Plak...
The hard slap landed perfectly on Bianca's cheek. The 25-year-old woman stared in disbelief at her father. Her eyes were glazed over and she couldn't speak.
"Inevitably, you have to marry Raymond tomorrow. I don't accept rejection, I don't want to be embarrassed because of your sister's actions!" snapped Bianca's father.
"But, Father, this is all Levi's fault, why should I bear it?" Bianca asked, her eyes red from crying.
"Father doesn't want to hear, prepare yourself for tomorrow!"
After saying that, Bianca's father immediately came out, slamming the door to Bianca's room. He didn't care what Bianca was feeling right now. Most importantly, he didn't want to be humiliated, his very high dignity must not be destroyed because of his ignorant daughter.
While Bianca just sat on the floor, her hands grabbed her knees while hiding her face there. Bianca burst into tears, what should she do now? Should Bianca accept this forced marriage?
No! Bianca looked up again, wiping her tears roughly. She did not accept this marriage. Bianca didn't know Raymond, and Bianca didn't want to spend her life with someone she didn't love.
In between her sobs, an idea flashed through her head, she got up immediately and headed towards her closet. Bianca took the bag that was on top of the closet, opened the cupboard, and took some clothes to put in her bag. She also brought all her savings, not forgetting some of the things she needed.
Bianca finished everything quickly, after which she moved to lock the door. Yes, Bianca was planning to run away tonight. It was enough for her who always sacrificed her feelings for the sake of her arrogant brother. Now is Bianca's time to rebel, find a life of her own, and achieve her freedom from the home that has always been hell for her.
Bianca walked to the balcony of her room and looked down. Bianca was a little nervous to see that the distance between the ground below and her room was very high.
Bianca tried to inhale and exhale slowly. Closing her eyes as she muttered to herself, convincing herself that she could do all of this.
She turned to get her bag again, picked it up, and started tying one by one the blankets she found in her closet. When she was done, she immediately tied it to the railing of her balcony. The rope from the blanket she used to go down.
Even though her body was shaking, she was afraid of falling, but Bianca managed to get down to the bottom. Bianca crept up to reach the gate. She felt a little anxious because many people were hanging around her yard.
The house is really busy today, it should be her brother who is married to Raymond. But it turns out that his sister was caught pregnant with another man and Raymond did not accept it. In the end, her father decided that Bianca should take her sister's place. But Bianca didn't want to, she heard on campus how Raymond's character was, he was a cruel and oppressive person.
Bianca's gaze shifted to the car that was about to get out. Bianca took another look at who was behind the wheel. After making sure that it wasn't her father's people, Bianca just ran and got into the car in a hurry.
Brak...
Bianca closed the door violently, staring intently at the person beside her. "Hurry up!" her orders.
"But, Miss." The person sitting in front of the steering wheel still looked surprised by Bianca's sudden arrival. But because Bianca pointed a pair of scissors at him, he finally didn't ask any further and immediately started the car.
The gatekeepers just let them go because they thought it was the people who took care of the Wedding Organizer for tomorrow.
Bianca occasionally glanced behind her, making sure she wasn't caught and followed. It was only after she was sure that she faced forward and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Miss," the driver called fearfully because Bianca had been pointing scissors at him all this time.
Bianca, who realized what she had done, quickly pulled the scissors, she winced slightly when she realized that her actions were a little brutal. But suddenly she pointed her scissors again at the man and glared at him.
"You, get off here. I need this car to escape." Bianca threatened as she brought the scissors to the stomach of the person beside her.
"Miss, don't do that. Okay...okay, I'm going down now." The man's body was shaking violently, cold sweat dripping down his forehead. Finally, he was forced to stop his car on the side of the road.
Bianca didn't waste it, seeing that the person who owned this car was already out, she immediately moved to the steering wheel. Bianca drove her car at high speed.
Who knows how long Bianca had been driving, until she didn't realize that it was getting dark. Bianca cursed when the car she was in ran out of fuel. She got out of the car, kicking her tires to vent her frustration.
But she got a little goosebump, where she was currently standing was a very desolate forest. The lighting here is also very dark, there is only moonlight accompanying Bianca on this day before dawn.
