Marco remained fixed on his wife's beautiful face as she tied his tie, even though his mood was sour. Somehow, it only made her face look even funnier."Is this the expression my husband wears when he's about to work?" Marco said, causing Letta to glance at him briefly before refocusing on the tie in front of her."That's because my husband is very stubborn and doesn't want to listen to advice from his wife," Letta replied, still in her cold tone, making Marco smile."Come on, this is really important, so I have to get to the office right away," Marco said again."So, you prioritize that important matter over your current condition. We just arrived yesterday, and you're going straight to the office," Letta said, looking at her husband with an incredulous expression."I promise I'll only deal with that important matter and then come straight home," Marco said, making Letta fold her arms, looking at her husband with raised eyebrows."I no longer believe in your quick promises," Letta sa
With bandages still wrapped around his body, Marco truly went to check what chaos Pedro actually meant."So, explain everything," Marco said, now seated in his large chair, prompting Pedro to hurry. After that, Pedro showed the flat screen in front of him to Marco."We seem to have underestimated Jacob," Pedro said, making Marco furrow his brow after seeing the numbers and graphs on the screen. "He took all our investors in Chicago; that fatigue in my gut was a sign," Marco clenched his jaw."How could we not know anything about something this crucial?" Marco asked, making Pedro only lower his head."They really kept quiet and made decisions unilaterally," Pedro said, causing Marco to slam the table in front of him."This project is already 50% complete. How could they withdraw from it? What did that scoundrel offer?" Marco asked, and Pedro then showed him the files Marco needed to examine. After that, Marco took a long breath and looked at Pedro."What about Daddy? Does he know?" Mar
As instructed by Marco, Pedro truly took care of Marco's departure to meet the irresponsible investors in his collaborative project. Only a few investors remained, and Marco promised to regain their trust and teach them a lesson."Are you leaving tonight?" Letta asked, seeing Marco just finished a phone call. Marco turned around to look at Letta, who had been quieter since earlier. Marco also understood his wife's feelings. Even though Letta gave him permission, Marco knew that Letta must feel sad to see him go."Pedro has arranged everything, so I need to finish it quickly so I can come back and be with you again," Marco said, gently stroking the top of his wife's head and giving her a warm kiss on the forehead."When you arrive at your destination, don't forget to pay attention to your body. Look, these bandages are still perfectly attached to you. Don't forget to eat well and take your vitamins. Don't drink too much alcohol, and don't work all night. At least, you need to sleep. Yo
Letta sighed as she felt the touch bestowed by her husband, who didn't miss a single inch of her skin. Especially when the warm breath on her neck made Letta only able to grip Marco's hair, kissing his cheek. Marco, in turn, responded to his wife's delicate hand with a gentle suck on her neck, leaving a reddish trace on Letta's fair skin. Eventually, the kiss descended to her shoulders and the sensitive sides of Letta, causing Marco to momentarily gaze into his wife's eyes, which looked at him with a melancholic expression. The blush on both her cheeks added to Letta's beauty, seemingly making it difficult for Marco to restrain himself."You look beautiful," Marco whispered, making Letta smile while caressing her husband's firm jaw."And this beauty is yours," Letta said, causing Marco to grasp her hand. After that, Marco kissed her gently before continuing what he intended to do. Marco once again kissed every inch of Letta's body, descending to her sensitive sides, devouring them wit
Marco then looked at Letta, who stood in front of their large house terrace, before waving his hand again."I'll be back quickly," Marco said, making Letta nod, even though she said she was okay being left by Marco. But still, Marco could see a trace of sadness in Letta's face, with eyes that seemed teary, which she tried her best to hold back. This made Marco not want to ruin Letta's efforts in vain when saying goodbye.Marco immediately instructed Pedro to speed up his car to handle all the issues that had arisen in their big project in Chicago, while Letta could only exhale a long breath as she watched her husband's black car drive further away through the tall gates of their home.Letta then looked towards the guards assigned to watch over her, maybe around 20 or more, who were now guarding around their house. Not to mention the assigned servants also increased, making Letta truly feel that her husband was concerned about her, but couldn't cancel his departure because of his duty
Marco slammed his desk hard when none of the tasks he was supposed to target were completed, only ending up in a mess. Especially now that Pedro hadn't managed to locate Jacob's whereabouts."So, what progress have we made?" Marco asked coldly, looking at his four subordinates directly managing the affairs in Chicago. Currently, Marco was in his large mansion that he had previously shared with Letta."Sorry, Sir. Currently, all investors have even withdrawn all the funds they invested in our project, and we also failed to attract other investors," one subordinate said, now looking at Marco with a fearful gaze."So, they underestimate a Jovanka? What do they think? Do they think this project is just a casual project that will only end up as an old building?" Marco asked, making them bow their heads even deeper. Marco then turned his gaze directly to Pedro."Jacob's whereabouts still haven't been traced?" Marco asked, making Pedro shake his head."Not yet, but I got information that Jac
Marco roughly wiped his face as he sat in the jet headed to Shanghai, China. Unaware of the complexity that awaited him—chaos initiated by Jacob impacting his other businesses. Similarly, Edward faced his own challenges, but Marco's thoughts halted as Pedro approached."Sir," Pedro spoke, finally capturing Marco's attention."It's been over two days since Sir left Madam, yet Sir hasn't contacted her," Pedro reminded Marco. Marco cursed under his breath, massaging his temples."Yeah, I almost forgot to check in with my wife. She must be worried. Hand me my phone," Marco said, prompting Pedro to nod. After handing over Marco's phone, Pedro stepped back and took his seat. Marco powered on his intentionally turned-off phone, glancing at over 15 missed calls from their home phone. Frustrated with himself, Marco dialed their residence."Hello, where's Letta?" Marco inquired when Desi answered."Madam just entered her room to rest, Sir. Should I connect you to her?" Desi asked, momentarily s
Marco walked back to his private jet after dealing with a few individuals who would now pay for what they had done to him. He sat down and leaned back."Sir, you should rest. For today, we'll return to the hotel and handle the rest tomorrow," Pedro suggested, causing Marco to look at his subordinate."No, especially with what we still have to resolve. I want all of this to be over as soon as possible. I really need to meet Letta," Marco said, his last words sounding like a whisper, indicating how much he needed his wife."But if Sir insists, your condition won't be good," Pedro expressed concern about his boss's well-being."It's not the first or second time you've seen this, is it? Have you ever seen me relax when there are problems I face?" Marco retorted, leaving Pedro silent."But everything can be continued tomorrow, Sir. We just need to handle the remaining matters in Chicago," Pedro suggested again."What about the others?" Marco inquired."It seems the news that has circulated
