LOGINCHAPTER 107Reno arrived in Europe near nightfall. After completing the hotel check-in process, he did not even have time to rest. His suit was still on his body as he stood near the window of his room, staring at the unfamiliar city lights that somehow felt so close to one single purpose.He grabbed his phone and immediately called Ken.“Ken,” Reno said without preamble. “Track Jessy’s address.”On the other end, Ken was silent for a few seconds. “Young Master, are you sure?”“Yes,” Reno answered firmly. “She may be using the name Elara.”“Alright,” Ken replied quickly. “I’ll try now.”Reno paced back and forth inside the hotel room. His hands slipped into his trouser pockets, his jaw tightening. A few minutes felt longer than usual.Less than ten minutes later, his phone vibrated again.“I’ve got it,” Ken said. “Apartment address under the name Elara Wilson. I’m sending it now.”“Send it,” Reno replied shortly.As soon as the address came in, Reno grabbed the keys to the rental car.
SEASON 2 — CHAPTER 106Morning at the Wilson residence felt quiet. Reno stood in front of the wardrobe, neatly folding clothes and placing them into a large suitcase lying open on the floor. His expression was flat, his movements quick and orderly, as if he wanted to finish everything as soon as possible.The bathroom door opened. Bella came out with her hair still half wet, wearing a bathrobe. She stopped the moment she saw the suitcase on the floor.“Where are you going?” Bella asked, her eyebrows knitting together.Reno did not answer immediately. He continued folding a shirt and putting it into the suitcase.“Reno,” Bella repeated, her tone sharper this time. “I asked you, where are you going?”Reno partially closed the suitcase, then turned around. “To Europe.”Bella fell silent for a few seconds. “To Europe?” she repeated softly. “For what?”“A business trip,” Reno replied shortly.Bella crossed her arms. “What business?”Reno pulled the suitcase zipper halfway. “Office matters.
SEASON 2 — CHAPTER 105The European sky that afternoon looked bright, even though the cold wind still felt biting. Jessy had just stepped out of the Ellanan Group meeting building. Her face looked tired, but her mind felt slightly lighter after the long and exhausting meeting.She walked slowly along the sidewalk, intending to find a warm cup of coffee before returning to the temporary apartment she had rented. After only a few steps, someone called her name in a hesitant yet surprised tone.“Jessy?”Jessy stopped. She turned toward the voice. Her eyebrows lifted slightly when she saw a man standing a few meters away from her.“Bastian?” Jessy said, making sure.The man smiled broadly. “Oh my God, it really is you.”Jessy let out a small laugh in disbelief. “I thought I misheard. You’re here?”Bastian stepped closer, still smiling. “Yes. I live here now. I didn’t expect to run into you in Europe.”Jessy nodded slowly. “Neither did I.”They stood facing each other for a few seconds, ad
The master bedroom of the Wilson residence felt silent. The bedside lamp glowed dimly, casting a warm light that was not entirely comforting. Reno closed the door slowly after making sure the children were already asleep. He walked in carefully, as if his thoughts were still left behind in Shelyn and Elang’s room.When he turned toward the bed, his steps stopped.Bella was already there.She sat on the edge of the bed, wearing a thin black nightgown. Her hair fell loose, her face carefully made up, as if she had been waiting for a long time. Her gaze was fixed directly on Reno.“You took a long time,” Bella said softly.Reno swallowed, then let out a short breath. “The children had trouble sleeping.”Bella smiled faintly. “Now they’re asleep.”Reno nodded. He walked closer, but stopped a few steps away from the bed. His eyes rested on Bella, not with admiration, but with an undisguised confusion.“Why are you dressed like that?” Reno finally asked.Bella tilted her head. “Like what?”
SEASON 2 — CHAPTER 103That night, the children’s bedroom at the Wilson residence felt quieter than usual. Shelyn sat cross-legged on the bed, while Elang leaned against a large pillow. A tablet rested in Elang’s hands, its screen showing Jessy’s face.“Mama,” Shelyn greeted quickly. “We miss you.”Jessy smiled from the screen. She looked tired, but her eyes were gentle. “Mama misses you too.”Elang leaned closer to the screen. “Mama, when will you come pick us up?”Jessy thought for a moment. “When all of Mama’s work here is finished, maybe in a week. We’ll live in Europe again, okay?”Shelyn glanced at Elang, then back at the screen. “Really, Mama?”“Yes,” Jessy answered firmly. “But you have to be patient.”Elang nodded obediently. “We promise not to cause trouble again.”Jessy smiled faintly. “Mama believes you.”Shelyn hesitated, then spoke softly, “Mama… if later Papa and Mama get married, we’ll live together again, right?”Jessy fell silent for a few seconds. Her smile faded sl
SEASON 2 — CHAPTER 102Reno’s car stopped in the yard of the Wilson residence in the late afternoon. Bella took a long breath before getting out. Her face was calm, a faint smile neatly in place, as if everything were fine.As soon as the door opened, the atmosphere inside the house felt different from what she had imagined.Rebecca was sitting in the family room with Shelyn. Samuel was not far away, helping Elang arrange wooden blocks on the floor. No one immediately turned to look when Reno and Bella entered.“Mom, Dad,” Reno greeted.Rebecca glanced over briefly. “Oh, you’re here.”Her tone was flat. She returned her attention to Shelyn. “Slowly, sweetheart. Don’t drop it.”Samuel smiled at Elang. “Try putting this one on top.”Bella stood a little stiffly. “Good afternoon, Mommy… Daddy.”Samuel looked over briefly. “Afternoon.”That was all. No hugs, no congratulations. Bella swallowed, trying to suppress her discomfort.Reno noticed the atmosphere. He reached for Bella’s hand. “L