"How's this? It doesn't look like an area that is frequented by vehicles?" mumbled Bianca quietly.
During the silence of the night, Bianca shuddered when she heard a cry for help. Her head turned here and there, looking for people around her, but there was no one here.
"Help..."
The moaning grew louder, making Bianca even more curious. She finally walked a little towards the trees beside her, which she believed the voice to be coming from.
"Hello... is anyone here?" shouted Bianca as she looked around.
"Help..."
Bianca sharpened her hearing, she went deeper into the forest to find the source of the sound. Until her eyes widened, when she saw a man sitting leaning on a rock under the moonlight. Bianca immediately ran to the man.
"Sir... Sir, are you all right?" Bianca asked frantically, noticing that the man in front of her was bleeding profusely.
Bianca tried to grab the man's hand, she put it on her shoulder and tried to wake him up.
"Argh..."
It turned out that Bianca was not strong enough to support the man, and instead she fell, her body falling on the man in front of her.
"Sorry, I'm sorry, Sir." Bianca felt guilty that she had caused him pain because of her.
"Alexander." Suddenly the man in front of Bianca spoke quietly, trying to use his strength to make a sound.
"What did you say, Sir?" Bianca asked because she didn't hear what the man was saying.
"Alexander."
Bianca put her ear to the man's lips, finally, she could hear a name coming out of the man's mouth. But before Bianca asked further, the man coughed up blood. His breathing slowly weakened, and he closed his eyes in front of Bianca.
"Sir... Sir, wake up...."
Bianca panicked, she tried to shake the body of the man in front of her. But in vain, his body was limp lifeless.
Suddenly Bianca heard the sound of a car stopping, she immediately got up and intended to seek help. Bianca ran, her eyes sparkling at the sight of several people in front of her. But suddenly...
Dor...
Bianca's body just collapsed when her leg was shot, the smile of satisfaction after seeing that someone would help vanished. Her eyes dimmed, a glimpse before she passed out, she could see a person in front of her staring intently at her, holding a gun in his hand.

*** 5 hours before Bianca was shot***"Are you sure he's the one?" asked James who was currently watching the person sitting across his desk."Yes, I've looked into it. We must act immediately, he probably knows all about that person." Alexander answered him with full confidence."What do you think?" James turned to his side. Looking at his friend who was smoking a cigarette in his hand casually. His face looked calm, but James was sure, if inside Xavier's heart was turbulent, he would not immediately pounce on his prey."Then what's your plan, Alex?" Xavier asked calmly, but the look in his eyes was sharp as if they could make the person he was talking to easily split open.
The deep sorrow is not only felt by James's family. Xavier himself felt very lost because of the death of his best friend. The man just silently watched the funeral process that was so solemn.Jaccob walked closer to his son. He patted his son on the shoulder, signaling that he was sorry for this. Meanwhile, Maria could not help but hug her first child. The woman who was aged still looked beautiful. Her eyes were puffy from crying. Maria also feels lost, especially since Maria has known James since Xavier was in Junior High School. James is one of Xavier's best friends who is always there for Xavier."Don't be sad, take care of yourself. Mommy is going home now," said Maria."Thanks, Mom." Those were the only words that came out of Xavier's mouth. He even ignored it when his parents left from there.One by one the people who were there dispersed. Only James' nuclear family was left there. Xavier walked closer, towards a middle-aged woman who was probably
"Dad," said Xavier as soon as he reached the living room. He looked here and there, looking for his mother. "Where's Mom?" Xavier asked."Mommy is at home. Raylin just got home," answered Jacob.Xavier nodded his head. He sat in front of his father, waiting for what his father would say."Be honest with Dad, Xavier. Did you deal with Constantin?" Jacob asked, looking intently at his son."He invaded my territory first, Dad," Xavier replied casually."Did James' death have anything to do with this?" Jacob asked again.Xavier didn't answer, but from the look in Jacob's eyes, he was sure that his guess was right. This made Jacob sigh softly, his body leaning back against the sofa."Supposedly, you just need to carry on Daddy's efforts, why do you have to deal with such a cursed thing? Daddy's sure, if Mommy finds out about this she'll be mad at you." Jacob gave his son understanding."Never mind, Dad. You don't have to interfere,
