At that moment, from out of nowhere, an older man appeared, leading his 10-year-old son. They pushed through the crowd in front of the emergency room. As soon as they saw the lifeless body, the man grabbed his son's hand and ran towards it, then hugged the lifeless body and cried out."My wife! How could you leave me and our son so early?"The man's voice trembled as he cried, while the child sobbed loudly. The cries jolted Axel awake, and he raised his blank face to look at the man hugging the lifeless body. The man also looked back at Axel, both wearing expressions of indescribable astonishment."Who are you, and why were you crying for my wife?" A man asked in confusion."What do you mean? Your wife?" Axel's words left the man equally baffled. What was going on here? He suddenly felt disoriented."Mommy, please don't leave me." The voice of a child caught Axel and the man's attention. Upon realizing that the child was not Henry, Axel's confusion deepened. So, that wasn't Daisy. Axe
"How are you?" Rosa asked when she saw Mrs. Mia's pale face.Mrs. Mia couldn't say anything when suddenly the police appeared."Rosa Taylor and Mia Wilson, you both are under arrest for conspiracy to commit murder. Please come with us," declared the stern police officer."We haven't done anything!" Mrs. Mia immediately denied the accusation, while Rosa was still trying to grasp the situation."What you said has been recorded—enough evidence to charge you both before the law," Amelia arrogantly proclaimed, holding up a recording device for them to see."Please come with us," the police officer requested a second time."I haven't done anything wrong." Mrs. Mia continued to deny the accusation as she was led away by the police.It was only then that Rosa realized she was being arrested. Not wanting to go to jail, Rosa used her strength to push the police officer and run out of the coffee shop. The police officer chased after her, and unfortunately, something terrible happened. While runn
It is currently 8 o'clock in the evening at a luxurious and upscale restaurant.Axel Smith completely dislikes the prevailing atmosphere in this private room. The conceit and hypocrisy of everyone around him really made him nauseous. Axel wants to leave as soon as possible, but he keeps pondering without finding a valid reason to persuade his father to allow him to go. Therefore, Axel reluctantly sits here, gritting his teeth, enduring the performance of unwilling actors who are engrossed in acting out a comedy play."We should choose a really auspicious day to organize the wedding for the young ones," Ryan Patel, a man, said, disrupting the peaceful and monotonous atmosphere and creating a sense of tension as well as generating excitement.Everyone ceased eating and drinking, their gazes directed towards the man who had just spoken. While most people focused on listening, eagerly anticipating, Axel wore a bewildered expression on his face. Observing Axel's reaction, Ryan turned to Mi
Rosa had just run out the door when she saw Axel getting ready to get in the car and leave the restaurant."Axel, wait a minute." Rosa used all her strength to scream.Hearing the call, Axel stopped his action and turned to look at Rosa, who was hastily approaching him.Rosa, who had just approached Axel, quickly spoke:"Axel, I'm really sorry for what happened. But please come back.""If you're running after me just to ask for something trivial like coming back, forget about it," Axel coldly interrupted."Axel, please don't be like this. Let's discuss and resolve whatever issues we have together, okay?" Rosa pleaded earnestly, trying to persuade him. However, Axel refused to listen any further and calmly got into the car.Rosa tried to hold onto Axel's hand, but he pushed her away.The car door slammed shut right in front of Rosa, causing her to startle. Immediately after, Rosa forcefully banged on the car door, repeatedly demanding:"Axel, open the door!"Unfortunately, Axel was det
"Axel. Do you dare to bet with me?" Rosa haughtily repeated.Rosa felt exhilarated as she successfully struck a blow to Axel's pride. Rosa believed that in front of his friends, Axel wouldn't be able to reject her suggestion. If Axel hesitates, Rosa believes that Axel's friends will stand by her side and, when they speak up, they will urge Axel to accept and comply with Rosa's request. Prior to this encounter, Rosa had messaged Axel's friends, seeking their help in persuading Axel. And true to Rosa's calculations, Axel's friends showed immediate interest upon hearing about this betting situation."Axel, if you're a true man, then accept the challenge," Dion said, aiming to provoke Axel."That's right, Axel. This seems interesting. We'll also participate," Zane added, turning to look at the others. "What do you guys think?""Great idea, Zane. Count me in as well. If Axel wins the bet, I'll give him my newly purchased car," Tom declared loudly."As for me, I'll cover everything that Axe
Filled with confidence and arrogance, Axel strode towards the girl whom Rosa had designated as the target of their bet."Daisy, table number eight is calling for service. You go there.""Yes." Daisy, the girl assigned the task, began to move. She headed towards table number 8, coincidentally passing by Axel. A gentle touch between their arms suddenly caused Axel to stand frozen for a moment. A familiar sensation rushed through Axel's mind and heart. When Axel snapped back to reality, Daisy had already moved away from him. Axel quickly turned his head to look at Daisy, and without hesitation, he took steps towards her."Hey, waitress!" Axel called out to get Daisy's attention; she was standing by table number 8, waiting for the customers to place their orders.Thinking that she wasn't being called, Daisy didn't react or respond to Axel."I'm talking to you. Can't you hear?" Axel attempted to regain Daisy's attention once again by raising the volume of his voice."At the same time, the
After a few seconds of silence, the kiss came to an end. Daisy looked around and noticed everyone buzzing with conversation and clearly waiting for something to happen. She realized that both she and Axel had become the center of attention.Daisy's heart was pounding, but there was no shyness or embarrassment in her blue eyes. Instead, a fiery anger radiated from her gaze. That kiss had crossed boundaries, invading Daisy's personal space in a ruthless manner.Everyone patiently waited for Daisy's reaction. But contrary to their expectations that she would burst with happiness at Axel's confession, she appeared furious and immediately confronted Axel about his actions."What the hell did you just do? How dare you kiss me without my consent?" Daisy exclaimed angrily.Sensing Daisy's agitation and fearing that people might suspect something, Axel suggested calmly to Daisy:"Come on, sweetheart, don't be mad. Everyone is watching." As Axel attempted to stroke Daisy's chubby cheek, she fli
8 a.m. in Axel Smith's private officeAxel is sitting comfortably in a plush chair, holding a glass of red wine, and his eyes are quietly immersed in the beautiful scenery outside the window. The space is filled with a sense of tranquility, but suddenly, a gentle knocking sound disrupts the serene atmosphere.Axel, with a surprised expression, blinks and turns his head towards the door."Please come in." Axel hurriedly speaks, immediately resuming a serious demeanor for work.The door opens, revealing a polite man dressed in a minimalist suit yet exuding an air of elegance."I've come to report," the man says with a deep and confident tone, standing across from Axel."Speak up then," Axel demanded.Axel remains seated in his position, trying not to show any impatience."Sir, this is the result of the investigation," the man says, his voice warm and resolute. "For now, I can only gather basic information. To delve deeper, more time will be required. Therefore, I ask for your patience a
