. It was as if she had seen a ghost haunting her.Zofia and Emma released each other from their embrace. Emma then hurriedly approached her mother to console her.“Mom, what’s wrong? Calm down! It’s me, Emma!” Emma said, gently patting her mother’s cheek.However, the middle-aged woman shook her head, pointing at Zofia’s face.“She’s a criminal! She’s the one who hurt Mama! She’s a murderer!” the woman exclaimed.Emma’s mother saw Zofia as a criminal, attributing the incident that befell her to Zofia’s actions.Even though the criminal’s target was Emma, the middle-aged woman considered Zofia the cause of it all based on what Naoki had said in conversation with his two friends. They were paid by Zofia to seek revenge.While it was a deceitful tactic by Naoki to make Emma suffer more by turning her against someone close to her, namely Zofia.Hearing her mother’s words made Zofia feel sad. She didn’t even know what had happened, yet she was
It’s not wrong if Emma thinks like that. After all, the one who said it was her own mother, who became a victim. Christian did not reject or blame what Emma’s mother said about Zofia being behind the incident. However, he guided Emma not to jump to conclusions about Zofia first before everything was proven. “I’m confident in what your Mom said, hearing it from Naoki that Zofia is the mastermind behind everything that happened to your mom. But I just doubt what Naoki said. It might be a tactic of his to worsen your relationship with Zofia,” Christian said in a gentle voice while holding both of Emma’s shoulders. The woman nodded her head. Fortunately, she understood what Christian said. Although she trusted her mother, Christian’s reasonable explanation allowed her to suppress her anger towards Zofia. “I’m asking for Darrell’s help to find out what really happened. So, I ask you not to think negatively about Zofia before knowing the truth. I know you’re a smart and wise person, so y
Darrell recalled a few recent events that ended in difficulty. Despite everything being manageable, it still caused a lot of trouble.“Do you think telling him will make this problem easier to handle? Or will it complicate matters further because we’ll be fighting sooner? We know Mr. Demetri’s current condition; he can’t move with high intensity. He can’t even jump around,” Darrell asked, seeking Kenji’s opinion.Darrell rarely sought the opinions of his subordinates first. If he did, it meant he was very confused and couldn’t make a decision.“I don’t recommend a confrontation. I think, because it’s still early, it will be easier to resolve. Miss Yve is Mr. Demetri’s wife, so they will likely resolve their household issues together. They will talk heart-to-heart to find a way out of this problem,” Kenji expressed his thoughts.“So, you think they’ll resolve this issue internally?” Darrell asked.“That’s correct, Boss. It’s not possible that if we have a problem in our household, we’l
It’s clear that Darrell currently wants Christian to resolve his issues. Even though he plans to address them alone with Yve, Darrell has to ensure it happens.“Come on, Darrell, this is a matter of my household. I’ll handle it my way,” Christian said, silencing Darrell.Darrell had nothing more to say. If Christian stated that he would handle it on his own, Darrell could only nod.“Alright then, just prepare the car. I’m ready to rest!” Darrell bowed, saying, “Yes, Sir.”After that, Darrell immediately turned to his subordinates to prepare the car.“Tell the driver to get the car ready. Mr. Demetri is heading home!”“Understood, Boss Darrell!”***After receiving a large bouquet of flowers that impressed her, Yve immediately contacted Nolan to ask for an explanation of why he gave her the flowers and to express her gratitude after hearing Nolan’s explanation.“Hello! Nolan, it’s me, Yve!” Yve exclaimed when Nolan answered her call.“Yeah, I already knew. Even without looking at the
At this moment, Camila was undoubtedly on Yve’s side. For the middle-aged woman, becoming the mother-in-law of a conglomerate was her dream.Moreover, and most importantly, was Nolan’s wealth. Of course, if that man became her son-in-law, she would enjoy a significant amount of money every month.She didn’t want her dreams to fall apart, not even by her own daughter.“Why can’t it be like that? I’m speaking the truth, you know! If she was so angry back then, why is she doing this now? Doesn’t she feel ashamed?” Lyka asked. The young woman didn’t care at all about Yve’s status as her sister.“Are you talking about your issues with your sister a while ago because of Christian?” Camila asked, raising her eyebrows.Lyka refused to answer that question and chose to remain silent. It was impossible for her to explain.“In that case, yes, it’s clearly different! You went out with Christian to the nightclub and then caused trouble. And again, because Christian’s status is poor and there’s no
Who wouldn’t be surprised and angered if suddenly someone, out of the blue, without any warning, throws a file in your face?So was Christian. He was shocked to find himself being hit with a file.“Mama! Can’t you be a bit polite? When you come to someone’s place, speak nicely. Explain why you’re here, instead of throwing papers at people’s faces. If someone else had treated Mama like this, they would have been punched by now!” Christian expressed his frustration to his mother-in-law but still held back to prevent an explosion.“No need to be polite to someone like you! Who do you think you are? A tycoon who deserves respect?” Camila replied with a face that was irritating.For the middle-aged woman, only tycoons were worthy of respect. If people she deemed beneath her level, don’t expect any respect from her; if insults were needed, she would do it with perfection.Christian had had enough. He then said, “If I’m not respected because I’m worthless, why did Mama come here to see me? J
Camila, yearning to be touched by a man, had been using a magical wand-shaped toy every night, causing her sanity to slip away. She didn’t want to miss the chance to experience true pleasure, especially when she realized that Christian’s possession was larger than Declan’.“I agree!” Camila responded with a voice trembling, accompanied by her sighs.Christian smiled, then lowered his face to Camila’s neck, his hands touching her chest. While Camila was experiencing intense pleasure, Christian stopped his actions and distanced himself.“You said you agreed, right? So, tear up the divorce request letter first. After that, we’ll continue this game. I’ll make you fly high!” said Christian. He then walked to the bed and sat on the edge.Unable to contain her passion, Camila quickly grabbed the divorce request letter lying on the floor near the bedroom door. She turned around to face Christian, tearing the letter into four pieces and tossing it onto the floor.“Is this what you wanted? I’ve
