Harvest smiled after contacting Damian through Luca. He then looked at the figure who was now sitting in the chair with his head bowed. Harvest looked at the semi-conscious Jovan. Jovan had lost a lot of blood. Although his wounds were treated, he hadn't eaten anything since yesterday and that left him weak and his consciousness between presence and absence at that moment.
"Who would have thought that I would meet you again." Harvest pushed the head of Jovan who looked completely helpless at the moment.Harvest chuckled, he seemed to be having fun. There were many benefits he got from yesterday's tragedy. A new deal with Damian, mending his broken relationship, being able to keep Selena in his place for a while, and now, he had discovered a new fact about the man in front of him."I've contacted Damian, he must be on his way here by now. Oh, I'm so curious about his reaction to what I've got," Harvest muttered as he strolled nearby, indirectly showing his power."Alright, then where is Selena now?" Damian calmed himself down, looked at Axel for a moment and then looked at Harvest who was about to answer his question. "Oh, Selena's not here. Selena is at the hospital in the city center. She had to undergo more serious treatment after she tried to escape and she got some pretty serious injuries," Harvest explained. Damian frowned. He was quite suspicious of what Harvest said. As long as Selena was with him, Selena wouldn't try to escape to the point of hurting herself. Selena might indeed try, binding the meaning of her life so far is indeed working on her desires. But if it comes to hurting herself, so far Selena hasn't done it. Harvest himself looks relaxed saying it. As if it was not a serious thing. Of course, it was a consideration that Harvest had done too. "Are you playing games with me now?" Damian looked sharply at Harvest. "What kind of game am I playing with you right now? It's obvious that I'm helping you
Selena opened her eyes, she felt her head was more dizzy than ever. And she sat up slowly while holding her head. Her eyes glanced around the room which was already different from what she remembered. She blinked her eyes as she frowned. "Where else would this be..." Selena hissed softly while gently massaging her head. Selena then looked straight ahead. Where there was a mirror. On her temple was a bandage that she could still remember. But on the corner of her forehead, she found a new bandage. She was sure she hadn't been injured at all before, but instead she had gotten a new injury unknowingly. "Eh? When did I get hurt? I didn't do anything," she muttered in astonishment. And again like that time, the door opened as soon as she woke up. She could see Harvest again coming in just as Selena woke up. Selena looked at Harvest who was now smiling as he approached her. Of course for Selena this was very suspicious. How Harvest seemed to be watching her and knew wh
"How are you feeling? Your fever's gone down, huh?" Damian chuckled softly as he looked at Selena who was sitting on the floor with her head turned up towards him. Selena showed her surprise that she was now seeing Damian again. She remembered how Harvest had asked her if she chose between Damian or Harvest, and immediately Selena would choose Damian given the heinous things Harvest had done to her.Harvest gave her a new wound, which was enough to scare her a little with his strange behavior. But she didn't expect Harvest to actually send her back to Damian. Although she didn't know where she was now, in a plain room with only a few chairs. The room looked deserted and quiet. "It's a shame you're not in the best of shape right now. But that's okay, I'll think carefully about what entertainment I deserve," Damian murmured. "What do you mean?" Selena wrinkled her forehead, she tried to be calm even though her voice sounded shaky as if she was afraid of who was in f
"I'm waiting for you. Always. I've always waited for you." Selena said as she tried to hold back her tears from crying again. "I needed time. I'm trying to speed things up," Axel replied. "You should have replied to the email I sent you. Everything would have been faster if you'd replied and said you'd do the exchange. Why are you waiting for all this to happen? Ah, I wanted it to end quickly, but since it's come this far, I can't back out either." Damian crossed his arms. Selena sat up while holding her head. She felt her head spin again. She didn't know how she got the new wound, but it was painful and throbbing. Axel was a little worried and panicked when he saw Selena sitting up. Her condition didn't look good at the moment. Not to mention, Selena was injured. He remembered that she took good care of her before they were caught by Harvest and there were no injuries at all that time. "Are you okay? You don't look well right now. What did that crazy bastar
Selena's hand was in Damian's strong grip. Making her grimace softly as she continued to walk after Damian. Because if she didn't walk for just a moment, her hand felt like it would fall out of place, so tightly Damian pulled her hand at that time. While watching the corridor that she didn't recognize, Selena also tried to recognize the place. The place was in fact still unfamiliar to Selena. Arriving at a bedroom, Damian pulled Selena in and threw her on the bed. And Selena was literally thrown onto the bed and turned to Damian with her feelings still affected by Axel. She looked sad, so she didn't try to fight Damian. "What do you want now?" Selena held her arm with her other hand. "You know very well what I want. But, since I'm being kind to you right now, seeing your condition, I won't do it." Damian snorted, as if he was holding back at the moment. Selena then fell silent as she glanced around the room. She still remembered
