CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED SEVEN:

The door slammed open, causing its entire frame to shake. Sharon was startled although she already anticipated this to happen after forwarding the words of the security to him.
‘Someone was fighting inside an elevator. A woman and two men.’
At first, she was confused who they were and was hesitating to tell him as she thought that it was a trivial matter and she can deal it herself but seeing the actual footage and after the security personnel told her that it was the woman who just visited the boss, her hesitation dispersed into bubbles, and she passed the words to the still down Tyler.
“Where is she?” Tyler immediately asked his secretary while taking big steps towards the elevator. Sharon was ahead of him to press the button of the elevator.
“She’s at the security’s room together with
==CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED EIGHT==“I’m sorry…” Her voice was low and small, if the room is not silent as a graveyard, he will fail to catch her words.I’m sorry? She’s sorry? For what?If he remembers correctly, he is the one who needs to say sorry. He was nervous about what she wants to say. Nevertheless, he still asked what she’s sorry for. Althea was about to answer him when the door slid open then vomited the security.“Sir, I already sent them home and….” Noticing the strange atmosphere between the two he shut his mouth up. They were looking at him and when he saw the dissatisfied frown on his boss’s face, he knew he interrupted something. He stepped back. “Uh, uhm. I am sorry about that. I’ll go back- ““
==CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED NINE==“I’ll be back later.” Althea tip-toed to kiss him on the cheeks.Tyler pouted after the short contact and took her waist. “You’re leaving me and Kai?”Seeing his sorry face, she can’t help but laugh. She pinched his nose tightly that it reddens. “Stupid. I’ll be back, I’ll just meet my friend.”Tyler ow-ed when she pinched the tip of his nose but tried nothing to escape from her claws. His brows furrowed instead. “That friend of yours… Why is that you never tell me her name.”Althea paused and watched his frowning face.The friend she’s referring is Charlotte, obviously. Charlotte is back from her business trip and contacted her last night, saying that she wants to spend time with her a
==CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED TEN==Her phone arrived late in the evening with a letter in a pink and scented paper. It was weird but fine until she opened the letter. The contents were printed, and the first words were in bold and capitalize, so after opening it, your eyes will automatically drift there.DEAR MY LOVE,Althea just opened the letter for a second before closing it again, sensing her back getting cold, she turned and sure enough, she saw his cold green orbs staring at her. His eyes questioning.Althea laughed bitterly inside her and mouthed to him that it was from a friend. He suspiciously looked at her before turning away with Kai in his arms, sleeping. He walked towards the stairs to bring the slumbering boy in his room. When Tyler finally left her line of sight, she sighed and scowl at the letter while silently cursing Charlotte in her heart.That s
==CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED ELEVEN==She sat down again and let a minute of silence surround them. She can hear the distant laughter of other people and their chatters. There were also the sounds of the fluttering birds and the gentle swaying of the leaves from the wind.She looked up at the sky, trying to organize her thoughts. It was hard, she doesn’t know what to tell them first. These few months were event full, there are many things that happened that she can’t understand them at all. Still, there was a need to tell them about. She wants to complain, she wants to ask for advice, and she wants to share her excitement to them.Too bad, they’re gone.“Hey, mom and dad. I… I honestly have no idea what to say.” She laughed at her honest words. The winds picked the flowers they put in a vase in between the two tombstones. It seems like they we
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!==CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED TWELVE==“Sir, the madam’s phone has been ringing for a while now.”Their head frowned after he presented Althea’s phone. He was standing upright and he just glanced at the phone briefly. As he said, it was ringing. Someone was calling her phone.The madam apparently had left her phone behind. Not strange since she’s just accompanying the young master in the comfort room. And she stated that she’ll be using it herself.The leader took the phone from his hand to read the caller’s ID. It was the son of their boss, not surprising.The phone continued to vibrate without any signs of stopping soon. He has to answer it himself.He turned to look at the public toilet where the two went and answered the phone. His voice,
==CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED THIRTEEN==The outside was cold, there were pedestrians that were hurrying towards their destinations and rubbing their hands together at the same time, trying to produce heat through friction, and preventing their hands from freezing.Winter is near.The cold wind occasionally swept past through the people, making them shiver, their feet doubled their effort to walk, carefully to not stumble on the ground and hit their faces on the paved street, then instead of going home, they will be sending themselves to the hospital next to the busy street.Inside the hospital, Sharon was pacing back and forth in front of a closed door. It was numbered 203; it was a private hospital room. The secretary was a little bit pale, and a whole day had yet to pass, but her face was painted with a terrible exhaustion.As she was anxiously walking in circles and d
==CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED FOURTEEN==The went out of the hospital the very same day he went in; he can’t lay on the comfortable mattress of the hospital bed while Althea and Kai are in an unknown situation. So, despite the strong refusal of his parents, the secretary, and his doctor, he stubbornly said that he has to go. He must go and find them himself. They were all left helpless and were left to watch him stand, change clothes, and exited the hospital.Victoria and Joseph exchanged glances before trotting behind their son who went out of the hospital fast as how fast he went in.As what his parents said, they immediately mobilized their troops to search the area where the two went missing. Unfortunately, the surveillance cameras nearby were broken- deliberately. The damages of the cameras showed that they were forcefully yanked, and who did that? They also don’t know; the security f
==CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED FIFTEEN==A suffocating silence engulfed Althea the moment she fluttered her eyes open. There was no noise. It wasn't an exaggeration to say you can almost hear your blood rushing in your veins.Her mind is still hazy and muddled- like it was submerged in water for a long time, turning sluggish.She moved- no, to be precise- she tried to move.It was stopped with the rough, and tight binding on her body; the waist, her hands, and both feet. Startled, the woman looked down and casted her blue eyes to it-It was a rope.Seeing the rope that was tied on her- rendering her immobile- countless memories came rushing in her mind.She gasps, realizing that she was kidnapped. Althea hastily swept her eyes on the room and took everything in as much as she could- from big details down to the sm
