But Lunatte didn’t mind. She looked at Jack and spoke a few words. “I need to go. It’s time to go home,” said Lunatte.
“Ah, well. Nice talking to you,” said Jack.
Lunatte nodded her head. She didn’t care about these two men and went straight backstage to change her clothes. But when she came out of the backstage, her arm nudged someone.
Bump!
Lunatte turned her body. Apparently, the person she bumped into was the man earlier.
“Sorry,” said Lunatte briefly. She was about to leave, but her hand was held by the man. Lunatte felt uncomfortable, of course. She tried to get rid of Russell’s grip on her wrist. Strong enough to be hard enough to let go.
‘What is with this guy?!’ Lunatte was very annoyed.
Russell and Lunatte stared at each other for a long time. ‘Her. Yes! No more mistakes! She is the woman I slept with four years ago! Why is she here? Why dress up ugly like this?’ No wonder Russel felt familiar. This woman’s voice, her eyes, the shape of her lips; Russell is very familiar.
Four years ago, when Russel ordered someone to bring this woman to the villa as a form of accountability. But he hasn’t seen this woman since four years ago. He never came to the villa. He just let this woman live there and get regular reports if this woman is extravagant. Spree with the money he gave, especially for her. This woman doesn’t seem to matter either and never even tried to contact him once.
Now, seeing her here must have been a huge shock to Russell.
‘She must have come here on purpose knowing I would be here. She intends to seduce me to win my heart,’ he thought.
“What are you doing here?” Russell asked in an icy voice.
Contrary to what Lunatte thought. “Can you let go of my hand?” asked Lunatte with that irritated expression.
Russell doesn’t care. His grip on Lunatte’s hand strengthened even more. “What are you doing here? And what are you doing in disguise?” Russell asked again. He wanted an honest explanation.
But because Lunatte was so annoyed. And Lunatte thought that this man was lacking. So, Lunatte quickly issued her moves. She looked right at Russel’s crotch, then kicked him so hard that Russel, who was not ready for the attack, released his holding.
Lunatte glanced at Russel, who was in pain, and without thinking, ran fast and ran away from there.
“You! Hey!”
Russell swore. “Shit!” He felt throbbing now from being kicked by the woman. Jack came up to him not long from there. He was confused because earlier, Russel was in a hurry to go backstage. Now he saw Russel with an annoyed face and was on the phone with someone.
“Russell, what happened? You look sick,” he asked.
But Russell ignored Jack’s question. The call is connected.
“Tomorrow afternoon. I will come there. Make sure the woman is in her place!” he said to the point with a firm tone.

Mia deliberately hired a photographer to take pictures at this magnificent villa. Showing off all the luxury she gets to then show off to all of her social media. Everyone will definitely praise her! Mia was so happy to get all that attention and compliments from strangers. Mia is always showing off her wealth. Act as if she is the queen who has everything. Mia has quite a number of followers on social media.
Mia poses against the backdrop of that luxury. Until she looked confused at the people passing by, looking very busy. The situation at the Villa is very noisy now. Everyone seemed to be in a hurry to clean up the Villa. Curious, Mia asked the passing butler.
“What is it? Why are you so busy all of a sudden?” she asked.
“Lady, Mr. Russel will be here to see you.”
Mia’s body was instantly petrified at that moment. Her eyes widened, her hands trembled slightly.
“W-what? H-he’s coming to see me?” she repeated.
“Yes, Lady.”
‘O-ouch! How about this? He can’t see my face! Or he’ll find out I’m not actually the woman he slept with in that hotel room four years ago! I have to hide! But for what reason now?’ Mia felt a great panic. She didn’t want to lose all this wealth!
To be continued…
Russel stared at the luxurious villa in front of him. He got out of the car and was immediately greeted by the butler. “Mr. Russell, let me bring your coat.” “Hmm.” Russel didn’t say much. He handed over the black coat he was wearing and went inside. All the workers who were there seemed to line up to welcome him with their faces bowed down, full of politeness. “Where is she? Did she leave last night?” Russell asked the butler. “Lady is in her room, sir. And last night, Lady didn’t go anywhere. She enjoyed her evening with a sumptuous dinner.” Russell frowned. Did the woman leave quietly until her departure was unknown? Russell is getting curious. “Did she know I’m coming?” asked Russell again. The butler nodded his head. “Yes, sir.” “Tell her I come already. Bring her to me,” said Russell to the butler. “Yes, sir.” The butler immediately headed to the Lady’s room to deliver the message. “Where is Lady Mia?” asked the butler to the maid, who was preparing Mia’s needs. “Lady
“Ah, finally!” Lunatte’s face beamed. She has gone through the interview stage and has just received news that he has been accepted to work as a clerk in a large company —Houston's Group—Tomorrow Lunatte can start working. She was so happy because after so long. Finally, she was accepted to work! Lunatte doesn’t have to worry about money anymore. The salary offered suffices to finance her monthly living.“I will give my best!” said Lunatte excitedly as she raised her fist in the air.***Lunatte looked at the watch in her hand. “Ah, no! Oh, Lord! It’s already this time! I’ll be late!” Lunatte grumbled on the way. Her neat appearance became a mess because of running in a hurry.“Excuse me. I want to pass. I’m too late. Please, excuse me.” Lunatte cut through the sea of people at this train station with her panicked expression. It’s her first time working, and she’s late!‘Lunatte! Very stupid! Why do you have to wake up so late!’Finally, after running like crazy, Lunatte arrived!“Ha