A sudden romantic dinner with a mobster and businessman of a legal and illegal organization at the same time seems to be a strange thing. Selena couldn't believe what she was seeing from the start and didn't hold out much hope for that little event. However, now hope appeared. Not hope for a romantic dinner. She rather hoped that nothing bad would happen in that event that made no sense to her. And her bad feeling was confirmed as soon as she sat down at one of the tables with Damian. And the curtain opened, revealing another lower room, the room where Axel was being kept at the time. Selena spontaneously got up from her seat. Damian immediately glanced at Selena and smiled. Selena's reaction was exactly what he wanted. And he watched as Selena stood up with a frown and watched Axel. Axel who was leaning back with a blank stare and unaware of his presence. "Why... why are we here? Why does there have to be glass looking directly at him? Why does he have to stay t
Selena's heart beat faster, very fast. Her breathing was also labored as she heard what Damian had said. Her mind went blank and her gaze weakened, staring at Axel who looked quite panicked and agitated. Axel's sitting position has changed. Previously his hands were tied behind his back, but now his hands are on the handle of the chair. The seat has also changed. This indicated that Damian had done this on purpose and everything had been planned. "Arrghh!!!" Axel's roar could be heard clearly in the room. The sound of his roar managed to silence Selena for a few seconds. Plus, Axel continued to roar afterwards, complaining of the pain he had just experienced a few seconds ago. In that second Selena actually saw what the person with Axel was doing. The person was actually using a tool that Selena didn't know for sure what it was, but it was actually able to pull the nails that were attached to the skin quickly. Selena's body trembled violently, she then looke
"Crat!" "Rghh!" "Crat!" "Rrgghh!!!" Axel's voice actually accompanied Selena who was eating. She ate as fast as she could until the plate that originally contained a beef steak with some fries was gone. And Selena gulped down her drink so quickly, she could barely swallow her food before. Her hands trembled as she put down the empty glass and she briefly felt her chest ache from having to eat food she hadn't chewed properly. Then, she looked at Damian's figure who looked satisfied to see how Selena finished her food well. "Stop!" Damian immediately stopped his previous command. And Selena's tears fell again. She wiped them away with her wrist, then looked at Axel who was struggling. He was certainly in pain after getting several whips on his legs. Axel tried desperately not to show his pain, unfortunately to no avail. Then, the servant entered the room, bringing some desserts. Which was when the waiter served the desserts, Selena stared at the
Without lingering in the room full of people, Axel took Selena out of the room, both of them standing on a balcony. They were the only two there. Selena seemed relieved to be able to meet Axel and Axel quickly found her. "Wow, this is such a relief. Jian just left me as soon as a man approached her, whispered and then pulled her hand away. How rude! Does he have no manners? Jian is with me, right? He should have at least asked permission and said goodbye!" chided Selena. Selena expressed her frustration. While Axel looked at her steadily, he stared at Selena as if he would never look at her again or even never look at her at all. The smile on his face painted a picture of how happy he was to see Selena on a show like this. "Tsk, bitch!" Selena was still grumbling to herself. Her arms raised, Selena took a sip of the drink she had taken from the waiter who had brought her a drink. Then, she frowned as she stared at her glass in confusion. S
After rejecting Axel, Selena brooded in her room with the television on. She ate the food she had just bought while thinking carefully about what she had said to Axel. What she felt was that she was different from her old self. However, she also felt that she was the same as before. She was just an opinionated girl who was firm in her decisions. Although sometimes she always felt like she needed someone to be by her side. This time, things were a little different. She didn't have to work hard and think about money. "I'm bored..." muttered Selena. Selena spent her time watching some movies she had wanted to see before, while eating snacks. She had been eating a lot lately, but didn't realize that she had gained weight. Her cheeks were even thicker than when she left Damian's mansion. At midnight, Jian returned to the apartment. She found Selena had not slept and was engrossed in her snacks and watching. "You're not sleeping? You're even eating snacks at this
Derek's words managed to make Damian think about his words on the way home. . How could he not? Derek had mentioned that there was something wrong with him that Selena had left him. And what was wrong with him? "What's wrong with me?" Damian asked as he glanced at Luca who was next to him, sitting and looking questioning as usual anywhere and anytime. Luca turned to Damian with a hint of doubt on his face. He glanced at the street for a moment, thinking about what kind of answer he could give Damian. "Actually, it's just because of our different backgrounds. We run a legal company with an illegal business, so the way we deal with the problem is certainly not so morally minded. Selena, on the other hand, is just an innocent citizen who probably doesn't even know where and how businessmen like you operate," Luca explained.Damian could understand Luca's statement clearly even though Luca didn't say it in detail. Clearly, Selena was probably more informed and underst
