Chapter: Chapter 77: RefreshedThe sun has risen from the horizon. The gentle hues from its light spread in the pale blue sky. The beauty from above reflected on the blue sea–the sight that Georgia couldn’t take her eyes off from. Sitting by the floating platform, the woman was enjoying her morning coffee with the pleasing morning scenery. She was taking the sip as slow as she could, as though unbounding herself from the flow of time.She let her shawl covering her upper body, along her wavy hair, to get glided from the salt fresh air. It’s always such moments that Georgia gets reminded that her problems are nowhere big from the nature before her. She should’ve thought of visiting the nearby sea at the headquarters since she has been going there with Primo. Well, maybe, it’s the fact that the sea was so close to the problem that it didn’t cross her mind at all.“Long face in the early morning, seriously?” The familiar voice from her roommate bounced in her ears. Georgia looked up and found Jennifer wearing a red b

Chapter: Chapter 76: Salt AirIt was five in the evening when Primo went back home. And it turned out that he’s not alone with Manuel. He’s with Jennifer, as well. Georgia already had everything prepared, including Primo’s, though he didn’t ask for it. As she waited at the balcony with a cup of tea, the woman who got out of the car made her pause in surprise.“She’s going with us?” Georgia couldn’t help blurting out. The three paced their way to her direction.“Yes. I gave her the ticket instead since Lily can’t make it.” Primo answered as he casted a quick glance at Jennifer who had her signature red dress and waved at her. Georgia waved back, though awkwardly.She hasn’t seen this woman in a while. This was the first time they met after she visited her condominium. But she heard from Primo that she was one of a few who helped to find her at the party. She didn’t even notice her at the party. But then, at some point, she feels like she owes her. And it doesn’t seem bad to have her around. “How’s your leg?” she a

Chapter: Chapter 75: Payback TimeWhile Georgia was enjoying their orders, Primo on the other hand was enjoying the stuff she had shared with him. But it seemed as though the genuine conversation they were having had to be marked when Primo’s phone rang on the table. Two pairs of eyes laid on his phone, as Primo then averted his gaze on Georgia. His face looked like he was asking her permission to answer it.Although it startled the woman for a second at the unexpected gesture, in the end, she just nodded at him while munching the bread in her hand. If Primo were to decide for himself, he wouldn’t bother leaving the phone ringing and just listen to everything that Georgia has to share with him. It just feels so intimate–to know other things about her from her own mouth. But now, damn, someone had to spoil their moment by giving him a fuckass call. Primo grabbed his phone with a subtle disappointed look and then answered the call–which is from Director Kauffman, by the way.“To what do I owe this call, director?” Prim

Chapter: Chapter 74: Calm Amidst StormIt feels like her head is about to burst out with the information overload she got in just a day. A lot is going on–that includes the mayhem Lawrence caused in Primo’s company. In hindsight, they share the same enemy. The only difference is, Georgia is focusing on the past where her father was involved, while Primo is in the present. There was still one thing that she’s yet to know, too–the unfinished sentence Herald said. But now that she urged him to continue what he said earlier, his willingness to share had just dissipated. He refused to say anything when she was begging him to say it. “I don’t know what to do with him anymore…” Georgia’s hand slapped on her forehead. She could feel the stress rising into her head. Together with Primo, they are now pacing their way out of the building. Somehow, some things managed to be enlightened in her head. Unfortunately, consequently, one critical thing was chosen to eat her sanity alive.“You mean, Herald?” Primo asked as they got inside t

Chapter: Chapter 73: Send My RegardsJust by staying where she was at, eavesdropping, Lily managed to fill the gaps she was missing. She doesn’t know what to feel right now. She didn’t know that the gap between her uncle and Chairman Granger was that huge. She was so clueless. She was left behind. She knew nothing, which ended her uncle in this situation–hospitalized.Hearing the fact that her uncle used to do dirty deeds… Lily doesn’t know what to feel about it at all. She doesn’t know how grave that dirt is. And it’s not something that could change her perception of her uncle. She just knew one thing–Herald raised her well and she owes her life to him. Another thing that didn’t escape from her ears as well is the fact that she heard the same thing from CEO Klein. Herald and the latter said the same thing–that Freegal is not an easy opponent. Although she has heard a lot, the downside is she doesn’t know most of it. Like CBF… what… or who are they? It seemed as though what she heard isn’t still the entirety of it.“Nur

Chapter: Chapter 72: Shed of Light“You can say that I was trying to play safe, that's why I left Freegal.” Herald said. Georgia was intently listening to him. Maybe this is about time to really know what she’s missing from her own past. Her eyes fixated on him, while Herald lifted his gaze to the window where the gentle light of the sun directed through the glass, as if he’s reminiscing the past where memories played at the glass window.“Freegal… There’s more to them than you thought you’d know. They are not an easy opponent.” Herald added to which Georgia is already aware of. “But I think you can just do good with Primo behind your back.” He affirmed. Georgia was confused about how to react for a second.“I left Freegal the day your father died because… I have known about something grave–something I never thought they could do.” Herald said. This was not in his plan at all–to associate himself with Musni, particularly Georgia. He never considered reaching out to her except for their first meet where he had to warn h
