Our Agreement

Keith Aldebrando has just set foot back to his hometown—Rose city—after spending six years preparing to become a leader of the Aldebrando mafia family in Italy. It was a little difficult to convince his grandfather when he decided to return to Rose city. His grandfather had thought that the reason for returning to his hometown was because he was no longer interested in inheriting his grandfather's position. Finally, after going through a long debate, his grandfather agreed on the condition that he would take care of representatives of the Aldebrando group in Rose city which he happily accepted.Because of that reason, he was here, making a cup of cappuccino ordered by a young woman in her mid-twenties who has always been his regular customer—Naila Chandelier—while making the oak-shaped latte art decoration that has always been her favourite. Wearing his business smile, he delivered the order himself to Naila, who was waiting for him, before returning to his job serving ot

A week had passed since Marie proposed to him. Fully supported by his desire to carry out his plan to control the Hermann Co., he finally accepted the proposal on the condition that their marriage would be held on a small scale, which Marie agreed without thinking twice. Maybe that woman also thought the same thing as him. All marriage matters ranging from wedding gown and suits, places, invited guests—everything was handed over to him because the woman's busyness made it impossible for her to take the time to take care of it, so he had a headache because he never took care of this kind of thing. Usually, he would leave the task to Alan or Aura. His two confidant always managed to do their job quickly without complaining, creating a feeling of admiration for both of them now.Over and over again, he had asked Marie's decision, and the woman's answer remained the same, making him give up. Th

That noon, it rained heavily, hence she—who originally planned to have lunch at a restaurant with an open roof, was forced to change her place to her usual bistro near her office, which served a lunch menu that tasted very tasteless on her tongue now. Whereas in the past she always bought the food at this place. Whether for her breakfast, her lunch, or her dinner. But now, all she just wanted to eat was Keith's food which always managed to whet her appetite.Because of that, she only ordered a glass of mix-fruit juice for her lunch menu. At least, it was much better than having to torture her tongue to eat that bland food.In front of her, Patricia was slicing the grilled chicken she ordered and stared at her in amazement when she saw her lunch menu."Are you on diet?""Yes," she lied. "I gained two kilograms today.""As most people say, the diet resolution will only last for three days. Like me

"What you are wearing now is still too formal. Change to the other one."Marie waved her hand, putting on a sour look as he had just finished changing into a semi-formal outfit that he thought would be suitable for attending a large scale family event. He felt a bit nervous actually, considering that since their marriage, he had never visited his wife's extended family. And today he had the opportunity to find out what the Hermann family looked like. The woman seldom talked about her family to this day. Only once did the woman talk about her family, and it was only the matter of inviting his father-in-law and his wife's cousin to their wedding. No more than that. Because of this reason, he welcomed the golden opportunity to find out the background of Hermann's family one by one, while looking for ways to take over the company from the current owner of the company, James Hermann."It's the tenth time you've said the same thing

At first glance, he realized that Alfred was struggling to stop himself from laughing when he heard the sarcasm of his daughter's reply, while the old woman suddenly glared sharply at Marie who instead challenged her. "Insolent granddaughter!"This was the first time he had seen a soap opera in front of his eyes, and to be honest, he was not enjoying it at all. He was even amazed by Marie who could casually respond to everyone's insults there. Maybe because for that woman, all the insults he heard earlier were nothing new. "Good afternoon," he said, taking the initiative to try to reconcile the chaotic atmosphere that had occurred
