"Are you okay?" asked William. He brought a glass of hot drink for Irene, who was sitting on a chair on the roof of the building.The woman just sat silently, staring ahead with a blank expression.When she realized that William was sitting next to her, offering her a glass of hot drink, she began to come to her senses and smiled at William."Jean said he would take care of that man. You know, Jean also has a grudge against that man. So, don’t worry. Drink up."Irene lifted the glass of warm drink, sipped it slowly, and returned to her own thoughts.William understood that Irene was just wrestling with her thoughts.

After persuading the woman several times, William finally managed to convince her not to jump off the roof of the building.Now William was catching his breath, which was racing, because the woman had resisted.The woman, sitting in the chair where William had been sitting, sipped William’s coffee to calm herself down.William himself sat on the floor, leaning his back against the wall. He felt exhausted just from stopping one woman, who turned out to be strong enough to resist."If you’re that strong, why couldn’t you resist when that man harassed you?" asked William.The woman turned to William, looking annoyed."So you think I didn’t try to fight back? He threatened to fire me, of course I was scared. Finding a job with a good salary isn’t that easy these days. That jerk hired me because I’m pretty, I know that... but he got angry because I didn’t want him to touch me. So he tried all kinds of ways to trap me. I fought back, and just when I was about to succeed, his wife came. She

The Raynold family is one of the country’s conglomerate families. They own several large companies that are very influential in the country’s economic growth. They have so many businesses that people often say that Raynold has everything you need.William thought that was an exaggeration. But it turned out to be true.Because the detective that Arvin Raynold introduced to him was Leonard Raynold, or commonly called Leon.

In fact, tomorrow was the day the restaurant would move to a bigger place on the Arcelia River.Jay said it was the last day he would open the restaurant in that small place. So he invited William.

When the girl finally opened her eyes, she was surprised to see William so close to her.So close that the distance between them was only one centimeter.Liz’s heart was pounding wildly, waiting for William to kiss her.Time seemed to pass so slowly. A few seconds felt like minutes. Finally, their lips met.It was very soft, sweet, and—"William!"William quickly broke the kiss. Liz immediately turned to the person who had just called William. Liz was very upset because their kiss only lasted two seconds, and she hadn’t even had time to enjoy it.William frowned when he saw who it was."William! You’re here, we need to talk," said Trent, the person who had just interrupted William and Liz’s moment that morning, when even the sun was still shyly peeking out."What do I have to talk to you about? I don’t feel like I have anything to do with you!" said William.Trent clicked his tongue in annoyance, then said, "After destroying my family, now you feel like you have no problem with me? Of

I don’t care whether you believe me or not, but I’m telling you the truth," said William, before stepping into the elevator that had opened.Carmen remained silent, lost in her own internal debate. She felt very emotional, but she also knew she was no one to William now. In fact, she was the one who had decided to distance herself from William, ending their relationship so abruptly.But now she was approaching William. It didn’t matter whether her cousin liked William or not. She didn’t even really care if William liked Liz or not.
