Before the commotion, there were very few visitors in the cafe. After they made a fuss, the remaining visitors immediately fled. The cafe maid stared intently at their group — to be precise, at Tom, who had been causing trouble. The maid recognized Lilia's figure, so she automatically sided with the model's friend. Plus, she saw for herself that it was Tom who started the trouble on purpose. The servant approached them asking Lilia, "Miss, are you okay?" She didn't even glance at Tom who was…

While Lilia was talking to Rachel, the cafe door opened. A male figure walked in. The man was wearing a plaid shirt and casual looking jeans. His brown hair was neatly combed back, giving him the impression of a neat and tidy man. The black edged glasses he wore reinforced that impression. The man stood for a moment near the door looking around. Finally, the man's gaze fell on Vivi who was sitting alone. He took out his cell phone and compared the woman to the photo he got from Vivi's co-worker. After…

Half an hour later, Merry got out of the taxi feeling nervous. She stared at Chris's European car parked in front of her apartment. Merry slowly approached the car and tapped on the window. In the car, Chris opened his eyes when he heard a knock. The man turned and saw Merry's face peering into the car. For a moment, Chris felt the satisfaction that he could see Merry again. 'What the hell am I thinking?!' Chris hurriedly wiped off the ridiculous feeling of satisfaction. He frowned and lowered the…

Lilia was touched by Jean's words. Her black eyes glowed with joy. She inched closer to the man, closing the distance between them. Lilia reached out and held Jean's cheeks. She leaned over as she slowly closed her eyes. Just before their lips touched— Ting-tong. The sound of the bell from the front door brought Lilia's movements to a halt. She shot an annoyed gaze at the source of the voice. This was the third time she'd been interrupted when she was about to kiss Jean! Did Tom ring the bell just…

As Chris exited the main house, he ran into Paul and Sara outside the gate. The man acted as if he didn't see them. Chris walked over to his car, took off his jacket, then opened the door and threw the jacket into the passenger seat. Paul, who was standing not far away, turned angry when he saw Chris blatantly ignoring him. He galloped over to Chris when the man was entering his car. "Chris! Wait a minute!" Paul shouted loudly. Chris glanced at Paul, and found the man's face was filled with anger.…

The main house of the Hartanto family was located on the outskirts of Surabaya, far from the bustle of the metropolitan city. The head of the Hartanto Family, Chris and Sara's grandfather, moved back into his childhood house after the death of his wife ten years ago. However, the head of the family was dying in his bed now. The old man spent most of his time sleeping, but even if he woke up, he never said a word about the distribution of the family's wealth. That was how the feud between his two sons…

Ryan caught the joke in Lilia's voice. The young man supported his chin with one hand, "Since you say so, I will tell you my guess." Ryan said, secretly smiling. "Oh?" Lilia raised an eyebrow. She didn't miss Ryan's gleaming eyes. "I'm sure the winner of the best musician award this year must be ..." Ryan deliberately stopped his sentence for a moment. "Must be...?" Lilia urged. "It can't be me!" Ryan announced confidently. Lilia and Ryan both laughed out loud at the ridiculous joke. Rina…

When the men forced Merry away from the dance floor, the woman thrashed around and screamed for help. But her scream couldn't beat the blaring music. Merry instantly regretted her decision to come here. The saying that said 'regrets always come last' was true. She regretted not listening to Clifford's warnings and insisted on going to the bar anyway. Merry prayed with all her heart that someone would appear and help her, but no one here cared about Merry's situation. The men dragged Merry into the…

Lilia sat on the bed and stretched her body. She felt much better and fresher than before. Lilia turned to her side, but it was already empty. She got out of bed and immediately went into the bathroom. This time she didn't dare to soak in the bath for long. When Lilia finished taking a shower and was about to leave the room, she remembered what Jean said the day they moved here. The man said he had prepared a special room to store Lilia's clothes. The wardrobe was connected to their bedroom. Lilia…

That affectionate call made Lilia's body freeze. She slowly turned her head and stared at Jean. The man who always looked handsome now looked tired. Jean's face was wrinkled and there were dark circles under his eyes, showing that he hadn't slept all night. "What happened to me?" Lilia asked, but her voice was hoarse and nasal. Her throat felt dry and rough as if she had swallowed sand. Jean poured a glass of warm water from the thermos that was on the table. Then he helped Lilia sit down before…
