Renata woke up, the glare from the lamplight piercing into her retinas. She held her head, which felt heavy, and tried to get up."You're awake, girl," Davero said."Father? Bastian can't be dead, can he?" sobs Renata.Davero just smiled and rubbed Renata's head."The search is still on; no matter what, I'll keep looking for him," said Davero."I have to go; I have to find her," Renata said, getting up, and Davero tried to hold her back."No Rena. Entrust everything to me," Dave said."I have to find him myself to make sure he's alive!" sobbed Renata."You're pregnant, Renata."Deg"Wha-what?""You are pregnant. You're three weeks along; you need to take care of your health as well as your foetus."Tears rolled down her cheeks. "I-I'm pregnant?""Yes," Davero replied. "Entrust everything to me. I will continue to search for Bastian's whereabouts."Dave took Renata into his arms. Renata could only cry bitterly. How could she find out the news of this pregnancy after Bastian's departure

"What happened? Where have you been, Bas? I found the ambulance you were riding in fell into a ravine and exploded."Vincent asked.Bastian recalled the events of a few days ago. He had woken up while in the ambulance. He was still in pain and injured. Bastian kept imagining Renata shooting him with a hateful gaze. Bastian really realised everything. However, a monster who helps human children will still be considered evil and terrible. It's true what Julian said—that he is still so weak. Because his heart still felt indecisive and did not allow him to hurt people, he had to be betrayed and get a painful ending. Actually, Bastian hopes that the shot pierces his heart and he dies right then and there, so it won't be as painful as it is right now.Bastian looks at the ring on his ring finger and takes it off. It was his wedding ring to Renata. Since the beginning of their acquaintance, things have not started off well. It was certain that Renata would always think of him as a monster. Ba

Renata was quite shocked to see the news about Clairy's death. She didn't expect the haughty and arrogant girl to choose to end her life.Renata took out the cellphone that Bastian gave her. Then she made a voice note there, telling her that her fiancé had passed away."Your fiancé is dead; he ended his life. I think he chose to give up on you. Then I have no more rivals. Can I ask you to make me your only wife? You're not a king, so you don't need a concubine. I beg you not to look for another girl. Can I be the only one?"Renata stopped her voice message and sent it to Bastian's contact. She had been doing this all week and hoped that Bastian would receive all her messages. Tears rolled down her cheeks again. Renata hopes to receive news soon that Bastian is safe.Renata looks at her packed suitcase; she will leave for Indonesia tomorrow. But she is still not calm about leaving London before getting news from Bastian.A knock on the door made

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

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
