On the other hand, Renata stood on the balcony of her room. She was now in Indonesia, and it was raining heavily. It was late at night, and the air was getting stifling. She stood in her thin sleeping pajamas. Renata didn't care how much the cold pain pierced her bones. She stared at the raindrops falling on the ground.This was the amount of regret in her heart, which was increasingly piercing into her chest. Just as much as the raindrops were her longing for the man who had completely filled her heart,"I was wrong," Renata murmured through her tears. I was wrong for thinking that with you I was lonely and restless. In reality, being away from you is more agonising and painful. Hikz..."Renata bowed her head and sobbed even more."It's very painful here, Bas." Renata beat her chest, which felt so painful. "What should I do? How should I live my suffocating life?"Once again, she sobbed there.***"What is this?" raged Julian, who got an incoming message on his cell phone. He also lo
"Julian is your real father, Bastian."DegNot only Bastian was shocked, but Julian was also very surprised. He turned to Maria, who was behind him."What did you say, Maria?""Yes. Bastian is our son, Julian. Our biological son."What was this reality?Bastian's body lurches backward, his eyes red with tears and shock."Your lies will not save this man," Bastian says. "Go away; I will not harm you, Lady Maria.""I speak the truth, Bastian."Maria sobbed as she wiped away her tears."30 years ago, I was in college. My parents set me up with Julian, but I rejected him because I was in love with another man. And because of that rejection, Julian held me captive and raped me," Maria sobbed. "And because of the rape, I got pregnant. My parents were very embarrassed to find out I was pregnant. I didn't dare tell them who the biological father of the child was. Because I didn't want to marry Julian," Maria sobs. "Then I was abandoned, and
Lucas and Vincent cleared out all of Julian's men. There was no one left except Tristan, who had disappeared a long time ago. Tristan fled after seeing the news of Clairy's death. Tristan is very familiar with Bastian, and he is aware that Clairy didn't commit suicide; rather, Bastian killed him. Tristan is indeed cruel in killing someone. But Bastian is a cold-blooded killer who never even leaves a trace of murder there.***Bastian was currently sitting in a room in his mansion. He was holding Renata's rabbit hat. His heart was broken, and he felt fragile at the moment."Your choice to stay away from me was the right choice, Rena. My life is so messed up; there is no future with me," Bastian murmured."Can I cry just this once?" murmured Bastian as tears rolled down his cheeks. Unable to bear all the pain himself, Bastian now looked very fragile. He cried while hugging Renata's furry rabbit hat.'I'm a bad man; am I really a monster for destroying my own p
A few days passed. Renata and her family had just returned from Britain to fulfil the invitation of her sisters Regan and Angela, who made them welcome back.Renata landed her butt on the sofa. She was grateful that her pregnancy did not make her distressed to the point of nausea and vomiting like her sister-in-law had experienced in the past. It's just that Renata's appetite is decreasing; she only wants to eat spicy things. Even her favourite foods, sweets, were becoming unappetizing now."Cape?" asked Jasmine, who took a seat next to Renata.Jasmine is Renata's distant cousin who came from Boston. Jasmine is married and is currently settling down in Indonesia after her divorce."Not bad.""You guys are relaxing here," said Calvin."Why?" asked Renata."Do you want to come with me and Nichol?" asked Calvin."Where to?" asked Jasmine."To find something to eat, I'm tired of staying at home; let's go," said Calvin."Okay. Let me change my clothes first," said Renata."Me too."Renata
"Bastian, we will support you and obey all your orders. But what you have cannot fulfil everything," Billy explained."Shall we end this partnership?""You can't do that, Bastian. We've helped you take care of all of Julian's men. And we need support. With your current position, we could destroy you," Billy said threateningly. Bastian knew that the old man in front of him was greedy and trying to blackmail him."Then I want another offer," Bastian said."What's that?""Let me lead the Scorpio clan," Bastian said, and Billy's expression turned instantly tense."No way.""Then let's cancel our agreement. After all, I've already paid you a large sum," Bastian said.Billy and his men fell into a tense silence."What do you think?" asked Bastian."Well, I agree to make you our chief. But with your current situation, you certainly don't qualify as the leader of the Scorpio gang. You should know that our group is spread across every country centred in Switzerland.""You guys take it easy. I
3 years later...Bastian had just come out of his mansion. His mansion had been remodelled in several parts and had a large building at the back of the mansion. It was the training ground for his men.In addition to being the managing director of the Jook Group Company, Bastian has also developed his clinic, which is now a large hospital in the city of Bern, Switzerland. Bastian is the head of the mafia and a group called the Black Cats. This mafia gang is still a secret; not many people know about it because Bastian does not like to appear in public.Bastian is known as the sole heir of the Jook Group Company. In addition, Bastian has also cleared out Julian's illegal businesses, including Julian's casino royale. No matter how many enemies attacked, because now he is superior.Bastian moved Jacob's wife and child out of the country while still paying for their living expenses. Meanwhile, Bastian himself now lives with Maria, Lukas, Vincent, and Aline, whom Bastian alrea
The doctor exited the operating room by removing the medical gloves on both hands and throwing them into the trash can outside the operating room. Afterwards, he took off his mask and breathed in the fresh air."Waahhh, you're crazy, Doctor Renata," said someone nudging her arm."Tsk, what, Nichol?" Renata grumbled in annoyance."Wow, when did you become so composed?" This is our first surgery, and you seem to be experienced," Nichol said."Tsk, don't underestimate me," said Renata."At this rate, you could really be transferred as a relief doctor to Switzerland," said Nichol."That is indeed my wish.""What a love warrior!" Nichol chuckled."I'm sleepy and want to sleep. You tell the patient's family. Bye.""Ehh, the dog, habit. You kid!""Hey, I'm a single mom, not a kid," Renata replied as she ran away, a habit that would never change.***Renata stood on the roof of the hospital, feeling happy. Renata had just finished
"Good afternoon."The three stood up from their positions and looked at Bastian, who was now standing at the front near the white screen.DegBastian's gaze met the gaze of a woman who was none other than Renata. Three years passed, and they were reunited under unexpected circumstances."Khem..." Bastian cleared his throat while looking away, as did Renata, who also looked away."Have a seat," said Bastian's assistant.They returned to the seats they had previously occupied. Bastian also occupied the chair in front of him, as did his assistant."So you're the help sent from the London hospital?" asked Bastian."That's right," Nichol replied."Please introduce your names and what specialties?" asked Bastian, looking at the three of them, and once again his sharp gaze met Renata's gaze. Actually, Renata had not turned her gaze away from Bastian, who was reading the paper in front of her."My name is Nicholas Prasaja Andromeda. I specialise in heart surgery," said Nichol."Me, Leonardo A
