Chapter 36 - You've gone too far, Nora!The apartment door opened loudly. Samuel entered with quick steps, his breathing was heavy, his clothes were still damp and his body was trembling not because of the cold, but because of the anger he had been holding in.Nora was sitting on the sofa. As soon as she saw Samuel enter, her face brightened. She smiled at Samuel."Samuel! You're finally home. I was so worried."Samuel didn't answer. The man's gaze was so intense."What's wrong, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that?" Nora asked, getting up and approaching Samuel. "Wait, why are your clothes wet? What happened to you?"PLAK!A hard slap landed on Nora's right cheek. "Shut up, Nora," Samuel said softly. Nora froze instantly."Stop pretending to care. I already know everything.""W-what do you mean?" asked Nora nervously."Why did you poison me, Nora? WHY?!" snapped Samuel, his eyes widening. "Why did you have to mix stimulants into my drink?!"Nora's face immedia
Rebecca took a slow breath. Her body was still soaking wet, hair sticking to her cheeks. She looked deeply at Samuel, trying to contain all the feelings she had buried."So... you're going to keep quiet about what you feel?" he asked softly.Rebecca still did not answer. She just stared intently, her lips pressed tightly together."Tell me, Rebecca!" Samuel continued to urge Rebecca.Rebecca sighed softly, then whispered, "Liam is... Reno's daddy, Mr. Samuel."Samuel stiffened. "What did you say?""For five years, Liam was by my side. When you went back to Nora. Announcing to the whole world that she was your wife. Doctor Liam who has always given me warmth in these five years. When I had sex with him, I didn't want to stop. I wanted to continue having my body touched by him," Rebecca said without pause, her voice trembling."ENOUGH!" snapped Samuel."Why, don't you want to know how my relationship with Doctor Liam is going?" Rebecca smiled sarcastically."And you're in love with him?
Hurried footsteps echoed in the basement parking lot. Bani, Samuel's personal assistant, almost fell over when he found his master lying on the cold floor, sweat soaking the man's body, Samuel's face looking deathly pale."Mr. Samuel? Oh my, sir!" Bani immediately crouched down, gently shaking Samuel's shoulders.Samuel squirmed softly, his lips twitching. "Rebecca, my wife, help me."Bani was wide-eyed. He immediately knew something was wrong. He touched Samuel's forehead, and it felt hot. Samuel was breathing heavily, his gaze blank. Quickly, Bani pulled his master towards the car."Hang in there, sir. I'll take you to a safe place," he said as he carried Samuel's body into his black car.Instead of taking his master to the hospital, Bani detoured to Rebecca's small apartment.30 Minutes Later - Rebecca's ApartmentKnock! Knock! Knock!A loud knock on the door made Rebecca get up from the sofa. She peeked through the door, surprised to see Assistant Bani's panicked face."Rebecca...
At eight o'clock in the evening, raindrops drenched the windows of Samuel's luxury apartment. Amidst the sound of the television left on without being watched, there was a loud knock on the door. Samuel glanced at the wall clock. "Who's here at this time of night?" he muttered as he walked to the door. As soon as the door was opened, a long-haired woman stood in the doorway, her face wet with rainwater and tears. Who else but Nora. "Samuel..." sobbed the woman, Nora immediately hugged the man's body tightly Samuel was a little surprised, but didn't immediately refuse. He let Nora hug him for a moment. "Nora, what's wrong with you?" "I'm still upset about being kicked out," Nora said between sobs. "Sindy... your sister. She dared to kick me out of the apartment like I was nothing! Hiks~" Samuel sighed. He looked at the woman who had been with him for five years. "I'm sorry about that. But it's better that you don't live there anymore. Didn't I explain to you earlier about my f
"Rebecca, what's wrong with your neck? Who's been kissing your neck?" asked Liam sharply, the man's eyes immediately fixated on the reddish stains on Rebecca's smooth skin. Rebecca panicked starting to look panicked. But the woman immediately took a breath and tried to act calm. "Ah, this..." She quickly looked away, covering her neck with her hair. "Last night I got a mosquito bite. It was so itchy that I scratched too hard and it left a mark." Liam instead looked at Rebecca with a suspicious look. "Mosquito bite marks look like kiss marks, huh?" Rebecca chuckled, she was a girl trying to change the subject. "You're overreacting Liam. Don't get prejudiced just yet. If it's not a mosquito bite. Then, whose bite marks?" Liam looked down, let out a long breath. "Sorry. I was too quick to accuse. I was just afraid of losing you, Becca. You know yourself, I've been trying so hard all this time waiting for you to accept my love." Rebecca looked at the man. She felt guilty, bu
That afternoon, Samuel sat in the corner of a café not far from Rebecca's apartment. His hands fiddled with the coffee cup that he hadn't touched. His eyes stared blankly at the street, his mind frantic. "Rebecca, if Reno proves to be my son. Then you have no right to reject me," Samuel muttered. Not long after, Bani came with quick steps. He immediately sat in front of Samuel. "Sorry to be late, Mr. Samuel. The traffic is pretty bad this afternoon." Samuel handed him a small plastic bag containing several strands of hair. And Samuel's hair too. It was kept separate from Reno's hair. "Here," he said briefly. "Do the DNA test as soon as possible. I want the results out tomorrow." Bani frowned. "Whose hair is this, Mr. Samuel?" "The boy from the airport," Samuel replied quietly. "He's Rebecca's son. I feel like that boy is my son too. But still, I need reassurance. If he is indeed my son, then I will bring Rebecca and Reno home. And Rebecca will have no more reason to reject