Damian held Selena's clothes in his mansion. He inhaled until he found the scent he usually found from Selena. It seemed crazy, but that was Damian's current state. He's crazy because he hasn't found Selena for the past few days. His obsession makes him now have to vent his longing for Selena using unusual means. Like this moment. Selena's abandoned clothes are the only thing he intentionally uses to fulfill his own fantasies. He longed for that slender body in his hands. He desperately wanted to hold her again like she was his. "Where are you, Selena? Where exactly are you hiding from me?" Damian growled softly, closing his eyes quite tightly, hinting at his current frustration. "Uh... Ohh..." In the bathroom, the sound of him moaning could be heard. Trying to vent all his longing alone. He missed her unilaterally. He had no idea that everything he did would be connected to Selena and haunt her. Having managed to let go of everything he wanted to let go of,
"It makes no difference if you keep seeing me!" Selena grumbled as Damian interrupted her first day of freedom, even somewhat forcing her to eat ice cream together that afternoon. Damian accepted two ice creams. They were near the ice cream food truck and sat on a street bench. Damian thrust the ice cream at Selena, watching Selena who was still pouting as if she was reluctant to see him at all."It's obviously different," Damian replied as he savored the ice cream from the cup he was holding after Selena accepted another cup. "It's the same as us not breaking up." "Did we break up? Did we have a committed relationship before?" "Not really, anyway." Selena snorted as Damian said something that left her cornered and a little embarrassed that their understanding of their relationship was different. Selena looked at the ice cream in front of her. It reminded her of when Damian did some bad things to her. However, she didn't feel scared or traumatized either
"Selena!" Angela's joyful scream greeted Selena as she entered a sizable and luxurious house. She was also greeted by the servants who looked after the house. Selena looked confused at Angela and the servants who welcomed her. Even so, she smiled slightly to see Angela so cheerfully welcoming her. All Selena could feel was that the little girl didn't know anything, she was still naive about this. "Hello," greeted Selena kindly to her sister. "Sorry, Angela's attitude is too neutral to have anyone to hate. It's different with Arsella. Arsella... I hope you understand," Derek said with a subtle smile at Selena. "We're the same age, we're no longer children and we're adults. I understand." Derek was a little disappointed when he looked at Selena who didn't seem to have any intention of a close relationship, and was probably just using her as a foothold to get out of Damian's mansion. Even so, he thought this was better than having to go through Damian and
'She doesn't want me anymore.' Damian looked directly into Selena's eyes, trying to find a lie but what he found was her earnestness. Something that made him feel angry, upset, even visibly disappointed. "Please, I just want to be free. You took away my freedom all this time," Selena pleaded. "I love you, that's why I did it," Damian replied quickly. To hell with prestige and shame, Damian was currently using every means possible to keep Selena by his side, to keep her from going anywhere. And if Selena was a gentle and understanding person, just as she wanted to stay because of the child she was carrying, then the way he had to use was to gain her understanding. The moment Damian spoke of love, Selena frowned. It was as if she no longer believed in love. And what she saw in the ring Damian was currently offering were handcuffs that would continue to shackle her life. She had been oppressed all this time under Damian.
Damian frowned in disbelief at what he heard from Selena's mouth. Damian was quite provoked by what Selena said. Selena's recent behavior had indeed managed to make him feel annoyed. But considering her alarming condition, Damian tried to restrain himself. Now, in his eyes Selena was getting too much. "What makes you so brave to say that? Is it because you know who your father is and you feel that there is someone who will help you? You feel that your father will treat you well?!" Damian raised his voice even higher. For a moment, there was silence between them. Selena turned her face away, avoiding Damian's gaze. She still seemed unsure of her decision, but this seemed to make her even more certain. Selena uncovered the blanket on her lap. "Maybe so. The only one I can trust to protect me is my father. You should be self-aware, how can I trust you for what you've done so far?" Selena got up from her bed. She seemed to be about to avoid Damian who she still
For now, all Selena needs to think about is her health. She just needs to rest for the next few days. After being discharged from the hospital, Selena rested in the company of Damian who moved all his work to her room. Damian is currently like an overworked husband, so even when he is in the room, he is still working. "What's wrong, do you want a snack?" Damian realized that Selena was now staring at him steadily. "No, I was just thinking about something else," Selena replied. "Don't think about other things, just think about your health first!" Damian said. "I'm no longer pregnant now. You don't have to be responsible anymore," Selena retorted. Selena's thoughts made Damian stop his eyes at a word on the document he was reading. It just so happened that the word was 'disconnect' although there was a follow-up, 'work'. What a coincidence that Selena was thinking the same thing. "What are you really thinking about?" Damian lifted his face and looked dire
