“I can’t believe this…”

Vania slammed the file on the table. Her eyes bore into Liora, who sat across from her. “After everything you did, you think we can just accept you back so easily?”

The office fell suddenly silent. Only the ticking of the wall clock could be heard. Liora slowly lifted her head; she looked tired but determined.

“I’m not asking you to believe me at once,” she said calmly. “I just want you to know… I am no longer on Devandra’s side.”

Arga, who had been standing by the window, turned and stared at Liora with suspicion. “You think that’s enough? You come here and speak as if everything can be fixed with one sentence?”

Liora took a long breath. “I know it’s hard to trust. I would probably react the same if I were in your position. But listen to me first—I have a reason why I finally chose to leave Devandra.”

Vania crossed her arms, her voice cold. “A reason? Or just another drama to trap us?”

The tension thickened. Deviana, sitting beside Liora, bowed her hea

    “I can’t do this anymore…”Deviana murmured softly, staring at the cold cup of coffee in front of her. She sat in the corner of a small café, her body slumped, eyes swollen from lack of sleep. Pressure from her staff, her family, and the constant threats had pushed her to the brink of giving up.Her phone vibrated again. A short message arrived:“Let it all go, Deviana. If you quit, your life will go back to normal.”Deviana covered her face with both hands. Tears fell onto the table. “Maybe this is the only way…”---“Deviana?”The voice made her start. She turned and her eyes widened. Standing across from her was Liora—the woman who had lately become the center of media gossip and the shadow of Arga’s past.“You… Liora?” Deviana half stood, her voice full of suspicion. “What are you doing here?”Liora pulled out a chair and sat down calmly. “I know you want to give up. Your face says enough.”Deviana fell silent, her heart racing. “What do you mean?”---Liora folded her arms on the

    “Dev, we need to talk!”The loud voice shattered the still-dim morning. The small meeting room that usually buzzed with energy felt cold now. Some of Deviana’s staff sat with tense faces; a few couldn’t even meet her eyes.Deviana sat at the end of the table, fighting sleep after a sleepless night spent worrying over the ruined office. “Alright,” she said softly. “Say it.”A senior staffer, Aditya, let out a heavy sigh. “We all agree—the situation has become too dangerous. After yesterday’s attack on the office… who can guarantee that tomorrow it won’t be our homes that are targeted?”“That’s right, Ms. Dev,” added Sinta, a young reporter who normally overflowed with enthusiasm. Her eyes were puffy; it was clear she had been crying. “I’m scared. My parents called all night. They told me to stop working here.”Deviana clasped her hands on the table; her heart pounded. “You… want to quit?”Silence hung for a moment, then one by one they bowed their heads.“This isn’t about wanting to or

    “Deviana! Have you seen the news?!”The panicked voice came through the phone. Her personal assistant, Rani, was almost screaming on the other end.Deviana had just stepped out of the car with Dimas after the long drive back from the docks. She froze, nearly dropping her phone. “What news, Rani? Speak clearly!”“Our office… it’s destroyed! Someone—I don’t know who—smashed the windows, wrecked the computers, papers everywhere! Everything’s in chaos!”Deviana’s body went numb, her strength draining. “What?!”Beside her, Dimas instantly grabbed her arm. “What happened?”Deviana lowered the phone, her face pale. “My office… it’s been ransacked.”Without hesitation, Dimas opened the car door. “Let’s go. Now.”---That night, the drive to the office felt endless. Streetlights flashed across the windows as Deviana’s heartbeat raced faster with every passing second.“I suspected they’d pressure you, Dev,” Dimas said, his tone guarded. “After you met Radya, this has to be a warning.”Deviana s

    “He can’t be far!”Dimas sprinted through the port’s narrow passage, the small camera still swinging from his neck. His breath came in ragged bursts, eyes darting across the shadows between stacked containers.Deviana followed close behind, her heels clattering against the concrete. “Dimas! We don’t even know who he is!”“That’s exactly why! We need to know before they catch him!”---Hurried footsteps echoed in the distance. The ragged figure in the worn jacket appeared for a split second, then vanished behind a wall of containers.“He went that way!” Deviana pointed, her body trembling with fear and exhaustion.Dimas grabbed her hand. “Come on, don’t let him slip away!”They ran together, the sea air slicing cold against their skin, heavy with the stench of diesel and rust.---Suddenly, another sound cut through the night—screeching tires, followed by a blinding sweep of headlights.A black SUV barreled into the port. This wasn’t an ordinary vehicle.Deviana froze. “They’re here… D

    “So… what’s the first step?”Deviana sat restlessly in the chair of the archive room. Her hands wouldn’t stop twisting a crumpled tissue, her face pale but her eyes burning with resolve.Dimas lit a cigarette despite the narrow space. “First step, we make them believe you’ve given up. If they think you’re still fighting, the threats will never stop.”“Give up?” Deviana frowned. “But I can’t just sit and do nothing.”“Relax.” Dimas exhaled a thin stream of smoke. “It’s just part of the game. While you pretend to step back, I’ll set a trap on the communication line. We need them to make a move, so we’ll know who’s actually watching.”---Deviana lowered her gaze, thinking hard. “I’m… scared, Dim. You know, they almost killed me last night. My car brakes were cut. If it weren’t for that man who helped me, I’d be dead.”“That man?” Dimas tilted his head. “The former journalist you mentioned?”“Yes. He told me I only had two choices—stay silent, or burn with the rest of them.”Dimas let ou
