Poppy immediately removed her blindfold. “What are you doing here?”The man smiled broadly. “Return to your room. Robin will surprise you. However, it appears that he is unable to do so right now.”“I do not want to.” Poppy refused. She is very curious about the surprise that her husband will give her.“Oh, come on. Don't you want to help me?”Poppy looked at him curiously, trying to figure out what he was going to do. However, she couldn't tell from his innocent expression. That individual is a skilled manipulator capable of tricking numerous individuals, not just her.“Please help me this time.” He asked.Poppy sighed but eventually gave in to his demands. She had to restrain her curiosity tonight and return to her room... for the sake of her husband.***Robin swallowed when he saw Poppy's handmade cake on the table; he can't wait to try it. The maids are busy preparing wine, flower vases, and candles nearby.They are preparing a surprise for his wife on the rooftop of the mansion
‘Damn!’ Robin's mind panicked, and he focused on the almost-open button on his shirt.His hand slipped quietly under the table as he moved forward. He quickly straightened the button on his shirt while looking at his wife, hoping that his flaws would not be noticeable.She does not care about his button. He is perfect for her.“You should eat more, Robin. You need to regain your energy.”Poppy stretched half of her roast meat onto Robin's plate. She began to pay attention to her husband so that he could only focus on her, temporarily forgetting about his sadness.He even asked me to hit him. Poppy thought sadly, thinking that Robin wanted to feel the pain in his body so that the wound in his heart could be slightly healed.“You should eat more.”Robin returned the meat to Poppy's plate. He also wants to demonstrate that he has changed, becoming a man his wife can rely on. Not a whiny, drunken man like the men on Solterra Island.“No, Robin. You are the one that requires more energy. I
Antonio immediately corrected his words when he noticed Donna's flushed cheeks. “Mr. Robin's office is being used by your brother and his colleagues! The basement is also filled with prisoners and police!” He was certain Donna would think negatively.“Yes ... yes, sir!” Donna snarked, glaring bitterly at Robin's right hand.Antonio ignored Donna and went in to meet Poppy. “Ma’am, Mr. Robin is already waiting in the dining room.”“Wait a minute, Antonio. It's almost done.” Poppy quickly decorated the cake.“Let Mr. Matteo continue. Mr. Robin must eat now.” Antonio pointed out that Robin hadn't eaten in days.Poppy immediately recalls it. She washed her hands and then removed the apron. Mr. Matteo, please help me finish it.She immediately followed Antonio, who walked first. Her steps were quick enough to keep up with Antonio.“You haven't treated your face yet?”“Later, it will heal itself. I'm used to being hurt like this.”Poppy's face furrowed with sadness. Antonio rarely takes care
Robin washed his face roughly until the water from the tap soaked his t-shirt. He was very embarrassed after seeing his reflection in the bathroom mirror.This is the first time in his life that his appearance appears to be totally chaotic. And he kissed Poppy with the look of a homeless man! No wonder she compared him to the men from Solterra Island.“Damn... damn...!” Robin hit the glass with minimal force, leaving it intact.His face flushed again as he remembered how he cried sadly as a child. However, a smile spread across his lips.Poppy loves him, doesn't despise him, and doesn't fear him. She also stated that she risked her life to be reunited with him.Robin grimaced and brushed his teeth slowly, making sure the alcohol smell was gone. He then whistled while wetting his body in the warm shower, enjoying the fresh sensation that made him even happier.Despite the numerous problems he is facing, his wife's happiness makes him feel so good. His guilt over Rafael's death and the
“I love you, Robin...”Robin suddenly remembered what his mother had said when she last expressed her affection. Robin hasn't heard the word in a long time.No. Robin frequently hears it from women, but this time it is different. Poppy's words of love sounded different than those spoken by his mother or other women.His heart was suddenly filled with warmth, accompanied by a thrilling vibration in his chest and a strange sensation that tickled his stomach. He swallowed, expressionless, unsure how to respond.In fact, he knew he'd say the same thing when he gave his wife a wedding ring. However, his tongue was stiffening, preventing him from responding directly.“I'm sorry. I should not have said this now.”Poppy turned away with flushed cheeks. She intended to gradually open Robin's heart to her, but instead she was reckless in expressing her emotions.She became anxious after seeing his reaction. Will Robin refuse and kick her out again?Robin remained silent, as if he was gathering
“Come on, get up... I am not strong enough to pull you. Use some of your energy to get up.” Poppy wrapped Robin's arm around her shoulder. Her face flushed when she attempted to stand up while supporting Robin's strong body.After struggling to get Robin to sit on the edge of the bed, she took him mineral water. Robin gently shook his head, removing the glass from his mouth.“Listen to me and then make your decision after careful consideration. I will appreciate your decision whether to stay with me or leave. But—” Robin's voice caught in his throat. “But please do not hate me.”“No, I won't hate you.”Robin looked down, staring at his trembling right hand on his thigh. He continues to feel invisible pain as a result of the evil hand's actions. Every time he saw his hand, his chest was torn apart with regret.He looked at his wife. She still appears calm. He was sure that she would soon look at him with hatred.Poppy already knows what he wants to say. She waited patiently for his mi