For the umpteenth time in a day, Lunatte has bad luck. The manager confronted her for the second time.“Sir, could you excuse me, please?” Lunatte asked kindly. But the manager completely ignored her request. It actually surprised Lunatte when the manager grabbed her arm, then pulled her into an empty room. Lunatte was very panicked.“Sir, let me go! What are you doing?!” Lunatte roared with anger.“Listen, Lunatte. This is the threat I will give you one last time,” said the manager in a low tone. He is angry. It’s clear. Lunatte knows that. Lunatte was still trying to calm down. If she looks panicked, then the manager will be happy and like to frighten her even more.“Come to the hotel with me tonight or I’ll fire you!” he threatened.‘This pervert hasn’t given up yet! Heh! Just watch! Am I afraid of that threat?! I will make a lesson to deter him!’Lunatte racked her brains. First, she had to get out of this very disadvantageous situation.“Okay. I’m going to the hotel with you,” sh
BLAM! Lunatte closed the toilet door tightly. She needed rest to relieve her anger, but she needed someone to vent her grievances. So, Lunatte contacted her best friend, Grace. *** Grace smiled, looking at the five children of her friends who were playing. There are those who read books, solve puzzles, and even play chess and other games that require brain concentration. Grace shook her head. ‘What they play really shows as if they are adults already. Even though they are only three years old.’ Grace frowned when her cell phone rang. Apparently, Lunatte had called her. “Wait a minute, your mommy is calling me. You play together. Aunty Grace will talk to her.” The five babies stared at each other. Their gazes seemed connected to each other so that they understood each other’s thoughts. Despite being only three years old, Lunatte’s five baby daughters are geniuses! They are very genius in their respective fields and like to work together on a project that they like. They even ofte
Lunatte’s heartbeat was pounding pretty fast. “Let’s hope it’s true that was the wife number of that lecherous manager. It would be so much fun to see him get scolded!” Lunatte grinned a little.But something caught her attention. The door is open. Lunatte smiled. She thought that the wife of the manager had arrived and they were having an argument right now in there. The steps are getting faster. She immediately went inside without hesitation. But what happened next really shocked her!“What’s this? What happened?!” Lunatte stepped back. Her pupils constricted. She was speechless when she saw something terrible in this room. There is blood everywhere. Lunatte continued to back away from the defenseless body of the manager with blood all over his body. Until her foot accidentally stepped on something. Lunatte crouched down to pick it up. It’s a fruit knife.Lunatte ventured to get closer to the manager’s helplessly lying body.“Is he dead?” Lunatte crouched down to check for a pulse i
Lunatte still couldn’t believe what the man in front of her said. She shook her head.“No. What are you talking about? I don’t understand,” said Lunatte, pretending not to understand. This only irritated Russell even more.“Don’t feign ignorance. I told you to end your charade because I already know everything!” said Russell. His bushy, neat eyebrows are almost knit together. His eyes looked very sharp, like an eagle’s gaze. The deep structure of his cheeks bones became more obvious as his jaw tightened. His angry expression only made the man in front of Lunatte even more enchanting. But this is not the time to be stunned.Once again, Lunatte watched Russel’s face. Even her hands unconsciously groped Russel’s face. Russel was silent because he knew Lunatte was giving her judgment. At first, he thought that by doing that, Lunatte would say yes about the sex they had 4 years ago at the hotel. In fact, he must be disappointed and his annoyance increases.A flash memory about that night f
Alex was silent for a moment when Lunatte said that. He thought back to what Russell had said to him that night. Flashback... “This woman is a suspect in the murder,” Russel said while showing Alex Lunatte’s portrait. Alex looked at the portrait carefully. “I want you to set her free,” Russell continued. Alex frowned. There were lots of questions that came to his mind when he saw Russel this time. “She is an employee in my company.” Again Russell tried to explain. Even though Alex didn’t say anything, Russell knew what was on Alex’s mind, and that, of course, really bothered him. “I see, alright. I will do that. I’m going back to my apartment and going straight into the case. This seems quite complicated. We don’t know anything yet about how this could have happened.” Russell nodded. “The manager. He once threatened Lunatte. I once eavesdropped on their conversation. And that woman also said it to me herself.” This time, Alex really couldn’t hold back his snort. “Eavesdropping?
“Her name is Mrs. Barnes. From the information in this newspaper, it was written that she was at the scene of the murder along with Mommy and the manager who had died. More precisely at the Raffles Hotel with room number 222. And she was the one who slandered Mommy so that Mommy was made a suspect at that time by the police. She is the main target that we will investigate,“ said Adeline. The four sisters nodded their heads in understanding of what Adeline said. “Because if the five of us went to spy on that woman. Looking for data that will solve Mommy’s case, then Mommy and Grandma will be suspicious because we are not all at home. Therefore, only some of us will go, and the rest will help at home. Also to trick mommy and grandma,” explained Adeline. Because she is the eldest sister. More precisely, the firstborn among the four other siblings, she was appointed as the leader by her other siblings. And Adeline’s leadership is very great! Everyone was very respectful of Adeline’s orde