Dim lights with loud music greeted him as he entered. Xavier looked around for a familiar figure. Suddenly Noah approached and whispered something to him, Noah's hand reached out to point at the very corner of this bar room.Xavier nodded, he walked through the sea of people who were engrossed in dancing. Lots of wild stares from the comfort women, but Xavier ignored them.One of the women suddenly blocked his way, posing seductively while stroking Xavier's sensual chest. "Sir, I can accompany you tonight."But Xavier just chuckled, he grabbed the woman's hand and pushed her away. Xavier looked indifferent even though the woman was cursing at him."Are you having fun?" Xavier asked when he reached a table. There was a man in front of him who was holding a woman."Xavier," the man said cheerfully, he immediately stood up, letting the woman in his lap topple over.Xavier smiled, he immediately hugged his best friend's body. "Why didn't you c
It was still early, but the noise disturbed Xavier's sleep. Reluctantly he had to open his eyes, got up, and walked to the bathroom to wash his face.When he opened the door, a scream immediately filled his ears. A beautiful woman with black eyes, very elegant style immediately hugged him. Xavier could only surrender when his younger sister started spoiling him."You disturbed my sleep, Raylin," Xavier complained."Oh come on. We haven't seen each other for 6 months, but you're still annoying. I've been waiting for you at the door since earlier," said Raylin sulkily."You can go straight to the room, why do you have to be at the door?" Xavier asked with furrowed brows.Meanwhile, Raylin chuckled lazily, her hands on her hips, slightly sneering in front of Xavier. "You once scolded me for entering a room without permission," Raylin said.Xavier who heard that chuckled, he ruffled his sister's hair. "Where are mom and dad?" he asked."I
"Why are you silent, please hurry," Raylin shouted to the guard at the door.The guards looked confused. They couldn't possibly help the woman because she was a prisoner of their master. But seeing the seriousness of Raylin who was angry, finally, they were forced to help the woman.Raylin walked with brisk steps, followed by a guard who carried Bianca's body. Raylin ordered the guard into the guest room and put Bianca's body on the bed. After that Raylin called the doctor to come here.Meanwhile, one of the guards in front of the warehouse immediately went to Xavier to give a report. Of course, this made Xavier very angry, he immediately left his friends in the study to catch up with his sister.***"Who is th
"Xavier," Raylin choked.The atmosphere became tense, behind Xavier, Noah and Scoot had just arrived. Xavier was still staring at his brother without blinking as if his eyes were capable of skinning his sister."Hi, Xavier, how are you?" William broke the mood, he had a smile on his lips. He who does not know the problem does not understand the situation that is happening in front of him."I'm fine, you can go home, William." Xavier didn't even look at William.Noah who was behind tried to beckon William. Making William finally say goodbye to them and leave from there."Don't be rash, Xavier. She's your brother," Scoot warned.But Xavier didn't seem to care, he grabbed Raylin's hand roughly to enter the room."Xavier," Raylin called, complaining."You know who she is?" asked Xavier looking closely at his sister, he couldn't bear to yell at his only sister.While Raylin, who was asked, just silently shook her head.
"Is she trying to escape?" Scoot asked, looking at a woman in front of him."I guess so," Noah chimed in.Xavier was still staring intently at Bianca. Seeing the traces of blood dripping on the floor, Xavier was sure that the woman had forcibly pulled out the IV tube.Xavier approached Bianca, his foot kicked Bianca's body. But she didn't respond at all."She can't be awake, you idiot. She's passed out." Scoot sneered at Xavier, he immediately moved to pick up Bianca's body and carried her back to the guest room.Xavier who saw that snorted, even though he wanted to drag the woman away. Really troublesome. Finally, he walks after Scoot, while Noah calls Tia to clean the bloody floor.Scoot put Bianca's body on the bed, he even covered her. Scoot's attitude was too much for a prisoner."She's actually pretty." Scoot mumbled at Bianca's face. As if stunned by the beauty of the sleeping Bianca.It turns out that Xavier heard it. H
